Search My Heart O God !

Search my heart each day O God
Try me today I pray,
Cause me to walk ever humbly Lord
Before You everyday.
Search my mind each day O God
I pray that it be made pure,
Cleanse it Lord as I meditate
On Your Promises ever so sure.
Search my life each day O God
In all I say and do,
That I may bring You both the Glory
And the Honour for which You are due.
Search my ways each day O God
As I seek daily to serve You,
May my ways be righteous and pure
Amidst all You take me through.
Search and cleanse me O Lord I pray
Of all the wrong I have ever done,
Create in me a pure clean heart
That together we may be as One.

Forgive Me Lord For Ignoring You !

O Lord You are ever so caring
You are so faithful and true,
O Lord You are never far away
As I daily abide with You.

Though many times I have ignored You Lord
And instead have gone my own way,
And have wondered why times were so hard
To face things day by day.

Many times I have so felt in my heart
Though Your Voice I did not hear,
Your guiding words that came to my mind
As to You I drew ever so near.

Many times I have battled within my being
As I have sought to Lord serve You,
With the strong desires within my life
I have struggled to be faithful and true.

Many times I have struggled Lord by myself
And have sought alone to cope,
Forgive me Lord for so ignoring You
And acknowledging You as my only Hope.

Dear Lord Please Forgive Me !

Dear Lord please forgive me for those many times
I have gone away from You,
And sought to cope with, by my own strength
All that You have taken me through.

Dear Lord please forgive me for those many times
I have done things that were not right,
And acted in disobedience to You
Both in the daytime and at night.

Dear Lord please forgive me for those many times
I have failed to hear Your voice,
And ignored what You spoke to my heart and mind
At times when faced with choice.

Dear Lord please forgive me for those many times
I have failed to do Your Will,
As I have struggled alone to cross some valleys
And tried to climb life's various hills.

Dear Lord please forgive me for those many times
I have failed to acknowledge Your Grace,
And how You have kept and watched over me
In Your Love amidst all I have faced.

Forgive Me Lord I Pray !

Please forgive me Lord at this time I pray
For what in Your eyes I have done wrong,
In failing to listen to Your Still Small Voice
And not looking to You to be made strong.
For I've often ignored much of what You've said
And chosen to do as I felt to do,
Instead of crying out to You in my weakness
And putting all my trust in You.
I have rushed ahead of You at different times
And failed to wait on You each day,
In fear that I would lose my dearest friend
With whom I so long to stay.
I cry out for mercy from You Lord at this time
I ask please cover me by Grace,
Forgive me Lord of all my sin I now pray
And strengthen me amidst all I do face.
For Lord in my weakness I may fail again
But by Your Enabling am I able to stand,
Amidst the temptations I face each day
As I seek Your Guiding Hand.
I thank You Lord You are a merciful God
And that You do ever so care,
For each of us Lord amidst all that we do
No matter the situation, time or where.
Forgive me Lord of when I've been presumptuous
When I've done things that I felt were maybe wrong,
In the hope that You would forgive me if this is so
In my weakness please make me strong.

There Is Only One Way !

There is only one Way, to bridge the Great Divide
Between God and man and every one must decide,
To step onto that Bridge, which is Jesus Christ the King
Or remain where they are now, forever as slaves of sin.
Yes as slaves of sin my friend, for all eternity yet to come
Or become a child of God, through Christ, God’s Son,
Yes as a slave of sin destined for, damnation for eternity
Or as one of God’s Children, through the Cross of Calvary.

Through the Blood that was shed, on the Cross for man’s sins
So that through Christ’s Blood, every believer could begin,
Along the road, yes the Cross, to take them across the Great Divide
Now my friend the choice is yours to make, now you must decide.
As to whether to believe in Jesus Christ and so ask Him into
Your life today so that He may, then also become for you,
Your Saviour and Your Lord, yes your Redeemer today
If this is what you now so want, then with me say:

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 !!!
