Chapter One

Colossians Chapter 3 Verse 16

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord

He Came To the Earth

He came to the earth
To save me
A spiritual birth
He gave me
I will go forward
And boldly
To do as my Lord
Has told me


In the Silence

In the silence I find
joy visiting like a
light in the dark
reaching out with
compassionate
hands to let me know
I'm loved.


God's Garden

We are all plants
in God's great garden
His knowledge
is our soil

With it
We can live forever

Without it
We wilt and die

Proverbs Chapter 4 Verses 20, 21, and 22

(20) My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. (21) let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. (22) For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

At this alter

I will pray
Till all my troubles
Go away

The tears will fall
And my heart will get
A touch from God
Inside of it

No I'll not leave
With burdens inside
I just won't go
Till I'm revived

Renewed in the spirit
Made whole again
No I won't leave
Till Christ says when

I'll stay and pray
Till this man's complete
I won't back down
There is no retreat

I'm here for a touch
From my best friend
And that touch will come
And I will mend


I Rise

I rise
and find
myself marveling
at the change
that's taken
place
in my
life.

There's a sense of harmony
coming from within.
Almost like breathing from
the heart.
And lively excitements are
surging through my being.

God is with me.
And everything's alright.


There's Power in the Word

There's power in the word
The living word of God
Just waiting to explode
To quicken someone's heart

To guide a new creature
Into a holy life
With our God and Teacher
The Lord Jesus Christ

Romans Chapter 10 Verses 8, 9, and 10

(8) But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith,...
