So Near…So Far (The Inner…or Outer)
The soldiers were gambling
For Jesus’ garments to win
Concerned with the outer
So blind to their sin.
Be Dead to Sin
Our repentance, often shallow
More remorse, and regret
Not turning and fleeing
From pet sins, that beset.
Keys to Prayer
Our High Priest, the LORD Jesus
Who taught us to pray
By His Spirit, in our weakness
Intercedes, leads the way.
Boldness and Courage
Recall, God has commanded
We be strong, of good courage
Are not afraid, nor dismayed
Nor are we discouraged.
Church Prayer Meeting
So little energy and time
Few invest in prayer
’Tis no great surprise
God’s blessings aren’t there.
Walk with the Lord
Take hold of me, LORD
Completely possess
Come fill every part
Transform me, and bless.
Use Me, for Your Glory
Do sanctify, purify
This vessel of clay
And use for Your glory
Your plans, each day.
Trust God, in All
So, trust Him in all
Seek God, through His Word
Delight in His presence
Obey daily what’s heard.
The Fig Tree
Not our knowledge, our ‘leaves’
Our sin, we can’t cover
For God sees our hearts
Any sweet fruit, to discover?
Take Time to be Holy
In God’s Vine, keep abiding
As His branch, bearing fruit
Stay dependent, keep praying
Christ-likeness, your pursuit.
