Yes I Can

   

Lord, with Your Will and Energy, I can do the impossible.

Scripture: Philippians 4:13(KJV), “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”.

Yes I Can

(Words and Lyrics by Lee Waire, copyright 2005, Leap Over Walls)

If I had the wings of an angel. I’d fly to and fro this great land. I’d tell all you fine people, that God says you can…Oh, you can.

If I had ten thousand tongues, I’d proclaim it. I’d make this my favorite song. Jesus said, “Greater things that I have done…You can do”.

Yes, you can…Yes you can.

You can…You can

I can…I can.

I can move that mountain, I can calm the seas. I can walk the waters, for He calls to me.

Calls me up to greater heights than I have ever known. 

Yes I can (Yes, I can…Yes I can)

Yes I can (Yes, I can…Yes, I can)

Yes, I can.

I can do all things through Christ, for He strengthens me. I stand on holy ground and my soul is free. Wherever I am, God is sure to be.

Yes I can (Yes I can, Yes I can)

Yes I can (Yes I can, Yes I can)

Yes I can.

You Brought Me Through

Lord, You brought me through so many situations, that when I look back, I have no words. Thank You.

Scripture: Philippians 4:13 KJV "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me"

A Moment To Reflect

(Music and Lyrics by Lee Waire, Leap Over Walls, 2005)

For the courage to go forward, I had to take a moment to look back. In doing so I discovered I’d have been lost without You to guide me and protect! 

Bright and Morning Star, I can’t praise You enough. For Your Love, and Your Caring,

Upon these things, I reflect.

A moment to reflect, Lord, about the lessons I’ve learned. How some lessons came again, and again, until I gained The Truth in them.

And, only then could I go on! 

You said grow a little straighter, grow each day, a little stronger In My Love.

Just a moment to reflect on how great You’ve been. How great You Are.

You’ve been a shelter when I needed one, a cover from rain and storm. You’ve been a fortress all around me, turning away hurt and harm. You’ve been a watch while I slept Lord, at my front door, side and back.

When I think about how great You’ve been, I’m overwhelmed with how great You are. 

You’ve been the kindness in a stranger when I needed a helping hand.

You’ve been my road made smooth and pleasant, when others walked a bumpy path.

You’ve been my fullness overflowing, from the well that brings forth life.

When I think about how great You’ve been, joy fills my soul with just how great You Are!

How Great!

Just a moment to reflect, Lord, How Great!

Just a moment to give thanks for, How Great!

Just a moment to look back on, How Great You Are! How Great You’ve Been!

Call Him Up

 

I have The Lord on speed dial.

Isaiah 65:24(KJV): “And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear”.

Your Real Connection

Music and lyrics By Lee Waire (Leap Over Walls, copyright 2005)

Modern terms have been coined, to explain the art and the form of being popular. On the go, in the know, are chapters three and chapters four in every do-it-yourself bestseller!

But networking with backslapping, table hopping and name dropping is so much, is so much ver-bi-age. When you come to know, like I know, in your soul, in your soul is your real connection.

They say, they say, Your eyes caress the sparrow. In it’s flight, high or low, You hover over. Well, hover, hover over me. Close to You is where I want to be, making real connections!

Take time, take time, take time to be holy. Morning, noon or night, don’t you know that it’s all right, all right. Situations and relations get a taste of God in action. When you stop, remember…your real connection.

Call collect for joy…Bubbling over. Peace…Unsurpassable. Love…Unconditional. A new life, a new understanding. In the closet of your soul, you have a private telephone! 

In the closet of your soul, make your connections. In the closet of your soul, make your connections. In the closet of your soul, make your connections.

Hello Lord?

We made connections!

Thank You for Carrying Me

 

“Wherever I am, You are Lord. Thank You”.

Scripture (KJV) Psalm 139: 5-10 

5. “Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me”.

6. “Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it”.

7. “Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

8. “If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold thou art there”.

9. “If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea;

10. “Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me".

 

He Carried Me (Leap Over Walls, copyright 2005)

Music and lyrics by Lee Waire

Once I walked along The Sands of Time. I could see the footprints that were mine.       

And though they seem to progress at a steady pace, I could feel a subtle change. Somehow, I sensed a subtle change. Indeed, a subtle change in, “The footprints”, here and there.

So long I pondered: The footprints in the sand. Was this phenomenon, reality? Then I began to pray aloud, “Oh Lord, enlighten me.

You carried me through the “dry” spells and the “try” spells. You let me lean when  my “heyday” turned to “no good news day”. And when I could not stand, You reached and grabbed my hand. You lifted me! Lest my foot should dash a stone…and You carried me!

The ups and downs; The smiles and frowns. The ins and outs; The rapid turnabouts. People look with wonder, how I fare so well! Child, it’s no secret, I’ve had a little help. I have a friend, who doesn’t scold or reprimand. Who doesn’t slight or dislike me, when I can’t always stand.

He had me know, He gently told me so. No debt! No debt! Save love, I owe. For He carries me (He carries me). Thank God I know, this sets me free! For it is God that carries me.

The Lord is My Matchmaker

People try to “Hook you up” but The Lord connects you with the right people, opportunities and situations.

Scripture: Proverbs 3:6 “In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths”.

 When I See God

                                                                                              

(Music and lyrics by Lee Waire, Leap Over Walls, copyright 2005)

When I see God as food, my shelves overflow. When I see God as raiment, He says, “Choose what you want”.

When I see God as all I ever need. He supplies, He provides, more than I can foresee.

Would He give you a stone, if you asked Him for bread? Would He make you a king with no power to command?

Oh ask Him, Thank Him, know that it’s done. See God as the blessing, and the blessing is yours. 

When I see God as money, to spend and to share. So abundantly He blesses, I always have some to spare. I see God as giving, for His nature is so. The way that it’s coming, don’t wonder, just know!

When I see God as Light, in the blackest of nights. My path He directs, my footsteps He guides. When all is a question, I just step inside. I silence my quaking, and let God be God!

When you see God

When you see God

  The blessing is yours!

Loosen Your Grip

 

Loosen your grip from people, situations and things and let The Lord show you how it’s done.

Scripture: (Philippians 4:13 KJV), “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”.

Song: What Is Too Hard For God? (Revised lyrics and music by Lee Waire, Leap Over Walls, copyright 2005)

What Is Too Hard For God?

What is too hard for God?

What is too hard for God?

What is too hard for God?

Ask yourself, “What is too hard for Him?”

The answer wipes away all tears!

The answer wipes away all tears!

The answer wipes away all tears!

Ask yourself, “What is it He can’t do?”

Day fades, at last, into night

But what is night but day without light!

Strong shoulders bend beneath the load.

Ah, but faith stands and shouts, “I know!”

Nothing too hard for God.

Nothing too hard for God.

Nothing too hard for God.

Ask yourself,”What is it He can’t do?”

(Lyrics continue in book, Leap Over Walls by Lee Waire available on Amazon)

Life Goals

 

Be Still and allow God to tell you, "What's next".

Scripture: Isaiah 30:21 "And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left".

What Are You Going To Do?

(Words and music by Lee Waire, Leap Over Walls, Copyright 2005)

What are you going to do with the rest of your life? Can you hear Christ calling you.

Behold, He stands at the portals of your soul and knocks. Won’t you wake up! And answer! Answer the call of The One who loves you best of all.

What are you going to do with the rest of your life? Aren’t you tired of being rained on.

Oh, so patiently, every moment of the day, you can hear Him say, “Come out of the cold, back to the Shelter of My Arms”.

A stumble is still a step, and a fall is merely a rest. Just to turn towards Me, is in itself, a turn forever blest. My House is always open, you can stay eternity…but whatever your choosing, you still belong to Me.

What are you going to do with the rest of your life? Don’t you wish you had some answers? His gift to you is free decision, a made up mind is all you need. 

I put it nicely to you, in a song. 

What are you going to do from now on?
