Come Forth

Arise, My Son, come forth,
King of Kings, Man of great worth.
Death did not keep You down,
Savior, resurrected with great renown.

The stone rolled away,
Resurrection, this is the day.
For once was dead,
Now on the throne, Creation's head.

Seeking Him, here He did lay,
But now He is risen, no dismay.
Alive and well, 
Power over death and Hell.

Prepare the Way

Christ came down the road,
Knowing the heavy load.
For had He not made a way,
We would forever be astray.

Rejoice, for He has come,
He brought to life the numb.
For the King of Life is here,
And He will always be near.

We have rejoiced then,
But have we forgotten our sin?
Who would pay the price?
Who would make the sacrifice?

My Savior, paid the debt,
Have you recognized that yet?
His life upon that cross,
New life came, when His was lost.

We cannot forget the life given,
Because we have been forgiven.
For a life lost, eternal life to gain,
Would you suffer that pain?

Know You More

I have only scratched the surface,
This gift of great purchase.
Your words offer so much more,
Than I have seen before.

The mystery of Your vast glory,
And in Your Word, Your great story.
For I long to know You more,
And see what You have in store.

Knowing You more, I do believe,
When I ask I shall receive.
Knowing everything amounts to nothing,
Giving everything, You gave me something.

What Is It Going Take?

Tragedy is a part of life,
So is the pain and the strife.
We can't let those things hold us down,
And cause us to be consumed and drown.

For the storms of life may come strong,
And we may be hurt and feel wronged.
Christ felt the hurt and the pain,
And He died our eternal life to gain.

Your hurt may be deep and lasting,
And the rain pours and the winds blasting.
He sees the hurt and know your need,
Because He endured the pain and did bleed.

I am calling out to the hurting and lost,
I proclaim a message and a gift at no cost.
He loved the sinners and knew their need,
So I ask in earnest and pray that you heed.

Is It Well With You?

Is it well with high and crashing swell?
Is He there when you are down and fail?
The pain so deep and seems to have no cure,
Is the place you are standing sure?

For life has many storms and pains,
But with life in Christ, your soul gains.
Lay the burdens down at the cross,
To gain what by sin was lost.

My soul sings the praise of my Savior,
For a new life and a new behavior.
Let the things of this mortal life go,
And have eternal life. I know.

My heart hurts for those in pain,
I want them to know of what I have gained.
For Christ has died our souls to save,
And rise above the power of the grave.

Trust Him

I know it is hard to trust,
But it needs to be discussed.
We need to put away this distrust,
For our lives it is a must.

He was hated and betrayed,
But He still on the cross He laid.
For life cannot be lived without trust,
For with Him our lives will not be a bust.

Lay aside the things that hurt,
And know that He will never desert.
For trust in Him alone,
For your sins, He will atone.

Listen Long And Hard

Listen long and hard,
And your heart guard.
For there will be a day,
That Jesus calls us away.

The Savior calls out to you,
What will you do?
For the end will come some day,
Will you be the one to the rocks pray?

God loved us all in our wretched state,
But our sin He does hate.
He could have left us behind,
But He chose not to leave us blind.

Listen to the life that set the example,
And evidence in His Word is ample.
Life in Him is the best,
And He will enter at your request.
