Within the dawning hour
In sky of rising blue
I offer up this day to be
Seen in the light of You
May treasures that I seek
Be issued from above
Generous my gracious God
Outpouring of Your love
Rest now my thoughts to be
My soul within Your hands
Faith chase all doubts away
Trust be in Your plans
Acceptance flow within my heart
Your will my only goal
Receiving those in my path
Connecting through the soul
Grateful be my heart this day
Your blessings overflow
Let heart rejoice in visions seen
Your kingdom let me know
Wisdom blessed as Solomon
Within my being seep
To see my day through Your view
My soul within Your keep
Freeing is the Flow
A silent voice of whisper
Echoes from within
Soft in welcome comfort
Outpouring now begin
Into trust of safety
Let heart now speak the true
Past caution of the guard
Giving all to you
Hurt and fear emotions
Holding nothing back
Emptying the burden
Feelings to unpack
Freeing is the flow
Pouring into You
Trust found as a treasure
My heart Your seeing through
Resting in repose
Your eyes speak only love
Soul receives its grace
Wisdom from above
Gift me with Your strength
View to start anew
Foot steps first in love
Your will my soul pursue
Blessed Day
Oh blessed be this day
Covered in your grace
Love outpoured in blessings
Wrapped in Your embrace
A will begins its choices
A seed within the heart
View of this day’s journey
Let Spirit now impart
Leading with humility
Loves decision true
Wisdom in perspective
Of a Godly view
Heart please seek Your lonely
Let beauty be the prize
Found in pause of silence
Bond to exercise
Hope in God divine
Who never disappoints
Seeking of the Holy
A bond that He anoints
Let joy abound within
The grace that we receive
Hold fast unto His promise
Live what we believe!
Receiving the Now
We often cast away
The precious gift of now
A treasure set before us
Received if will allows
Distractions steal away
Beauty for our eyes
Precious gifts of soul
Encased in worlds disguise
We search inside our phones
Thoughts drift to future tasks
Rushing feet hurry forth
We put on our best masks
Gods plan is in the present
In this moment just for us
If we’ll just pause with open eyes
Refocusing our trust
To know that God is present
Our being in His love
To open soul receiving
To help us rise above
Accepting His love given
To see within the now
For whom can we outpour?
His blessings to endow
Just Beyond
Beyond the world of which we see
Just on the edge of what we know
Intertwined so purposely
To open soul you long to show
In quiet pause of daybreak rise
In whispered colors sweet
In breath of breeze blessed on the cheek
A movement of retreat
A sparkles shine on crest of wave
Erupting bloom of growth
In rising joy of sharing souls
One light found in the both
In touching hand or dancing step
A lighter way to be
A constant drawing to the One
Our God we long to see
Awareness drawn to things unseen
Known in our being deep
What a joy to view Your seen
This vision may I keep
No Tears
I hear the morning news
Violence fills my ears
My heart is deeply moved
But eyes, they have no tears
Such evil in this world
Such suffering and pain
Overwhelming wave
For evil, such distain
But numbness steals the love
Too much to overcome
So I sit and watch
Standby to what’s been done
So battle has been lost
The evil one prevails
Dear Jesus move my heart
Enlist me to assail
By pausing now to pray
For angels that You send
Melt the hearts of evil
And broken hearts to mend
Let first stop be to me
To root out all my sin
When I step towards pride
Let humbleness now win
Let me join Your angels
Thwart evil, now we pray
Victory of battle
The winning of Your way
Perfect now I will not be
But news trigger my heart
Remind me of this calling
In prayer now let me start
Voice of Angels
If you could only see
The view from heaven’s door
Worries all would flee
Fear would be no more
For God is in control
Word is only love
A plan is all in place
Wisdom from above
Look around and see
Glimpses of His light
Open ear and hear
Whispers shining bright
Saints and angels sing
Sweet rejoicing praise
Lifting Spirit high
Hear our voice today
Moment Holy
With every drop of moment
An opportunity within
To claim it to be holy
In will, it all begins
Our gift of life is blessed
When offered up to You
Turn purpose of desire
Of these thoughts in turning to
A prayer begins the way
Conversation with our Lord
Asking Him to send
His Spirit to outpour
Allow the eye to see
The wonder of the sky
Lifting Spirit up
A greater view applied
Turn ear to hear Your voice
In silence of the heart
Soak in Your daily Word
Of wisdom to impart
Spark new a grateful heart
Of blessings overflowed
Generous in spreading
The seeds of which You sow
Let praise be on our lips
Encouragement outpour
Your song be in our soul
In blessings giving more
With souls placed in our path
Accepting them with care
Binding in our wounds
Transparency to share
Being who you are
Who God meant you to be
Sharing in your gifts
With generosity
We have a greater purpose
Anointed with new name
Investment in beyond
With just one Holy claim
In empty moments of our day
Or times when head does spin
Choose holy to this moment be
By inviting our God in
Attitude
Stirring into consciousness, as the morning breaks
I invite you in, before the mind awakes
With knowledge of Your truth, Your perfect plan in place
My soul is dear to You, covered with Your grace
Let joy arise within, that you are in control
Doors have been prepared, your will to be my goal
An attitude to form, my will is truly free
Hope to live my faith, in choice follow thee
The outlook may be grim, seen as drudgery
Fear or suffering, dealing with adversity
Let me see Your light, of what you’ve put in place
Seek souls that we can lift, dwell within Your space
Rejoicing in the small, Spirit in the air
Beauty that you send, discovered everywhere
My hope is found in You, from love can’t separate
Singing song of praise, In You to celebrate!
Wrapped in Me
Life can be stressful
So much to do
Come, rest in my arms
For a moment or two
Lay down your burdens
In this hand of mine
Your cross on my shoulder
Fall into my time
Rest now my child
Wade into the deep
Let go in my comfort
Your soul in my keep
Drift into my freedom
In my kingdom be
My chosen beloved
You’re cherished by me
Dwell in the knowledge
That my love is true
All of my treasures
I offer to you
Peace of my promise
Will never fail
With blessings before you
I’ve yet to unveil
Abide in our union
Forever we’ll be
Let’s journey together
Your soul wrapped in Me
