Spirit Of God ~
Spirit of God,
mighty and holy
teach us to live
for You wholly.
Bring to us,
power and might
let us be
for You a light.
Spirit of God,
lead and guide
teach us how
we can abide.
Help us to remain,
on the narrow way
to the left or right
help us not to stray.
Spirit of God,
rest upon us
with holy fear
may You we trust!
~~~~~
“And the spirit
of the Lord shall
rest upon him,
the spirit of wisdom
and understanding,
the spirit of counsel
and might,
the spirit of knowledge
and of the fear
of the Lord;”

My Steps Are Preset ~
This year I’m stepping out,
letting my faith take me
to wherever God wants
or plans for me to be.
My steps He will order,
upon a firm foundation
so I will need to be ready
to fall into formation.
If I should stumble,
I know I will not fall
for God will uphold me
when on His name I call.
Onward I will go,
on the path God determines
for I know He has for me
some faith building excursions.
If I should lose my way,
I know I will not get lost
for God will encourage me
to keep my eyes on the cross.
This year I’m stepping out,
trusting the way God will direct
for I know my steps of faith . . .
He’s already planned and preset!
~~~~~~~~~
“The steps of a good man
are ordered by the Lord:
and he delighteth in his way.
Though he fall, he shall not
be utterly cast down:
for the Lord upholdeth
him with his hand.”

My Soul Restored ~
My soul God restores,
whenever I stray
He leads me straight back
onto the narrow way.
He tells me where,
I have gone wrong
shows me the places
I do not belong.
My soul God restores
with His mercy and grace
for, His arms long to keep me
in His loving embrace.
He knows I’m weak,
He knows I’m frail
He knows sin in my life
must not ever prevail.
My soul God restores,
He brings it to repentance
for, His love for me . . .
is fierce and relentless!

United ~
When God teaches you,
the truth He will show
and the things of His will
you will want to know.
When God in His Word,
begins to guide you
you’ll want godly conduct
in the things that you do.
When God teaches you,
how to walk on His way
you will choose carefully
the things that you say.
When God gives directions,
to the Cross it will lead
there you’ll find Jesus
and the grace to be freed.
When God teaches you,
of His power and might . . .
He’ll fill you with holy fear
and your hearts will unite!
~~~~~~~~
Teach me thy way, O Lord;
I will walk in thy truth:
unite my heart to fear thy name.

Our Waymaker ~
God is our Waymaker,
His paths He makes known
when we seek His will
to us they’ll be shown.
His ways are perfect,
His instructions are right
He leads with His staff
guides with His light.
God is our Waymaker,
when we’re committed
and in His Word
we are fully outfitted.
His ways are prosperous,
eternal life, the reward
when Jesus becomes
your Savior and Lord.
God is the Waymaker,
put your life in His hands
and He will show you . . .
His paths and His plans!
~~~~~~~~
“Behold, I will do a new thing;
now it shall spring forth;
shall ye not know it?
I will even make a way
in the wilderness, and
rivers in the desert.”

Mountain Climbing Faith ~
I’m climbing this mountain,
and I’m not going to stop
my confidence in God . . .
will get me to the top.
I’ll tackle every obstacle,
I will confront every fear
my absolute trust in God
will be my safety gear.
I’ll get over my doubt,
I’ll get by the obstructions
my faith in God’s Word
will provide the directions.
I’ll combat the terrain,
I’ll move each hindrance
my eternal hope in God
will give me the assurance.
I’m climbing this mountain,
I will not fall or drop
for God promised me . . .
a reward at the top!
~~~~~~~~
“Let us hold fast the profession
of our faith without wavering;
(for he is faithful that promised;)

For Thou Are With Me ~
Lord, You’ll never leave me,
this I know is a fact
for You have my front
and You guard my back.
You see all my comings,
and notice wherever I go
Your rod and staff
makes my faith grow.
For, they lead and direct me,
to pastures where I gleam
the truth of Your Spirit
beyond valleys green.
In the middle of my troubles,
there I can find You
in the midst of my worries
You are there too.
Your eyes are ever on me,
Your ears listen to my prayers
I can always trust You
to take from me my cares.
Lord, You’re my future hope,
my brighter eternal day
where for eternity we’ll be
if I let You lead the way!
~~~~~~~~~
Psalm 23:4b
King James Version
For thou art with me;
thy rod and thy staff
they comfort me.”

The Reason for My Hope
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter 3:15
King James Version"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
and be ready always to give an answer to
every man that asketh you a reason of the hope
that is in you with meekness and fear:"Copyright 2014

~ What Can Man Do? ~
I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!~~~~~~~
Psalm 62:1-2
"Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.
"He only is my rock and my salvation;
he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved."King James Version
