My Light and Truth

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I seek You in the gold of dawn.

I call Your name at night.

Lord, You have always answered me,

You are my perfect light.

 

I lift my heart up to You, Lord,

I rest my soul in You.

This world is but a fleeting thought,

You’re all I know is true!

 

Psalm 43:3

Send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling!

Like A Child

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When this life weighs heavy on me

And grief drags at my heart,

I find myself down on my knees

Praying for a new start.

 

But maybe what I really need

Is an old start, once more.

It could be childhood’s heart of joy

That I need to restore.

 

In childhood, faith was easier,

But as the years went by

My faith’s been tested more than once,

And I have learned to cry.

 

Yet when I lift a tearful face

To rejoice in Your name,

Somehow the faith, I thought was lost,

Is, once more, mine to claim.

 

Lord, when this life weighs heavily,

Remind me I’m Your child

And let my faith flow boundlessly

That my joy may run wild.

 

Luke 18:17

Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.”

 

A Moment Of Your Time

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have a quiet moment, Lord,

May I spend it with You?

I really don’t have much to say,

Just a small thought or two.

 

You sent me a message last night,

Reminding me You care

And that You heard my worried thoughts.

It helps to know You’re there.

 

You walked beside me through this day

And kept me on the track

Of counting all my blessings twice,

Forgetting what I lack.

 

You walked me out, then brought me home,

You helped me the whole way,

But, if You have a bit more time,

I’d love for You to stay

And chat with me a little while

To finish off the day.

 

Matthew 11:29

Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
