Bells of Salvation
By Paul Wilson


The church bells ring Sunday morning
inviting all to come inside
Come and hear about the father
and his son Jesus Christ who died

Read the bible and sing his praise
giving thanks for all he has done
Experience his suffering
Jesus died for all ...not just one

That day on Calvery he died
when soldiers nailed him to the cross
As non believers stood and watched
Jesus cried a tear for souls lost

Many a tear was shed that day
as Mother Mary knelt to pray
His body taken from the cross
brought to a cave where it would lay

Soldiers stood guard at the entrance
to cave… his body entombed there
In three days the stone was removed
no body was found anywhere

Where is he? the question asked
by those who saw him there before
To find out the answer we must
do as Jesus ask…nothing more

Now with his father in heaven
he waits to greet us one by one
As long as there are sinners here
his work on earth is never done

The preacher tries to save lost souls
each day for the father and son
Listen closely to what he says
thru God our life has just begun

(big hugggssssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, I too weep for Him ever so much, yet I know He is free and I wish to follow His command and set a good example and preach what He practiced, just as I carefully hear what other preachers are practicing and find semblance! (wipes tears) This is very heartfelt, sweet friend, you deserve angel hugs for this wonderful write, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Paul, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
