Hard to believe Mel is turning 75 and doesn’t look (and definitely does not sound!) like he’s over 50!
What a true God-send that was delivered to this community of sufferers. A man who has dedicated more than a decade of his life to giving hope to those when no one else has been there for support.
Mel is the image I see whenever I hear one of my favorite church hymns growing up: Servant Song.
What do you want of me, Lord?
Where do you want me to serve you?
Where can I sing your praises?
I am your song.
[Refrain]
Jesus, Jesus, you are the Lord.
Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.
I hear you call my name, Lord,
and I am moved within me.
Your Spirit stirs my deepest self.
Sing your songs in me.
[Refrain]
Jesus, Jesus, you are my Lord.
Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.
Above, below, and around me,
before, behind, and all through me,
your Spirit burns deep within me.
Fire my life with your love.
[Refrain]
Jesus, Jesus, be the warmth of my heart.
Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.
You are the light in my darkness,
You are my strength when I'm weary.
You give me sight when I'm blinded.
Come, see for me.
[Refrain]
Jesus, Jesus, you are my Light.
Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.
I am your song and servant,
singing your praise like Mary.
Surrendered to your Spirit,
"Let it be done to me."
Refrain
Jesus, Jesus, "Let it be done to me."
Jesus, Jesus, you are the way.
Happiest of birthdays to this great Man of God - who deserves whatever we can afford and be called to give by the Lord.
God Bless you, Mel |
