HE CHOSE ME

He did not choose the preidents of nations
He did not choose senators and honourables
He did not choose ministers and commissioners
But He chose me to follow Him

He did not choose the richest man on earth
Neither did He choose the poorest on the surface of the earth
He did not choose the averagely comfortable
But He chose me to follow Him

He did not look at my weaknesses
For He choose the weak things to confound the wise
He did  not look at my inadequacies and inabilities
For these are so numerous I could not count
But He chose me to follow Him

He did not credit my achievements
For this could only lead to pride
Neither did He discredit my failures 
For in multitudes of failure there is wisdom
I just don't know why He decided to choose me
But I know He chose me to follow Him

Oh yes! I can feel His pulse
I can hear His heart beat tinkling
I can hear the master calling and saying
Come and I will make you fishers of men

YOU ARE THE GREATEST

Surely, You are the greatest, Compare to you man is foolish
For we are all the works of your hand
And limited in knowledge understanding and wisdom
Who can be compared to you oh Lord
Among the gods who is like you
Idols are wothless, they are the works of man
You alone are God forever more

Before You there is no god, Beside You there is no god
Behind You there will be no other God
You are not the hand work of man
You created all things yet You are not created
Idols are worthless and thier makers liars
They will surely be humiliated and disgraced
Surely BABA, You are the greatest

POWER TO SAY NO

When faced with trials of life, when my faith is tried and tested
When faced with temptations of divers kind
When life looks like it has no meaning
When faced with lack and poverty
Lord give me the power to hold on

When faced with obsession for worldly things
Things that are not of eternal value
When faced with craziness for wealth and material things
When faced with challenges of living the world standard
When faced with devil's cunny devices
Lord give me the power to say no

When faced with troubles and tempest of life
When faced with discouragements and disappointments
When faced with rejection from loved ones
When my health is failing and there is no hope
Lord give me the power to hold on

THANK YOU JESUS

You made my life a song to sing and a book to read
A picture to behold and a drama to watch
A play to stage and a testimony to share
You made me a light to my  world, to shine in the midst of darkness
You made me a salt to my generation, to sweetened and preserved my world
You brought me out of the miry clay and placed my feet on the rock
And You gave me a new song to sing
Thank you Jesus for giving my life a meaning

WHAT AN AWESOME GOD

He made the world by His power, and He preserved it by His wisdom
He strecthed out the heavens by His understanding, and the earth by His knowledge 
Clothed in majesty and honour, holy and righteous is His name
When He speaks there is thunder in the heavens and the earth shook to its foundation
Oh what an awesome God He is

He causes the cloud to rise over the earth
By His power He sents the thunder and lightinng with the rain  
He releases the wind from its store house
The sun He command to give light and warms
The moon and stars to brighten our nights
He made all things but was not made
Oh what an awesome God He is

SERVANT LEADER

This is my prayer Lord, that you will give me the sprit of a servant.
To serve and not to boss, to appreciate and not to complain
To be humble and not proud, to love and not hate.
Also bless me Lord, with the qualities of a servant leader
A teachable spirit always ready to give account of stewardship
A spirit that sees and glorify Christ and not self, a spirit that always love to do your will
A spirit dead to pride, self esteem, popularity, position, prosperity, promotion, plaudits and wealth
A spirit that is clothed with the beauty and righteousness of Christ
A spirit that does not see itself first, nor claim right nor seek greatness
A spirit that does not seek the praise of men but love to please God
A non boastfull spirit, a spirit that does not seek recognition or reward
A spirit that will not mess up at the face of temptation and trails
A spirit clothed with the humility of Christ.
