The Pure Word of God ~

Lord, give me the Word,
in its true and pure form
I want to hear how it can
still change and transform.

I don’t want it altered,
distorted in any way
I don’t want to listen to
the polluted one of today.

I want to hear the Word,
talk to me about my sin
I want to know with You
the battles ours to win.

I don’t want it watery,
diluted or thinned down
I don’t want it weakened
by changing all the nouns.

Lord, give me the Word,
in its true and pure form
You know the one I mean . . .
for lives, it can transform!

Speak to Me Lord ~

Speak to me ~ Lord ~ speak to me,
tell me what I want to hear . . .
tell me You will never leave me
tell me You’ll always be near.

Speak to me ~ Lord ~ speak to me,
tell me the things I should know
tell me all there is about You
tell me how much more I can grow.

Speak to me ~ Lord ~ speak to me,
tell me about Your mercy and love
tell me where I can go to find You
tell me about my home up above.

Speak to me ~ Lord ~ speak to me,
tell me how I can be closer to You
tell me everyday where You want me
tell me what I should say and do.

Speak to me ~ Lord ~ speak to me,
tell me what I want to hear . . .
tell me how much You adore me
whisper Your love for me in my ear!

Whispers of Faith ~

Whispers of promises,
brush across my face
words spoken softly
of His glorious grace.

Whispers of faith,
stills my every fear
words lifting upward
murmurs, Jesus is near.

Whispers of truth,
lessens my pain
words, life-giving words
releases the strain.

Whispers of joy,
caught in the breeze
words lightly falling
to soothe and to ease.

Whispers of hope,
peaceful and calm
words caressing my soul
like a healing balm.

Whispers of Jesus,
flutterings of His love
words touching down
from heaven above!

Give Yourself a Gift ~

When you’re feeling down,
and you need a lift
just pick up your Bible
and give yourself a gift.

For inside you’ll find,
God’s promises galore
for you to find and claim
if your Bible you’d explore.

When you’re feeling anxious,
remember this one thing
since God is on our side
what good will worry bring.

For He is our peaceful God,
who showers us from above
with the gentleness of His mercy
in the tenderness of His love.

When you’re feeling lonesome,
and it seems no one cares
though you might be all alone
know that God hears your prayers.

For He is the morning wind,
that blows across your face
touching you with His goodness
caressing you with His grace.

When you’re feeling discouraged,
and deep waters begin to flow
cast your cares upon Him
and just watch His blessings grow.

For He is your Rock and anchor,
He will never let you drown
He will turn all your deep rivers
into dry and solid ground.

All the assurance that you need,
is written in the Good Book
but you’ll have to pick it up
and take for yourself a look!
