Eternity : To the tune of "CARRICKFERGUS". { by request }{Linda Tracy}

   


                    I had a dream, I was in Heaven,

               With all my loved ones, from years gone by.

               A choir of angels, proclaimed my entrance,

              The greeting, heart’ning from one and all.

              Heard my Creator, give a welcoming,

              ‘’To the JOY of my dear Lord,’’

              No worldly cares, trials, temptations,

              Angelic choristers, sang in accord.


               I gazed with wonder at all the splendour,

               The glorious jewels adorned around,

               The streets, they glimmered with many gemstones,

               Two dozen elders on radiant thrones.

               That Great White Throne, it stood before me,

               Earth and Sky did flee away,

               It was the Judgement  and thanks to Jesus,

               I had escap'ed, that flaming fire. 

( chorus music )

               Now I'm in His Will, and He keeps me steadfast, 

               Walks beside me every day,

               He is my Saviour and I fully trust Him                 

               To guide my footsteps and lead my way 

               He is my Saviour and I trust Him fully

               To guide my footsteps and lead my way.

Christmas Past

Gifts of gold, incense and myrrh For that baby lying there Were not gifts without much thought, Significant references, they brought. GOLD , for riches of a king, Of properties e'erlasting ring, To celebrate the Kingly birth, Who came as man upon the earth. FRANKINCENSE came from the east For th'annointing of a priest, This babe, a Prophet, Priest and King, Eternal life for all to bring. MYRRH was given, though bitter it's taste, Preparing for the death to be faced, The purpose of His life, - the Cross, To save the world from eternal loss. The media bombard with ads., Pushing forth the latest fads, The parents now seem under stress, They're spending more, though giving less. Oh to live in bygone days Though cash was scarce, with less in pays, The children, then, were quite content And knew what Christmas really meant

Addenda to 'Who is this man'

Who is this Man Addenda (in blue) to an anthem by Mary Kay Beall entitled Who is this Man? sung in my home church choir a few years ago. Who is this man upon a cross By love's decree, brought low? They say He came to save the world Because God loved us so The King of Kings And Lord of Lords Eternally He'll reign Can it be true He died for me And yes, would die again Who is this man upon the cross? He is a friend to me And though I oft Him disappoint His love has set me free The King of Kings And Lord of Lords He took my sin and pain And yes it's true He died for me, But will return again

A Father's Blessing

                  As youngest son, I always sensed                   From many of the brothers,                   True or not, they’d put me down,                   I wasn’t like the others.                                    A few days prior to passing on,                  A blessing I was giv’n                        From my beloved, aged dad,                  Before he moved to Heav’n.                                    His health was failing faster now  ...
