Beyond my understanding

When I think on the thoughts around Godliness

Confusion can block me I confess

Unseeing belief is good for me I guess

But I don’t feel fine when my life’s a mess

 

God beyond my understanding

Personal, abstract or no name at all

Be my sweet DNA, ground my being

Love me completely, enlighten my way

Discretely please guide me so that I may

 

Fall, fall into Your opening arms

Fall, fall right down upon these knees

Call, call out now for Your loving balm

Restore me, renew me so I receive

 

You are the Name above all names

You are the word beyond my lone voice

You hear what I need before I  say

You chose to bequeath me my own choice

 

For You are the luminous great I AM

You shine Your light upon everything

Even when we choose to walk alone

You patiently wait to guide us back home

Yes you are patiently waiting to guide us home.

Childlike Children

Remembering past times

When our children had childlike

Free flowing bold confidence

Unknowing pure innocence

When no fear could constrain them

From sharing unearned gifts

Unseeing the suffering

Where the self critic lives.

 

Let us begin to believe how

We were once like this child

Let us reconnect right now

With the ease and the power

Let our life courses choose love

Let our voices ring true

Drain doubt from our sweet Hearts

Flooded completely in You.

Golden

Golden

Verse:

Your Word and deed transforming me anew

As I kneel Your light comes shining through

Yeilding Beauty riven in your Fire

Melting Your Truth in this poor heart.

Chorus:

Gracious, Omnipotent, Love Divine

Revealing Your treasury in rhythm and rhyme

Glorious Oneness, Life Deity

From morning to sunset shine golden in me.

Verse:

Your enlightenment is Heavenly

Kings and Queens bow and unfold in me

Planting beauty here within my heart

Your wisdom and mine will never part.

Bridge:

Your great beauty, golden like the sun

Shining deep in me, Your Kingdom is come.

Deeply Well

Drinking in the lite life

Checking out for a life time

Holding on for the right vibe

Searching happiness and peace on-line

Mesmerising myself again

Within a moments consolation

Building longer loss upon an instant gain

Drowning with anticipation

And we say:

Please hold on within your strife

But dont let yourself be held by it

Walk bold and free within your life

But don’t stamp your foolish pride on it

Don’t grasp the wrong away from right

Judge and jury of folks behaviour

Be guided by His strong tower light

As you wade in these seas with your saviour

Wading in the watering

Surfing waves that surely quenches

Satisfying thirstfulness again

Immersing well beyond our senses.
