THE RIDE OF DELIGHT

THE RIDE OF DELIGHT



Read God's love letter to all mankind
Boundless wisdom we will find
In this noble and holy book
Each verse a refreshing brook.

This book our souls will feed
Where we find all that we need
Words so pure and precious
Heavenly food so delicious.

Read God's love letter to humanity
Discover the truth that sets one free
Flipping through its pages
Tap into the wisdom of the ages.

Holy ride through holy pages
His truth remains through endless ages
The ride of pleasure and delight
God's Word gives life and light.

Your words were found, and I ate them, And Your word was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart; For I am called by Your name,O Lord God of hosts. Jeremiah 15:16(NKJV)

THE SMILE OF A CHILD

The Smile Of A Child

Somewhere today a child needs to smile

Who has shed secret tears a long while

How great the hurt and pain she feels

And she's asking, "Is God real?"

                                                                                            ~*~

Somewhere today is a precious dream

Of a place where love is the flowing stream

This child's heart now full of sorrow

Has hope of a brighter tomorrow.

                                                                                            ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs a smile

As she's faced circumstances harsh and hostile

A smile, a hug, a listening ear from true love

And then she'll gladly sing to God above.

                                                                                           ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs to know

Of Jesus Christ and how He loves her so

He said,"Let the children come to me."

For Heaven's kingdom is for such as these.

                                                                                           ~*~

Somewhere today a child needs to smile

Needing a true friend to aid her through her miles

So let God's name today be glorified

As we inspire the smile of a child!

                                                                                            ~*~

And He took the children in His arms, placed His hands on them and blessed them. Mark 10:16(NIV)

SONG OF PRAISE
by Janet Martin

You draw away the midnight's purple awning

As the slumbering flower opens up her eyes

As songbirds herald the cool and tranquil dawning

A miracle before man's wondering eyes

As the dormant breeze awakes in gentle sighing

And passes through the trembling walnut trees

Oh, my awesome God, there's no denying

None but You bestows moments like these

The tumbling waterfall declares Your power

You bring a tree to sprout from hills of stone

You deck this world with sweet wildflower

And in the darkest night, I'm not alone

The mighty oak resides within an acorn

The warrior is a seed within the womb

And in Your love, You wore a lowly man's form

To place Your hope within the darkened tomb

The raindrops laugh upon the emerald pillow

Where grass and leaf, where fern and tree reside

The sunlight filters through the swaying willow

And croons a lovely song in morning's tide

Your love flows in torrents from the heavens

Your love flowed in rivers from across

Your love tells me that I am forgiven

And all I give for you will not be a loss

The heavens declare the beauty of Your glory

The earth bursts with the goodness of Your hand

While I repeat in awe love's old, old story

And in my hour of doubt, it's new again

You pour Your endless mercy like a shower

As I drink from the well that never dries

You whisper to me in this sacred hour

And paint Your mercy 'cross the morning skies

MY HOPE IS IN THE LORD

My Hope, My Home
Is in the Holy One
My Strength, My Song
Is Jesus Christ-God's Son.

 My Peace, My Prize
He is my heart's treasure
My Fountain, my Fortress
Filling my life with pleasures.

My Light, My Leader
He is My Savior and King
My Love, My Life
He is my everything. 

The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?

Psalm 27 vs 1(KJV)

THE STRIDE

Taking a stride, an adventure
Into the fabulous works of architecture
Great works that men have wrought
There comes a beautiful thought.

From the Opera house in Sydney
To the Concert hall of Walt Disney
Los Angeles' home of the philharmonic orchestra,
Drawing ovations from near and far.

The majestic Eiffel tower
And the great wall of China
The mind-blowing Golden gate bridge;
The acme of creativity.

The Taj Mahal beautiful and magnificent,
Opulently built with marbles luminescent;
If men could build such palaces grand,
How then shall be the throne built by God's own hand?

Pausing, at these wonders
My heart ponders;
On the celestial city above
Built by the Lord in love.

The City of music, with walls of Jasper
Where we'll praise the King forever
With gates of pearls and streets of gold;
Mansions with beauty untold.


Truly, men have made giant strides
Building halls and towers of pride,
In their obsession have unraveled
To their world, structures of marvel

But He who is the Creator of all men
Has prepared for His children
Something better and more wondrous
A heavenly home so glorious.

More beautiful than anything we can yet perceive
More wonderful than anything man can conceive
Waiting for those who dare to take the stride
To choose Christ and in Him abide.

But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have
entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for
them that love Him.1 Corinthians 2:9 (KJV)
