SEEKING HIS FACE

 




Some days, Father, I cannot bear,

The absence of Your touch.

I cannot wait for Your embrace

That I have missed so very much.

 

In this abyss of worldly darkness

I stumble but I fall into the arms of Him

Who lifts me higher than I can go.

 

I fly to You, Father, on my wings of faith,

I sail through stormy skies,

Seeking for Thy face.

Look Father, no hands!

Only trust in these strong arms

Of my Saviour’s loving grace.

THE VICTORY

 



As Golgotha raged and tore

Your flesh without mercy

The Garden sprang anew,

As from every drop You spilt

New flowers came into bloom.

How pitiful the cross that claimed You

Not knowing it sent a God to a

Darkened tomb!

THE ONE

 



He is my Sovereign,

He is the king of all kings,

He is my wings of protection,

He is my everything.

MY EVERYTHING

 




I looked up to You

When in my beginning.

I saw Your strength,

Your care, Your undying love,

And I knew only You

Could make up for what

I alone could not do.

 

You are my Shepherd,

You are my King,

You are my Holy Grail,

You are my everything.

HOW GREAT THOU ART

 



How commendably patient Thou art

With the slow progress of

My proud heart;

How great Thy wisdom,

How great Thy mercy,

How great Thy love

That fills my joyful heart;

How very great Thou art!

AT CALVARY

 



Today as I communed with Thee

You took me all the way to Calvary.

My heart stood still, the lessons came,

And taught me what in words I could not name.

I bow the knee and in thanks ascend to Thee

For all I learnt at Calvary.

RIVER OF MY TEARS

 




You seemed so far away,
My hope of rescue grew into fears,
Oh how my heart rejoiced
When I found You
 in the river of my tears!
