LEAD ME
Jesus, lead me
Where I do not see
So that I may be
More than just me
But become we

4 A.M. WEDNESDAY MORNING
Come on into the light
Where all is ever bright,
Where the starkness
Of the darkness
Has been overcome
And the total sum
Of all we have done
Erased by God’s Son.
The Son has risen.
We are forgiven
If we believe
And receive
God’s grace,
Our place
In forever,
It will never
Be in doubt
As we shout
Jesus Christ is Lord,
God’s Son is adored,
He is the light
Making us right
In the Father’s sight.
We no longer fight
In the dark of night,
It is through His might
We see the truth of all
Having heard His call.

THE LETTER
I’m feeling better.
Read your letter,
Your year in review
Continues to renew,
Not your fears,
Not your years.
But your tears
Like a river flow
And the weeds still grow.
What is left to reap?
That is why you weep.
And you shared your hope,
How it is you cope
With the daily news,
Differing views.
You shared a voice
And you made a choice.
It said, “My son
There is Good News,
Jesus, My Son.
The battle now won,
Death overcome.
What the world will bring
You shall never sing.
I have your hand.
Walk through the sand
And I will carry you
Through all you will do.
You are not of this world.
You are forever Mine.
Forever through time,
Yes, that is Our rhyme.

The Rewritten Letter
Stupid Love
Like a glove
It covers your fingers,
All that lingers.
The burst bubble
From your perceived trouble.
Hard to move forward
Without God’s Word,
Though as we live our day
May we constantly pray
To the Lord Jesus,
Who died to save us
Will always be there
When we are in his care

MY HEART
My heart was stirred
Reading God’s word
My burden lifted
As I was gifted
By God’s grace
His embrace
I saw the light
Ending the fight
As I continued to read
I was reminded my need
Was not of man
Nothing he can
Can ever save my soul
As I run toward the goal
I will follow what God has planned
As I forever understand
It is only the Son of Man
Who fulfilled God’s Holy plan
Dying for our sin
Whatever it has been
Then rising from the grave
It is Jesus who does save
Our hearts so torn
As we are reborn
Believe
Professing
Receiving
Blessing

IN THOSE TIMES
In the times of trouble,
Those moments of struggle,
When you need to snuggle,
As you feel life’s harms
Then raise up your arms
And...
