TIMES
IN MY LIFE
On
Psalm 19
There are times in my life
when I haven't got the strength to face the day;
And before the morning sun appears,
I pray the world would all just fade away.
It is then, You would draw close to me
and You'd fill me with Your love.
You would strengthen me anew
and lift me high above life's cold dark fray.
Showing me the way,
as in Your arms I lay,
and all the cares of the day,
would just fade away,
In You my Lord.
How often do I forget the promise, that,
You'll always be near me when I call.
How often do I let my problems overwhelm me,
I stumble, then I fall.
It's just then Your light begins to shine,
and make my spirit grow.
Your living water flows in through my life and soon,
I am standing tall,
For You have conquered all,
All my heart, All my soul,
Now in your controll,
and I am your's,
Jesus, I'm your's.
Now let the words of my mouth
and the meditations of my heart,
Give praise to you my Lord.
May they always and forever more
be excepted in your sight,
I will praise you my Lord.
For you are my Lord, my rock, and my salvation.
Christ Jesus, my Lord,
May my life always proclaim, You are my Lord.
Jesus, my Lord.
All Praise to You my Lord.
Eternally, my Lord.
Christ Jesus my Lord.

INFECTIOUS LOVE
Can we find a virus, a strain that is most infectious?
To be used to infect all humanity,
though the purpose will not be immediately obvious.
A virus, with the gene of love so toxic and contagious.
Its origin could only be traced to the Son that saved us.
Humanity's infection would be complete,
awaking all souls that are spiritually dead.
Hate, violence, pain and suffering
would be taken from this world,
bringing everlasting love and life instead.
