Crab Apples-10/05

    The smell of sweet, wet, fresh cut grass was running through the air as we run down the Street towards the park. Dark stained wood, strong off white nylon rope, and the cool metal handles await every child arriving. A line longer than a giraffe’s neck lay behind the glider. There are creams [...]

So Many Tears

Laying on my bed
Tears soaking my pillow
The pain I feel inside
So many tears, so many nights
Only one knows my pain
He’s here for me
Why is it so hard
To just give Him my pain
Laying on my bed
My head on a wet pillow
Not knowing I could cry so much
So many tears, so many nights
Only one knows my pain
He’s [...]

Oh Savior, Do I Strive-10/04

Do I strive to know thee
Do I strive to serve thee
Do I strive to show thy love
To those around me
Do I stand as thy witness
Do I stand by thy side
Oh Savior, do I strive
To be thy friend
Oh Savior, will you help me
As I learn and grow
As I strive to serve thee
With thy love
Oh help me [...]

His Footprints-2002

My child, my child, please follow.
Please follow, follow, follow.
My child when the tide comes,
His footprints will fade away,
So follow, follow close behind Him.
Follow close behind Him all the way home,
Home to your Father in Heaven.
If you need His help,
For the footprints have gone away.
My child just call Him.
Just go to your knees in prayer,
And ask [...]

My Father is Here-4/05

As a child I know,
My Father is here,
To guide and to love me,
All the way home.
As a teen I see,
My Father is here,
To encourage and comfort me,
All the way home.
As an adult I cry,
My Father is here,
To hold and to heal me,
All the way home.
As a Mother I hear,
My Father is here,
To hold and to [...]

My Child-2001

My Child, my child, Please come with me.
I want thee to meet someone very special.
He’s kind, nice and sweet.
He’s loving and forgiving.
He has the best smile around,
No other could compare.
He loves you and He knows you,
But He needs to hear you.
He says you used to talk to Him
And tell Him everything,
But now that you have [...]

Summer Adventure-4/05

The smell of sweet, wet, fresh cut grass was running through the air as we run down the street towards the park. Dark stained wood, strong off white nylon rope, and the cool metal handles await every child arriving. A line longer than a giraffe’s neck lay behind the glider. There are [...]

Fear-10/06

Fear is growing in my heart
Constantly I try to push it out
 
Alone I push, struggling all the way
Trying so hard, and seaming to fail
 
Suddenly I feel hands with mine
They seam to push harder than I
 
Fear slowly leaves, love fills my heart
My Savior’s hands, with mine, keep fear far away

A Child Went Forth-2/06

A child went forth day by day
Smiling at all she saw
One day some friends came
Unloading all their problems
The child’s shoulders weighted down
Heavy with problems she could not fix
Yet still the child went forth day by day
Smiling at all she sawHiding behind a mask
No one looking into her eyes
The child went forth day by day
Smiling at [...]

A Hard Decision-6/05

As the rod is there in front of me
Why is the decision so hard
Do I choose the world with all vanities
Or do I choose the narrow path
I know what is true, why can’t I move
Taking a step towards the rod
Looking back all the glories of the world
Why is the decision so hard
Do I choose vain [...]
