Life As A Prayer Be

Time in prayer with God
Such an honor to be

Coming before His throne
Humbly on our knees

O Heavenly Father
Hear our prayer, our cry

Our plea for Your mercy
Your grace don't pass us by

Bring healing to our land
Our emotions, our soul

Comfort us in our needs
Make us completely whole

You know what's best for all
Forgive our doing wrong

Life as a prayer be
Lets' make this be our song

The True Light From Heaven

Light shinning in the dark
It's there for us to see

Darkness once was hidden
It wasn't there to be

Awaken us to life
God's words to set us free

Not causing us to fall
but brings us to our knees

Lets pray for forgiveness
Blood of Jesus, we plea

The True Light from heaven
His Light we shall decree

So Make The Most Of What's There

Feeling the good of today
Every day is a good day

It's the day the LORD has made
Let's rejoice, don't let it fade

For every day has its good
It's always there if you would

Look around, for when you go
God's goodness, is there to flow

So make the most of what's there
The Good of God that we share

Got To Let Go

Same old same old

For what's the use

Need to cut loose

Stuck in bondage
Tied up in knots

Back to the basic
Get mind off those things

The Sounds Of This Day

Standing on the porch
The wind blowing my way

Hearing birds singing
What a happy day!

Feeling the cool breeze
Smelling morning wear

Tasting the dawn scent
That brings the Spring air

With colors surround

The awe of nature

Train horn blowing strong
Springtime keeps ringing

While birds still singing

Jesus, Open Up Our Eyes

The appearance of losing
Still some times passes us by

Just looking for some answers
Still, yet never knowing why

How can things turn out that way?
Or what is it we don't see

Blinded by our surrounding
How can these things come to be

O LORD Jesus shed come light
Before us, we can not flee

Jesus, open up our eyes
Show what You want us to see

Let Him Guide All Your Days

Not to be offended
As blindness settles in

Ask the LORD for His help
For you don't know for when

Darkness hits but what in
Revelation brings insight

For what to do or not
Read between the lines

When things appear at lost
Forgive, let go and find

What the LORD wants for you
Believe in Him, His ways

When things seem but blurry
Let Him guide all your days

How strange it is
To see such things
