Take my heart,
all my pains,
help me Lord,
cleanse the stains.

Take my soul,
all I am,
help me Lord,
just to stand.

Take my mind,
all my fears,
help me Lord,
end my tears.

Take my strength
and my pride,
help me Lord,
not to hide.

Take my hand,
lead me through,
help me Lord,
to love You.

"The most important one," answered Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31 The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." Mark 12:29-31

Ready,
almost ready.
The time
fast approaching.
Just watch
for when I fly.

My Heart

~ yeah been absent for a while... ~
My heart it has been broken
but I know that it shall mend
My heart it has been broken
I know it shall break again.

I do my best to guard it
and to keep it safe from pain
I do my best to guard it
but know it shall break again.

I learn to live with heartache
although this can be a strain,
I learn to live with heartache
because it shall break again.

Here I Am

This music is from awesome artist Andrew Ironside http://www.andrewironside.com/ I absolutely love his music!

In the midst of chaos
I find peace.
Turmoil surrounds me
as I breathe.

A moment,
stolen.

Refocussed,
I ready myself
for the plunge.

I enter again
the chaos.

The almighty God,
creator of all,
no words can sing of his worth.

The rocks and the trees,
shout loud of his grace,
all of creation sings praise.

My heart beats his name,
each breath tells of him,
my life is a testament.

Cry out without words,
for our Lord and King,
sing praise for our Lord who reigns!

I love you Lord

Worn out
day's end.

Day spent
in glorious moments
of enjoyment,
'me time',
recharging.

So busy
getting ready
nothing got done.

He is Here

Early in the morning;
He is here,
He is here.

When the sun is brightest;
He is here,
He is here.

When the night is falling;
He is here,
He is here.

When the dark is deepest;
He is here,
He is here.

When my heart is joyful;
He is here,
He is here.

When my mind is fearful;
He is here,
He is here.

When I flee in terror;
He is here,
He is here.

When my soul is lonely;
He is here,
He is here.

When I feel unwanted;
He is here,
Always here.

You Are Here

You are here,
always here,
constantly.

You don't leave,
you are here
by my side.

You love me
all the time,
you are here.

Jesus came
He took my sins
and hid them for all time.

Now I know
that I am free
to be forever thine.

Lift Your Voices High

Join with me,
shout and sing.
Lift your voices high!

Care not what
others may say.
Lift your voices high!

Cry out with words,
sing through dance.
Lift your voices high!

Paint your love
in colours bright.
Lift your voices high!

Play your music,
play it loud.
Lift your voices high!

Worship Him bold,
worship Him strong.
Lift your voices high!

Weep Not

Hey all! This is just a rough experiment. Let me know what you think. The music is from Vivaldi's 'Winter'

The Judger

How dare you judge me,
you who knows me not.
You think you have the right
since you are so much better than I.
You are obviously
the best person in the world,
utterly without sin or fault!

How dare you judge me,
without knowing my name or situation.
How dare you sneer in my direction,
then pretend I do not exist.

I could have been the person
you were waiting for,
could have added joy to your life
if given a chance
without condemnation.

But you have already burdened me
with false accusations,
so I shall leave you with your sorrows
and take my unwanted gifts as I go.

The Evil One

The evil one calls out my name
and offers gifts so tempting.
He whispers promises to me
to meet my heart’s desires.

I cannot see beyond the gifts
believing that I earned them.
With arms outstretched I grab what’s mine
and Satan gently sneaks in.

Everything seems superb at first,
but gifts they quickly tarnish.
My conscience prods my senses ‘til
I realise I’ve been foolish.

By then I truly am entrenched
in thoughts of my own greatness
and do not want to live without
the pleasures I was gifted.

The Shining One calls out my name
and offers freedom tempting.
He whispers truths and promises
to be my heart’s desire.

He weans me from my dependence
on he who is deceitful,
revealing my heavenly gifts
and sets me to my purpose.

Unmarried Woman

“an unmarried woman is concerned about the Lord’s affairs: her aim is to be devoted to the Lord in both body and spirit.” 1 Corinthians 7:34

The unmarried woman’s
concern’s are the Lord’s.
She is devoted to Him
in all ways.

So on Him I must focus,
put Him before all.
I must work
for the sake of His kingdom.

As a single young woman
I want to focus on me,
but must put
my desires to one side.

As I await my love story
with all of my heart,
I shall look to my King
for my love.

Call me what you like

Oh God, you are my God
