This Is My Creation
By Julia A. Keirns
Every sound I hear, every word I say
I know it all was planned that way.
Everything I touch, all the things I see
That’s the way it was meant for me.
Everything I am, all the things I do
That’s the way it was planned by You.
I am happy with my life
Because I know You are there.
I know how much You love me
And I know how much You care.
When things go wrong and nothing seems right
I remember Your promise, I see the light.
I look to the sky way up past the stars
I know You can hear me wherever You are.
Please make my life what You want it to be
All I want is for You to be proud of me.
To say, “This is My creation, this is part of My soul.”
Once my life was empty
Till You came and made it whole.
I know that I could never live
Not knowing of Your love.
Or without the hope and peacefulness
You send from above.
For my life is built around You
And the things You have created.
Everything I love so dearly now
Seems to be what I once hated.
You’ve shown me a new side of life
You’ve helped me find a better way.
I no longer live for tomorrow
Or reach back to yesterday.
I see so many people
Throwing their lives away.
But I enjoy each moment
And I live for each new day.
Now that I have found You
I can never let You go.
I will spread Your love around the world
So that others too may know
How wonderful it is to have
Your spirit in their heart.
To know that they may come to You
And never have to part.
I know that I can count on You
To listen and to care.
For I know that You have promised me
When I need You
You will be there.
