Raindrops

Fb-Button

 

Raindrops

Each drop, each drop

A creation of God

So many, so many

Together they applaud

 

To think, to think

That He knows each drop

Each petal of rain

He sees from atop

 

And so are His thoughts

So many, so vast

So are His thoughts

Present, future, past

 

Eternal is He

And all-knowing too

Knowing all about me

And every detail of you

 

Omniscient, omnipotent

Incredible indeed

Try to imagine

But I can’t, and I plead

 

That my thoughts be closer

To Yours in every way

That my words be closer

To Yours in all I say

 

He knows me so well

And the raindrops too

Dripping and dropping

They sing for Him true

 

Let us like the multitude

Of raindrops sing

Let us like the raindrops

Proclaim our King

Spirit in the Spring

Fb-Button

 Spring

Blissfully the breeze
Dances through my hair
The smell of flowers
Fills the warm air

Leaves do sway
And sunshine streams
A spring day unfolds
As in radiant dreams

Such a gift from God
To see this Spring day
To experience the beauty
Of the world at play

The winter can be
Bitter and cold
Enthusiasm dwindles
Visions grow old

But then a taste
Of Spring appears
To renew our hopes
And allay our fears

Sweeter Spring is
Because winter came first
Water is sweeter
When in parched thirst

So too is salvation
When this we embrace
Sweet and triumphant
After all we did face

The contrast of Spring
With Winter before
Enhances its beauty
Yes, all the more

Spiritual birth glories
Beyond radiant Spring
Communing with God
Of this we do sing

As the breezes caress
And the sunlight warms
We celebrate God’s gifts
In all their forms

Most beautiful of all
Is the gift of His Son
The gift of true Life
For us He has won

Sing now the bird
And dance now the flower
I join God’s creation
Praising His power

So blessed am I
And you, sister and brother
Let’s praise our God
And uplift one another

Let Spring remind us
Of God’s Light and Love
Fixing our eyes on Him
And on His throne Above

Treasure

Fb-Button

 Life Treasure

To discover the purpose
Unique to me
Is to discover treasure
I did not see

This purpose was here
Before my birth
God foreknew it
Before creating earth

Humbling that we
Carry a purpose each
Some to build
And some to teach

Others do write
And some do sing
Value to God’s Kingdom
We are meant to bring

When asking my Lord
What it is I should do
He said, “Use your talents
Building my Kingdom True”

Melt away at once
The distractions did
And I saw that calling
Which in my heart He hid

The how and the where
I need not know
Take a step forward
The next step He will show

Call unto the Lord
And discover purpose deep
Therein are energized days
And sweet restful sleep

Seek first His Kingdom
All your needs He provides
He comforts, He inspires
He instructs, He guides

So content I feel now
So joyful, so free
Striving to be all
God created me to be
