The lessons of my life flowed like a river
Winding through days, months and years;
I rescued a few but missed so many
From the currents as I saw them passing;
They drowned in a daze of my ignorance,
Unwanted and ignored but yet abiding.
I fish them now from the pool of my memory
And give them life everlasting.
- CATHRYNE ALLEN
I look to Thee to lift me up
When into depths of sorrow
I sink and comfort cannot find;
I look to Thee to lift me up
When nothing makes sense
In my troubled finite mind.
I look to Thee to lift me up
When forsaken I happen to be;
I look to Thee to lift me up
When trials seek to swallow me.
I will look to Thee to lift me up
When farewell I have to say,
Lift me up with tender mercies
In thine arms to gently lay.

I would give you the world
If I knew how
I would lovingly paint you rainbows
Amid the softest clouds
All the worldly riches I would place into your hands
If I had the might to so manifest
But since I lack the power to make your world complete
I give you my heart in recompense and lay it at your feet
- Cathryne Allen
I carried my cross to the foot of Calvary
While you carried yours to the top
I cried bitter tears over the injustices of my life
While you bled valiantly for all that was lost
I carried my hurts like a badge
So scornfully proud and spiritually poor
While you rose to the heights of your exalted throne
Perfected, ennobled and infinitely more
You are so high
And I am so low
I consent to climb to Calvary's top
I consent to be lifted to your throne
