How do I count the ways of Your infinite Mercy, for such acts of love towards me? Where do I begin to relate my love and adoration to you, my King? If you would so direct, I’d write a song and tell of your wonders, for You are the greatest Friend that one could ever find. My heart and soul aches for You, Lord. I long for you in a dry and thirsty land. You are my LIGHT, in darkest night, my strong high tower of defence. There is no love on earth which compares to yours, Father. How do I love Thee, my Prince of Righteousness? How can I ever find the words to tell of Your goodness and extended grace?1
Take me Lord, to you River of Power and glory that flows from Your throne. Draw me to Your side and set me aflame in the power of Your Zeal; that I am clothed to do Your good will. Oh precious Lamb, gentle Shepherd of Calvary, wash these eyes of clay that I might truly see~ ALL that You want for me. Clothed me in Your garments of praise, I magnify Your Name; not even angels understand Redemption (in depths of worship), like one who where lost then found again. Father, my perfect Peace and Truth, like no other Father I’ve known; You’ve always been there for me, even when I was blind and alone. 2
I am so unworthy to sit at your fee; though Your love and grace bids me come. You endured that cross of terror, Lord, that I be not undone. It’s hard for me to conceive how one Divine would yield His ALL. No faithfulness really hasn’t been a consistent trait of mine; and it‘s taken me a while to heed Your call. Like the ‘protocol’ I’ve fallen short as well. Oh how grateful I am, to You Lord, that you’ve delivering my soul from sin’s hell.3
Lord God Supreme, creator of everything (even my heart anew), help me Lord~ to bring glory and honour to You. Please, Holy Prince of PEACE and VICTORY, deliver me from selfishness and pride. Lead me beside Your still crystal waters of reality. I want to walk humbly at your side, most High and Holy One of eternity and Wisdom’s friend. I love the way you relate and commune with me, loving Holy Spirit, to direct me in the end. Yoke me to Your apostle and intercessor which will help birth Your call and ministry for my life. How I love you gentle Lion-Lamb of God, what wonders I see so rife. Revive me Lord; fill my heart with Your LOVE. Let me soul be rekindled by Your Heavenly DOVE. Hallelujah, Thine be the glory, Hallelujah, amen; You are the WAY~, the TRUTH~, and the LIFE, no matter what men say.4
Your devoted Handmaiden,5
