II Peter 1:5-7

For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness, and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love.

You're My Treasure

 
I treasure each of your smiles and hugs
you're the ones I yearn to be with
my heart aches when you're away
wish you were here to stay
memories linger
here in my heart
forever
you'll be
mine

ABC's of Life

A person's life is filled with
Bountiful gifts from a loving
Creator who smiles
Down from above
Ever thinking of our needs.
Family is a treasured
Gift flowing from
His hand to us.
Interested in our lives,
Jesus wants to be
King of our hearts.
Love flows freely as
Mercy is extended to us.
Never does He forsake us
Over the years of our life.
Pray and praising Him with a
Quiet time each day
Recognizing our need of this
Savior and His sacrifice.
Trusting His plans
Until He calls us home.
Valuing our relationship
With our Redeemer and friend who
X'ed out our sins, we
Yearn to spread the news
Zero sins held against us

Pictures Line the Walls of My Heart

Pictures of family so dear
keeps them so near
brings my heart cheer
sometimes a tear

Family, my most precious prize
doubled in size
sweet to my eyes
don't like goodbyes

Memories stirred within my breast
a precious guest
God, I'm so blest
love stands the test

Exuberant Praise

Worthy of exuberant praise
Your name I will lift up and raise.
Father, I don't want to be shy
when I should shout and magnify.

Emotions may cause me to weep,
but I'd much rather jump and leap.
My joy is finally complete
as the old story I repeat.

Lift me up to the highest height
Oh Thou my soul's redeeming light.
May I give the praise You deserve
and do it with unrestrained verve.
