How do I Describe Indescribable Love

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 27, 2025
How do I describe indescribable love
Or explain unexplainable grace
Or fathom the fathomless might of Your Word
Or the Glory that shines in Your face
The impossible does not exist where You are
The miraculous is commonplace
In Your presence no illness, nor bondage can stay
And even death is laid waste
How do I conceive inconceivable work
Of Your hands wrought by infinite mind
An incredible, unending universe
And Your precious possession: mankind
So I stand in awe of Your awesome throne
Omnipotent, sovereign King
And I worship amazed, Omnipresent God
In Your Light as Your praises I bring
Omnicient Lord of my life I will hide
In the shadow of Your holy wings
In Your secret place I’ll abide evermore
For in love and joy my heart sings

There’s a Song in My Heart

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 26, 2025
There’s a song in my heart
And it tells of GOD’S grace
And His plan of redemption
For this human race
There’s a song in my heart
Of worship and praise
Which I sing reverently
To the Ancient of Days
There’s a song in my heart
That will never grow old
For its source is eternal
Its worth more than gold
There’s a song in my heart
Dedicated in love
And I sing it in joy
To my Father above

You’re the Rock of My Salvation

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 18, 2025
You’re the Rock of my salvation
You’re my shelter from life’s storms
You’re the Alpha and Omega
You’re the Star who greets the dawn
You’re the water in the wilderness
Eternal healing Spring
You’re the beauty of each sunset
You’re my Saviour, You’re my King
You’re my Fortress, my Deliverer
You’re the Wind beneath my wings
You’re my Hope of life eternal
God to whom my spirit clings
You’re the Righteousness within me
You’re the Grace who set my free
You’re my Love without an ending
You are everything to me

Throughout Life’s Path

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 6, 2025
Throughout life’s path You’ve walked with me
And oft’ through harsh terrain
And often I have wandered off
An easier route my aim
And patiently, in infinite love
And grace beyond compare
You waited until I returned
And led me on from there
At times I’d grow too weary
To stand on solid ground
Then You would fill me with Your strength
When no-one was around
And through the years Your steadfastness
Taught me to trust in You
Whatever obstacles I face
In all I say and do
And daily I grow stronger
As I learn to trust You more
For no good thing will You withhold
Of this much I am sure

Your Word is a Burning Lamp

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 5, 2025
Your Word is a burning lamp to my feet
Your Word came and made my life complete
Your Word is the reason I am free
Your Word is the One who died for me
Your Word is my shelter from each storm
Your Word is the reason I’m reborn
Your Word is my Sword against the foe
Your Word is my Guide wherever I go
Your Word is my Rampart and my Shield
Against the weapons my enemies wield
Your Word is the One who supplies every need
Your Word is the nourishment on which I feed
Your Word is the Wisdom on whom I depend
Your Word is my Advocate, quick to defend
Your Word is the Power living in me
Your Word is the Key to my destiny

Father GOD, You Know Me Well

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on January 3, 2025
Father GOD, You know me well
You see each move I make
No thought of mine escapes Your ear
You know each route I take
Before a word is on my tongue
You know what I will say
You hem me in behind, before
Through every passing day
If I should choose to leave Your side
To what place could I flee
If I should travel throughout space
You’d still be there with me
If I should lie down in the grave
You’ll raise me up again
If I should fly to far off lands
Your presence will not wane
For even there You’ll hold me close
And guide me by Your hand
In love too great and wonderful
For me to understand
There is no darkness deep enough
To hide me from Your sight
For darkness is as day to You
And flees before Your sight
Within the darkness of the womb
You made and shaped my form
Since my conception stayed with me
And watched when I was born
All of the days ordained for me
Were written even then
Before one of them came to be
Beginning to the end
How precious are Your thoughts of me
How vast the sum of them
Their number far surpasses all
That I can comprehend

All Thanks Belongs to You oh Lord

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on November 18, 2024
All thanks belongs to You oh Lord
Creator of both Heaven and Earth
God of the seen and unseen realms
Creator of the universe
Yours is the greatness and the power
The glory, majesty and splendour
For everything in Heaven and Earth
Is Yours, oh Lord, forever and ever
Yours, oh Lord, is the Kingdom
You’re in control, oh King of Kings
Wealth and honour come from You
You are the Ruler of all things
In Your hand are power and might
By Your discretion You make great
And give strength to Your chosen ones
Your glorious Name we celebrate

Lord, You Fill My Heart with Songs

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on April 6, 2023

Lord, You fill my heart with songs
Of worship and of praise
In languages known and unknown
Oh, Ancient One of days

Lord, from my heart the river flows
And gushes eagerly
Out of my mouth as love wells up
From deep inside of me

LORD, You fill all of my being
With Holy Spirit fire
And in Your presence I am strong
Your will is my desire

Lord, Your Word is life to me
You are the air I breathe
You are the essence of my being
To You, my Lord, I cleave

 

I Know I Can Have

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on October 28, 2022

I know I can have
Whatever I say
For I walk in Your shadow
Of Your love each day

If I just believe
And not doubt in Your Word
What I ask in Your name,
I’ll receive, precious Lord

For Your covenant cannot
Be broken, I know
Every promise is mine
That You made long ago

I’ve no words to thank You
The way that I aught
For the price that You paid
When my freedom was bought

Inspired by Ps 113:5-8

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on August 20, 2022

Who is like the LORD our GOD, the One who sits enthroned on high, who stoops down to look on the heavens and the earth?He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap; He seats them with princes, with the princes of their people.He settles the barren woman in her home as a happy mother of children.
Praise the LORD. Psalm 113::5-8

Our GOD who is omnipotent, whose throne is above the heavens and earth, who stoops down to look upon this entire universe, knows each of us by name and even knows the number of hairs on our heads. This omniscient GOD sees everything at a glance, even the smallest life form deep within the earth and in the depths of the seas. He sees the hidden tears shed in silence and hears them when they fall. There is nowhere too dark for His light to penetrate, nor too distant for him to see. This omnipresent GOD is with each one of us, seeing our strengths and our weaknesses, our darkest deeds and our deepest desires. There is nothing hidden from His sight. He sees the needs of the homeless and the needy who trust in Him and provides them with food and shelter. He lifts them out of their world of hopelessness and sets their feet on solid ground. He hears the cries of the barren woman who trusts in Him and makes her a happy mother of children.

Our GOD alone is worthy of all praise. Bless His holy Name.
