Daily life is lived
Careful with my focus
Important to think
Now is the time

The world would pull us away
Having its say
Wait and see
There will be another day

Tomorrow may not come
The mind set is lost or won today
Now is when we sin
Not then or then and then

Now is where the heart is
Now is where I live
Victory comes today
Not again and again

Winning is a now thing
I win this very day
This moment has its say
Do it now is the right way

It is too easy to think
I will fix this then
The water is leaking now
I must plug the hole somehow

A mind committed to now
Will accomplish enormous wins
I can think and grin
Christ will deliver me from sin

But I must remember now
The win must be now
Peace and grace are present
Claim the prize right now

The promises of God
Touch my heart
And heal my soul
The Lord loves me

He is aware of all my pain
He knows the evil in me
And still His Word is sure
“Listen to me and I will lead”

From the pit of sin
He reaches in
Giving me a sure place to step
And holding me along the way

From the field of gain
In failures name
He sees my shame
And comforts me

When the loss is great
Because of my wait
To get before His face
He finds me and saves me

I love the Lord
He will not lose me
Even though I am weak
His strength will carry me

The Lord is great
He loves me
He will always stand with me
I can trust the Lord.

I want to know the Lord
To stand with Him
In one accord
And follow His way

I have excuses
My past or this or that
Lazy is its name
I’m immature and in shame

The way to life
Involves strife
Choices made
That bring current pain

But plant a crop
Of strength and fame
Able always to call His name
Jesus is my King and I serve Him

The price I pay
Is daily care
Watch myself
Bring His Word to bear

And when the pain
Is oh too great
Bend my knee
Ask Christ to take my place

It always comes down to pride
Will I surrender my life?
Am I committed to Jesus Christ?
Is His way best or do I cling to mine?

Questions only I can answer
Life is a daily thing
And when I live in Jesus name
Daily I spend time with Him

No magic fix
It is a daily choice
I claim my life in Christ
Today Jesus is first

Right as rain
And sure of life
Look at me
I’m wise and nice

I know how it is
And I’m fit to quiz
My accomplishments
Speak very loud

Everyone knows
How kind I am
All my good deeds
Can be seen all around

Michael came
Who is He?
Would God come?
And question me

How can this be?
I’ve done such good
I can’t believe
What I hear I should

I know those things
You don’t know
God wouldn’t come
To a person like me

He sealed my mouth
I lived my faith
Coming true
Day by Day

Miracles abound
When I don’t control
How my world unfolds
And God is on my throne

The Lord is sovereign
Help me not forget
He will use me
For His benefit

A little girl
No background known
The Lord spoke
He was known

She bent her knee
To do His Word
A humble heart
Cleansed and good

Her question was small
How can this happen?
A question from belief
A procedural thought

Quality in her
Relationship built
Mary was able
To walk without guilt

Now she began
A journey of faith
Knowing the Lord
Would never be late

God has spoken
In many ways
Today you hear
Christ is near

You are the one
That can change your life
Listen to Jesus
He will give good advice

Every day will challenge you
Wisdom will come
From Christ in you
And He will guide you through

Through the journey
Back to life
That life you see
In your memory

Able to be
The one you knew
Would always do good
And be loved too

Jesus will stay with you
Christ will make you new
You will feel His love
He loves you and you are the one

I know the pain
That life can bring
I see it happen
Again and again

I feel the need
That poverty brings
The emotional drag
The yearn to be free

I’ve felt the gift
Of life in Christ
Removing my pain
Sparing my life

Standing here
I know I’m free
Jesus my Lord
Walks each step with me

Pain has a life
Poverty is a state of mind
Christ heals me
His resources free me

I know the joy
That Christ will bring
I felt His presence
I’ve seen His way

I’ve walked and shared
My struggles with Him
Wisdom and grace
He always gives

My life is important
Because of Christ
The daily grind
Is now a daily prize

Each day is new
Each miracle comes
To enable me to serve
And tell Christ is come

Just another stranger
I’m ministering to
Weak and lonely
A lot like you

But in their weakness
I find great strength
The believe in Jesus
He’s all they think

Not distracted by geegaws
Or fooled by sight
They know evil
It’s in their sight

Life parades before them
Heartaches vie for time
But Christ heals every evil
He is always on time

How does it happen?
I think I’m so strong
Before I stop evil
I’m singing Christ’s song

Lining out His workplace
Building His house
Expecting Christ to answer
As I laugh out loud

All around is evil
All throughout is pain
And yet I loudly wisper
I live in Jesus name

His name knew heartache
His life devoted to God
He knew eternal
Dying for my soul

What have I done lately?
That furthers Christ’s cause
Maybe I should listen
And let the Lord have all
