Eight Blessing

Poemprayer by Laijon Liu

Show us Your kingdom, O God;
guide our poor spirits to home.
Comfort us with Your strength, O God;
turn our mourning into joy.
Teach us to be kind and thrifty, O God;
so we may love and adore Your earth.
Fill us with Your righteousness, O God;
so we are never in hunger and thirst.
Grant Your mercy upon all, O God;
so we may share Your blessing to all.
Purify our heart and mind, O God;
so we would see Your blossomy glow.
Let us make peace among all, O God;
so we may not disgrace Your name.
Bring us to Your kingdom, O God;
we are persecuted for righteousness' sake.
Bless us , bless us, and bless us, O God;
Through our savior Christ Jesus
that You turn all our troubles into joy!

LORD, You are my Lover; in You I build my dreams.

Let Your Heaven rain down Your love on me.
Let Your Blessings kiss my soul with Your Sweetest Mouth.
Let Your Earth produce fruits through the root of Your Love.

I shall be an evergreen, fruiting in all seasons.
I will be a blossom which basks in Your light and shines in all colors.
I am a fish and You are my ocean; in You I swim free and in you I live and play.

You are the blood in my vein, running through every part of my body.
You are the heart of my being, pumping every beat of my life.
You are the spirit of my soul, from the beginning and never ending.

How Does He Love Me?

Poemprayer by Laijon Liu
(Inspired by Elizabeth Barrett Browning's Sonnet 43 - How do I love thee?)

How does He love me? Let me count His ways.
He loves me to the depth and breadth and height
His soul's almighty reach, when His figure out of sight.
For the end of my ways, and my new being.
He loves me to the level of everyday's
Most unknown need, by salt and light.
He loves me freely, over men's rules and curse.
He loves me purely, as they preach and praise.
He loves me with His passion for world to abuse.
His comfort for my griefs, and strength for my unseen faith.
He loves me with a love I dare not to lose.
On His lonely journey, - He loves me with His breath,
Smiles, tears, and His painful agony! - For God already chose
that He shall love me beyond death.

Son of Nun

Poemprayer by Laijon Liu
(Reversa to Emily Dickinson's Son of None)

Lord divided sea - Moses behind-I AM,
Lord invited us - A Land before-I AM,
I AM - Who - I AM
Life is the bread of heaven,
doeth come down, and feedeth;
His Will - be done - as we pray
is a complete - gracious Gift.
Who Is He - Son of Nun,
the Promise - 14th of Hebrew's Abraham,
the King - 14th of Isreal's David,
the Messiah - 14th after Judah's Rebuild;
Himself - the One - waited and rejected;
Himself - the One - eternal and unchangeable.
In One - and only thru Him-
Son of Nun obtained his name - by His glorious Name.
'Tis Sign before us - His Son-
'Tis His Son in us and with us-
A Light shines in the darkness-
And Mary wept and rejoiced-
Her Son visited us-
the slaves of the world - found rest!

Prayer of the Passion of the Christ

Poemprayer by Laijon Liu

O my loving Lord, Christ Yeshua;
My suffering is thy crown,
that deeply hurt thy forehead;
May thy wounded arms,
embrace me;
May thy wounded feet,
accompany my every step;
May thy injured heart,
always concerns me;
On my sinful cross,
shed thy Holy Blood;
and Thy loving Passion,
is my Redeeming Sacrifice.
Let my sins die with thee,
and my soul be restored in thee.
Amen.

Like Father like Son

Poemprayer by Laijon Liu
Edited by
Bibi Baxter

Take me, O Lord,
Take my pride away,
Let it not blind my eyes,
So I can see you
Through a leaf or a stone.

Shield me, O Lord,
Shield me with your word,
So you would protect my soul,
Let my mouth be closed,
And my mind open.

Save me, O Lord,
Save me from the judging one,
Not you, Not them, But me,
So I would never criticize
All that belongs to you.

Love me, O Lord,
Love me as your child,
So everywhere I go,
The world will say:
Like Father like child.

Our Father in heaven,
Who created heaven and earth;
You are our only Father
And we are your dear children;

In Jesus name we pray,
Father and the Son with the Holy Spirit.
Forever Amen!
