Here You came

You brought me the light when I was in the dark & dying,
You brought me the hope when I was sinking in desperation,
You brought me the love when I was losing heart for heart;

What a joy Your love brings to the loveless like me,
what a peace Your hope brings to the hopeless like me,
what a glory your light brings to the lightless like me;

You are who you are to me & to the world,
& with You I am what I am to me & to the world...

Bring me back to life

Hey, do you really listen & do you really see?
Here I am sick & tired & wormed,
Running & running with no face.

Hey, do you really listen & do you really see?
Here I am screaming in silence,
Trying & trying with no strength.

Hey, do you really listen & do you really see?
Here I am burning into ashes,
Whispering & whispering with no words...

Why...?

Why do we miss the roses & see only the thorns,
why do we take the warmth of the sun for granted,
why do we get depressed by the rain of pain,
why do we feel haunted the snow of the past,
why do we ignore the sounds & colors of life,
why do we pay heed to the blues & sirens?

Oh You felt that also

Jesus, I know that night was really cold for You, but this morning I really thanks You for giving me warm clothes & a better place to live;
Jesus, I know that there on the cross You felt thirsty, but this  morning I really thank You for giving me water & filling me with life giving water;
Jesus, I know that morning You felt isolated & rejected, but this morning I really thank You for so many lovely friends & a sweet family;
Jesus, I know those hours You spent in agony which was so cruel, pail which was so brute, but this morning I really thank You for bearing my pain...
