See Me
See you
Watching as you live
Walk like I’ve saved you
Live like we talk
See the vision given
Know that I will fill
All of those particulars
My promise gives
And your faith lives
See Me
As you face your trial
Hurts and pains come hunting
Sent by evil’s hand
Aimed to distract you
Know that My promise
Always arrives
At just the right moment
Don’t be surprised
Live like you are alive
Death is an aggressive hunter
Throwing fear around
I give life eternal
Fear is destroyed
Claim your joy
I will walk with you
Guiding your every step
Focus your intent
Act heaven bent
My promises always come true

Life in danger
Every day
Hidden things
The world holds sway
Reaching out
To deal with me
Jesus gives
His love for me
Righteousness bequeathed
A gift for me
I seek His face
Jesus knows me
Now I’m known
By heavenly host
God’s child
Lift a toast
Praise the Lord
For His precious gift
Saving me
To eternity
Grab the life
Courage gives
God is real
Jesus lives
Living in
This heart of mine
Jesus gives
This life is mine
Mine to serve
Mine to give
No longer a slave
I’m free to live

Troubles come
Friends arrive
Praying for relief
From troubles side
Patience
Wait
Relax
Christ is in control
Let your heart be
Confident
Free
Jesus loves you and me
Take this time
Hear Him speak
Reaching out
Christ is unique
Remember
Surrender
Survive
He is alive
Now you think
Of all the things
You should have done
Fear has not won
Your frailty shows
Let it go
Christ is here
He will guide you from wrong
Fortress
Defender
Enabler
All you will ever need
Spend this time with Jesus
Let Him change your heart
Making you courageous
Then real life starts

I look away
Not to see
The pain
Circling me
Feeling fear’s
Deathly grasp
Angst in me
About what will be
Time, time
Slowly ticks
Yet the years
Speed swiftly by
Hanging out
With fears fold
All the folks
That I can see
We’ve prepared
Readied souls
Humanity howls
I can’t let go
And the day
Consumes my way
Standing still
I’m not in control
So many thoughts
Hope’s revived
His hand on me
I’m new and alive

LOVE TO CAROL ON VALENTINE’S DAY 2005
Today is special
Recognizing you

The way you bless us
Caring for each of us
So many years
As though a day
A loving life
By all you do and say
I love you
With all my heart
Thank you for loving me
Today is just a point in time
Reminding us
How much you do
And all you mean to us
Bless you as you heal
We pray for your strength
Your bravery is real

All of you
In good times and tough
I love you

Thirty six of them

Father I have great need
Every single day
Sometimes I don’t even know
Until trouble comes my way
Hidden in the folds of life
Need is always here
Give me strength to serve you
I hold Your presence dear
Come and show me pathways
That protect and provide
Lord I need your presence
As I face this day’s surprise
I know You are loving
I trust You are here
Life and life’s illusions
Are not friends of mine
Thank you for your guidance
And all the gifts you give
Life is worth the struggle
As long as You are near

Don’t forget the King is here
Jesus lives in you
He is real and worthy
Praise Him for His love
His yearning after you
God is good
Let Him have all of you
Every step we take
A choice rears its head
“Will I trust the Lord?”
Or walk in fear
Not knowing love
Or how much what I do
Is important to the Lord
He knows all I do
I will talk with Him each day
Letting Him speak to me
About the way I live
And what I am to give
Receiving strength to live
Enabling me to give
Jesus is God’s everything
Praise the Lord
Praise Him high and low
I give Him my life
He is Lord of all
Guide me and be
All of life for me

Hurt and pain go away
I cry as others
I want my way
So I rail at inanimate things
Claiming life things
Jesus uses failure
To help us see
How evil things cannot please
How much God cares
For you and for me
Abundance is in the eye of the beholder
What I see as joy
Others see as pain
I wear Godly glasses
Going to Christ to see
Unbelievers all around us
Foolish in their claims
All beliefs recycle
Claiming God can’t win
And humanity is in control
That kind of thought brings laughter
To evils casting call
Man is so conceited
He thinks he can win
When everyday brings failure again
Evil seeks to blind us
Convince us we have no worth
That nothing cares and we don’t count
Get all that you can grab
Life ends on a slab
Jesus says you are special
He died just for you
The Lord of all is waiting
For you to stop and call
Lord I need help today
CC 1/12/05
I see you
All around me
When I look at me
You become real
Wonder, awe and grace
Throughout the world I live
I don’t understand so much
But I know you live
I am so complex
Yet You are so divine
Loving me complete
Even with my breakable feet
What a plan for me
I knew it in my heart
Every day defeat
Robs the life I trod
I accept the life You give
I value what You do
Jesus gives me life
Until I stand with You
