Rock-Solid Promises

When you became a Christian

Walking forward in the footsteps of Christ,

Don’t ever look back

Remember Lot’s wife

We are on the upward road

Rejoicing all the way,

As we walk with Jesus

Every blessed God-given day

There will be rocky roads

That we will have to walk around,

But with Jesus in our hearts

We will continue to walk God’s paths of sacred ground

His promises

Are held dear to our heart,

He has promised to every saved soul

To never from them to depart

His promises

Are rock-solid, pure and true,

He is preparing a home for us

For when our life here on Earth is through

But for now

We are to keep reaching out to the lost,

Reaching out to gather in the crops

That they may receive the gift that he purchased upon that old rugged cross

He has, with all his gifts to us,

Given to each of us a special way to reach out and draw others in,

That they may one day rejoice in heaven

With all their past friends and kin.

THE POET

THOMAS KRUGER

Praise God

Walk the walk and live the talk

As you forever of a Christian be,

As you share God’s Word that you have read or heard

From sea to shining sea

Life in Jesus here on Earth

Is a foretaste of the eternal life of one day yet to come,

We will serve the Lord God of heaven

Till our days on Earth are over and done

God continually reaches out to us with love

As we reach out to one day be forever with him,

He does his part as we do our part

That we may usher searching souls in

I was forty years old

Before I gave my heart to Jesus,

It took a miracle to lead me in

And now, forty-three years later, I’m still writing

Of which, as long as I live and pray, I hope will never end

O what a foretaste of glory divine

That I am his and that he is mine,

And shall ever be

As long as I walk that straight-and-narrow line

He lifted me out of the dung hill

And placed within me a new heart,

With a promise of wonderfully divine

To never from me to depart

Praise God

Through whom all blessings flow,

As we one day praise his angels in heaven above

As for now we praise those here on Earth below.

Baptism and the Altar of Grace

O what unmerited favor

That God offers for each one of us.

That can only be obtained through the shed blood

Of his only begotten son, Christ Jesus

How can we neglect so great of salvation

That God offers to each and every repentant soul?

To all who have knelt down at the altar of grace

And been baptized down at a cleansing water hole

With a new beginning

You will have a new life to start,

As you live to the full

Life with a brand-new cleansed heart

Saving grace

O what a gift of o so very precious;

A gift that we scarce can take it in

As we use our gifts that God has given to us

Of what Jesus said unto Peter

And of which twice he did repeat,

Of three words

Feed my sheep.

This is a lesson for each of us

That we must also remember to do,

As we grow in that closer walk with Jesus

As he continues of this world to guide us through

We were born again

To serve our risen savior,

Who, with his own blood

Washes souls, clean and pure.
