Keep Your Eyes On Jesus
Keep your eyes on Jesus
He will never let you drown
He will lift you up out of the water
and plant your feet on higher ground
Keep on looking upward
when the storm winds are blowing hard
Jesus is always there
keeping watch and being on guard
Keep on having faith in Jesus
when troubles and doubts assail
He is the only one who can calm the sea
for His mighty power cannot fail
Matthew 14:28-32
NOTE: Poetry on this page is aimed toward people who have already been born again by trusting Jesus as their personal savior. If you are not sure if you have ever received this wonderful free gift of salvation through faith in Christ only and not religion or good works, please refer to the following e-tract for a very clear presentation from the bible on how to be saved, have your sins forgiven, and be given the gift of eternal life. God's Simple Plan of Salvation.
By Faith Launch Off
By faith get in the shuttle
and let the Lord take you up high
to realms unknown and unseen
by the human eye
By faith launch off
out into the deep outer space
trusting God to bring your spacecraft
back safely to its place
By faith get out
of your comfort zone,
keeping your eyes on Jesus,
who will never leave you alone
By faith listening for the words of our savior
"mission complete"
where we’ll enter heaven’s glory
and with perfect rest sit at His feet
Romans 4:20 He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God.
Miracles By Believing
When circumstances are most dire
is when Jesus works so His name is glorified
If the devil tells you to give up
and "there is no use", he has lied
If you have thoughts that the Lord has failed you,
you certainly are wrong
Miracles and blessings are coming your way
to change your mourning to a joyful song
Jesus does great miracles
for those who believe
Trusting in His power
and waiting for miraculous things to receive
When things look the worst
and you are facing a great trial or test
that is the perfect time for Jesus to do a miracle
and His name be glorified best
Mark 5:35 While he yet spake, there came from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy daughter is dead: why troublest the Master any further?
5:36 As soon as Jesus heard the word that was spoken, he saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not afraid, only believe.
Not Stranded Out At Sea
Do you feel like you are all alone in your boat
stranded at sea way out far
You're not alone because under the deep blue water
is where God's mighty hands are
His great and powerful hands that you cannot see
are holding up your boat
He has you in his care and you will not perish
because He will keep you afloat
You're never alone in the wilderness of the sea
because God's hands are right under you
He'll bring your boat safe to shore
and you'll see the miracles He is about to do
Isaiah 43:16 Thus saith the LORD, which maketh a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters;
Jesus Knows His Sheep
Once we are born again
we become Jesus' sheep
We can never ever be lost
and our soul he will always keep
Our shepherd goes before us
and we know his voice
By following him it makes us glad
and our heart rejoice
Jesus the shepherd knows us
and calls us by our name
To give his life for us on the cross
is the reason that he came
By laying down his life for us
he gives us eternal and abundant life free
The good shepherd did it all
and tells us "come unto me."
John 10:14 I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
Faith
Faith sees the victory as being already won
and walks through the darkness with the light of God’s son
Faith makes a weak person strong through the Lord’s might
to soar on eagles wings to a new height
Faith is believing in miracles only from God’s power
and being led by the Spirit to be Christ’s follower
Faith is knowing our earthly life is just a vapor
that the only thing that will last is what is done for our savior
Faith is embracing the promises and ever clinging to them
until the day our journey is over and we will be with Him
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen
Reconciled To God
Once an alien and an enemy of God,
through the blood of the cross I was reconciled
My soul reclaimed and redeemed
and my name written down in heaven and filed
I am now safe and secure in God’s loving hand
throughout eternity and forever
and from his great love and keeping
nothing can ever sever
He saved me by his grace and keeps me by the same
This great salvation I can never lose
can never be plucked out of his hand
And of this merciful gift is what I like to muse
Romans 5:10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
