Today ...
Clare Mar 2020
Today, I will live for You
Despite wanting to care for Me
I’ll seek to hear from You

Choosing to overlook My physical pains
Ignoring My circumstances, I’ll love You
Negating My selfishness, I’ll serve You

My colleagues and neighbours need You
I will not bring You shame
I will honour You, my God

Your joy is my daily strength
I will shine for You, Jesus
You are my only focus, Today
So help me God

Don't quit
Clare Mar 2020
Don’t quit
Don’t quit
Until you have nothing left
Don’t quit on me

Ok Lord
But …
“Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

Give me your very best
I am not through with you yet
Until I move you are to bloom

OK Lord
But …
“Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

I am silent, yes
But I am shielding you from harm
I am in control

OK Lord
But …“
Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

I rememberDon’t quit
Don’t quit
Until you have nothing left
Don’t quit on me

Ok Lord
But …
“Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

Give me your very best
I am not through with you yet
Until I move you are to bloom

OK Lord

“Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

I am silent, yes
But I am shielding you from harm
I am in control

Remember the word unto thy servant,
Upon which thou hast caused me to hope.”

The Ark
Clare Mar 2020
In the darkness of the ark
When the grey obscurity envelops all
The clear light will suddenly appear
Dispelling all the voices of evil

In the stink of the ark
When the sour monotony sets in
The sweet aroma will surely arise
And all anxieties will then evaporate

In the insecurity of the ark
When all despair ensnares our soul
Divine protective trust will surround us
And all fear will be overcome

In the confinement of the ark
When the depression firmly sets in
Godly elated freedom will set us free
Scattering all misconceptions, anxieties and worries

At the destiny of the ark
When it rests atop our Mount
Our eternal portion will be seen
As doors of opportunities will open

No man's land
Clare Mar 2020
When you’re in no man’s land
You must wait patiently

You want to see the manifestation
Having the promises, the rehma word
But still more waiting

You see the Lord’s compassionate smile
Through that of a small child
Feeling His caress through the breeze
Still more incomprehensible waiting

Afraid that bitterness will creep in
Fearing you’ll miss the high calling
You wait beyond waiting

You’re still in no man’s land
When suddenly the miracle
Look at what GOD has done!

— The End —
