When A New Day Comes ~

When a new day comes,
for me to rise and greet
I cast all my worries
first thing at Jesus’ feet.

For then I can start,
the day feeling renewed
and my worldly cares
my thoughts can’t intrude.

When the alarm rings,
telling me it’s that time
I ask Jesus to help me
as out of bed I climb.

For I know without Him,
how hard it would be
if His strength wasn’t . . .
working throughout me.

When a new day comes,
before I get up and go . . .
my burdens like blankets
onto Jesus I off and throw!

~~~~~~~~

1 Peter 5:7

Praying you cast
all of your burdens
at Jesus’ feet

Philippians 4:13

I can do all things
through Christ
which strengtheneth me.

Isaiah 45:9

The Hands That Molded You ~

The hands that molded you,
will never let you fall . . .
they’ll always lift you up
when on them you call.

They will uphold you,
when you’re feeling weak
in love they’ll enfold you
when comfort you seek.

The hands that formed you,
are strong and steady
when trials come along
they’ll help you to be ready.

They will wrap around you,
in them courage you will find
they’ll defend and protect you
bring to you peace of mind.

The hands that molded you,
will never let you down . . .
they’ll be the same ones
handing you life’s crown!

Isaiah 64:8

“But now, O Lord, thou art our father;
we are the clay, and thou our potter;
and we all are the work of thy hand.”

James 1:12

Blessed is the man that endureth
temptation: for when he is tried,
he shall receive the crown of life,
which the Lord hath promised to
them that love him.

Embracing The Cross ~

Everyday we need to be,
the cross embracing . . .
each day we should be
like Jesus behaving.

We need into His image,
keep on transforming
and to the world ways
stop being conforming.

Everyday we need to be,
grace and love’s reflection
so with the unsaved
we can make a connection.

We need to resemble,
Jesus’ saving light
so in man’s foolish heart
our hope will shine bright.

Everyday we need to be,
to the cross adhering
so more can be ready
for His next appearing!

~~~~~~~~

Luke 10:2

Therefore said he unto them,
The harvest truly is great,
but the labourers are few:
pray ye therefore the Lord
of the harvest, that he would
send forth labourers
into his harvest.

1 Corinthians 1:18

For the preaching of the cross
is to them that perish foolishness;
but unto us which are saved
it is the power of God.

Another Helper ~

Another helper,
Jesus gave to us
someone in whom
we can always trust.

One who will indwell,
who will never leave
one on whom we can
fearlessly cleave.

One who will comfort,
when we are worry
one who has promised
our burden He’d carry.

One who will lead us,
to the Truth and Life
one who understands.
all our earthly strife.

Another helper,
to us Jesus guaranteed
someone who for us . . .
would daily intercede!

John 14:16-17

And I will pray the Father,
and he shall give you
another Comforter,
that he may abide with you
for ever;

Even the Spirit of truth;
whom the world cannot receive,
because it seeth him not,
neither knoweth him:
but ye know him; for he
dwelleth with you,
and shall be in you.

~~~~~~~

John 14:26

But the Comforter,
which is the Holy Ghost,
whom the Father will
send in my name, he shall
teach you all things,
and bring all things to your
remembrance, whatsoever
I have said unto you.

Having Spiritual Sight ~

There’s nothing quite like,
having spiritual sight . . .
seeing everything through
the Truth and the Light.

For it gives you a vision,
edifying and elating
of the beauty God has
for His saints awaiting.

There’s nothing more clear,
than an eye that can see
how salvation comes Lord
by believing in Thee.

For it looks far beyond,
the troubles of the day
by following after
the Truth and the Way.

There’s nothing quite like,
having spiritual sight . . .
for it inspires us to stay
in the faithful fight!

Waiting Till God Answers ~

When not sure of what to do,
and God hasn’t answered you
when you’re feeling down and out
and you’re full of fear and doubt.

That’s the time you need to look,
for His promises in the Good Book
you’ll find the remedy for your needs
when to His Word your spirit heeds.

When you’re troubles take over you,
and worry surrounds all you do
when you’re down and feeling sad
and your anxieties mount and add.

That’s the time you need to pray,
asking the Lord to lead the way
He will show you where to go
and His directions you will know.

When you need answered prayer,
be still as you wait to hear
for God promises with His eye
to make for you the way clear!
