Keeping me from harm
Seeing that I have His love
In His outstretched arms

Every single prayer
What a comfort I can feel
Knowing that He hears

I will never doubt His love
What He wants will be

Holding me hearing me
Loving me watching me
Guiding me cares for me

Meant For God

Watching a squirrel 
Dangling
By his toes
Barely holding on
Trusting his grip
On the wire
Holding the bird feeder

Eating the seeds
Meant for the birds
Not for him
He doesn't care
Whose food it us
It's his
Today

Reminds me
Of the thief
Who comes
To steal
Steal our lives
Not meant for him

Meant for God
Our creator
Our provider
Our protector
Our deliverer
Our Savior

We open the door
To the enemy
Allow him in
Unwittingly

Open the door
To God
Let Him in
Willingly

The enemy
Will steal
God's blessings

God
Will restore
What the enemy steals

Resist
The enemy

Run
To God

Be
Blessed

You Will See Mercy

I cried unto the Lord 
Lord hear my cry
I'm trying so hard
But there's sin in my life
Oh Lord I desire
To please you th1s day
Why won't these thorns be removed

I wept before the Lord
Lord see my tears
I've been struggling with troubles
For too many years
Oh Lord my desire
Is to walk in your ways
Why won't these troubles subside

He said Mercy
I give you my mercy
All of your sin
and troubles too
Are under the blood
Mercy
All of my mercy
Just keep your eyes
Focused on me
And you will see mercy

I looked up at the Lord
Lord I need you
I need to look at your word
And not what I do
Oh Lord my hearts cry
Is To only see you
Then all these thorns
And all my troubles
Will fade away

As long as my eyes
Are looking at what's inside
These troubles will not ever die
But when I make my eyes
Look at my Lord on High
He will be the focus of my life

He said Mercy
I give you my mercy
All of your sin and troubles too
Are under the blood
Mercy
All of my mercy
Just keep your eyes
Focused on me
And you will see mercy

Only By The Blood

No amount of money 
No amount of wealth
Can buy a smidgen of my Saviors love
No amount of fame
Or power we possess
Can preserve a home for us above

No work that we can do
No favor or good deed
Can win eternal life in heavens home
No words that we can speak
Or invention we can make
Can cause our God to overlook our sin

It's only by the blood
He shed upon that treed
Only by the sacrifice
He made for you and me

Only when you ask the Lord
To forgive all your sin
Only when you ask Him
To take His place within

Only when He is your Lord
And Savior of your life
Only then will heaven be
Your home eternally

No other way to heaven
Has ever been supplied
Though many people think there is a way
No matter what they say
He said He is the way
And that is still the gospel truth today

His blood must be applied
To your life today
If you desire to stay away from hell
Please ask Him to come in
And make your heart His home
Then you will have a story you can tell

It's only by the blood
He shed upon that treed
Only by the sacrifice
He made for you and me

Only when you ask the Lord
To forgive all your sin
Only when you ask Him
To take His place within

Only when He is your Lord
And Savior of your life
Only then will heaven be
Your home eternally

Free

Free
Free from doubt
Doubt about my future
Doubt about which path to follow
Doubt about who is in control

Free
Free from fear
Fear of the future
Fear of the things from my past
Fear of falling into a trap

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity

Free
Free from shame
Shame about my sin
Shame about the words of my lips
Shame about who I have hurt

Free
Free from guilt
Guilt about who I have hurt
Guilt about my sinful past
Guilt about a wasted life

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity

Free
Free from worry
Worry about the provisions of life
Worry about who might hurt me
Worry about where I will find happiness

Now I am free
Free to have joy
Free to have peace
Free to have hope
Free to have His love

When I gave my life to Jesus
He set me free
And He keeps me free
For eternity

No Worries

I never have to worry
If you are here with me
Because your word tells
That's where you'll always be

I never have to worry
If you will hear my prayer
Because you word s true
When you say you'll lend an ear

The world may think it's silly
For me to have such faith
But I will just ignore them
And praise you all the way

I never have to worry
If you will strengthen me
When the trials come my way
Your strength is all I need

I never have to worry
If you will be on time
Your answer will come when
And however you decide

The world thinks I am crazy
To trust you all the way
But you have never failed me
No, not any single day

I think it's 'cause I praise you
From morning until night
life my voice in worship
You make all things right

And when I sing your prayers
My worries disappear
You come and fill my spirit
With words of peace and cheer

So I will go on praising you
Every moment, every day
And all my doubt and worry
Will swiftly fade away

My Souls’ Provider

If I had all the wealth
This world had to offer
I’d still be a pauper to Him

If I had all possessions
That made my life fun
I’d still lack all He has to give

I had many friends
That surround me each day
It would not compare to His love

If I had a big house
Where I could relax
It would pale to my mansion above

Incredible are His blessings
Marvelous is His love
Amazing is His provision
What He gives is always enough

The Fruit of the Spirit fulfill me
His mercy and grace never cease
As He walks with me every day of my life
I can rest in His wonderful peace

I will lift up His praise forever
I will worship His wonderful name
For He is my souls’ provider
Every day I will give Him my praise


Trust in God

Implicit Trust

I trust the Lord
Implicitly
No doubt
No confusion
No wondering

Many times
It’s not a matter of what
Or How
Or Why

It’s a matter of when
The answer will come

It’s in His hand
And on His schedule
Because
He knows what’s best
For me.

So I learn to wait
Wait for healing
Wait for deliverance
Wait for understanding
Wait for Him

And in my waiting
I praise Him
I rejoice
In His mercy
And grace

What an awesome God
I serve
He gives so much
To me
When I lift up
My prayer
He hears me
Yes He hears me
What an awesome God
I serve

Quiet Ruled The Night

Sometime in the night
I heard Him call my name
Quietly whispering His sweet words to me
I waited for His words
Yearning for His voice
Hoping He would tell me what would be

But quiet ruled the night
He did not speak again
I tried to recall what my Lord had said
His whisper was so faint
And I was half awake
I wasn’t sure what words were in my head

I took up pen and paper
And started to write down
Hoping it would spark my memory
But once I got the story down
Of how He woke me up
There was no more to write that I could see

I realized I’d missed it
I waited much to long
To write the words my Lord had said too me
I pondered getting up
To write what He had said
And once I took the pen the words did flee

A sadness filled my heart
As I lay back down to sleep
I knew that I had missed His word this time
I promise Him the next time
He starts to speak to me
I’ll quickly rise and write down every line.

If you’re awakened in the night
By the still small voice of God
Make sure you have a pen and paper near
You never know what He may say
Or what words will speak to you
Just open up your heart and lend an ear
