I AM THE ONE WHO CAME

I am the One who came
To set your soul free.
I am he One who came
To die on Calvary's tree.

I am the One who came
To share your heavy load.
I an the One who came
I've walked the self-same road.

I am the One who came
To calm all your fears
I am the One you came
To dry all your tears.

I am the  One who came
To wash away your sin
I am the One who came
I will return again!

IS HE CALLING ME?

Is He calling me?
Is it His voice I hear
Or is it the world
That I hold so dear?

Is He calling me?
Do I hear His voice?
He has given me
Freedom of choice.

Is He calling me?
There's so many voices I hear
All clambering for attention
But only One will calm my fear.

Is He calling
From a world that's gone astray
Yes He is calling me
To be HIs voice today!

CASTING OUR CARES

Casting our cares
Is easy to do
But leaving there
Is hard for me and you.

Casting our cares
When not sure of tomorrow
He can't ease our burden
When troubles we borrow.

Casting our cares
On the Savior, you see
He wants to handle things
For you and for me.

Casting our cares
Anxiety and fear
Acknowledge our weakness
He will always be near.

DO NOT TRY TO FATHOM MY WAYS

Do not try to fathom My ways
My thoughts are higher, you see
I give you an invitation
To experience Me.

Do not try to fathom My ways
Taste and see that I'm good
I am concerned about your life
And want you to be all you should.

Do not try to fathom My ways
Know the I answer each prayer
But it is in My timing
I see the burdens you bear.

Do not try to fathom My ways
Who adversity strikes, leann Me
You won't aways understand
But My love for you I decree!

REST IN ME A WHILE

Rest in Me a while
You have climbed mountains steep
And I see all your struggles
My promises I keep.

Rest in Me a while
When the way seems uncertain to you
Take the time to rest in Me
I know what to do.

Rest in Me a while
My presence is with you
I want you to find peace
In everything you do.

Rest in Me a while
Choose to be joyful this day
I am your hiding place
I am the truth, the way!

CONQUERING YOUR FEARS

Conquering your fears
Is not easy to do
When there are people
Who would hurt you.

Conquering your fears
When money is sparse
And you are alone
And afraid of the dark.

Conquering your fears
When your faith is weak
And it's really hard
God's favor to seek.

Conquering your fears
All of this God does know
And He will be with you
Whoever you go!

UNCOMFORTABLE ANSWERS

Uncomfortable answers
May come to view
When God does not answer
The way we want Him to.

Uncomfortable answers
God is not Santa, you see
Passing out gifts
For you and for me.

Uncomfortable answers
Not a Genie is He
To fulfill dreams and wishes
That never can be.

Uncomfortable answers
God is all giving
And wants only the best
For our earthly living.

Uncomfortable answers
Are blessings in disguise
From an all knowing God
Who is loving and wise!

And he's so very proud
Of all she can achieve.

Grows up all too soon

Focus on the unseen

But I am with you
In everything you do.

Focus on the unseen
Not the tangible you see
But if you look closely
In nature you'll see Me.

When you pray I'm there
And you'll know I'm real
When I answer your prayer.

Focus on the unseen
Miracles happen every day
People's lives are changed
When they follow My Way!

When life is difficult to overcome
Trust in Jesus Christ

When doubt comes your way
Just call on Jesus
And bow your head and pray.

You must have no regrets, you see
You must forgive yourself
For Christ has forgiven thee.

Jesus is the truth and the way
And there is no other plan
Whereby you can be saved today!

But the gentle Lamb.

The One on whom we can depend
Our deliverer and comforter
Whose will we cannot bend.

He is love, mercy and full of grace
His majesty we cannot comprehend
Until we see Him face to face.

The truth of who God is
He is the God-Head three
Father, Son and Spirit
Only He can set mankind free!

No matter how great the loss
It will never be the magnitude
That Jesus suffered on the cross!

YOUR HIGH CALLING

Your high calling
Do you hear Jesus calling you?
Is there a constant prod
In what you do?

Lay aside your own goal
And God's plan for you
Will surely unfold.

May not be fortune or fame
It just may be
That you wear His Name.

Your high calling
Is living at its best
So don't ever give up
And settle for something less!

As you ravel down the road
Facing sorrow and strife.

And you have no strength to climb
Remember God's promises

With new faith and hope
Knowing that God give you

WHEN YOU'RE IN A RUSH

When you're in a rush
There so much you pass by
A beautiful sunrise
Or the wind's sweet, sigh.

When you're in a rush
You may fail to see
Flowers blooming along the way
Or the blessings God showers on thee.

When you're in a rush
And you have no time for prayer
You will feel so alone
And your soul will feel so bare.

When you're in a rush
Stop...the world will not fail to turn
Take things a little slower
You'll find the peace you yearn!
