psalms

The Psalmist's Corner

Jesus told us that out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks. It would also be true that the songs we sing are an honest reflection of our hearts.

These are the lyrics to a few of the songs the Lord has blessed me with.

To A Friend

Life is a precious thing

Love too dear to abuse

When the windows are open

When visions are clear

Hope mounts the horizon

Chasing away our fear

Falling on our spirits now

Something born so dear

Life is more precious

Love alive and more real

Looking through an open window

Seeing with vision more clear

All things made more perfect

As the petals are left to bloom

Unforced by human emotion

And dressed in seasons of time

The Secret Place

From Psalm 91

In the quiet of the secret place

Lord I seek your face

Abiding in your shadow

My God in whom I trust

Surely you deliver me

From the pestilence and storm

Truth shall be my buckler

Your truth shall make me strong

You set your love on me

Because you know my name

You call and I will answer

I will not be afraid

In the quiet of the secret place

Lord I seek your face

Abiding in your shadow

My God in whom I trust

Oh See What He Can Do

From Psalm 78:12-16

Marvelous things he has done

In the sight of our fathers

In the land of Egypt

In the field of Sloan

Jehovah parted the sea

And caused them to pass through

Made the waters stand in a heap

O see what he can do

By day he led by the cloud

By night a pillar of fire

Split the rock and gave them drink

O see what he can do

Jehovah

Jehovah is the Lord

Be Exalted O God

From Psalm 57

Be exalted O God above the heavens

Let your glory fill all the earth

Be exalted O God above the heavens

Let your glory fill all the earth

I will praise you O Lord among the people

I will sing and give you praise

For your mercy reaches unto the heavens

And your truth unto the earth

Awake my glory

Awake song and harp

Awake my glory

I will praise the Lord

We Seek You Lord

From Psalm 27:7-8

Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When you said, "Seek my face," my heart said to you, "Your face, Lord, will I seek."

We seek you Lord

We seek your face

To know your love

Know your saving grace

We seek you now

With our voices raised

We seek you Lord

With hearts filled with praise

Hear Me When I Call

Lord hear me when I call

Tear down oppositions walls

I want to touch your hand

And look upon your face

Lord hear me when I call

I want to see you riding on the clouds

See you part the raging sea

I want to see your glory on the land

Casting down our enemy

I want to see the loaves and fishes

Multiplied in our day

See you healing broken bodies

While you fill these jars of clay

Except the Lord build the house

We labor in vain

And live for disappointment

Anguish and pain

Lord hear me when I call

Tear down oppositions walls

I want to touch your hand

And look upon your face

Lord hear me when I call

Jesus, You're Everything To Me

Jesus, Jesus

You are the King of kings

Jesus, Jesus

You're everything to me

You came unto your own

They turned you away

And opened the door for me

Salvation full and free

From your heart to mine

Jesus you're everything to me

Jesus, Jesus

You are the King of kings

Jesus, Jesus

You're everything to me

Rain Down

Rain down, rain down

Rain down your love on your people

Rain down, rain down

Rain down your love O Lord

Faithful and true

Is the word of our Lord

Your works all praise your name

God's mercy rains down

You are faithful and true

In your love we find our need

We who revere

And find hope in our Lord

Abide 'neath the shadow

Of the Almight

God will protect and keep us from harm

He will never leave us alone

Jesus, Your Love Broke Through

Save me and I'll be saved

Fill me and I'll be filled

Heal me and I'll be healed

To serve you

In the darkness of my night

You came to rescue me

In the pain of my heartache

Your light shown through

And the glory of your Son

Rained down on me

Filling this broken heart with your love

You saved me

You filled me

You healed me by your love

You saved me

You filled me

You healed me by your love

Jesus

Jesus your love broke through

What Can They Do

Thinking back over all the things

We've been through

And all the broken promises

I've made you

Of all the souls that are burning

Because I wouldn't obey

Lord, what will they do

Lord, what can they do

The fields are white to harvest

The laborers are few

The blood of the masses

Stains the hands of the few

And here I sit

My heart content

To warm this pew

Lord, what will they do

Lord, what can they do

Hear the call that is sounding

Throughout the land

Jesus Christ is coming

Fulfilling God's plan

Souls in untold numbers

Depart to the flames

Lord, what will they do

Lord, what can they do

You Are My God

You are my God

You are my King

You are my God

To you I sing

I lift up my voice

To declare your name

You are my God

You are my King

I will praise you

Lord I love you

I will glorify your name

In all the earth

I will praise you

Lord I love you

I will glorify your name

In all the earth

I lift up my voice

I lift up my praise

I lift up my hands

To your holy name

I lift up my voice

To declare your name

You are my God

You are my King

Broken Promises

Broken promises and shattered dreams

All my illusions they're vanishing

There are no answers that comfort me

But to know that you still love me

*Through life's disappointments

And the things that bring us pain

When things don't make sense at all

There's only one answer

That comforts me

Just to know that you still love me

*When this life is over

And they cover me with earth

Write these words upon my stone

The only thing that mattered

While I was on my way

Was to know that you loved me

Long Lonely Road

It's easy to close our eyes to the needs that are all around us - many that will never be met unless we personally get involved. Every state, every continent, every island that I've visited has them. Jesus told the parable of the "Good Samaritan" who took the time to meet the needs of someone who needed help in a desperate way. Can we do any less? There's a lot of heart ache around us that all too often we harden our senses toward and pretend we don't see. How would we feel if we were wearing their shoes?

It's been a long lonely road

Such a long lonely road

I've traveled down the low way

Of grief and pain

It's been a long lonely road

*Picking through a garbage can

In the alleys and streets

Or digging in a dumpster to find a bit to eat

You won't hear the words she's saying

The shame her lips have sealed

But her heart it cries out

For the world to hear

*You can see him in the lamplight

Cold and blue from the pain

Of another night on capitol streets

In the cold and in the rain

Who cares in the morning

If he's a number at the morgue

'Least he's not out begging

For a hand out at our door

Can you hear him cry

*She's hardly more than a child herself

With a child on the way

Victim of a drunkards wrath

Who thought it was play

Now she's headed out to who know's where

Seeking peace for her soul

And where she'll wind up

Nobody knows

Listen as she cries

It's a long lonely road

Such a long lonely road

I'm traveling down the low way

Of grief and pain

It's such a long lonely road
