The Beauty Within

I wish you could see the beauty within,

I wish you could see what God does, my friend;

Inside you heart where the Spirit dwells,
Has been covered by lies that the enemy tells;

Lies of who you are and who God designed you to be;
Yes lies that you believe. How I wish you could see!

Before you speak lowly of yourself,
Do me a favor. Put that enemy on the shelf!

Put in its place, the light of the Lord;
Do not live another day by the sword.

Careful the words that you say,
For they have much power much to your dismay.

Be kind to yourself and to others you meet;
Delight yourself in the Lord and soon you will see.

Be obedient in God and forgiving, you see;
For this is truly what allows you to be set free.

On this journey that we call life,
There will always be some trouble and strife.

But take comfort in knowing that even though we all have sinned;
That God’s promises are true, and the Light shone the beauty within!

In One God I Entrust

I thank Thee for this day.
I know that whatever may come my way,
I will entrust those things that matter most
to the Father, Son and Holy Ghost.

All my worries and woes are heard on high;
It is Your precious love I can not deny.

In one God I will entrust my family and friends;
and I will thank him for forgiving my sins.

Yes, I entrust all those that are so dear
to the One God who is always near.

I trust you Oh God with the things that matter most
and I give them to You dear Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
