Remain steadfast in the Lord.Place no hope in this worldly horde.Things of this world are frail.They will fail.This world is not my home.The Scriptures I will comb.Its truths are what give hope,Providing ways to cope.Help me daily life’s path alongthat in your care I will forever belong.

Oh the beauty of the skies of various blues!Proclaim praise to God for His gorgeous hues.God is the greatest of all.Even though man took a fall,He provides abundant blessings.My heart with all its might glory sings!The fresh snow on the earth is whiteWith my eyes its beauty finds delight.It serves as a reminder of the labor of laundressesWho take joy in the cleanliness of shirts and dresses.Our Lord has given us the love of His blood on the crossThat our souls may be cleansed of their sinful dross.The snow covered fieldsReminds of the cleansing His blood yields.Never forget the beauty of God’s creation,The blues, yellows, reds bring mankind into celebration.

Is my name written there?My destination is where?Each day of the week, yes seven,Mark my daily journey to heaven.No amount of braggingNo foot draggingNo denialNo trialWill improve my odds,As this journey requires many foot trods,To reach this life’s destination.I am on my journey to my heavenly nation.With God to help me all along the way,I will joyfully arrive in Heaven one day.
