TOBY'S PRAYER

 


I saw Toby standing there, with tears in his eyes.

He had a serious condition that tormented him inside.

He struggled with the pain, it was hard to cope.

So he prayed to the Lord, it was Toby's only hope.

HE PRAYED IN THE MORNING, HE PRAYED IN THE NIGHT.

HE WANTED HIS GOD, HELP HIM WIN THIS FIGHT.

THE PAIN WAS UNBEARABLE, HIS FUTURE LOOKED GRIM.

BUT HE KNEW ONE DAY, GOD WILL HEAL HIM.

He talked to his friends, he smiled and laughed.

He cried on his pillow, when the pain came back.

There was no cure, his suffering had no end.

So he closed his eyes, he said a prayer again.

HE PRAYED IN THE MORNING, HE PRAYED IN THE NIGHT.

HE WANTED HIS GOD, HELP HIM WIN THIS FIGHT.

THE PAIN WAS UNBEARABLE, HIS FUTURE LOOKED GRIM.

BUT HE KNEW ONE DAY, GOD WILL HEAL HIM.

With moments of agony that plagued him every day.

He remembered a bible verse, the one he used to say.

God is always with you, so do not be dismayed.

God is also our healer, so he decided to pray.

HE PRAYED IN THE MORNING, HE PRAYED IN THE NIGHT.

HE WANTED HIS GOD, HELP HIM WIN THIS FIGHT.

THE PAIN WAS UNBEARABLE, HIS FUTURE LOOKED GRIM.

BUT HE KNEW ONE DAY, GOD WILL HEAL HIM.

MY JOURNEY

 


Please help me in my journey,

to find out my calling.

I know you still love me,

there's a reason for my living.

Please help me in my work,

to do well in my task.

That you set before me,

with the help I ask.

Please help me in my mission,

to help those in need.

To share the good news,

so everyone can believe.

Please help me in my burden,

and each trial I must bear.

Give me the strength,

in time of despair.

Please help me to forgive,

an act that you can see.

So when my time comes,

you will forgive me.

LIGHT OF THE LORD

 


I once had a dream that I'll never forget.

It seemed so real, about a stranger I met.

He held a big sign that you couldn't miss.

Printed in bold letters, "You Got To Hear This."

He pointed to the candles, with a message for me.

"They'll Shed Some Light, On How Life Should Be."

There were four candles, only one with a flame. 

Attached to each candle, it had their own name.

The first candle spoke, "It's JOY you need today."

"No one cared to listen, so my flame faded away."

Second candle proclaimed, "It's PEACE to bring harmony."

"They chose to hate instead, my flame you won't see."

"It's LOVE!" third candle said, "for anyone torn apart."

"They chose to ignore me, so I can't warm their heart."

The fourth candle declared, "I still have light."

"I represent HOPE!" you can use me tonight."

I took the one candle, to light the other three.

I came to realize, there's HOPE inside of me.

When I lit each candle, PEACE, JOY and LOVE. 

I receive all three, when I seek God above.

A PROMISE AND A PRAYER

 


I close my eyes,

 and I pray to you.

I ask you Lord, 

what can I do?

I long for the day, 

you hear my prayer.

For my mission in life, 

just show me where.

I deny myself,

 and take up the cross.

Whatever I gained, 

I consider it a loss.

I will follow you Lord, 

wherever it may be.

Just show me now, 

what you have for me.

I submit to your will, 

I give up my ways.

I serve and obey, 

for the rest of my days.

I give you my best, 

in everything I do.

I promise to be faithful,

and always honor you.

LOVE NEVER HURTS

 


Love never hurts, don't be afraid.
Love never hurts, it's a helping aid.
Love never makes you sad or cry.
Love is there, always at your side.
Love never goes,
 when you need a hand.
Love always shows,
 that someone understands.
Love never ends,
 when you do something wrong.
Love is never weak,
it's always strong.
Love never hurts, don't be afraid.
Love never hurts, it's a helping aid.
Love never makes you sad or cry.
Love is there, always at your side.
Love is always patient,
 it's friendly all the time.
It's not easily angered,
 it'll always be kind.
Love keeps us together,
 it'll never break us apart.
It's more than emotion, 
it mends a broken heart.
Love never hurts, don't be afraid.
Love never hurts, it's a helping aid.
Love never makes you sad or cry.
Love is there, always at your side.
