A Clean, New Heart ~

 

A clean heart Lord,

create in us

one free of sin

evil and lust.

 

Free of worldliness,

free of selfish greed

free to see You are

everything we need.

 

A renewed Spirit Lord,

put into us

one that will always

in You put its trust.

 

Alert and resistant,

to the lies satan tells

one where Your own Spirit

abides and dwells.

 

A clean heart create,

a right spirit bestow

Lord in our lives

so Your will we may know!

Psalm 51:10

“Create in me a clean heart,
O God; and renew a right
spirit within me.”

Touched Anew ~

Lord, touch me anew,
refresh my heart
upon my soul
new mercy impart.

Give me a fresh look,
into Your righteousness
let me see Your favor
with a new clearness.

Let me trust you,
with a new confidence
so I may see the light
of Your providence.

Let me see Your grace,
from a new point of view
so my mind can gain
raw insights into You.

Lord, touch me anew,
refresh Your spirit in me
freshly imprint on my heart
why it is, I love Thee!

O God; and renew
a right spirit within me.”

Good Morning Spring ~

Good morning Spring,
I’m so glad you’re here
with the sweet melodies
you sing into my ear.

I am so thankful,
for your sunny rays
for the fragrant blooms
you drift along my way.

Good morning Spring,
I have missed you so
thank you for easing
winter’s every woe.

Thank you for leaving,
a carpet of warmness
for letting me soak up
your peaceful calmness.

Good morning Spring,
I’m so glad God sent you
for you are the season
He uses to renew!

New Beginnings ~

A fresh start,
new beginnings too
not just for today . . .
but, all year through.

If you let Jesus,
be your resolution
He will bring to you
a glorious restoration.

Putting behind the past,
pressing into the goal
believing in God with . . .
your whole heart and soul.

Letting Him change you,
from the inside out . . .
pushing back your fears
giving Him your doubt.

A fresh new start,
is waiting for you . . .
oh, the mighty things
Jesus wants to do!

Steadfast ~

Lord, keep me steadfast,
in my pursuit to abide in Thee
keep my heart faithful
so Your love will dwell in me.

Lord, keep me patient,
in my pursuit to walk like Thee
keep my feet established
so Your Spirit can lead me.

Lord, keep me faithful,
in my pursuit to become like Thee
keep my branches trimmed
so Your fruit will mature in me.

Lord, keep me loyal,
in my pursuit to follow after Thee
keep my mind established
so Your peace will be seen in me.

Lord, keep me on the vine,
in my pursuit to grow in Thee
keep my life devoted
so Your joy will rise up in me.

Lord, keep me steadfast,
in my pursuit to abide in Thee
create in me a new heart
so Your Spirit can live inside me!
