Dont weep for me
Dont weep for me for cause Im not alone,
Im here with Jesus beside His throne.
I am not cold nor asleep.
Theres so many new people here in heaven to meet.
I love you and miss you and know you grieve for me,
But Im here,waiting for you,one day soon, reunited we will be.
We will soon be together forever, Jesus is making the plans.
He is coming to bring you home, to this beautiful land.
No tears,no sorrow,no pain is allowed in this heavenly home.
The blind can see, the deaf can hear, the crippled have new legs to roam.
No sadness exists in this city so fair,
No tears ever form in this land over here.
So, dont ever say good-bye
Just see you soon, here beyond the sky.
You see, Im happier than Ive ever been, since entering heaven's gates,
I miss you so much but for you, I will patiently wait.
We will never be separated again, together for eternity,
So be happy when you think of me,Please dont for me grieve. By Dj French



Shane, its been over 8 years now ,son ,and the horror still remains,
Thoughts of you singing,writing,doing so many things.
Every day I think of you and wonder what changes the years would have made,
The love for you so strong in my heart will never ever fade.
I wake every morning and see your face in pictures and in my memories of you.
You're the last thing I think of when I drift off to sleep,praying that I wake up and find it isnt true.
That you're not gone,its been a dream, a nightmare that has lasted so long.
I pray daily to wake up and find you here,that you have never been gone.
I know this isnt what you would want,for me to grieve and mourn,
But its so hard,this life without you,I feel so alone and torn.
My firstborn of 2 children,my 2 sons,Shane and Shawn,my heart,my joy,
Oh,how proud I was of my handsome little boys.
You were only a loan from God,not allowed to stay,
Brought into our lives but too quickly taken away.
Always laughing,never sad,your crooked little grin,the I love yous you'd always say,
Not even 23 years old,you were taken 4 months before that day.
You would have been 31 July 17th,my son and I wonder every day,every hour,
How different our lives would be if you could have stayed,our glue,our tower.
You were the anchor to our ship,the bond that held us tight,
The peacemaker,the quiet one who made all things seem right.
You are so loved and missed,my child,more and more each day.
I can't wait until that day when we will reunite to stay
together,forever, in our mansion thats being prepared.
I know that you are with Him now,Jesus and our loved ones are with you there.
Wait for me,my darling son,for I will remain faithful to God and never ever stray,
For I will not be defeated,the thought of being reunited with you keeps me on that strait and narrow way.
I would have never survived if the Lord hadnt carried me in His arms,
comforting me,giving me peace,protecting me from harm.
Because I didnt think I could live in this world without you being a part,
He gives me strength but every day I feel you in my heart.
I'll never say good-by,I will see you in awhile,
Soon to be together again,how I long to see your smile.
I love you so much words cant express the sadness in my heart,
How I look so forward to that day when we will never have to part.
We will sing and shout praises to the King,
Oh what joy,oh what gladness,praises forever to ring.
You may be singing in the angel band,I can just hear yopu now,
The glow on your face,your voice singing praises,to the King we'll bow.
I know that dad,your uncles, and grandparents are with you in that place with Jesus as your heavenly host,our Savior,Redeemer,the One who died for all.
Holding you in His arms,I see you standing so straight and tall.
I'll see you soon,sweetheart, I will keep on keeping on,
Jesus is the Rock that I stand upon.
He is the One that will carry me through,
When my days are bad and I am missing you.
He lets me know that we will be together once again,
Forever and ever,nevermore to end.

Sleep Won't Come

Sleep Won't Come The nights are so long.sleep womt come,
I can see thru the curtains that its time for the sun.
I toss and turn missing my son,thoughts going thru my head,
Praying I'll wake up and find the last 8 years a nightmare and you're not really dead.
Lord, I cry out to You for sweet peace of mind, precious rest,
Thoughts of Shane keeps racing thru my mind,everything seems a test.
I cry, I pray, but the emptiness in my heart remains,
I try to stay busy,try to refrain,
Myself from thinking of how it would be,
If my son hadn't been shot and was still here with me.
Lord, my life is so full of grief,
For my son, even though I have faith and internal belief.
I know that we will be together again one day,
Lead me, guide me, show me the way.
Help me to turn this grief over to You, leave it at the cross,
Help me to always keep my eyes on You, I give to You this loss.
I know You are with me, carrying me along the way,
But I still have this question, Lord why couldn;t he stay?
The pain in my heart is so sharp I feel I may smother,
Why my dear Shane,Lord,why not another?
I thought he was sent to me for all of my earthly life,
When we lost him,the pain cut thru like a knife.
This nightmare,this grief,this pain,this sorrow,
Lord, I ask You for a brighter tomorrow.
Shane, my love for you will never die in any way,shape, or form,
You will always be "Our Shane," my firstborn.
Love you always my son,Mom

Penecoastal Shower
In one accord,for their reward,they waited for the Spirit,
Both night and day,they stayed to pray,seeking to inherit.
At last it came,in Jesus's name,a Penecoastal shower,
He brought a tongue to everyone,
Who tarried for the power.
The sound was loud to that great crowd,for heaven had transmitted,
The risen Christ from paradise,
on them,while they were sitting.
This got around and they were found,
By jews from every nation.They all turned out just to hear them shout,With a vain imagination.
Now some believed they had received new wine,so soon that morning,
But,Peter said,the Lord has spread this blessing for your warning.
Then when they heard the apostle word,
Their hearts were pricked within,
What shall we do,we're asking you
They cried to hear from Him.
Repent He advised,be baptized,
Everyone in Jesus Name.
The Spirit,then,will come within,
And cancel all your shame.
They gladly heard the apostles word,
With fear in every soul.
They found the way that very day,
3000 souls or more.
This blessing is,if understood,
Still poured on us today.
Its only doubt that keeps It out,
So why not stop and pray?
Please never shun the unknown tongue,
For it is God's expression.
Through everyone the Spirit;s come,
And taken Its possession.

Claiming My Healing
Lord,as I lie here,claiming and believing my healing,
You know the pain that Im in and the thoughts that I am having.
I love You,I worship You,I adore You with all of my heart,
All I ask is that You lead and guide me,enable me to do my part,
Teach me to minister to others that need encouragement and hope,
Help me to wait for You,Your time,give me the ability to cope.
Fill me with desire to search continually in Your Word,the promise that You left for all,
Teach me to have patience,to hear when you call.
Give me strength to get thru the pain that attacks my body each day,
The courage to endure whatever comes my way.
I know that You tell us for everything there is a reason,
For every time there is a season.
Lord,I ask for patience to wait for Your healing touch,
For the sick free days that I miss so much.
I know that you have shown others visions of my healing to be,
So I have claimed this miracle,knowing that I will soon be pain free.
You have brought me thru so very much,Even the doctors know that it is You,
No scientific explanation,they call me a miracle too.
I have no fear of dying,Lord,For I know I will join You in that glory land,
Singing with the angels,in that heavenly band.
But I have so much more that I want to do,
So many lost souls,I want to win for You.
So Lord,I just ask that Your Will be done in every thing I do,
For whatever happens,I will continue on for You.

Call Out To Jesus"
When you feel lonely and have so many burdens to share,
Call out to Jesus for He is always there.
He loves us with such unconditional love,
Draw your strength from the Lord above.
When in doubt,speak in your heart to Him.He will hear your plea and forgive all sin.
He will throw them into a sea of forgetfulness,forever forgiven,
All in the past,on your way to one day enter heaven.
Walk with Him,talk with Him,each and every day,
He will lead and guide you,never let you lose your way.
Ask for the Holy Spirit and He will give you this power,overfill your cup,
Like a fountain bubbling over,our words rising up.
The gift of prayer tongues is the way He gives us to pray when we cant find the words,
We may not understand what we say but our prayers to Him are heard.
Our voices will ring out and He will understand,
Its the power,the Comforter that He left for us when he ascended into heaven,after walking here a man.
Let those feelings flow over,He understands what you say,ask in His name,
He will fill you with this precious gift and you will never be the same.

The Rapture
He will appear in the clouds with a shout,of that make no mistake.
Watch,listen,be ready,keep your eyes on that eastern sky,
Where He will appear one day soon,it could be anytime.
This is a promise He gave to us,to save us from the days of wrath.
The prophecy's in the Word of God,just study and figure the math.
The Bible says no one knows the day or the hour,
When He will catch us up together. in all His glory and power.
Then havoc on this world will be reaped,
Earthquakes,wars,famines,pestilences,some too horrid to speak.
Some will finally see the truth and fall on their knees to Him.
He is so merciful, He accepts them, even then.
For seven years, the world will be in complete chaos and great despair,
Be ready for the rapture, you arent going to want to be here.
Then Christ will come with all his saints at the end of Tribulation,
He will come in glory and power at this final condemnation.
The judgement day, when all will pay for each wrong they have done,
Read the Word of God, the war's already won.
satan will be bound 1,000 years and then loosed for a short time,
One more chance to deceive any that he can find.
to turn against Christ though they will be thrown with him into a lake of fire.
Screaming,wailing,gnashing of teeth, punishment eternal,so dire.
Then satan and all his helpers will be thrown into the pit of hell,
1,000 years of peace on earth,the New Jerusalem, the Bible tells.
We will abide forever with Him in that city of pure gold,
That He went to prepare for us, of this He has told.
Gates of pearls, streets of gold,gems of every kind,
We will live forever, in that city, so sublime.
No more pain,no grief,no sorrow,no tears,no sadness forevermore,
We will all live in glory with Him, no evil,no wrong, like eagles we are free to soar.
I want to look upon His face, bow before Him,worship Him in all His glory,
My friend, so can you, just read and learn the story.
Its all there,In the Book, the truth and the light,Watch and be ready to take that final flight.
Dont miss this reservation,where we will go to our final destination.

He is Coming Back



Those who watched as they crucified our Savior,Jesus Christ,
The last blood offering, the ultimate sacrifice.
This horror was so unreal although He had already told them this story,
That He was going to prepare a place for them in glory.
the guilt so great in them,not knowing what to do,
Afraid to lose Him on this rugged cross where He died for me and you.
But after the last breath left His body and His body was prepared,
Annointing Him with oils,so gently in the tomb,they placed Him there.
What a surprise when they rolled the stone away,
That old tomb was empty,He had arisen that 3rd day.
Even though they had been told that each event would come to be,
Some still doubted this promise of eternity.
He appeared before them to prove to them he arose and was alive,
He did this so we could live forever in Paradise.
He endued these horrors,yet,the gift is free,the promise of salvation,
Anyone can receive,any person,any nation.
He told us excatly what we needed to know to accept Him into our hearts,
He will dwell within,nevermore to part. Call out my friend,whereever you are, sweet peace you will never know without Him,
The Alpha and Omega,the Beginning and the End.
He lives inside our hearts until that day we go with Him and leave this earth,
This prophecy was given to all even before His birth.
He is coming back to take His bride away,
Saved from the days of wrath,in His arms we will forever stay.
The joy,the love,the mercy and grace,
We will fully comprehend when we look upon His face.
We will sing and praise Him forever and ever.
Finally,home to stay with Him and our loved ones,separation never
Again,together life eternal,
No more evil,no more satan,thrown in the fire infernal.
Halleluah to the King, The Son of God, our Savior,our best friend.
He is here with us now and will keep us til the end,
of this life and the one we are going where life will never end,
No more pain,no tears,no sorrow,eternal peace within.
Tell all you meet about this man from Galilee,
Who died and arose and lives today,so that we would live forever,eternally.

Jesus shall Come
Jesus shall come with a shout
, Not one christian will be left out.
Caught up to be with Him in the air,
Nothing on this earth can ever compare.
Every eye shall hear, every ear shall hear,
When He calls us home with Him,to be ever near.
We will sing and shout and rejoice,praise His mighty name,
Where we'll live eternal, King of kings ,on His throne He will reign.
We will sing with the angel band in that home up above,
No more night, always in light, filled with so much love.
Hate,jealousy,spite and anger will all be cast in that bottomless pit,
With satan and all his helpers that we want so to forget.
Oh what singing and shouting there will be,
When our blessed Savior we will finally see.
Our loved ones there with us who have gone on before,
They are patiently waiting, standing by the door.
We will never say good-by, nevermore to leave,
No more sickness, no more pain, no more satan present to deceive.
Halleluah! praises to the King
Worship the Almighty, let our praises ring.

Lord We Ask
Lord we ask Your guidance in all that we do,
Every step we take, every word we say, let it be for You.
Teach us to walk the way you want us to walk the strait and narrow way,
Put the words in our mouth that You want us to say.
Put a desire in all to learn and seek Your Word,
Your praises that we sing, let them always be heard.
Teach us to be all that You would have us be,
Show us each and every thing that You want us to see.
We pray for knowledge and discernment, gifts You freely give,
Serving You day by day, while on this earth we live.
We long to look upon Your face,
As we sing of Your Amazing Grace.
Give us strength and courage to go through each trial and sorrow,
Carry us when we cant walk, give us a brighter tomorrow.
Help us to wait patiently for Your return, to be ready for to meet,
When that last trumpet sounds and satan you will then defeat.
We will live forever in our eternal home,
Where we'll live forever,nevermore to roam.

He Died That We Could Live
Jesus died on that cross so that we could have eternal life, a gift He freely gives,
He suffered and died a horrible death that we that could live.
To be absent from the body is to be in the presence of the Lord.
Just open your heart and invite Him in, dont close the door.
Knocj and He shall answer, Assk and you will receive,
All Hes asks in return is that we fully believe.
Born from a virgin,walked this earth as a man,
For 32 years, That was all in His Great Plan.
He has gone on to heaven, our place to prepare,
Read His Word, the Bible , learn the things that He did share.
The prophets foretold of His coming to die on the cross,
To give eternal life to all that were lost.
They also tell of His coming to catch us all away,
Watch,wait and be ready for He could come any day.

His Will Be Done
Though trials may test you and tribulations will come,
Always pray that His Divine Will be done.
He doesnt promise us bright days every day or rose peatals across every path,
But He promises eternity to those whose faith in Him shall last
He understands discouragement, He felt it when He walked on this earth,
His fate was already determined long before His birth.
Not all the people listened when He tried to spread the truth,
Such as Judas, who betrayed Him and then faced the noose.
Peter, who denied knowing Him was then riddled with guilt,
All these emotion we feel,they also felt.
We can strive daily to walk closer with Him, seek His Word, stay on the narrow and strait.
Place all your cares upon Him, things of this world plaese dont partake.
Open your heart and invite Him to come in and live,
Allow Him in every room of your heart, ask Him to forgive.
He will sweep every corner and get rid of all past sins,
Walk with you every step of the way,if you only let Him in.
He will be with you thru the snares and tils that satan throws your way,
Carrying you when you cant walk, with victory, if in His arms you will stay.
Safety, comfort and peace, He will bring to you,
Leading and guiding in all,showing you what to do.
Let your light shine for Him, dont keep this hidden away,
Tell all you know about Jesus, help them to find the way.
Rewards will be waiting when He ushers you home with Him to stay,
Streets of gold,gates of pearls, nevermore to stray.
