God’s Holy Chalice

No Comments

God’s holy chalice
Created in Him
Pouring out light
Releasing the dim

Salvation’s young child
Forever in love
Singing of angels
Songs from above

Surrounded in joy
Living waters flow
Sorrows are fleeting
Love and peace grow

God’s holy chalice
Flows from His Heart
Children in Oneness
In grace, never part

From the Depths

From the depths of my soul
Child cries out in pain
Fill me with your love, dear Lord
Flood me with your rain

Bear my holy sorrows
Dear Savior, show me how
Though walking strong and tall
I need your love right now

Grace of new surrenders
I pray you’ll hear my plea
Take me to the warmth of one
Eyes open, let me see

Living Water

Dive into new life
Saving waters are here
Let go of your sorrows
Choose hope and draw near

Light of the world
Offering His hand
Pick up your mat
Choose grace, take a stand

Healing instant come
Father, show Your face
Kingdom of God here
Filling this holy place

Walking, breathing, loving

Breath of life
Winds of change
Pulling deep
Love remains

Silently wandering
Stark dry plains
Breathing out sorrow
Love still remains

Answer the calling
Walking alone
Dry desert heat
Crumbling bones

Find the new sunrise
Enjoy the new day
Sorrowful journey
Kept love at bay

Breathe in more deeply
Hold it some more
Counting the moments
One two three four

Open your eyes
Horizons once lost
Take the next breath
Whatever the cost

Walk on beside me
Pray for the rain
Feel the first sprinkles
Let love remain

Tonight’s Prayer

Father God,

Fill me with the love that you would have me share
Remove from me the thoughts of loss and despair
Take from me all attachments, leave me bare
Send choirs of heavenly angels to lead me there

You are all I desire
I seek you and you offer your hand
Kind and gentle forever
Healing power to share with the land

Divinity stands before me
Thoughts of dawning mystery
Releasing doubt and misery
Faith flowing forth abundantly

I love you, God
All I am I offer to you
My life is no longer my own
Set me on the path you choose

Guide me, Lord, to clarity
Remove all I believe
Replace my thoughts with you
Merging in sacred and holy love

Thank you for this wondrous day
Of joys and sorrows and lessons presented
Gifts of all the world by your hand
Perfect peace is at your command

Set me in my place, dear Lord
Let me feel your holy embrace
Restore the smile to my face
Let joy and laughter my tears replace

All that I am
And all that I’ll be
Is in you, dear God
As you are in me

And so it is…

Amen.
