A summer of promise
Delight ahead
Hurricane fear ever near
We had so much to do
Loved ones exited
New places to live
We’re still here
New Orleans has become dear
The time sped
Joy enjoyed, film, food, fun
The end of summer nears
A new school year dawns
We have much to do
Little time to do it
Even though we’ve been here before
This school year is brand new

Lord, You are the One Who shows me who I am
Lord, You are the One Who led me to the Lamb
Lord, You are the One Who turns my night to Day
Lord, You are the Truth, the Light, the Way!
When I was a baby, I screamed at my first thirst
I wanted what I wanted and Selfishness at Worst
I grew up thinking I was god; the sun rose at my beck
But light revealed the darkness; my life was now a wreck
I didn’t see the Truth; I lived in satan’s lie
He told me food that filled me was something I must buy
He warned that others stood to take the things that should be mine
So wars were staged, and people hurt that I could feel just fine
The years bore down and broke the crown I’d placed upon my head
I’d drank his wine and ate his bread, but still I felt unfed
I fainted from the weakness of the place to which he’s led
Sinfulness had brought me here and I lived among the dead
In the middle of this tragedy I hear a soft Voice say,
“You’re lost and doomed without Me, this is no place to stay.”
I knew the Voice had spoken true and I must flee with haste
All I held had melted fast; my life was a disgrace
My soul cried out, “Please take my hand!” I felt His presence strong
He said, “Don’t fear. Just follow Me. I’ve been here all along.”
“I know My sheep. They hear My voice.” And then I knew His name!
Jesus led to pastures green! I’ve never been the same!
Lord, You are the One Who shows me who I am
Lord. You are the One Who led me to the Lamb
Lord. You are the One Who turns my night to Day
Lord, You are the Truth, the Light, the Way!
He taught me how see His world through His different eyes
He touched my ears and let me hear the hell in satan’s lies
He fed me food that had no cost, and wine He called His blood
His words had washed my guilt away, like a cleansing flood.
I learned to die that I might live, and give that I might gain
I found that Lamb become a Lion that ever more will reign!
I found that now is not the care; and I am not the star
I am my Brother’s Keeper now; Eternity’s not far!

Moses recorded their starting places according to their journeys by the command of the Lord… Numbers 33:2
STARTING PLACES
This is the place to speak your heart
As you stand on the Galilee shore
Jesus walked all over this place
He’s walked your path before
What is it that He wants you to do?
That no one else can do
You’ve known awhile and yet you drag
Maybe it’s time for you to do
Speak to Him from the depths of your soul
Give Him all of your fear
Tell Him the things that are stopping you
He will give His strength to you
Now’s the time, this is the place
Make your covenant anew
Before you leave be sure to write
That thing He wants you to do

We traveled quickly from Ben Gurion to Mashabei Sade
Our bodies haven’t caught up to our distance of 8,000 miles
Hearts and minds are focused on the morning
Our touring will begin and we will see Israel
It is very different from our home, an understatement
We have deep spiritual ties to this place, this land called Israel
Stop one will be Beersheva, the Well of Oath
Our learning begins here at an event 3,500 years ago
An oath created security for Abraham and his people
His oath assured them of a home and a place to belong
Abraham’s oath enabled them to have community
This place they lived was their own
We gave an oath to Christ -He gave us new life
The Lord is in our life-the Holy Spirit leads us
We live our life by our oath, Jesus I belong to You
Our eternity began then; our new life in Christ
Our tour begins it is a journey of discovery
We will be surprised by some of what we see
The Lord will speak to us somewhere along the way
I will pray with you as you walk the “Land of the Bible”
