1 ~ SONG ~ "CHUNK OF COAL" BY BILLY JOE SHAVER

I'M JUST AN OLD CHUNK OF COAL

BUT I'M GONNA BE A DIAMOND SOMEDAY

I'M GONNA GLOW AND GROW

TILL I'M SO BLUE PERFECT

I'M GONNA PUT A SMILE ON EVERYBODY'S FACE

I'M GONNA KNEEL AND PRAY EVERY DAY

LEST I SHOULD BECOME VAIN ALONG THE WAY

I'M JUST AN OLD CHUNK OF COAL, NOW LORD,

BUT I'M GONNA BE A DIAMOND SOMEDAY

I'M GONNA LEARN THE BEST WAY TO WALK

I'M GONNA SEARCH AND FIND A BETTER WAY TO TALK

I'M GONNA SPIT & POLISH MY OLD RUGGED-EDGE SELF

TILL I GET RID OF EVERY SINGLE FLAW

I'M GONNA BE THE WORLD'S BEST FRIEND

I'M GONNA GO AROUND SHAKING EVERYBODY'S HAND

HEY I'M GONNA BE THE COTTON-PICKING RAGE OF THE AGE

I'M GONNA BE A DIAMOND SOMEDAY

5 ~ Jean Thoughts(mine & others) A friend in Ohio

put this (( JeanSongIONL ))) I wrote on her website a few weeks ago

"GO TELL JESUS"

I HAVE TO GO TELL JESUS MY EVERY THOUGHT

I HAVE TO GO TELL JESUS MY EVERY FAULT

I HAVE TO GO TELL JESUS WHAT MAKES ME CRY . . .

HE SAYS ~~~I KNEW YOU WOULD BE HERE

(AFTER AWHILE)

THAT'S WHY I AM HERE!

BECAUSE I KNEW "YOU" WOULD BE HERE

(AFTER AWHILE)

BECAUSE YOU ARE "MY CHILD!"

BECAUSE YOU ARE "MY CHILD!

BECAUSE YOU ARE "MY CHILD!"

PSALM 23

(((The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want ~ He maketh me to lie down in green pastures. He leadeth me beside the still water ~ He restoreth my soul. He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name's sake ~ Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me. Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me ~ Thou preparest a table before me. Thou anointest mine head with oil. My cup runneth over ~ Surely, goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord, forever.)))

ONE GLORIOUS DAY JESUS CAME AND

MADE ME WHOLE.

HE SO COMPLETELY DID SATISFY

MY SOUL.

AND AS I WALK THROUGH LIFE'S

TROUBLED SEA

I WONDER IF HE IS SATISFIED

WITH ME?

NEWpoem ~ RESCUE ME. . . ~

Rescue me. . .

I heard her softly say. . .

"Rescue me. . .

I'm so lonely

(no friends around)

Rescue me. . .

for most people

don't understand

that just a touch

of the hand

and, sometimes

to be included

in your plans

means so much

to the lonely

in this land.
