MY CHILD, I FORGIVE YOU




Lord I am your Child
You put me in the Palm of your hand
And you go before the heart of God the Father
With all my darkest longings and confessions.

The darkness I confess
Is shed in the presence of your light,
And relinquishes my stain!
As I confess, I am cleansed
By your precious blood
Once again.

And I will partake in the Communion meal,
At peace and reconciled with the Father
And His unending Love and Mercy.



WHY DO WE CRUCIFY HIM AGAIN?


I say something rude
to someone who’s lost,
And I’ve ruinded my witness,
But they will pay the cost.
So I nail in the nails.

Can anyone see the Lord through me,
Or do they simply see my sins?
Am I living the life Christ wants me to,
Am I living the life of man?
So I plunge in the spear.

And when I fail to pray,
and my conversations with Him fade,
Does He patiently wait for my call,
Though it causes Him pain?
And I place the thorns upon His brow.

I lead a life of double standards,
One day good, the next one bad.
Can He quietly stand by
When He sees all I could have had?
And I ridicule my Lord once again.

For you see,
Each time we turn our backs,
and return to the world of sin,
It is then that you and I,
We crucify Him again.


I GIVE YOU




I give you the sun,
and I give you the rain.
I give you the air to breathe,
and I give you the grain.

I give you the mountains to climb,
and I give you the sea to explore.
I give you words to rhyme,
and I give you lions that roar.

But you never look up once to thank me
for the blessings I have given thee.
And you’re always much too busy to think of me,
yet I love you and will wait for you,
pray you’ll come to see.

I give you the birds that fly,
and I give you the earth and sky.
I give flowers that bloom,
and I give you the stars and moon.

But you never look up once to thank me
for the blessings I have given thee.
And you’re always much too busy think of me,
yet I love you and will wait for you,
pray you’ll come to see.

sweet is his love, tender his care and deep is his love...

ANOTHER DAY


Another day is dawning
Another day’s begun
Another day to turn to God
and pray, “Thy will be done”
A day to slay doubt’s dragon,
To know within your soul
That as you give yourself to Him
He’ll bless and make you whole.
A day to live with purpose
A day to show you care
When others turn to you distraught
Confused or in despair
A day to share God’s blessings
In quiet countless ways
That touch the heart with hope and joy
And brighten cloudy days
A day for sweet rejoicing
For gratitude and praise
Because His love enfolds you
Both now, and all your days.



A WALK WITH GOD


The gentleness of Bethlehem
And the horror of Calvary
Emanated from God’s love
For all of His creation
But especially humanity.
The gift of His Spirit
Is the flow of Love
Into our hearts
For God is thee Lover.
In return we must
Be open to Jesus,
Trust in Him,
And give Him space
In our hearts
For the gift He bestows.
For that is what life
Is all about: A walk with God
In and as part of Creation
On our way to where
The Word reigns forever.
Thus, we must be centred upon
Jesus, that is, God centred,
And in all things centred
Upon love For God is Love.

LIFE OF JESUS


From the mystery of a Trinity
A promised coming to save mankind
Becoming man through a Virgin’s purity
An exacting problem for the mind

For thirty years experiencing obscurity
Preparing humbly for an oblation
To free the souls of humanity
From the depths of sin and perdition

Later preaching and working miracles
Sowing virtue like springtime seed
Endorsing the old laws ancient articles
And preaching love as the new laws creed

In those three years building a body
Overseen by a man of the sea
Then finally rejected as a nobody
He accepted death on a Calvary tree

Alongside thieves He slowly died there
Confirming death by an open heart
Releasing streams of saving care
Which set his followers from others apart

In another’s tomb they finally laid Him
But within a few days He arose again
The conqueror of death and destructive sin
Who from within The Trinity now does reign

THE PATH OF HOPE



The path to Hope, is not far away
Look around, don’t go astray

Life is a journey, Life is short
Life is amazing, Life is comfort

Take my hand and walk with me
Life gives us clues, not the map you see

Don’t wait for better things to come
When Faith is Hope, Hope becomes

Enjoy what life brings your way
Live it now, every single day

Don’t sit and wonder, what might have been
For this alone, is a sinful sin

Take a chance on what tomorrow may be
Open your eyes and you will see

The gift of life is for me and you
Pick it up, this Hope is too

Be good to each other as each other can be
Love one another and you will see

Hope is there leading the way
To greener pastures is what they say
Hope is there, do you hear it call

It is for one, it is for all
Bad times will be a thing of the past
The Hope of salvation is there to last

Love one another as Jesus told us to do
Forgive one another as He forgives you

HAIL REDEEMER


Hail Redeemer of our race
The Paschal Lamb of Love
Born as man to Mary pure
As Angels sang above
On Calvary You saved our souls
By the shedding of Your blood
Accepting death by Father’s will
As you hung there on the wood
Hail redeemer of our race
The Paschal Lamb of Love
Intensify our love for You
As through life we move
And when our mortal life is o’er
May we to Your Heart wend
Adherents of Your Holy Cross
True lovers to the end!

O!! MAN, TURN BACK TO GOD


For He is The Creator of what’s good
Who because of sin offered Jesus
His beloved Son to save our kind

Oh throughout world history
                                    Others were placed on pedestals
But only Jesus can bring us joy
Protecting us from cancerous sin

And as The Spirit via His followers
Wrote the New Testament of His word
Our Lord established His Church upon
Peter to ensure His truth would be heard.


IN YOUR ARMS DADDY


Be still God’s dearest child
You are safe in the arms of Jesus
He is holding you close on His lap
He opens His hand asking you to place
all your cares and worries in His palms
Place all your beloved ones in His palms
He will take care of them
He knows your heart better than yourself baby
He is holding your head close to His chest and
asking you to be happy and confident in the Lord
You are very valuable and precious in His eyes
He is ready to listen to you every second
And unlike others He will understand
your pains and tears the way you feel it
What more do you need than His love
He will give you all you need
All praises to our Sweetest Jesus
All Praises to our most loving Heavenly Father
