My Heart Dances

My heart dances at the sound of His name,
At the sound of my Savior's name.
Joyful music in my soul overflows,
Jesus, name above every name.
My heart dances at the sound of His name,
Blessed name of my shepherd, Lord.
Songs and spiritual hymns to God ever more,
I will sing with a heart of love.

Lullabies of Love

This is a song I wrote in 1995 after the bombing at Oklahoma City. It was for the babies and children who lost their lives. It can also be played as an instrumental.

Lullabies of Love

Angels are watching over the children.
Choirs are singing songs of love.
Jesus is holding His little ones near,
Close to His heart of love.
Guardian angels sing lullabies,
Sweet melodies, soft lullabies.
Guardian angels sing lullabies,
Sweet lullabies of love.

Angels are watching over the children.
Choirs are singing songs of love.
Jesus is holding His little ones near,
Close to His heart of love.
Jesus is holding loved ones near,
Holding His sheep, in strong arms.
Jesus is holding loved ones near,
Close to His heart of love.

Angels are watching over the children.
Choirs are singing songs of love.
Jesus is holding His little ones near,
Close to His heart of love.
Choirs are singing songs of love,
Sweet melodies, soft lullabies.
Choirs are singing joyfully,
Sweet lullabies of love.

New Songs

He has put new songs in my heart,
New songs in my heart
Songs of hope in the Lord our God,
Flowing from my heart
Flowing like rivers of water,
From the fountain of life,
Songs of joy and gladness,
New songs in my heart.

He has put gladness in my heart,
Gladness in my heart
Songs of joy in the Lord our God,
Flowing from my heart
Flowing like rivers of water,
From the fountain of life,
Songs of joy and gladness,
New songs in my heart.

Peace

Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on Thee.
Because he trusteth in Thee, O Lord,
Because he trusteth in Thee.
Trust in the Lord forever
For in the Lord, Jehovah
Is everlasting strength.
God hath called us to perfect peace,
For He alone in our peace.

Why Art Thou Cast Down

Psalm 42:11
Psalm 43:3,4

Why art thou cast down, O my soul, O my soul?
And why art thou disquieted within me?
Hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise Him,
Who is the health of my countenance and my God,
and my God.
O send out Thy light and Thy truth, and Thy truth.
Then will I go to the altar of God, unto God
my exceeding joy.
