Why the shepherds first?


As the lowly shepherds
 lay keeping their sheep.
An Angel of the Lord appeared,
 Come worship the Savior
a babe in peaceful sleep.

Why the shepherds first?
Why not someone of more authority?
Christ alone came for all mankind
Not one has greater priority.

Who better to be the first to arrive?
After all, Christ is the Lamb of God.
Who better to kneel at His side, 
but those who believed ,
though to others it may have seemed odd.

For in the Kingdom of Heaven, 
the last shall be first and first shall be last
Lord make me as a lowly shepherd
 help me to put You first,
 and my selfish ways last.

Repent and turn to Jesus

Repent and turn to Jesus,
for the time is drawing near.
Let those with eyes to see
and those with ears to hear.

Repent and turn to Jesus
leave your sins in the past.
Accept Him while there is still time,
for that time is fading fast!

Repent and turn to Jesus
He is waiting for you, a Child of God to be
He has always been right there 
just open your eyes to see.

Repent and turn to Jesus 
My plea to you, I pray
Repent and turn to Jesus
For He IS the ONLY way!

The War is already won..but the battle rages on

The war has already been won,
The Victor, God's only Son.

Yet the enemy continues to attack us
every hour of ever day.
But, God is for us and He defends us
against satan's every way.

His Word like a double-edged sword,
My faith a shield
Yet my greatest defense against the enemy
comes, when all my heart and soul to Christ I yield.

Without the Lord I am nothing,
Can do nothing am powerless against temptation
But through Him I can do anything
in Him I have Salvation.

To Breathe the Air of Heaven

To breathe the air of Heaven
To feel the refreshing breath of Lord
breathing life into my soul.

I am alive in Him now.
I see Him clearly now.
I hear Him speak to me.

To breathe that precious air of my Savior
So easy to breathe,
cherishing every moment.
