No other god
Can set you free
Listen as I speak
“I’m in love with you”

All your life
You’ve sought my look
All your life
You’ve prayed

Now I’m here
To say to you
I’m listening
I love you

Light is here
It will guide your path
Especially when it’s dark
And you think you’ve lost your way

My gentle hand
Is strong and kind
My nudge will guide you
On a path that leads to me

I’m a jealous God
I want your time
Seek my face
All the time

Know that I am here for you
I died for you
I forgive you
I love you

I feel the pain
The rain
The wind
A hurricane coming
It’s back again

How can I know
A way to free
The hurting hearts
That soon will be

What is there
To strengthen them
Jesus Christ is here
He is within

Takes us through
The brutal hurt
Carrying our future
It’s not disturbed

Knowing we can be
As good as we were
Reminding me or mortality
Life comes from above

All the fullness
All the fear
A hurricane nears
I feel the pain

Jesus is the answer
Whenever we’re doubt
Jesus is the key
To learn what life’s about

All I am and hope to be
Wrapped up in Christ
He’s set me free
This world is not my home

Clay Corvin 9/22/05

Humans standing by our hearts
Reaching out to see
Plans can often fall aside
Jesus walks with me

I’m surprised and mortified
Aghast is a better word
The Lord knows and sees the rush
The future is consuming me

I want to serve
To carry His crown
My simple plans obstruct
The freeway of His love

I set aside my pain and hurt
Sharing with those in need
I find the salve of loving
Heals the pain in me

God is good in everyway
We are only here a day
His plan for each one of us
Trust the Lord; obey

Clay Corvin 9/8/05

Homeless folks
Stripped of goods
Hands to God on high
Useful hearts
Unfettered and free
Jesus, use me

Homeless folks
Once were crowned
With all and lavish goods
Now the truth is plain to see
The world is a transient place
Jesus has a hold on me

Homeless folks
Filled with hope
Looking for the sight
Of heaven’s streets
Eternal trees
The place where we can see

Homeless folks
We serve God
He is Lord of all
What a blessing
To know His care
His strength carries me

Homeless folks
Stand with me
Each of us has a fear
Holding hands
We serve the Lord
Showing His loving care

Clay Corvin 9/05/05

So very difficult
To see ahead
What am I doing?
What has God said?
Promises filled
With sacrifice
Human life
Desperate with strife

Am I the one?
To work this plan
Did your vision connect?
With the one you said
Or should I fold
Strike my tent
Continue walking
As if heaven sent?

Who can know?
With certainty
That what they do
Is meant for them
Plans despaired
Life impaired
I want certainty
I can live without flair

Yet the march
Continues on
Time is prodding
I could be alone
Yet you are here
I know it is true
I want to know you
Before I come home

Clay Corvin 9/22/05

Tomorrow shines with promise
Today casts a darkened pall
Unable to see my way clear
I flail and discomfort all

Grabbing hold of what I see
Cutting my umbelical cord
The Lord of all has a hold on me
Faith is the security from fall

All is gone in the blink of an eye
Things we see destroyed
Things that last
Cannot comfort frenzied minds

Call me to your strong right side
Lord hold me as I plod
Remind me that the future is yours
Today will not destroy my ride

Father help me walk with you
To build a relationship each day
Reach into this heart so shaken
Comfort me in your arms

Joy comes upon the dawn
Riding with faith and grace
Give me strength to care and love
Today is the place I serve

Clay Corvin 9/15/05

Cold and lonely
I’m looking for you
To hold my hand
Remind me I’m grand
Help me

I’ve made so many bad choices
My rope is cut
No knot
No hope
Then you came by

It was your smile
I wanted one like that
My search began
I walked behind you
Just to see where you would go

I saw you speak to others
You helped them
Cross the street
Picking up their bags
Carrying them a few feet

I know you
You are a lot like me
And yet you appear to be free
What do you have?
I’m watching

My friend died
I hurt so bad
You shared with me
That you cared
How Jesus had set you free

I want to be free
Jesus save me
He did and now I’m not alone
I saw them in pain
I held out my hand

They joined me
We walked a way
Tomorrow I’ll be back
We can sit and talk
You count with me

One by one
We come into God’s house
It is always the same
People touch people
Community comes through you and me

Clay Corvin 8/23/05

Look at Me
Right where you sit
Sin can ravage you
Stop and renew

Listen now
I’m speaking
Guiding your precious heart
Don’t feel the loss
I value you

Move along
Sing My song
Your life is good
I have a plan for you

Bend your knee
Give Me your pain
I will fix your life
Open up your heart
Do the things that help you

Never think there is gain
When you cower in pain
Let me renew
The life I’ve given you

Joy is your choice
I offer it to you
Lay down evil toys
Come and live true

Jesus is the choice
He will cleanse your soul
Giving you the strength you need
To live and be whole

Clay Corvin 8/21/05

We will know Him when we meet Him
The unknowable One
No name can describe Him
He is the only ONE

Idols are very easy
They are something we want
Strength or peace or presence
We make them as we please

The Lord God is sovereign
We cannot make Him
Nor can we control Him
No one is like Him

Love is His nature
He really loves you and me
So that we would know
Truth died on a tree

That tree was our bondage
That act set us free
Believe and trust Jesus
And you will be free

Free from this moment
Free eternally
The ravages of this world
Will have to set you free

Claim the truth
That’s Jesus
Here to guide you home
Home to the Father
That’s where we belong

Clay Corvin 8/20/05

That’s the way to do
Bend your knee to God
Ask Him to forgive you
Ask Him for new life

Listen to His teaching
Read His laws
In each law is wisdom
To help you when you fall

Learn the wisdom of the ages
We do what we are
The only truth we know
Is the truth we do

Stand up
Fight for goodness
No idols in your life
Let Jesus cleanse your heart

Stop with your complaining
It will not be your way
Evil comes a calling
It will have its pay

God is love and mercy
Jesus came to us
True power is in sacrifice
You cannot love too much

Forgive those who hurt you
Work for the peace
Give your heart to Jesus
He will give you peace
