Leaving a legacy

Lord please let me leave a
legacy,
like what has been past down
to me.
I want to let my children know
how wonderful living for you can be.
To know it won't always be sunshine
sometimes we need the rain,
that we won't always feel great,
sometimes we learn through pain.
To know we can't just run through life
doing what we please,
But to find our answers from you,
by getting on our knees.
I'm so far from perfect, not always
what I need to be,
But I know with your help I can
be an example for them to see.

Reflections of a Lovely Lady

When I look into a mirror, Lord,
what is it I see?
Am I really the wife and mother
you have chosen me to be?
It's not as important what I look like,
but what I am within.
It's my heart and my soul, am I really
cleansed from sin?
Am I really the lady, that you would
have me be?
Does the mirror I look into
really show me what you see?
I want to be a lovely lady not just
on the outward part,
but Lord please make me a lovely lady
within this humble heart.
To God be the glory

Care for others and they will care for you

"Does anyone really care about me?"
is what your heart cries out.
"What is my real purpose in life?"
your mind seems to shout.
It seems a daily struggle
just to find where you belong.
And all your really searching for is love,
am I not wrong?
There are many others just like you
and a secret I will share.
Have you let someone know today,
that you really care?
Have you told someone today,
your glad that there alive?
Have you forgot about yourself
and helped someone else survive?
Have you been very careful
in all the words you say?
Have you took time to pray for someone
who has lost there way?
It's really not a secret,
it's what God wants us to do.
Simply, do to others
as you'd have them do to you.

Bowing Down

As I fell on bended knee
at the foot of my Lord's cross,
I begged the Lord's forgiveness
as I prayed he not be wroth.
I gave him all my burdens,
my troubles and my sins.
He said," That's what I'm here for,
to cleanse you from within".
And as I bowed my head low
I felt a little drop.
It washed my soul, and I felt so good,
I prayed it never stop.
Lord please let me always remember
just what you went through,
so I may be a faithful servant ever tried and true.
Thank you, God, for your mercy
and your grace given so much.
Thank you, God, for loving me
and giving me a new touch.
And I pray he gives joy to you,
upon this special day.
For each day is special
when you let God have his way.
To God be the glory
