My God

My God is one in whom I trust 
He's the only God for all of us 
When we need help, He's always there 
He knows our need and every care 
I love my God and He loves me 
It is by His light that I may see 
So when trials and troubles come my way 
I know my God will save the day.

Blessings

When I receive blessings from above, 
It reminds me how great is my Father's love. 

He gives me strength when I am weak. 
I place all my cares at my Father's feet. 

He gave me friends who I love so dear. 
They bring me happiness and lots of cheer. 

He gave me treasures along life's way. 
It touches me more than words can say. 

He sends me His love from up above 
And gave me a church family who I dearly love. 

Just try Him out and you will see. 
There is no greater love than Thee.
