My Soul Is Stirred


I read Your Word
my soul is stirred

Father God, I present this plea
how can mere words have such impact?
The light comes on and that’s a fact
which puts men’s thoughts to inquiry.

How can mere words have such impact?
You formed the world with “Let there be…”
Christ spoke to winds and calmed the sea
The light comes on and that’s a fact.

I read Your Word
How can mere words have such impact?
unless your Spirit speaks to me
The light comes on and that’s a fact.
my soul is stirred

my soul is stirred
I read Your Word

Strong bonds don't end.
Get a good friend.

Do this and you’ll not be contrite.
Good friends are as precious as gold,

Make a friendship that’s good and tight.

Good friends are as precious as gold.
They’ll get over it when you fight.

Premium Member Vintage Time

Wild rapid peaks
   of sunrise cheeks.

The man I wed, my choice was fine.
      In hold of hands, whirlpool with you,
   Our troubles spout a robust hue.
We laugh, we land on years, sublime.

In hold of hands, whirlpool with you,
      We bounce along the crest of time.
   In citrus sun of lemon-lime,
Our troubles spout a robust hue.

Wild rapid peaks
   In hold of hands. Whirlpool with you -
      Its spin, worthwhile, at vintage time.
   Our troubles spout a robust hue
Of sunrise cheeks.

   Of sunrise cheeks,
Wild rapid peaks…

Premium Member Love Abounds

As love abounds
God’s grace surrounds.

We are then cared well, blest indeed
to inspire gratefulness’ delight
while sharing bliss of kindness’ light
our hearts reach out to those in need.

To inspire gratefulness’ delight
we overcome selfishness-greed
our faith enlivens prayer creed 
while sharing bliss of kindness’ light.
 
As love abounds
to inspire gratefulness’ delight
we enjoy every helping deed
while sharing bliss of kindness’ light
God’s grace surrounds.

God’s grace surrounds
as love* abounds.

Titus 3:4 … The kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared.

Premium Member God Search Our Aim

In this life game
God search our aim

Something’s wrong, we feel incomplete
Trapped in the open, free within
Our heart beckons, we go therein
Dancing to rhythm of love’s beat

Trapped in the open, free within
We surrender self, at God’s feet
By love buoyed, our soul is upbeat 
Our heart beckons, we go therein

In this life game 
Trapped in the open, free within
We’re soon suffused with bliss replete 
Our heart beckons, we go therein 
God search our aim

God search our aim 
In this life game

Premium Member Wings of a Dove

 
lovely, is love
wings of a dove

kisses feathery as snowflakes
like heavenly sent sweet magic
lost in an ocean pelagic
ethereal until daybreaks

like heavenly sent sweet magic
but, there are days when the heart aches
and there are days when my world shakes
lost in an ocean pelagic

lovely, is love
like heavenly sent sweet magic
love gives and never ever takes
lost in an ocean pelagic
wings of a dove . . . 

wings of a dove
lovely, is love

Premium Member What Will They Learn

What will they learn
should I return?

All in the name of humankind, 
the country sends me off to war.
"Abandon those that you adore;
It's here in ink and blood; you signed."

The country sends me off to war.
"March forward; do not look behind,"
they say, "Your fate is predefined.
Abandon those that you adore."

What will they learn?
The country sends me off to war.
"There may be damage; body, mind;
abandon those that you adore."
Should I return?

Should I return
what will they learn?

A Signal Shown

(a meditative ballad)


a signal shown
in silence sown

Searching like strangers in the night
they met each other, a look, a smile.
Angels in the dark, with no guile,
their inner voice directs the light.

They met each other, a look, a smile
He preached the Word with godly might
without reply, no fear, no flight
angels in the dark, with no guile.

A signal shown
they met each other,  a look, a smile
She watered seeds, then spoke aright,
angels in the dark, with no guile
in silence sown.

In silence sown
a signal shown

Little Lives Plead

Little lives plead,
Don’t make them bleed.

God-given gifts, they must be spared, 
Let us say no to abortion,
It’s a sin worse than extortion,
Snuffing innocent lives uncared; 

Let us say no to abortion,
Expecting love, they’re unprepared
For the cruel deed that has snared,
It’s a sin worse than extortion;

Little lives plead,
Let us say no to abortion,
Their cries for mercy, I have shared,
It’s a sin worse than extortion,
Don’t make them bleed;

Don’t make them bleed ~
Little lives plead.

Premium Member I Am True Blue

I am true blue
Loyal to you

When your heart cries out in sorrow
I will shelter you from your fears
keep your eyes from spilling their tears
I will steadfastly staunch their flow

I will shelter you from your fears
shield you from and an evil foe
raise your spirits when they are low
keep your eyes from spilling their tears

I am true blue
I will shelter you from your fears
until your smile begins to glow
keep your eyes from spilling their tears
Loyal to you

Loyal to you
I am true blue
