RAISED BY CHRIST - by Hector Perez

Raised by Christ from the depths of hell,
Oh, the depths of God's grace, my lips shall ever tell.

Raised by Christ from my dark despair,
No longer hopeless, my spirit joyfully declares.

Raised by Christ from this world's sinking sand,
On His unshakable Word forever, I'll stand.

Raised by Christ and healed from my spiritual blindness,
Oh, what riches of grace and incomparable kindness!

Raised by Christ from the valley and shadow of death,
I'm seated in heavenly places by my Life-Giver's breath.


And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages He might show the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 2:6-7 NIV

PIERCING THE DARKNESS by Hector Perez (My Story of Faith)

Life’s dark clouds often obscure the LIGHT, Only momentary for those who have heavenly sight. Relentless storms will seek to rattle your soul,  But nothing can stop you from pursuing God's imperative goal. The wick of hope flickers in times of dread, But the fire of hope shall not be doused in those who are Christ-led.  Deep darkness, ONE who descends truly knows, JESUS comes to save you from the power of death and makes your life aglow.

From a baby until now, you are my precious shining star, Who delights my heart from afar. Your smile, so bright fills my heart aglow, For I've seen how you prevailed through the many highs and frequent lows. You've suffered as a youth with so much pain, But always remember my precious princess that your suffering is not in vain. Just as the sun rises day after day, Embrace the truth that God is present at your side to give you a steadfast heart that is not frayed. God will strengthen your faith so keep running the race ahead, Embracing the eternal hope He gives you with wings outspread. I bless your 21 st  birthday with tears of gladness, Forever thanking our Heavenly Father for His promise to wipe away every tear of sadness! I LOVE you Anna, Daddy.
