Praise is what we do

Just like everyone has a different love language, each one of us has an individual prayer language.  Whether we serve the Lord through working in the office or staying at home, we've all been given gifts to glorify Him.

One of the ways I like to worship God is to write poetry.  This is an original piece about how good God is. 

Renaissance of a Contemptible Mind


Everything around me’s changing,
Bending, moving, molding, shaking
Transforming, uplifting, truth brought to light
Under the wings of my God, the Christ

From the flow of the dance to the song on my lips
All is formed anew, a fresh life in this
A new forgiveness. Redemption, love, life
An airy devotion, a revitalized sight

A love, a fidelity that I’ve never known
A fondness that only the Maker can show
Exoneration poured out, one so well undeserved
A balm freely given, to ease all sorrows and hurts

The One who’s so grand, with His glory stretched high
Has brought this heart of mine change, made my vision so bright.
So unworthy, and selfish, as the prisoner I am
He has fostered revival by the strength of His hand.

With miracles so eternal; and favor reaching the sky
This salvation, this redemption, it’s claimed now as mine.
So gracious, so lovely, is my Father’s great love
Nothing can separate this, nothing beneath or above.

Life blossoms, life blooms, it swells and I swoon
But His strength and protection is afforded me soon
And the play, it continues; just an act, a mere scene
And I run, and I dance, and I cry, and I scream

His arms are wide open, always comfort and peace.
A renewal of spirit, to those who deserve it the least.
So magnificent, so astounding, this unending grace
From the King of all Kings, the Lord of all days

Through His truth and His might, He is awesome in power
All of immoralities ink, has been from me been scoured.
A continual, yes unending, a great refining fire
And it fans the flames of this everlasting desire.

To please, and to worship, to serve, yes to love
A contriteness of heart; weakness admitted of
And all’s been changed, is different, His mercy entered into
All the praise, all the honor, belongs Lord only to You.
