The Return
I come to you, Lord
seeking once more.
Teach me of faithfulness,
openness, love.
I come full of tears
with my heart open wide
for my Father, my Savior,
my Master,Redeemer,
Your Spirit and most Holy Love.
I'm tired today Lord.
I can't seem to care.
Nothing really matters,
my companion-despair.
My mind goes in circles
day fades into night.
Peace is elusive,
insanity takes flight.
Exhausted and confused
running to hide
staying busy, not listening
to your words in my mind.
I've lost my way Lord
Send me sweet consolation.
Forgive me, refresh me, renew me.
Make me hungry again.
Remind me of your special grace
that touched my inner being;
steadfast love, understanding and mercy
that caused my soul to sing.
I come to you Lord,
seeking once more.
Teach me of faithfulness,
humbleness, love;
for my Father, my Saviour,
my Master, Redeemer,
my teacher-your Spirit-my love.
I remember the way oh Lord.
Thank you for your sweet consolation.
You softened my heart
with your gentle compassion.
I'm alive! I've come home again!
I'm alive and I've come home again!

Not ashamed about it
This is life

The blanket of circumstances

This is the first day of the rest of my life.
Many years were spent as a mother and a wife.
I can not count the many lonely
The soul's first entrance into this world
A newborn, baby that's sweet and warm
An innocent now, with all memories erased
You move through my thoughts like a ghost,
I can barely see or hear you, but I know you're there.
Whispering words that
by Tammy A
I walked across the hall Into my room
I closed the door behind me
And entered into my world
You sat at the corner Waiting for
