Suddenly in Time
Eons marked in time, an ocean drop by drop
Faith tested to the nth, suddenly to be here
Sand through an hour glass, seeds promising the crop
Eons marked in time, an ocean drop by drop
Cathartic rhythms purging like the wild hop
You wanted wine, we gave you beer
Eons marked in time, an ocean drop by drop
Faith tested to the nth, suddenly to be here

Sing Your Song
Sing your baptism
You have been given the song
The Wind of the Spirit will fill your lungs
But the notes are yours to form.

Choice
Jesus, high, lifted up, I adore You.
Jesus, high, lifted up, I praise You.
Jesus, high, lifted up, I love You.
Jesus, high, lifted up, I choose You,
As from the beginning, Jesus,
You chose me to be.Copyright 2013 Joann Nelander
Everyday
Everyday is good.
Everyday is holy.
All days are present
In Your Light.
With my life lived
Under Your gaze,
I implore of You
A river of love.
Pour the many waters
To wash the dross away,
Then You, Yourself,
Provide pure gold.
Through the heart
And hands of the Virgin,
Purify my gift each day
As I sigh to You.
All my ways,
The moments now arrayed
Gilded by Christ
Shine in holiness.
And, though my acts
Be as the poor trinkets of a child,
Your wearing of them,
In Our Father’s Presence,
Makes Him smile.
Look on me loving You
With every beat of my heart,
Skipping happily,
As a playmate at Your side,
Everyday.

In Faith
Pillar of Fire,
Pillar of Cloud
Pillar of protection.
You advance,
Always onward,
No retreat.
Faith leads.
Obedient, we follow,
Abandoned to Your Will.
Holy Light,
Though dark the night,
Secure respite.
Heavenward,
Hallowed rest,
Safely home.
