Out of the Fog

There are times when I am restless
There are times when I am down
There are times when life seems useless
And I feel so all alone
In those days when I am weary
I will go to God In Prayer
When I bring to Him my query
I will find an answer this

He hears my cry
All the time
He hears my prayer
He’s always there
I never have to worry or be afraid
Because I know that I have prayed.

There are times when I am hungry
There are times when I’m in doubt
There are times I feel unworthy
When my faith has given out
In those days when I am weary
I will lift my voice in praise
When I bring Him all the glory
He will bless all of my days

He hears my cry
All the time
He hears my prayer
He’s always there
I never have to worry or be afraid
Because I know that I have prayed.

I’ll cry out to Jesus
I’ll lift up His name
He is my refuge
He lights my way
When I am down
When I feel lost
Jesus will lift me
Out of the fog

He hears my cry
All the time
He hears my prayer
He’s always there
I never have to worry or be afraid
Because I know that I have prayed.

 

He’s Always Enough

When I think of His mercy
His wonderful mercy
My heart has to give Him praise to

And when I think of His grace
Amazing grace
I lift up His holy name

When I think of the day
He died for me
I’m awed by His undying love

When I think that He’s with me
Every day
I know that He’s always enough

He’s always enough for me
He meets all my deepest needs
When I was lost
He paid the cost
He’s always enough for me

When I think of this world
And all that it offers
It simply cannot compare

To the blessings He promises
In His word
They come true to me every day

When I think of the heaven
That waits for me
Because He gave His life for me

I’ll keep pressing on
To draw closer to Him
And one day His face I will see

He’s always enough for me
He meets all my deepest needs
When I was lost
He paid the cost
He’s always enough for me

Metamorphosis

Creeping
Crawling
Slowly moving
Along the ground
Up the trunk
Out on the branch
Onto the leaf
Food to eat
Bound to the branch
So as not to fall
Encumbered by this world
A slow but steady life

Spinning
Weaving
Slowly surrounding
Strong cord attached
Hanging from that branch
Encased in the cocoon
Waiting in the tomb
Bound to the branch
So as not to fall
Encumbered by itself
Waiting
Waiting

Opening
Revealing
Glorious beauty
Wings of flight
Emerge from the cocoon
Flying high for all to see
Landing on the leaf
Free from the branch
No more bound
Unencumbered
New life
Freedom

Trying
Yearning
Our souls cry out
Desiring freedom from sin
From our wicked ways
Christ crawls on the cross
He enters the tomb
He arises anew
Bringing new life in His wings
No more bound to sin
We are free to soar
Free from sin
Free forevermore

Hallelujah Amen

There’s a song of praise in the air today
There’s a song of praise in the air today
I will lift up my voice
And loudly rejoice
There’s a song of praise in the air today

Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah to the Lamb
Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah amen

There’s a song of worship that fills my heart
There’s a song of worship that fills my heart
I will lift up my voice
And loudly rejoice
There’s a song of worship that fills my heart

Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah to the Lamb
Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah amen

There’s a song of glory deep in my heart
There’s a song of glory deep in my heart
I will lift up my voice
And loudly rejoice
There’s a song of glory deep in my heart

Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah to the Lamb
Hallelujah He is worthy
Hallelujah amen

 

Closer Lord To You

I hear your voice of mercy
As you gently speak my name
There’s a need deep down inside me
That is causing me some pain

I can feel my mind is drifting
Farther from your loving side
Help me Lord to draw in closer
To your arms now open wide

Closer Lord to you
Closer Lord to you
Draw me near
Let me hear your voice
Closer Lord to you

Everyday I need to call out
To your ever-listening ears
Everyday I need to praise you
Singing out so you will hear

Everyday your word is needed
To restore my heart to you
Everyday I need to bow down
Praying for your grace anew

Closer Lord to you
Closer Lord to you
Draw me near
Let me hear your voice
Closer Lord to you

Father draw me close to you
Father draw me close to you
Father draw me close to you
Let me hear your voice

Closer Lord to you
Closer Lord to you
Draw me near
Let me hear your voice
Closer Lord to you

Always Enough

Where do I go when I’m hurting
Deep down I’m lost in despair
I look to Jesus my Savior
I know I’ll find comfort there

Where do I go when I’m restless
Wondering what life will bring
I look to Jesus my Savior
His peace will calm everything

All that I need
I find in Him
All I desire
Will come from Him
He’ll never leave
He’ll always love
Trusting in Him
Is always enough

Where do I go when I’m lonely
Feeling my friends have all gone
I look to Jesus my Savior
He’ll walk with me through the storm

Where do I go when I’m weary
When I just can’t finish the race
I go to Jesus my Savior
He strengthens me by His grace

Then when I finish this journey
When my life on this earth is done
He’ll come along
And carry me home
Through His sweet mercy I’ve won

All that I need
I find in Him
All I desire
Will come from Him
He’ll never leave
He’ll always love
Trusting in Him
Is always enough

Trusting Your Way

Day after day I’ll walk with you
Letting you lead the way
I know you see
What’s best for me
From your arms I’ll never stray

Day after day I will trust you
Even when times get quite hard
In every storm
You keep me from harm
Your presence will guide my way

Trusting you always
Trusting your grace
Trusting your mercy
Giving you praise
Walking with you
All of my days
Trusting in you, Lord
Trusting your way

Day after day I will listen
I long to hear your voice
Speak softly now
Please teach me how
To live where I’ll always rejoice

And when the test comes calling
When doubts start to cloud my mind
I’ll turn to you, my Savior
I’ll trust in you all the time

Trusting you always
Trusting your grace
Trusting your mercy
Giving you praise
Walking with you
All of my days
Trusting in you, Lord
Trusting your way

Freely Given

When I observe the heavens and the way the stars are placed
I cannot help but stand and be amazed
When I observe the earth and all the beauty it contains
I cannot help but give God all the praise

When I observe a sinner that repents in earnest prayer
I cannot help but marvel at God’s grace
When I observe a life that by His mercy has been changed
I cannot help but lift my voice in praise

Of all the observations we can make upon this earth
And all the things that God supplies us with
No greater thing will mesmerize our hearts and souls alike
Than the love that God through Christ so freely gives

 

In response to the daily prompt Observe

I See

I see beauty all around me
I see life abundantly
I see healing for my weakness
In my storms I see His peace
I see hope for my tomorrows
I see love for all I meet
When I keep my eyes on Jesus
All I see is victory

I see joy within my sorrows
I see freedom for the bound
I see the lame man leaping
I see the lost are found
I see hearing for the deaf
I see all the blind can see
When I keep my eyes on Jesus
All I see us victory

There is nothing too hard
Nothing to small
Nothing escapes Him
God sees it all
His timing is perfect
His love is immense
When I look to Jesus
My faith will be blessed

I see rest when I’m weary
I see faith when I doubt
I see comfort when teary
Jesus makes a way out
I see oceans of mercy
I see mountains of grace
I see vict’ry abounding
When I look on His face

There is nothing too hard
Nothing to small
Nothing escapes Him
God sees it all
His timing is perfect
His love is immense
When I look to Jesus
My faith will be blessed
