Dear Lord

Dear Lord I kneel before You singing praises to Your Name.  The pain's so deep within me and sin's the one to blame.  Rejoicing in Your promise and the peace that let's me stand, to suffer in Your honor till I reach the Promised Land.

Your blessings fall upon me throughout my darkest hour.  Your love is radiating to reflect Your awesome power, to heal a heart so broken and ease the pain and grief.  Your grace and mercy present to bring such blessed relief.

I know that I can trust You; Your promises are real.  My faith in You grows stronger as the wounds begin to heal.  Lord lead me where You want me, Your will I must obey.  Lord lead me to touch others who may have gone astray.

Your truth will be my armor, my life won't be the same.  In all I say and do Lord let me glorify Your name.  I live to fill Your purpose, I pray Your coming nears.  To wipe away the suffering and dry away life's tears.

I long to go to Heaven with loved ones who have died.  And join the saints before me standing at your glorious side. This earthly world around me belongs to sin alone.  I'm only here to visit - Heaven is my home.

Paintings In The Snow

I hurried through my busy day,
my plans somehow had gone astray.
With shaking hands and pounding heart,
the tensions had begun to mount.

With tapping toes, a frown was set,
I snapped at everyone I met.
The drive back home loomed dark ahead,
my body was tired, my heart was lead.

I turned the curve and time stood still.
A wondrous sight rose on the hill.
The ground and trees were bathed in white;
untouched, unspoiled and warm with light.

Though only seconds could have passed,
the joy they brought, I knew would last.
I raised my eyes to skies above;
my heavy heart grew light with love.

God painted pictures in the snow,
reminding me He loves us so.
I stopped the car and bowed in prayer,
to thank the Lord for beauty shared.
