In your ways oh God,

Redemption is better than perfection.

Your ways are better than life.

 

How could I forget you?

After all you have done for me?

After all you’ve done for me…

 

I will give you all my praise.

Let your glory shine on me.

Over and over you prove yourself to be faithful.

 

There is a song inside my soul, just waiting to be free.

 

King of Glory August 14, 2009

Filed under: Praise, Stuff by me — Lydia @ 7:57 pm

King of glory, hear my cry

It’s your heart I long to know

Your kindness and relentless love

To this world I will somehow show.

Gaze into my eyes

Look deep into my heart.

You have been close all along,

You never left me from the start.

You are my beloved

I am yours and you are mine.

Fan this flame that’s deep within

This light of mine, oh let it shine.

May your name be lifted high

All honor and glory to you.

I bow at your throne in all your splendor

Although my words are few.

Drench me in your sweet love

Teach me to walk in Your will

Saturate my soul.

I am desperate for you still.

Surrounding me is your beauty:

The way a bird can fly

The colors of the morning sunrise

and the mysteries of the sky.

Rid me of myself.

Cleanse me and make me new.

This world has nothing for me

All I want is you.

I will dance, I will sing

Take me under the shadow of your wing.

I will dance, I will sing

All for you, my glorious King.

 

Always learning.. May 30, 2009

Filed under: Life, Stuff by me, Thoughts — Lydia @ 5:14 am

Sometimes we don’t realize how quickly time goes by…

Things that seem so big at the moment, will pass.

Find something to be passionate about.

Life is a playground, we just seem to forget this as we grow up.

Cherish the small things.

Rejoice in the truth.

A cheerful heart is good medicine (Prov 17:22)

Once you’ve experienced the love of God, nothing, NOTHING, can ever compare.

Love is not jealous.

Love never gives up.

Be patient in trouble, and always be prayerful. (Rom 12:12)

Follow your dreams, even if you are the only who who belives in them.

Allow yourself to be loved.

Hugs can heal.

Delight in the Lord, and He will give you the desires of your heart. (Psalms 37:4)

My life May 8, 2009

Filed under: Life, Stuff by me — Lydia @ 8:22 pm

I dream. Maybe one day they will come true.

I strive.  I learn to lay my burdens down.

I forgive. Everyone deserves second chance.

I laugh. It burns calories.

I explore. Who knows what I could find.

I doubt. My heart is right when my head is wrong.

I listen. God whispers through the silence.

I cry.  When I am overwhelmed with the chaos of life and the gift of love.

I look. An opportunity could be knocking.

I learn. From my mistakes and the wisdom of parents and mentors.

I imagine. Creativity is everywhere.

I wait. It all takes patience.

 

My Song.. December 16, 2008

Filed under: Random!, Stuff by me — Lydia @ 6:16 am

I have a voice

I have a song

I have in me a new soul,

His strength to make me strong.

Blow the trumphets

Release the sound

Create in me a new heart

As the walls come crashing down.

You are my JOY

You are my wings.

You are my new song;

The reason that I sing.

To Him who comes to destroy-

Your lies I choose not to belive.

It is Him who sits on the throne

Who has placed this heart in me.

Only a song with broken lyrics,

Out of tune and off beat

When I give you the pen and paper

It is then my song is complete.

Write my story

Lead the way

Give me YOUR voice,

Your words for me to say.

I have a voice

I have a song

Release in me the sound

So that I may lead the world along.
