Thoughts running through my head as I think upon Easter Sunday:

The world behind me, the cross before me;

The world behind me, the cross before me;

The world behind me, the cross before me;

No turning back, no turning back.



Though none go with me, still I will follow;

Though none go with me, still I will follow;

Though none go with me, still I will follow;

No turning back, no turning back.

(From I Have Decided to Follow Jesus) anon

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

Jeremiah 32:27

Peace Amidst Pain

Lord, our lives are chaotic

But not without peace

There is pain all around

Yet, we have You


Times may be harder still

But You remain true

Dreams we have yet to fulfill

Aren’t they long overdue?


My life is in Your hands

And there I remain

The things I have lost for Christ

He will count as my gain


The power to overcome

Lies in your Word

It is the fire that burns

In my chest,

It’s my weapon, my sword



Renew my heart

Cause it to worship

Renew my vision

To see your ways

Renew my tongue

To words of praise


And I will follow You

All of my days

For You are holy

And you are worthy

And I will follow You

All of my days.
