Poems, Prayers and Promises

I've been lately thinking about my life's time,
All the things I've done and how it's been.
And I can't help believing in my own mind,
I know I'm gonna hate to see it end.

And talk of poems and prayers and promises,
And things that we believe in.
How sweet it is to love someone,
How right it is to care.

Show Your Love

One by one
The faces go
We meet them everyday.
But, oh what a thrill
That special face
Who touched your world one day.

Remember when
You met someone
Who brightened up your day
You hold them
Dearly in your heart
You wished they'd always stay.

So, show your love
Put a smile on your face
Let the Lord shine through you everyday
So that you might be
That special face Who touches someone else today.

Restoration

The love that was lost in the evening time,
Shall be restored again.
The burned out candle in the night,
Shall be ignited again.

To wander through the darkness,
Only draws us closer to Him.
The Love that never leaves us,
The Light that is never dim.

So...Take comfort in the knowledge,
Of His enduring Grace.
To be there right beside us,
To shine upon our face.

Your Blessings

You know Lord, there's really nothing I can do, without you in my soul,
Your love is so perfect and makes me feel so whole.
I need you each day Lord, to lighten my load,
And I need You today as I head down this road.

These paths I'm walking down, could you please shed some light,
And make the distance much shorter and the direction just right.
Being in charge of my life Lord, is where You belong,
Some days I can't walk, I'm weak and strong.

 I know that You can help me, and that You will guide me through,
And I know that Your presence is pure and it's true.
So thank you for the blessings You send to me this day,
That will keep me protected and shelter my living ways.

I know you look down Lord, from the Heavens above,
To see if there's any who seek out Your Love.
Please know that I'm thankful for the blessings You share,
I know that I'm wanted and I know that You care.

Lord Give Me Strength

Lord give me the strength,
To keep loving.
Keep my heart open only to you.
Help me shower all your love,
Like the rain from above,
Not be squandered away without for a few.

Lord give me the strength,
To keep caring.
Keep my mouth open only for you.
Help me spread only your word,
To those who haven't heard,
Not be carelessly spoken without you.

Lord give me the strength,
To be quiet.
Keep my ears open only to you.
Help me hear all of your word,
So I can share what I heard,
Not be loud and distracted without you.

Lord give me the strength,
To be humble.
Keep my eyes open only to you.
Help me to grow in your love,
Shining from heaven above,
Not be proud and self-centered without you.
