Assessing our Churches
Our culture’s sadly, so secular
Church attendance, fast falling
Need God’s help, to resolve this
Are we on our knees, calling?
Finding a Fellowship
Seek the fruits of God’s Spirit
Find a fellowship, in revival
Saints maturing, multiplying
Going forth, to make disciples.
Deny Self and Be Filled
Jesus told us, deny self
And take up our cross
Come follow after Him
Count all else as loss.
Deny Self
You must give up all ‘rights’
Your old life, a ‘foreclosure’
Since redeemed, by Christ Jesus
You are His, a new owner.
Daily Repent
Do repent of all evil
Ungodly behavior
Daily dying to self
To abide in the Savior.
Daily Abide
Yes, daily I come
To abide in You, Lord
To worship and obey
All You have in store.
Cultivate Change
And do cultivate joy
Your heart upward raised
Instead of your grumbling
Thanksgiving and praise.
Count All Else as Loss
So, allow not your flesh
This world, nor the devil
To steal, kill, destroy
You are His chosen vessel.
Come Holy Spirit
I yearn for Your presence
So weary of failure
Need blessings, O God
Shine upon me, with favor.
By Faith
Know faith is not wishing
Nor wanting, nor feeling
But faith is believing
Obeying God’s leading.
