GOD'S ARMY



 I've wasted my time here on earthly goods,
never really doing just what I should.
  My heart cries out to God in pain,
as I hold on tight to my saviors name.
  For all these things, they shall soon end,
this is for those who have an ear to lend.
  The wasted time and day's that I've put in,
only lead's deeper to the grave within.
  I can't change any of this you see,
the only thing I can truly change is me..
  The way I look at the world today,
by His Spirit, He let's me know that I'm okay.
  Down a new road, a new path you see,
that is where my Lord hath put me.
  He set me free from those things I were bound,
and now from my heart and lip's a brand new sound.
  Life is so full of it's twist and turns,
people only caring about their own concern's.
  Oh I declare that my Jesus is real,
for I know whom I hear, see and feel.
  The touch of a love that's so sweet you see,
in that love He died for both you and me.
  I want to be free in my mind, heart and spirit,
singing it loud and clear for all to hear it.
  I claim His Love as I hold on to His hand,
as He guide's me through to the promised land.
  I must listen for his voice to lead,
as I lay quietly, my soul He doth feed.
  If I were to break down and cry,
let it to be in the Lord here's why.
 Nothing...and I mean nothing
can tear me apart,
as long as I allow JESUS to live in my heart.
  Though the world around me seems to fall,
I know for sure in Jesus' name I can call.
  They'll be those who will always disagree,
that's because they haven't experienced being set free.
  No matter what I face each day I may live,
unto God... my all.. help me to truly give.
  LORD have Mercy on my human heart,
I need you to be my all in all, help me do my part.
  When I stumble, I know I am going to fall,
your Name from my lip's please help me call.
  And as I am out in this wilderness you see,
I am and I shall go out in my.             "Lord's army"
