Ever True

Leave a reply

 

Perhaps you don’t have peace today
Or your joy has just run out
Maybe hope has vanished
And your life is filled with doubt

Maybe trials and troubles
Are closing in real fast
You don’t know where to  turn to
And you wonder if you’ll last

There’s an open invitation
That is waiting just for you
Jesus  knocking on your heart
He wants to comfort you

Won’t you ask Him in today
With a simple little prayer
“Jesus come into my heart,
I’m trusting in your grace”

Now just thank Him for His peace
Though you may not feel it yet
Thank Him for His love
And he joy He’s fill you with

But most of all just thank Him
That He waited just for you
To accept His invitation
Now to Him be ever true

Limitless

I thought about God’s love today
How He washed my sins away
He guides me through my every day
What a God I serve

Then I thought of His great grace
That He would come and take my place
Upon that cross in such disgrace
What a God i serve
His mercy is unending
His love is limitless
His grace is overwhelming and so free
His peace is so assuring
His joy is so immense
And all these blessings
He bestows on me
I thought about His mercy
How He overlooked my frailty
And used me in His ministry
What a God I serve
One day soon He’ll come again
Riding on the clouds
He’ll take us home to be with Him
Where we will sing and shout
I’ll lift His praise up every day
For all He’s done for me
I’ll tell of His great love
To everyone I meet
His mercy is unending
His love is limitless
His grace is overwhelming and so free
His peace is so assuring
His joy is so immense
And all these blessings
He bestows on me

He Never Stops Providing

God has been so good to me
And I just don’t know why
Every day His mercy grows
His blessings make me cry

I cry for joy, not sorrow
At what He does for me
He never stops providing
The many things I need

Right now I need a healing
I know He’s bringing that
As slowly and most surely
My strength is coming back

I needed transportation
As of yet I cannot drive
A friend calls on the phone
And says he will provide

My angel of a wife is here
She watches over me
She makes sure my medicines
Are where they need to be

She does all of the housework
She cooks me food to eat
She is amazing, that’s for sure
She’s God’s great gift to me

Even in this trial
When some would turn from God
I run to Him and praise Him
Because He reigns above

He is my rock and fortress
My strength and hiding place
This cancer is defeated
As I lift my hands in praise

I worship you sweet Jesus
Because you are my Lord
And I will sing forever
It’s you that adore

Open Up Your Bible

Leave a reply

I opened up my Bible
To see what I could find
It was then I realized
It’s a virtual gold mine

When I look into the scripture
And I take the time to read
I can find the answer
To all my earthly needs

If I need a touch from Him
And health is what I lack
His word says He has healed me
By the stripes upon His back

If I need some comfort
For the hurts that life can bring
His word says He will give me joy
So much that I will sing

If trouble does surround me
And I never feel at ease
He says He’ll come and walk with me
And leave me with His peace

No matter what the problem
That plagues me day to day
His word will have my answer
And guide me on my way

So, open up your Bible
Take time to fully see
His blessings are all written down
They’re yours if you believe

Recognize the Enemy

We see the birds, the stars, the trees
We see our friends and families
We see a happy, smiling face
We see an old familiar place

So many things do meet the eye
Each day we marvel at the sky
But unseen danger can befall
Our pride is hidden from us all

Please keep your mind and spirit free
To recognize this  enemy
Call on God to help you see
When pride is rising up in thee

Flow

His grace comes like a river
Flowing from His throne
It overwhelms my spirit
It shows me His great love

His mercy is a fountain
Forgiveness reigns supreme
I rest in the assurance
That He has set me free

The river flows
The fountain flows
The Spirit flows
From God to me
The river flows
The fountain flows
The spirit flows
And blesses me

His spirit is a wellspring
Bubbling up inside
It guides me through each day
And comforts me at night

Every day I feel the flow
Welling up inside
I need to let it flow through me
And reach the lost for Christ

The river flows
The fountain flows
The Spirit flows
From God to me
The river flows
The fountain flows
The spirit flows
And blesses me
I let it flow
For all to see
I let it flow
For all to see

Hallelujah, Jesus Reigns

There’s a song in my heart
And it’s easy to sing
It’s a love song to Jesus
His praises I bring
Won’t you sing along
And give praise to the King
I’d love you to sing with me

Hallelujah, Jesus reigns
He is worthy of my praise
I will lift His Mighty name
Hallelujah, Jesus reigns

Now if you missed it
The first-time through
I’ll tell you what
I’m going to do
I’ll sing it again
Just for you
And hope you will sing along

Hallelujah, Jesus reigns
He is worthy of my praise
I will lift His Mighty name
Hallelujah, Jesus reigns

That’s all there is
To this simple song
I am so glad
That you sang along
Please take it with you
And sing it to God
Whenever you have the chance

Hallelujah, Jesus reigns
He is worthy of my praise
I will lift His Mighty name
Hallelujah, Jesus reigns
 
And if you should
Forget the tune
Just make up your own
That wouldn’t be rude
Just lift up your voice
And sing it real soon
So the melody’s fresh in your mind

Hallelujah, Jesus reigns
He is worthy of my praise
I will lift His Mighty name
Hallelujah, Jesus reigns

Today is The Word!

The word that comes forth
From  my  mouth way to much
Is someday
I use this word often
To answer when I need to change
I need to be better at prayer
And doing devotions
But every time I try to
Make a change I put it off

So I have decided
That someday needs to be
Today
I’m tired of my old routine
So I’m changing it now
I’ll get out my prayer list
When I awake in the morning
Then take time in the word
So I can draw closer to Him

No more someday for this guy
Someday has just bit the dust
Someday is gone from my word choice
Today is the word that I’ll trust

Prayer Time

I cried out to Jesus this morning
Lord please hear my humble prayer
I come to you seeking your mercy
For so many friends out there

One of my friends needs your guidance
About things going on in his life
I ask you to give this friend wisdom
To deal with this mountain of strife

Two friends need help with a new job
That came as an answer to prayers
These next few weeks they’ll be learning
Help them listen and learn as they train

I know that you hear my prayer
And I know that an answer will come
I trust in your perfect timing
I will pray they’ll have strength all along

Still others need your touch to heal them
From cancer, or aches, or disease
I ask that your mercy surround them
As I pray to you down on my knees

There’s a friend who has asked me to pray
For protection in foreign lands
I make my request to you Lord
To keep them all safe in your hands

I close out my prayer time this morning
By lifting my voice in praise
My spirit is lost in your worship
I lift up your holy name

I thank you for listening to me
And the prayers that I send your way
Take care of my friends this morning
And give them your mercy today.
