My Brother’s Keeper

Am I my brother’s keeper

When he cries out to me?

Will I share my resources

At home across the sea?

 

Am I my brother’s keeper

Reaching out with love

To share some of the blessings

God sends me from above.

 

Am I my brother’s keeper

Compassionate and wise,

looking at the less fortunate

Through our Savior’s eyes?

 

The joy that comes from giving

Is manna for the soul.

It’s the thread that unites us

And makes the broken whole.

 

Am I my brother’s keeper

When the going gets tough?

Whatever I may give away.

I always have enough.

 

God loves a cheerful giver…

It changes lives you see.

Am I my brother’s keeper

When he cries out to me?

Clay Harrison

Complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the sames love united in heart, thinking one thing. Philippians 2:2

 

 

 

People Get Ready

People Get Ready – Lyrics

People get ready
There’s a train a-coming
You don’t need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don’t need no ticket
You just thank the Lord

People get ready
For the train to Jordan
Picking up passengers
From coast to coast
Faith is the key
Open the doors and board them
There’s room for all
Among the loved the most

There ain’t no room
For the hopeless sinner
Who would hurt all mankind just
To save his own
Have pity on those
Whose chances are thinner
Cause there’s no hiding place
From the Kingdom’s Throne

So people get ready
For the train a-comin’
You don’t need no baggage
You just get on board
All you need is faith
To hear the diesels humming
Don’t need no ticket
You just thank, you just thank the Lord

Yeah
Oh
Yeah
Oh

I’m getting ready
I’m getting ready
This time I’m ready
This time I’m ready
