SILENT VOICES

by Laurette van der Merwe

Silent voices ... words of love.
Can I hear you speak from above?

Am I deaf or maybe blind?
Is there joy that I will find?

Help me Jesus to run the race!
Every step at Your pace.

Teach me more that I become less.
Destroy my worries and distress.

Fill my life with something new,
that I may live each day for You.

Give me hope and give me strength, that I may run the race full length.

Hear my voice and see my face.

Read the rest of the poem Show less

Give me mercy, give me grace..

Plant a seed and make it grow constantly that I will know,

Your love for me is all it takes
to make a difference for our sakes.

Give me peace from deep within,
that I may go no more and sin.

Help and strengthen me that I may pray
to You with victory every day.

Touch my life that I may feel
Your hand on me is very real.

Take the life I give to you.
Clean it out and make it new.

Open my eyes that I may see
what you really mean to me!

AMEN
