PRAISE PSALM

Inspired by Psalm 8

Lost in wonder
I look into skies
Lost in wonder
Lifted high in praise
Submitting myself to your glory
This great and mighty universe.

Wondrous to behold
Only a nano percent understood
Is as nothing compared to you
Beyond all knowing
But choosing to reveal yourself
In Jesus of Nazareth.

Beyond time and space
Present in time and space
Submitting to our limitations
That we may rise in glory
To the life of endless worship
Lost in wonder
Lifted high in praise.

PSALM of ADORATION

Jesus the light of the world has come.
A gift to all mankind
ADORE HIM
Shining, beaming, radiating God’s Glory,
Sadness into laughter,
Sorrow into gladness,
ADORE HIM

The lame will walk, run, and be healed,
Those that are bound will be set free.
Chains unleashed,
Sins forgiven,
ADORE HIM.

The warmth and glow of your holy Spirit enfolds us
Into a rainbow of trust and love,
Enveloping us in the everlasting arms,
A trust that will stand,
A trust that never gives up.
ADORE HIM.

We stand amazed in your presence,
Now and for evermore,
No greater gift than this.
ADORE HIM.

 Jan Whitehead.

Train moves me swiftly
Arriving meeting loving
God moves us onward

Spires upward towering
Open church doors and warm hearts
New uplifting blood

Abram journeys on
At the great tree of Moreh
Rustling leaves whisper

Spiritual voyage
Trust belief and faithfulness
Blessing of the soul

Barbara Rolison

 

Without this light there would only be darkness
Without His Birth, there would be no Hope
Without His Life, we wouldn’t know His Love
Without His death, we wouldn’t know how much He sacrificed
Without His Resurrection, there would be no future in the world to come. But, Praise God there is!
Forever and Ever,
Amen

God said, ‘let them laugh,
not a laugh that derides
but the laugh that births
my creative love,
flourishing imagination.’
God said, ‘Let them question,
not with words of fear
but with word that delves my creative breath,
the harvest throughout time.’
God said, ‘Let them journey,
not a way that confuses
but the way that beckons
towards him whose hands
were scored for Creation’s sake.’
