Glory to Him Alleluia!

In the dawn of His amazing grace,

Every single morning I rejoice,

My heart is packed with hope,

My soul rests in deep reverence to Him,

Only He who watches all the earth I fear,

New life flowing within me,

New joy springing from within,

A soft shower of His new mercies,

Beholding His countless blessings;

All free from Him the giver of life,

Such a wealthy man I am,

Seated right inside the I Am,

Such I would never have afforded,

Wealth that He with love freely grants,

He fills the earth with his unfailing love,

Glory to Him Alleluia!

In the dawn of His amazing grace,

Every single day He sustains me,

In humility I bow to Him the trustworthy,

In joyful praise I lift my hands to Him,

King of kings He is majestic,

I'll lift my voice to glorify His name,

I'll worship Him with all my heart,

I'll lift my eyes to rejoice in His glory,

I will celebrate His great deeds,

With all my soul I will rejoice,

Shunning all anxiety I will be calm,

By prayer and petition I'll come,

With thanks I'll request from Him,

Every single evening He restores me,

He fills the earth with his unfailing love,

Glory to Him Alleluia!

God deserves all the glory and praise.

In Christ's Indestructible hope!

There will be tough days in life;

Tougher days than ever known,

There will be dark nights at times;

Longer and darker than the rest,

There will be cold winters;

Colder and frostier than ever before,

There will be high mountains;

Too high to climb by our own strength,

There will be strong storms;

So strong for our life boats to sail across,

There will be moments of pains;

More intense n' hurting than ever imagined,

There will be suffering;

More painful and despairing than any other,

There will be days of fears;

Fierce and scaring than darkness,

There will one day be death for all;

The mention of which all stands in awe,

But! 

In Christ's Indestructible hope:

There will be no single day;

His Grace will be hidden from his own,

There will be not a single night;

Darker than His everlasting n'saving light,

There will be no single winter;

Too cold to experience the warmth of God's love,

There will be no mountain;

Too big to move; for faith like a mustard seed,

There will be no moments of pain;

So painful for his kind mercies to console,

There will be not a single storm;

Too strong for Him to calm when we cry to Him,

There will be no pain;

Too painful beyond his consoling mercies,

There will be not a single struggle;

Upon which His helping arm will grow weaker,

Not even in the fiercest of fears;

Shall He ever forsake those who hope in Him,

And even the dreaded death;

He's made it a simple gate along the eternal path.

Solitude!

Yes! I'm on that path!

At the sharpest edge of my bluntness,

At the bluntest edge of my sharpness,

At the loudest point of my silence,

At the most silent point of my loudness,

At the finest point of my narrows of life,

At the narrowest point of my widths of life,
At the rarest visited yet the most longed for path,

Yes! I'm on that path!

I'm gonna cry out all my laughter,

I'm gonna laugh out all my cry,

I love this point yet at most I dread it,

The physical eyes in surrender to those of heart,

At least I hear the rest in the world least,

Yet, I still can hear all clearly in my inner self,
When brokenness of heart hosts the entire world,

Yes! I'm on that path!

When the beauty of life is at the brightest,

Yet the ugliness of the same helplessly stares,  

Sitting at the most shallow end of the outside,

Yet at the deepest end of my inner life pool,

Seeking to ignore the entire noises in the out;

Finding the concentration of the entire noises in the in,
Re-igniting the servant's cups of love, hope and faith

Yes! I'm on that path!

The path seemingly scaring from the outside;

The path leading continually to full strength,

The path where doubt and hope merge,

The path where fear and faith wrestle,

The path where the I inside the rest is most absent,

The path where the rest inside I are most present,

The path where Alpha and Omega is most audible,

Yes! I'm on that path!

The path where I can quietly read my life script,

The path where I faithfully discern His will and plan,

The path where His script joyfully overtakes mine,

The path where my heart He tunes with love for all,

The path where my repentant heart is consoled,

The path where His love fuels His mission in me,

The glorious and amazing path of solitude.

Yes I'm on that path!

I nowadays try to have some deliberate time in solitude and I have found it very helpful for a healthy physical and spiritual living. Hope you too will make a similar discovery.

Come Oh Lord!

Unto this evergreen land you sent me; come,

Unto this land where you are Lord; shine,

Unto this land founded on your reign; rule,

Unto this formerly great land; restore faith,

Unto the dry bones; speak life,

Unto the extinguished flames of hope; reignite,

Unto the weak and exhausted; strengthen,

Unto the lame and wounded; heal,

Unto the blinded; shine your light,

Lord; come to the hearts of many,

Lord; come to your people in Britain,

Come and rebuild the broken walls,

Let your power be experienced,

Let your forgiveness be realized,

Let your salvation gift be received,

Unto this evergreen land you sent me; come.

A prayer for Britain.

Walks of life

In the walks of life there will be seasons,

Every season will have its climates differing,

Every season will have situations competing,

Every season will  have friends come others go,

Every season will  have family yeses and nos, 

Every season a time to laugh out n' to tear in,

Every season will have it's ups and downs,

Every season will come and go; Seasonal!

Every season will find me and you, but how?

Every season will leave Him unchanged,

Every season will leave Him unmoved,

Every season is just part of His straight line,

Every season is under His power and might,

Every season we will need to walk in Him,

Every season we better walk with the nonseasonal,

Every season we will be safe in Him n' His will,

In the walks of life there will be seasons,

In Him we will last beyond a season and the season.

Love will! Love can! Love shall! Turn things round.

The world mourns in deep sorrow and pain,

Her people are deeply wounded and broken,

Their souls are fully dried and thirsty of life,

Their hearts are aching in pain and distress,

Their lives are wandering and lost in fear,

Their hopes are tiny yet still continue to diminish,

Their minds are lost, confused and cheated,

In a world drowning in unforgiving hatred and revenge,

In a world robbed of peace, joy and hope by sin,

In such life, one word is the question and the answer,

There is one living word though;

There is one living action though;
Through His Grace Love lives forever,

If our hearts can journey to theirs the rest will obey.

Love will! Love can! Love shall!; Turn things round.

Love them unconditionally for similarly He did it for us,

Love then; only then we can reach and touch their hearts,

Love them; only then we can know and understand their pain,

Love them; only the we can remember and visit their situations,

Love them; only then we can think and pray for their lives,

Love them; only then we can reach and change their pain,

Love them; only then we can be like and represent Jesus,

Love them; only then we can be accepted and accept them,

Love them; only then we can experience His Kingdom on earth,

There is one living word though;

There is one living action though;
Through His Grace Love lives forever,

Love Him, love them, love us, live love,

If our hearts can journey to theirs the rest will obey.

I See you Lord..

Every where ...

Every what ...

Every how ...

Every when ...

They all decree,

In openness of my eyes,

In openness of my heart,

In openness of my mouth,

I see you Lord,

Deep within myself,

In the entire creation,

Indeed where are you not?

No! Not in a single place Lord,

I see you everywhere,

You see me everywhere,

How majestic is your Name.
