Make me a dwelling place
for your spirit to rest
Scrape all my pride
my iniquities inside
Wrap me in love
so faithful and true
Then adorn me with
the fruits of Your Spirit
I can't do this alone
to welcome You home
For I have nothing in me
That is worthy of Thee
Make me a dwelling place
for your spirit to bless
Set up the lamp
in my darkened space
Can You paint me white
so I may shine the light
Make me be evermore
desirable for Thee
I can't do this alone
to welcome You home
For I have nothing in me
That is worthy of Thee
Note: Inspired by today's devotion ~ Psalm 132

A New Song Today - Precious Child (Tentative title)
Precious Child
(Tentative Title)
Lead me to the cross
Where your love has changed me
When you wrote the story of salvation
And signed it with your blood
I lift my eyes to the hills
To see the maker of heaven and earth
Wounded, nailed,
Because of me,
Because of me
Who am I that you are mindful of me
When winds blow and waves soar
You still search in the deepest sea
You pick me up from the depths
Cleanse me from the dirt
And call me a precious child of Yours
Sometimes my thoughts fly adrift
And my heart swings low
Yet your love and faithfulness
Stand the same no matter where I go
You welcome with an embrace
Like a Father who has found
what once was lost
I’m amazed,
I’m amazed
Who am I that you are mindful of me
When winds blow and waves soar
You still search in the deepest sea
You pick me up from the depths
Cleanse me from the dirt
And call me a precious child of Yours
My heart longs to go forth
And sing a new song
As I hold the banner high
And proclaim Jesus’ love
To the ends of the earth
Who am I that you are mindful of me
When winds blow and waves soar
You still search in the deepest sea
You pick me up from the depths
Cleanse me from the dirt
And call me a precious child of Yours
Who am I, who am I
Yes, I am Your precious child
Ever since a friend of mine gave me the CD of Sarah O, a Singaporean churchmate of hers, who has transformed several verses into a song, I couldn't help but tell my friends to go write and put a tune to it. Coupled with the fact that the line "Sing a new song" is repeated several times in Psalms.
I praise God that His presence overwhelmed me this morning. I felt His embrace. His love. And as I reflected on His steadfast love, here are words He blessed me with. (feel free to make a tune out of it).

Everything in Its Time
My song of the year last 2007, "Everything in It's Time" gives me goosebumps. It has been three long years of seeking, questioning, learning and finding. And I'm amazed to see how God has made most (or if not all) of the pieces fit at the present. 'He has made everything beautiful in its time' (Ecclesiastes 3:11).
If you are in the waiting phase or locked in a moment of uncertainty or healing from a brokenness, then this song is for you.
Waiting can be painful. Every minute can be tension filled. What's odd is that we spend most of our time waiting than actually enjoying its fruits. (I'm sure you'd agree that most of the time the wait is worth it). Here's a comforting reassurance sang in a beautifully written song. You may opt to play this in the background of your life's setting. Go back to work and let this song tenderly provide music to your soul.

Everything in Its Time
by: Corrinne May
Sometimes I wonder what lies ahead
How long till my hunger is fed
They say it's hard to make it in this part of town
So many people on this merry-go-round
Some folks try astrology
Some turn to crystal balls
To find an answer,
To get through it all
I just fall on my knees and I try to pray
In the silence I can hear Him say
The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign
Everything in its time
I often feel like I'm two steps behind
Somebody must have moved that finish line
There are a thousand reasons
Why I should give up
But I'm stubborn in the things I believe
The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign
'cause maybe there's another plan
One I still can't see
A little surprise, like your love in my life
Funny how time changes how we see
The river runs and the river hides
Out to the ocean and under the sky
I promise you, the answer will come
Hold on to patience and watch for the sign
Everything in its time

Though I'm Not Worthy
Sharing with you a song entitled "Though I'm Not Worthy" by Kari Jobe.
Isn't it a privilege to be silent before the Lord?
Think about this, He is not taking away your time. But you are taking away His!

Ssshhhh......
Glad you have reached this part of the adventure! Now, it's time to sit back, quiet down and rest for a while. Let this song fill the air. :)
Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is holy
Be still, O restless soul of mine
Bow before the Prince of peace
Let the noise and clamor cease
Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know that He is faithful
Consider all that He has done
Stand in awe and be amazed
And know that He will never change
Be still
Be still, and know that He is God
Be still, and know that He is God
Be still, and know that He is God
Be still; Be speechless
Be still and know that He is God
Be still and know He is our Father
Come rest your head upon His breast
Listen to the rhythm of His unfailing heart of love
Beating for His little ones
Calling each of us to come
Be still, Be still
