"THE ARM OF THE LORD"

God's arm gives righteousness and power,And we can never lackHis might.

BENEDICTION

There is a glory in the midnight skies,A song to still all fear,A wondrous promise if we lift our eyes,A word if we will hear;For God's pure love is proving faith's increaseAnd bringing forth the Christ, the Prince of Peace.

NOT AS A BEGGAR

Not as a beggar did blind Bartimaeuscome to Christ Jesus to receive his sight,but, casting on the ground his beggar's garment,he ran in joyful haste to claim his right.
In your hand, the brush or pen,On the page, your name,But by His power the work is done;No lesser power claim.

HERE WHERE I STAND

Here where I stand is holy ground,No matter what the mortal seeming;In every place God's love is found.

TAKE COURAGE

However cloaked with fearOr sad it may appear,No physical eventIs reason to lament;It is a battle to be won, not lost,A darkly flowing river to be crossed.

THE ISLAND OF THE INNOCENT

The island of the innocentIs bathed by quiet waters,The planets of the firmamentShine on its sons and daughters.
