Ride on, Lord

Ride on, Lord, ride on
The final deed is yet to be done.

Ride on, Lord, ride, ride
As the crowd 'Hosannah' cried

Ride on, Lord, ride, ride
To Golgotha to be crucified

The silence of eternity was broken

The silence of eternity was broken
and powerful words of creation spoken.
"Let there be light, " The Almighty God said
And virgin light through the universe sped.

With her touch she turned the house into a home

With her touch she turned the house into a home
transforming it as she went from room to room.
Those things that seem to go unnoticed by men
were thoughtfully arranged again and again.

Mother's day - You will always be

My mum was always there
My mum was full of care
My mum always loved me
My mum will always be

She's not here any more
She's gone through heaven's door
But she will always be
my precious mum to me.

Adam

Bending down and kissing this man of sod
and breathing into him the breath of God.
Tenderly the lips of man God had found
and the man called Adam rose from the ground.

Written after reading Genesis 2: 7

Sad Sadducees

The Sadducees
were sad you see.
They did not like what Peter said
that Jesus had risen from the dead.

But the lame man walked
and the people talked.
For by the risen power of Jesus' name
The man was healed and no longer lame.

I Don't Know What To Pray

I bow my head not knowing what to say.
The list grows longer as I start to pray.
For each one I try hard to intercede
as for Your Grace and great Mercy I plead.
In my prayers I bring each one to You
so helpless and knowing not what to do.

Immanuel

God with us Immanuel
came down with man to dwell.
For a virgin has given birth
to the Son of God upon the earth.

All the prophets born of old
of the the Saviours birth had foretold.
God incarnate He would be
and from all sin will set us free.

Born again

I praise You Lord, for Spiritual rebirth
that comes from heaven and not from earth.
For freshly opened eyes upon You to gaze
and for lips set free to sing Your praise.
For ears unstopped to hear Your word
and a brand new heart to love You Lord

On Holy ground

On Holy ground we tread
whenever the bible is read.
For words of life are spoken there
as God's living word we share.

Speak Lord in the stillness now
as humble in spirit I bow.
Unstop my ears that I may hear
Your words of Life so loud and clear.
