My Son Stand Firm

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 31, 2021

My son, stand firm when evil comes
Against you as a flood
When you’ve done all to stand, then stand
Full armored on the Word

For God will raise a standard
Against the enemy
Though they come from one direction
In seven they will flee

Clothe yourself in righteousness
Seek wisdom with your heart
She’ll protect and she’ll watch over you
And precious truth impart

Hold tightly to instruction
Guard it well, for it’s your life
Seek knowledge, understanding
Shun all wickedness and strife

Pay attention, listen closely
For My Word is life to you
And health to all your body
And your life it will renew

You’re in the Wind

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 30, 2021

You’re in the wind, the Summer rain
The dove’s sweet song, the fertile plain
The rustling leaves, the rippling steam
My Love, You are in everything

Within the stars I see Your face
The moon reminds me of Your grace
The sunbeams warm me as Your love
You’re in the snow white clouds above

You’re in each song of praise I sing
You are my awesome God and King
And every day I’ll walk with You
For You have made my life anew

 

 

My Daddy God I Love You So

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 29, 2021

My Daddy God I love You so
Without You, Lord, where would I go
My Daddy God I trust in You
There’s nothing that You cannot do

My Daddy God I come to You
With every joy and sorrow too
For I know You are always here
To share each joy and dry each tear

My Daddy God in You alone
I am fulfilled, my sins atoned
Within the shadow of Your wings
Safe and secure, how my heart

I Will Sing to You

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 28, 2021

I will sing to You a love song
From the bottom of my heart
I will sing of love eternal
For in You love had its start

I will sing of endless mercy
That has set the captives free
I will sing of living water
That is bubbling up in me

I will sing to You a love song
As I dance before Your throne
I will sing of all the glory
That belongs to You alone

I will sing because You’re worthy
I will left Your name on high
For You are my heart’s desire
I will praise You, Adonai

My first Love, Most Precious Love

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 27, 2021

My first love, most precious love
I long for You embrace
My spirit is enraptured when
I look upon Your face

Most precious is Your love for me
More than the air I breathe
You know that I would die for You
It is in You I live

Take everything I have to give
My spirit, heart, and soul
My life is Yours forever more
To please You is my goal

 

Tears of Joy

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 26, 2021

These tears are tears of gratitude
These tears are tears of love
These tears are tears of utter joy
My Father God above

These tears are tears I can’t contain
These tears come from within
These tears are tears of wonderment
Fed from the Spirit Spring

These tears and laughter mingle
These tears that freely flow
These tears are tears of reverence
Because I love You so

 

Every Day I Love You More

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 25, 2021

Every day I love You more
In Your love I am secure
You’re the Bread of Life to me
Living waters, flowing free

In my heart there’s ecstasy
Knowing You are here with me
Your sweet touch brings joy untold
Your caress is more than gold

You give gifts so generously
You whisper secrets lovingly
Transforming me from day to day
To be like You in every way

This Country’s Filled with Hatred

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 24, 2021

This country’s filled with hatred
Based on fear and prejudice
So much violence, so much unrest
And so much unhappiness

So many thefts, so many muggings
Countless murders, rape and strife
Demonstrations, protest marches
Looting, senseless loss of life

Innocents are doused with petrol
Set alight midst cheering crowds
They are stoned and mutilated
No-one heeds the pain filled shouts

Pangas, AK47’s
And Bazookas now abound
Toys no longer interest children
They prefer the killing grounds

But within this land of darkness
There is also so much love
And compassion in the people
Born again of God above

 

My Love is Like a Breath of Spring

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 23, 2021

My love is like a breath of Spring
His voice the cooing of a dove
His song that of a nightingale
His laughter rich and full of love

His eyes reveal His inner thoughts
His thoughts a harvest of  ripe wheat
His smile lights up the darkest night
His words a pomegranate sweet

His hands strong as a mighty tower
Yet soft as down upon my face
His arms are like a mighty fortress
And I am safe in His embrace

 

Protect Your Daughter Israel

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 22, 2021

Hem Israel in behind and before
To keep every evil at bay
For her salvation is surely at hand
May Israel repent in this day

And, Father, I pray You’ll protect Your flock
Against powers who seek to destroy
May the seed that is planted, bear fruit, every one
May Your chosen rejoice with great joy

Open blind eyes and make deaf ears to hear
The truth that’s been hidden so long
For till Israel comes in, we will not be complete
In Your strength make her perfect and strong

The land of the promise is under attack
And the heathens seek to control
The West Bank and Gaza, and all they can grab
Lord, restore her and make her whole

A pagan temple defiles the place
Where Your holy temple stood tall
Destroy this abomination, my Lord
See the tears at the wailing wall

Embrace her again as You did long ago
Hide her under Your wings in this day
May she know her Messiah who’s waited so long
For her love and acceptance, I pray
