by Samaiah from Virtuous Daughters, April/May 2017~Volume 17, Number 1 My dear young lady So full of dreams; (I’m also full of them, too!) If you truly desire Your dreams to come true, You’ve got to stop wishing, and do. You say to yourself, Quite often in fact, “I’m good at such-and such. One day when I’m older And all grown up, It’ll surely amount to so much.” But, alas, dear girl! Life is too short, And now is the time to do. Don’t wait till you’re grown Or too sickly to serve NOW is the time for you! When your life is near over, And you’re weary and worn; Let there be no regrets back. And say to yourself, “I’ve nothing to mourn, I’ve always ben busy on track. “The Lord was at work In all of my days. No one despised of my youth. His grace is sufficient No matter our age And this is a timeless truth.” by Naomi from Virtuous Daughters, August 2017~Volume 17, Number 3 Oh, come and sing unto the Lord,
The greatness of His love proclaim-- Lift up your voice in joyful song, And bless His worthy, holy name. Oh, let it not lip-service be But true from every heart-- A prayer of thanks to God in love, Then He shall never depart. Give honor to His holy name, In thankfulness His works declare-- His love so deep, so wonderful, Oh, tell to Him in song and prayer. For He hath done great wondrous things, For every Christian here on earth, And it must merit all our praise, Now let us sing His worth. For He’s our Shepherd, strong and true, He leads beside still waters clear, Where lush green pastures grow, He nourishes His lambs so dear. His goodness is so marvelous, His mercies, they are ever new-- They ever, ever shall endure, And so His truth shall too! Oh, praise Him for He’s worthy, Lift your joyful voice in song, And from the depths of hearts so grateful, Praise Him for His love so strong. by Naomi from Virtuous Daughters, June 2018~Volume 18, Number 2 Is there not something
we can do to help, The plight of those in sorrow and woe, And ease their burden heavy just a bit, And bring them hope of better days to come? For this is Christ’s command to everyone, Who says that they are striving Him to please, To bear ye one another’s heavy load, And for His glory to do good to all. And there are many burdens small and great, Wherever in this world that you may turn, There’s no doubt some that are inside your door, Oh, lift them for His sake Who loves us so. |
