You only do I seek with all my heart, That we may be as one, ne'er to depart Just as the tides rule seas in mighty ways You rule my soul completely all my days. Your waves of Grace wash gently on my shore, Debris of all my sin shall be no more. And as the sky turns gray o'er roiling sea, Fierce winds of change and storm filled memories, All vanish come Your Son's arising morn. Dawns birth of days, a new soul is reborn. A newborn babe now plays upon your shores; A child once more on wings of Grace doth soar. |

Ellie, Beautiful praise and worship poetry, wonderful use of natures scenes for your illustrations of your relationship with God and His Son. I was blessed by the reading of this poem. Dennis :^) Moonbeams radiate When the veiling cloud has passed Playful shadows dance Dennis L. White :^) |

Ellie, WoW!!! I mean, Wow!! This poem says so much... "Your waves of Grace wash gently on my shore, Debris of all my sin shall be no more." When young people or new christians, with no exposure, to the teachings of God, think it impossible (or, expect it to be, too hard) to live a sin free life! ..and here you show...it is impossible and God doesn't expect us to be sin free or perfect.. (only know of One-Jesus)! Each time we ask Jesus to forgive our sins, "Debris of all my sin shall be no more." each day, each sin, he forgives and the sin is outta there!! You know I love this one! Sorry for rambling again...and again.. Marcy |

Ellie~ How lovely are your phrases in His praise. 'Your waves of Grace wash gently on my shore' When the tide Oh, when the tide of His ever caring grace comes rolling in Across the shore of me I'll be washed forever free from my sins from my sins He's set me free When He lifts me to the land and holds me gently in His hand The tides of His salvation will set me free Oh, when the tide Oh, when the tide Of His salvation comes sweeping across the land I will go Yes, I will go I'll walk forever with Him in the land of promise that He made for me When His glory washes me on the shore so heavenly I will sing His praises yes, His praises for all eternity *Well, didn't you just inspire a song to come bursting forth from this heart. How can I thank you ? I just love it when that happens ! ![]() Bless you~ ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |

Ellie, What a beautiful adn harmonious song that you have shared with us here. I love this. My hat goes off to anyone who can inspire Marge to write an imprompu song!! ![]() Marge, Loved your solo, gal. Marcy was right, he has inspired us all today. ![]() Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

![]() "O'er the rolling sea Upon the wayward tide O'er the rolling sea Upon the ocean wide O'er the rolling sea Upon the waves I'll glide O'er the rolling sea Unto my Savior's side..." Hey, what do You say... lets make "A Song to My God" together. I love making music for our Lord and Savior. What do You say, I really think we'll have a number one hit. God Bless You, Bob <>< |
