Take These Moments

When the wind howls through the trees
Or sunshine sparkles on the sea
When autumn leaves twirl in the breeze
Or snow paints a winter dream
Take these moments
To breathe in deep
The goodness of the God
Who made all you see

Feel the Rain

Dark or light
What is your choice?
Truth or lies
What holds you tonight?
You can open your heart
And allow it to change
Let go of the fear & feel the rain
Falling down from the Father above
He is near
Nearer than your broken heart
Closer than the doubts swirling inside
He’s holding you together
When you cannot feel
Hearing your soul’s cry
When you cannot speak
Catching every tear that falls silently
It’s here
In the storm
That He brings you peace
Rest in the middle of a restless sea

Homesick

Homesick
For a country
Across the sea
Where the rocks cry out
And the desert blooms
Where the language is living
Though it once was dead
Where history is hidden
Along the highway bends
Where skylines rise
Along the sea
Where Bedouins quietly
Lead their sheep
Where the stones are golden
And the stars sing
The promise of how many
Your people will be
A land so ancient
And yet so new
A land of prophecy
Coming true
How I long to fly
To you

On the Galilee

I wasn’t there
On the Galilee
Tossed by the storm
Of the raging sea
But I’ve felt His peace
Cover me
He calms the storms in me

Songs of Zion

These voices blend
Both young & old
In tune to hymns
Your glory told
I’ll miss this sound
The peace here found
But I’ll join the chorus
Across the sea
For in all the earth
Your praises ring
Songs of Zion
I’ll still bring
My heart will always sing

Offering of Praise

Quiet my soul
When I’m afraid
Speak
Dear Yeshua
Your words
Of faith
Come calm
The storm
I’m tossed
By the waves
Whisper
Shalom
Bring me
Home
Yahweh
All I have
Is this offering
Of praise
Simple
And human
Yet touched
By Your grace
I will sing
For You
All my days

Soon I Will Fly

Soon I will fly
Over the Atlantic
Crowded in an airplane
Sleepy
Restless
Excited
Soon I will see
Those ancient walls
Soon I will sing
In Zion’s streets
Soon
I’ll fly away

Sky & Sea

The endless blue
Of sky & sea
Salty air
Breathe it deep
Warm sand
Beneath my feet
Children laugh
As seagulls sing

The waves crash
Broken peace
Awake from the dream
Enough to see
Summer is slipping
Away from me
Soon to autumn
We’ll be

Flying

The sun is setting
In shades of pink
At the end
Of the sea of clouds
It reflects on the silver
Airplane wing
High above the ground

Sailboat

Like a sailboat
Tossed by the sea
Almost sinking
In the vast
Dark
Deep
I’d be lost
Empty dreams
If You didn’t ride
These waves with me
