It Wasn't Just A Band-Aid




It Wasn’t Just A Band-Aid

There were ten lonely lepers;
Looking for a miracle that day.
Suff’ring, hungry and thirsty;
They were sickly, spotted castaways.

In a loveless world of grief;
Rejected by both friends and family.
They cried to God in their need;
"Oh God please, don’t forget about me."

 From a distance they could see;
A man approaching with loving eyes.
 With acceptance on His face;
Could it be that God had heard their cries?

They met Him outside the gate;
They saw Jesus, and they cried mercy;
Then He sent them to the priest.
They were cleansed, healed from their leprosy.

It wasn’t just a band-aid.
It wasn’t just a temporal fix.
No, It wasn’t imagined.
It wasn’t some kind of magic trick.

God sent His Son to heal them;
From a lonely life of leprosy.
He met them along life’s way;
Pulled them from a life of misery.

They were healed and stood amazed;
But somehow forgot to thank and praise.
They ran in joy rejoicing;
But one stayed to thank Him on that day.

He praised at His feet with thanks;
He did not hesitate to repeat.
“Oh Thank-you Jesus, Thank-you Jesus;”
The blessing of God, how sweet.

It wasn’t just a band-aid.
It wasn’t just a temporal fix.
No, It wasn’t imagined.
It wasn’t some kind of magic trick.

Jesus heals the hurting life;
He saves the sin-sick captive soul;
In His love rescues them;
In His mercy, He makes them whole.

“Oh Thank-you Jesus, Thank-you Jesus;”
For washing away my sin.
Help me never forget to praise you;
Again and again and again.

Luke 17:19 Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Luke 17:11- 19
 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
 And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:
 And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.
 And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
 And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,
 And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan.
 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?
 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.
 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Not By Bread Alone - Children's Song



Thanksgiving Harvest Activities




Not By Bread Alone
Thanksgiving Song Poem

We live not by bread alone;
But by Gods Holy Word.
For through it we feed our souls;
And the Truth we learn.

Not by the fresh stuffed turkey;
Not the roasted ham.
Not by the sweet potatoes;
Not by candied yams.

Not by old fashioned cobbler;
On our window seal.
Not by the cinnamon buns;
That give our nose a thrill.

Not by the bread that’s baking,
Not by pumpkin pie;
Not by Grandma’s canned preserves;
Let me tell you why.

Jesus is the bread of life;
Jesus is the way.
Jesus satisfies our need;
When we read and praise.

He fills us with His presence;
Comforts us with grace.
Fills our hearts with thanksgiving;
When we seek His Way.

We learn, to love each other;
We learn how to give.
We learn how to please God;
And how to forgive.

We live not by bread alone;
But by Gods holy Word.
For through it we feed our souls;
And our hearts are stirred.

Thank the Lord for His blessings;
This thanksgiving day.
Thank Him for the living Word;
The bread of  God's Way.

It's Time To Count! Our Many Blessings



It's Time To Count! 

Our Many Blessings


Verse 1
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
One and two, three and four;
God has blessed us that's for sure.
With country free and family;
Our  God, who loves you and me.
All the flowers seas and trees;
Raindrops, starlight, colored leaves.
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.

Verse 2
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
Five and six, seven, eight;
Giving thanks, appreciate.
All the apples grapes and pears;
Our eyes, our nose and our ears.
All the creatures great and small;
And the mountains all so tall.
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.

Verse 3
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
Nine and ten, eleven, twelve.
With great thanks let's give a yell;
For our  feet,  our  heart, our hands;
Sisters. brothers, other lands.
For sunlight, the  moon at night;
And the wind to our kite.

It's time to count ( count!)
Our many blessings.
