                    My Song to the Lord
My God is to be highly exalted and praised,
       He is my strength, my deliverer, 
               my protector.
 And as I come before His throne of grace.
 I sing to Him this song of love and devotion:
 
           O Lord, You are my God. 
           There is none like You.
           You bring to me Your 
          inner peace and quietness.   
        In Your mighty right hand there 
                is much power.
         As you lead me to victory 
             against my enemies.
 
     I see Your unleashed burning anger 
           as they are consumed,
     Yet, the greatness of Your majesty 
           shows forth in Your love.
         Who is like You, O Lord? 
         You are awesome in glory,
             Majestic in holiness, 
        and Your wonders are to behold.
 
         Your unfailing love leads me 
        and Your strength guides me.
      I praise You as my El-Shaddai, 
             our God Almighty.
        Lord, You are all that I want 
              and all that I need.
        You will reign forever and ever 
                  in my heart.

                     To Jesus, My Savior

   This morning, my Bright Morning star, 
                          when I awake,
      I will lift up my voice in praise 
          because You are my Creator,
            And You give life to everything.
 
I will kneel before Your throne of grace, 
                                 my King,         
 And thank You for the songs that I can sing.
 I will surrender my all to You, O loving God
    And open my heart that I may know 
            Your will for my day.
 
 This afternoon, before I run hither and yon, 
                                my Master,
     I will ask You to guide my path in work 
                              and in play.
         Before I study Your Word, 
            Wonderful Counselor,
      I will ask for Your Wisdom as 
        I seek to know more of You.
 
     I will ask for guidance and direction, 
                         and Your strength.
    This evening, before I settle down, 
                          Almighty God
               I will ask You 
        "where do You want me to be?"; 
                and then obey.
         Your desires for me are exactly 
                what I want, too.
 
Before I ready myself for bed, My Redeemer,
   I will ask You to forgive any sins that 
                      I may have committed.
   And Lord Jesus, I will once more come 
            to Your throne of grace,   
      To intercede for those who are 
               in need of You.
        I will thank You for all that 
        was accomplished in Your Name,

       I will give You the glory and honor 

                    You deserve.
 
  I will ask for peaceful rest for the night,
                 That I may awake tomorrow
    To once more praise and worship You,
 For You are worthy of all worship and praise.
 
               My Love and Devotion,
                         Always and in All Ways,
                      Carole

                        The Perfect Rose
                     
                  

 When I see a perfect rose
   I see my Savior, Jesus,
    The Rose of Sharon
 
        When I feel the thorns,
I see the crown of thorns on His brow.
   The blood I bleed is His blood
         Rushing through me.
 
          Cleansing me from my sins.
              Because I am saved,
       When I smell its sweet fragrance
       I know it's the aroma of Christ.
             It's the smell of life.
       But to others who won't believe
          It is the stench of death.
  
              It stirs up a memory,
                  All of my emotions are there.
              I thank You, God, for spreading
          The fragrance of Jesus everywhere.

Gratitude
                 

         O Lord, You are my strength, 
               my Deliverer, too.
           I love You, Lord, my trust is in You.
 I call upon You, Who is worthy of my praise.
         Because You have saved me, 
           my hands will I raise.      
  
            In my distress, I called out in pain,
         I cried to my God and it wasn't in vain.
             I know that He hears me, 
               my channels are clear   
           I know that He loves me, 
             so why should I fear?
  
     He delivers me daily from enemies strong,
      Though they tempt me I will do no wrong.
                  My God delights in me and 
                   rewards me with blessings.
           He knows that I love Him, 
             and that is refreshing.
  
I have kept His ways and not departed from Him.
       I 'm sure that His judgments won't 
                       make me feel grim.
          He will light my candle though 
              it may be still be dim.
           He enlightens my darkness 
           I can always depend on Him.
