I Am A Citizen of Heaven

by Mark Kaven Lazaro

I don't understand why they are opposing

They are rejecting me like spiting unwanted food

Behind of my intention to save them from dying

Making believe to the one most great God

As I journey in this world I feel stranger

For everything comes against my culture

Behind of how I utter is to save them from danger

Yet they look sharply like a vulture

Then someone told me who's like me

"Brethren this world is not our home"

Now I know why they are use to be 

I am a citizen of heaven someday I will come 

Give and Thou shalt be Given

Sometimes you feel lucky having great possessions

You feel you will never go needy and poor

Eating in lofty chair, living in palace and mansions

That is your style like the rich man and Lazarus on the floor

Your hands are always close to release

But always open to accept great things

Like the Dead sea that no place for water to ease

Don't wait the time, one day God will cut your wings

The bible says give and thou shall be given

What if the shower should stop and never be back

If you want to stay, be an eagle not raven

 Also try to share blessings then everything never be lack

You Are My Everything

I believe You're the author of my story

Every time You write Its pages

There are Your great plan and will for me

I believe You're the healer of my wandering heart

Every time I've been hurt and broken

There's Your love that cures my heart

You are my God who created my world and myself

My Jesus who saved me

The Lord that I serve

My loving Friend and my King

You are my everything

I believe You're the provider to all my needs

Every time I utter my prayers

Before I ask You knew it indeed

I believe You're my Father that won't let me go

Even I try to escape and follow myself

You're still there, loving me yes You do

Great Are You that Saved My Life

by Mark Kaven Lazaro

I was alone in the dark 

Where it's like God did not created light

Walking in endless shadow

Oh no I can't find the way out

I was walking in the quicksand

While I'm going, I'm sinking

My feet didn't move to escape

Shouting  for help but there's nothing

I was in the wild river

Going where it goes I couldn't resist

Pushing me 'till I drown and die

No rocks, no boat to ask for rescue

Almost dead when I heard You

Saw you, and giving your hands

You saved me from death

Just like the hero and the heroine 

Full of danger is this world we stand on

My voice to sing all praises is not enough 

To thank you requires my whole life

Great is You that saved my life

Why Is It So Hard to Follow

Why is it so hard to follow

Even all He wants is the best

And greatest love he wants to show

Just obey and He will do the rest

Why is it so hard to thank

When our lives are ruined and miserable

We are like a money-less bank

We seem to destroy, we're close to crumble

Try to look what the LORD commanded

In the book of Matthew chapter six you find

Those promises has power for you to be persuaded

Trust and obey to set free from being blind

Your Love

Everyday of living having you is a blessing

Like a great treasure that I possess 

Loving me is the reason why I  sing

Yet making story or poem for your greatness

You are my shelter Oh LORD

the strong rock which I tightly hold

You are my potter Oh LORD

I let your hands work in me to mold

I know that I am safe in your side

The dangers and harms of this life couldn't reach me

For you always keep me abide

To change is the thing you'll never be

I love the way you love 

Using my voice all my life is not enough

To thank for setting me like dove

You are always before me, in good even rough

Never Alone

From the start you showed me the love

You gave me life and chance to live in this world

I was molded like clay and free like dove

I'm glad you are there with your goodness untold

In times of happiness You are there

A hidden friend that wants the best

In times of trouble You are there

Like the a bird that fight for eggs from nest

You lift me up when I'm down

You make me whole when I'm broken

You give me strength and joy when I'm frown

You touch my heart when I'm sullen

I'd walked away from You

I'd journeyed but felt alone

I'd thought you're not there

But I was amazed you lead me home

Never alone, never alone

I'll won't run from you again

You always by my side, always sojourn

You work in my life yet not in vain

From the East and West

North and South you are in everywhere

Now my life has been blessed

I'll never be alone, because You are there
