I’m weak – but He is strong I lack the courage, but He is never wrong I have no skills but He knows all I am short in faith, hope and love He has all of these and more – so I believe I’ll follow the One who created me The One who gave to me – the grace I need to keep hoping, keep believing Keep dreaming and keep achieving The dreams who cry for me… to succeed To give my heart and soul to Him, The answer to my greatest needs… The breath of light, the freedom To be the person I yearn to be The person who knows He brings Joy that inspires my best, my highest Praise, prayer – in agreement With the One who gave my life to me I’ll follow the One who died for me On a cross at Calvary – the One Who has been light to me, through it all, During the darkness that destroys Through the sadness, pain and doubt The worry that shadows my thanks The fears and tears that drive out All of my heart’s greatest strengths The wisdom to listen to His voice To hear the words from His Promises, the ones that assure my spirit Inspire and uplift, bring me Feelings of faith – inspiration and grace Assurance that He is there A light for my heart’s prayers The hope, faith and love That God sent down from above I’ll forever be grateful for His gifts His tenderness, His kiss… compassion Brought to life in my smile, in the twinkle Stars in my eyes – the portrayal of a love Far greater than I can describe with mere Words – a love that guides my thoughts, Heals my broken heart and reminds me I am loved more than I can even think of, With a love that comes from the heart That brought me hope and faith, grace A change that silenced my doubt, stirred Joy inside my spirit and reassured me With peace that is like a gentling stream Pouring over stones smoothed, curved By the amazing hand of One who knows Me by the whisper of my soul, the pieces Fragments of my heart that He mended With His kindness, His compassion, His Eternal blessings … etched in the psalms He rained down over my aching soul I’ll forever love Him and be thankful For the One who stirred my thoughts To listen to His hope – His grace, His love Believe in the One who is more than light… He is redemption, assurance, blessing He is the reason I can honestly say… Without Him, I wouldn’t know what It means to be filled with a spirit Love that rings truer than anything Love that sings a tune of promised escape From the darkness of shame Love that brings deliverance and healing A reason for hope and feeling Like He is the answer to every dream, Each prayer – He satisfies With His eternally generous gifts… The LOVE that is His signature genius The gift that brings every heart a reason Every star its twinkle, every thought… Its sense of devotion and adoration, love That makes the heart tender, The soul surrender – leaves the spirit.. In sheer splendor! Love like this is the reason… Even the stones and trees praise Him, the light who stirs nature, creation With feelings that abide On the inside – singing of the new life He awakens with His healing Love like this is the reason… I will always know, in each season He is my King, my Savior, my God The reason for my heart’s hope The light that guides me home Without Him, I’d be a gaping hole… Longing for a soul to be made whole!
