Encouragement for those who dare to dream with God . . .

Dream In Your Heart

Love You Dearly

Where have you been walking? With the broken? with the poor?/Jesus, break this heart of mine with what's been breaking Yours/Every single tear I shed will wash the wounds where you once bled/Just sit with me awhile and let me love on You.

Love On You

Your Approval
I tried to get my ducks in rows
Lord knows, I tried to keep the rules
Still did the things I hated most
And then I felt like such a fool
My righteousness was filthy rags
You saw me as a precious jewel
And now I’m never looking back
Life is a green light
When I live from Your approval

I live from Your approval
I live from Your approval
That pat on the back, that look in Your eyes
When all that I lack is covered in Christ
I live from Your approval 
I live from Your approval

Why play to the crowd
Why live to please man
When You’re pleased with me
Because of the Lamb
I live from Your approval
I live from Your approval


Your Approval

Mirror Mirror reflected in the Jordan
A dove descends to say Daddy is pleased
No Identity could be half as important
As to know You say the same thing about me.

Mirror, Mirror

Ladder      -2005 Christina Kaspersen
verse 1
My desire is to be covered
Like a baby bird beneath your jealous wings
Eye of the storm is in the shelter of Your shadow
You are the whirlwind, yet You cradle me with perfect peace
 
My desire is to be carried
Like a fledgling on Your feathers strong and swift
My wings are torn, but I’ve discovered healing in Yours
Looking to You I run, and take off from the barren cliffs

chorus
Your blood has made this pleasure possible
Thrusting me heavenward on currents of Your grace
Your cross, crude and unconditional
Is the ladder that I climb into the nest of Your embrace
 
Your wounds have made wholeness inevitable
Your healing sets me free to soar from faith to faith
Your cross, crude and unconditional
Is the ladder that I climb into the nest of Your embrace
 
verse 2
My desire is ever upward
But I’m learning that the shortcut there is down
So I collapse and lay my head upon a stony pillow
Wake at the bottom of a ladder stretching through the clouds
 
My desire is for Your presence
I’m patient till at last You don’t appear
Then I look up to find a door wide open to the heavens
What’s more, to my surprise, You’re calling me to come up here
 
(chorus)
bridge
Your blood has made this pleasure possible
Your love is nothing less than wonderful
Your grace is nothing less than bountiful
Your face is nothing less than beautiful
