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 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!
Living Stones
Living stones are we all
Even if the hard exteriors fall
The inner fires remain
By Infinity's word sustained
Proving over and over again
God's beauty, His love's power
Is not given in vain
Each believer in Christ
A living stone
In a new kingdom
On the rise
Headed toward the purity
Found only in God's eyes
& His Eternal Celestial Skies!
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!
