S. I. Rednow

I thank You for family that sought You
And thank You for family with grit
Thank You for my family that found You
And I'm praying for those that quit
...

There's room at the table, a loved one once sat
A veteran who served a nation that called
The ultimate sacrifice, what's greater than that
Turning back evil where tyranny was stalled
...

Was a knock at the door, I opened my heart
It's the Lord so I asked Him in
But He wouldn't come in, He said look around
Seems everything's covered in sin
...

Not all TV pastors are led by the heart
Knowing people and money are easy to part
So blessed by the Lord that their greed became lust
They're wolves on the hunt so they say what they must
...

Some worship wood, some worship stone
No trust in the God that gives
They put faith in a god made by a man
Christians serve the God that lives
...

Two can be one
But both will fall
If one gives some
And one gives all
...

There's no guarantee of tomorrow in place
Regardless how much we endeavor
We wake up each day by His patience and grace
We're one breath away from forever
...

Oh the pleasure man tries to embrace
Offers money to travel through space
But rejects the grace that would open the place
That would put us in front of Gods face
...

It's funny how some, were the best that could be
But were harboring secrets, we just couldn't see
And then there are some, seems no good within
They prove to be better, than anyone's been
...

We made Christmas and Easter marketing days
Now Thanksgiving too because these are our ways
The day after Thanksgiving we pray even more
We pray we're up front when they open the store
...

Easter for some is their day for the Lord
Gathered with time set aside
Bedazzled in clothes they can barely afford
It's vanity nourishing pride
...

The meaning of Christmas suffers forever
With 'Happy Holidays' no spirit comes forth
Passing out gifts when we all come together
God isn't in boots and He's not from the north
...

If you're told that you can't, ask why
And if told that you won't, you try
When I doubted myself, I gave it my all
So just look at me now, I fly
...

When families fight and will not speak
Or lasting peace they will not seek
Upon a death they'll fight no more
And then they'll ask what was it for
...

To walk away hurts, even cuts to the heart
Gloom hung like a fog after dawn
Our invisible walls did tear us apart
When we're not being heard we move on
...

Another year down and another year up
The Lord is still blessing me more
Fulfillment and joy overflowing the cup
The New Year has something in store
...

Can evolution be promoting a lie
God gave us us the how and the why
A question debates how we still have the apes
If evolved why didn't they die
...

Each day is like school and this life an exam
All of us given admission
God so loved the world that He gave us His lamb
Lord Jesus covered tuition
...

...

Jesus bullied his wife and He cheated
He did drugs and it kept Him defeated
Was drunk all the time and it wasn't just wine
Then most of these things He repeated
...
