1. I have a vase that cradled roses,
Beautiful and pure.
And now the vase reminds me
Of the things I’m living for.
Refrain:
2. My sweetheart gave this vase to me
With roses and his love.
And little did he know,
It touched my spirit from above.
Refrain:
3. And in your life I pray there’s someone
Blessing you with grace,
And sending you his flowers
So that you can be the vase, singing
Refrain:
Oh let me be a vessel
Of unconditional love.
Refrain:
Let me be a vessel
To carry love and light.
Let me hold the beauty
And fragrance of a life.
Let me stand with gladness,,
In hope and faith and trust.
Let me be a vessel
Of unconditional love.
For every hair upon your head,
As short as it may be,
I ask the Lord to bless you,
‘Cause you mean the world to me.
I love the smile on your face
and pray He lets it shine.
It shows the sweetness of your soul
And brings a smile to mine.
Your voice inspires hopefulness,
Reminding me of love.
The Lord give peace to you
And whisper wisdom from above.
The rhythm of your heartbeat
Is a miracle each day.
You keep the Spirit in this world
With every breath you take.
You take a path that’s all your own,
And no one can deny
You step in faith and walk with love,
For God is by your side.
For all the seeds of happiness
You’ve planted here on earth,
I pray they grow and bloom for you,
Because of all your worth;
And I ask the Lord to bless you
On this great day of your birth.

1. I’ve felt resentment, jealousy,
And more that drained the life from me.
But when I gave them up in prayer,
I found that healing waited there.
Refrain:
2. I’ve been depressed and worried sick,
So hurt I couldn’t eat a bit.
But Jesus set me free in truth,
And this is what I share with you.
Refrain:
3. Oh let us learn and let us be
Good soldiers in His company
To fight the battles, big and small,
And those within us most of all.
Refrain:
Let go, let God, let them heal (repeat).
Refrain:
‘Cause wounds don’t have to fester,
Let them heal.
Turn to the light of Christ,
And make a change that lasts for real.
‘Cause wounds don’t have to fester.
[3. Ya gotta] Let go, let God, let them heal.

Refrain:
When teardrops fall,
May they open our eyes
To see that peace and understanding flourish in our lives.

And make our hearts a garden where the Spirit blooms and dwells.
1. We can sow seeds of goodness
Or plant a world of hate.
And even in despair and asking why,
We still can pray.
Refrain:
2. We have so many feelings
Of anger, hurt and grief.
But we can ask the Lord to show
Which feelings are the weeds.

Of heart and soul and mind.
And what we plant today
Will be the fruit at harvest time.

Lord, make our hearts a garden where Your Spirit blooms and dwells
When teardrops fall.
May the Earth of the North ground you
And keep your body strong.
May the Water of the West flow through you
And ease your feelings and emotions.
May the Fire of the South transform you
And clear your mind of negativity.
May the Air of the East speak through you
And breathe life everywhere you go.
May God’s elements of Nature bless your world
As He holds you in His loving hands forever.
Amen.

1. The ocean is a wondrous thing.
It flows in Summer, Fall, and Spring.
In Winter there is ice to see,
But heat and salt work faithfully
To keep deep waters flowing free.
God doesn’t let His ocean freeze.
Refrain:
2. The earth is an amazing place,
Supporting life through time and space.
The seasons come and creatures flee
To find the home and food they need.
Some hybernate or dig for heat,
‘Cause God doesn’t let His creatures freeze.
Refrain:
3. The Spirit is a raging fire
He fuels so we may feel desire.
We walk through darkness, cold and deep,
But Christ our Savior never sleeps.
And if we tend His Light, we’ll see,
God doesn’t let our Spirit freeze.
Refrain:
Father unchanging, You abide.
Refrain:
Father unchanging, changing life.
Turning and churning, dark and light.
Giving and taking, You provide.
Holding and molding, , be my guide.
Father unchanging, You abide.

Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
–Matthew 17:19-20 (KJV)
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
–Matthew 7:7-8 (KJV)
“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.”
–Helen Keller
1. I don’t have to touch you
To know that you are near.
The strength within your Spirit
Takes away my fear.
I don’t have to look for you
Or ask where you might be,
‘Cause I feel it in your blessings
Always reaching out to me.
Refrain:
2. I don’t have to see you
To know that we are one.
The light within your Spirit
Fills my heart with sun.
And I don’t have to look at you
To recognize your face,
‘Cause I feel it in the kindness
Of your mercy, love, and grace.
Refrain:
3. And I don’t have to speak
To know you hear my prayer.
The peace within your Spirit
Shows your tender care.
And I don’t have to look to you,
Because you live in me.
And I feel it in your presence
Of the truth that sets me free.
Refrain:
That’s the miracle of you.
That’s the miracle, miracle of you.
Refrain:
And the faith I place in you
Is the miracle you prove.
‘Cause when I ask for more,
You open every door.
And the glass is never empty,
Shattered, broken on the floor.
There’s another little bit,
And I take hold of it.
That’s the miracle of you.

You are my forever and my eternity.

But now I know the truth.
Even when I’m by myself,
I have a friend in you.

2. I held this heavy world
Upon my shoulders small.
But now you bear the load
And walk beside me through it all.

To give support and strength.

O you are my forever and my eternity.
Refrain:
[‘Cause] you are my forever and my eternity.
You lift me from despair and make me all that I can be.
