Understanding the absolute necessity of 'Jesus' Sacrifice on the Cross', I wrote, 'Red' in 1974. Blood sacrifice was required in ancient times for having sins forgiven. The act had to be done each year. When Jesus was crucified, His Blood had the 'redemption power' to cleanse ALL sins...for all who repent, and Believe ON Him... '[they] will not perish, but have everlasting life' [John 3:16]. In many cultures, the color 'red' has an important meaning. I teach Feng Shui. Red is the color of 'good luck' in the ancient Chinese Dynasties. How God has 'laid the paths' of the coming of His Son, Jesus, as our 'Savior of the World'. Because of Jesus' Blood, anyone, anywhere, of any culture, background, and tradition, can simply sincerely pray when they feel the convicting 'Power of God', and be forgiven and go to heaven. None of us have to find a 'spotless lamb' and sacrifice it once a year. How can we not celebrate the sufferings of Jesus Christ for us...sufferings that resulted in His Resurrection and the Resurrection for all Believers. His Blood... 'a beautiful, dark, crimson, red'...is what I want others to focus on when I die...because...because He Died for me, I will live again.

When writing 'It's Guaranteed', I tried to point out how even the best of this world is only temporary...wealth can be extinguished by stock-market-crash; warm weather and beautiful blossoms end with winter; and good health ends with eventual death. But all of these things are eternal for Believers...because... 'Jesus bought them for us' ... with His Death on the cross. There's no night, no curse on the earth or man...no more pain or sorrow... "...for the former things have passed away..." and another scripture ... "...those who live and believe ON Me [Jesus said] shall 'never' die ..." Believers face only the 'sting' of death...but live eternally... 'It's Guaranteed'!

In life, we have our 'down days' and, occasionally, days of great joy. I was having one of those 'joy days' when I wrote 'With Jesus In Me I've Sweet Victory'. I guess it was kind'a like Mohammed Ali felt when he would shout 'I'm king of the world'. Or, maybe the feeling of leaning on the forward bow of the Titanic. As Believers, some days we just have to focus on our 'invincibility', through Jesus...like scriptures-- 'we are joint heirs with Christ'-- 'if God be for us, who can be against us', etc. Yes, we are frail in the flesh...but, someday 'this mortal will put on immortality'. I pray you will 'feel' the 'Victory' we have IN Jesus!

A few weeks before my Grandmother died [Maternal], she sat up in bed while very ill and said... 'They're calling me'. She was referring to my Mother and Uncle, who had died a few months before. After my 2nd sister died, I was thinking about the others who had passed away...Mom, Dad, Brother, and sister. This song was written as I meditated on the 'sounds of home', to me--laughter, greetings, hugs, and constant chatter. The pictures in the powerpoint are old, because Mama died in 1977, and Daddy died in 1982. Cherish your times with your families...pay close attention to the 'sounds'...someday, the 'sounds' replaying in your mind are all that is left of 'home'. Thankfully, those I've lost are in heaven... 'I am waiting to join them'.

Holiday Gatherings have some of the greatest memories of my life. Based on the actual events of my family, the intent of this song was not to depress anyone who heard it...but to motivate each listener to 'cherish' the gatherings they have with their family. We never know if one of our family-members will be 'missing' at the next gathering. Written after Daddy died, I attempt to walk you through the deepest sorrows of my life, and the account of how our family 'slipped away', when the 'rock' of our clan...Mama...was gone. Original recording was at Hilltop Studios in Nashville in 1986, and compiled in my '30th Anniversary of I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven' CD, at SonSound Studios in 2003. Take time to 'gather' with your family! There will come a time when... 'No One's Gathering'. [Pictures used in the powerpoint video are photos of my family...most of them from the 1970's...the one with me, Mama, and Daddy was taken in 1956.]

Spiritual strength increases with the right nourishment, just like the body's strength increases with the right nourishment. And 'Believer's' Strength comes from The Lord...through reading The Word, Prayer, and 'Sound' Teaching and Preaching. At some of our weakest times, when we raised our hearts through prayer to God, HE will sustain us! This song was recorded at Hilltop Studios in Nashville in the 80's and compiled on my album in 2003 by SonSound Studios. If you are a country fan, you may recognize the background music which was played by the original 'Alabama' Studio Musicians.

Written in 1980, 'It Just Means I'm Closer Home' is a relaxing melody, great for 4-part harmony. The more of my loved ones that are in heaven as time passes, makes me cherish the 'gift' of 'Eternity in Heaven', through 'Belief on Jesus'. I even use an old picture from Christmas, 1972, of my sisters and brother: L to R--Ethel, Helen, Charles, Betty, me. Betty and I are the only ones on this side of heaven. What a great reunion when we all are 'together' again.

Sitting in a subdivision...waiting on people to arrive to view the new homes...during some quiet time, I wrote this song. Challenges are a part of life. Concern for the future is a natural thing. But...I was happy in knowing that when this life is over, I knew where I was going. Not because I'm good or did good works...but because Jesus paid the price for my sin and I trusted Him as My Savior...I received the gift of Salvation...results... I'm Saved!

Originally recorded in 1986, my Grandmother, Lela Ethel Burgess-Nalley, had died a few years before. If you notice, my copyright is 1974. I wrote this song 10+ years prior to Grandma's death. The inspiration was Grandma telling me when she was in the room when 'her' mother died...hearing her mother's last words... 'God Bless you...meet me in heaven'. [As accounted in my book, 'Raised-Up Hard in the Georgia Pines'...available online and ebooks]. The testimony of my Great-Grandmother to my Grandma made a deep impression on me. Then, when it was Grandma's time to die, I was the only one with her as she 'passed on'. I knew, because of her profession of faith in Jesus, and because her life bore 'fruit' as she lived for Christ... I knew, she 'Would Be Home in the Mornin'!

The time for prayer is now. The time for concern for those who are planning to 'repent' and 'believe' in the future, is now. To most people, satan does not say 'the Bible is not the true Word of God'...or... 'you don't have to receive Jesus Christ as Savior to go to heaven when you die'. BUT, what satan DOES do is make everyone 'content' in their present state, AND, tell them... 'don't worry...you've got plenty of time'!. Plenty of time to 'get right with God'...plenty of time to 'prepare to die'. But as scripture teaches... 'don't boast yourself of tomorrow'. Will you risk missing heaven [for eternity], for a few years of pleasure? A 'life-change' starts with a 'heart-change'. '...believe ON--(the devil believes IN Jesus) the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved [from the penalty of sin]'. God Have Mercy...on us all.

The difference between a person's bad or good intentions, comes down to one word... 'Motive'. Do we have physical and material needs in this life? Yes! But, regarding life-choices and 'life-after-death', we need Jesus. Originally recorded in 1986 at Hilltop Studios in Nashville, this is one of the songs on my '30th Anniversary Album...I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven'. A simple song with a 'life-challenging' message. Are you seeking success, fame, and fortune, guided by the One who owns it all? And if you succeed in all these areas, can you pass the 'motive' test? 'That' test can keep us all grounded and with the right focus...because... 'All We Need Is Jesus'!

Too many people become 'defeated' when they have failed, yielding to temptation which caused their lives to be in turmoil and sometimes ruin. But...I've got good news! 'He's Not Thru' Usin' You'...I wrote this song for encouragement to us all...that, God 'specializes' in 'putting our pieces back together'. Our lives are fragile...our flesh is weak...but when we put our Faith in God...believing on His Son, Jesus, and making Jesus, Lord of our lives, God can 'transform' our 'pieces' and make us stronger in our brokenness. Be of Good Courage! 'He's Not Thru' Usin' You'!

We cannot begin to comprehend what it will be like when Jesus Calls us home. In, 'I Am Looking For Jesus' Coming', I tried to relay my feelings in simple terms, as I consider that 'day'. I wrote this song in 1987, and it was included on '30th Anniversay of I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven' CD, compiled in 2003, released by SonSound. How do you explain the events to come? First, the 'calling away' of Believers into heaven...then, after the tribulation on earth, the 'physical' return of Jesus, together with us...all on white horses...for the 'Millennial Reign of Christ'. We don't know the hour He is coming...but, scripture teaches, 'even a common man can see the red sky and know there's a storm coming'. The world looks pretty 'stormy' to me! I was asked by a 'teen'... "It's not fair that my friend says she's 'Born Again', is not living 'right', and is going to heaven." My response... "God is Just! If she is truly 'Born Again', yes she will go to heaven...but...we will be rewarded by our 'Faithfulness to God on Earth', by our 'appointed position' during the Millennial Reign of Christ when He comes back to Earth...and I wouldn't want to spend 1,000 years SHOVELING HORSE POOP, would you?" Well, would you?

In 1974, I wrote 'One Crown'. Scripture teaches, 'Believers' will receive multiple 'crowns' as rewards for 'faithful living for God' when we meet HIM, face to face. Knowing Jesus' Sacrifice, how could we 'not' lay all of 'our' crowns at HIS Feet...please share...God Bless!

In 1972 I wrote 'I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven'. It has been recorded by many groups throughout the years...here is the original that I recorded in the early 80's, and compiled on my album, '30th Anniversary...I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven', in 2003. Please share...God Bless! [Mechanical Licenses available... Yeje Music Co. [BMI}, gettingreadytogo@gmail.com ]

Written in 1974, recorded 1986 at Hilltop Studios, Nashville, with 'Alabama-Studio-Musicians', Just A' Workin' For My Lord is a fun Bluegrass Tune...Keyboards/ Gary Prim; Bass/ Jack Ross; Drums/ Clyde Brooks; Rhythm Guitar, Banjo, & Fiddle/ Bruce Watkins; Lead Guitar/ Greg Galbraith; Steel Guitar/ Sonny Garrish. 10 of my songs on '30th Anniversary of I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven', had these talented musicians on background. The PowerPoint is upbeat, using animals to explain the lyrics. Recording at Hilltop was a great experience.

Written in 1974; recorded at Hilltop, Nashville, in 1986, 'Mary Watched The Face of Jesus' is part of '30th Anniversary of I Want Us To Be Together In Heaven' CD. Because of Mary's 'Holiness', our Savior was in good hands. But, just think...she felt joy and pain for her children just as any mother does. Imagine her 'life-long' ordeal of watching her son die on a cross--knowing HE will rise again. When someone we love is suffering and dying, if they are a 'Believer', and we know they will go to heaven, do we grieve any less? Of course not. Mary suffered seeing her son beaten, maliciously...nailed to a cross...mocked by the crowd...and saw him never complain, but, willing to die--for 'her' and all of us! She is definitely the 'Bless-ed Mother'. I wrote this one day when my heart was heavy with the events of the cross, 'realizing' Mary watched.
