I set out to write a verse
A verse of prayer and praise
Words to worship the One
Who created me and gave to me
A sense of hope, purpose, faith
Love that lingers in my soul
Capturing the essence of joy
I set out to write my thoughts
Pertaining to my Lord
The One who caused me to love
With all my heart and soul
Without conditions, limits or terms
With everything that He gave
Appreciation, kindness and grace
I set out to give back to Him
A bit of the love He’d given me
The compassion and gentleness, the charity
That came alive with a prayer for His
Love to open up my heart
And light the spark that was hope
Abiding there within my soul
I set out to bring worship to Him
Who had brought affection to my spirit
Singing to me of dreams everlasting
On visions that whisper through my heart
Forcing me to listen to the brilliant thoughts
Discovered in the miracle of His gifts
The treasure of joy found within - through Him
I set out to live my life for Him
Despite many mistakes, sins that left me sorry
I gave my best, leaving all the rest
To bring to Him my greatest attempts to give
With a heart that appreciates His gift
Of salvation, deliverance, escape from anguish
That comes to those who do not believe
I set out to listen to the whisper
Of His still, small voice – His direction
His correction, affection and the connection
That caused me to believe in His wisdom and strength
The blessing of love so alive it could dance
Through the soul on a breath from His lips
Breathing out love so sweet it leaves pure peace
I set out to give someone a chance to see
The hope, faith and love that live inside of me
Because I took the hand of the One who died for me
And listened to the voice of my Father God
Who told me to live as if I had His heart
And could love better than I could every imagine
With a love that’s been lit by a fire of compassion
I set out to give someone joy and hope
But soon discovered that He had given me the gift
Through the wisdom that lives within
When He answers a prayer I’ve prayed
For words to give back to someone a part of me
The piece of my heart that knows
He is there, alive and wise, controlling it all
I set out to give and found… His love within my soul
Love that is my eternal goal
When I failed Him – I couldn’t tell Him
How dark the dread was, how painful the doubt,
How the color black fell over my feelings
And even in the light I couldn’t see the gentleness
Through the clouds, the discouragement
When I lost my hope and I just couldn’t cope
I couldn’t understand that He was still there with me,
Reassuring my heart, even in the dark – comforting
Calming, through the worry and anxiety, past
The feelings that haunted and taunted me, the fury
That seemed to echo through my mind and thoughts,
Erasing joy and filling me up with mistrust to destroy
Every promise, every dream, every feeling of grace
Beauty became a memory, fleeting and bleeding
Through the colors, hues of compassion,
Everlasting peace and surrender to the intimacy
Tenderness that trembled with faith, with
Warmth that felt like home to me, silencing my
Tears, easing my fears – stirring the music,
The mystery, the belief that stills every uneasiness
When I didn’t know how to believe and even
The elation was so far from the praise, the worship
That honored Him with my lips – yet never
Bled through the despair, the grief, the dishonesty
A heart without joy – a heart without hope
Because I had a heart that had failed to find love
In a world He came to save, a world that is lost
Amid skepticism and mistrust, among the questions
Unspoken by lips who never mouth a prayer
Lips who never remember – He is always there
He is with me – even when I fail to love and adore,
Even when I neglect prayer and praise,
Even when I disappoint Him with my bitterness
Or give Him so many reasons to give up on me –
He is with me – even when I can’t believe He is
He is with me when I don’t feel His presence there
He is with me when I can’t find a way to silence
The doubts, the confusion, the dreadful disillusions
He is with me – through every dark night of the soul,
He makes a way out of the shadows, the murky
World where I go when I feel so lost and alone
He is with me and I know – when I praise Him
With my heart and my soul, He breathes warmth
Into the shimmering from a Son who lights the world
With a fire that becomes my heart’s one desire –
This love that is His glorious gift, His grace – His peace
The blessing of His presence – forever – He is with me!
2 Kings 6:17 (KJV) “And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.”
Darkness attacks through grief and despair,
Through spiritual battles, when the heart doubts,
When the light flashes, then sputters out,
When life is like a rambling rose, beautiful but full of thorns,
When fear attacks – quick and strong, leaving panic,
So much alarm, worry that lingers on and on…
Shadows prepare the feelings to bleed tragedy,
Through the heart who is filled with disbelief,
Through the soul who is ruined by catastrophe,
Through the spirit who is sentenced to calamity.
Shadows feed on the light who shines so bright,
The light who embraces those who believe,
The light who quenches the thirst, the need
For a union of gentleness and unending peace,
A union of joy and faith that forever believes,
A union of grace that never fails to succeed…
Shadows silence the one who longs to reach beneath…
The darkness of despair, the worries that just don’t care,
The feelings that bleed through the troubles and disasters,
The feelings that lead to the soul’s doom in the hereafter,
The feelings that can only be fought with prayer and praise,
The feelings that grow larger if you don’t have any faith.
Like the shadows – like the night’s darkness
And there, beneath the curtain, concealed so we don’t see…
All the warriors, the strongest angels, surrounding souls,
So we never need to fear – we only need to believe
The battle doesn’t go to the strongest warrior or the fiercest soldier…
The battle is won by the heart who holds onto…
Jesus’ hand, Jesus’ garment, Jesus’ promise –
He will always stand with us, forever revealing…
Our most powerful weapons…
Faith, hope and love – grace sent from God above…
More gentle than a dove – His power, His sovereignty
Comes from the knowing – His light is glowing, He’s showing – every heart, each soul…
The reason the battle is won – isn’t physical or carnal.
It is the unending authority of One whose light is love,
One who is brighter than the sun,
Because He is the brightest Son!
Children love
Not only with words
Or with deeds
But with hearts
And souls
And beliefs
They love beyond words
Beyond thoughts or ideas
More than we can reveal
With mere poetry or prose
With a heart of pure gold
And a soul inspired by faith
Believing in God’s promises
Honoring souls who honor Him
And believing in dreams that have
Been hesitant and hushed
But poured music across souls
In a dance of love and joy
A caress from the hope that anoints
The soul to be stirred by passion
Grace and an everlasting praise
Children pray
Not only with words
Or with deeds
But with hearts
And souls
And beliefs
Children leave feelings
Breathless rays of pure light
Pouring over the thoughts
Whispering insight, inspiration
Intimacy and incredible truth
Raining down like dewdrops
On the morning prayers
Children love
Not only with words
Or with deeds
But with hearts
And souls
And beliefs
Children light up with laughter
Heal with a faith that lasts
Plant wonders as seeds from joy
Water them with hope and wonder
Nourish them with faith and grace
And, when they share their beautiful
Blooms, pluck them so they can share
The experience of a love so rare
Children love
Not only with words
Or with deeds
But with hearts
And souls
And beliefs
God blesses them – these children
Who live on a prayer and praise
With their hearts, souls and minds
In ways that are so hard to design
But can only be felt with the dawn
On the light of an enchanting thought
Embracing the darkness and lifting
The gray so that morning drifts
Into focus, enchanting, enlightening
Enticing the heart to hold hope
And never give up on their dreams
Their ideas, their music that thrills
Their dance through a colorful earth
Who fills their hearts with blessings
And reminds them to always praise Him
The One who created everything so special
With a love that shows them how to live
A love that reminds them to give
A love that is the Father’s sweetest gift!
Children love
Not only with words
Or with deeds
But with hearts
And souls
And beliefs
Children know what is real!
He holds my hand
When I don’t have a friend
He guides my plans
When I don’t understand
He warms my thoughts
When I feel the chill of darkness
He shines His light
Through the shadows that destroy
He gentles my passions
Whispers truth into my falsehoods
He breaks through my pain
Calming all my fear and anxiety
He colors my thoughts
In hues of prayer and praise
He measures my hope
With His depth of sweet grace
He inspires my dreams
When I wish so eagerly for a desire
He welcomes my thanksgiving
When I know that He needs my heart
He stirs my feelings of faith
Even though I have so many doubts
He listens to my petitions
Despite the fact I’m so weak and frail
He promises to love me
Even though I can be so unlovable
He reaches out to my spirit
When I neglect the worship He needs from me
He arouses my creativeness
With joy, enthusiasm and elation
He erases my worries and dread
Painting my faith with strength that abounds
He is the answer to my problems
Calming, soothing, enlightening
He is the truth that binds my heart
With kindness, mercy and blessings
He is the feeling that glows inside me
Reminding me that my attempts are worthwhile
He is the reminder that my life
Is in His hands, where I’m sure of His care for me
He is the love that draws me toward Him
Filling my heart with tenderness that melts grief
He is the affection that frees me from despair
Awakening my spirit to the song of grace
He is the devotion that breathes joy through me
Kindling fires of compassion and wonder
He is the empathy that quiets my worst fears
Without His love, I wouldn’t be the woman I am!
Without Him… I wouldn’t know the light of hope
Without Him… I wouldn’t know the joy of peace
Without Him… I wouldn’t know the way to belief
Without Him… I wouldn’t sing a song of grace
Without Him… I wouldn’t dance with inspiration
Without Him… I wouldn’t laugh with pure elation
Without Him… I wouldn’t be free of sin and wrong
Without Him… I wouldn’t know God is my Father!
Happy Father’s Day to the One who created me
It was in church
That I first discovered the meaning
Beneath hope and faith, love and grace
It was in church
That I was first introduced
To believing in the light who never fades
It was in church
That I first knew conviction that prepares
The heart to repent and be saved by the Redeemer
It was in church
That I was first a part of the body of Christ,
Where there is prayer and praise and promise
Peace that never leaves the spirit without a chance
To know the meaning of His abiding Presence
It was in church
That I first knew that God would never forsake me
Because of His everlasting life, I’d be with Him forever
It was in church
That I found the way to hear from heaven
And, it was in church that I found the reason
For a joy that sincerely believes Him
It was in church
That I first realized I was needy
And it was in church that I learned the best
Gift is the gift of spiritual freedom
From doubt, darkness, despair – all the things
That the devil prepares to test God’s children…
Thank God He protects and provides
All the hope we will ever need, all the faith to believe
The love that assures hearts He is everything and more…
He is the promise of a heavenly home, the hope
That forever will bring with it His everlasting love
It was in church…
Where I learned and discovered
The meaning of a love that is everlasting
The hope of a prayer, the assurance that He’s there…
In the pew, at the alter – everywhere – It is HIS HOUSE!
It is in church that He prepares us –
To face a world that wants to silence us
It is in church that He reminds us –
We are His children, His light for the world
It is in church that He fights for us –
The ones He loves with the love of the SON,
Who shines, reflecting the miracle of peace that prevents us…
From listening to the world or the darkness, the sin that seeks
To destroy our faith, darken our light, dim our smiles…
It is in church that I found the simple hymn… Amazing GRACE
I once was lost… but NOW – I have HIM… Amazing GRACE
Forever, I will praise – because I’m eternally HIS!
Mountains, rising beasts
Touching the azure heavens, skies
Alive with wisps of clouds, snowy
White breaths of peacefulness
Slowly floating, waiting
For the moment, the time
When they carry the dreams
Into the horizon, seeking serenity
That is alive, like the sunlight
Reflecting the glorious beliefs
Inspirations and imagination
Ideas that thread their way through
Patterns of prayer and praise
Mountains, covered in trees
Leaves dancing in the breeze
Softly kissing the stars of night
Inspiring hope on the inside
Breathing a melody of insight
Through the one who believes, sees
His guiding light reflected on the needs
Those precious souls who listen
Heed every word – His spirit
Singing faith from the assurance
Blessed by the light of a love
Soaring across ridges, graceful, beauty
Unwilling to arouse doubt
Mountains, both dark, shadowy
And light, like the dazzling streams
Sunlight reflected on the spirit
Who believes in His touch, His caress
Lingering on the peace
Who inhales the gentle twists
Beauty and peace, entwined
Exhaling grace, satisfaction
That finds His love abiding
Growing wonders untold
Blazing trails through the soul
Who knows He is the One…
Mountains remind us…
Eternity binds us….
God is alive in us – thriving
Surviving all the worries
Guiding with a courage
That comes to those who know
His love is strong and bold
His love sings light through the ranges
Mountains – with fingerprints
His hand shaped each peak, each crag
He left the impression of grace
Across the mountains who sing
Praises – praise to Him who lives
Bringing peace to those who believe
Courage to those who have faith
Hope to the ones who pray!
Mountains remind me…
His massive gift – love that breaths out
Sincerity, faith, gifts of the spirit…
His love is mindboggling!
Chasing rainbows, chasing light
Chasing kindness, chasing smiles
Chasing goodness, chasing dreams
Chasing joy, chasing every good thing…
My life has been a series of moments,
Pasted together by gentleness, love and laughter,
The music of prayer and praise, the promises
Built by hope that lingers inside the faith that is living
In hearts who believe and souls who agree…
Grace is the miracle that brings the greatest relief
To the one who feels echoes of hurt, fear that exhausts,
Tears that attempt to break the strongest of hearts
Chasing miracles, chasing what is wise,
Chasing breathlessness, chasing the desire,
Chasing promises, chasing the muse,
Chasing freedom, chasing the hue of gentle…
My life has been a series of events,
Joined by the broken and the brilliant,
Seeking out the love and hope, the music
Beneath a moment, the rhythm sounding inside
A dream, a smile, a peace… the whisper of “amen”
Awakening the fires of faith, the amazing
In grace, the abiding passions and promises…
Reasons for every word from a sweetness
That comes to life inside the one who hears
Echoing from the heart, the beautiful, the miracle,
The wonder of a love so alive it glows like the sunrise,
Erasing sorrows and shadows, bringing light that is forever
Shining, magnificent as the love that lives and gives
More hope than the heart can hold,
Thanks to God, there is more love than I’ve ever known!
Wind whistling, revealing stories
Writing poetry, rhythms
Gentle joys, impressions glowing
Trembling testimonies
Revealing the light, reflecting
Songs burning through the night
Twilight wonders, embracing
Silence, with a heart who agrees
In the wind’s journals
Are moments who we see
As lasting serenity, soothing away
Each fear, blessing each lonely tear
Stirring the heart to consider
All the music the wind plays, though
Bitter, she glistens in gestures
Falling leaves, soundless kisses
Quiet as the breath of a dying Savior
Who gave us the music of prayer and praise,
Delivering us from the sin prison
Where we lay broken and beyond help,
Redeeming us from the night of despair
When nothing could save us…
Yet He saves to the uttermost
He saves so that we’re filled with hope
He saves so that the Christmas story
Is one of light, love and glory…
A story that burns through every shadow,
Weakens the darkness and expresses,
Everlasting love that was sent from above,
Come down to us – to save what was lost,
To sing confidence through the wind,
To remind us all, despite our sins,
We have a Savior who is also a friend
One who will stay beside us until the end,
And then… lead us to heaven, hand in hand
With the joy of a love that has always been!
Merry Christmas – keep the light of Him
Who came to show us that love will always win.
A silent star glistens,
Pulsating on the edges of sapphire
Skies so alive with animated
Joy, bursting from the nocturnal
Forging through the silence,
Erasing the melancholic
With beautiful more amazing
Than the heart’s star gazing…
A silent tear glistens,
Trembling on the edges of the heart,
Moans so deep, inflicting
Hopes and dreams with grief,
Gently coloring the spirit
With a sense of what it means to ache,
Intense as heartbreak,
Breathed by the winds who forsake…
A silent night glistens,
Glowing on the edges of kindness,
Breathing prayer and praise,
To the One who created it all,
Every star, every tear, every night,
Mysteries beyond our describing,
Shadows and songs still hiding,
Beneath the seas of a life…
Life cries out from the spirit’s rising,
Hesitating beneath the light,
Embracing dreams,
Flowing in liquid grace,
Stirring the soul to just see,
He is hope, faith, love like no other,
Love that might suffer,
But love that will never end…
Because of Him, I have a true friend.
Because of Him, I’m saved from all fear.
Because of Him, I’ll have all eternity…
To love the way He always meant me to,
To love because He is the love everlasting,
Even the blind can see – the weak are made strong,
Because He wrote the words to each story…
One fine day, we’ll meet Him there in glory!
