I feel in this post to glorify my Father God and my Lord Jesus, the Word of God, through poems and songs that I have been brought to write since I have been born again of God's Holy Spirit. Some may have been shared in previous posts, but these are what are on my heart now to share. They are a variety of verses through which I spoke to the Lord, and also through which I have felt that the Lord spoke to me in certain appropriate situations, as I work out my salvation and learn God's ways through the teaching of the Word spoken to me daily by the Holy Spirit.
If You wasn't with me
Lord if You wasn't with me I couldn't go on
for I know in this world I just do not belong
and it's only the love that You have for all men
that I feel working through me again and again
that is keeping this soul on an even keel
and combating everything else I might feel
Weep no more child (song about repentance)
Weep no more child, I have bought your peace
I have suffered in your place
all the blows the world has dealt you
I have taken on my face
Turn around turn around and I will forgive
turn around, turn around, turn around child and live
For I take no pleasure in the death of a soul
turn around, seek my face child, and I'll make you whole
Strive no more child, I can bring release
I regained what you had lost
Righteousness was purchased for you
when they nailed me to that cross
Turn around turn around and I will forgive
turn around, turn around, turn around child and live
For I take no pleasure in the death of a soul
turn around, seek my face child, and I'll make you whole
Sin no more child, turn and look at me
see that I have paid the price
so that you could have salvation
I became the sacrifice
Turn around turn around and I will forgive
turn around, turn around, turn around child and live
For I take no pleasure in the death of a soul
turn around, seek my face child, and I'll make you whole
Somewhere (a prayer for others) -song
Somewhere someone's hurting Lord
somewhere someone's hurting
A wife has left her husband
and he's crying in despair
He doesn't know there's a comforter
he doesn't know You're there
Lord reach out and comfort him
send help from above
send help from the sanctuary
let the world see Your love
Somewhere someone's dying Lord
somewhere someone's dying
The doctor's shake their heads and say
'There's nothing can be done'
They've never seen a miracle
performed by God's own Son
Lord reach out and heal him
send help from above
send help from the sanctuary
let the world see Your love
Somewhere someone's crying Lord
somewhere someone's crying
Her tears are shed for all mankind
she knows the end is near
She doesn't know there's a perfect love
that casts out every fear
Lord reach out and love her
send help from above
send help from the sanctuary
let the world see Your love
Somewhere someone's waiting
somewhere someone's waiting
They've heard there's hope in Jesus Christ
the Name above them all
So they're waiting for their Lord's return
responding to Your call
Lord You've reached out to us
God sent help from above
He sent help from His sanctuary
He sent You - His perfect Love
If I didn't have You Lord (song)
If I didn't have You Lord, there'd be no point to life
for without You there's nothing - only sickness and strife
You was sent from the Father with a message of love
to show me the way Lord to my home high above
Oh once I was lonely and lost in the night
my life wasn't good Lord - no, nothing was right
You came with forgiveness for all I'd done wrong
now I offer my praise Lord with the words of this song
Oh Jesus my saviour, my wonderful King
You left Your great throne Lord and every good thing
You came in my likeness and took all the shame
so that I might be healed Lord by the power in Your Name
I know that there's nothing that I would desire
above Your Salvation though I walk through the fire
I know that You're with me every step of the way
The world lost a sinner when I met You that day
I could never describe the beauty of the place I was taken to in my near death experience. In one sentence I could say 'That was reality, my life on earth is the dream.' The extreme feeling of love, and the beauty is what we have to look forward to after life on earth as believers - nothing and nowhere on this earth compares to it.
