About Me

My photo
Hi I am a Christian, a nurse, the mother of two grown children and two grand daughters, one grandson, and 3 dogs. I love people and have a huge heart. So why am I blogging? Well I've been told that I need to publish my writings. This seemed to be the easiest way to do that. Also, I want to get out there and live life to the fullest. Empty nests are great because now I get to explore the world. I'm starting right here on my computer. So come along with me and as I learn to fly we'll soar together!

07-16-10 When thank you is not enough I just say your name


When thank you is not enough I can only say Your name
When sorrow overtakes me it is just the same
Your name so sweet to Holy speak
And as I wait to hear Your voice in me
Giving my heart as Your vessel broken and yielded
And I dwell on the words that You have spoken
Thus I come to where Your cleansing blood was given
To the foot of Calvary where Your love flows over me

No heart so pure has ever lived
No love ever given so freely
No light so bright to show the way
No more tender touch of healing

Your heart
Your love
Your light
Your touch
I drink You in
I lay me bare
To walk in Your light
And give my wounds to You

In silence You make Your presence known
Everywhere I look to see You in creation
Yet dwell my eyes on only You the focus of my heart
To catch Your hand and hear Your tender voice
Though none can see the face of God and live
You came to me and let me see Your truth
That pure love is impossible without Your grace
And no one else is able to bring me home

No heart so pure has ever lived
No love ever given so freely
No light so bright to show the way
No more tender touch of healing

Your body carried the weight of my rebellion
Your blood poured out in payment of my sin
Your heart broken to bear this lonely soul
Your desire laid aside to meet the need in me
And all I am and all I could ever want to be
Is not enough to be worthy of this precious gift
The lothsome lost and broken one that I have been
Is only purchased with Your perfect sacrifice of love

Your heart
Your love
Your light
Your touch
I drink You in
I lay me bare
To walk in Your light
And give my wounds to You
