Letter To My Friends

Here’s just a few word’s God gave me about life
He said to put it in a letter to my friends
Just a few words about all of our trials in life
You see, a life of chaos is not what He intends

God wants you to know true happiness
My love you were not meant to live in misery
Maybe I’m not the one to be giving advice
When my own life’s been such a mystery

But these words are not mine, but from above
Words given by our Lord and not my own
Our Father wants you to know the truth of His Word
And give you a life like you’ve never known

You see, His Son told us of His grace and His love
Every single word the He taught us was the truth
When we take it to our heart it brings us back from the dead
And restores our hearts to the vitality of our youth

So He gave me this message for you all my friends
He laid on my heart for you these few words and rhymes
He told me to share with you the gospel of His truth
The truth that will get us through all of these hard times

Jesus is the way the truth and the life for us all
Everyday His Word gives us a little something to inspire
He wants you to open up your eyes and your minds to His word
Trust in Him and your hearts will be filled with Holy Fire

Moment Of Prayer

I spent my life running after worldly pleasures
I spent my time gathering up worldly treasure
But I don’t do that anymore
I spent my days running, trying to find myself
I spent my years running through a private hell
But what’s all this running good for

I spent my life living an playing a sinning man
I spent my life living and dying fast as I can
I was living a lie for what it’s worth
I spent my life living for someone else’s dreams
I spent my life living and busting at the seams
I was dying for a rebirth

I spent my life living in shadowy shades of grey
I spent my life living it my own twisted way
A life that left me begging on my knees
I spent my life living broken, so weak in the faith
I spent my life living with no sense of a better way
Until a word and a touch set my soul so free

I spent my life living weak and deceived
I spent my life living what the world believed
Until a prayer showed me I’d been so wrong
I spent my life living it out so cold and alone
I spent my life living in a world of my own
But now my soul sings out a different song

I spent my life living as a wreck and a mess
I spent my life living refusing to confess
So lost I didn’t know where to begin
I spent my life living bound in chains
I spent my life living wrap up in my pain
But I was set free while praying to God amen
