The road less traveled...

Have you ever been haunted The way I've been by you? And have you ever felt The measure of the days That I've spent waiting Pining for you? I can't see the sun for the daylight I can't feel Your breath for the wind I don't want to step from these shadows Till You're comin' back again I've dammed these emotions To keep my lanterns lit Shaken by this longing Coursing through my veins In my mind, I can't make sense of it Can't see the sun for the daylight I can't feel Your breath for the wind I get so used to these shadows Are You comin' back again? Do we give up the search and turn out the lights? And give up this Holy Ghost that rattles through the night? Can't see the sun for the daylight I can't feel Your breath for the wind I don't want to step from these shadows Till You come back again Can't see the sun for the daylight Can't feel Your breath for the wind I get so used to these shadows Will You chase away these sha...

Lyrics by William Rees, originally in Welsh; translated into English by William Williams in 1900. ‘Here Is Love’ is a love song which came out of the Welsh Revival in 1904. Here is love vast as the ocean Loving kindness as the flood When the Prince of life, our ransom Shed for us His precious blood Who His love will not remember? Who can cease to sing His praise? He can never be forgotten Throughout Heaven’s eternal days On the Mount of Crucifixion Fountains opened deep and wide Through the floodgates of God’s mercy Flowed a vast and gracious tide Grace and love, like mighty rivers Poured incessant from above And Heaven’s peace and perfect justice Kissed a guilty world in love Let us all His love accepting Love Him ever all our days Let us seek His Kingdom only And our lives be to His praise He alone shall be our glory Nothing in the world we see He has cleansed and sanctified us He Himself has set us free In His truth He does direct me By His Spirit through His Word And His grace my ...

A year ago, my mom shared with me that God impressed upon her heart that I have found my ‘ terebinth tree’ – a place where I belong, a place where God is, a place where I have met with God, a place where I would not have found if I had remained in Malaysia, and it’s my hiding place in Him. In line with this, I did some study on the ‘ terebinth tree’ as mentioned in the Bible. Here’s what I got: Of all the trees God could have chosen to represent Israel in Isaiah 61:3, why did He choose the oak? Maybe the best–known oaks in the Bible are the “oaks of Mamre ,” where Abraham settled in Hebron (Gen. 13:18). Today there is an oak referred to as Abram’s Oak near Hebron . It is 23 feet (7 meters) around, and its foliage reaches a diameter of around 90 feet (27 meters). A few, however, have reached a girth of 70 to 90 feet (21 to 27 meters). The slow-growing tree produces a hard, tough wood that is almost indestructible. After checking 11 different translations of Isaiah 61:3, I found...

If I could describe Your love, how would I describe it? What choice of words would I use? If I were to paint Your love, what would I draw to describe Your love? Would colours be enough or would it remain as a blank white sheet? If I were to sing or write a love song about Your love, how would it sound? Rather, how should it sound? Would there be words? Or would there even be a sound? Selah Take time to ponder while listening to 'Awaken'. God will reveal His love. http://www.box.net/shared/pqqtsp05rp (Taken from Alberto and Kimberly Rivera, Live Soaking Series Vol.1 ) ...More than the watchmen wait for the morning, more than the watchmen wait for the morning, my soul is yearning for Thee.

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart; Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art. Thou my best thought by day or by night, Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. Be Thou my Wisdom, Thou my true Word; I ever with Thee, Thou with me Lord; Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son; Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. Be Thou my battle-shield, sword for my fight; Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight; Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower: Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power. Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise, Thou mine inheritance, now and always: Thou and Thou only, first in my heart, High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art. High King of heaven, my victory won, May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heav'ns Son! Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

Trust me, I have not earned your dear rebuke, - I love, as you would have me, God the most; Would lose not Him, but you, must one be lost, Nor with Lot's wife cast back a faithless look, Unready to forego what I forsook; This say I, having counted up the cost, This, though I be the feeblest of God's host, The sorriest sheep Christ shepherds with His crook. Yet while I love my God the most, I deem That I can never love you over-much; I love Him more, so let me love you too; Yea, as I apprehend it, love is such I cannot love you if I love not Him, I cannot love Him, if I love not you. Christina Rossetti O Love, that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee; I give Thee back the life I owe, That in Thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. George Matheson

Beautiful Mercy by Laura Hackett There is no pit too deep that Jesus cannot reach There is no sorrow so strong that would overtake His beloved one And He’s brought me to the wilderness where I will learn to sing And He lets me know my barrenness so I will learn to lean Beautiful Mercy, do what You have to do Jealous Lover, do what You have to do So I will sing; yes, I will sing I will sing, even in this brokenness I will sing, even in this loneliness http://www.box.net/shared/cfreijqfxc
