Before One More Mile

Before One More Mile Just in a bit, when we see fit We're gonna do that thing that we just can not forget And time it passes fast it just won't last But at the time it does seem that it is so long and vast But quickly it does go away a short time a child I think I'm gonna do it now before one more mile Procrastinate, it'll have to wait I know you want it now yes I know I can relate And time it moves on here then it's gone But you know how I am there's so much that's goin on But quickly it does...

Nature's Altar

Nature's Altar Nature is best, I am so blessed My heart loves to go there every time I face a test And God He is there I know He cares He wraps His arms round me as I talk to Him in prayer When I have done all I can do I will come here to see And I think I'm gonna stay here till my spirit's free Amongst the trees, the falling leaves I can't help feeling good I can't help but to believe And love it abides feels good inside This love it lifts my soul on angels wings I now glide When I have done...

Till My Dying Day

Till My Dying Day God loves us all, the big the small That's what His word tells us He sees the sparrow when it falls And love never dies it just abides That is what I have found He is always by my side Cause He's done everything He can to help us find the way And I think I'm gonna serve Him till my dying day I know His voice, I've made my choice When His spirit is upon me my eyes become moist And God never lies He lives inside I can't wait to see Him when those gates they open wide Cause He's...

4th Of July

4th Of July Oh say can't you hear, our father's mourning cries When you see what's going on in our beautiful land America our beloved where many bled and died God's hedge of protection, seems they don't understand Washington warned us all, if we turned our backs on God And now it is so sad, on our flag some now trod Now while our flag still flies, in the home of the brave Let us join together, turn back to God and be saved Kent Phalen Sign in to see full entry.

Nature's Poet

Nature's Poet He is a poet to the trees And to the wind blowing free And the flowers are his friends As is the sand by the sea They know he writes about them He's a bard to all the birds For them he writes many words The mountain top gives him peace Rhymes are often overheard Reasons to write never cease Often he speaks of the stream Oft' his days are filled with dreams Nature is always singing, A song with a poet's theme To this poet they're clinging One day he won't come again The robin,...

Just Stand (rondeau redouble)

JUST STAND Such is my belief, that I can stand When storms are raging all around me Though I know that I am only a man I know the master of the sea In his words I find sweet peace I can't walk without holding His hand Because of time spent down on my knees Such is my belief, that I can stand How wonderful to know I'm in His plans That He really does care you see I know I can cross over to dry land When storms are raging all around me I know without Him I am weak But I know that He truly...

Sweet, Sweet Song

Sweet, Sweet Song As only a child sings a song, and fills the house all the day long How could my voice ever complain, be it sunshine or be it rain Outside a robin sings along, my life seems filled with lovely song To listen my heart must take pains, to hear every blessed refrain Music does soothe the savage beast, or man's kind heart to say the least May it be the last thing I hear, as my time on earth it draws near Sad if it were ever to cease, I wish only for great increase May it be the...

Little Things

Little Things I love to write about little things About a flower or how a bird sings About a child's smile, a peaceful calm breeze A cloud floating by, a leaf on a tree A rivers sweet song, a strangers kindness A star in the sky, a grapevines goodness A baby's sweet joy, a butterfly's wings A watermelon, the seasons changing A wildflower dancing, the wind in my hair The sun coming up, the birds in the air The thunder roaring, a mighty lion asleep A duckling waddling, a dark empty street The sun...

You Walked With Me Today

You Walked With Me Today Lord I thank you for the little things You do for me each day And I thank you for the beauty You've planted along the way Today as I walked among the trees Oh how the birds did sing I couldn't help believing Lord That today you walked with me When I saw the flowers blooming Lord I thought of you When I saw the white clouds floating Upon a sky of blue When I felt a cool breeze blowing In the heat of the day I couldn't help believing Lord That you walked with me today And...

Feel Thee With Me

Feel Thee With Me Though my heart be so sad, broken hearted Though peace, from all my soul, seems departed My song I will still sing unto thee If I can but still, feel thee with me If I can but still, feel thee with me If no friends appear today at my door If my ship must depart lifes peaceful shore My broken heart it will still love thee If I can but still, feel thee with me If I can but still, feel thee with me If alone I must face this lonesome day If lifes trials bring me to my knees to pray...
