When Satan comes lean in the Lord…

When Satan comes lean in the Lord…

A prayer to Heaven, to my glorious Lord who lives there shared this song with me in the wee hours on my birthday morning when Satan tried his hand at taking away the happy things of Gods plans for me today by stealing peace, love centred happiness. Satan, for who he is threw a blood curdling scream from my child breaking dawn, relentless, stealing my inner peace (and sleep) and threw me into overwhelm… They settled, the rooster at 5:20am which I haven’t heard for months starts crowing, and not long later someone’s tooting out the front several times, then little footsteps and flicking the light switch from my kids room, anxiety trying to click in – well, called you out Satan, gifting me overwhelm, anxiety, fear and more as a birthday gift – I caught you out and the gift? I’m giving it to my father in heaven – so watch out, he will make you a footstool in his son’s name.

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear Lord let your light shine,
Shine your light,
Let people see your might,
Reigning down from heaven above,

Lord with me,
Show me your mercy,
Shine your light from heaven above,
When I am weak, you’re great,
Lord shine that heavenly face,

Lord I’ll be, at your mercy,
Pull me through what comes my way,
Lord guide me,
Lord bless me,
God show me you’re sweet grace,

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord,
Bring your grace,

Lord lead me,
Lord guide me,
Lord live in me your heavenly way,

Flood my body, with your mercy,
Shine your light through my face,

Dear dear dear Lord,
Dear dear dear Lord,
Oh, gift me with grace,

Dear Lord, oh dear Lord,
Bless this place,
You’re mighty,
you’re presence,
Your gifting grace,
Your in my place,

Lord fill me, Lord fill me,
Fill up that empty pit inside,
That empty feeling, at your mercy,
The one where the darkness tries to reside,
Fill with your presence,
Fill with your glory,
Lord fill me with your non parting way,

Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Dear dear dear Lord
Fill me here,

Oh Lord fill me,
Godly,
Help me stomp that serpents face,
Crush with my heel,
Under your glory,
Bring victory to your name,

You Overcomer,
Changer,
Let me be your different way,
Lord fill me,
With your glory,

Lord shine your light through my face.

Dear dear dear Lord,
dear dear dear Lord,
dear dear dear Lord, ahy-men.

For Myself

When I restring my guitar,
I break a peg,
So I order some new stuff,
Here before long enough,
I’m playing again,
More than twinkle twinkle little star,
My own shiz,
I’m doing my own biz.

For when I play my own song,
It comes from my heart,
Those feelings I felt,
Relived, healing.

I choose what I sing,
I choose what I write,
When I write it my way it comes with good might.

There’s enough in my life to fill up a book,
You have no idea the effort it took,
To build up myself,
To get where I am,
Confidence and vulnerability.

To say with each string,
What my heart is feeling,
It took a new form, uncovering.

To play out this beat,
To play out a tune,
It’s all coming out of my fingers so soon.

As I tune my guitar,
To play more than the star,
I want to try something else,
I want to raise my bar,

So I’ll start at the bottom,
I’ll start with my hand,
Fixing up my guitar,
I’ll work it out,
I use to go sit in a pout,
Recently I got the courage to let it all out.

I began writing,
I began rap,
I began singing,
I began, chap,

When I’m done,
I’ll talk to you,
Yes I’ll come,
And I’ll ask you,
If you want a song,
For a loved one,
For someone to sing along,

A life story,
A memorable moment,
Snippets of the day,
Captured in a forever song.
