Under the rainbow where the children all play, Safe in Gods love and mercy all day. Singing so happy no worries or cares, Enjoying their life so thankful their there. Holding hands with each other with smiles on their face, Knowing in their hearts nothing could ever take Gods place. Looking up at the beautiful colors, loving every one, Grateful in their hearts for what their Father has done. Always taking the time to stop and to see, All the beautiful things saying God made this for me. Lots of laughter and giggles and never no doubts, Trusting God to take care of things they know nothing about. What a wonderful blessing God wants us to see, Through the eyes of the children how happy we can be. Under the rainbow I want to go everyday, And learn from the children as I watch them run and play.
In The Garden
We met in the garden on a beautiful day, And I sat and I listened to everything He had to say. The sun was shining and the sky was so blue, He smiled and softly said lets talk about you. Lord I said there is so much that I want to know, Why is it when I pray sometimes your answers are so slow. He was quiet for awhile then He finally answered me, If I answer your prayers to fast you’d miss the things I want you to see. Lord there are so many things in life that I don’t understand, Can you please tell me if everything that happens is a part of your plan. I watched as He answered with a tear in His eye, My child there is so many things, in this world that makes me cry. There is heartache and pain that everyone goes through, But never forget how much I love you, and I am always with you. You ask if everything is a part of my plan, I gave you the freedom to choose when I created man. Lord I know I have failed you in so many ways, How can you still love me even more everyday. He put His loving arms around me and He said look back and see, All your sins were forgiven on an old rugged tree. We got up and we walked as He held on to my hand, And I knew in my heart we’d meet in the garden again.
His Hands Not Mine
His hands not mine touch so many today, Changing lives giving hope in every way. His hands not mine is what everyone needs, My hands are blessed to be able to just plant some seeds. His hands not mine go places I never can, For He created everyone and He understands. His hands not mine have done so many things, Filled with love and compassion for the trials that life brings. His hands not mine are always strong never weak, Always ready to reach out giving us the peace that we seek. His hands not mine answers so many prayers, Reassuring us were never alone for He’s always there. His hands not mine are the ones everyone reaches for, When we are lost in life’s storms, knowing He will lead us to the shore. His hands not mine holds all our worries and cares, Humbly I place my hands in His, forever grateful that their there.
I'm Building My Home
I don’t have much Lord but I’m starting today, And I’m going to need your help in everyway I’m building my home on your promises and love, Could you please send me the materials I need from above. I know I have tried to build my home many times, With all the wrong things Lord leaving what I needed behind. And every time it fell I would try again, Feeling hopeless and wondering where do I even begin. Today I feel so blessed because I am starting with you, Knowing that you will show me what I need to do. This time my home after the storms will still stand, For it will be built on solid rock instead of sinking sand. No more will I have to worry or be afraid it will fall, Because I will always have you and on your name I can call. My home will have comfort and peace I’ve never known, Things I never had when I tried to build it alone. It will be filled with so much love and faith, and trust, Lord I’m so excited I’ve never had a home built by us. I’m building my home with a brand new plan, Every part of it will be finished by the Masters strong hand.
Faith
Faith is a gift from God up above, From it comes Gods blessings and our works of love. Faith will stand strong when doubt pounds at our door, It gives us the strength to keep going and not answer any more. When life is throwing stones we let them fall at our feet, For we have Gods gift of faith and it is ours to keep. Faith lets hope bloom in our lives everyday, Giving us so many reasons to thank God as we pray. Faith takes us so many places that we’ve never been, As it continues to grow we move farther from sin. Faith keeps looking up and always forward to tomorrow, Never looking back dwelling on our failures and sorrows. Faith what a blessing that God gave us to share, With everyone that He loves showing them that He cares. Faith that keeps us going when we sometimes want to quit, Showing us that with God we can always make it.
I Heard His Voice
The waves were washing over me, At times I felt like I could not see. I’ll never make it through this trial, When I heard a voice say just rest in me awhile. I tried to look up to no avail, This storm was now sending down pounding hail. The pain it left was so very strong, I must of done something very wrong. Why else would I be suffering so, And I heard a voice say just let it go. Open your eyes so that you can see, That I am here give it all to me. This time I felt His loving grace, And the sun begin shining on my face. I stumbled and fell down on my knees, Asking God to help me please. I looked up and seen my life boat there, I climbed aboard with all my cares. I was so grateful I could finally see, I heard His voice my Father was waiting for me.
So Much Joy
It’s raining all around me but I can feel the Son shine, For God has put so much joy in this heart of mine. I can hear the thunder and see the lighting all around me, But I’m so grateful to my Father for all the beauty I can see. I have had trials and I know there is more yet to come, And with thankfulness I can say look what my Father has done. I have walked down rocky roads that never seemed to end, But I had laughter along the way for God was with me again. There has been a lot of dark clouds and times when tears filled my eyes, And my Father sent me a rainbow what a wonderful surprise. Sometimes I get afraid and I worry way to much, That’s when peace feels my soul as I feel my Father’s touch. Like the little sparrow God takes care of as he sings his beautiful song, I am so grateful for all my blessings and with joy I sing along.
Point Me To The Cross
God point me to the cross everything I need is there, All your mercy and your grace, and your tender loving care. Please point me to the cross so I can lay my burdens down, For the cross is where I know true forgiveness can be found. Point me to the cross the only road I need to take, As you show me Lord please help me learn from all my past mistakes. Point me to the cross God and walk with me as I go, I feel so unworthy for my life you truly know. Point me to the cross Lord so my life can be renewed, For I know that’s where your Son was sacrificed, and suffered for me too. Point me to the cross where true forgiveness can be found, I know I’m covered by the blood Jesus shed, that fell upon the ground. God point me to the cross and down on bended knees, I want to give my life back to you for you gave this life to me. Point me to the cross for humbly I come today, Asking your forgiveness as I bow my head and pray. Point me to the cross Lord I’m so grateful I can go, Giving praises to my Savior for Jesus loves me this I know.
My Forget-Me- Nots
Down through my life there is so many I see, My beautiful Forget- Me- Nots that has truly blessed me. My heart over flows when I think of them, My special loved ones my family and friends. The bouquet just keeps growing and I never know, When God will add another one and its there time to go. Up in the heavens with their Father above, Safely at home so wanted and so loved. Leaving behind so many loving bouquets, Of beautiful Forget- Me- Nots in every way. Never will I forget them they will always bloom, In my heart that’s full of memories I have plenty of room. Sometimes I think of them with a smile or a tear, My beautiful Forget- Me- Nots that I hold so dear. I am so grateful to God in so many ways, For the ones that I love in His beautiful bouquet.
Always Asking
Always asking yes God that is me, For you are the only hope in my life I see. Always needing something from you, Because you are the one who knows what to do. Always questioning why so many trials, But you always show me they only last a short while. Always wanting my answers today, But you have shown me it doesn’t happen that way. Always worrying about things I can’t change, When I give it to you, you never complain. Always wondering which road to take, Knowing with you there are no mistakes. Always thinking what am I worth, And you let me know I have loved you from birth. Always trying to step into tomorrow, While you hold me back saving me from extra sorrows. Always I run to you all the time, Knowing you will take care of me and I will be fine. Always asking for you’re the one that I trust, My God my Father, the one who loves me so much.
Child of Mine
Child of mine made perfect in every way, Who struggles with life every day. Always worrying and asking why, With pain in your heart and tears in your eyes. Wondering where the next road will lead, Good or bad and how long will it be. Gently I take hold of your hand, Showing you your life is part of my plan. I feel you draw closer as you start to trust, No longer alone now it is us. One step forward one day at a time, So loved by your Father child of mine.
The Master's Garden
He picked the right spot in everyway, As He began to plant His perfect garden that day. There were so many things that would bloom there, He would tend it with all of His love and care. Every flower would be beautiful selected by Him, And He would water it with faith when He began. He knew they would all grow so differently, And their beauty would show for all to see. He made sure that the Son would shine every day, Helping His flowers to grow in there own special way. There was all different colors different kinds and blooms, For in the masters garden there was plenty of room. When the rain would come down from up above, It would shower His garden with mercy and love. And the Son would provide everything that they’d need, For the master with love had planted every seed. The master tends to His garden night and day, Knowing every flower has a place in His beautiful bouquet.
When God Made Me
When God dug down into the clay that day, He made me perfect in every way. When He was done and He took one look at me, His heart filled with love even the angels could see. This one might have some problems one of the angels said, He answered this is my child and they have nothing to dread. But I see so many things God that can go wrong, I will carry them when they need me until they are strong. They will fail you and at times be so full of fear, Its ok I will hold them they’ll know that I’m always here. There’s going to be times that they cry and want to give up, I’ll show them they can make it when life gets to tough. God are you sure, they’re not always going to follow your plans, Oh I’m positive just trust me I’ll give them the chance to try again. They are going to be so blessed with all your mercy and grace, This is my child and I’m their Father no one could ever take their place.
My Father Paid Alot For Me
Little lost child with no place to call home, Moving around feeling so all alone. Wondering at times would they have something to eat, Wearing old clothes needing shoes for their feet. With eyes that are sad they want to be loved, In the only way they know how talking to God up above. Trusting and believing that fairy tales can come true, Hoping in their heart that means for them too. Maybe things will get better and their lives will change, No more yelling or fighting, or hitting and pain. Growing up they get use to the way that they live, To young to realize God loves them and their His. Now an adult living out on their own, Having a place that they can always call home. A family who loves them and children to raise, Grateful to God giving Him all of the praise. Looking back sometimes with tears they finally see, With love they can say my Father paid a lot for me.
