Can You Hear Me?

Can you hear me?
I am calling you
In my still small voice 
Will you hear the words 
I long for you to hear

Can you hear me?
I am calling you
To perform my words 
Will you do the things 
I ask you to do

Heal the sick 
Set the captives free
Make the lame to walk
In my name all is possible 
If you just believe

Open blinded eyes 
Make the deaf to hear
Raise the dead to life
Greater things will you do 
In my name

For I have given you
Power over all
Your enemies
Take authority
And hear the will of God

I want you to pray
All throughout your day
When I ask you to
Do not be afraid
For I will be with you

Can you hear me
Calling out to you
In my still small voice?
You can do all things
In Jesus name!

It’ Been A While

It’s been a while since I knelt bedside my bed and prayed
It’s been a while since I opened up the book and read
It’s been a while since I lifted up my arms in praise
But you have been here all along with your amazing grace

It’s been a while since I listened for your words of love
It’s been a while since I thought about your throne above
It’s been a while since I realized you are enough
But you have been there all the time with your redeeming love

Oh God, I miss my talks with you
The fulness of my walks with you
Oh God, I’ve moved so far away from you
Please help me find a way back to your unfailing grace
Have mercy on me now, my Lord, I pray

It’s time to kneel down by my bed to pray
And read the words of your amazing grace
I need to lift my arms and give you praise
For you have been right by me all the way

I soon forget that you are near
And that my prayers you always hear
I must remember that you love me all the time
Help me to see you by my side
Help me to know that you abide
Speak to my heart and open up my simple mind

Oh God, I miss my talks with you
The fulness of my walks with you
Oh God, I’ve moved so far away from you
Please help me find a way back to your unfailing grace
Have mercy on me now, my Lord, I pray
Have mercy on me now, my Lord, I pray

The Gift of Prayer

As I gaze at the sliver of moon in the sky
And feel the dew under my feet
My mind goes to you in the silence of dawn
All I want is to hear you speak

Oh God, I open my heart up to you
My prayer ascends up to your throne
But it's not the words I speak that matter the most
I must listen for your voice alone

What a precious thing is the gift of prayer
What a mystery vast and wide
I can come to the King of all Kings each day 
He will hear every word that I cry

Then His voice will speak gently with calm and grace
He will give me the words of life 
So, I pray in the silence of morning dew
Because only here will I survive 

Oh, My Child

I’ve journeyed far and wide to different places
I’ve seen expressions change on many faces
This world is oh, so vast
And life goes by so fast
I wonder what’s ahead and what may fate is

It’s not a mystery that I have questions
About the God of heaven and His methods
Each day brings new confusion
Sometimes life seems an illusion
I cry out to the heavens seeking answers

Oh, my God.  What is my purpose?
Oh, my God.  What is your plan?
Oh, my God please come and fill me
With the faith to travel down this path I’m on

Then I hear a voice from heaven up above
And I sense the presence of my Father’s love 
He says “Son, don’t ever fear.
I’ll always be right here.
You’re my child and I’ll lead you through with love”

Oh, my child. You have a purpose
Oh, my child.  I have a plan for you
Oh, my child.  Just trust completely
Every trial and test will bring new faith to you

I will bring you through the fire. Bring you through the storm
Bring you through the heartache. Bring you through unharmed
For no weapon formed against you can ever stop my plan
When you feel like you are falling take my hand

Oh, my child. You have a purpose
Oh, my child.  I have a plan for you
Oh, my child.  Just trust completely
I am here and I am yours.
I am here and I am yours


In The Still Of The Night

In the still of the night hear the bullfrogs
As they fill the night air with their cries
They sit by the side of their dwelling
Daring someone to catch them alive

In the still of the night see the stars shine
Looking upward their glory I see
The light that they give travels onward
My wonder it will never cease

In the still of the night feel the cool breeze
As it whisks away all of the heat
I look forward to that brisk feeling
From the top of my head to my feet

In the still of the night God is speaking
Through the sounds, sights and feelings I have
There is no mistaking His presence
As I take in the cool night air

I hope that he always comes calling
As I walk by the wayside each day
If I open my ears and I listen
I the still of the night He is there

Do You Hear Me?

Are you there?
Do you hear me?
As I quietly call your name.
Are you there?
Do you hear me?
My prayer is still the same.
I want to know you more
I want to feel your touch
I want to hear your voice
Do you hear mine?

Are you there?
Do you see me?
As I go through trials of life.
Are you there?
Do you see me?
When my life is full of strife.
I want to know you more
I want to feel your touch
I want to hear your voice
Do you hear mine?

Out of the silence
I hear your voice - 
Gently it speaks to my soul
"I am here
I hear your voice
I will answer in my time
I am here
I see your life
My help is near you all the time
Do not fear
Do not worry
I will never leave your side."

His Still Small Voice

When I hear Jesus calling, I just listen 
To hear what He will say to me today 
I know that His kind words will bring fulfillment
And will help me as I follow in His way 

There is not a time that Jesus is not speaking 
His voice is soft and gentle every time 
He is hoping that you'll train your ear to listen 
As He speaks to you in words of truth and life

Not in the fire
Not in the wind 
Not in the earthquake does He call my name
But when we're still 
When we're ready to hear
His still small voice will be loud and clear


Jesus is waiting for your ears to hear
His words are there if you'll just lend an ear
Be still and know that He's Lord of all
His voice will come and settle your storm

CHORUS
BRIDGE 

His words bring peace 
His words bring joy 
His words bring healing
Deliverance is yours
His words bring hope
His words bring love
His words will guide 
When you listen real close

CHORUS

Turn Around

I was wandering in the wilderness this morning
Wondering if my life was headed for a fall
Then I heard a gentle voice
Saying “Son you have a choice.
You can walk away or answer to my call.”
 
I had never thought I’d leave my precious Savior
But it seemed my life was spinning out of place
I was walking really slow
Then my legs began to bow
Soon I found that I had fallen on my face
 
I’m not sure how I got down on my knees
But I knew the Lord would hear my heartfelt pleas
I lifted up my voice
And I started to rejoice
For all the mercy He had shown to me
 
It was not uncommon that He’d speak to me
I heard His voice most every single day
And I always have a choice
To heard His gentle voice
Or to walk into the wilderness my way
 
I slowly raised myself up off the ground
Decided I would quickly turn around
I headed back to Him
From the place that I had been
To find the place where love and peace abound

Will You?

Will you walk with me today?
Will you talk with me today?
Will you listen and hear the words I will speak?
Will you spend just a moment with me?
 
Will you pray for a friend today?
Will you help out a stranger in need?
Will you speak words of faith to a soul who’s in doubt?
Will you be what I want you to be?
 
I have given you this day
Every minute is a gift of grace
I pray you don’t waste it
But please make the most of it
Follow my will today
 
Will you walk in my way, not yours?
Will you speak my words, not yours?
Will you take all your thoughts captive to me?
Will you truly be set free?
 
Every breath you breathe is from me
Everything you see is from me
Make the most of this day by being a friend
Finding and meeting their needs
 
I truly believe that every day God gives us opportunity to minister to someone, and often we don’t recognize that opening when it comes.  When a person starts talking to you and tells you that there is a problem in their life, do you take time right then and there to pray?  I have a habit of saying that I will pray for them ,but don’t always take the time to pray while I am with them.  While Jesus was on this earth, the bible is very clear that He prayed for everyone that came to Him, and they were all healed.  Now, I am obviously not Jesus, but I believe if I walked in this kind of faith, more people would see the healing power of God.  Not because I am praying, but because I extended faith to them so they could believe.
 
The most precious gift we have is our time!  We must utilize it more for Him and less for ourselves.  We all have daily tasks that take up precious minutes in our day.  But taking a minute or two to pray with someone at the time we are with them should be a  flexibility we will have.  May we all take this precious gift and share it with others.  We can change the world one person at a time!
 
James 5:16b King James Version
The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

Your Gentle Voice

I’ve come to listen, Lord, to hear you speak
For your truth is what I seek

I long to hear your gentle voice
Come to me now and I’ll rejoice

For you speak life into my soul
You speak hope and make me whole

You speak wisdom so I might learn
You speak glory for which I yearn

You speak peace to calm my storms
You speak joy/ My heart you warm

Lord give me life today I ask
To hear your voice is my only task
