DEAR LORD
Please guide me
To do Your will, not mine
To serve You,
by serving others
To please You
and not myself
But let my pleasure in life
come from pleasing You
++++++
++++++
CALL TO GOD
I call to God, and He is there
I cry to God, He hears my prayer
I reach for Him, He comes to me
His love is mine, eternally
When I’m alone, He takes my part
When sorrow comes, He heals my heart
When I’m afraid, He stills my fear
In everything, He’s always near
++++++
A WILLING CAPTIVE
Take captive every thought Lord,
every thought and every deed
Take captive all my life Lord,
for it’s You alone I need
Make me a prisoner now Lord,
of Your love that sets me free
Then free, I choose to be Your slave
through all eternity
Take captive every thought Lord,
take captive every deed
Take captive all my life Lord,
for it’s You alone I need
Please change me and transform me
and make my life anew
Take captive all my life Lord,
and make me more like You
++++++
KEEP PRAYING
When we need help,
it’s to God we pray
But there is one thing
that you should say
“Whatever I pray for,
I will gain
only if it glorifies His name”
He always answers
your every prayer
He never fails,
for He’s always there
But how He will answer
is His choice
Just wait patiently
to hear His voice
Keep praying,
talking and listening too
In His time,
His words will come to you
++++++
MY PRAYER
Two ears, one mouth,
Dear Lord I pray
That I remember every day
To listen moreand speak much less
And use my silence,Lord, to bless
The hurting heart
that needs to speak
The longing mind
that yearns to seek
And through my quiet,
Lord, I pray
You bless each listener
every day
++++++
THANK YOU GOD
All my trust I place in Thee
And from fear You set me free
All my hopes fulfilled in You
Faithful God, for ever true
++++++
PSALM 121
Shall I look to the world
when I am in need
No, I look to Him who made
the world, God indeed
He won’t let me stumble
or fall in the deep
For He’s always watching,
He’s never asleep
He’s there to defend me
through day and through night
He saves me from badness
and keeps my life right
He watches me always
from heaven above
And guides me for ever
with His perfect love
++++++
BELOVED LORD
Beloved Lord,
You’re all I need
Take every thought
and every deed
Just let me be
Your willing slave
For Your approval,
Lord, I crave
Please let me serve
You to the end
To be Your daughter
and Your friend
Let all my life
and all I do
Be dedicated
unto You
++++++
DEAR SWEET JESUS
Dear sweet Jesus,
You are my best friend
Through thick and thin
on You I depend
When I’m feeling down
You pick me up
If I am empty,
You fill my cup
Together in happiness
we rejoice
In my songs of praise
I hear Your voice
You are my Father
and my brother
Beside you Lord
there is no other
Dearest Jesus,
lover of my soul
With You alone Lord
I am made whole
++++++
MY WISH
My earnest wish,
my true desire
The thing to which
I most aspire
Is just to please
my Lord and King
In all I do,
in everything
++++++
PENITENT
I know I’m guilty of pride
My sins I just cannot hide
I feel so dirty inside
NOW is the time I must seek Him
I’m ashamed of the lies I’ve said
I’m not happy the path I tread
My failings go round in my head
NOW is the time I entreat Him
My sins are ever before me
The sins that, Lord, are against thee
Bondage that You alone can free
NOW is the time I beseech Him
Purge me Lord and I shall be clean
Wash me Father whiter than snow
Make me hear joy and gladness, Lord
And your peace again I shall know
Create in me a clean heart God
A right spirit renew within
Fill me with Your presence Lord
And keep my poor soul from sin
++++++
CHANGE ME
Please work in me Lord
and change me
To Your will and design
That all I say and think and do
Is Your will, Lord,
not mine
++++++
ONLY THEE
Take away earthly thought,
and leave only thoughts of thee
Take away my selfishness
that Your child I may be
Change my way of thinking
and replace my every word
Till I belong completely
and wholly to my Lord
++++++
BE MY LORD
Be my strength when I am weak
And my guide whose path I seek
Be my help in times of stress
Slow to anger, quick to bless
Be my friend who’s always there
Showing how You love and care
Be my joy in life each day
As I walk the better way
Be my light ere darkness fall
Be my life, my love, my all
++++++
HOW GREAT

His word our hearts obey
Oh take our lives and change us,
Beloved Lord we pray
++++++
PURGE ME
Purge me Lord,
and I shall be clean
Wash me Father,
whiter than snow
Make me hear joy
and gladness Lord
And your peace again
I shall know
Create in me
a clean heart, God
A right spirit
renew within
Fill me with
Your presence Lord
And keep my
poor soul from sin

FIRST LOVE
You are my first love and my last
You are my future and my past
You are my night, you are my day

to give me the means to help others now
I cast my burden on You Lord,
please guide all my life and show me Your way
My worries now I give to You
and receive from You sweet peace every day
