A CHILD'S HYMN Charles Dickens


Hear my prayer, O heavenly Father,
Ere I lay me down to sleep;
Bid Thy angels, pure and holy,
Round my bed their vigil keep.

My sins are heavy, but Thy mercy
Far outweighs them, every one;
Down before Thy cross I cast them,
Trusting in Thy help alone.

Keep me through this night of peril
Underneath its boundless shade;
Take me to Thy rest, I pray Thee,
When my pilgrimage is made.

None shall measure out Thy patience
By the span of human thought;
None shall bound the tender mercies
Which Thy Holy Son has bought.

Pardon all my past transgressions,
Give me strength for days to come;
Guide and guard me with Thy blessing
Till Thy angels bid me home.

You’re Always There for Me By Joanna Fuchs


When the world comes crashing in
And chaos rules my mind,
I turn my heart to you, Lord,
And pure, sweet peace I find.
You lift me out of trouble
You comfort me in pain;
You nourish, heal and cleanse me,
Like cool, refreshing rain.
In times of joy and bliss,
When things are going right,
You lift me even higher,
And fill me with delight.
You listen to my prayers;
You hear my every plea;
I’m safe because I know
You’re always there for me.

I am loved

By the assurace in your truth,
I feel loved!

By prayer when were aloof,
I see God above!

High fives and listening ears,
I have a friend!
Anger shown from my tears and your soft hand,
I can depend.

A caress upon my face,
A kiss upon my lips,
Your fingers around my hand,
Your strong arms holding me safe and warm,
All tells me I am loved!!

Just be strong, Hold on

whenever you're down and in the blue
whenever you want to break down and cry
Just Be Strong, Just Hold on
whenever you feel like you're going crazy like you could kill someone
Just Be Strong, Just Hold On
whenever you feel you're not going to continue standing your ground
Just be Strong, Just Hold On
no matter what don't let your guard down
if your heart tells you someone's going to walk over you, believe
just be strong,Just Hold On
whenever your mind tells you noone cares or loves you don't believe
and don't let antone tell you otherwise
Just Be Strong, Just Hold On

Changing

I look into the mirror and who do I see?
I see thoughts and worries looking back at me.

I look into the mirror and who do I see?
I see chaos on the verge of insanity.

I look into the mirror and who do I see?
A kindness rejected by a selfish plea.

I look into the mirror and who do I see?
Anger, always anger turning into me.

I look at the reflection and what is there?
A person in changing because she cares.

Never Fail!

As the days go by I wonder why,
I have not failed.
In my mind as things unwind,
I have failed.

Yet God keeps me going. I keep on sowing,
Over what is prevailed.

He gives me signs. I am not blind,
With what he reveals.

With what he give, I know I'll live
And I will never fail!

Honesty

To be peeved is to be deceived,
    By ourselves and to others!

We must hold to ourselves honesty.
    To be truthful to our sisters and brothers.

This is a hard task to conceive,
    But with our hearts we must believe.

That with faith we can be true,
    so that we will know what to do.

So the answer to our lives,
    Is having honesty to contrive.

Day Dream or Reality?

With a summer breeze you sing a song.
   Praying this day will be long!

You play with flowers,
   Passing each hour.

While soaking your feet in the stream,
   You concoct a day dream!

Your flying in the air!
   How, you just dont care!
Your just here!

Sounds of the Sea

Open your mind,
   Let things unwind!

Open your heart!
   To a brand new start!

Let your soul sore,
   From sky to sea floor!

Open your eyes and look around!
   Give way to earth's sound.

Let your spirit be free!
   To the sound of the sea!!

He see's He hears

I see a tear drop like a grain of salt falling as a token!

   Jesus' word must be spoken.

Time sets in and more tokens fall!
   Jesus answers all his calls!

A mother grieves for her child's request!
   A child maimed wishing he could be best.

A father woes for bread on his table.
   Working hard yet don't know if he's able.

A young woman divorced, alone, and barren.
   Wondering why she cant stop hope, why she cant stop caring!

A young man in college not knowing who to trust.
   Trying to do right and not given to lust.

Tears they cry, tears that fall like a grain of salt.
   Each grain turning into thousands, thousands of tokens.
Tokens of prayers, spoken!

And Jesus hears them all!
   Because he answers all his calls!

Summer Days

With a summer breeze,
you sing a song
praying that days are long.

You play with flowers
passing each hour.

While soaking you feet
in the cool stream
you concoct a day dream.

Your flying in the air
how you just don't care
because your just there!
