First Love Series

My Lord and my God have mercy on my soul.
Tears declare my intentions as I give you control.

I've lived for myself, this I confess.
Take over my life it's in such a mess.

I worship you Jesus, let your light on me shine.
Darkness you've defeated with love so divine.

Just one perfect life was your virgin birth.
You've shown us God's love cloaked in flesh on this earth.

I'm turning to you Lord and away from my sin.
Obedient and faithful show me where to begin.

Let me walk in your ways and bring glory to your name,
proclaiming your love without any shame.

I will stand before men declaring your truth
as I break from my shell of spiritual youth.

Putting on divine armor I grow into a man,
ready for battle in your wonderful plan.

(Fit for a King)

The example was set by whom I adore.
In His guidelines of truth we fight in a war!

Pray for protection that Christ offers you,
a fine coat of armor shiny and new.

The sword of the spirit is God's holy word,
to use when you're called on, or God needs to be heard.

Placed in its sheath, that's where it rides.
My sword of the spirit I keep sharp on two sides.

His breastplate assures me whatever I do
His righteousness reigns and through Him yours does too.

My shield is the promise of what comes to pass,
as we pray for the day when the trumpet call blasts.

Thank you Lord for my helmet, salvation, the key,
with the blood of my savior was purchased for me.
I've put on my helmet, I hold up my shield,
in God's peaceful footsteps advance through the battlefield.

(Nectar of God's Grace)

On the beach of God's heart I bask in His love.
The light that I'm in, it comes from above.

Here I go through this world, all my sin He'll endure,
from the cross where He hung His blood makes me pure.

As I walk on His shores I've a glow from within.
It's there as a statement to share with all men.

Repent of your sins become God's reborn sons.
Come up out of the water your life's just begun!

[ The Son of God tans from the inside out!]
