book excerpt
Available in hardcover, softcover and e-book.
FOR A DEAR ONE HURTING
There is someone who loves you
Yes, someone whom I know
Who loves and protects you
Wherever you may go
Because somebody is praying
Who loves you so dearly
Please trust even though
Each day your heart is teary
Life is like a precious flower
Where joy is hidden when it’s dark
For deep within the petals
Beauty lies dormant when it’s dark
Oh! Allow the warming of the Son
To open up your heart
And like that flower closed so tightly
Unfold so beautifully, each part
For when the warmth of the Saviour
Enters very deep within, be healed
Revealed is softness, pureness, completeness
And the outside forms the shield
Yes, the blemishes of life
Still exist to our unopened eye
But when opened to the glorious Light
Are hidden from on high
Because our Saviour
All He sees, from heavenly places above
Is perfection and unparalleled beauty
In the heart filled with Jesus’ love
So take your thoughts, your tears, your plans
From off what is happening to you
And trust the Lord who knows all
To reveal what He has planned for you
LITTLE BILLY BEETLE AND THE LOST SPOTS
Little Billy Beetle
Called all his friends to play
Please help me find my spots
They can’t be far
They’re hidden in yonder hay
He’d lost them
Whilst helping Farmer Bobby Brown
Bring all the horses in
For it was raining heavily
And they all needed a warm, dry gown
In came the last
Prancing wildly and tossed
Little Billy Beetle high
For he’d been riding on its mane
And now his spots were lost
They had disappeared
Landing in amongst the bales
And then the horses
Started chewing
And suddenly they all heard wails
Wails of laughter, wails of tears
And Billy looked confused
For the horses, they had sneezed
The spots had blown out
And onto the beetle they were once again fused!
THE STORY OF LOVE
Love unlocked pretends to smile
And all the world, it passes by
People never see the pain
Etched deep within each silent sigh
Chorus
The story of love
’Tis Love loving me
’Tis something forever
’Cause love cradles me
Oh! His love cradles me
When love, it rises and breaks free
Captures the moments of past history
It shares joyful pain and misery
And draws Him closer, closer to me
Chorus
The story of love
’Tis Love loving me
’Tis something forever
’Cause love cradles me
Oh! His love cradles me
That’s when shadows of the rainbow hide
A heart intent on keeping love inside
But love breaks free, into arms open wide
And shines eternal glory on a heavenly Bride
Chorus
The story of love
’Tis Love loving me
’Tis something forever
’Cause love cradles me
Oh! His love cradles me
