Songs/Poems

In August of 2000, I was blessed by receiving words from God to be written in either song, or poem, form. It began with Up On Calvary and has continued some 50 plus songs/poems later with Jesus Is Bad, written earlier this month. In between those two songs, I have been given words relating to life, mine and others, which I will share with you on this page, thoughout the year. Some of these songs/poems have music and some do not. Some have been recorded and if possible to place those on this page, I will do so. In the meantime, please enjoy what God has given and please feel free to express your thoughts.

This poem/song is dedicated to my brother, Dale Campbell, who passed away November, 2003. He was a great brother, wonderful husband and father and a true soldier for God.

Telling Everyone*

Steve Merka

I want to dance in Your Light

To the music of my heart;

I want to bathe in salvation,

Telling everyone of Your love.

I want to share your forgiveness,

Of our sins at Calvary;

I want to sing to the highest,

Telling everyone of Your love.

I want to reach the dream of dreams,

Seeing all my family;

I want to go to Your Kingdom,

Telling everyone of Your Love.

I want to see the face of faces,

Viewing Jesus Christ my Lord;

I want to kneel at the cross,

Telling everyone of Your Love.

And when my time is over,

And earthly breath’s no more;

I want to say my last few words,

Telling everyone of Your love.

*Dedicated to the Glory of God, in memory of my brother, John Dale Campbell

This is the very first poem/song God allowed me to write. It is based on something my mother, Lucille Merka, used to say to me: "Blood is thicker than water." She fell to cancer in December, 1966. I still miss her, every day of my life.

Upon On Calvary*

Blood’s thicker than water,

Is what I’ve always heard;

Ever since my childhood days,

Long, long ago.

But I’m here to tell you,

That ain’t really true;

Blood’s thicker than everything,

Including my sin

Jesus Christ died for me,

Up on Calvary;

Laid down his life for me

Up on Calvary.

His blood has wash away

All my sin and grief

And given me freedom

And much needed relief.

Just look around and you’ll see

What I’m talking about

Jesus Christ is everywhere

In all the world though out.

Jesus Christ died for me,

Up on Calvary

Laid down is life for me

Up on Calvary.

His love is waiting for you

Just like it did for me;

You too can feel the joy

You too can see.

That Jesus Christ died for you

Up on Calvary

Laid down his life for you

Upon on Calvary
