10/1/17 Through 10/7/17

10/1/17 Through 10/7/17

Sunday

Tell me who did the Father's will 

In which did conscience now instill

A gleam of hope to save the soul

A step to change and make one whole?

Repentance for rebellious ones

Can make of us the Father's sons

The humble one who chose the way

In spite of what he first did say

Monday

Most brilliant guardian from above

Guide my steps in the way of love

Make safe the path I tread each day

And guide me in the righteous way

Keep evil far away from me

So every day I clearly see

The way the Lord has planned for me

To live with Him eternally

Tuesday

Fire of heaven please descend

Put evil in me to an end

Grant a change of heart and mind

Let Christ, in me, the others find

Fire of love now purify

Your graces all, now please supply

May all I meet now clearly see

In truth, You really dwell in me

Wednesday

There's nothing there when looking back

That I should want to keep

For now I know, I nothing lack

He fills me while I sleep.

Unworthy those whose heart remains

Within the realm of flesh

They never see true love contains

The holy and the fresh

Thursday

The harvest is rich, the laborers few

Why should you think He doesn't want you?

The Master has said, "The Kingdom's at hand"

So spread the good news throughout all the land

Devour the Word and bring it to all

Proclaim it aloud to the great and the small

If they will but listen and peaceable be

Your peace will descend and set their hearts free

Friday

Turn around and turn away

From all the trappings of the day

We have been so steeped in sin

We're blinded when we look within

We've come to see our way as right

For we have taken to the night

Where shadows hide our petty sins

And boastful pride of self begins

Saturday

The trials we face are ours alone

Yet God has sent One to atone

His precious Son, the spotless Lamb

The Savior, and the great I AM

So trust in Him the Father sent

And turn from sin to then repent

Cast aside your chains and see

Obeying Him's what sets us free

Turn to Him and find again

The joy that you once knew back then

Turn away from gods of wealth

And let the Lord restore your health

For though He spurns the wild type

He still receives the childlike

Rejoicing when He comes to see

The gift of faith take root in thee.
