Second chance


The human race, the Lord had made,                      .      .       

Their hearts from Him, had turned,                                       .  . 

He looked down on their sinful deeds,                                 . .

 How His frustration burned.

All He'd created, perfectly,
To vile wickedness, moved,
What HE called GOOD, mankind had turned
To evil, - NOT approved.

He must have thought "I'll start again"
"Destroy all I have made"
Though there was ONE, who found HIS grace.                   ...   .. His clan, would wrath, evade.

The house of Noah, spared this wrath,
With them, He'd start anew,
They'd be preserved, from all the deeds
On earth, was going to do.

The people, vile, when noticing
The structure Noah did build,
Thought him insane, and moreso when
With animals, it was filled.

Some humans ALSO, were allowed
To enter Ark so rough,
'Twas Noah, three sons, also their wives, 
For them, 'twas room enough.

A torrential downpour He would send
Just short of seven week,
And when the flooding b'gan to drop,
Some birds sent out to seek

Dry land, at least sign, water'd fell,
So when returned, did dove,
With Olive branch, our Noah knew
Survived, thanked God, above.

To Know, Know, Know Him. {song}

To know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, Just to walk His way, In His will, to stay, Yes. to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him, And I do, yes I do, do you? When He died for me, On that cruel tree, He endured such agony Just so He could set me free, He rose again triumphantly And He lives in Heav'n eternally, He wants you and me there too. Why can't men see How vast His love be? Some day He'll return To take His own to Glory. To know, really know Him, Is to love, truly love Him Live for Him each day, In His will, obey, Yes to know, know, know Him, Is to love, love, love Him And I know, He loves you too.                                                                                       ...

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
