Tapestry Of Words
Weary of this sinful world
I seek for my heart what is best
The inspired word of scripture
Is where my soul finds rest
I take comfort in Your promises
The Gospel speaks out of what is so true
By Your sacrifice sweet Jesus
The only way to the Father is through You
In this tapestry of words, I see the beauty
Woven through this message from God above
My thirsty soul is quenched
Drinking in this letter of love.

Grace and Mercy
For so long a prisoner to sin
Bound as if wrapped in chain
Doomed if not for a Savior
Who took on my sins stain
Who gave his life so I could live
Once an enemy now Gods child
Awed by His grace and mercy
Called, forgiven, reconciled

Peaceful Sleep
As I tossed and turned
I thought about my day
I could not close my eyes and sleep
I felt I needed to pray
I saw passed opportunity
When I held back what I should say
I could not close my eyes and sleep
I knew I needed to pray
I didn’t call or reach out
To some who might have needed me today
I could not close my eyes to sleep
This is what I started to pray
Lord teach me obedience
May I seek Your will in all I do
May I search only Your word for direction
My every step follow You
Waking in the morning light
I had such a sense my Lord was there
Realizing the peace so overwhelming
He caused me to sleep in the midst of my prayer.
