Thank You

Leave a reply
How can I thank you?
What can I say?
For all that you’ve done
For me this day?
What words can offer
How I love you?
For all the things
You say and do?
You rise up the sun
To brighten the day
You give me my breath
And show me thy way
You carry me through
The storms in my life
You hold me closely
In my hardest times
You give me joy
To cast fear aside
Your peace is a comfort
When trials arise.
There’s so many ways
You make this life grand
I just want to stay
In your loving plan
Now I say thank you
Thank you so much
I cannot thank you enough
Thank you my Savior
Thank you my Lord
Thank you for all of your love.

Amazed by His Love

Leave a reply
I find myself amazed at His presence
And that He wants to spend His time with me
I can’t imagine why He’d take a minute
To listen when I humbly make my plea
I cannot fathom why He really loves me
I don’t deserve His mercy or His grace
But every time I stop and think about Him
An overwhelming smile comes on my face
He’s the King of Kings, and He loves me
He showers me with blessing from above
He’s the Lord of Lords
Redeemer of my soul
I am amazed by His love
His peace is more than I can find in this world
His joy takes all my fear and doubt away
The hope He gives is more than just a vision
It gets me through the dark and lonely days
Because of His great love I will serve Him
I’ll worship Him and lift His holy name
Jesus is the one for me forever
And I will lift my voice in praise
He’s the King of Kings, and He loves me
He showers me with blessing from above
He’s the Lord of Lords
Redeemer of my soul
I am amazed by His love

In My Savior’s Arms

All the way my Savior leads me

All the way, He walks beside

I can trust His tender mercy

In His love, I will abide

When my trials overtake me

He will come and be my guide

For I knew He’s always with me

In His bosom I survive

 

Safe in His peace from above

Warmed by the light of His love

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

 

All the way, He is my Shepheard

Daily taking care of me

I don’t have to fret or worry

When I‘m resting at His feet

I can know His joy through struggles

I can have His lasting peace

All I need is to stay near Him

He will always comfort me.

 

Long may He reign in my heart

He is my strength, my all

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

 

All the way, He leads me gently

Let me give myself away

And I’ll know His lasting presence

As He draws me close each day

I don’t need another anchor

He is all my hope and stay

For I know He will protect me

He is my resting place

 

Safe in His peace from above

Warmed by the light of His love

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

Mercy Is All

Leave a reply
There are so many times
I know in my heart
His mercy is all that I need
From the most desperate days
To the oft sleepless nights
He mercy will cover me
When I’m sick in my bed
And a daze fills my head
His mercy is all that I need
Because no matter how long
It takes healing to come
His mercy will cover me
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.
When I feel down and out
And I just want to shout
His mercy is all that I need
Because I know that He
Is right there with me
His mercy will cover me
When the enemies strong
And I don’t have a song
His mercy is all that I need
He’ll raise up His hand
And help me to stand
His mercy will cover me
I’ll trust in the Lord
With all my heart
And I won’t trust in those things I know
I’ll acknowledge Him
In all my ways
And He will make my paths known
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.

With You, Lord

Leave a reply
I want to be with you, Lord
To dance around your throne
To praise your name forever
To make heaven my home
I want to be with you, Lord
To walk the streets of gold
To see those gone before me
To no more getting old
Yes, heaven will be wonderful
A lovely place to stay
But I won’t wait for heaven
To walk with you each day
Because you said you’re with me
And will never leave my side
I choose to walk with you, Lord
While I on earth abide
I am always with you, Lord
To weather every storm
To see me through my trials
To keep me from all harm
I am always with you, Lord
To guide me day by day
To teach me by your Spirit
To walk in all your ways
Your promises are true Lord
And if I walk thus way
When I come to deaths door
I’ll pass through heavens gates
So if you want a heav’nly home
Then make this your daily chore
Walk with Jesus here on earth
And heaven will be yours.

Closer

Leave a reply
Each passing moment
Brings me closer to you
Whether through trial
Or whether I’m blue
Because every time
I am feeling my worst
Your always there
To quench every thirst
Each passing moment
Brings more of your grace
When I can’t feel your touch
When I can’t see your face
I know that your near me
Only by faith
And that while I am waiting
Every tear you’ll erase.
Closer to you through the weakness in me
Closer to you when I bow on my knees
Closer to you when I can’t find my way
Lord draw me closer to you every day
Each passing moment
Brings mercies untold
You spare me from things
That would damage my soul
And fill me with hope
That will soon overflow
Because great is your love
For me.
Closer to you when I feel far away
Closer to you when I can’t stop and pray
Closer to you when my path is obscured
Lord draw me closer, please help me see you
Only through trials
When my faith is tried
Will you draw my closer
To your loving side
So Lord let the trials
Of life come way
So I may draw closer
To you every day.

 

Mercy Covers All

Leave a reply
When I call on you in my darkest day
You will hear the words that I say
And you’ll answer me in your timely way
‘Cause it’s in your name that I pray
And when tears arise in the dead of night
And I cry to you out of fright
You will come to me with your peace so right
And you’ll lead me to your light
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fall
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all
When my doubt is large, and my faith is small
I can always trust in your call
You will see my fear and you’ll give your all
To revive me when I fall
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fall
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all
You hear my every prayer
Your answers always there
Though it may not be
What I want to see
I know you’re always fair
You’ll give to me
Just what I need
Every time I pray
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fal
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all

Choosing to Win

Leave a reply
What is this life about?
Is it learning all that I can?
Is it making a lot of friends?
Or making my own special plans?
What is this life about?
Is it partying into the night?
Is it trying to always be right?
Or winning each quarrel or fight?
I think life is about much more than this
It is more than just playing a game
This life is a journey, it’s running a race
That awaits us when we reach the end
You see life doesn’t stop when we take our last breath
It has actually only begun
This life will determine where the next one starts out
So you need to be choosing to win.
What exactly was Jesus life all about?
It was saving the lost gone astray
It brought healing to sick and sight to the blind
And it taught all of us the right way
What exactly was Jesus life all about?
It was laying His life down for us.
It was teaching us pride has no place in the wise
And showing us mercy and grace
His example is clear and His message us true
So shouldn’t we follow His lead?
He showed us what this life should be all about
About filling our neighbors needs.
So put of your thoughts of me first and mine
Let’s do what He put us here for
Treating our neighbor as deserving of love
That is what this life is for.

All of Creation Sings

Leave a reply

(This is a song I wrote back in 2012.  Hope you enjoy it.  I have many more)

The trees wave their arms,

The birds sing their songs,

The stars show their light for His glory

Each sunset displays

His wonderful ways,

And the heavens cry out with his story

All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings.

He gives us everything good in our lives

 

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,

All of creation adores Him

I will sing with the birds,

And wave with the trees,

And shine His light brightly each day

For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord

 

The flowers bloom bright

In the glorious sunlight,

The rains bring them life for His glory

The thunder proclaims,

The lightning exclaims,

And the heavens cry out with his story

All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings.

He gives us everything good in our lives

 

The sun and the moon and the stars up above

Bring order to man just to show us His love

The earth is renewed by the heavens each day

As he shows us His marvelous ways

 

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,

All of creation adores Him

I will sing with the birds,

And wave with the trees,

And shine His light brightly each day

For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord
