I Seek Thee
My Lord, my Lord I look for You near and far
At times I don't know where You are.
I often feel so insecure
My heart broken in need of a cure.
The feeling of being empty inside
Leaves you with no place to hide.
Just to find someone to care
Would make all troubles so easy to bear.
You can't look to a church with its steeple
You must look inside to see the hearts of her people.
For that is where you can find
Acertain love of a particular kind.
It is the Love of God for us to share
To tell His people that He will always care...
God's Rest
Our home is not here in Earth
It is not until we die do we find our true birth.
Life is a struggle from cradle to grave
But with God's help it is easy to be brave.
When we try to do things on our own
We get caught up in the fears of the unknown.
Though with God this is not true
For He is there in everything we do.
God is our hope, we are in His care
We must learn this, we must learn to share.
The road is troublesome that we tread
But comfort is found when we learn to sleep
in God's bed...
God's Secret To Gardening
Inside each of us there is a special need
That will flourish and grow like a planted seed.
Our special need is for Love and trust
The kind that God has provided for us.
To awaken the seed, to make it grow
There are only a few things you should know
God, the Father will always be there
His Love is the kind that will answer each prayer.
Prayer is the seed we plant with trust
To have faith in its growing is a must.
For faith is the ingredient that will make that see sprout
Trusting in God from the inside out...
The Pure In Heart
Blessed are the pure in heart
They have turned life's work into art.
For they see God in everything they do
The kind of living that makes dreams come true.
To realize God is there wherever you go
Is one of life's lessons that is important to know.
God's awareness is of a special kind
Some people would say it is impossible to find.
But with faith, hope, and prayer
God can't help but to be there.
Faith is not just a way of living
It comes from a heart accustomed to giving.
For in giving is how we can learn
The gifts God has for us we could never earn
For God harbors no hate of any kind
He has nothing but Love for all of mankind...
What Can I Say
God if there is something, You wish me to say
Give me those? words in Your special way.
I will try to be quiet, try to be still
Enter my heart with the words You need to fill.
Your Love is something we should adore
You tell us to knock, You will open the door.
But to knock some say I don't know how
It's done with Love, friendship, a smile.
Easy it sounds, yet it must be so
That door will open for us all to know
A God whose Love is ever so fair
It is open to all His people everywhere...
Adam I Forgive
Adam the first did not obey
And Christ knew the price He would have to pay.
Though not even yet of this Earth
He was doomed to die even before His birth.
Adam kenw what he had did
That is why re ran, he hid.
Not only did Adam commit sin
He ruined a Heavenly place for all his kin.
He created fear, he destroyed trust
He made this place hell for all of us.
His perfect nature he did spoil
Now in the Earth we all must toil.
Angry is something we could be
But that would blind us, we would no see
That Christ's death was of a special kind
It was the one thing that could free all of mankind...
A Pure Heart
To see God is a work of art
It can only be achieved with a pure heart.
Though the opportunity is offered to all
Few if any will answer His call.
To obtain this particular kind of sight
You need only to choose what is right.
Free will is our method to see
All the love God has for you and me.
God asks so little of us
We must provide Him with all our trust.
For in trusting God with our heart and soul
It frees the Spirit of a heart that has turned cold...
Follow Me
In a world that is easy to stray
How can we ever find our way.
The road is troublesome that we tread
No place to rest a weary head.
Peace is something we all need
Yet to obtain it, few ever will succeed.
The Law states what you must do
To make this peace a part of you.
To understand the Divine Plan
There must be a union between God and man.
A marriage of sorts; hearts to heart
Trust and Love that will never part.
When God and man can live as One
Then Christ can say His work is done.
For Christ told us He is the way
So follow Him and never stray...
My Fortune
Christ my soul is for Your command
Ask and I will fulfill whatever You demand.
My limits I need not tell You so
For You know me better than even I do know.
Your reason for making me such as You did
Remains a mystery from which my awareness is hid.
My human nature is bound to part
From that which lies deep in my heart.
For between my body and soul
Lies a fortune not measured in gold.
My fortune, my measure of fame
Is what I have to give, all in Your name.
Whatever it is I try to do
Can never be compared to You.
You gave us everything, You gave us Your all
By responding to our Heavenly Father's call.
In doing this You have showed the way
To a brighter way to live each day.
To be victorious, to have the battle won
We need to pray these words,
"THY WILL BE DONE!"...
Death's Door
Death is not the end, it is so much more
It is the price we pay to open Eternities door.
Some may say it is a high price to pay
But we pay that price day by day.
In striving to live each day as One
We learn the work that is to be done.
Eternity is a part of us all
We each must answer our Father's call.
For in each life there is a central plan
Derived from God, not from man.
And in his way He will lead us to
All of life's changes we must go through.
He will lead us not to the sea or shore
But back? to the safety of Eternitites door.
The door will open when the time is right
No need to fuss, no need to fight.
For God will ask us one and all
How well did we answer to His call...
