Running to You

https://suno.com/s/d1Ln5Ou1qZblvVvS

(verse 1)
I'm running to you Lord, running to you.
This world doesn't offer the peace that you do
When I am in trouble you always come through.
That’s why I’m running to you

(verse 2)
I’m waiting on you Lord, waiting on you.
Your timing is perfect. You know what to do
My faith in your goodness will carry me through.
That’s why I’m waiting on you

(CHORUS)
I can depend on your mercy.
I can depend on your grace
I can depend that you’ll always do good to me.
So I lift up my heart in praise

(verse 3)
I’m hoping in you, Lord, hoping in you.
You hold my future you know what I’ll do
No matter the storm you’ll carry me through.
That’s why I‘m hoping in you

(BRIDGE)
And when the storm clouds gather and it seems there’s no way out
I’ll lift my hands to worship. I’ll lift my voice and shout
I know that you are with me through every trial and test
That’s why I’ll bring my praises. You deserve my best

(CHORUS)
I can depend on your mercy.
I can depend on your grace
I can depend that you’ll always do good to me.
So I lift up my heart in praise

Fill Me With You

https://suno.com/s/kWhbnp01rcqJMVZi

I come to you hungry, Lord 
Hungry for mercy, Lord
Hungry for manna from your living word

I come to you thirsty, Lord
Thirsty for more of you
Thirsty for living water of life

More of you Jesus
More of you Jesus
More of you Jesus
Fill me with you

I come to you broken
Broken and spilled out
Please come and fill me. Fill me with you

I come hungry, I leave full
I come thirsty, I leave quenched
I come broken, I leave whole
I come empty I leave with more

More of you Jesus
More of you Jesus
More of you Jesus
Fill me with you

More of you Jesus
Fill me with you
More of you, Jesus
Fill me with you
Fill me with you

He Fed Me

I wrote this song a few days ago in the wee hours of the morning.

Like a kitty cat without a home
I was wandering through life all alone
I was scrounging all the time
Because food was hard to find
My heart and soul was hungering for more

Then a friend from long ago came by
‘He told me there was something I should try
He told me of His Lord
And the food within His word
Then He fed me with a verse at a time

That word he gave me started to sink in
Until it settled down deep within
I kept coming back for more
Very soon I knew His Lord
My wandering then ceased forevermore

Because He fed me
He fed me
The Word of God was honey to my soul
He fed me
Words of mercy
Until the day I finally knew my Lord

Then I realized that water was there too
In the words of the pages I His book
I was thirsty for a drink
When He brought His word to me
Now my thirst is satisfied forevermore

Because He fed me
Living water
And the bread of life that only He could give
He fed me
Grace and mercy
I had been close to death but now I live

No more hunger, no more thirst
No more hunger, no more thirst
No more hunger, no more thirst
He has satisfied my longing soul

Because He fed me
Grace and mercy
His love has brought me in from the gold
He fed me
Now I am free
And I’ll be with Him forevermore

I’ll be with Him forevermore
I will be with him for e….ver….more

I Turn to You

This is a song I wrote on June 10th. The recording is from Suno, my AI music generation applicaiton.

https://suno.com/s/W9D7lj4UIoBdMg0o

I turn to you out of my troubles
Out of my trials, out of my fears
I turn to you out of my heartaches
Out of my sickness, out of my tears

I turn to you looking for answers
Looking for reasons, looking for hope
I turn to you seeking your goodness
Seeking your mercy, seeking your grace

And you are there, you are always there
Right beside me in the midst of my storms
When I turn to you, I can rest assured
You will welcome me with open arms

I turn to you, finding a refuge
Finding a fortress, finding a rest
I turn to you, where there is healing
Where there is peace and forgiveness,

And you are there, you are always there
Right beside me in the midst of my storms
When I turn to you, I can rest assured
You will welcome me with open arms

You are my strength in the battle. You are my refuge in the storm
You are my helper when I’m in trouble. You are my keeper forever more.
You are the rock that I can stand on. You are the hope that gives me faith.
You are a friend I can depend on. You are the truth, the life, the way.

I know you are there, you are always there
Right beside me in the midst of my storms
When I turn to you, I can rest assured
You will welcome me with open arms

I will turn to you, Oh Lord
I will turn to you, Oh Lord
In everything I do I will turn to you
You will show me the way.

In everything I do I will turn to you
You will show me the way

Endless Praise

 I don’t think I can live a day without you
 You have always been there for me, good times or bad
 You have taken my doubts away
 And replaced them with boundless faith
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I have come to know you are always for me
 You have opened my blinded eyes and now I see
 Your word is the path of life
 Your cross was my sacrifice
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I can place all my fears and failures at your altar
 You forgive all of my iniquities
 I can rest in your gentle arms
 Safe from all worldly harm
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I can come to you every time I’m lonely
 Your Holy Spirit will fill me up and comfort me
 You lift me up when I am down
 In you my joy and peace abound
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I will tell everyone about your mercy
 I will tell them you saved my soul from hell’s despair
 You show to me your boundless grace
 I give to you my endless praise
 What a wonderful God you are to me

You Are Enough For Me

 When I am down, you pick me up
 When I am dry, you fill my cup
 When I am lost, you give me hope
 You are enough for me
  
 When I have sorrow, you give me joy
 When I’m in doubt, your faith I employ
 When there are storms, you fill me with peace
 You are enough for me
  
 When I had nothing, you came along
 When I was sad, you gave me a song
 When I get lonely you whisper to me
 You are enough for me
  
 You are enough, more than enough
 You are enough for me
 All this world offers will never fulfill
 The needs that well up in me
 When I turn to you, I find I am full
 Because you are enough for me
  
 Through terror and fear
 Through troubles and tears
 You always come through for me
 Through trials and tests
 You know what is best
 Because you are enough for me
  
 Stay close to me, Jesus
 Stay right by my side
 I’ll try my hardest to always abide
 And when I should wander
 To left or to right
 You’ll guide me back on the path
 Because you are enough for me’
  
 Your grace is enough
 Your mercy enough
 Your peace is enough
 Your joy is enough
 Your hope is enough
 Your strength is enough
 Your healing enough
 Your love is enough
 Yes, you are enough for me 

Nothing Without You

 Lord, I need you to touch my heart
 Where wrong desires are often born
 The shame I feel when we’re apart
 Is more than I can bear
  
 Lord, I need you to touch my mind
 My wandering thoughts tempt me to sin
 Please drive temptation far away
 So I might have some peace within
  
 Lord, I need you to touch my soul
 More of your Holy Spirit please
 That I might know the way to go
 Start each day down on my knees
  
 Lord, I need you to touch my strength
 I am so weak I feel I’ll fall
 Only you can help me stand
 So I can heed your every call
  
 Lord I give you all my life
 My heart, my mind, my soul, my strength
 My life is nothing without you
 Lord come to me today
 I need you
   

Taking Time

I don’t plan to disappoint Him but I do
I don’t plan to contradict Him but I do
I don’t plan to have a bad day where I walk away from Him
But I do.  Way too often I do
 
I don’t listen to His voice like I should
I don’t walk in His footsteps like I should
I don’t think about the ways I can witness of His love
Not I don’t.  Way too often I don’t
 
Taking time to be with Jesus should be my priority
Not just eking out a life of fun and games
Taking time to be with Jesus is my goal and my desire
I can’t remain where I am.  I have to change
 
I must spend time in His word every day
I must walk away from sin every day
I must tell of His great love to everyone I meet
Yes I must.  Every day I must
 
Taking time to walk like Jesus is my prayer
So that I can touch the sinners where they are
Taking time to spread His story to the ones who need it most
Ever word I speak will make them more aware
 
There was a song many years ago that Larnell Harris sang entitled “I Miss My Time With You.”  It represents the voice of God saying to someone how much he misses spending time with them because they haven’t been praying or reading the word like they should.  It’s a beautiful song with a great message.  When we love someone here on this earth, we want to spend time with them.  We will go out of our way often to spend time with them.  Their voice and their face are like caffeine top our spirit – they pick us up!
 
Way too often the cares of this life take precedence over spending time in prayer, in the word, and in our witness.  At least, that is true with me.  If I do not spend that time in the morning, I may never find it in the middle of the day. I have to Make Time!  I have to deliberately carve out some time, best in the morning, to spend with Him.  If I do that over and  over again, soon it will be a part of my routine and I will be spending the time with Him that I need to.  It is up to me to spend time with Him, because he is always with me.  I just am not aware of that until I turn to Him and seek Him first.
 
Psalm 63:1 King James Version
63 O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
 

Endure

When I am desperate for a touch from God
And He seems so far away
I lean on friends and those I trust
To get me through each day
 
Sometimes I understand His plan
And other times I don't
But I always know He's in control
And that truth I won't let go.
 
I hurt deep down inside today
For the trouble of a friend
I can only trust the Lord will show
His strong and mighty hand.
 
For when darkness clouds each weary day
And the sun seems dim and weak
I know my God will come to me
How I long to hear Him speak
 
He'll tell me that He loves me
And His plan is good and sure
He'll tell me that He knows my hurt
He'll tell me to endure
 
He'll tell me in the end I'll see
Why I had to walk this road
Until that time, He'll carry me
And lighten up my load

Storms Will Subside

When I’m feeling left out I look in
To see Jesus is right there with me
I’m never alone
When My Saviors along
Always in Him I will be

When I’m feeling down I look up
To see Jesus is looking at me
The smile on His face
Shows me His grace
This is where I want to be

When I’ve lost my way I look back
I see Jesus is running to me
I give Him the lead
He knows what I need
Behind Him is where I must be

When I do not know I look lost
My faith seems a long way from me
His word will I seek
His truth I will speak
My faith will rise up in me

When I might be faced with some trouble
His mercy is all I need
His love will abide
Even storms will subside
I know Jesus is right there with me
