You Are Our Glory:God Save Us All

God save us all
Show us your mercy
Hold me closer in your arms
I need to feel you breathing inside of me

I never want to be far from you
I’m sure to lose my way without you 
I need you more and more 
Each minute of  my life 

Lord help me to know you better
I lose my faith, I’m getting weaker
Help me to walk bravely 
Into the blinding light

Baptize the spirit in me
Wash away my sins
Help me to get a little closer to you
That's where I belong

Because life can be so full of sadness
A loveless world that’s full of madness
Take me by the hand and guide me
towards your love

Baptize the spirit in me
Wash away my sins
Help me to get a little closer to you
That's where I belong

Indeed, our vibrant relationship with God, Lord and Saviour, the giver of eternal life, gives us victory. According to 2Corinthians 2:14, "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place." (KJV) God bless you.

The mystery of God both immanent and transcendent. We honor Him as the King of all creation and yet he also stands as a friend. Be blessed!

It's a cry I've had with our Creator for a long time... but I was selfish then...I wanted things my way... Well, I've learned to be humble, patient and kind...as the best policy...and most of all just to do my best and be calm...
