The Peace of God

The Peace of God 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

No matter what happens 
In the world 
You will still have peace when
In the Lord 

The Peace of God 
Comes from the Lord and not the world 
So it cannot 
Be taken away by the world 

The Peace of God
Is not a void of sorrows
Or the absence
Of pain in your tomorrows 

The Peace of God
Is not an absence of loss
This Peace stems from 
The Work of Christ at the cross

The Peace of God
Is a true peace from God
For it is the 
Very presence of God

Don't Walk With Doubters

Don't Walk With Doubters
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Don't walk
With doubters 
Or doubts 
Will enter 

Don't walk 
With doubters
But with 
Believers 

You will not 
Receive 
If you don't 
Believe

So walk
By faith 
And not 
With doubts

Let The Lord Lead

Let The Lord Lead
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Let the Lord 
Lead your steps 
You surely
Won't regret 

When He says move
Then you move 
When He says stop 
Then you stop 

When He says
To wait 
Then be still 
And wait 

He knows best 
What to do 
So trust in Him 
And life will bloom

Even In The Wilderness

Even In The Wilderness
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Even in the wilderness
The Lord God did not leave them 
He led them through the wilderness
With a pillar of cloud and fire 

Thus even in your wilderness
The Lord God will be with you 
By day and by night the Lord God
Will certainly direct you 

Even in the wilderness
The Lord God fed them 
Every morning bread would 
Rain down from heaven

Thus even in your wilderness 
The Lord God will feed you 
Every morning His mercies
And Word are there for you 

New Season

Have a Blessed New Year!

New Season
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

The time is coming
When all things fade away
And the new is entering
Which will come to stay

The new season is dawning
As the old be fading
Make room for the season
And capture the reason

Will it be good?
There is no doubt that it should
As it most certainly would
For the Lord God is Good

There is no need to worry
Just let go and be merry
Cast your burdens to Him carry
To be light and not weary

For the roof of the old season
Shall be the floor of the new story
As you step into His new reason
And grow from glory to glory

The set wage
And sweep away

The hearts of men
To abide in
His loving Hands

The Lord, My God Is

The Lord, My God Is 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

The Lord, my God 
Is loving and faithful 
And there is no 
Other as pure and true

Is sovereign and wise

My full trust and life 

The Lord, my God 
Is gracious and merciful 
To Him I shall 
Be eternally grateful 

The Lord Is My Life

The Lord Is My Life 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Lord Christ is the Way,
The Truth and the Life
So in Him I 
Fully abide 

I lay down my life 
And surrender completely
So that my life's 
Taken over completely 

By the Lord
Jesus Christ
So that He 
Is now my life 

Not a part 
Of my life
But that He 
Is my life!

Not for Him to be placed 
As the first of all things
But for Him to be made 
As the one and only!

Now You Have God

Now You Have God

You had not God 
By your side 
And was so lost

Where, When, How, What 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Where and when 
How and what 
Ask the Lord

Not own plans 
But take God's 

Where and when 
How and what 
God will send 
His great Sword

Where and when 
How and what 
Through His Hand 
And His Blood 

Where and when 
How and what 
In His time 
And His love 

Where and when 
How and what 
God knows best 
In Him trust

So do not live 
In doubt or fright 

The Difference

The Difference
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

The rain falls 
On the just and unjust 
The storms come 
And are certainly harsh

And the darkness great 
But we stand strong 
Trusting in God's Grace

Because

Because
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

There is peace 
In the storms
Because we're 
With the Lord

There is light 
In the darkness

Is there with us

In agony

Grace and Mercy 

There is hope 
In dire times 
Because in 
Christ we abide

From The Lord

From The Lord 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

Security
Does not come from 
Fame or money 
But from the Lord 

Identity
Does not come from 
What the world thinks 
But from the Lord 

True joy and peace 
Does not come from
Comfort and ease 
But from the Lord

Not a thing 
Has meaning 
If it's not 
From the Lord

Become more like Christ
In every way

A Life With Lord Christ

A Life With Lord Christ
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

A life with Lord Christ 
Does not mean a life 
That is all bright 
Without problems 

But a life with Christ 
Does mean that you now
Have the power of Christ 
To overcome all things 

A life with Lord Christ 
Does not mean a life 
That is all light 
Without sorrow

But a life with Christ 
Does mean a life of strength 
In the joy of Christ 
To face your tomorrows

In Weakness

In Weakness
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

It is in weakness
That I found strength 
In my Lord Jesus 
Of greatest strength 

It is in weakness 
That I gained wisdom 
Through my Lord Jesus 
Of highest wisdom 

It is in weakness 
That I received Grace 
From my Lord Jesus 
Full of love and Grace

God's Deep True Love

God's Deep True Love 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

The Lord gave 
Everything He had for you 
He gave His 
Only begotten Son for you 

He spared not His own Son 
Not to save one or some 
He sacrificed His only Son
To save every single one

Jesus Christ, His Son endured the cross 
And remained until the work was done 
He did not leave but stayed on the cross 
Though He easily could have come down

It was not the nails 
That kept Him on the cross 
It was purely by 
His deep true love for us

Only Christ Can Remove 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Nothing can remove 
The stains of sin 
Nothing can remove 
The guilt within 

Nothing can remove them 
But the Blood of Christ 
Nothing can remove them 
But the Work of Christ 

There at the cross 
Christ shed His Blood 
He paid the cost 
With His own Blood 

Nothing can remove
But Jesus Christ 
For He is the Way, 
The Truth and Life

Only When You Let Go

Only When You Let Go 
By Dr Marilyn Bouniu

If you do not let go 
And forgive the past wrongs
Then your heart will grow 
Weary and bitter

Only when you let go 
Will you gain something better  

Only when you let go 
Will you be truly free
So forgive and let go 
In God's love and Mercy

It keeps you calm and still 
And aligns you

Despite turmoil 
Your soul is at ease

Can't see what is going on

Open all the 
Right doors for you

On God and Truth

Transforms you 
But lifts you

For the Lord is 
The most powerful
