Please help me when I say, I'll do my best to do the best I can.
Help me please to be more patient and caring,
help me please to not talk when I should be listening
and to think before I speak.
Love your signature strip by the way![]()
===> that you have written in another form modern style or other wise.??
Try writing one which expresses what you are truely feel.
''Lord God I thank you that we meet here not knowing one another or able to read body language.
Thank you for the tolerance we show, which once again is a gift from you.
Forgive me when I slip, raise me up again so that I might grow in my blessing of others,
For we would say that when others read these words of ours they may be built up & see you.''

Never be overwhelmed by decisions, just consider the right ones and your options will be far fewer.
I take it you mean in this sense:
Ephesians 5:19:
speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord...So here is one I have written, although I have not actively been in a Christian band for a while, and this one was not played, in the last one I was in - it's a mellow jazz balad:Colossians 3:16-17:
16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. 17 And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.
I didn't include the verse and chorus divisions - seemed unnecessary.WITNESS OF THE WATERFALL
AS I SIT UPON THIS KNOLL, CONTEMPLATING THE WATERFALL,
MISTS THAT FILL THE AIR WITH SHEEN, SHADES OF COLORS FOR ALL TO SEE.
A PROMISE IT’S A SYMBOL OF, THAT MOST PEOPLE GIVE CREDENCE THOUGH,
KNOWING THAT THE PROMISE IS KEPT, STILL TREAT GOD WITH NO RESPECT.
THE GROUND I’M ON, THE SKY ABOVE, SPEAK OF THINGS MOST PEOPLE KNOW,
THE CLOUDS LIKE FLEECE UP IN THAT SKY, THE REASON MOST PEOPLE ASK WHY?
AND THE ANSWER THAT IS GIVEN, COMES DOWN FROM THE LIGHT OF HEAVEN,
A GOD WHO LOVES US LET’S US SEE, A FRACTION OF HIS MAJESTY,
LOOK AT THE TREES, LOOK AT THE PLANTS, LOOK AT THE ANIMALS LOOK AT INSECTS,
SO COMPLEX IN SIMPLICITY, YET STILL TOO AWESOME FOR YOU OR ME,
TO KNOW THE MYSTERIES THAT THEY HOLD, EVEN THOUGH WE’VE ALL BEEN TOLD,
BY THEIR CREATOR, YES, YOURS AND MINE, IT’S REALLY NOT THAT HARD TO DEFINE
YET SO MANY PEOPLE WORK SO HARD AT IT, IGNORING THEIR PREDICAMENT,
SIN BLINDS THEIR EYES AND THEY SEE A LIE, AND TO MY GRIEF IN THAT STATE DIE,
GOD’S ATTRIBUTES STARE THEM IN THE FACE, YET SO OFTEN THEIR FAITH’S MISPLACED,
SEEKING ANSWERS ALLOWING THEIR SINS, BLIND TO WHERE ETERNITY BEGINS
YET THE WITNESS OF THE WATERFALL, AND ALL THINGS MADE IN NATURE CALL,
HIS GRACE AND ATTRIBUTES SO VISISBLE, STANDING AND LOOKING WILL TELL YOU SO,
AND LISTEN TO HIS SON’S WITNESS, OUT OF PURE LOVE IT COMES TO US,
BODIES COMPLEX THAT HE CREATED, CHILDREN MISBEHAVING HE WANTS AS HIS
IF YOU’LL HEED HIS MERCIFUL CALL, HOW HIS SON PAID FOR THE SINS OF US ALL,
YOU REALIZE IT’S NOT SO HARD, FAITH IS LIKE BREATHING WITH YOUR SPIRIT AND SOUL,
THE COMPLEXITIES OF HIS CREATION, ARE JUST A TOUCH OF WHAT IS IN HIS HEAVEN,
SO LISTEN TO THE WATERFALL, IN IT YOU’LL HEAR YOUR SAVIOR’S CALL…
Love in Christ,
Bill
GOD IS MOST GLORIFIED IN US WHEN WE ARE MOST SATISFIED IN HIM.
This is starting to be a great thread, hope it keeps going.
Thanks to Marcelle & Lily![]()

Who am I, Lord and what have I become?
My faults are all I see
Hundreds upon hundreds
They visit me daily
They float by like a gentle breeze, but bite like the biter cold
In my thoughts they visit me. The good I have done, vanish like the mist
Never to be remembered again
But my regrets, they stay with me
Like a friend they are near me, whispering I am here.
Reminding me of who I am
Then I remember you, Lord
In you, I find my peace, and my comfort
In you, I find my hope and Love and strength
I remember your words and they lift me
And strengthen me
Your words of love they nourish me
I call out and you are there.
In your arms I fall,
Then
I remember who I am and what I have become
Amen![]()
