LORD, HOW TO SERVE?

Lord, How to Serve?


There Must be Something More that I could Do... ta Share the Love in Me with All aRound. Like Tell the World aBout the Joy I've Found, in My own Little Way of Servin' You! Now, Neighbor, You've got certain Gifts to Share, though What they Are just Might esCape you Now. But If you'll Ask, the Lord will Show you HOW: a Special Way ta Show some Lovin' Care! I Wish you All you Need, and Great sucCess, sucCess in Doing What's God's Will fer You. And If you'll Hang In There, and Follow Through, your Ev'ry Effort Allah's Gonna Bless! How aBout That?

THE CASE FOR PEACE

The Case for Peace


At Times I've Felt disCouraged, Haven't You? Now, What's our Move, when Moral Weakness Comes? Yes, Things kin Look quite Dark when Someone Bums, but Always There is Something Kind ta Do. You Might could Show your Care fer Neighbors Near; you Might just Need ta Take Good Care of YOU! To Thine own Self be Ever Kind and TRUE, but Love the Lord and EV'ryBody, Hear? That's Common Sense for EV'ryOne ta Do, so Now it's Up ta US ta Follow THROUGH! Ain't That Right?

MORE LIGHT

More Light

WherEver Humans Big or Tiny Live, it Isn't Right to Waste a Single One. Each Needs the Loving Care the Christ can Give, that Heaven's Will by All of Us be Done. Yet Some reBel, they're Sure that's Just not True; "That's Cruel!" many Folks are Prone ta Say. "Why Love, there's Other, Urgent Things ta Do!" "We Just don't NEED that Human Life toDay." So Life beGins ta Flow right Down-the-Drain; our World is Torn aPart both Left-and-Right. ENOUGH of Murders, FearfulNess, and Pain! How Do we DARE ta Sin aGainst the Light? How do we DARE, I'm Askin' You!
