You Dare You Dare Above my head you fly Chariot wheels to rip apart the sky To bless my life so much As I approach Glory’s Throne Seeking Your love to trust But you do Daring the impossibles to do My imagination’s limits you refuse And Morning’s promise of new Mercies Every day to endlessly, infinitely renew
Simplicity Just You and me Sky overhead That's all I see Pleasant to exist Like this Thank You For this treasure At your right hand Your eternal pleasures! Praise You Lord Jesus Praise You!!!
A Golden Cross
A cold day arose
Over a cross of gold
Never was one so sublime
Throughout all
knowledge of our history & time
But for only this one slice of a day
Would be it allowed to hold full sway
Over the Son of God
Even through all our jeers & our taunts
His holy purpose we could never daunt
Bearing all our hatred,
Toward heaven he raised
A face so bloodied & so gaunt
But even then,
Was our Lord able back to win
from the depths of dark satan's clutches
The glory of our precious souls
So that at last & in the end
We an infinity could live within
The brightness of His Holy Glow!
To Be Known It feels like I was Made by You To live with You By You to be known Through & through To exist with You Praise You, Lord God Praise You Thank You for Taking the time Upon Your earth To trod Thank You For my existence For the joy of being Able to listen As You speak Or are quiet Thank You for still Wanting us Watching Even at times As we are so corrupt So Thank You For making us To live so close To You Gathering us in As our hearts You try to win And make us Your very own!
No Other Place No other place Except your shining face To run to When the walls They collapse, they fall One day you're Standing tall The next Laying face down In the dust Amidst the rush Of a world gone insane Unceasingly creating its own pain For us Of all this godlessness There will be no gain So for you Before it's too late Make the Living God Your strong portal And be allowed To start eternity Through Heaven's Shining gates!
Huddling We huddle in buildings On one particular day To throw a few coins up onto a stage Mumbling, Sing just one more song Hoping it won't last Too long Is that really The picture We want to paint Of today's struggling Church Do we go just in case We might need God to Help us out of A sudden lurch? What's happened To the passion, Devotion Of a first century It grew rapidly, Even exponentially Ah, to see That increase today!! But It takes courage Putting God first Before everyone, Everything So Let our songs ring Out loud the words sing Into our daily actions Out onto The busy, chaotic streets As other souls we meet In our hearts Do not let Christ's examples Abate As more & more His Holy Spirit We come to live out & to joyfully imitate!!
