Soft Winds

Life’s strong currents had carried us

Far beyond ourselves

Lost in the vacant worlds of loneliness

Where the trails of the ‘maybes’ and the ‘could be’s’

Had faded and disappeared

Not finding our way

We wandered down the path

Of fears and self doubt

Then over the crest of time

Soft winds began to blow

A tender kiss, a tiny hug

A look that meant so much

The warm breeze nudging love awake

Beckoning us to come to another place

A place of peace where the other mattered most

And to not be afraid of tomorrow

The soft winds whispered through our souls

Caressed the thoughts of our minds

Springing anew expectant hope

Of a lifetime spent as two

Taking tiny little steps at first

Each fearful of another fall

Yet knowing in our hearts

That the soft winds of a Father’s loving will

Had brought us safely home.

Only One

The world had had many conquerors

As everyone can see

But only One has conquered

The devil’s sin for me.

Only One has brought peace of mind

Only One has been so sweet, so kind

Only One has taken away the fear

Only One keeps me near

Only One has eased the pain

And only One will come back again.

Only One puts joy in my heart

Only One gives a brand new start

Only One has kissed my fevered brow

Only One has my salvation now

Only One has saved my soul

And Only One has nail-scarred hands to hold.

In the Beauties of Holiness; From the Womb of the Morning (Ps. 110:3)

Sunrise glistens on sleepy dewdrops

Suspended on spidery webs

Birds awaken to sing a new song

Chasing away the dark night

In the beauties of holiness

Life’s at it’s best

And from the womb of the morning

God’s children are blessed.

As starlight fades, the moon scurries on

Leaving behind the feathery dawn

Roses bloom gently among the sweet baby’s breath

Lifting their face to the sun

In the beauties of holiness

The Light shines so true

From the womb of the morning

God’s mercies are new

Daybreak burst forth in rapturous glee

Emblazoned by glorious hues

Clouds race across the steel-blue sky

Dancing to the music of God

In the beauties of holiness

Hearts are reborn

From the womb of the morning

God’s love carries on.

So with each ray of the sun

That pierces the shadowy night

I gratefully receive from the womb of the morning

The beauties of holiness in my LORD and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST!
