There's a Garden

There's a garden that I go to
Where the flowers bloom so bright.
I go there in the morning
As the sun shines forth its light.

The dew upon the petals
Glisten softly in the morn.
The blooms are heavy laden
On the plants which they adorn.

I go to seek my Savior,
He is waiting there to be,
My Listener and my Counselor
Of the day set forth for me.

I tell Him of my worries,
I tell Him of my woes,
He listens so intently
As I mention all my foes.

Then He whispers e'er so softly
As I lean in close to hear,
"You know I'm always with you
So, My Child, relax, don't fear."

"I have the power to heal you,
I have the power to save,
I am the Mighty Victor
Of the world My Father made.

There's nothing that's impossible
For Me to tangle with,
Please know that I will fight for you
With each and every breath.

So take My hand and follow Me
Along the garden way,
Come drink the Living Waters,
It retores you day by day.

And I'll be right here with you
Ever watching, ever near,
To hold you and to pick you up,
To dry your every tear."

I thank my Savior Jesus
For His love and for His care.
I praise Him and I honor Him
As I often do in prayer.

I thank my Savior Jesus
For the gift He's given me,
And I leave the garden hopeful
Of the day set forth for me.

To You Who Satisfies

Why do I feel the need for praise
For things that I have done?
It only brings me sadness
When I find that there is none.

It's You, O Lord, who satisfies
My heart and sets me free.
So why do I continue to look
To man for what I need?

You love me unconditionally,
A love that knows no end.
My hope should be to hear You say,
"My Child, good job, well done."

O Father please forgive the pride
That's welled inside of me,
And help me live for You alone
For treasures heavenly.

And Father please direct my path,
Please open up my eyes,
To Jesus and the Spirit,
To You who satisfies.

KEEP ME

Keep me in Your will today,
O Father God I pray;
And strengthen those I bring to You
With love, and peace, and faith.

‘Tis to Your throne room Lord I come
To ask these things anew;
For Christ has died so I could come
Directly to You.

It’s easy Lord to turn from You,
To walk as in old days;
To try to do the things I must
Without Christ’s better ways.

So keep me in Your will today,
May all my prayers be true;
That through Your wisdom, power, and love,
I’ll serve and honor You.

Not to say that all of my S.I.N.G. sisters are not special to me, but Sharon has been there for me more than once in the past when it comes to all this computer busniness. Come to find out our home towns are just minutes from each other. I can't wait to get the chance to meet her face to face. She's a very special woman who is full of talents from the Lord. Love you Sister!
