Things Have Gone Wrong
Things Have Gone Wrong Things have gone wrong, weary pilgrim,But is it sin at your door?Judgment hath heavily fallen.Seek God, His mercy implore. Things have gone wrong, but life’s transient.Heaven awaits further on.Lift up your eyes; He is coming.Rest your hard lot thereupon. Things have gone wrong. Men are watching.Will you victorious be?Will they seek […]
Two Years Ago – Jenny Daniel
Two Years Ago Two years ago? It seems like yesterday That you so quietly, gently slipped away With pipes and tubes attached to a machine A second more! into a different scene! Did angels carry you to God that day? How I had longed to go with on your way But God said “Stay! Keith’s […]
When The Storms of Life are Raging!
When The Storms of Life are Raging! When the storms of life are raging And I cannot see ahead When the path so steep – I tremble To go where God has led! I find in Christ my Saviour The strength needed each day To take the step before me Set by Him on life’s […]
There Is No Better Time
There Is No Better Time There are so many argumentsOf dates and source and rightsThat mingle with this Christmas timeAnd it’s commercial lights. We sometimes miss the chance that PaulHad grabbed so long ago,When he had used the unknown godTo point to God below. So much is wrong, the sceptics claimIn all this celebration,But do […]
Such Were Some of You

This Modern World
This Modern World It’s tempting in this modern worldTo skim the edge of sin;To seek the world’s approval,Desire her smile to win. It seems so hard to be the oneThat’s always saying NoTo what the world deems reasonable.It aggravated them so. And thus I’m tempted to go downThe lanes that God abhors,While Satan’s music fills […]
Twas Just a Whisper of Satan
Twas Just a Whisper of Satan ‘Twas just a whisper of SatanInto the ears of Eve,Causing her faith to falter,That did her heart deceive. Subtle suggestions from SatanFollow us every day,Making us doubt God’s promise,Crippling us on our way. He’ll undermine God’s power;Question that He could beTrue to His word and faithfulAmidst adversity. Jesus said, […]
We Can’t
We Can’t We can’t force our loved ones to follow God,But we cover them in prayer.Thus our love will rise to the throne of graceAnd meet the Saviour there. We can’t follow feet upon the earthWhen ours have feebler grown,But our prayers run ahead and reach God’s ear Each cry, a heart- rent groan. We can’t […]
A Haunting Melody
A Haunting Melody In the midst of all the clamourThat a Christmas Season brings,There is a haunting melodyThat in the chaos rings. It speaks of God’s compassion,Of His boundless love and grace,A manger with a baby smallTo save the human race. It points to His perfectionAs the chosen Lamb of God,As countless steps are chronicledUpon […]
Voices Keep Calling God’s Children
Voices Keep Calling God’s Children Voices keep calling God’s childrenTo wander from His way.Images keep on appearing,Seeking their will to sway. Does the way seem too stony?Is the path very rough?Does your whole being cry out:“Surely it is too tough ‘”? Do the world’s lights allure you?Have you turned from the plough?Is your light burning […]
