I walk through shadow, mist and bog
My heart alert, sight impaired by fog
Distant noises and shifting sounds about me as I hide
Powerful the invisible eyes, who's gaze pulls at every stride
They grapple for my feet and impede my start
Attempting to disrupt the beat from my weary heart
I recon their plan, this evil conspire
To drench me with fear and stifle my fire
To this I say no, to this I resist
I stand surefooted to embrace the duelist
Extended from hand, thy Sword of Truth does rise
To parry the death released from the enemy of lies
Truth stands where darkness cannot
Through steps of faith, I have the courage I sought
I stand against the scheme, regardless of toll
To remove the king from the throne seat of my soul

Fear's fight
Life untamed, wild and crass
Ever daunting some wish it would pass
Giants rise to stand in your way
They're hidden thought to destroy your day
Fear hides in darkness, shifting in boundless plight
All powerful, overwhelming and just too much
It grips your soul and holds you tight
Never intended for you as such
Fear is a thief, who slashes against your hope
It's momentum has you swaying upon the sea
It sends your heart crashing, too much to cope
Robbing and stealing, it wants all of the
Even Peter lost sight and was submerged
His eyes wavered and he chose wrong
Through darkness a grip plunged through, hands merged
Lifted him soaked, to sing a new song
The compassion of Christ will never fail
He breaks through to refresh even though you are stale
He does so for his glory so that you may hail
"God delivered me from my fear and made me prevail"
Ever daunting some wish it would pass
Giants rise to stand in your way
They're hidden thought to destroy your day
Fear hides in darkness, shifting in boundless plight
All powerful, overwhelming and just too much
It grips your soul and holds you tight
Never intended for you as such
Fear is a thief, who slashes against your hope
It's momentum has you swaying upon the sea
It sends your heart crashing, too much to cope
Robbing and stealing, it wants all of the
Even Peter lost sight and was submerged
His eyes wavered and he chose wrong
Through darkness a grip plunged through, hands merged
Lifted him soaked, to sing a new song
The compassion of Christ will never fail
He breaks through to refresh even though you are stale
He does so for his glory so that you may hail
"God delivered me from my fear and made me prevail"
Adorn's return
Trust in my grip, even more so in my hold
Trust in my word spoken and told
Stand up and speak with all that is bold
Call to the strangers large and small
Explain to all them about man's fall
As well as of grace extended to all
See their hearts through their own eyes
Chained by a life filled with lies
I Am the answer to all their whys
Stand up and lead all men my way
For time is short, the ending of the day
The blind and deaf will need you to pray
Sound of the trump, blare of the horn
The time of mending for all that are torn
For I Am returning for all my adorn
Trust in my word spoken and told
Stand up and speak with all that is bold
Call to the strangers large and small
Explain to all them about man's fall
As well as of grace extended to all
See their hearts through their own eyes
Chained by a life filled with lies
I Am the answer to all their whys
Stand up and lead all men my way
For time is short, the ending of the day
The blind and deaf will need you to pray
Sound of the trump, blare of the horn
The time of mending for all that are torn
For I Am returning for all my adorn
Heaven's Garden
A field of flowers, far as the eye can see
All white and swaying freely
A closer look will reveal
Them to be the faces of child spirits
Too numerous to count, too many to view
All tender and all precious as a ewe
Gentle steps work their way through the scape
Behind them flowing a glorious billowing cape
With arms stretched low and fingers extended
They touch each face with the grace he intended
With each step the soil is stirred anew
Panning back reveals a glorious view
See, this is God's garden grand and great
He's walking amongst his children with an ever slow gait
Inhaling the aroma of this children's praise
Caring for each bloom in specific ways
The Lord of Host tills the soil of his great lot
With his great glory his one thought
Amazing grace and never ending love
As the Father cares for his garden below from above
All white and swaying freely
A closer look will reveal
Them to be the faces of child spirits
Too numerous to count, too many to view
All tender and all precious as a ewe
Gentle steps work their way through the scape
Behind them flowing a glorious billowing cape
With arms stretched low and fingers extended
They touch each face with the grace he intended
With each step the soil is stirred anew
Panning back reveals a glorious view
See, this is God's garden grand and great
He's walking amongst his children with an ever slow gait
Inhaling the aroma of this children's praise
Caring for each bloom in specific ways
The Lord of Host tills the soil of his great lot
With his great glory his one thought
Amazing grace and never ending love
As the Father cares for his garden below from above
Fear Not
Fear not, Fear not, again the Lord says, Fear not
For you are the sowers of the seen of hope
For you are the standers in the gap
For you are the comforters of those who can't cope
For you are the lifter's of men where they're at
Don't give up, Don't give up, again the Lord says, Don't give up
Souls await your beautiful heart
To reach out in love and bring together what's apart
Dry broken hearts await a drink
Of living water that lifts them from the brink
The need is great, the need is many
Your are my children and possess what is meant of all and any
So go my children and be not alarmed
For I stand above you and will never lower my arms
Fear not, Fear not, again the Lord says, Fear not
For you are the sowers of the seen of hope
For you are the standers in the gap
For you are the comforters of those who can't cope
For you are the lifter's of men where they're at
Don't give up, Don't give up, again the Lord says, Don't give up
Souls await your beautiful heart
To reach out in love and bring together what's apart
Dry broken hearts await a drink
Of living water that lifts them from the brink
The need is great, the need is many
Your are my children and possess what is meant of all and any
So go my children and be not alarmed
For I stand above you and will never lower my arms
Fear not, Fear not, again the Lord says, Fear not

A Whisper
A gentle breeze
A whisper
The rustle of leaves
A whisper
Rolling thunder, a clap in the sky
A whisper
A cricket's chirp
A whisper
An ocean's wave
A whisper
Your loving voice, a gift of life a fresh
A whisper
I hear you
Whispering - "I love you"
I see you
Whispering - "I love you"
I feel you
Loving me
Show me Lord, how to do these things
So that you know how much
I love you
Even with
...a whisper
A whisper
The rustle of leaves
A whisper
Rolling thunder, a clap in the sky
A whisper
A cricket's chirp
A whisper
An ocean's wave
A whisper
Your loving voice, a gift of life a fresh
A whisper
I hear you
Whispering - "I love you"
I see you
Whispering - "I love you"
I feel you
Loving me
Show me Lord, how to do these things
So that you know how much
I love you
Even with
