New Creation


I am a new creation
Birthed in new spirit
Washed by His blood
The old man is put off
Discarded in the trash
Follow the Lord
Grow in faith
Seek nourishment from His bread

Your Quiet Voice


I find You Lord in the midst of my desert home
Among the tall cacti and the vulture
In the stillness of a summer day
I hear Your quiet still voice calling me



All Flesh is Grass


The voice said Cry
What shall I cry?
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
But Your Word stands forever
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
You Oh Lord are forever

Take comfort people of the Lord
Behold your God
The arm of the Lord shall rule
He shall feed His flock
He shall be your reward.

The voice said Cry
What shall I cry?
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
But Your Word stands forever
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
You Oh Lord are forever

Who can compare to the Lord
Our Creator Almighty
He alone deserves our praise
Lift your eyes to Him
His people know His voice

The voice said Cry
What shall I cry?
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
But Your Word stands forever
The grass withers,
The flower fades;
You Oh Lord are forever

Sacrifice


Sweet sacrifice You gave.
Offering Yourself to redeem us.
Unending love
Savory sacrifice of myself
My life following You.
May it please You forever.



Give to the Lord


The very stones themselves cry out to the Lord
Cries of praise from His creation
How is it that man is deaf and mute to Him?
What rebellious hearts we have
How long can we spurn His love?
Foolish man
Give voice to praise
Give Him all worship
Bow before Him
Give to the Lord what is His
Yourself


Do Not Forget


It is easy in the midst of day to day living
To forget You are there
It is too easy as I pay bills
To forget to Whom I owe everything
It is easy as I struggle through the daily tasks of life
To forget the work You have done
It is easy as I run through a gamut of emotions
To forget the infinite love You have for us
You first Lord
I must not forget

My heart is not always right
I am vain and selfish
Sometimes I go my own way
I forget to love You with all my heart
With all my heart, mind, soul, and strength
I am a fallen creation

You oh Lord are always true
Your divine precepts are just
Your love is everlasting
Encompassing Your wayward children
Because of Your Right Arm
I am counted among the righteous
