You called my name
Psalm 73.25.....Whom have I in heaven but you and being with you I desire nothing on earth.... You called my name I heard and turned my head Selfish plans & reputations Foolish dreams and wasted years But you said... Iam your Lord, For you my tears were shed The tune was the breeze of a heavenly song The music full of peace that drew me on My heart leapt up and joy was found For my song is of a friend Who is special to me For He called out my name called out my name called out my name with a beautiful sound You called my name Words that were very clear I tried to justify my ways My vision of the past was dead But you said... You're my child it can't be the same again The tune was the breeze of a heavenly song The music full of peace that drew me on My heart leapt up and joy was found For my song is of a friend Who is special to me For He called out my name called out my name called out my name with a beautiful sound |

FAITHFUL
(Psalm 56. 9,11,13) In God I trust .. I will not be afraid.. I thought the day would never end I thought that life could be no friend How wrong I was How wrong I was For what is man that he should know The unknown things that bring me low He understands He takes my hand I found him to be true to me How faithless and weak not to sec Jesus knows me Jesus holds me Father the skies seem blue and light Father you cleared away the night I want to know Your love once more words & music 12th Jan. 1981 |
RETURN
(Song of Solomon 8.6,7/6.13)
Seal it on my heart Never let it part seal it on my arm Write it as a psalm I once saw it in the skies Thought that they were lies But now I realised It is my greatest prize Love is strong as death Its flame is like a fire Flame that blazes higher That water cannot quench CHORUS Return , Return I wanna look in your eyes Return, Return Love is my sweetest prize Return my Spirit cries For Lord how long I sigh words & music 21st Dec. 1980 |

Fighting Clean I cannot hold in all that seemed like a mystery He opened up my stubborn heart, my, so patiently His truth secured to sink in, and was so clear Sprinkled clean in His warm love that took away my fear. Like an open book to be read Each line of the clear words He said Grasping for the good and kicking out sin That's when His Spirit entered in He gave me my friends in His family Told me to be one, said it was His body To honour each other and serve them in love I knew from that moment the light of His dove To keep on moving in His plan the way I would trace Finding the way, at His pace to see His face Well, I was a servant and He was the King What else did I have to proclaim, of whom I could sing? Darkness was nailed as joy broke the chains My hope in His strength was all my true gain As I talked to my Father, I heard His voice say Shaping and forming your life, to create beauty from clay. words & music Dec. 1980 |
ALL I ASK IS TO KNOW YOU All I ask is to know you Yet my heart so oftvn fails Of treasures you want to give me O Jesus you are my friend You're real I can feel you I can almost touch you How much is my life worth Can I lay it down the line Jesus walk with me my Lord Let me leave the rest behind All I ask is to love you But my love is getting cold Spirit draw me closer to things worth more than gold So pure so dear to me my eyes can see (repeat chorus) All I ask is to serve you No worthier Lord I own Jesus though doubts & fears come in Keep me close to you My friend Father thank you Father Iam yours words & music 31st August & 7th Nov. 1980 |

LORD I LOVE YOU John 21.15-19 "Yes Lord, You know I love you" It seems like a dream Only yesterday, I spat right in His face I did'nt really want to be seen with him in that market place But He looked at me the eyes of love And Oh he made me see That He'd forgiven me I felt so full of guilt But I was dumb with words that I would say I thought he'd given up on me When they 'd taken him away But as we sat by the shore His touch was full of grace And he reached out more Feed my lambs was his embrace It is so truer that Galilee is not far From right where we stay Peter in our lives is pride That breaks when we obey He still walks by our side And reaches out His hand As tear- filled eyes give up the fight He says he understands words & music 15th Jan. 1981 |
AFTER GOD'S OWN HEART (Proverbs 31. 10-30) I cannot say how much you are worth For to me you are priceless I may try to forget you but it's the same For fame & jewels cannot replace your name God created all that is good And I love him for he knows Our need of Him just grows Our love for him must show She is much more than a lady For best friends are so few I trust her not just maybe I love her it's more than you know Lord to go on with you She wants to as I do Jesus , Lord , We worship you our lives are being made new You know how I want to be sure You know that I must be clear That your will must be done Your Son only makes us one Teach us what to do Show us what is true Respect & love , love must be joined by peace & honesty To help the poor & the needy You want us to be ready O we need a heart, heart of love Power from your hand above She is kind and cares For Spirit your life she shares And faithfulness in her increase Let her inner beauty never cease words & music 1981 |
