count'em

How many times do I fail to recognize the wondrous and infinite blessings God has done to me?  And, I don’t deserve even one. Oh! How much He loves even me.  Rather humbling.

Count your blessings, name them one by one,
Count your blessings, see what God hath done!
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

Lyrics: Johnson Oatman, Jr (1856-1922)

save me

Save Me

Save me from myself, Lord;
Save me from my need
To always run my life, Lord,
To control my every deed.

Save me from my pride, Lord,

My focus on just me;
Help me learn to serve, Lord;

Show me how to be. Save me from the world, Lord,
When tempting things entice;
Remind me of eternity
With You, in paradise. I give my life to you, Lord
My every need you fill;
I’m resting in my faith, Lord;
You saved me, and you always will. By Joanna Fuchs
