Poems by Raelene J. Elliss

Praised  in worship
The Savour King
Hallelujah
We love to sing

Silent night
Cattle lowing
Shepherds see
His glory growing

Swaddling clothes
In a manger laying
A virgin mother
A father praying

Frankincense
Myrrh and gold
Precious gifts
To be hold

Silent night
Hallelujah sing
Ancients foretold
This very thing

Born be he
The lion and the lamb
That silent night
The great I Am

A child lay tenderly
For the Lord to bless and keep
His face to shine upon you
A prayer for when you sleep

May He be gracious to you
And His face to turn towards
A promise upheld in heaven
His child finds rewards

From all burdens be so free
His love shall never cease
Rest child, in His arms
May the Lord give you peace

Amen

To Him be the glory
To the alter, His call
His arms are open wide
It's open to all

Bow down before Him
He is the Lord of all
He is risen
Listen to His call

Hallelujah sing the angles
The resurrection of the Lamb
Fulfilling the greatest promise
He is the great I Am

His arms are wide open
His precious blood spilled
Let all the sinners'
Hearts be glory filled

Greatest treasures for us all
In heaven's high place
Cry and dance, dear ones
And seek His precious face

He lay in a manger
She gazed into his face
A mothers love abounds in her heart
The infant will take his place

To a son she had given birth
In a filthy cattle shed
Swaddling cloth wrapped him
So the wise men said

Worshiped was this little one
The precious lamb was born
He'd be destined to serve mankind
Beyond the veil torn

The stone hearted would despise
The lion and the lamb
They would be in denial
He is the great I Am

From the womb he was nursed
In a borrowed tomb he lay
His farther led his ministry
He wept, he loved , each day

Go beyond the heartfelt grief
Of our saviour on the cross
His beaten bloodied body
The crucifixion is not a loss

The heavenly angles sing hallelujah
Arisen is our sovereign King
In a borrowed tomb
The lamb gave us everything

Don't pray like a hypocrite
Shout out your words so they fit
Into long exhausting prayers
Pases by may stop and stare

Your heavenly Father will hear you say
Honest words from your heart as you pray
Heavenly Father your kingdom come
Here in earth your will be done

You give us our daily bread
In your prayer these words are said
You have forgiven us our debts
We have forgiven those who beset

Lead us away from temptation
And protect us from the evil one
Forgiven are the sins against you
Forgiven those who've sinned against you too
