APPREHENSION


Who am I to doubt
Doubt Your calling
Doubt Your power
Who am I?


A God who's power knows no end
A God who's knowledge has no end
A God who's grace surpasses all
Yet still I doubt


Nervous I stand
Hopeless and alone I feel
Scared to take the leap
Remind me You have my hand


Can it really be
That You call me
Unworthy I know I am
Surely You've got the wrong man


But seeing what You've done before
No wonder all knees will bow
And all tongues call you Lord


The men You've used before
Timid, scared and sinners like me
You used their lives
So why not use me

Love Poem

Love so deep
How can I explain it?
Love so amazing
How can I deserve it?

I tried to fight against You
Wanted to think You're not real
Turned my back towards You
And yet You still loved me

Was feeling lost and lonely
Yet You were here still with me
In Your arms You embraced me
And in Your love You restored me

Love so deep
I can't explain it
Love so amazing
I don't deserve it

Love, our world needs more of it
We try and try and still we fail
Flowers faded
Promises jaded

But in You love we see
Loving all humanity
In Your death comes life
Love Provided

On the cross
Forgiveness given
Open grave
Salvation born

Banana

A yellow skin
Covering the person
I am deep within
Painting over the discolouring
Hiding from you
The pain I feel
Yet still leaving
A bruise or two
To prove that I am still real
Bruised, battered and rotten
I feel
As I hide behind
My peel
Scared that
One look at me
And you'll hate
What you see
But the time has come
For the skin to be peeled
And who really I am to be revealed
No more hiding
Defenceless in the open
Naked for all to see
It's time for me
To be Me

Thank You

Without Your prayers
Would I still be here?
Your love has kept me
The only thing that could
Rip me from the hands of despair

Unconditionally
Day after day
Year after year
Without Your faithfulness
Would I still be here?

An image of love
That means so much to me
If only I had the courage to tell you
There is only one thing I need to tell you:
Thank You
