Time to stop thinking

It's time to stop thinking 
And just simply be 
To accept all the Beauty 
In where God has called me 
To quieten my mind 
And open my heart 
To let God remain
Never to part 

It's time to stop dividing 
Over too many things 
To allow others freedom
Before their King of Kings 
To seek more than what's right 
But rather a heart deeply pure
That heals the broken 
Sending heavens divine cure 

It's a new year 
Perhaps a new time to start
Seeking God
With a brand new heart
That prefers the welfare 
Of each brother 
Truly loving 
One another 

Will all be saved?

Will all be saved 
No man knows
Either way 
Oh hope compose
A melody of joy 
Deep in my heart
That none in the end 
From Christ will depart 

Don't steal hope
Let it flow
Kneel and pray
Let love grow
For all sinners 
Of whom I am chief
Don't preach hopelessness
Don't preach grief 

Hell is real 
Unending for sure
So we believe for all men 
So hope can endure 
We fail not 
We never cease to pray
That every lost soul
Will find their way 

Sing to me

Sing to me 
Of love unfailing 
How on the cross
We were nailing 
Love eternal 
Ever true
Who died for me
And died for you 

Keep my eyes
Ever upon 
Calvary 
From dusk till dawn 
Let his bleeding 
Wounded brow
Compel my heart 
To ever bow 

Sing to me 
Of endless grace 
Who compels all
To seek his face
Lifted on 
The cross was He
To draw all
Unto thee 

Oh soul why would 
You stay away 
Eternal soul 
What can we say 
When loves rejected 
To the end 
Who then can heal
Who will then mend

Sometimes I fear

Sometimes I fear
That God isn't there
That we're left on this lonely planet
And no one does care
That we're all spinning
Way out of control 
And we'll be lost in space
Each lonely soul

Then I remember 
The times God did speak
Into my life
Though I remain weak
I meditate 
On all His wonders
And tremble and shake
As His voice thunders

Endless mercy 
Endless grace
Oh come behold Him 
Face to face
He cares for all
Though the world is dying
His Compassions heal
The wounds of the crying 

The mind will ache to grasp
What the heart knows
The mind will tremble
As your spirit grows
In love and wisdom 
It's now time to be still
And know God will do
Whatever He will

Nothing to say

I've nothing to say
My minds gone dead
Overloaded
It's been too well fed
While my heart ached
To be filled
My spirit broken
To be stilled

The mind can rarely know
What the heart hears
It may at times agree
Still it ever fears
Oh keep it quiet
While your heart immerses
Into endless wonder
Of Holy written verses 

Be still poor soul
The silence will speak 
Be still in awe
Kiss a Holy Cheek
Be still my mind
Quieten your fears
Be still worried child
He's bottled your tears

Different stages

We're all at different stages
Along the journey of life
Let's leave each other to walk it
Without causing needless strife
People change with time
Let's not press them too hard
Treat the young with gentleness
Don't play the moralising card

Make your main purpose
To be full of love and grace
Don't hand out many laws
Instead show them Jesus face
Don't condemn the outcast
The gays and the poor
Keep your eyes on your own sins
And you'll do well for sure

There's a time and a place
To speak of what you know
The good laws God has taught you
You may help people grow
When they're ready to take that
Step you want them too
Just don't push them too quickly
Even though what you know is true

Come be filled with wisdom 
Come be filled with grace
Come be filled with love
Walk the weak mans pace
Come be filled with hope
And be full of beauty
Carry your brothers burden 
Tis your only duty 

Unconditional love

Unconditional love
Stay with me
A foolish request
I can see
Tis unconditional love
That begs for me
To receive him still
When I want to flee

Unconditional love
Kneeling for me
Washing my feet
How can it be
Unconditional love
Crawling for me
As I nail him too
That cursed tree 

Unconditional love
Make me still
Unconditional love
All of me kill
Unconditional love
Help me stay
Unconditional love
When I want to run away 

Unconditional love
My sins are more
Than the hairs on my head
Oh grace do pour
Unending oceans
To wash them away
That's all I want 
For this I pray
