No Room For Him

Joseph and Mary seek shelter from the cold and dark,
After on this long journey they did embark.
From inn to inn, they sought shelter that night,
But no innkeeper could this king invite.

Are you like the innkeeper that had no room?
Are you unaware of your impending doom?
Our Lord and King came to us in a stable,
Will you choose to let Him in, if you are able?

The time has passed and He seeks shelter in our hearts,
That is where His salvation power starts.
He came from the stable and traveled to the cross,
He came so that we would not suffer eternal loss.

He knocks upon your heart’s door,
He wants to know you forever more.
Come to the door and let Him enter in,
And cleanse your heart from sin.

Weight of the World

You had the weight of the world on Your back,
You gave all and nothing did You lack.
This weight we could not bear alone,
But You did and by Your blood atone.

When we feel like it is all too much,
We can ask for the Savior's touch.
He told us that He is there to share,
These burdens that we so often bear.

The weight of the cross was on Your back,
You knew that we would fall, and get off track.
You gave Your life, no questions asked,
To speak of You, is what we are tasked.

Your strength far greater than Atlas,
Changing our flesh, so into eternity we can pass.
You have given us a cross to bear,
When we are overwhelmed, You do care.

Changed

Changed from the inside out,
I know my Savior without a doubt.
For if I am not changed within,
Then how will other souls I win.

Changed, and with God's speed
I transform all my ways and deeds,
Show the love for which Christ bled
Supply the needs you see in His stead.

Changed for all to see,
Showing them that we are truly free.
He saved us, this I know,
And He said for us to go.

Changed not by something mystical,
But to know grace and faith are critical,
Then saved and brand new,
What will we do?

Changed by God's own Son,
I am saved and it is done.
Justified, and my life rearranged
By His life, my life, He changed.
