God, you give me peace, when man
cannot.
When I am sad – lonely, bitter and afraid,
My only hope is in you.
My debt is paid.
When I am sad – lonely, bitter and afraid,
My only hope is in you.
My debt is paid.
And not the pleasures of
this earth.
Help me live by the Spirit, a new heart, a new birth.
The Holy Spirit in me – You are my worth.
I’ve sought approval and affirmation in all the wrong places.
With repeated mistakes leaving more empty spaces.
I long to be filled with something that lasts..
A something that is able to overcome ANY past.
I know your truths but sometimes turn away.
Living in denial, in selfishness and pride, I foolishly convince myself, “I can hide!”
But you are with me, wherever I go.
You never leave me, and you always know.
Your promises sustain me, your love is enough.
I don’t need anything, not money, not stuff.
For you are my portion, my giver of hope.
Satan wants to steal my joy, but in your strength I say “Nope!”
I love you forever, for all of my days.
I raise my voice and my hands, You have all of my praise.
You want me to love you with all my heart, mind, soul and strength.
My neighbor comes second, with a cheerful heart I give thanks.
You never disappoint me or fall short of expectations.
We win in the end, it’s in the book of Revelation.
My eternity is yours. In heaven I’ll be.
Where my Grandmother and Granddaddy came before me.
Their legacy is their gift - not destroyed by dust or moth.
The empty tomb, our risen Lord, all that was left?
Just a cloth!
