This Day

Leave a reply 
The sun comes up. The day begins
I lift my hands in praise to Him
No tongue can tell. No eye can see
What this new day will bring to me.

It could be clouds, it could be sun
I'll shout my praise whatever comes
It could be pain or hours of woe
But that won't stop His mercy flow
Because I know he loves me so

This day He loves me. This day He'll carry me
This day He'll give me peace. This day He's mine
This day His mercy shows. This day His grace still grows
This day my path He knows. This day. This day.

if I should cry beneath the load
He'll comfort me with joy untold
If should fear what trial may come
He'll calm my fear and give me song

There is no burden He can't lift
This day is His amazing gift
Whatever comes, He'll see me through
His grace will show me what to do

This day He loves me. This day He'll carry me
This day He'll give me peace. This day He's mine
This day His mercy shows. This day His grace still grows
This day my path He knows. This day. This day.

So I will shout my praise and lift my song
To the King of Kings and Lord of Lords
My Savior, my Emmanuel
Jesus Christ my risen Lord
I know He loves me so.

Hold Me, Jesus

Hold me Jesus
Hold me close
In your loving arms
Keep me safe
From any danger
Keep me from all harm

Touch me Jesus
Touch me now
Heal me from this pain
Make me whole
In mind and body
Give me health again

You are such a merciful Savior
Always doing good for me
I can trust that all that happens
Is ordained so I can be
All that you would have me be.

Teach me Jesus
Teach me truth
From your Holy Word
Give me wisdom
Give me knowledge
So your truth I can discern

Guide me Jesus
Guide me now
On the proper path
Let me know
If I should wander
Bring me home at last

You are such a loving Savior
Always doing for my good
I can trust each day you give me
Will bring me right where it should

Glory be to you, sweet Jesus
Praise your mighty, holy name
I will worship you forever
Holy, Holy is your name
Holy, Holy is your name

All That I Desire

Leave a reply 
I want to see your face
Put my hand in your hand
Hear you whisper in my ear
Walk beside you through this land

I want to have your blessing
As we walk side by side
Knowing you will never leave me
If with you I abide

Jesus, precious Jesus
You are all that I desire
Your Holy Spirit guiding me
Will set my heart on fire
Help me live a life of mercy
Help me live a life of grace
Because that is what it takes
If I want to see your face

I want to have you smile at me
And tell me job well done
I want your love to flow through me
Reaching everyone

I want to see the nations saved
So all will sing your praise
Because there's nothing more I love
Than worshiping your name

Jesus, precious Jesus
You are all that I desire
Your Holy Spirit guiding me
Will set my heart on fire
Help me live a life of mercy
Help me live a life of grace
Because that is what it takes
If I want to see your face

I trust in you Lord

When my day seems long and weary

I trust in you Lord

When the sky is gray and dreary

I trust in you Lord

When I start to doubt and worry

When I'm feeling sad and sorry

I trust in you



I hope in you Lord

When here seems to be no hope

I hope in you Lord

When I don't think I can cope

I hope in you Lord

When all others leave my dry

And I can't help but wonder why

I hope in you



I rest in you Lord

When I'm in the midst of battle

I rest in you Lord

When I feeling truly rattled

I rest in you Lord

When I'm feeling lost and lonely

And I can't see past today

I rest in you

God Meets With Me

Leave a reply 
In the quiet of the morning
God meets with me
In the stillness of the evening
God meets with me
When I take time to be still
God meets with me
We can see His presence
Everywhere we look
When can marvel at His majesty
In His amazing creation
We can know that He is with us
Everywhere we go.
And He speaks to us!
The God of the universe
Speaks to us.
Daily.
Hourly.
Minute by Minute!
Take time to listen.
To listen to His voice.
To hear His sweet words.
Drawing us near
Ever so near.
"Draw me nearer, nearer blessed Lord
To the cross where thou has died
Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer blessed Lord
To the precious bleeding side.

God Never Changes

Leave a reply 
God never changes.
If there are trouble in your life, God can change them to miracles
If you have doubts, God can change them to faith
If you are sick, God can change you to healed
If you're in sorrow, God can change it to joy
If you're trouble, God can change it to peace
If you're heart hurts, God can change it to comfort
If your lost, God can change you to found
If you're in sin, God can change you to righteous
If your alone, God can change it to oneness with Him
God never changes in His character, but he is ever changing our character - if we let Him.
Allow Him to change you as He sees fit - It's always for the best.

My Earnest Expectation

Leave a reply 
What are you expecting?
What is your hope?
What is your passion?
Is God in every moment of your life
Or is He just a passer-by?
Is He in your thoughts continually
Or just when you have a need?
Is He involved in every decision
Or just the tough ones?
Does God lead, and you follow?
Or Do you lead and ask God to come along?
If you expect great things in your life
If your hope is high for God to move
Let your passion match those desires.
Your passion for God
Your passion for souls
Your passion for truth
Your passion for ministry.
Paul said "It is my earnest expectation and hope"
Are you earnest about your desires?
Do they greet you when you awake,
And sing you to sleep at night?
Draw nigh to God and He will draw nigh to you.
Raise your expectation and hope
And watch God move
