Frank McEleny Poems

O God you are my God
In the morning I will rise to thee
You're the one that came to earth
You're the one who came and died for me
...

Hear my cry O God
Hold me in thy arms
Hear my cry O God
Protect me from all harm
...

You raised up the mountains
And filled the mighty seas
The valley's clothed with splendor
Men fall down upon their knees
...

All the people of the earth cry out
Sing out His glorious name
Give Him honor and praise and glory
To know Him is to never be the same
...

Smile from heaven O Father above
Fill every part of me with your resplendent love
Let all the people praise you my King
Give entrance to glory that they may sing
...

Let God arise and His enemies be scattered
Who dares to stand in this day?
My troubles melt like wax in the presence of the Lord
Like smoke in the wind, they are blown away
...

My heart is troubled beyond compare
I wander lost in deep despair
For the things of life I barely care
And I cry out to you
...

Let our God be magnified
For He makes my woes take flight
He rides upon the winds of joy
His glory lights up the night
...

In you O lord I put my trust
When you put me to the test
You took me from my mother's womb
You are my Rock and strong fortress
...

As long as the sun and moon endure
You'll bring justice and peace to the poor
Oppression and violence shall be no more
When you step down O Lord
...
