Blessed by God by Milly Stegall

Who can climb a mountain,
without legs and feet?
Who can chew up food good,
without all their teeth?
Who can hold a platter,
without an arm and hand?
Who can see a river?
Without eyes, you can't!
Who can hear the birds sing?
Without ears they're naught.
Who can smell the coffee?
No nose, ruins that thought!
This is so depressing!
It's sad to think of such!
But, I'm glad to God because
He's blessed me so much!
He's given me legs and feet
to walk about at will.
He's given me a mouth to talk
and for my belly to fill.
He's given me hands and arms
to hold the ones I love.
He's given me eyes to see
the beauty from above.

Calm the Waves by Milly Stegall

Here today, gone tomorrow
Our lives are filled
With grief and sorrow.

All we need is You to live.
Blessings abound
Because You give.

You make this life Of storms
A breeze, and
Calm the waves upon our seas.

My Special Place by Milly Stegall

With humbleness of heart,
I submit myself to You.
I lay everything aside,
As I seek Your face.

Looking to Your Word,
To make my spirit new.
You lighten my darkness,
With Your amazing grace.

Hope and encouragement,
Your words are True.
They draw me to you, Jesus,
To my special place.

Whole by Milly Stegall

Thank you, Lord, for
loving me anyway.
Thank you, Lord, you
wipe all my tears away.
You're the only one
who sees my heart.
And the one
who heals my soul.
You, alone have the
power to save.
My Savior,
you make me whole.

True Lord by Milly Stegall

I'm lonely, but I'm not alone.
Sometimes I think, I might need someone.
I need You more, of course, I do.
And sometimes, I let things
get between me and You.
Help me not to do that, Lord.
I'm weak, and need You so much more
than anything that's ever been.
You are my true and closest friend.

Coming back by Milly Stegall

I know you're coming back, oh, Lord
you're coming back for me.
I know you're coming back, oh, Lord
to set this captive free.
And I'll be ready to go
when I hear the trumpet blow.
With you is where I'll be.
I know you're coming back, oh, Lord
you're coming back for me.

Inside Out by Milly Stegall

Lots of pretty birds came
into my yard today.
Lately I've been inside,
and not outside to play.
It's dark and cold
inside my house.
It's not a pretty scene.
But being outside made me get
a new outlook on things.
Maybe God, who cares for me,
was making clear to me,
that sometimes things look better
when it's with His eyes we see.

Wanting to Give by Milly Stegall

I want to know you, Lord.
I want to show the world, what you mean to me.

I want to love you, Lord.
I want to be all that you want me to be.

I want to praise you, Lord.
I want to worship you on bended knee.

I want to please you, Lord.
I give all that I am to thee.

November 4, 2010

I posted some youtube links containing my poetry. One of the videos is Tomorrow, read by Davo Roberts. The other is Armour of the Family also read by Davo Roberts. Also I posted some paintings by the artist Edwin Carl Caulley. Both of these men are very good friends of mine. I hope you enjoy their work.
