A river flows from Calvary
Washing my sin away
The blood of Jesus flows so free
Sweet meercy from above
As grace has overcome my past
I pray the you’ll use me
To send a rivulet of love
To all I come to meet
For God so loved the world
That He sent His only Son
Now He sends me to share His grace
Each day to everyone
In response to the daily prompt
I dream I’m a new creation
Cancer has gone away
I keep on getting stronger
Every single day
I dream that my testimony
Will be shared for all to hear
That many good souls will find
That they have also been healed
I dream of people resonding
As I tell them of His great love
Souls will be saved and set free
By His power sent from above
I dream of many rejoicing
That their hope has been restored
The peace of God Invades their spirit
Theirs hearts are full of His joy
I dream of God’s people in worship
As we sing songs He’s given to me
That the atmosphere all around us
Will fillled with His Majesty
I dream all of this will bring glory
Only to God above
That He will be lifted higher
That He’ll fill us with His love
I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His birth
He left His heav’nly home to become a babe on earth
The worship of the angels was replaced by shepherds praise
As they laid Him in a manger filled with hay
What a humble act
The Fathers love displayed
That Christmas day
I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His life
He healed all those who came and made the dead alive
He taught about the kingdom as He walked from town to town
Authority displayed on earthly ground
What a humble act
The Fathers love relayed
To all who pray
I cannot think of Jesus without thinking if His pain
They beat Him and they whipped Him again and again
A crown of thorns they placed as the blood rushed down His face
Carrying His cross in such disgrace
What a humble act
The Fathers will obeyed
His Son He gave
I cannot think of Jesus without thinking of His death
The nails were through His hands and feet He struggled for His breath
Father please forgive them came His plea before He died
Then He gave His life for you and I
What a humble act
The Fathers grace came down
Became our own
I cannot think of Jesus without thinking that He lives
The stone was rolled away and His body was amiss
He showed Himself to thousands for death had no hold on Him
Victory over death and hell was His
What a triumph song
The Fathers power to save
Up from the grave
I always think of Jesus because He walks with me
Keeping me from harm through every stormy sea
He tells me that He loves me and His grace will cover me
He comforts me with His gentle peace
What a loving Savior
What a faithful friend
Lord of all creation
With me ’til the end
I rarely can see where He’s leading
I often must simply obey
My walk is by faith
As I quietly wait
While He leads my along the way
His plan will unfold before me
The road always turns for my good
No matter the test
My soul can find rest
When I know that He’ll carry me through
Lead me, Lord, lead me today
I’ll follow you through the fire
Lead me by your Holy Spirit
Your will is my desire
You always know my limitations
You stretch my faith further each day
I know I’ll come through
When I trust in you
As I quietly learn to obey
No test too hard
No trial to big
No turn to sharp
No time to think
Simply by faith
You’ll bring me through
As long as my faith remains
Lead me, Lord, lead me today
I’ll follow you through the fire
Lead me by your Holy Spirit
Your will is my desire
From the ashes I rise
As I look in His eyes
I soar to the skies
Like an eagle
My sins are erased
By His glorious grace
My heart filled with praise
For my Savior
Rise up
Let His love by your guide
Rise up
As He walks by your side
Rise up
Let the world know about His great love
Rise up
He has given new life
Rise up
Let your voice testify
Rise up
Let us boldly go forth for the Lord
Now heaven’s my home
I’m at peace in my soul
Jesus paid what I owed
At the cross
There’s a mansion for me
By the clear crystal sea
That’s where I will be
Evermore
Rise up
See the glory He brings
Rise up
Jesus Christ King of Kings
Rise up
Let the world know about His great love
Rise up
Your purpose is clear
Rise up
The world needs to hear
Rise up
Let us boldly go forth for the Lord
We shall rise on wings like eagles
We shall walk and not be faint
We shall run and not be weary
As we rise
He will give us words of wisdom
He will teach us how to pray
He will always go before us
To prepare the way
So rise up
Be a witness bold and strong
Rise up
For His coming won’t be long
Rise up
Tell them all the battles won
Rise up
Rise up
Rise up
Why should I ever worry
Why should I ever doubt
Why should I ever fear inside
When His thoughts are on me
Why should I fuss and fret
Why should I lose my peace
Why should my joy be down
When His mind is stayed on me
His thoughts are precious
Precious toward me
His thoughts are countless
Like sand by the sea
I cam not fathom
His love for me
His thoughts are precious
Precious to me
Why would my troubles throw me
Why would I oft feel lonely
Why would my hope escape me
When His precious thoughts touch me
Mercy abounding
Grace everlasting
Joy overflowing
Peace overwhelming
These are His thoughts
Precious toward me
His thoughts are precious
Precious toward me
His thoughts are countless
Like sand by the sea
I cam not fathom
His love for me
His thoughts are precious
Precious to me
I see you
Sitting in darkness
Covered by life
Smelly
Dirty
Overtaken in dismay
Disheartened
Defeated
Lost
I wonder
How you got there
What was you’re life
Successful
Happy
Enriched by children
Bright future
Victorious
Alive
Then it all fell apart
Crumbled
Like a house of cards
All gone
Job
Family
Respect
Position
One mistake
All gone
I don’t see
Your need
I blind myself
I shut my mind
I walk on by
Where is Christ
Where is mercy
Where is compassion
Where is love
Christ
Is in you
Calling out
Wanting me to turn
To open the door
To let you in
Christ
Is in me
Begging to act
To touch you
To heal you
To bring peace
Bring joy
I don’t listen
I walk on by
I fail
Help me, Lord
To open my eyes
And my heart
To you.
Lord, I thank you for my family
As we share this special day
You know they mean so much to me
In a multitude of ways
And especially I’m thankful
For the wife you’ve given me
She’s more thank I could ask for
She is my everything
I pray for those who are not blessed
With family on this day
Or for those who’ve lost a loved one
And don’t have the words to say
I ask that you would comfort them
In this theirytime of need
And help me to avail myself
To be their friend indeed
I thank you for my health dear Lord
For all that’s going right
Even though I have this cancer
That has given me a fight
I know that you will heal this
And my feet and shoulder too
So I thank you for my health
Because my healing comes from you
I pray for those who suffer
Through sickness and through pain
And do not trust you fully
To bring them health again
I pray you give me words to say
That will encourage them
And then they’ll know your healing
Will touch them in the end
Lord, I thank you for your joy and peace
They are with me all the time
I am filled with great awareness
Of the blessings that are mine
Your joy fills me abundantly
And helps me feel just fine
And your peace keep me from fear
When the trials are so nigh
I pray for those who suffer
With depression or dis-ease
And I ask your Holy Spirit
To bring comfort and bring peace
Help them feel the joy you promised
Down deep inside their soul
So that even in their troubles
Their heart will be made whole.
Lord, I thank you for salvation
You paid the price for me
When you gave your life a sacrifice
Your blood did set me free
You rule my life as Lord of love
And now I plainly see
Whom the Son of God has purchased
He has been set free indeed
I pray for those who don’t know you
That this Thanksgiving day
As we share about the blessings
That you have brought our way
That our words will reach their hearing
And someone will boldly say
How can I get salvation
I want to ask today!
Happy Thanksgiving to all. Have a blessed day!
Tomorrow is a day.
We stop to give our thanks
For all the things that bless our earthly lives
We gather with our loved ones
And eat a worthy feast
Remembering all the wonderfully good times
When we give our thanks for family
And those who eat with us
Will we also pray for those we know
Who a close one they have lost?
When we thank God for the meal we eat
So abundant and so good
Will we pray for those who have much less
And perhaps take them some food?
When we give thanks for all the things
That we have been blessed by
Will we pray for those in poverty
That a blessing they will find
When we give thanks to God above
For His salvation plan
Will we pray for those who don’t know Him
And give to them His plan?
When tomorrow comes it’s easy
To give our thanks to God
But this year let’s remember
That’s really not enough
Let’s lift our prayers for others
Who suffer through this day
Let’s lift our hands to help them
With aid along the way
Our blessings weren’t for us to hoard
And save up for some day
They were given so we can give
So let us find a way.
Yes, when tomorrow comes
Let the Golden Rule win out
We can change the world this way
By simple acts of love
I take some time this morning
To write a song for you
A song of thanks for all you’ve done for me
And in this song I lift my voice
And give you all the praise
Your love inspired this new melody
Thank you, Lord, for giving up
Your royal, heavenly throne
To come down to this earth
Only to die alone
Thank you for your courage
To fulfill your Father’s plan
Beaten and rejected
Yet you didn’t lift a hand
Thank you that you died for me
To take away my sin
Thank you that you rose again
So in heaven I will sing
Thank you for your mercy
That forgives me when I fall
Thank you for your grace
That supplies me for the call
Thank you for your joy
Thank you for your peace
Thank you for the hope
You’ve forever given me
Thank you for your love
That’s always there for me
Thank you for your Spirit
That guides and comforts me
The list of things to thank you for
Goes on and on and on
I bring it to a close right now
And end this thankful song.
The Psalmist
