Be Still and Know
When I wake in the morning
and I give my day to Him,
I'm secure with the
knowledge that my future is my friend.
As I walk along Life's
way, I often turn to Him and say,
Is there something more?
For just as I think I've
got it all, I stumble and fall
Over a treasure I've
never known before.
So now that you have
my heart and full attention
Would You care to mention
something new?
Be still and know that I am God.

Thanksgiving at the Father's Knee
Thank You Lord Jesus
for loving me,
for the love that lured
me
to the Father's knee.
Where the treasures
of heaven
are poured over me
Where the fruits of
Your spirit
are poured into me.
And thank You Lord for
teaching me
the secret of loving
unconditionally.
Thank You Lord for bringing
me
to the truth of my reality
Found only here at the
throne . . . at the Father's knee.
When I took Your hand
I didn't understand
what ecstacy awaited
me.
When I took Your hand
I didn't know where we would go.
I only saw a chance
to know the perfect love I'd longed for so.
I followed You and You
led me to
a special place prepared
by You
A place for me for eternity
. . .
at our Father's knee.
By His Grace,
