				Like ! 
			
				  
				   As 
				A Mirror My Lord ! 
				 
				Lord may we become a mirror of Your Heart  
				May our beings so reflect Yours, 
				Lord we now pray that as time goes on 
				We'll become like You still more. 
				May we as we lift up our hands each day 
				And give our praises unto You, 
				Bring all the honour to You O Lord 
				That You are truly due. 
				 
				May we as we lift our voices each day 
				Truly exalt Your Name we pray, 
				And so glorify You each day O Lord 
				In all we come to say. 
				May we daily bring before You lord 
				An offering given out of love, 
				And out of a desire to serve You more 
				As You guide us from above.

				The Light Of 
				Christ ! 
				  
				    
				Each of us are created as individuals 
				     By God's ever Caring Hands, 
				  He works to restore us to that place 
				    Where with Him we may stand. 
				  Righteous and Holy before our Lord 
				     Untarnished with sin in any way, 
				   Bearing the image of Jesus Christ 
				    Forever in our lives each day. 
				  No longer held down by the distorted image 
				     That began when the first Adam did sin, 
				As the image of Jesus Christ our Lord 
				   Wells up from deep within. 
				To be then seen by those others around 
				      As we reflect within our being, 
				 The Image of Christ, the Son of God 
				       That in us may then be 
				seen. 
				   Shining forth amidst the darkness 
				      That began with the fall of man, 
				A darkness dispelled by the Light of Christ 
				   For eternity according to God's Plan.

				The Spirit Of God ! 
				 
				As the Spirit of God descended like a Dove 
				On You Jesus Christ now long ago, 
				I pray that He too will descend upon us 
				Each day in our walk as we grow. 
				As the Spirit of God descended like a Dove 
				And took up residence Christ in Your heart, 
				I pray that He will daily abide in us 
				Each day to the end from the start. 
				As the Spirit of God descended like a Dove 
				And guided You Jesus each day, 
				I pray that daily as we abide in Him 
				He will guide us each step of the way 
				As the Spirit of God descended like a Dove 
				And upheld You Christ when You were weak, 
				I pray that He too will uphold us each day 
				As God's Will we humbly do seek. 
				As the Spirit of God descended like a Dove 
				And stood by You Jesus in all that You did face, 
				I pray that He too will be our Shield and Comforter 
				As we walk on upheld by God's Grace.

				May Your 
				Ways Become Our Ways ! 
				 
				May Lord our ways be sure,  
				May our motives be pure, 
				In all we do everyday; 
				May our thoughts be true, 
				Lord always centred on You 
				In all we daily come to say. 
				May our actions be true, 
				And may they glorify You, 
				For this Lord we now do pray; 
				As we seek to serve You, 
				In all that we say and do 
				Moment by moment each day. 
				May our walk be consistent, 
				May we never be resistant, 
				To Your Will Lord we now pray; 
				May our life so testify, 
				That You are ever nearby 
				To guide us each step of the way.

				May We Bear 
				Good Fruit ! 
				
				Father God You are the Keeper 
				Of the vine of which we're a part, 
				Planted by the river of Living Water 
				Where our life began a new start. 
				 
				Daily You watch over and care for us  
				You nurture us with Your Hands, 
				Tenderly and lovingly You work in our lives 
				So that for eternity we may stand. 
				 
				Daily You nurture and feed us Lord 
				You care for us in Love, 
				As we draw from the River of Living Water 
				And You watch over from above. 
				 
				Daily You prune and remove the dead wood 
				You leave only that which is clean, 
				So that over time we bear only good fruit 
				That the Fruit of the Spirit may be seen. 
				 
				Father God You are the Loving Keeper 
				You care for us each day, 
				Jesus is the Vine and we're the branches 
				May we bear You good fruit I pray.

				 May 
				We Truly Sing Praises 
				! 
		 
		God Your Ways and our ways 
		Differ so much each day, 
		And while our ways will cease to be 
		Your Ways forever will stay. 
		At times Your Ways are to us confusing 
		And quite hard to understand, 
		But I trust in time things will become more clear 
		As we hold onto Your Hand. 
		May we truly sing Your praises Lord 
		May we truly praise Your Name, 
		May we give glory to You O Lord 
		Today and every day. 
		May we truly sing Your praises Lord 
		May we exalt Your Name each day, 
		May we in our daily walk O Lord 
		Truly honour You we pray 
		May we truly sing Your praises Lord 
		May we each day praise You, 
		Throughout our life no matter what 
		You Lord do take us through.

				My 
				Friend What Is Your Destiny 
				? 
				
				
				
				     
				
				I ask you today, what is your destiny in time 
     Beyond whatever tomorrow, may so bring my friend, 
     Do you have a hope, beyond when you will die 
     Or do you think that life, will simply come to an end? 
				 
    My Friend what hope, do you hold onto today 
    Yes at this time, as to what will become of you, 
    When you pass away, as you one day will 
    Just as I know, that I will one day too? 
				 
    My friend can you say, with any certainty 
    What will become of you, when you do die, 
    Have you ever heard, of my Lord Jesus Christ 
    Who is waiting for you, to allow Him to draw nigh. 
				 
    Know this my friend, that my Friend Jesus 
    Yes Jesus Christ, who is my beloved Lord and King too, 
    Stands by and walks with me His son everyday 
    He so wants to stand by and walk with you my friend too. 
				 
    He is my Peace and Hope for each tomorrow 
    He is me Peace and Hope, I hold onto everyday, 
    And now because of Him I have no fear 
    Of when I die my friend, of what may come my way. 
				 
    For I daily hold onto all His Promises in His Word 
    And I rest in His Arms of Peace, that is beyond 
				my  understanding, 
    And claim the Power of Salvation through His Blood 
    I ask you now will you let Him come in. 
				 
    Yes into your life at this present point in time 
    For He is waiting at the door of your heart continually, 
    Knocking at the door of your heart today 
    If this is what you so want, then say this today with me: 
				 
				 
				
				I confess I am a sinner Jesus, yes today it is true 
				There is no other way to salvation, other than the Cross through 
				You 
				I confess I am a sinner my Jesus, forgive me of my sin I pray 
				I claim my salvation by Your Blood and now unto You I say. 
				 
				Please come into my life Jesus, to become my Lord 
				Please come into my life today, Christ to be my King, 
				Please come into my life today, for I am a sinner indeed 
				And only You can set me free, forevermore from my sin. 
				 
				By the Power of Your Blood, You shed for me in Love 
				Upon the Cross of Calvary, where You bore my sin one day 
				Please come into my life to fill up the emptiness within 
				Yes please come into my life now, so that I may, I pray. 
				 
				Begin my new life in You my Lord, as a child of God today 
				Washed clean by Your Blood, from the power of all sin, 
				A new life in You, forevermore My Lord Jesus Christ 
				From now on and forever, as a child of the King. AMEN !!! 
				 
				Thank You my Jesus, Thank You for becoming My Saviour, My Lord and 
				My King today !!!
