Gravity Bound

1 Corinthians 4:4

 

So many people say they’re Christians today

But they don’t know all that they say.

They don’t read God’s Word or do what He’d say.

They say, “Hey, we’re all Christians! It’s the American way.”

 

But, oh, my friend, are you gravity bound?

Would your faith be enough to lift you off the ground?

Do you look to Jesus where your strength can be found?

Or are you just stranded? Are you gravity bound?

 

Lying, drinking, stealing, cheating, having your way

Seems to be the style, or so they say.

Your problem is sin and someday you’ll pay.

It’s up to you to decide if you fry or you pray.

 

Oh, my friend, are you gravity bound?

Would your faith be enough to lift you off the ground?

Do you look to Jesus where your strength can be found?

Or are you just stranded? Are you gravity bound?

 

We’re gonna fly so high

When the Lord appears in the wink of an eye.

The Risen Lord is coming to take us away.

It’s you to decide, “Do you fly or stay?”

 

So, my friend, are you gravity bound?

Would your faith be enough to lift you off the ground?

Do you look to Jesus where your strength can be found?

Or are you just stranded? Are you gravity bound?

Looking For a Miracle

 By Michael L. Alumbaugh, ©May 26, 2024

Would you know a diamond hidden in a chunk of coal?
Would you know a black sheep hidden in the white, white wool?
Could you explain the flight of a bee?
Could you explain what holds back the sea?
Well, if you’re looking for a miracle just look at you and me.

Could explain how Je-sus turned the water into wine?
Or how He raised the dead and gave sight to the blind?
Or how He walked upon the sea?
Or why He died for sinful you and me?
Well, if you’re looking for a miracle, then look at you and me!

When Jesus walked among us
He came to set us free.
But why He’d die for sinful us
Now, that’s the mystery.
Yet, He gives victory!
So . . .

Would you know a diamond hidden in a chunk of coal?
Would you know a black sheep hidden in the white, white wool?
Could you explain the flight of a bee?
Can you ex-plain that Gospel mystery?
‘Cause if you’re looking for a miracle just look at you and me.

Could you explain the flight of a bee?
Could you explain why Jesus died for you and me?
Well,  if you’re looking for a miracle just look at you and me!
