Beyond the Walls

Beyond the wall of sin, I hear His call
Beyond my selfishness within, I hear His call

Once I have invited Jesus in, there is no more wall
Through the Holy Spirit, I understand it all

Thank you, God, for blessing me, giving me the faith to hear Your call
Please, God, give me the courage to use my faith to surrender all

Human touch

The human touch means so much
God planned It that way
From the very beginning, when He formed us from clay

Putting feeling in our bodies and love in our hearts
With human touch, we can never grow far apart

Physical touch may not always be possible 
Showing loving kindness is most probable

Across the distant miles, as we share,
God’s Love will remain because we care

Love

The physical passing of love around, in this life, nowhere can be found
Through a smile, it can travel around the world and infect the whole town 

Kindness and love are very infectious
No mask or pill can adequately protect us

Love is both blind and brilliant
Continuing in our hearts with much resilience 

Passing it on is the key to happiness 
For this truly fills a life of emptiness

Thank you, God

Thank you, God, for your Amazing Grace
Thank You, God, for sending Jesus to take my place

Thank You, God, for your Love. We can't understand
Thank you, God, for sending Jesus to pass it down to man

Thank You, God, for your everlasting care 
Thank You, God, for sending Jesus that I might share 

Thank you, God, for the boldness you entrusted to me 
The strength to tell others how they can be set free
