YOUR WILL BE DONE

May Your Holy Will be done
make us all become as one,
give to us a brand new birth
so to praise You on the earth.

Fill our hearts and fill our souls
with Your wonders ever mould,
our love to Yours forevermore
show us what You have in store.

For all who follow where You lead
Oh dearest Lord, we ever plead,
keep Your eyes upon each creature
help us to keep You, the main feature.

In this cinema of life
full of worldly cares and strife,
teach us that each cross we bear
will lead us to celestial stairs.

Where You wait with radiance glowing
oh the pleasure to be knowing,
that for now and evermore
we’ll be nestled in Your tender core.

THE WONDER

It is here, it is there
it is always everywhere.
It’s in each of us
His greatest creation,
from the least to the greatest nation,
the Wonder of His Love.

A blade of grass, a rosy flower,
we sit and ponder by the hour.
The birds that fly, the honey bee,
oh how often do we see,
the Wonder of His Love.

Whenever I do stop and gaze,
there’s every reason to give Him praise.
It is here, it is there,
it is always everywhere.
In the soft, soft cooing of a dove,
the Wonder, Wonder, of His Love.

THE KEEPER OF THE LIGHT

It all began I do perceive
when each of us were in love conceived,
from a tiny seed it commenced to grow
and as the years did come and go,
it fell like gentle summer rain
absorbed in our souls, our hearts and brains.
It shone within, it shone without
at certain times there was no doubt.
It was given when four times in white
it came in greater wondrous light.
The days do come, the days do go
of this precious gift I surely know,
that as I breathe that long last sigh
the giver of the gift will cut the tie,
and for all eternity, with all my might
I will praise the Keeper of the light.
