The Power of One!

Noah stood alone and honoured God when…

The earth was full of godless and sinful men.

He dared to be different; he dared to obey

When wilfulness and sin were the order of his day

God’s heart was weary with all humankind

Their sinful revelling just blew His mind

He looked through the earth and He couldn’t see

More than one soul focused on eternity.

Noah helped God smile through His pain

Tho’ He wanted to destroy all, He thought again

God said: Hey, Noah, I want you to see

How eternally rewarding the Power of One can be!

Tho’ there’s only you below who seeks My face

I’ll save your whole family, and preserve your race.

You alone find favour in my My sight down there

That’s good enough for Me your family to spare

Through My wrath and pain you have clearly shown Me

One human’s enough to switch to plan B

So come on My man, let’s work together

Take hammer and saw and the flood we will weather

You and I, Noah, are more than enough

To take on demons of darkness and call their bluff

Let’s go!

‘What Would Jesus Do’ is a band on my wrist

Do I really act on it when my life takes a twist?

What do I do when life overwhelms?

Do I say: Peace! Be Still! Take charge at the helm?

When a demon dares accost me, do I run in fear?

Or like Jesus say: Be quiet. Get out. Don’t ever step back here.

When my friend’s forsake when I need them most

And have begged them for me to pray

Do I sink into depression, or like Jesus simply say:

They do love me, I know they do, and yet they are weak

It’s OK, let them slumber on, it’s my Father I will seek

I’ll keep loving them as though they never forsook me

And be there for them, always near, right through eternity

Let this band on my wrist be more than my fashion statement

Let it be my way of living, coz that’s what the author meant!
