Psalm 95:1
1 "Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
Lyrics to “Thank You For Giving To the Lord”:
“I dreamed I went to heaven
You were there with me
We walked upon the streets of gold
Beside the crystal sea
We heard the angels singing
Then someone called your name
You turned and saw this young man
And he was smiling as he came
And he said 'Friend you may not know me now'
And then he said, "But wait
You used to teach my Sunday School When I was only eight.
And every week you would say a prayer Before the class would start
And one day when you said that prayer
I asked Jesus in my heart
"Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am a life that was changed
Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am so glad you gave
"Then another man stood before you
And said, 'Remember the time
A missionary came to your church
And his pictures made you cry
You didn't have much money
But you gave it anyway
Jesus took the gift you gave
And that's why I'm here today'
"Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am a life that was changed
Thank you for giving to the Lord
I am so glad you gave
"One by one they came
Far as the eyes could see
Each life somehow touched
By your generosity
Little things that you had done
Sacrifices made
Unnoticed on the earth
In heaven now proclaimed
"And I know that up in heaven
You're not supposed to cry
But I am almost sure
There were tears in your eyes
As Jesus took your hand
And you stood before the Lord
He said, 'My child look around you
For great is your reward”
I am so grateful for all of you that have joined together with me over the years, and helped me reach one more soul for the Lord. I can’t find the words that can begin to tell what your sacrifices really mean to me.
Father, I ask that you give them the greatest reward. In Jesus's name, Amen.
Blessings on the journey, and remember that the best is yet to come.
