PRAY, PRAY Pray, Pray, when things go wrong, And gloomy fears around you throng; The loving God your voice will hear, Look up to Him, He’s always near. Refrain: Pray, Pray though your eyes grow dim, Go with your troubles straight to Him; Pray, Pray, for God understands; Have faith, leaving all in His dear hands. Pray, Pray, be calm and still, Whatever comes must be His will; His promises like buds unfold, Naught that is good will He withhold.

LORD, TEACH US HOW TO PRAY ARIGHT Lord, teach us how to Pray aright, With reverence and with fear; Though dust and ashes in Your sight, We may, we must draw near. We perish if we cease from Prayer; O grant us power to Pray; And when to meet You we prepare, Lord, meet us by the way. God of all grace, we come to You With broken, contrite hearts; Give what Your eye delights to see, Truth in the inward parts. Faith in the only sacrifice That can for sin atone; To cast our hopes, to fix our eyes, On Christ, on Christ alone. Patience to watch, and wait, and weep, Though mercy long delay; Courage our fainting souls to keep, And trust Your though Your Love. Give these, and then Your will be done, Thus, strengthened with all might, We, through Your Spirit and Your Son, Shall Pray, and Pray aright. -- James Montgomery +*+*+*+*+*+*+ -- Luke 11:1 + ...

Jesus, Captain of Life’s Sea I have a friend in Jesus Who guides me through the gale A first mate and a skipper Who helps me to set sail. He offers strength and guidance A helmsman at the wheel An ever-steady beam of light A fortress made of steel. He’s the master of the ocean My refuge and my rock A harbor that I turn to My anchor at life’s dock. He’s a mighty sailing warrior A helping hand indeed A pilot through the churning waves He meets my every need. He’s the One I always run to When the waves won’t let me be The lighthouse that I turn to On a rough and troubled sea. He’s a smoothly sailing vessel A refuge from the storm The gentle breeze that sends me to An island, sweet and warm. He’s a brave and fearless skipper A shelter from the heat Water when I’m thirsty A vessel filled with wheat. He’s a sure and steady sailor My Captain on life’s sea No matter where I journey He goes along with me. -- Marilyn Ferguson +*+*+*+*+*+*+ -- John 1:1, 12 + 1 In the beginning was the Word (the Logos, Messiah, Jesus Christ), And the Word was with God, and the Word was God. + 12 But to all who received Him, who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God. -- John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the Way and the Truth and the Life.
