Echoes thunder in my head like lighting
Flashing within my soul
Guilt pierces the night
Revealing the excuses stained with sin
Father help me I need You so!
Forgive me
Bring Your sweet rain of peace
Within my soul
Soft and tender
Banish this storm of regret and condemnation
Quiet the voices that thunder out their lies
Cover me with Your wings of love
And I will be safe.
Every moment of everyday
They come like the sun at dawn
Caught off guard sometimes by the emotions
That swirl among the memories of time
Listening for the lyrics of yesterday
Smiling and remembering those perfect
Thoughts from the past
Who would have known such happiness
Could just fade into the air of never
Where are they? Where did they go?
Will they ever come back?
Maybe they are just a thought away.
Shhhhh can you hear it?
The sounds of the heart as it smiles
The grateful tear as it falls
The touch of love on a baby’s cheek
The gentle breeze of summer
The softness of the rose
The sigh of contentment
The hand of grace upon a soul
The promise of the future
The innocence 0f love
The forgiveness of another
The healing balm of mercy
The stars as they shine
The moonlight on new snow
The look on a child’s face as they sleep
The helping hand of compassion
The bonds of friendship
Just to mention a few
All are miracles to be received
And cherished
For each speaks volumes
If we will only listen.
Dreams are fickle little things to carry around
Yet weigh so much if not achieved
Hopes dwindle and doubts betray
All because they cannot receive joy or keep believing
They second guess everything
Should they do this or maybe even that
Which never gives a true answer
But yet they try to listen
They need fulfillment and no empty spaces to call home
Always wondering and expectantly waiting
Searching for the path that will finally
Bring them home to their destiny
Sweet dreams, happy dreams
Always complete with time
Bringing the heart to the full knowledge
That God has the answers and always always knows the way.
The night thunders within the darkness
Brilliant lightning dances across the sky
Billowing clouds rise on windy currents of air
Warnings have gone forth to ease the troubled soul
Storms are brewing across his land
As the winter wheat gets planted
Farmers place their hopes within this ground of promise
Seeds of new life will now sprout forth
As God ordained
They try to hang on to the winds of time
Placing the future within the unknown
The storms are worrisome for now
Crops must be sown to have the harvest
They will wait out the night watching
Listening for the dreaded hail
Praying for deliverance from destruction
Heroic are the tillers of the field
For they are the backbone
And honorable strength of this nation
Thank you, Farmers and Ranchers
May God bless you on this stormy night
And on into the coming harvest and for Eternity.
They fall from her heart
But make no sound
Salty rain brims from eyes of sadness
Then flow in quick unison
Down her cheeks
As her soul weeps seeking comfort
For only God knows how much she hurts
As He collects her silent tears.
Time has again taken it’s toll
What was to be may be no more
Can’t play the music or do the dance
Left within this darkness there is no light
Choices delayed break the heart
Hope dies and dwindles away
Faith tries to believe but just can’t
Don’t know what else to do
It wasn’t enough
Time has again taken it’s toll
Silence speaks it’s on language
Dictating each second into the past
Never to be heard from again
The ticking of the clock pushing
Hopes into my yesterdays
Tears cry out for the now that doesn’t come
Do I linger on these thoughts and dreams?
Have I any hope in what the future vaguely offers?
When will the promises come to me?
Does faith carry them in her wings?
I see no light for the coming tomorrows
Is today the twilight of my world?
Life do you have any answers
For the questions asked?
Wait is the only one I hear!
Cries in the night from sorrow and grief
For a love that was lost in time
We did not plan to be parted
So we didn’t count the cost
Broken hearts beating no longer as one
Tarnished and bruised and all alone
Accountable only to God now
All our plans were undone
We did not know we couldn’t have each other
So the tears have continued to fall
Weeping eyes tell the tale
Letting go will be the hardest of all
Why were we brought together again?
Just to be torn apart by what’s right
Paths traveled have led us here
Still separate yet maybe together someday
In eternal life.
I feel so lost
So inadequate
Where did I go?
Who am I now?
I can’t find me anymore
Who would I be if I did?
Searching but never finding
Hating the way I am
But lost inside this fog of the unknown
Find me please!
Return me to You
But leave the old me where she belongs
In the past
With all my insecurities
And all the other selves
Who are weak and useless
Never bearing fruit
A tree with just leaves is only shade and shadows
Void of light.
