2) First and foremost, the salvation, He graciously did give.
He bled and died and rose again, so that I could live.
To be in His Presence there, for all eternity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
3) Second, talents musically, to with a choir, sing.
Sight reading and perfect pitch, with no ear training.
Then writing songs, another gift, done for His Glory.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
4) Third, the writing of poetry, started long ago.
What that would become today, I couldn't see, or know.
Tributes, sacred, secular; a huge variety.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
5) Fourth, hobbies of square dancing, and ham radio.
Good clean fun and fellowship; with friends there, to know.
With all done with both of these, I sure keep busy.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
6) Fifth, the special friends I've made, in hobbies, otherwise.
They are like a contest won, with its worthy prize.
These friendships are far better than, winning a trophy.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
7) Sixth, my parents, wonderful, who raised me from my youth.
Showed how I should live in love, discipline, and truth.
Both have gone to be with God, there in eternity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
8) Seventh, a sister in The Lord, who became my wife.
An inner beauty, that she had, our joyful married life.
Went to Heaven years ago; but one day soon, I'll see.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
9) Eighth, though with the sin nature, in this corrupted flesh.
All my sins forgiven there; each new day, and fresh.
With health issues, one day soon; from them, I'll be free.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
10) Ninth, though I can't drive again, either day or night.
In no danger of blindness, or loss of my sight.
So the blessings He provides, each day, I can see.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
11) Tenth, having food and shelter, and funds to pay the bills.
In Heaven, one day, I'll have, a mansion on the hill.
Yet, I am so undeserving, and so unworthy.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
12) Somedays I think I've got it bad, but when I look around;
Far more in worse shape than me, and on shaky ground.
I ask for forgiveness from insensitivity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
13) Some days, I feel depressed and lonely; no one understands.
Then I'm reminded of Christ's Love, from His Nail Pierced Hands.
What He did for me back then, on Cross Of Calvary.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
14) I'm glad that God did not give me, what I so deserve.
For God grades upon The Cross, and not upon the curve.
Forgiving all the sins I'd do, in their entireity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
15) When I first heard the great hymn, ''The Old Rugged Cross''.
The Holy Spirit pricked my heart, and I knew I was lost.
Then, I repented, came to Christ, in all humility.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
16) Every day, He cares for me, from His Throne in Heaven.
Though each day, I deal with sin; through Him, I'm forgiven.
All my sins were washed away, with Love and Mercy.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
17) The words are so inadequate, just to say ''Thank You''.
To The Lord for what He did, no matter what I'd do.
For all, He lived, died, rose again, there in victory.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
18) All who repent, believe on Christ, their souls, Christ will save.
In our place, Christ, lived and died, and rose up from the grave.
Salvation's gift available, there so full and free.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
19) Eye hasn't seen, ear hasn't heard, or entered in one's heart.
All God has prepared for those, who've loved Him from the start.
The joy awaiting the redeemed, for all eternity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
20) At least one chance is given there, to hear the Gospel Truth.
No matter where you are in life, though adults or youth.
What one does with Jesus Christ, sets their eternity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
21) Salvation, a free gift to all, Gentiles and Jews.
But, before death, every soul, on Christ, there must choose.
Accepting or rejecting Christ; what will your choice, be??
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
22) Yet, God is a Gentleman, He'll let you go your way.
At death, it's either Christ, or you; your sin debt, to pay.
Thankful before I chose Him, that He there, did choose me.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
23) ''Believe On Christ, the One God sent'', the one thing He requires.
The only thing to keep your soul from The Lake Of Fire.
If you choose to reject Christ, Heaven, you won't see.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
24) The selling of your soul to Satan, in deal that you make.
You'll find that deals with him there, truly are all fake.
Hell, far worse than Heaven there, for eternity.
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
25) Eagerly or there compelled, before Christ, all kneel.
At Judgment of The Great White Throne, there'll be no appeal.
At The Bema Judgment Seat, what a jubilee!!
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
26) Tomorrow promised to no one, you could die tonight.
Repent of sin, believe on Christ; you know that it's right.
In Heaven, saying with the saved, as you there, join me;
All Praise and Glory to The Lord, for what He gave to me.
