The Sword to the Blacksmith

To thee I offer gratitude 

Not anger, blame or attitude 

You forged me into perfect steel

So evil I would surely kill

Each hammer stroke shapes my blade

Until I’m finished and all made. 

Grinding takes off edges rough

Polish makes me smooth and tough. 

The hilt and blade are finally fused

I am now ready to be used. 

In the masters hand I’ll stay

To conquer evil every day. 

Conquer The Enemy

He wanted to be your only God

And force you to hold to the rod. 

God the Father made the choice

He let us keep our precious voice.

 

While Satan now has been cast out

His hatred rages as he shouts. 

We have the choice to ignore him

And keep our light from going dim. 

We must as dragons fight his fear

And focus on our Savior dear. 

As we, into battles go

Our Savior, the way, will always show. 

Bruised and broken his body was

For a pure and righteous cause. 

He was the only one who could

For his life was perfectly good. 

The only things of us he asks

Are rather very simple tasks. 

Love Him and others with your heart 

And he will do his promised part. 

The day will come when the war is done

And we’ll learn it was already won. 

Our Savior was the victor sure

When he offered his heart so pure. 

So as we leave this life behind

The best we could do was to be kind. 

That’s s how you conquer great evil

You seek God’s words and then fulfill. 

Seek For Everlasting Praise

It starts out when we are quite young 
They tell you of a job well done. 
It makes your heart feel good inside
But also makes for a bumpy ride. 

The praise of man should not be sought 
It only lends our souls to rot. 
Seek the praise of The true king
And to his glory praises sing.

Worldly praise is like the rain 
And like the rain, goes down the drain. 
God will give us what we need 
So we, on false praise, never feed. 

Always seek for what is real 
Not just how it makes you feel. 
What Jesus Christ can offer you 
Is very real and oh so true!!

Father’s Greatest Christmas Gift

 

I’ll never truly understand 
What Jesus Christ did just for me. 
He left His holy home on high
And in a lowly manger lie. 

He did not seek for worldly cares
His Father’s love is what He shares. 
He taught us all that we should do
Follow God and ever be true. 

His selfless gift of sacrifice 
Was made for me, He paid full price. 
He was the only one who could
Do what He did for all our good. 

This Christmas focus on His life
And follow Him in spite of strife. 
Pick up your cross and do your best
And know He’ll help you with your test. 

Seek out those who need His love
And be the hands of Him above. 
In giving of our love and time
You’ll feel His love, sweet and sublime. 

He is the Father’s greatest gift
He came to save us and uplift. 
Give thanks to Father every day 
For our dear Savior, that I pray.
