Mercy

Whence cometh Mercy, poured on all she meets, When Judgment stands against her sweet travail. Whence cometh she whose strength is seen as weak, To triumph yet, and through that power prevail. For Mercy triumphs over Judgment Each and every time her grace is called; And Mercy triumphs over Judgment For at the feet of […]

untitled

To dream a dream, to hear You speak, To trust Your Holy Spirit in my life; To shape, remake; to burn, to break, While Your word cleanses me with holy fire… Conflict and doubt, within, without Have wrecked my heart and left me waiting still. I can but stand here in Your hand, Trusting You […]

Lion Led

Softly treading steps beside me, In the darkness of my way, Reassure my fearful, anxious Heart that I am not astray. He whose breath still warms and guides me Never lets me walk alone. Even when I’m filled with weakness, Judah’s Lion leads me on. In this darkness, I am learning How to trust implicitly. […]

War

It’s time to take the hammer to the anvil. It’s time to put the metal in to forge. The fires are burning hotter than they’ve ever been, And war’s on the horizon with a surge. Your people, Lord, Your people need Messiah— Who came already saving us from sin. But now the whole world’s closing […]

Holiness

According to the words of Christ, in letters printed red, We cannot call Him, “Lord,â€? unless we do what He has said. So heed His warning, build on rock, and stand strong in the flood, Or choose your own way and you’ll find you’ve built on sand instead. If we will take the narrow road […]

Within Your Love

Pressing in to You I find A peace I can’t explain. Although I’ll never understand, Your rest surrounds me With a sense of absolute trust. The turmoil within and without Slips away to a distant place, And a solidness settles me down… Words just aren’t enough to describe You circumambient to me. I feel secure […]

Wasted

I’m here again, Lord, Wasted at your feet, Spent in grief and sorrow, Still clinging… Somehow. I feel like the woman With the issue of blood… Years deep in this insanity Some would call my life. I need you desperately! This healing thing takes forever. Though I reach for you, Though I touch your robe, […]
