Arms of Prayer,
Reaching out to bless the world in peace.
This my heart knows
as it silently recites the sacred whisper God bestows.
Hushed, in solemn splendour of an awe-filled realm,
the Spirit touches deep
to tell the soul of loveliest grace and mercy given onto thee.

There is no sorrow now among this distant sea
where white wings send the breath prayers back to God.
This altar of Divine bliss sweetens any darker thought
into a song;
In praise the temple of this space resounds.

O Holy Soul that might be given such depth
of majesty to behold;
Stand in the shadow for too much is Light:
The Radiance streameth on,
and you are kept upon the earth
to wonder at its brilliant sight.

Merciful Love

Merciful Love

Anna Lin,
One of Grace and Beauty,
dweller in Merciful Love ~ ~ ~

This Rose I give to you
as essence of the love you’re meant to be,
Gift of the sorrow that has ruled your pain.
Now meant to open as the flower of Love,
Fragrance of myrrh that wise ones
through you bring . . .
mingled with grief of all that you have been.

Know this,
that now the petals bloom,
show forth this Beauty . . . Love and Grace unfold.
Take now the story of your toil,
raise it to life,
so others too may heal.

Wonderful mercy of a gentle flower,
abundant blessing given
amidst the thorns.
Nourish compassion in the way of peace,
Fervently follow the way of Christ, your Lord.

There is such Love,
poured out upon you now . . .
Anointing the remembrance
of broken hearted dreams.

No longer shall the fears infest your soul
for you are raised to triumph as a King’s
most cherished being.

Tinged with age, but still calls me forth to new life ~ ~ ~

Easter Joy and Gladness

This day of Joy and Gladness
now comes to raise me up

To live a life of praises
for new life that is given.

For Jesus, You have triumphed
and shown us all the way

To overcome the challenges
that keep us laid away.

So hidden in the tombs
that bind us ever still

Lying in dead silence
no voice to do Your will.

Come, take my hand
and raise me up
into the glorious heights

That I may serve in faithfulness
my days as shining Light.

It Cannot Be Denied

TH  119f099b349a454e46e92aa6f87f9896

It Cannot Be Denied

Only Jesus ~ Christ alone
I have learned to love and honor God
through him – the Savior of my Soul

My love is deep
do not deny it
by trying to pretend otherwise

for it cannot be denied

  • it is the ground of my being
  • it is the truth of my essence
  • it is the healing of my soul

this love that dwells within

and cannot be denied

Let this love reign
Let this love heal
to soothe my bitter woes.

I sit within my silent realm
to know this love of Christ

No greater love than this can be –

it cannot be denied.

On The Footpath Of My Soul

HSS  fa2a496bdd0783a2b62e7db225806f38

On the footpath of my soul
I journey deeper into Light;
Drumbeats of the heart
call me to listen to my prayer.

Profound meaning in
the words of simple truths;
Telling of all honor, grace,
and blessing of the hour.

No longer singing to the
deceptions of the world –
in ONE- derful communion
all is well.

~ Anna Lin
