In the Grip of God’s Love
Grip my heart, with Your Truth
I am loved, beyond measure
Despite all my failures
In Christ, I’m You’re treasure.
My Hiding Place and Shelter
You are my hiding place
And also my shield
I hope in Your Word
There Your love, revealed.
Be Secure in God’s Love
For His love in Christ Jesus
Our Lord, is love eternal
We are forever, in His hand
More than secure, His love encircles.
Are We Poor in Spirit?
Are we humble and lowly
Or proud, self-serving
Are exalting ourself
Or submissive, subserving?
Poor in Spirit?
Are so weary of self
All the efforts you make
Self-reliance, self-ambitions
All fleshly, vain mistakes.
All Soldiers, No Abstainers!
Life’s not a cruise-ship, but a battleship
We’re not observers, but partakers
And not passive, but active
Bear God’s armor, no abstainers!
What Love is This?
But ‘Agape’ love
The heart of God’s nature
Is selfless, sacrificial
There is no love greater.
Are You a Dreamer?
Yet our Master, Creator
Set limits, in love
Has given us guidance
The true Captain, above.
Desperate to Change?
So, friend if you’re yearning
God’s blessing and change
Come wrestle with God
‘til your old life’s exchanged.
Wrestling with God
There at Penuel, he met God
Truly saw, face to face
How he struggled, prevailed
Saw God’s mercy and grace.
