Pass It On

It only takes a spark to get a fire going; And soon all those around can warm up in its glowing. That's how it is with God's love, once you've experienced it.  You spread His love to everyone. You want to pass it on.

What a wondrous time is spring; when all the trees are budding. The birds begin to sing, the flowers start their blooming. That's how it is with God's love, once you've experienced it. You want to sing it's fresh like spring, you want to pass it on. 

I wish for you my friend; this happiness that I've found.  You can depend on Him, it matters not where you're bound. I'll shout it from the mountain top, I want my world to know.  The Lord of love has come to me, I want to pass it on.

- Kurt Kaiser

Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ? John 4:29

When The Roll is Called Up Yonder

When the trumpet of the Lord shall sound, and time shall be no more, And the morning breaks, eternal, bright and fair. When the saved of earth shall gather over on the other shore, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there. 

On that bright and cloudless morning when the dead in Christ shall rise, And the glory of His resurrection share. When His chosen ones shall gather to their home beyond the skies, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there. 

Let us labor for the Master from the dawn till setting sun, Let us talk of all His wondrous love and care. Then when all of life is over, and our work on earth is done, And the roll is called up yonder, I'll be there. When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll, is called up yon-der, When the roll is called up yonder I'll be there. 

- C. Barny Robertson / James Milton Black

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thessalonians 4:17

America The Beautiful

O beautiful for spacious skies, 

For amber waves of grain, 

For purple mountain majesties,

Above the fruited plain! 

America! America! God shed His grace on thee. And crown thy good with brotherhood, 

From sea to shining sea! 

- Katherine Lee Bates

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.  Psalm 33:12

Battle Hymn of The Republic

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord; 

he is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored; 

he hath loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword; 

his truth is marching on. 

Glory, glory, hallelujah! 

Glory, glory, hallelujah! 

Glory, glory, hallelujah! 

His truth is marching on.

- Julia Ward Howe 

For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; Luke 2:30-31

Shackles (Praise YOU)

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

In the corners of mind I just can't seem to find a reason to believe That I can break free. 'Cause you see I have been down for so long Feel like all hope is gone But as I lift my hands, I understand That I should praise You through my circumstance.

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

Everything that could go wrong All went wrong at one time; So much pressure fell on me, I thought I was gonna lose my mind. But I know You wanna see If I will hold on through these trials, But I need You to lift this load 'Cause I can't take it no more. 

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

Been through the fire and the rain, Bound in every kind of way, But God has broken every chain So let me go …

Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.  Psalm 45:2

Yes, Jesus Loves Me!

Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so; Little ones to Him belong; They are weak, but He is strong. 

Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so. 

Jesus loves me! This I know, As He loved so long ago, Taking children on His knee, Saying, “Let them come to Me.” 

Jesus loves me still today, Walking with me on my way, Wanting as a friend to give Light and love to all who live. Jesus loves me! 

He who died Heaven’s gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in. 

Jesus loves me! He will stay Close beside me all the way; Thou hast bled and died for me, 

I will henceforth live for Thee.

- William B. Bradbury

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  John 3:16

I Will Follow Him

I will follow him, 

follow him wherever He may go; 

And near him I always will be, 

and nothing can keep him from me; 

He is my destiny.

I will follow him, 

follow Him because my heart I knew; 

Ever since he touched my heart I knew; 

There isn't an ocean too deep, 

a mountain so high it can keep; 

keep me away; Away from His love.

I love Him, I love Him, I love Him; 

And where He goes I'll follow, I'll follow, 

I'll follow. 

I will follow Him, follow Him,  

follow Him wherever he may go. 

There isn't an ocean too deep, 

a mountain so high it can keep; keep me away.

I will follow him, follow Him, 

Follow Him wherever he may go; 

There isn't an ocean too deep, 

a mountain so high it can keep; 

keep me away; Away from His love.

I love him, I love Him, I love him.  

And where He goes I'll follow, 

I'll follow, I'll follow. 

He'll always be my true love, 

my true love, my true love. 

From now until forever, forever, forever.

I will follow Him, follow Him, 

follow Him; 

There isn't an ocean too deep, 

a mountain so high it can keep; 

keep me away; Away from His love.

He'll always be my true love, 

my true love, my true love; 

From now until forever, forever, forever.

- Andre Rieu

And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.  Luke 9:57
