Poems by Raelene J. Elliss

All my sins and failures
You love me just the same
Though my heart
Tends to feel the blame

The reason for the resurrection
Is to forgive my sinful soul
It's written in the scriptures
It's in the ancient scrolls

Your love for me is eternal
More than I can understand
Lord you always lead me
Towards your outstretched hand

You said you are the truth and light
The answer to my prayers
Lord Jesus you are all I need
Nothing else compares

Lift me up and raise me to you
I'm a sinner this I know
Your word is the light
In your love my faith will grow

Always my Lord
As it's meant to be
You lift me up
I'm more than I can be

Prayers from the heart
I seek your strength and face
My heart seeks
Your amazing grace

Prayers of adoration
From a humble heart
The veil is torn down
Nothing can tear apart

The bond of love you gave
Is a precious gift to me
Heavenly Father thank you
I'm made more I can be

My heart beats for you Lord
My life's a gift from you
Reveal your plans for me
And the things you'd have me do

Inspired by scripture
James 13 :8

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

Be set free
By my love and grace
Seek me child of mine
In my embrace
For a place for you
Awaits in my heart
Child of mine
I've torn the veil apart
Nothing can separate
You from me
Be in quiet prayer
My face you'll see
No pain of heart
Complete peace
In my rampart

My dear the angels are here
They want to take you home
To Jesus loving arms
You'll never be alone

They make the best cup of tea
Not to strong or hot
They'll play Irish music
They'll love you such a lot

Jesus will be gracious to you
He'll help you find your peace
There's no need to fear
You'll find your sweet release

You're done all you had to do
Loved and cared and knew
Crocheting lovely squares for rugs
It's in your heart to do

My dearest darling girl
It's time for you to go
Be in Jesus loving arms
He'll be all a glow

To have you in his loving arms
In his calm embrace
Look up dear darling girl
Into his precious face

Remember our precious loved ones
Always in our prayers
They've been taken home with him
Where nothing else compares

Raise your hands
In your quiet place
Close your eyes
You'll see his precious face

Talk to Jesus
He wants to talk to you
In your quiet place
All hope anew

In His name always
Lift your arms to him
Praise in His  name
Praise him in a hymn

He will always keep you
Nd bless you everyday
He will turn his face towards you
He'll be gracious to in every way

He'll give you peace
And bless you so amen
One day you'll be with him
Then you'll know when

To talk to Jesus
In his presence, in his grace
Loving to see
Jesus precious face

They came to that place
Together they shared
In the days that followed
They loved and they cared

A mighty wind blew
Tongues of flames leapt
In each one's human heart
The Holy Spirit kept

A place to share a great love
Of the lord their God
Each and every way
Jesus has surely trod

They spoke in tongues
And each one rejoiced
In His mighty name
Hallelujah in His voice

Of theLord their God
Hearts spirit spilled
That moved in that place
God's promises fulfilled

The last super
The veil is torn
Death was arrested
And my life was born

Freed from my sin
When he raised the cup
Remember him always
When you share in the sup

Appeared was he
To those whom he loved
Tell all the nations
The lamb is beloved

Prophecy fulfilled
Now it is done
Jesus assended
He is the one

The great I am
The lion and lamb
Blessed all decebdants
Of Abraham

Never the ending
Of what's to be told
Grow in your faith
The great atone has rolled

Raise me up in your joy
When my heart fears
Take my hand father
Wipe away my tears

You are with me always
In the night my heart be still
My prayer lord Jesus
The Holy spirit fill

I'm your stumbling child
My faith needs your hand
Leading me towards thee
Across the soft  cool sand

Your breath is the sea breeze
Gently blowing to cool my face
Your light sparkling across the ocean
I long to take my place

Lift me up lord Jesus
Walk this road with me
Heavenly Father I'm your child
I long to be with thee

I'll walk with you
In the darkest times
Your never forsaken
My love for you climbs

Over the mountains
In the deepest seas
You can't be separated
My promise decrees

By deed or by sin
Child I'm your creator
Stay on my pathway
Heavens rewards are far greater

Above earthly riches
Nothing compares
I'll walk with you always
Through all your despairs

My yoke is easy
My burden is light
I'll walk with you every step
In faith and might
