A DIVINE STREAM
The love of Jesus
Flows into our hearts
Like a divine stream,
In direct proportion
To our love for Him.
Lord,take my life
and everything that makes it worth living.
I give You everything.
Let Your blessed Will
be done in my life.
All Jesus wants is our fervent love,
And nothing makes us happier
than the clear-cut knowledge
that He loves us.
We are so privileged to love Him,
who gave His life for us,
What a blessed assurance
of divine love.
PICK THE ROSES
Let's walk hand in hand
With the Lord
Along sunlit ways.
The road that leads to heaven
Is lined with roses.
You won't mind
A thorn or two,will you?
The fragrance of the flower
Oft hides
The prickles of the stem.
Heaven's choicest blessings are
Oft hidden
In green calyxes.
Come on,
Let's rise
And pick the roses.
SET MY SPIRIT FREE
Set my spirit free
To soar unbound,
And unhindered
Across the divine skies
Of God's paradise.
Give me light,Lord.
I'm tired
Of groping in the dark.
Oh,raise me up,Saviour,
And let me be
Strong and stalwart
And blooming for Thee.
A SHINING LIGHT
A shining light
Beckons to me,
Let me go......
Let me ascend the heights
And see the glorious morn.
I see a field,
A rich harvest's yield,
Let me go......
I see mountains
With thatched huts
And burning fires.
Village children
Beckon to me,
Their beautiful eyes
Burning
With intense longing,
Let me go......
NEW HERITAGE
A torrent of thoughts
Streamed telegraphically
Through the inner recesses
Of my mind.
My heart quickened
At the stunning realization
Of the momentous decision
I had just taken.
I now bore
The mark of
A new being,
Was heir to
A new heritage.
It was remarkable.
I had just become
A Christian.
SAILING
Let us sail to reach God's heaven,
Paddle,row across the seas,
Never looking at the wind's direction,
But always,only at Jesus.
Let the winds blow ever so strongly,
Let the boat toss,tilt or turn over,
Never fear or even quaver,
For we wear our life-belts in stormy weather,
Our duty is to praise our Saviour,
No earthly fear shall ever prevail.
Let us sail to reach God's heaven,
Paddle,row across the seas,
Never,ever fearing the winds,
But looking only at Jesus.
THE ULTIMATE TEST
In the wake of difficulties
Of every kind,
The ultimate test
Is in one's own mind.
Christian,
Press on to conquer,
Persist in your quest
And soon you will find
That all your trials are blest.
When problems abound,
Never give up,
For it is just then
That the tide will turn.
Your trials will recede
And triumph will precede,
So keep holding on
Until the trials are gone.
SPONTANEOUS PRAISE
Spontaneous praise
Unleashes tremendous power
Every second,minute and hour.
Let us always strive to sing
Heart-felt praises to our King.
May our joy-filled voices ring
Loud and clear,
Far and near,
Right up into the heavens.
Spontaneous praise pleases God
Bringing His choicest blessings down.
Let us always strive to raise
Our gratitude to God in praise.
LAUNCH OUT IN FAITH
Launch out into the deep,
Our Lord gently commands,
Do not cling onto the shore.
It is only when
You step out in faith
That God can bless you
All the more.
Launch out in faith,
Assured that
Christ will meet your every need.
It is only when
You launch out,
Leaving behind all your doubt
That God can abundantly pour
His blessings upon you
All the more.
Launch out into the deep sea
Of God's divine,holy Word.
DIVINE GUIDANCE
In every problem that we face,
God will truly guide,
If we promise to abide,
By His Word.
As we wait at His feet,
In the sweetest fellowship,
We shall hear His gentle voice
Whispering to us softly.
All we need to do is listen,
In the deepest attention,
Paying the utmost heed,
To the divine Word
Of our Lord.
As we bow to obey,
We shall surely find,
Treasured blessings of every kind,
Flowing through our hearts and minds,
Bringing health and healing,
Joy in pain,
Never loss but gain.
Obedience is what God demands,
We must obey His commands,
And by doing what He says,
He will richly fill all our days,
With happiness and praise.
