I BELONG TO YOU


Spirit dressed in flesh
Command and light comes forth
You Breathe, You speak, You touch
New life is born

How faithful Your promises prove Lord
From the time that I wake and my feet touch the ground
You bless the works of my hands
And continually overcome every doubt

Thank you God for this skin to feel things in
Time spent in the presence of true friends
Sunshine on my face, thankfulness, and the taste of good fruit
A call received unexpectedly and reports of good news

Thank You for the gentle breezes and times by the fire
Hugs and kisses of children
Sleeping and waking up outside
Conversations and inspirations that come late at night

Sitting in the dirt, watching the sun go down
Midnight running in the rain
Flying over distant places and mountain heights
For being my ever present help and abundant life

In season and out, through every moment of change
Thank You for leading me God and making it very plain
That You know me, love me, and long to show me
I belong to You…

FIREWEED


Life in times and seasons
Nothing is ever what it seems
Proof of heavens hands
Glory of God on display in hungry needs
For Precious Beauty Wild
Fire of shining smiles
Love dancing in a field
Naked truth untouched freedom yields
The fragrance of Love's patient response
Calling forth those things which are not
Blowing in on the winds of change
Fearing for nothing embracing pain
Washed by the water of eternal life
Healing the heavy heart by
Making the riches of His glory known
Wild Beauty of a heart - ever longing for home.
