Almighty Shadow
If you live with the Lord, in his heavenly place, You’ll walk every step with his love and his grace. When storms start to rumble and troubles appear, You won’t need to worry, for God is so near. He’s big and all mighty, so strong and so wise, He watches from above, high in the
More Than a Dream
Oh, God is quite able. He’s big. He’s immense. He does things that go far beyond common sense. He works in your heart. He works in your soul. He takes your broken pieces and makes you whole. More than you dream and more than you say, He’s planning and working in you every day. With
God’s Children
You’re not just somebody drifting around. You’re a child of the King, a truth that’s profound. Though lies may come knocking and try to deceive, With God’s Spirit inside you, just trust and believe. The world may get loud with its shouting and show, But the voice that is greater is the One whom you
Crossing Deep Waters
When you cross through the waters, don’t shiver with fright. God will be there with you, from morning to night. The river may rush, and the waves may roar, But he’ll hold you up till you reach the far shore. If fires should blaze and the heat makes you sweat, Don’t worry. Don’t fret. You’re

Burdens Too Heavy
If your shoulders feel heavy, your feet dragging low, And you’re lugging a weight wherever you go, Don’t carry that pack full of worry and dread. Give it to God, and lift up your head.

What God Wants
It’s not very tricky. It’s not hard to do. God’s made it quite simple for me and you. No riddles or puzzles, no mazes to run, Just three little things—and then you’re done. Do justly, he says, with your hands and your feet. Be fair in your dealings with all whom you meet. Don’t trick
A Helpful Heart
Be kindly. Be kindly. That’s what you must do. Put others in front. Yes, more than a few. Let their needs come first. Let their joys be your aim. And don’t grumble or mumble or play the blame game. Don’t slouch in your work. Don’t just barely try. Don’t say, “I’m busy, so I’ll just
Better Than One
I once met a man with a task in his hand. He tried all alone, with no help on demand. He tugged and he pulled. He huffed and he strained. But oh. Without help, not much was gained. Then William came, grinning ear-to-ear. “Friend,” he said, “that load’s too heavy, I fear. Let’s do it
