Do you see what is to come?

Are your eyes fixed on Him?

Looking back where you came from?

 

Can you see with His eyes?

Hear with his ears?

Do you wonder around?

Resting on your own fears?

 

Can He call you His?

Do you call Him Lord?

Are you wasting your life?

Using and reading your sword?

 

Will He call you good and faithful?

Say depart from me?

Give you a robe and crown?

In Heaven forever will you be?

 

What does He really see?

Can others see Him in you?

Where will you spend eternity?

So now, what will you really do?

What do You see in me
I hope it’s just a reflection
That’s where I long to be

Thank You for spending time
With me each and every day
For it is my pleasure dear Lord
To walk with You along the way 

The road is often rough
You know what lies ahead
Direct my every move
By Your light I shall be led 

I know that You are near
Even when I fall astray
Pick me up once again
For today is a brand new day!

But a price must be paid
For it’s all possible there
And true treasure is laid

Infinite possibilities circle
Around each and everyone
No flesh can enter in
All the glory is the Son’s

Everyone, everywhere
Shall Awake, Arise and Advance
For we travel to this place
Stopping short, not a chance

His Unlimited Realm is ahead
It is what we seek to find
Reaching toward His glory
We long to leave no one behind

Your needs will seem so small
When His glory begins to fall
Stayed focused on things ahead
On His name continuing to call

This place He is taking us
Come join in all the fun
The trip is worth the effort
We have only just begun.

Never understand me at all
Think I’m weird or crazy
Many names they may call

But I don’t concern myself
With what they see or do
Cause see I am a child of God
He will, my strength renew

Don’t cry for me, please
Or feel like I am out of place
For He has sent me among you
To show His mercy and grace

I rejoice not because I am healed
But because of who God is
It is a great place to be
Because I am truly all His

There is room for all
Especially each one of you
Hold my hand and fear not
What a ride He will take us thru

You may see me as Autistic
But God sees me as healed
For I am whole in His sight
To me, that He has revealed!!!!

As my life takes a new turn
Things not to stay the same
New things to experience and learn

It is a new place and time
But He walks with me hand in hand
As I trust and follow His way
Living my life as He has planned

Obstacles will guard my path
Laughter and tears will both cross my way
His strength will I lean on
To make it through each and every day

If I am walking alone with Him
Or if I’m sharing my life with another
His strength and guidance are sufficient
To provide for me unlike any other

My life is so precious to Him
I must walk by faith and not by sight
As I set out from here to eternity
Letting my life be a reflection of His light!

That says it all
I AM
For on Him we can call

I AM
What a glorious Father
I AM
To Him I am no bother

I AM
Whatelse need I say
I AM
Come unto Me but one way

I AM
All you will ever need
I AM
At My table you can feed

I AM
Bring all you have to Me
I AM
I will give you life more abundantly

Just try Me and see
Become My little lamb
You will inherit it all
Because truly, I AM.

Was seen a long time ago
Not under lights and fame
But so the whole world could know

Love like no other
Was displayed in His eyes
In the actions He took
Some were so surprised

When He spread His hands
And didn’t cause a fuss
One must have seen the love
Because He was dying for us

No greater love had been given
Nor can or will there ever be
Than the day my Savior died
So that it wouldn’t have to be me

As the days go by us all
Remember how much He gave
The greatest love that was and ever will be
So that the whole world He could save.
