Overwhelmed

I overwhelm you with My favor
You are overwhelmed with My love
When life at times overtakes you
Find My grace to overcome/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above/

Not by might, nor by power
But by My Spirit says the Lord
Once defeated now victorious
Standing in redeeming love/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above/

By faith Your word refining
Endurance taught my soul to long
Your perfect will birthed by Your Spirit
Steadfast love my great reward/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above

Reflection: A Life Walk

Could I have known the road ahead
Lay priceless jewels for me alone
Placed by God no one could take
All for me His treasure safe/

Step by step He gave me strength
Taught me how to bend and break
Faith renewed time and again
A warrior for Christ I became/

Now I know in part what lay
On the line by faith that day
Transformed the person meant to be
Priceless treasures assigned to me/

Thank You for Your loving hand
Keeping, guiding, protecting and
Guarding all Your future plans
That my soul with Savior stands/

Could I have known the road ahead
Lay priceless jewels for me alone
Placed by God no one could take
All for me His treasure safe

A Perfect Day

A perfect day my soul at peace
My plans surrendered yielded be
To Him alone my trust belongs
To birth His will in me alone/

A perfect day all is at rest
A day to prosper at His bequest
His will supreme I honor best
When I surrender all triumph rest/

A perfect day of true success
Lies in the wisdom of God’s best
To wait upon His Word my test
My rock, my fortress, His righteousness/

A perfect day my soul at peace
My plans surrendered yielded be
To Him alone my trust belongs
To birth His will in me alone

The Sound of Rain

The sound of rain to ears refined
Through tempest storms and fire divine
This heart of mine now holy bound
Blessings promised are now mine/

Hear the sound all those who wait
For God above in whom our faith
Shall not fail our hope to save
To bless, restore our lives this day/

The storm has passed, this trial of life
His faithful light, His hand held tight
Now clear the path He had in mind
We stay the course, His holy child/

The sound of rain to ears refined
Through tempest storms and fire divine
This heart of mind now holy bound
Blessings promised are now mine!

Look on Jesus

Life has been an incline
Toil so bittersweet
But when I look on Jesus
He makes it oh so sweet/

My pace has found its rhythm
My focus now complete
I’ve learned to look on Jesus
His love my strength to keep/

Through trials that strengthen
And grace all blessings flow
I humbly look on Jesus
Who lights my path below/

Life has been an incline
Toil so bittersweet
But when I look on Jesus
He makes it oh so sweet!

Belong

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

There was a time I only knew
This homeless world my only view
Now touched by love completely new
Eternal home I found in You/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

Your loving gaze upon the earth
Seeking those whose hearts brand new
Turning from our works to You
Spirit, soul and body due/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due

Triumphant One

O sweet victory, you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong/

Barren fields now filled with fruit
Everlasting faith in You
O Restorer of my soul
Lord of life, abundance flow/

Sovereign One who searches out
Those whose hearts are Yours contrite
Brings to triumph with a shout
Angel armies our victory delight/

O sweet victory you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong
