Fear I’ve allowed fear to creep in Allowed it to dwell in my mind again Forgive me Father for let it back in Cuz it has place in a child of the King Fear you are worthless You add nothing of value You don’t help only hurt Break me down again Fear your best friends aren’t mine Worry and doubt they can leave too Cuz my God holds the world in His hands Why should I fear or worry or doubt Hey you worry and doubt There’s the exit rush on out Don’t let the door hit you Cuz there’s no place for you here Lord remove my fear worry and doubt I trust in You cuz You’re the God of forever Forever You’ve been faithful and forever You will be I am Yours forever and forever holding on to me

Thank You God for all that You are for me Thank You for keeping me from falling away Your joy that I find in Your glorious presence Leaves me speechless You alone are God You sent Your Son Jesus to be my Savior All glory to You You’re majestic in all your ways Your power and authority are unmatched For now and all of eternity thank you Thank You for choosing me for wanting to know me For giving me a second chance when I deserve none I deserve death but You took my place So I could live so I will spend the rest of my life Telling others about You sharing of Your goodness Give me Your words to speak boldness To stand before those who might harm me Because nothing is impossible with God And when You’re in control I have no fear Cuz this life is just a blink this is not my home My home is not here but with You in heaven I can’t wait to go but not before it’s my time Read Jude 1:24-25

Miserable is the only life apart from You God I've tasted and seen what this world has to offer And only offers pain, suffering, and death It doesn’t want the best for me anyway But seeks to kill my joy steal my breath And tries to destroy my life’s purpose Wants me to become blind to Your goodness And deaf to the truth of its bondage Willingly become a slave to my sin Cuz I’ve tasted and seen Your loving kindness There's nothing sweeter than Your holy presence Why would I anything less than all You are You offer freedom and more blessing than imaginable Love that has no limits or conditions attached to it Grace that makes no sense and mercy with no end I choose joy, life, and purpose that is found in You Cuz in You I find more than I could ever need Read Psalms 34:8

I want to get lost in You my refuge Theres no peace apart from You God In Your presence I breathe in peace With my hands lifted I reach to You I press into Your arms my kind Father Desiring You more than the breath in my lungs Cuz You’re worthy of every single heartbeat This life is Yours use me to my full extent I seek You with every muscle, bone, nerve All that I am is dedicated to all of You May worship for You flow out of me like a river And may I never be away from all that You are I love Your presence and find joy in You Eternal blessings are mine thank You Lord Read Psalms 16:11, 21:6, 9:8

When Jesus returns every single knee will bow The world that rejects Him now will see the truth And nobody no not one will be without excuse For the heavens proclaim and announce Your majesty Creation points to You the God of all creation You fashioned every animal, tree, and land With just the sound of Your thundering voice One word You spoke the world into existence And it hasn’t stopped voicing Your praise ever since Broadcasting the beauty of Your construction Look at the stars they shine of Your glory The sun glows of the holiness of the King

Teach me Father to speak truth and life Help me to keep my tongue from speaking evil But to speak goodness and blessing instead Show me how to keep my lips from telling lies But only share truth and point people back to You I want to declare Your Lordship to the masses So that only You receive the honor that is due Cuz the highest praise is what You deserve Let me speak encouragement to build up the family Help me to hold my tongue when its necessary And to speak life and not speak death Teach me to control my tongue tightly So that only blessings overflow from me Let Your sweetness flow out of me to others That my tongue and lips represent You well I want to be peace loving, gentle and kind Help me to plant peace to reap righteousness Read 1 Peter 3:10, James 3:1-18

Words fall short to tell you how much I love You I cant say enough about Your goodness and mercy You know me by name and call me Your own So holy so righteous so wonderful to me Everything sings of the glory of the King You’ve given me more than I could ever need You control the air in my lungs that I breathe The electrical impulse that causes my heart to beat How can I hold back Your worship from my lips I cant and I wont stop singing about You Creation shows the beauty of Your heart My sweet Father Your love overflows into me Peace and joy is mine when I’m in Your presence Why would I want to be anywhere else but here Our time spent together is such a sweet time Read Romans 8:26

Sitting here in Your lap hearing straight from Your heart You remind me of all the wonderful things You have in store Show me the plan that You have written just for me A unique story written specifically just for my life Cuz I am a daughter of You the Almighty King Loved and known by You beyond description You know me better than I know myself And love me regardless of my struggles Youre growing me every day to look like You As I surrender the parts of me for Your glory Show me how to surrender to Your will I relinquish control to You to do what You want Release my itght grip on my life for Your ways

Slow down my racing heart and my busy life Let me just sit and be here in Your presence Allow me to rest in Your arms and find peace Bring me back to You my first love King Jesus My mind has a million things running through it Eliminate all my floating thoughts and ideas Help me to zero in my focus on only You Give me laser focus to keep my eyes on You My eyes are on the eternal prize that awaits me But I just want to spend a moment here Life may never slow down but I choose to sit I lean into You cuz my strength is lacking You hold the world in Your hands and me too You desire my time and my complete attention Jealous of anything I allow to take my time Forgive me for my busyness and our lack of quality time I am here now and I will be back to meet You again tomorrow
