Tuesday, November 3, 2009 - To You, Oh Lord

Posted in Poetry

I lift up this day to You, Oh Lord,
Let it be pleasing in Your sight,
Guide me through each and every step,
Help me to do what is right.

I lift up this hour to You, Oh Lord,
Let it bring glory to You,
Show me Your clear direction
In everything I do.

I lift up this minute to You, Oh Lord,
Let Your Name be always praised,
Lead me to those who need You most,
Take hold of all my days.

I lift up my life to You, Oh Lord,
Let me live only for You,
Make me who You want me to be,
Until my days are through.

Wednesday, September 9, 2009 - A Good School Day

Posted in Poetry

We had a good day in school today,
Knowledge and curiosity led the way,
Math facts were learned and problems corrected,
History facts seemed to be connected,
Science experiments didn’t explode,
In reading we seemed to have learned the code.


We had a good day in school today,
But above all the books and learning going on,
Our greatest knowledge from which we have drawn,
Comes not from the assignments or the goals that are met,
But from following the Golden Rule and to never forget,
All that we need to know we can find in one place,
In the Word of God and His saving grace.

Monday, June 29, 2009 - Summer

Posted in Poetry

The summer sun hugs the earth,
As its rays kiss the morning sky,
An exhale of warmth fills the air,
And welcomes the day with a sigh.

Gentle waves of green whisper hello,
Calling out to the dancing flowers,
Sweet perfume paints the breeze,
Lingering fragrance lasting for hours.

A brand new day God creates
A season for rejoicing in wonder,
The magnificent memories in my heart,
The joys only found in summer.

Hours pass as time goes by,
Washing away yesterday.
Tomorrow answers in reply
A new beginning in today.

Friday, April 10, 2009 - Rejoice

Posted in Poetry

Rejoice, Rejoice!
Sing with one voice
The gates of Heaven are open
The price has been paid,
The sacrifice made,
Salvation for all men.
Shout Glory, Shout Glory,
The ultimate love story,
Death has lost its hold.
Freedom for all,
Who heed His call,
Life for young and old.
Praise Him, Praise Him,
He took on our sin
And bore it on the Cross,
He conquered the grave
That all would be saved
And not one of us would be lost.

Thursday, March 26, 2009 - Manuscript

Posted in Poetry

Tappety tap, Clickety click
Across the keyboard fingers flick
Letters, words, sentences flow,
Paragraphs begin to grow.
Pages fill with artistry,
Imagination running free,
Hummedy hum, zippety zip
Onto the paper the manuscript.
Originality in your grasp, 
A long time dream comes true at last.

Wednesday, March 11, 2009 - A Song of Thanks

Posted in Poetry

Thank you God, for all you give,
A place to sit, a place to live,
Legs to walk and arms to hold,
Love to give to young and old.

Thank you Father, for the air I breathe,
A chance to give, a chance to receive,
People to know and places to see,
And everything you’ve given me.

Thank you Jesus, for the cross,
You suffered on for the lost,
Binding up all my sin,
And making me whole again.

Thank you Lord, for the price you paid,
That saved me from the endless grave,
And opened up the heavenly gates,
Where your precious arms await.

Thank you Holy Spirit, for leading me,
For guiding my soul and making me free,
And may all my life I sing your praise,
For giving me all these brand new days.

Monday, December 15, 2008 - New Day

Posted in Poetry

Dewdrop kisses across the grass
Glisten silver before my eyes
Golden sunshine reaches its hand
To touch the morning skies.
Yesterday is washed away
Night has gone to sleep
A brand new start is given to me
With the promises it keeps.
The day calls out with whispered hope
No shackles to bind my steps
I trust in Him to guide my way
Through a day with no regrets.
May His Glory shine as bright as He
Through my every word and deed
May I share His Love with all I meet
And His honor be guaranteed.
No stormy skies can move my path
No thunder can cause me fear
His arms hold me close to Him
For He is always near.

Thursday, November 27, 2008 - Thankful

Posted in Poetry

I am thankful for the Son that shines,
Upon my everyday,
Grateful for His Love Divine,
That washed my sin away.
I am thankful for the trials that come,
To strengthen who I am,
Grateful that He is the One,
The sacrificial Lamb.
I am thankful for the air I breathe
And every step I take
Grateful  that He’s chosen me
And died for my soul’s sake.
I am thankful that He loved me so,
Though worthy I am not
Grateful  that I truly know
My life He has bought.
His blessings I am thankful for
His joy fills my day
Grateful that He loves me more,
Than any words can say.

Thursday, November 6, 2008 - Draw Near

Posted in Poetry

Simply love

From above

With no fear

He draws near

Wounded hearts

Life thrown darts

Grace and Peace

Within your reach

Broken dreams

Silent screams

Heard by One

His only Son

Lonely mind

Long lost time

Broken soul

He makes you whole

Healing power

Every hour

He is here

The Way is clear

Reach for Him

Bring Him in

Free your life

From its strife

He waits for you

To make you new

To take your pain

Just call His Name

He is Love

From above

Have no fear

And draw Him near.
