STILL WATERS by Steph Macleod
Click Here for Video
Storm is rising
I′ve been riding on the waves
Feel like I'm dying
I′ve been dying for days
Great walls are falling
My soul is calling out
Release me
Deep down in the darkness
My chains are invisible
Laid bare for the harvest
I long for a miracle
Come save my soul again
So come save my soul again
Here in the darkness
Trying so hard to pray
Lord if You hear me
Come help me change my ways
I'm trying to fight it
But the coldness of the night
It seems to keep me
Deep down in the darkness
My chains are invisible
Laid bare for the harvest
I long for a miracle
So come save my soul again
Come save my soul again
Come save my soul again
Save my soul again
Singing now
Ah Amen
Come save my soul again
Save my soul again
Ah Singing Ah Amen
Save my soul again
Save my soul again
Ah Amen
Come save my soul again
Save my soul again
Ah Amen
And now before
Still waters
I am in a deafening silence
I am humbled
Suddenly
I know You are here with me
Now before
Still waters
I am in a deafening silence
I am humbled
So suddenly
Cause I know You are here with me
Irish Blessing/Be Thou My Vision

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art;
Thou my best thought, in the day and the night;
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my wisdom, be Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father and I, Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be thou my battleshield, my sword for the fight;
Be thou my dignity, thou my delight;
Thou my soul’s shelter and thou my high tower;
Raise thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise;
Thou mine inheritance, through all my days
Thou and Thou only, the first in my heart;
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art.
High King of heaven, my victory won;
May I reach heaven’s joy, O bright heaven’s sun;
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall;
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall;
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.
Christ be with you, Christ within you
Christ behind you, Christ before you,
Christ beside you, Christ to win you,
Christ to comfort and restore you,
Christ beneath you, Christ above you,
Christ In quiet, Christ in danger,
Christ in hearts of all that love you,
Christ in mouth of friend and stranger

"Gabriel's Obeo" - Hauser
At that time, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon.
And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called out, "Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is tormented by a demon." But Jesus did not say a word in answer to her. Jesus' disciples came and asked him, "Send her away, for she keeps calling out after us." He said in reply, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel." But the woman came and did Jesus homage, saying, "Lord, help me." He said in reply,
"It is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs." She said, "Please, Lord, for even the dogs eat the scraps
that fall from the table of their masters." Then Jesus said to her in reply, "O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish." And the woman's daughter was healed from that hour.
