This poem was read at my bother's funeral. It reflects his personality and his walk with the Lord. Telling Everyone* 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, I want to reach the dream of dreams, I want to see the face of faces, *Dedicated to the Glory of God, in memory of my brother, John Dale Campbell
By Steve Merka, 2000
Of our sins at
I want to sing to the highest,
Telling everyone of Your love.
Seeing all my family;
I want to go to Your Kingdom,
Telling everyone of Your Love.
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.
Our Music Minister at Faith Baptist Church, in Monroe, GA has been presenting songs at worship with a rock flavor. Earlier, this month, while returning from a hauling trip to North Carolina, the Lord laid these words on my heart, to the tune of Bad to the Bone. Jesus Is Bad© By Steve Merka, 2008 (To the tune of Bad to the Bone) Born of a virgin, in a small little town; Laid in a manager, with cattle around. This son of God, this son of man; Sent down to tell us, of God’s great plan. Chorus Jesus is bad, Jesus is bad.
Badder than Satan, Jesus is bad.
Bbbbbbbad, Bbbbbbbad, Bbbbbbbad
Jesus is bad, Jesus is bad
He grew up a teacher, and healer of all;
The Savior of any, who’ll answer the call.
He came here to save us, from our earthly sin;
Followed and trusted, by twelve good men.
(Chorus)
He’s tougher than Satan, He’s stronger than sin;
He’ll fight all our battles, so we can win.
Just trust and obey Him, and love all around;
His love is the greatest, that will ever be found.
(Chorus)
So, now listen to me, as I tell you the truth;
Jesus will use you, just like He did Ruth.
He’ll mold you and form you, to fit in His plan;
To save all of mankind, from sins of this land.
(Chorus)
