GOD STILL SEEKS WISE MEN

Wise men came from far away through the dark night.

They traveled many miles guided by star light.

At last, they found HIM whom they earnestly sought,

Worshipped HIM and presented the gifts they brought.

Back to their homes different men than when they came,

Blessed by GOD's SON,

how could they remain the same?

GOD still seeks and finds wise men in this dark hour,

They need a light to show them HIS saving power.

May I be that light shining steadfast and bright,

Unwavering as the wise men's star that night,

Guiding the seeking souls to the SAVIOUR's door,

Helping them to find all they are longing for.

A few years ago GOD blessed me with a song! HE has helped me to learn some new things this year...making my very own graphics with PSP7 and I have also learned to record and create Midi and MP3 files with the help of Melody Assistant and my trusty guitar. Below are the words to the song...I sing to GOD's glory and praise!

I Wonder What You Thought

Verse 1
{C} Mary, I {G7} wonder, what were your thoughts when you {C} heard the Angel's voice?
Mary, I {G7} wonder, what did you think when he {C} said you were GOD's choice?

{G7} Mary, I wonder, what you {C} thought.

Verse 2
{C} Joseph, I {G7} wonder, Mary's with child, did you {C} think what could this mean?
Joseph, I {G7} wonder, what did you think when you {C} woke up from that dream?

{G7} Joseph, I wonder what you {C} thought.

Verse 3
{C} Shepherds, I {G7} wonder, what were your thoughts as you {C} heard Angelic hosts?
Shepherds, I {G7} wonder, what did you think as you {C} hurried from your posts?

{C} Wisemen, I {G7} wonder, what were your hopes as you {C} journeyed from afar?

If JESUS Was Born Today

If you heard the news of JESUS’ birth as the shepherds did that night

Would you drop what you were doing and rush to see the wondrous sight?

Would you hurry to the nearest Best Western and ask, "where is HE?"

Only to find HIM, in the old shed out behind parking lot three?

I'm sure the bleating of all the sheep would be "disturbing the peace",

Would their meeting be illegal and their display ordered to cease?

After all, you can't have a "Nativity" in a public place,

But Satan and his reindeer can occupy almost any space.

And “Hark The Herald Angels Sing” is most surely bound to offend.

The Evil Liberties Union wants all sacred singing to end…

So all sorts of clanging, banging, moans and groans can be heard instead.

What they call music must make the Heavenly Host shudder with dread.

What of the wise men who traversed afar?… stopped at the border, I’m sure…

Delayed by the authorities because of the elements they bore.

Can you imagine “CIA” scratching their heads…gold, frankincense, myrrh?

Could these be mixed to create a bomb?!!!…surely would cause quite a stir.

What of the house where HE briefly sojourned? Zoning would have a fit there.

They would need an act of congress to host the wise men with gifts so rare.

After all the taxes, could poor Joseph and Mary take HIM and flee,

To live and establish a Carpenter Shop in another country?

The further I go with these lines, the more absurd this would be today.

I’m so glad HE came when HE did…somehow it all sounds better that way.

GOD in HIS infinite wisdom chose the time and place most suitable

For the birth of HIS SON…the fulfillment of HIS WORD immutable.
