To me Lord You are a gift of eternal sunshine
Which fills my world with its radiant light
You are the stars which shine brightly above
Lending their eternal brilliance to the night

You are the things I find my heart treasures
Especially those which make me smile each day
I alone know all the reasons I feel this way
Why I find my heart continually carried away

You forgave me my master and brought me home
To that special place from which I had strayed
You washed me Lord making me wholesomely clean
Providing a welcome place in your grace to stay

You forgave my sins which once had haunted me
Giving me a new chance to really begin to live
That day when you freed me from sinful bondage
With Your treasured words of love…I forgive.

(January 1, 1977)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Matt:16:14-15
For if you forgive other people when they sin against
you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But
if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father
will not forgive your sins.

Psalm 32:5
Then I acknowledged my sin to you and did not cover
up my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my
transgressions to the LORD.” And you forgave the
guilt of my sin.

Psalm113.3

With your love, you love me,
With your strength, you
Strengthen me

By your living word I am
Given wisdom, faith, and
Knowledge with which to
Guide my ways

I have need of your love
Every moment where sin
Has a chance to enter,
Where worldly lust has
A chance to rise

I need your living word to
Guide my feet, for your word,
Is surely an illuminating light
For my path

For alone, I will fall alone,
I will stumble alone, and
My life would be given into
Worldly sin

Without you, my mind might seek
To do the evil which might breed
In a lustful heart

I cannot stand alone without
Your power, your grace, your
Love, and wisdom to guide me

My bones would become brittle
As a result of sin, and my body
Would become sickly falling prey
To worldly decay

My youthfulness might disappear
Enabling sin to have its way
with me if you are not near to me

I shall age before those who
Are older in years, for I will
Become old and disabled, my eyes
Blind and my hands feeble

I will be lost in the worlds
Darkness, and madness of sin,
If you my Lord are, not my rock,
my sure foundation

For only through you can one
Gain eternal life, an eternal
Gift Which shall endure forever

Only in you is paradise found
For your love is the one true
love which inhabits heavens
paradise forever within itself

I have such a great need of you
To be my God, my Lord and my
Master, to supplement me all of
My days spiritually

I beg for the crumbs from your
Table of life, so that my spirit
May have Its hunger filled…

That I may always be a part of you
My master, as you are inside of me
Filling me with your lasting love

So that you will never say to me
Again, If you love me, you will
Do all my commands…

And I will reply gratefully to you
Lord, “I will do as you command and
even more.”

So that when my restoration is made
Complete, you will seat me in the
Presence of my brothers and sisters…

Where together we will praise you Lord
Morning, noon, and evening with Joyful
Psalms of praise.

(Written, October 1976)

Psalm 98-1
A psalm. Sing to the LORD a new song, for he
has done marvelous things; his right hand and
his holy arm has worked salvation for him.

Psalm 28: 7-8

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my
heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart
leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
The LORD is the strength of his people, a
fortress of salvation for his anointed one.
