~ A Frosty Pane ~

A frosty pane,
A frozen window,
I write this on.

But, this in vain,
For on the morn,
All the frost will be gone.

Ruth A. Meyer

I wrote this one night in the frost that covered the inside of this window. One of those "midnight inspiration" poems, you know. :) Still, how many vain little things do we focus on every day, and let distract us from thinking on God and His goodness?

~ Hands of Love ~

With loving hands, God made for me,
The butterflies and galaxies!
To cause delight as stars at night,
He fills our hearts with Heaven's light.

My God is love! He reins above.
He made this world with hand of love.
He gave us mothers, daughter too,
Fathers, brothers, me and you!

All are blessed with wondrous hands,
To spread God's love throughout the lands!
But, only under His command.

He, as our almighty King,
Master ever of everything,
Is the reason my heart sings!
Throughout the world this melody ring!

Ruth A. Meyer

Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth."

Psalm 19:1 "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork."

Jeremiah 32:17 "Ah Lord GOD! Behold, thou has made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:"

Song ~ God Has Been So Good To Me ~



Jesus is the reason,
I want to sing this song,
To tell my fellow Christian,
What people say is wrong.

Some people say, "Why serve Him?
What good is God to you?"
But I know ~
My God has been so good to me!

Chorus:
God has been so good to me!
God has been so good to me!
And I don't care what people say,
Since Jesus took my sins away,
Yes! My God has been so good to me!

Jesus is my Helper,
My Teacher and my Friend,
Yes, Jesus walks beside me,
Whose love will never end.
Some people say, "Don't trust God!
He will only let you down!"
But I know ~
My God is taking care of me!

Jesus is my Saviour,
He loves me and He cares,
And all my joys and sorrows,
My Jesus gladly shares.
Some people say "When troubles come,
The Lord will turn away!"
But I know ~
My God will always care for me!

Yes! My God has been so good to me!

~ The Golden Path ~


Onward ever, The Golden Path,

Passing through darkened lands,

Mist, and shadows cover the ground;

Dangerous perils are all around.

Straight, and narrow runs the way;

On it, I know, the wise will stay.

Clouds of fear above me rein;

Thunderous trouble, and lightning snares.

Yet the path will bear no stain;

I will not fall into evil lairs.

Never the path of Truth will bend;

A wonderful place is at it's end.
