A Song

Once I sang a song to thee
My voice of praise, so loud and free
I sang with strength and dignity
No other did I care to please

Oh Lord, I sang every song for thee
For you Dear Lord, you set me free
Strength I needed, hope, and love
To continue on life’s journey, oh Lord above,

When everyone around failed me
You never left my side, not once
You suffered bled, and died for me
Yet I took for granted what you did at Calvary

But now I have a new song to sing
And I pray oh Lord, my song will bring
A fresh new joy to you, of Lord
‘cause all that I am, and all that I have I give to you

Life-Giving Words From my friend, Holly,
another truly inspirational writer!

God Whispers

When God whispers to you,
do you hear his voice?
Or have life’s struggles dulled your hearing
and caused a barrier between you
so that you cannot
hear Him at all?

Have you been caught up in life’s snare
and forgotten he’s even there?

His voice sounds like a mighty rushing wave
pounding fiercely against the trials
of your life
Yet knocking softly upon your heart asking,
‘May I come and dine therein? Where have you been?
I’ve whispered your name.
I trust you were not indulging in sin again.”

I knew I had, thus, I bowed my head
in shame and replied,
“Oh God forgive me this day;
Yes, I have sinned again.
Please forgive me Dear Lord.
Why did you make me so weak oh Lord?
I neglected my prayers, though even
worse Dear Lord, I became distracted
with life’s ambitions and forgot how to truly listen.
I didn’t hear you, when you whispered my name.”

The Reason I Smile

The joy of the Lord
Fills my heart,
No matter what
Is going on around me;
No matter the circumstances
In my life
Or in the world;
I can always form a smile!
The reason is simply Jesus!
When I think about the Lord  
And all the marvellous things He does,
I cannot help but smile!
Because He is risen and seated
At the right hand of God -- I smile;
Because He is full of justice and truth -- I smile;
Because He sees the hearts and minds
Of every man, woman and child -- I smile;
For I know the day is approaching
When mankind will no longer be able
To hide behind pretences and myths;
For the truth about the Son of God
Will be revealed to all!
The hour is coming
When every knee shall bow
And every tongue shall confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord!

That is the reason
I smile!

Discovery

One of the greatest
Discoveries I have made
Is finding out the Lord
Works through our pain!
Father God is acutely aware
Of life's hardships and heartbreaks;
He walks alongside us to hold us up,
And sometimes carries us
When we can't find the strength to carry on!
He is our comforter; our life preserver;
He is with us during
Life's storms and tornadoes;
He is there through the millstone of tears;
And the moments of utter wretchedness!
He stands as our pillar, our rock;
Preventing the waves of life's circumstances
From destroying us!
Through the various trials and tribulations
Life throws our way,
I have discovered we, all of us,  
Can emerge stronger and more assured
Of God's awesome grace!
For I have discovered
He is close to the broke in heart;
And binds up their wounds!
He will also never, ever leave
The righteous forsaken!
Praise His Holy name!
Amen!

Christ the lover of my soul
In Him I truly trust
His promises are awesome
And His dwelling place a must!

Receive the Lord and praise His name
Your heart He’ll fill with love
He’ll show you how to find the way
To live with Him above!

He came to earth to rescue me
This Jesus friend of mine

Oh, what a love divine!

Forever He will walk with me
He’ll teach me all His will
He’ll give me understanding

Thank You, Father, for this life
A witness I will be
Showing others how to live
In love and harmony!

I’ll worship You with joyful songs
That tell of Christ Your Son
Of how He came to save our souls
