A Silent Prayer- Shore of Visions Loom

“Jesus speak unto my heart, with your calm serenity.
Your joyful presence all about, sets my mind at ease.
Guide me with divine direction, a blessing given me.
With inspiration light my path, so my eyes can see.

Jesus to you I draw closer, as my spirit you set free.
The tender kindness of your mercies, forever I receive.
Influence my thoughts upon this morn, in you I do believe.
As you now set my course, across life’s stormy seas…”

Lord cast my eyes on the shores of a vision:
an ocean of dreams awaits to sail; 
casting aloft into this early morn.
You’ve set my course and my destination,
avoiding the reefs of black betrayal,
rising above the darkened seas of scorn.

On winds of direction Lord guide my vessel,
true faith in quest of love’s ambitions:
sailing along into forevermore.
Headed across those uncharted waters,
riding the waves of life’s transitions,
predestined to greet that hallowed shore.

I feel it drawing near, shore of visions loom.
A yearning deep inside, I’ve felt for many moons.
Through oh so many years, lost in stormy gloom.
Dreams I’ve fantasized, shore of visions loom.

For many a nights being purged of darkness:
sailing through the ides of twilight;
I feel your Holy Spirit now on board.
When there in the distance I see the shoreline, 
sparkling joys of  glorious delights:
it’s truly closer than it’s ever been before!

I feel it drawing near, shore of visions loom.
My dreams are realized, knowing that it’s soon.
All my fallen tears, into the depths entombed.
Jesus is calling me to fly: shore of visions loom…!

Sanctified

Raising holy hands up unto the sky, we praise thee Lord Jesus whom is glorified!
As heirs to the promise onward we forge, children of covenant upon eternal shores.
Confessing salvation in “The Word” now conceived: a path for tomorrow that‘s truly free!
Divine in direction as the Holy Ghost leads, no more to sorrow in Gods' love now retrieved…

                           And sanctifi - - ied, sanctifi - - ied, sanctifi - - ied:
                           by the blood of the Lamb we‘ve been sanctified!
                           Sanctified from the lust of flesh,
                           sanctified unto true holiness.
                           Sanctified in His peace and love:
                           its Jehovah Shalom we speak of..!
                           Lord Jesus it’s unto thee we bow,
                           in the glorious presence of your power.
                           Faithful and chosen are those who believe:
                           blood redeemed out of this world that has fallen… 

Casting off life’s worries in Gods' peace to abide, justified freely by grace sanctified.
Through redemption in Christ Jesus ransom is paid, His Holy Spirit now leads the way!
Communed in a holy transition beyond-ward to soar, finding a gladness unknown before.
Becoming the reflection of our Savior adored, lost in unspeakable happiness forevermore..!

                           And sanctifi - - ied, sanctifi - - ied, sanctifi - - ied:
                           by the blood of the Lamb we’ve been sanctified!
                           Sanctified unto His righteousness; 
                           "Alleluia" Jehovah M’Kaddesh!
                           Sanctified in the King of kings,
                           of His goodness all creation sings.
                           Lord Jesus whom is here and now, 
                           given you is all the glory and the power.
                           Kneeling before thee by faith we receive:
                           that jubilantly blessed sound of your voice calling…

                                                                                         Brother Christian

Year of the Winds

Inspiration clamors: demanding attention, in need of expression,
possessing my thoughts on this cold winter's dawn.

"Overcast morning!" Wind chimes ring out, a whimsical message,
orchestrates music, played to the rhythm of an odd melody.

Snowflake whirl; dancing about, vivacious children, blanket
with romance, noting the beauty of their frozen domain.

Eternal winds...forever to wander, in search of a dwelling, echoes
from nowhere: "Obscure is the meaning of this mystical song."

Year of the winds, that blow through my mind.
You leave me to ponder, upon melodic rhymes.
Blowing with fury, as you speak from the trees.
Then growing silent, just a wisp on the breeze.

Year of the winds, in the mornings I find.
Your blissful whispers, like a mystical chime.
Kissing me gently, with the waking of dawn.
Touching my spirit, with your beautiful song...

Whispering Tongues

Whispering tongues secret voice of the heart.
Uttering great mysteries now known in part.
Sacred prayers of the spirit taking to flight;
love whispers to Jesus: sent by white candle light.

A spiritual awakening, a mighty rushing of wind;
in your grace you have kept me, from beginning to end.
All anxieties now silenced, no more are darkness of woes;            
Lord Savior my sweet Jesus: lover of my once tortured soul…

Whispering tongues echo that which is deep.
Defining divine purpose for ones spirit to keep.
A love letter expressed when no one’s in sight;
passionate whispers to Jesus: kisses the still of this night.

A spiritual possession, a love such as I never knew;
for all of eternity you’ve been there: holy, faithful and true.
Breath of your loving presence, consumes my body and soul;
Holy Ghost Spirit Lord Jesus: of my all, I grant you total control…. 

                                                                                       
                                                                                    Brother Christian
