A Song - Oh Lord, Visit My Life
Singing and composing hymns and other songs have been part of my life since my teenage days
Pamilerin Ogundare, Ado-ekiti, Nigeria
Composer's Foreword
In hopeless situations, it is the visit of God followed by his miraculous events that we aapire for.
When such happens we will be able to do the impossible because we have God by our side, supporting, encouraging and motivating us.
Therefore, when people behold us with "eyes of yesterday", and expect us to fall and fail, we won't be moved by all they are saying because we know we cannot fail not anymore. This is not because of our position nor anything but because we are sure that we have God by us and in us, who is our motivator and supporter.
In fact in our daily living what we expect is God's visit integrated with his miracles and when these happen, the enemies cover their faces in shame because what they thought would ridicule us never did happen, what they thought we shan't be ableto achieve God has done it for us and through us.
I have put these words together asking for God's visitations and blessings daily.
The link for the tune used has been shared here too.
Thank you.
Composed Song
Leader
Dry bones of the valleys
In your (great) power you visit 'em
Your breath has entered them
Tendons and flesh you give 'em
You covered them yea with skin
And dried bones come back alive
It's a miraculous event
Which no one ever dreamt of Lord
Chorus
Leader
The people of God who had lost hopes
Thou Lord had mercies on them
Given unto them unique favour
B'fore low and mighty ones
Their freedom they regained
You blessed and established them
Yea this is the Lord's doing
Which is marvelous before everyone
Chorus
Leader
Visit Lord my hopelessness
Yahweh Creator of universe
Rescue me from the valley of death
Restore me to health my Lord
Heal my wounds oh Lord I pray
Deliver me from all enemies
Lead and lift me to a higher rock
That enemies can never get to Lord
Chorus
Leader
Wipe away my tears oh Lord
Cause me again to smile my Lord
Take away my reproaches
Take off my body filthy garments Lord
Put my enemies to shame
Cause me to do the 'mpossible
Cause your glory to shine on me
Let all know that I have you as A Father
Chorus
Leader
Bless my going out Lord
Bless my coming in my Lord
My sitting and uprising
Oh my God turn all to blessings
The fruits of my body
My animals indeed my farms
Yea everything that belongs to me
Let them all be blessed of you Lord

Thanks a million Pamela. Trying my best to plea with God for a Divine visitation in all spheres of my life that will baffle the world. He did this for Isaac, Jabez (1 Chro. 4:9-11) I also desire he does something greater in my life and I believe this is the cry of many brethren in the world, therefore, I put this down to be sang by many a one who love singing...I appreciate your comment.
