~Heroism~

What is heroism?

Is it of the drave who go

Where battles faught against their foe,

And when won a cry goes out

"Victory!" they all do shout.

No! It is not of the braves,

Whose names are written on their graves

And songs  sung of many a deed

That they so valiantly did lead.

You could be a hero,too

Just by doing what you do

And you will find, without being crowned,

Your name in history will be found.

GAZING INTO HIS FACE

Look into your Fathers face
His loving eyes dim all disgrace
He's telling you He loves you
And isn't that enough?

PERFECT PEACE

Lord take this fear from me

I can't live this way

I can't have a life consumed

By fears and doubts one more day.

Lord I want to be free
And I feel like I'm missing out

On life and everything

That you have for me.

And I know I can't live past

The disappointment that I feel

When I know I can give you 

So much more. And Lord...

I want to give you my all,

Without fear, knowing that

You will catch me

If ever I were to fall

I want to be free to love You

Free to worship You

Free to give You

All that I am.

EMPTY ME OF ALL I AM

In the stillness of the night,

As I come to you in prayer,

Asking You to help me draw near.

'Cause I feel so far away;

Just one more mistake

And I'm leavin' You forever.

I'm distracted with the things of time,

The spirit of this age is pulling me.

I don't understand the power of it all.

I'm so lost and alone;

The troubles of my heart, so enlarged.

Lord cover me with your love

 This is where I am, Lord,

And prey not where I stay.

Lord, I need a savior!

Empty me of all I am

And fill me anew.

I want to be filled with you!

Guard my soul with Your love.
Let no selfish ambitions 

Distract me from You.

Turn me from theese things of time

And draw me near to You.

I want to be with You!

Fill this emptyness in me

With Your spirit of love.

It is You my soul yearns for!

STAND STRONG

When the stake is raised

And the fire is ablaze

Will you still follow Me?

When my very name is despised

And those who believe terrorized 

Will you still follow Me?

When my people are mocked

And prison doors are locked

Will you still follow Me?

Rise up and prepare yourselves, 

For we are at war! The earth

Groans for the birth of righteousness.

Rejoice in those who are

persecuted for My sake;

For theirs is the kingdom of heaven!

Depend on Me,oh my people;

For I will never forsake you.

Was it not I who brought you this far?

Stand strong you of little faith;

For I Am the Lord, your God,

And you shall not be shaken!___

RECONSECRATE YOURSELF TO HIM

Why has the excitement died down?

Where is the yearning for more?

Have we lost all sense of direction?

Where are the fools for Christ?

Who do I turn to?

Where are the examples?

When the shofar blows, who answers?

When the Lord speaks, who listens?

Why has complacency crept in?

Why have we gone astray ?

Where is the strong wall of men?

Why have we let things slip in?

Where is the zeal for righteousness?

It's time to rise up, shake off the dust,

Free yourself from complacency!

Re consecrate yourself to Him!

Put away your marriages

 Of foreign and worldly things

And be with Him!
