I will…You are

I will love you
with all my heart
with all my mind
Your love is divine

I will walk with you
through valleys so low
through mountains of high
Your always my guide

I will hold you
in my darkest hour
in my brightest day
You’re the only way

A reflection of Psalm 77

Oh Father, hear my cry for you!
Aloud to you, for you hear my voice!
This day, my heart is heavy
Polluted with weighty desires
Lacking joy in my salvation!

Despair chokes my joy.
I’m thirsty, but refuse to drink
Has your steadfast love seized?
Will I remain in the Shadows?
Father, will I again breathe your grace?
Will you again drown me in your Light?
I crawl broken with a heavy heart!

Tonight, I will remember Your right Hand!

I will focus on the fountain of grace!
You are My God! My Rock, My Salvation!
Sacrifice of Your Son, the gift of full atonement
Father I am your Son, adopted by blood
Saved by Your Grace and Mercy, Father!
You are my God, the God of Jacob!
I remember your wonders!
Father you have been my Shepard!
Guiding me through trials
Through my own Sea, by your Strength
Lost in Trials, You are my compass
You have already carried my heavy heart!!

Change

A fresh rush of wind signaling change
Whispered secrets into my heart
The summer air went cold
My security faded with tears
Pride became a dark cocoon
And Despair quickly got old
A blinding Light shone bright
Sweet taste and a warm touch
Could this be the feeling of Love?
A Heavy storm far from over
Seasons continually bring change
Sovereignty rains from above
My heart obeys and grieves
Follow the Divine path ahead
Walk in joy and look forward
To the fresh new spring leaves

My Broken Ship

*To my sister, walk with Him!

Vanishing hope and weary regret
My heart a lost ship at sea
Drifting with a storm’s palm
Silence has fallen upon me

A weak vessel floating off
With little direction or joy
The Sails slump, I’m lost
My bearings remain coy

Tears break from the heavy sky
Thunder crackles in the angry air
Wind casts me off to darkness
My heart fading into despair

And Yet a Light pursues me
O Lord, shine down your light
May it burst through the heavens
In your sea of mercy shine bright

O Lord, you are my captain
My compass of direction and hope
To lead my heart out of despair
Help me bring the Cross into scope

Floating hope and growing joy
My Heart a Strong Ship at Sea
Sailing under the Lord’s palm
By His Love, Grace and Mercy
