Vanished
I was beaten down trying to rise
Felt my strength slipping away
My desire to go on, ebbing
I couldn’t find my way
The valley was too deep
The road far too long
In my desire to do good
I could only do wrong
All things seemed impossible
For I was trying on my own
Then my burden and worry vanished
When I laid them before the Throne.

The Staff I Lean On

Yes indeed I am a sojourner

Eyes on the cross, just passing through

Following in the footsteps of my Savior

To God be the glory in everything I do

His Spirit shall sustain me

Provide the comfort that I seek

His generous love will nurture me

Provide refuge when I am weak

Yes indeed I am a sojourner

Though the road be winding and long

The Gospel be the staff I lean on

God’s grace will keep me strong.

Rise With The Son

Look to the horizon

Where the rising sun appears

Turn your thoughts to Jesus

Who casts away all fears

For He is the great redeemer

Who bore upon himself your sins

Turn your thoughts to Jesus

When each new day begins
