BOOK BOUND IN LEATHER
He carries his hopes in a book bound in leather
Blessed are the peacemakers
For they shall be called the
children of God
And you will know the truth my
friend
And the truth will set you free
Every morning at dawn he
awakens
To the world, you know
Filled with laughter and his
mouth filled with praise
He remembers the words
in the book bound in leather
He opens it up to read the
words on the page
Every night before bedtime
the book bound in leather
Lays on the table as he
silently prays
For the world to wake up
And find Christ as Savior
To open their hearts so that
they might be saved
JUDGMENT DAY
It looks like the world is
having fun ,my friend
It seems as though life may come
to an end
"It can't seem to get much
worse",
I've heard some say
But let them wait until judgment
day
They'll cry, they'll die, they'll
sigh and they'll sin
And they'll say, " It must be
that HELL we're in",
On the day you stand
before God's throne
You'll cry, you'll sigh and
then you'll moan
And God will yell out,
" Is this name written
down?"
No one will make a sound,
Someone will say, " We
told you, you were a sinner,
But you turned your back on God
to become a winner,
And told us to go away.
No, God,
This name is not written down
today."
And God will yell out, "
This was your life!
Remember the time you struck
down your wife?
Remember the time you cursed
out my name?
Remember you said, Evolution
and I
were the same?
Remember the time you said
there was no Hell?
And you promised Satan, your
soul you would sell?
You said there was no God,
and on Sunday you bowled,
And to the devil your mind you
sold
No mister, your name is not in
the BOOK OF LIFE
Remember too you divorced your
wife,
And called her a liar, because
she belonged to me
And she said, " Some day ,
you'll see."
You had your chance, you
sinner, don't yell
You'll have plenty of time in
the pit of Hell,
Forever and ever and ever
you'll burn
Because to me, you could not
turn."
BLINDNESS
Look through the dark
And you will find
You cannot see through
blindness
For blindness is darkness
And darkness is death
And death produces eternal
darkness
with out God
Because without God there is no
light
And without light we cannot see
And when we cannot see
We are blind.
SALVATION STEALER
He came out of the darkness
and stole my away my heart
Before I knew what had hit me,
he torn my salvation apart,
He threw me lies and
I caught them by the side
Never even knowing I was going
blind
One day I woke up lonely,
my salvation had been stole
I no longer had the Savior
to love
and keep me whole,
I wondered what had happened
why I could not see
Jesus did not live inside
I was no longer free
Salvation stealer creeps
into the night
Fills your heart with lies and
fear,
dulls your mind and sight,
Salvation stealer rapes
your heart and soul
To have you in his arms in Hell
is his only goal.
I LOVE THE RAIN
I love the rain
falling so quickly,
I love the rain 's gentle
splash,
I love the way it falls on my
window.
Rain falls so quickly
Like God's spirit falls on me.
WHO IS A MAN?
Who is a man
Without Jesus
there is no happiness
Without Him
time can move no more,
Only a man
who lives the life of
righteousness
Can receive the gift that Jesus
bore.
Who is a man
that doesn't have the gift of
life?
Whose heart is where
God can never live?
He's a man who looks into a
mirror
To find he knows not who
he really is.
I GAVE
I gave Him lies
PSALM OF THE DAMNED
Drugs and alcohol are my
gods,
I shall always want
They maketh me to lie
down
any time and anywhere
They leadth me to poverty
and despair
They damneth my soul;
They lead me in
the paths of unrighteousness
For my own name's sake
Yea, as I walk through
the valley of the shadow of
death,
I will always feel fear and
terror,
For it is with me; the drugs
and booze,
They comfort me.
Satan prepares a place in
Hell for me
With a little help from my
friends;
Thou coverest my head
with guilt and shame,
My cup runneth over
and over and over
Surely pain, lonliness and fear
MY PRAYER
Oh Lord, I'm yours today
Please help me to find my way,
My desire is to be with you
Please help me Lord, to make it
through,
Please fill my heart with
tranquility
Because I know only you can set
me free,
Please help me to love again
To know your voice, to be your
friend,
My Lord, my Lord, my friend, my
love
Please send me help from God
above,
Wipe away all the tears
I have cried throughout the
years,
Please fill my heart with love
divine
Let my thoughts be yours
not mine,
Let your shinning light come
glowing through So all the world sees only you.
THE BIG BLACK BIBLE
His life belongings are
carried in a sack
He has a guitar swung over his
back,
He travels the highway creating
new songs
Salvation is the life to which
he belongs
The big black bible is all
that he knows
He spreads the Good News
wherever he goes,
He has no more worries
no cares or no pain
For the big black bible carries
his name
All along the highway
he passes out tracks
To friends and neighbors
he gives them the facts,
About how he is free,
and how we should live
And to them, his life,
he gladly would give,
He's just a loner,
everyone knows
He carries his black book
where ever he goes,
He hasn't got money to buy
fancy things
He satisfied with whatever life
simply brings.
