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.

STARTING OVER

 

I feel the tension mounting,

 every second of every day.

The stress overwhelms me,

and nothing goes my way.

I lost my favorite job,

and my options are very few.

I lost my best friend,

what am I going to do?

Starting over was never easy, 

it never was meant to be.

It's always a time of learning,

and not a time of harmony.

My bills keep piling,

and all my cupboards are bare.

I reached out to others,

but no one really cares.

I lost another car,

and all my possessions too.

Here I am starting over,

at the age of sixty-two

Starting over was never easy,

it never was meant to be.

It's always a time of learning,

and not a time of harmony.

So I fix my eyes on Jesus,

I know he's always near.

He can take away my sorrows,

and cast away my fears.

I place my hope in Jesus,

even when life looks grim.

He promised to help me,

I know I can trust him. 

Seek GOD

My day is filled, 

with trial and error.

My mind is cluttered, 

with burdens I bear.

My heart is troubled, 

when no one cares.

So then my soul, 

seeks God who's there.

My day goes by, 

with so much stress.

My mind is looking, 

for peace and rest.

My heart is weary 

and hurting too.

So then my soul, 

calls out to you.

YOU HEALED MY HEART 

AND CLEANSED MY SOUL.

YOU GAVE ME STRENGTH 

AND MADE ME WHOLE. 

YOU SENT YOUR SPIRIT, 

TO GUIDE ME THROUGH.

YOU SHOW YOUR LOVE, 

IN ALL YOU DO.

My day looks bad 

and I'm feeling down.

My mind is lost, 

from pacing around.

My heart beats fast, 

in face of fear.

So then my soul, 

seeks God who's near.

The time has come, 

where it's hard to cope.

My mind is searching, 

where there is hope.

My heart does ache, 

for perfect love.

So then my soul, 

seeks God above.

YOU HEALED MY HEART 

AND CLEANSED MY SOUL.

YOU GAVE ME STRENGTH 

AND MADE ME WHOLE.

YOU SENT YOUR SPIRIT, 

TO GUIDE ME THROUGH.

YOU SHOW YOUR LOVE, 

IN ALL YOU DO.
