Trusting the Lord,
with each new day
knowing He’ll show me
His perfect way.
Praying for wisdom,
guidance too
knowing He’ll show me
what I should do.
Waiting for answers,
to my requests
knowing He’ll show me
when the time is best.
Holding on to my hope,
embracing His love
knowing He’ll show me
what He is made of.
Trusting the Lord,
with all of my soul
knowing my life
is in His control!

Psalm 9:10
“And they that know thy name
will put their trust in thee:
for thou, Lord, hast not forsaken
them that seek thee.”

When I need to hear,
the voice of my Shepherd
I go to His Word . . .
where His voice can be heard.
It is easy to recognize,
His voice as I read . . .
for my soul He nourishes
as on His Word I feed.
When I need instructions,
to get me through the day
His voice always leads me . . .
to the Life, Truth and Way.
It is easy to follow,
the direction that He gives
for it guides me to where
the Holy Spirit lives.
When my Shepherd’s voice,
I need to hear and know
I go to my Bible . . .
and follow where He shows!
~~~~~~~~
John 10:27
My sheep hear my voice,
and I know them,
and they follow me:
Romans 10:17
So then faith cometh by hearing,
and hearing by the word of God.

Sometimes I ask the Lord,
what are You waiting for
why haven’t You to me
opened up this door.
I’ve patiently waited,
for Your go, to go inside
but here I still stand . . .
stuck on the outside.
I don’t know why,
this door is yet shut
the way into it . . .
looks to me clear-cut.
Through the keyhole,
I took myself a look
and saw everything
I thought was by the Book.
Sometimes I ask the Lord,
what are You waiting for
often He tells me child . . .
it’s still not the right door!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 32:8
I will instruct thee

Troas to preach Christ’s gospel,
and a door was opened unto
me of the Lord,

Knowing God’s will,
takes a lot of patience
before He reveals
all He has awaiting us.
It takes a heart yielding,
to know just what to do
it takes a life willing
to wait till He shows how to.
Knowing God’s will,
takes a lot of believing
that His plans for you
one day you’ll be receiving.
It takes one step at a time,
made with faith and trust
for us to be able to see
the purposes He has for us.
Knowing God’s will
doesn’t come to us overnight
it takes time for God . . .
to reveal His divine insight!

When my soul is thirsty,
as if it was in a drought
to God I go right to . . .
with all my fear and doubt.
For I know He’ll guide me,
through this arid place
and give me the direction
for staying in the race.
When I’m feeling weary,
and my soul feels bone dry
when with every move
all I want to do is cry.
I know the Lord is with me,
and He won’t let me fail
as He continues to guide me
on the righteous trail.
When my soul is thirsty,
when I feel I’m on the brink
the Lord satisfies me . . . .
with living waters to drink!
~~~~~~~~

And the Lord shall guide thee

My ears are attentive,
I listen until I hear
God’s words of wisdom
come in loud and clear.
My mind is intent,
to learn and to know
how tomorrow I’ll reap
what today I sow.
My heart I incline,
to take it all in
so I may be able
to conquer all sin.
My soul I guard,
I make it aware
of satan’s deceiving
traps and snares.
My ears and my mind,
are on the ready . . .
to keep my heart and soul
faithfully steady!

Life can be challenging,
with lots of highs and lows
all depending on the way
in which we have chose.
For it’s all about our choices,
we daily have to make
that determines if we keep
heading for the narrow gate.
Life can be difficult,
with lots of curves and bends
plenty of different ways
leading us to dead ends.
For it’s not always clear,
which road we need to take
but, until God shows us . . .
we need to step on the brake.
Life can be challenging,
but, it really needn’t be
if we left the choice to God . . .
every good path we would see!

God’s plans for you,
are yours to discover . . .
they’re found in your Bible
from cover to cover.
A future of hope,
for you He has in store
once you open to Him
your seeking heart’s door.
Your life He will guide,
when you seek Him first
He’ll satisfy your needs
your hunger and thirst.
Once to Him you commit,
your steps He will guide
when directions you need
He’ll help you to decide.
God’s plans for you,
are easy to find . . .
but, first you must seek Him
with all your heart and mind!

Sometimes God nudges me,
to see if I am listening
to that still small voice
inside me whispering.
He wants to see if I’ll heed,
to His inaudible leading
to see if to His guidance
I’m willing to be yielding.
He applies gentle pressure,
in my heart and on my mind
to see if His plans for me
I’m willing to go and find.
He wants to see if I’ll ask,
to be by Him directed
and if by His wisdom
I’m willing to be perfected.
Sometimes God nudges me,
with whispers calm and sill
to see if I am willing . . . .
to really know His will!

Along the righteous path,
there are promise galore
for us to discover . . .
to search and explore.
For God promised to lead us,
on the road that is straight
and to show us the Way . . .
to get to the narrow gate.
He said we could ask Him,
for His guidance, divine
and to give us the endurance
to make it to the finish line.
God said it wouldn’t be easy,
there would be lots of stress
but He’d give us the grace
to continue to onward press.
He said we’d find His favor,
His mercy and goodness . . .
to reveal His purposes and plans
so to prove to us His kindness.
Along the righteous path,
God promised He’d lead
and we will find them all . . .
if our Bible’s we would read!

I hear You Jesus,
Your voice I recognize
I’m aware of the wolves
wearing a sheep’s disguise.
I hear You Jesus,
I listen for Your inflection
I know the tone they use
lacks truth and direction.
I hear You Jesus,
I’m aware of Your teachings
I know the false promises
the others are preaching.
I hear You Jesus,
I am able to distinguish
the strange voices who want
my faith in You, to extinguish.
I hear You Jesus,
it’s only You who I’ll follow
for the voice of the others . . .
are deceptive and hollow!

John 10:4-5
“And when he putteth forth
his own sheep, he goeth

And a stranger will they not follow,
but will flee from him: for they know
not the voice of strangers.”

Beware of false prophets,
which come to you in sheep’s

Whenever I need,
God to inspire . . .
when my Spirit needs
to be lifted higher.
I open up my Bible,
and I begin to read
just why His Word
everyday I need.
Whenever my faith,
needs to be corrected
the Scriptures help me
to get redirected.
For they give to me,
precise instructions
how to overcome
worldly seductions.
Whenever I need,
some good old reproof
God’s Word stops me from
becoming too aloof!

2 Timothy 3:16
All scripture is given by

We all need God’s help,

We need God’s guidance,
to continue as we go
we need His power
in our lives to flow.
We need God’s support,

we need His favor

We need God’s assistance,

we need His strength

We all need God’s help,
in the things we have to do
we all need His mercy . . .
in our lives each day anew!

I don’t believe,
everything I hear
not all things . . .
sit well in my ear.
Instead I search,
for what is true
that is why Lord
I consult with You.
I don’t listen to,
the people’s rants
nor pay attention
to their chants.
Instead I seek,
for God to advise
before my thoughts
I choose to exercise.
I don’t believe,
for believing’s sake
because I know . . .
so much now is fake!

Lord, into this valley,
I don’t want to go . . .
but, I trust and believe
the way down You’ll show.
It looks so very dark,
right now all I can see
are all of the obstacles
staring back up at me.
Lord, look how very low,
this gaping valley appears
it’s filling me with dread
as I look down on my fears.
But, I know that You will,
be my guiding light
and bless me with strength
to make the long flight.
Lord, into this valley I go,
and I’m not going to stop . . .
for You’re the God of valleys
as well as the hill’s top!

If God’s hand is guiding,
then why aren’t we led . . .
if He feeds His sparrows
then why aren’t we fed?
If all things are possible,
then where’s the victory . . .
if joy comes in the morning
then why so much misery?
If God is our Shepherd,
then where are His sheep . . .
if we’re to be alert
then why do so many sleep?
If God is the potter,
then where is the clay . . .
if He leads us to righteousness
then why with fire do we play?
If God hand is leading,
by faith we need to grab on
before it’s too late . . .
and our last days are gone!

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!

speak to me thru Your Spirit

Talk to me Lord, talk to me,
make with me a connection
for I am counting on You
to give me Your direction.
Talk to me Lord and lead me,

tell me to go right or left

Father I thank You,
today for Your grace
and the wisdom I need
to wisely run the race.
For, I know of the evil,
I will witness today
and to walk cautiously
must be my mainstay.
Father I thank you,
today for Your direction
for the wisdom to have
in the world no connection.
For, though times are dark,
You make it clear to me
how living like a fool
I do not want to be.
Father I thank you,
for helping me to walk wise
so that I can be mindful
of satan’s traps and lies!
~~~~~~
Ephesians 5:15-17
“See then that ye walk circumspectly,
not as fools, but as wise,
Redeeming the time,
because the days are evil.
Wherefore be ye not unwise,
but understanding what
the will of the Lord is.”

When you’re not sure,
of the way to go . . .
when you need someone
the correct way to show.
Open up your ears,
to God’s divine direction
and He will lead you
to the path of perfection.
When you’re not convinced,
which way you should turn . . .
when you need to have
the wisdom to discern.
Open up your Bible,
learn to walk in it ways
and God will lead you
for the rest of your days.
When you need directions,
so you can be Spirit led . . .
open up your ears . . .
to that voice in your head!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 30:21
And thine ears shall hear
a word behind thee, saying
This is the way walk ye in it
when ye turn to the right hand
and when ye turn to the left

Jesus is my friend,
on Him I can count
to help me figure
all my problems out.
For, He will guide me,
though the process
on how over them
not to obsess.
Jesus is my friend,
on Him I can rely
for He is my daily
most valuable ally.
For, He teaches me,
what I should know
about how His Father
would have me to go.
Jesus is my friend,
in Him I find rest
for I know He has
for me only His best!
~~~~~~~~
John 15:15
Henceforth I call you not servants;
for the servant knoweth not what
his lord doeth: but I have called you
friends; for all things that I have heard
of my Father I have made known unto you.

Sometimes God makes me wait,
though I would rather just up and go
sometimes He tells me . . .
My child you need to take it slow.
Sometimes He says to get up,
when I would rather stay down
sometimes He tells me . . .
My child you need to turn around.
Sometimes God makes me sit still,
when I would rather proceed
sometimes He tells me . . .
My child your will to Me concede.
Sometimes He says to walk,
when I would rather off and run
sometimes He tells me . . .
My child put your trust in My Son.
Sometimes God makes me wait,
sometimes He tells me to go . . .
but, most of the time He tells me
My child be still till you know!
~~~~~~~~

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage,
and he shall strengthen thine heart:

Let God direct your steps,
let Him take you to . . .
all the different places
He has planned for you.
For He knows just where,
He would have you to be
and all of His purposes
for you He wants you to see.
Let God direct your steps,
let Him show to you
all the things He’s planned
for you to go and do.
For He already knows,
what is for you His will
so take the time to stop
to listen and be still.
Let God direct your steps,
and give to Him you ways
so He may lead and guide you
for the rest of your days!

A man’s heart deviseth his way:

Lord, show us Your paths,
as long as we exist . . .
to Your righteous ways
may we never resist.
Teach us to be still,
until the timing is right
give us the strength
in the battles we fight.
Let us not be impatient,
til in the future we meet
guide each and every step
of our oft stumbling feet.
Keep us from becoming,
ever fearful and afraid
let us not limit You
so we’ll not be dismayed.
Lord, show us Your Ways,
reveal to us Your plans . . .
so we may come to rest
in Your almighty hands!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 37:7a
Rest in the Lord,
and wait patiently
for him:
Isaiah 41:10
Fear thou not;
for I am with thee:
be not dismayed;
for I am thy God:
I will strengthen thee; yea,
I will help thee;
yea, I will uphold thee
with the right hand
of my righteousness.

The Lord leads me,
through the valleys and dells
He takes me to places
where righteousness dwells.
It is there where I find,
His guiding hand
showing me just where
my steps should land.
The Lord takes me,
up the mountains and hills
He takes me to places
for me to discover His will.
It’s there where I observe,
the path planned for me
as He directs my feet . . .
to where they need to be.
The Lord takes me,
to places high and low
to make it clear to me
the way I should go!
~~~~~~~~
Psalm 107: 7
And he led them forth
by the right way,
that they might go to
a city of habitation.

he leadeth me in the
paths of righteousness
for his name’s sake.

Lord, show me Your ways,
reveal them to me
lead and guide my steps
to where they should be.
Grant me Your mercy,
always be by my side
for the road is too rough
and the path is so wide.
Instruct and teach me Lord,
in the way I should go
for the hills are too lofty
and the valleys so low.
Encourage me daily,
to hold on to Your hand
for the canyons are too steep
and the mountains so grand.
Lord, show me Your path,
teach me in Your ways
let Your light lead me . . .
for the rest of my days!
~~~~~~~~

God’s ways are wise,
they’re full of wisdom
for they go against
the world’s system.
They lead and guide,
to the righteous way
not the one followed
so widely today.
God’s ways are holy,
they are profound
nothing about them
are found unsound.
For they are rich,
thoughtful and deep
bringing mercy and hope
when His truths we keep.
God’s ways are wise,
for He has a plan
redemptive and perfect
for all of man!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 55:8
For my thoughts are
not your thoughts,
neither are your ways
my ways, saith the Lord.
Romans 11:33
O the depth of the riches both
of the wisdom and knowledge of God!
how unsearchable are his judgments,
and his ways past finding out!

Sometimes God whispers,
this is the way to us . . .
to see if His prompting
we are willing to trust.
He opens up doors,
to see if we’ll go through
then watches with them
what we’re willing to do.
Sometimes God whispers,
this is the way to go . . .
to see if we will follow
or be a no-show.
He makes clear a path,
for us to begin our walk
then observes if our faith
matches our believer’s talk.
Sometimes God whispers,
this is the way right here . . .
to see if His voice
we’re even willing to hear!
~~~~~~~~
Isaiah 30:21
And thine ears shall hear
a word behind thee, saying,
This is the way, walk ye in it,
when ye turn to the right hand,
and when ye turn to the left.

If the Lord is our Shepherd,
why then do we still want?
If He supplies all our needs,
why do our lacks still taunt?
If besides still waters He leads,
why then do we still fear?
If He fills us with quietness,
why don’t we hold Him near?
If green pastures bring peace,
why then are we still stressed?
If He leaves us not lacking,
why don’t we feel blessed?
If He restores our souls,
why then do we still doubt?
If He satisfies our deep thirst,
why is their still a drought?
If in righteousness He guides,
why then do we still wander?
If the Lord is truly our Shepherd,
we needn’t these things ponder!
~~~~~~~
Psalm 23:1-3
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down
in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside
the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths
of righteousness
for his name’s sake.
