Thank You, Lord

Lord, thank You for honey in the rock
For manna to satisfy our hunger
For strength for every new day
For hope for the impossible
For grace so rich 
For love so tender
For courage to persevere
For peace that passes understanding
Thank you for Your work in us
Building, strengthening and shaping us
Till You see Your face in us

Our Only Hope

You calm the raging sea
You bring hope in our hopelessness 
You bring comfort in our loneliness 
You bring joy in our sorrow
Only You can meet our deepest needs 
Only You can hear the cry of our heart
When the stresses of life seem unbearable 
We hear Your voice beckoning us to draw near
We feel Your warm embrace
All that really matters is You
Your presence 
Your great love
Your work in us
Teach us to number our days
Teach us to walk in Your ways
