Once an Ill-famed Woman

Lord, once an ill famed woman
So many years ago
Had washed Your precious feet with tears
Because she loved You so

May I too have the privilege
Of kneeling at Your feet
And in such gratitude as she had
Jesus, may I weep

And may my tears be many
May this well never dry
But gush forth living waters
As at Your feet I cry

Lord, and this woman humbly
Used her hair Your feet to dry
Not caring who was watching
Or who was passing by

Lord, may my hair be worthy
To dry the tears away
This hair which You have given
As a covering when I pray

For this hair is my glory
Which You’ve given graciously
But gladly I would rather
That Your glory be in me

Lord, and Your feet with ointment
She anointed with great care
Its costly, fragrant perfume
Completely filled the air

Not one drop did she spare, Lord
She gave it all to You
She knew that You had something
That she badly wanted too

Lord, may the prayers I utter
The way I live each day
Give off such fragrant perfume
Before Your throne, I pray

 

LORD, Out of Your Glorious Riches, We Pray

LORD, out of Your glorious riches, we pray
Strengthen our spirits with power each day
That Christ might dwell in our hearts by faith
As we dwell in the light Your glory and grace

Keep us rooted and grounded, our hearts set above
May we comprehend the depth of Your love
That we might be filled with the fullness of You
As we’re led by Your Spirit in all that we do

Now unto You who are able to give
So much more than we ask or imagine, receive
Our praise and our honour, our worship, our love
All glory belongs to You, Father above

 

Lord Jesus Help Us

Lord Jesus, help us as we grow
In Your love each day
While passing through the troubled waters
Strengthen us, we pray

Take away our human failings
Which stand in our way
Of reaching Your perfection
Keep each evil thought at bay

We’re born in sin, my Saviour
None of us are good
Teach us to overcome all evil
Mold us as You would

Cause the Tree of Life to grow
By pulling out each weed
The fornications, murders, thefts
Lasciviousness, deceit

Pride, foolishness, adultery
Evil eye and covetousness
Blasphemy or evil thoughts
Whichever sins exist

Let us remember Calvary
And that it was Your love
That caused the King of kings to die
To save each one of us

Lord May Your Grace

Lord, may Your grace
Rest upon me each day
May I grow in Your favour
And will every way

Thank-you for all
That You’ve given to me
And all that You’re doing
For me constantly

Thank-you for fighting
Each battle I face
For granting me victory
As I run this race

Thank-you that all
That I’m planning to do
Will bring me success
If committed to You

Thank-you for life
And for setting me free
And thank-you especially
For Your love for me

Lead and Guide Me Holy Spirit

 

Lead and guide me, Holy Spirit
Daily teach me more of You
For Your facets are eternal
And I know so very few

Please reveal to me the power
Of the One who dwells in me
And the love You have toward me
May truth set my spirit free

Teach me wisdom, knowledge, counsel
Understanding, fear of God
May my life be changed completely
As I learn to know Your Word

May I imitate You ever
In my thoughts, my words, my deeds
Help me love the way You love me
Seeing to my brethren’s needs

May I walk in faith unfailing
May each Word I hear take root
May I grow into Your image
Bearing every Spirit fruit
