These winds they keep blowing

My sight is disturbed

And for that moment

Im told to trust in his word

 

It cold outside and it oh so dark

But i am told in his service i must embark these tears they stream down my face No one not even i knowing the cause

 

But just for a moment the sun shines though It illuminates the walls there standing beside me is the savior himself Arms wide open as can be Know i understand why i must heed his voice though i wont always be able to see

 

 

How do we lose our way

 

How do we lose our way

How do our hearts let the coldness of this world comfort it How do we block out the happiness we have recieved stop us

 

Do we sometimes forget the supplier of our happiness DO we allow ourselves to block out peace Do we forget what joy forgiveness can bring

 

Father please help us to remember

Father help us to understand

Father teach us that it is by your hand alone and not that of man

HE TRUST ME

YOU READY FOR ME
YOUR WORDS ARE SO SWEET
BUT SAVIOR I HAVE FALLEN FAR
MY FRIENDS HAVE LEFT SO MANY THINGS I'VE LOST
I DREAD THE DAY I STAND BEFORE THE BAR

I KNOW YOU ARE HERE NOT ONE DAY DO I DOUBT
BUT LORD I HAVE LOST MY WAY
AND NO ONE ELSE BELIEVES IN ME
IM SURROUNDED BY NIGHT CEASED IS THE DAY

MY CHILD I LOVE YOU AND THE THINGS YOU'VE DONE
ARE NOT THE BEST CHOICES YOU COULD HAVE MADE
BUT STRECH OUT YOUR HAND AND PUT IT IN MINE
YOU AND I WILL STAND BEFORE THE BAR AS ONE

WE'LL WORK ON SOME THINGS
AND OF COURSE FOR YOUR WRONGS YOU HAVE TO PAY
BUT I STAND BY YOUR SIDE AS LONG AS YOU TRY
YESTER TOMMORROW AND TODAY

I LOVE YOU MY CHILD DONT GIVE UP
REMEMBER I BLED FROM EVERY PORE
EVEN WHEN YOU ARE SURROUNDED BY ANIMALS WILD
REMEMBER I STAND AND KNOCK AT THE FRONT DOOR

 

When my heart begins to wonder

 

When my heart begins to wonder

When i lack in faith

there is a peace that i miss

everything falls out of place

 

that hope that i felt melts away

from the joy of my fathers plan

I think thats when i see clearly

that happiness cant come from man

 

i think in that instant i remember

what my life was like before

the veil becomes solid

and i cant ask father for more

 

but i can keep my promise

a promise i made to him

a promise that he trusted

one that shinned more than a gem

 

i know my father lives and loves

so when i doubt all other things

i know in him i can put my trust

only then can my heart sing

How can you doubt?

 

How can you doubt when it's all laid out?

Why let the world cloud your mind?

God is the same way he has always been.

The only change is time.

God speaks the same way he always spoke.

He speaks to those that are pure in heart.

God does love as he has always loved.

You dont have to be thin or smart.

 

So when you you get a chance to day.

Get on your knee and to him pray.

Be thankful count your blessings.

Lay out your whole heart and whole day.

And then sit and listen for gods way.

 

 

My Savoir still Beside Me

 

Born into this world of flames my savoir still beside me.

I filled with love when i here his name.

My Saviors' there to guide me.

The soft hand on my back, my Saviors right behind me.

The promptings to go on day by day.

A reason to live to love and pray.

I have reason to wake up another day my savior still beside me.

He hung on a cross and rose again sent two of my dearest friends to release me from the devils grasp.

All it took was in his name to ask. My savoir still beside me. Still through me he helps my friends I will be his hand to the end I know where I can turn for peace. I know my life is not a lease. But I am from my father above and because my brother showed so much love I came to earth to be tested through trails but I will return in a while and all because my savoir is still beside me

 

 

 

How can you doubt?
 
How can you doubt when it's all laid out?
Why let the world cloud your mind?
God is the same way he has always been.
The only change is time.
God speaks the same way he always spoke.
He speaks to those that are pure in heart.
God does love as he has always loved.
You don't have to be thin or smart.
 
So when you you get a chance to day.
Get on your knee and to him pray.
Be thankful count your blessings.
Lay out your whole heart and whole day.
And then sit and listen for gods way.
