ANGUISH TO PEACE

Beset and bewildered
Hurting deep inside
Prayers filled with tears
Anguish rolling in like the tide

Prayers with no words
Letting the tears speak for me
Begging my Precious Saviour
To just hold me

I don’t understand
What have I done
Why does despair lay hold of me
At times I am undone

Crying out, Abba, Father
What more must I do
What will lift me up
How will I get through

Slowly the tears subside
A gentle peace fills my soul
I take hold of His nail scarred hand
And He lifts me from the dark hole

His peace washes over me
My tear stained face dries
He has heard my prayers
Sent higher than the eagle flies

He gives me peace enough
To sleep this night
When I awake again
I will seek Him with the morning light

WONDERFUL LOVE

Your wonderful love
Set this sinner free
Coming from heaven above
You died for me

Your grace and mercy
Poured out on the cross
Washing over me
You did not count it loss

You forgave my sin
Turning scarlet to white
Making me clean within
Leading me from the night

How wonderful my Saviour’s love
That fills my soul
Overflowing from heaven above
That heals and makes me whole

ON THE RIGHT TRACK

You know you are on the right track
When the devil gets on your back
No matter how much time you put aside
Your efforts he will deride

When you take the time to pray
he always puts something in your way
Whether it is thoughts or another
We need to cry out to our Abba Father

We need to stick to the narrow path
We need to stop and work out the math
Because if we don’t listen to our heavenly Father
What will happen to “love one another?”

What will happen to “bear each other’s burdens?”
The world is already full of those who are “hurtin”
Our relationships with one another
Would become a burden to suffer

But take heart in the fact
That the devil chooses to attack
Because Jesus suffered too
All for love of me and you

We need to let His love overwhelm us
We need to put our faith solely in Jesus
Then no matter how hard the devil attacks
We know Jesus always has our backs
