The Kingdom of God is Like This (lyrics)

[Verse 1] The Kingdom of God is like a tiny seed, Sown upon the earth in simple deed. Night and day it quietly grows, How, the sower never knows. First the blade, then full ripe grain— God alone brings forth the gain. [Chorus] Oh, the Kingdom of God is like a growing seed, Hidden in the earth, yet bearing fruit indeed. From the smallest start to branches spreading wide, Where the birds of heaven safely come and hide. Though our eyes can't see the work begun, God is growing His Kingdom till His will is done. [Verse 2] The Kingdom of God is like the yeast in bread, Hidden in the flour till the whole is fed. Silent is its work, yet strong its power, Changing all within from hour to hour. Little things become God's mighty plan— He transforms the world and heart of man. [Chorus] Oh, the Kingdom of God is like a growing seed, Hidden in the earth, yet bearing fruit indeed. From the smallest start to branches spreading wide, Where the birds of heaven safely come and hide. Though our eyes can't see the work begun, God is growing His Kingdom till His will is done. [Bridge] The Kingdom of God is like a hidden treasure found, Or one great pearl of everlasting worth renowned. Gladly all is given, joyfully we part With every lesser thing to gain His heart. Nothing in this world can e'er compare With all the riches waiting for us there. [Verse 3] The Kingdom of God is like a casting net, Gathering every soul that it has met. When the harvest comes, the King will reign; Justice and mercy shine through every name. Last and first are welcomed by His grace— Every humble heart will find its place. [Outro] The Kingdom comes like seed beneath the sod, Quietly unfolding by the hand of God. Hidden now, yet one day every eye shall see The fullness of His glorious victory. So let the seed take root and grow— His Kingdom comes... His Kingdom grows... Forevermore.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

As Little Children Do

Step into the pure joy, wonder, and intimacy of God’s family with "As Little Children Do", a Scripture-based worship song. Produced through prayer and deeply rooted in Scripture, this uplifting worship song explores the heart of Jesus' teaching that we must receive the Kingdom of God like a little child (Matthew 18:3, Matthew 19:14, Mark 10:14–15, and Luke 18:16–17). It's intended to be sung by both children and adults alike, and is not meant to be only for children.

Sung by a vibrant children's vocal ensemble (synthetically generated) with warm, acoustic-driven instrumentation, this song takes listeners on a clear biblical and emotional journey: • Childlike Coming to God: Approaching the Lord with humility, dependence, trust, and open hearts. • Receiving the Kingdom: Embracing the central truth of the Gospels—that the Kingdom belongs to such as these. • Belonging to God's Family: Resting in the Father's embrace as brothers and sisters, sons and daughters. • Royal Identity: Celebrating the balance of God's majestic reign and His deep personal intimacy as "Abba, Father." • Joyful Worship: Expressing the natural response of children who know they are fully loved, redeemed by the cross, and brought out of darkness into His marvelous light. Musical Style & Instrumentation • Vocals: Joyful, jubilant young voices featuring call-and-response sections, a lead child vocal, and warm echo harmonies. • Instruments: 12-string acoustic guitar fingerpicking, warm grand piano, melodic upright bass, soft ambient synth pads, tambourine, maracas, and light drums. "Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it." — Mark 10:15

Overcomers

Welcome to the official worship lyric video for "Overcomers," a powerful modern hymn declaring the victory we have through Jesus Christ. No matter the trials, battles, or dark seasons we walk through, we stand firm on His unchanging Word, clothed in His armor, and anchored in His finished work on the cross.

Scripture Basis 

Romans 8:37 (NIV) — "No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." 1 John 4:4 (NASB): "You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world." Revelation 12:11 (KJV) — "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death."

Overcomers (lyrics)

[Verse 1] In a world of trial, a world of pain, Where shadows gather and hopes seem slain, We take our stand on the Savior's Word, The voice of truth that the nations have heard. Though the fire burns and the battle is long, Christ is our refuge, our strength and song. Bearing the cross, we will not turn away; Faithful to Jesus, we'll stand today. [Chorus] We overcome by the blood of the Lamb, By the word of our testimony we stand. Greater is He who is living in us; Strong in the name of our Lord Jesus. Christ has triumphed; victory's won. Our victory rests in God's own Son. [Verse 2] Not in our own strength do we fight, Strong in the Lord, in His power and might. Clothed in His armor, we stand unashamed, Holding the shield of faith in His name. Standing firm on His faithful Word, Trusting each promise we have heard. Submitting to God, every lie must flee; The victory is Christ's, and the victory is free. [Bridge] We will not love this passing life More than our Savior crucified. Though we walk through fire or sword, Nothing can separate us from our Lord. We will not cling to fleeting breath; Faithful to Jesus, even through death. He who endures till the race is won Will hear, "Well done," from God's own Son. [Final Chorus] We overcome by the blood of the Lamb, By the word of our testimony we stand. Greater is He who is living in us; Strong in the name of our Lord Jesus. Christ has triumphed; victory's won. We overcome through God's own Son. Death has no victory, fear has no claim; All of hell trembles at Jesus' name! Death has no victory, fear has no claim; All of hell trembles at Jesus' name! [Outro] To the one who overcomes, the promise remains: He makes all things new; His kingdom shall reign. No more sorrow, no more tears, No more death, no more fears. Forever His people, forever His own; Forever with Jesus before His throne. Forever we worship our Savior and King, Singing, "Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (at home forever...) Singing, "Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (lifting eternal praise...) To the one who overcomes, the promise remains: He makes all things new; His kingdom shall reign. No more sorrow, no more tears, No more death, no more fears. Forever His people, forever His own; Forever with Jesus, forever at home. Forever we worship our Savior and King, Singing, "Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (at home forever...) Singing, "Hallelujah! Hallelujah!" (lifting eternal praise...)

The Story of the Savior | The Message of His Love

"The Story of the Savior" is a narrative-style Christian worship song that follows the beautiful redemption story of Jesus from beginning to end, telling the complete story of Jesus Christ—from the glory of heaven, to the humble manger, to the cross, the empty tomb, His ascension, and the Great Commission to proclaim the gospel to the ends of the earth. Inspired by the truth of Scripture, this song traces His journey from leaving the glory of the Father to be born in Bethlehem, His earthly ministry of healing and grace, His sacrificial death on the cross, His victorious resurrection, and His return to heaven after entrusting His followers with the greatest mission ever given—to share the gospel, the best news ever heard.

My desire in writing this song was to capture the full story of our Savior in a single worship anthem—a song that reminds us of who Jesus is, what He accomplished for us, the incredible price He paid for our salvation, and the hope we have because He lives. May it encourage believers, point seekers to Christ, and inspire all who hear it to faithfully proclaim His message of love and redemption. "The Story of the Savior" features heartfelt, narrative-style vocals with acoustic 12-string guitar, grand piano, violin, cello, and French horn, creating a warm and reverent worship atmosphere that keeps the focus on Christ and His gospel. "From the glory of the Father... to the manger... to the timber... to the empty tomb... and back to heaven—the greatest story ever told." May the story of our Savior never cease to be told, from the rising of the morning to the setting of the sun.

The Story of the Savior (lyrics)

[Verse 1] From the glory of the Father, down to earth he came, Leaving heaven for this world, in a lowly human frame. Born of a virgin mother, in the dust of Bethlehem, A miracle of the Spirit, the light for all of men. [Chorus] Oh, the story of the Savior, told in shadow and in light, From the manger to the timber, through the darkness of the night. He bore the weight of every sin, upon that rugged tree, And in the breaking of the day, he rose to set us free. [Verse 2] Anointed in the valley, with the power and the grace, Jesus walked the dusty road, to touch the weary face. He healed the broken-hearted, and the captives he set free, Proving God was walking there, for all the world to see. [Chorus] Oh, the story of the Savior, told in shadow and in light, From the manger to the timber, through the darkness of the night. He bore the weight of every sin, upon that rugged tree, And in the breaking of the day, he rose to set us free. [Verse 3] They nailed him to the timber, on the hill of jagged stone, He bled to buy our freedom, he suffered all alone. But death could not contain him, on the third day he arose, Appearing to the chosen ones, as the morning softly glows. [Bridge] He gave to us the mission, to carry forth the Word, The gospel of the ages, the best news ever heard. The Judge of all the living, and the dead beneath the ground, He is the One appointed, where the mercy can be found. [Outro] So lift your voice and carry, the story evermore, Of the One who came to save us, and open up the door. From the rising of the morning, to the setting of the sun, The message of His love, is the work that He has done. "He gave to us the mission, to carry forth the Word, the gospel of the ages, the best news ever heard."

From Glory to Glory (lyrics)

[Verse 1]

The old has passed, and shadows fade away 

My heart is open to a brand new day 

Once a captive, now I stand by grace 

To look upon the Savior, with unveiled face 

For where the Spirit dwells, there’s liberty 

The chains are broken, and my soul is free 

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me

From glory to glory

Ever more like Jesus

Into His image  

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me

From glory to glory

Ever more like Jesus

Into His image  

[Verse 2]

The Spirit gives the life that makes me whole

Forming Christ within my heart 

Not a fading splendor, but one that lasts 

A surpassing glory eclipsing the past 

Renewing my mind, my heart pure and new 

I’m being molded, Lord, to look like You 

[Bridge]

Unveiled before Your throne, I see the radiance grow

From the depths of who I am, let Your likeness show

Chosen by the Father, by Your grace, divine

Transform me, Lord, let Your beauty shine 

The glory that remains, the glory that’s real 

Seal it in my spirit, Your image reveal!  

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me

From glory to glory

Ever more like Jesus

Into His image  

[Short 5-second guitar solo]

[Chorus]

Holy Spirit, transform me

From glory to glory

Ever more like Jesus

Into His image  

[Outro]

Ever-increasing, ever-changing, more like You

From glory to glory, in everything I do

My life now hidden in Christ is changed

Transformed forever, in Your holy Name

The Crimson Flood (Lyrics)

[Verse 1]

In the shadows of our deepest shame

We searched for mercy, we called Your name

Bound by the debt we could not pay

Until the turning of the day

For in Him we have the grand release

The quiet wonder of a perfect peace

Through His own blood, the ransom price is shown

The riches of His grace are clearly known.

[Chorus]

Oh, the blood, the crimson flood

That washed away the stains of sin

The life He gave, the soul to save

To let the light of heaven in

From the altar of the cross it flows

The deepest love that ever rose

Redeemed by the blood, we stand made whole

The anchor for the weary soul.

[Verse 2]

How much more now, since we are justified

By the life of Him who bled and died

Safe from the wrath that was meant for me

Saved by His life, we are finally free

No longer marked by the weight of the fall

He answers our hearts when we hear the call

Peace with the Father, through the open gate

His love has conquered the hand of fate.

[Bridge]

We walk in the light as He’s in the light

No more the terror of the dark of night

The fellowship held in the sacred vine

Cleansed by the blood, a grace so divine

He washed us clean from every past stain

In the healing power of the Lamb who was slain.

[Chorus]

Oh, the blood, the crimson flood

That washed away the stains of sin

The life He gave, the soul to save

To let the light of heaven in

From the altar of the cross it flows

The deepest love that ever rose

Redeemed by the blood, we stand made whole

The anchor for the weary soul.

[Outro – slower, reverent]

To Him who loves us, who set us free,

From all our sins by His own blood;

Our chains forever fell away,

Leading us from darkness into day.

To Him be the glory, 

the power, the crown,

For the King who laid 

all His majesty down.

Sing a New Song

Ten years ago, my 10-year-old son Christopher wrote a beautiful worship chorus (Part A below) that our family has loved and sung for years. Recently, I decided to breathe new life into it by adding fresh verses and composing a brand-new melody with the help of the Mozart musical AI app. We hope this expanded, AI-enhanced version blesses your worship time just as much as the original has blessed our family.

Do You Want to Know Him?
If you want to know Jesus personally, you can. It all begins when you repent and believe in Jesus.  Do you know what God's Word, the Bible says?

“Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.’” (Mar 1:14b-15).  He preached that we must repent and believe.

Please see my explanation of this in my post called "Do You Want to Know Jesus?"

Laborers in the Harvest

A powerful tribute and harvest song, written in June 2026.

The Story Behind the Song

I wrote this song using musical AI assistance and personally produced the video using Cyberlink PowerDirector. This project holds a very special place in my heart, and I want to deeply thank my wife, Jennifer, and my son, Joseph, for their invaluable input and support.

A Special Tribute

The lyrics for the outro (Reap Children Reap) hold a sacred history. They are based on a song written in 1992 by my dear, late friend and brother in Christ, Chuck Zierle. Bringing his words into this modern piece is a beautiful way to honor his memory and lasting legacy in faith.

Scriptural Foundation

The heart of this song is rooted deeply in the biblical call to the harvest fields:

• Psalm 126:5-6 – Sowing in tears, reaping in joy.
• John 4:35-36 – Fields white for harvest.
• Matthew 9:37 – The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few.
• John 9:4 – Working while it is still day.

May this song stir your spirit, encourage your heart, and bless your walk with Christ! 

You can watch it here on Rumble or view it below, where I have also included the lyrics. Here is a short version of just the outro.

Laborers in the Harvest

Verse 1: The Sacrifice

Those who sow in tears

Will reap with songs of joy.

He who goes out weeping

Carrying seed to sow

Will return with songs of joy

Carrying sheaves with him.

Chorus: The Awakening

Open your eyes!

Look at the fields!

The harvest is ripe

The laborers few.

Verse 2: The Urgency

We must work while it’s day

And walk the narrow way;

For night comes soon

When no man can work

So let us serve and not shirk;

While the light’s still on our way

Let us work while it’s yet day.

Outro: The Call

Can’t you hear Your Master calling?

Reap! Children, Reap!

Can’t you hear Your Master calling?

Reap! Children, Reap!

(repeat 2 times)

Can’t you hear your Master calling?

Reap! Children, Reap!

Before the evening shadow’s falling,

Reap! Children, Reap!

(repeat 2 times)
