Who is there like You, my Fortress, my Tower
Who is there like You, all glorious in power
Who is there like You, triumphant in all
By Your holy right hand Your enemies fall
Who is there like You in mercy and grace
Who in this universe could take Your place
Who is there like You, who can compare
To Your glory and splendour, found anywhere
Who is there like You, able to reign
In justice and truth, LORD, who can proclaim
A love such as Your which fills all the Earth
Which loves the unlovely and gives man new birth
LORD, I declare that there’s no-one like You
You’re holy and righteous in all that You do
No nuclear power compares to Your might
Your reign is eternal and awesome Your light

No place that I would rather be
Than in Your presence, God, my King
I feel Your love wash over me
Your joy fills my entire being

It’s hard to leave this place of prayer
While I’m in Heaven’s perfect realm
I feel Your peace embrace my form
Emotions in me overwhelm

But Lord, I know that though I leave
This place of prayer that means so much
Our talks continue through the day
And I still feel Your loving touch

My Lord, I can’t imagine life
Without the knowledge of Your love
Or precious moments that we share
Those moments never seem enough

Once more I see the beauty of nature
Created by the Master’s hand
The trees in various shades of green
Bowing in reverence across the land

As lovingly they caressed by the breeze
And kissed by the morning sun
Flowers arrayed in colours so gay
Their magnificent perfume overshadowed by none

The majestic mountains reaching up to the sky
In all their glorious splendour
The snow white clouds in skies of blue
The doe with eyes so tender

The bubbling springs and streams so gentle
Raging rivers after a storm
The turbulent seas with their fleeting emotions
The indescribable wonder of dawn

The sunrise reflecting a birth in the morning
A life through the day, at sunset a death
And portraying Christ in His burial and resurrection
Rising in the East, setting in the West

The golden moon reflecting the sunlight
The twinkling stars that brighten the night
The fireflies glowing as they fly to and fro
Dancing and singing in great delight

The croaking of frogs leaping in exultation
The melodious song of a nightingale
The mournful owl calling in mock lamentation
The surfacing of the awesome blue whale

The innocent face of a child at play
A blessed reminder of Jesus
Who left His Glory to dwell amongst men
Lowly, inconspicuous

To die for our sins on a cross, hacked and bleeding
Wounded, in great agony
Then I realise that God’s greatest masterpiece
Was my Jesus at Calvary

 

Lord, can it be
This precious love You have for me
Is not just universal love
That covers Heaven, earth and sea

Lord, can it be
You love me individually
That You’re consumed
With love that has no bounds for me

Lord, can it be
That you love me with jealousy
Born from the passion
Raging in Your heart for me

Lord, can it be
That when I sleep, You stay with me
And look upon me tenderly
Devotedly protecting me

Lord, can it be
That You long with intensity
To spend my waking hours with me
In sweet communion
Constantly

Lord, can it be?

 

 

An ostrich is quite stupid
When’re she wants to hide
She’ll make a hole within the sand
And place her head inside

She thinks no-one can see her
For she can’t see the Light
And though she is exposed to all
She thinks she’s out of sight

Sometimes you’re like the ostrich
Your head beneath the sand
Because your thoughts are darkness
The Light you cannot stand

But, like the stupid ostrich
You’re exposed by Heaven’s Light
The only one fooled is yourself
Oh, what a silly sight

 

No pen could write, nor script reveal
The vastness of this love I feel
No ocean could surpass its depth
Nor galaxies exceed its breadth

The wonder of a starry night
Compares not with the pure delight
Of being in my Love’s embrace
For He has saved me by His grace

No song of love could ever express
The wonder of His holiness
Nor artist paint the beauty of
My loving Saviour’s matchless love

 

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

 

Love letters from my Bridegroom
Written centuries ago
Every Word of His is Flawless
Like the love that He bestows

Every promise He has given
He will bring to pass in me
For each Word is Yes and Amen
And will stand eternally

Love letters that I cherish
And hold deep within my heart
Words of life and love and mercy
And of wisdom He imparts

And in turn I write love letters
And He reads each one with care
Then smiles and draws me closer
And in joy I linger there

 

Mesmerized by Your great beauty
Captivated by Your love
Enchanted by Your Majesty
Heart set on things above

Enthralled, Lord, by Your glory
And the wonder of Your grace
Consumed by deep desire
As I look upon Your face

Empowered by Your Spirit
In the shadow of Your wings
Impassioned by Your Word of truth
And all the joy it brings

How precious Lord, to realize
You think about us constantly
Even when we’re fast asleep
Your thoughts outweigh the galaxy

In number they exceed the sand
In love, immeasurable
Your thoughts for us are thoughts of peace
Our wholeness is Your will

Your plans are plans to teach us how
To rule and to subdue
The darkness roaming on this earth
As we are led of You

Your thoughts are thoughts to prosper us
In every single way
In spirit soul and body
As we walk the narrow way

But more than this, You think about
The day You’ll fetch Your Bride
We’ll rise to meet You in the sky
And stay close by Your side
