A Sabbath Praise

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, Lord, I lift a Sabbath praise

For bringing me this far.

I often question who I am,

But never who You are.

 

I never doubted I love You,

Or that You loved me, too.

I only questioned how You could,

With all the wrong I do.

 

With all the trouble I have made,

The pain that I cause You,

You still redeemed me, called me Yours.

In You I am made new.

 

I’m not yet who I’m meant to be,

But You’re still who You are,

And I’ll lift You this Sabbath praise

For bringing me this far.

 

Romans 5:8

but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

His Healing Light

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The sun will rise and I shall sing

My praises of delight,

For I am blessed to live within

His perfect, healing Light.

 

Although I may sometimes feel lost,

Wandering aimlessly,

He keeps my feet upon His path.

He sees what I can’t see,

 

He leads me through the darkest vales

And shields me in the night.

When tempests rise, I do not fear,

I shelter in His might.

 

There is no place that I can go,

Where He cannot see me,

So, I will rise up in the dawn

And praise Him joyously!

 

Malachi 4:2

But for you who fear my name, the sun of righteousness shall rise with healing in its wings. You shall go out leaping like calves from the stall.

In Stillness

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In stillness I will wait for You

Until I hear Your voice.

In that moment my heart will sing

And my soul will rejoice.

 

I cannot always hear You speak,

Or feel You by my side,

Until I’ve stepped out of the noise

In which I daily bide.

 

But when I slip off by myself

And let Your stillness in,

I hear You call me by my name,

And I’m at peace again.

 

James 4:8

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
