I Will

I will praise Him
No matter how I feel
I will give Him glory
Because His love is real
I will praise Him
Every single day
Worship Him forever
Lift His Holy name
If I praise Him just for blessings
My praise will oft fall short
Because some days just bring trials
It’s a promise from His word
If I praise Him just for healing
There’ll be times I’ll not sing out
Because illness can be lingering
And it may just steal my shout
But when I praise Him just because
He’s the Lord of heaven and earth
There is nothing that can blind me
To all that He is worth
He is more than blessings
More than healings,
More than life.
He’s the great creator
Of the earth
And all the skies.
So the next time tour day isn’t
What you planned for it to be
Just lift your hands and praise Him
And His glory you shall see
And all your trials and troubles
Will soon seem oh so small
The God of all creation
Is the master of them all.p

Trust The Lord

I don’t quit when the going gets tough
I don’t quit when the road gets rough
I don’t quit when I’ve had enough
I just trust the Lord
No complaints when I’ve had a bad day
No complaints when things don’t go my way
No complaints when I’m hurt by what’s said
I just trust the Lord
You see, He’s in control
Not me and not you
He’s in control
And His word is quite true
No weapon formed
Against you will stand
Our enemies will never win
So when life is hard
Just lift up your head
Throw out your pride
Let humility reign
God knows the plans
That He has for you
And His plan will never fail
I praise His name no matter what comes
I praise His name in the midst of the storms
I praise His name and give thanks He has won

 

I just trust the Lord

Help

Lord, help me
Through and through
Life is a lost and lonely place
Without you.
Lord, help me
As I pray
I am needful of your grace
Every day
Lord, help me
Through this night
Fear has pushed my faith aside
As I write
Lord,  help me
See your light
Draw me to your loving side
By your might
Lord, help me
Trust in you
Only then can I have peace
Faith renewed
Lord, help me
Be like you
Help me live a life of grace
Mercy too.
You’ve helped me through the battles
That daily come along
You’ve helped me through the trials
When I am weak, you’re strong
You’ve helped me through the hard times
When I think I will fall
You’ve helped me all throughout life
I’ve given you my all
And  now I come to you, Lord
With one more desperate plea
I know that when I call on you
You’ll never fail to help me

His Glory

I have seen His glory
Shining from above
‘Tis the ancient story
Of abiding love
I have felt His glory
Filling up my heart
I know He adores me
Never will depart
I have praised His glory
Worshipped His sweet name
I will praise Him only
Age to age the same
I have touched His glory
With every earnest prayer
He answers His way only
And tells me He is there
His glory is amazing
His glory is divine
His glory is deserving
Of every praise of mine
His glory is eternal
His glory is so true
His glory is love’s journal

 

From heaven down to you.

I’m Outa Here

Discharge today
Yippee – Kai- Yay
I’m as happy as a
Cow with new hay
Discharge today
Toodle – De – Doo
I have a few things
To share with you
He’s my healer
Plain and simple
He’s the one
Who did it all
Gave the knowledge
To the doctors
Of things both
Great and small
He brought this team
Together
Bands of doctors
Nurses too
They administered
The treatment
From the wisdom
God issued
It’s His mercy and grace
I relied on
His mercy and grace
Saw me through
He guided your
Every prayer
And answered them
Through and through
Lord, I thank you
For watching over me
Every moment of every day
You are my healer
You’ll restore me
I give you all of my praise

Triumph in Trials

I sit here in the hospital

And my thoughts go out to those

Who question why they’d be in such a place

And I can’t help but realize

That many of us choose

To think that these things come through lack of faith

 

I will beg to differ though

When trials and tests do come

That lack of faith is not the cause at all

I have a loving Father

Who knows His plan for me

At every turn I’m asked to hear His call

 

I know beyond a doubt He has a plan for me

And I know His plan is always for my good

So if He’s decided I should go through cancer in my life

Then I know He’s the one who’ll see me through

 

You might ask why a loving God would bring this upon me

How can good come out of something that can kill

Well let me take a moment to tell you what He’s done

In this short time while He has kept me still

 

Prayers have been answered all over the world

From friends I have both here and overseas

Building up their faith for battles that will come

Battles that by prayer will see defeat

 

The poems I have written have reached around the globe

Thousands upon thousands have been touched

This ministry is growing to edify the church

It witnesses of His great love for us

 

The testimony that this trial will one day give to me

I will share with everyone I know

Because of His great mercy, that spared me from the worst

TI can shout that He has carried be right through

 

And last is the fact that healing will come

And the glory will all go to Him

And others will be lifted up in their faith

And our enemy will never win

 

So sing out His praises when trial arise

Lift up His name and look to the skies

Your redeemer will help you and faith He’ll supply

As you rest in His loving arms

I Stand Amazed

There are many thing in earth

That take my breath away

Every day I can observe

The marvels  that come my way

 

From the brilliant sun at dawn

To the colors of sun set

The birds melodious song

And the flowers powerful scent

 

Then I think about my body

And the way it’s carefully made

There is no other copy

Unique in all it’s ways

 

All these things bring wonder

To my big imagination

I marvel as I ponder

The vastness of creation

 

It’s awesome, Oh, so awesome

That God would care so much

To give us this great earth

So He could stay in touch

 

But even more than awesome

Is the love He has for me

That He would give His son

To take my sin from me

 

So now I stand amazed

At all that He has done

But I truly am in awe

Of His abiding love

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In response to the Daily Prompt Awe

My Lord Divine

It’s a blessed day
I will sing His praise
Loud hosannas raise
To His Holy name
He has blessed my life
Saved me for all time
He’s my Lord divine
For the rest of time
No matter what the day brings
Or what trials come my way
He’s always there beside me
To guide me with His grace
If I should fall and stumble
He’s there to pick me up
If my faith should go weary
He’ll come and fill my cup
His mercy is amazing
He spares me all the time
His love is neverending
I can’t believe it’s mine
It’s a blessed day
I will sing His praise
Loud hosannas raise
To His Holy name
He has blessed my life
Saved me for all time
He’s my Lord divine
For the rest of time

Awesome Grace

I can’t imagine

What God will do today

Every day is a new miracle

When I trust His way

 

Nobody ever knows

The blessings that will come

When I yield to His spirit

And trust in His love

 

Today might bring trials

That challenge my faith

Designed so I’ll run

To His awesome grace

 

Sickness may come

In the midst of the night

Will I trust on His healing?

To end my plight?

 

Friends might desert me

And ruin my name

It’s then I need Jesus

To weather the pain

 

Days are not always

Blessings and joy

There are times in the valley

When we need to grow

 

So God allows these things

To strengthen our faith

If we’ll only just trust

In His awesome grace

Take Aim

I cannot imagine life without God

I cannot imagine not knowing His touch

I cannot imagine not knowing His love

I cannot imagine it at all

 

Truth is, I used to be there

Living without God

Living in an aimless life of sin

I didn’t have much hope

In what the future held

And I surely had no lasting peace within

 

But then I met the Savior

Jesus is His name

He gave His life to take away my sin

But more than that He promised

That He’d prepared a plan

So I would not go aimlessly again

 

If your destination

Is not so clear to you

And aimless is your life’s detour

Then why not come to Jesus

And see His plan for you

Take aim at being all He made you for
