One Act of Love

 If each day were distinguished
  by at least one act of love,
we might find that over time
  we're graced from up above.. 

Loving acts could multiply,
  til all we say and do, 
born in the love I'm speaking of,
  in God's own point of view.

God is loving and always kind,
  so we should act the same-
start out with one, always done
  in love and in His name.

You, He'll Never Forget

Our Lord loves like no other
  and you, He'll never forget,
so trust in Him, my brother,
  for He hasn't failed us yet.

As the world turns, it may fall,
  but this one truth I know -
the very One who made it all,
  will never let us go.

Walking with Jesus

Sit at the feet of Jesus,
  hear what He has to say,
then keep yourselves in His love
  by reminding yourself all day..

That you are always welcome
  to return and sit at His feet,
to shed your fears, share your tears,
  and bask in communion sweet.

Walk in the steps of Jesus,
  follow wherever he goes,
the path may be a hard one my friend,
  with few highs and too many lows..

Just know, He'll never leave you,
  He'll walk with you step by step.
On each road, He'll lighten your load,
  saving each tear that you've wept.

Stand in the truth of Jesus,
  hide His Words in your heart,
think of them throughout the day,
  even when things fall apart..

His Words give life, love and light-
  without them we cannot stand.
So be assured by His Holy Word,
  and walk with Him hand in hand.

Dawn of a Misty Morning

In the dawn of a misty morning, 
  I sense a still small voice within, 
with an eye of infinite tenderness, 
  watching over me once again. 

Of this I'm sure, He's always there
  with hand to guide, to love and care,
but this day is unlike the others
  or maybe I'm now more aware? 

His love's magnified in my soul, 
  a nearness I've not felt in years.
He's drawing me close despite myself,
  in the joyful rain of my tears. 

His love follows throughout the day,
  singing over me through the night.
I do not know why He loves me so, 
  but I'll bask in His tender delight.

Embrace this chance

Embrace this chance to be with Me,
to seek My face, for I always shall be..
with you, for you, above and within you,
and always shall be through eternity.

Though storms may assail, I'll not fail
to love, guide you, be right beside you.
Embrace, draw near, fear not this place-
use this alone time to seek My face!

Words I'm Saying

Not always sure of the words I'm saying,
the feelings I feel or the part I'm playing.
But this I do know and firmly proclaim-
God great love remains just the same.

When there's no words, no part, no feeling,
He lovingly lavishes mercy and healing.
So when I'm not sure, to Him I'll cling,
then rest and sing to my heavenly King!

Lose myself in Thee

Oh that I might lose myself
  and all my works of dust,
to then become so lost in Thee-
  my everlasting trust.

Be closer than the air I breathe-
  my heart and soul's desire.
Let me lose myself in Thee,
  within Your Holy Fire!

May Thy Word's eternal light
  fill every passing scene;
may Thy love within prevail,
  till Thou alone art seen.

Forgive me Lord

Forgive me Lord for sins long past, and those for which I haven't asked. Forgive me when I neglect to pray; instead, desiring my own way...
