Daily Battle

I walk through the daily struggles,

seeking the truth that will set me free.

I see pain all around me,

struggling for the freedom that only my Father can give.

Light streams through the shadows,

piercing the darkness that brings fear and deception.

The light frees our bonds that hold us in sin.

Evil is released from our minds,

replaced by the love that only a father can give.

Bearers of Light

I am walking in the land of shadow.

I bear the light,

which is never seen by the unrighteous.

This light of my father,

takes the unclean the become the clean.

In sight of this light,

some come to embrace,

others flee in fear,

others seek to distroy the light.

As more come to embrace the light,

many become bearers of the light.

These are takenfrom the paths of unrighteousness,

to the paths of righteousness,

being reborn in my father's house.

Those who bear the light will never fade and die,

as the men of darkness fade and die.

I will live on in my father's house.

New Beginnings

As I rise from slumber,

the world is filled with fuzz.

My mind is filled with a lack of clarity.

My body is weary,

yearning for the comfort of my bed.

Even with my drowsy state,

I will praise my God.

Just as each day I am renewed,

daily my spirit will rise up to worship.

With each breath,

I will praise my God.

My life is changed,

born anew with my savior indwelled.

Even in the remenants of my dream,

Christ overwhelms me.

A new day allows a new chance to worship,

a new chance to fellowship with my father.

Brokeness

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)
...

I am Broken,

shattered and fallen.

I am humbled,

fallen to my knees.

My heart is impure,

sinful and evil.

My life is forced from your grasps,

by my prideful will.

My feet bring me to the wilderness far from you,

yet you seek me out.

My sins are more than the hairs on my head,

yet you have forgiven them all.

I am deserving of death,

yet you give me life everlasting.

I am broken before your holiness.

May I be made holy as you are holy.

Through my brokeness,

I am only complete through your perfect work.

Humbled Life

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

Dedicated to Val Wood

...

As I come Before you,

my life is laid bare,

humbled to my knees.

My heart is weak,

broken before your presence.

I have no strength,

but you have made me strong.

Many around me stand with a false strength,

when they need to lay broken and bare,

before our maker and creator.

My pride is shattered,

broken and crushed before you.

My hope lies in ruins,

only you can repair.

Holiness of My God

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

As I come into you holiness,

peace overwhelms me.

Your hope overflows,

filling the deepest crevices of my heart.

All of my shame and guilt is washed away,

filling my life with your holiness.

I am brought before your grace and glory.

My joys and passions are unified with your own.

No man or demon can take away the righteousness you have bestowed upon me.

My hope and my joys lie within that which connot be distroyed by the hands of man,

nor the deceit of the demons,

but can be restored by the Lord my God.

Goodness and Righteousness follow me all the days of my life.

In the Shadows

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

As I sit in the darkness,
the shadows creep up against my body.
Fear envelops my body.
The unknown lurks all around me,
pulling at my soul.
I run like the blind seeking vision,
in all that can not give.
My heart avoids my only cure.
Finally, when all hope is lost,
my heart is renewed in christ's holy name.
Peace envelops my body.
Grace overcomes my fear.
The darkness is warded off in the light.

Holy Fellowship

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)
...

Friends are all around me,
peace is upon my soul.
Your love is expressed through me.
My friendship amplifies the contentment given to me by your awesome love.
The fellowship you have given me contains immeasurable strength.
Our bond is unbreakable by all things of this earth,
nor of all things beyond.

Grace of God

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

As I glance to the heavens,
I see the perfection of your will.
I look upon the face of grace.
As the prince of peace,
guides me through my failures and triumphs.
He lifts me from my knees,
with his hands of grace.
Washing me in his crimson flow,
spilled from the final lamb.
Filling my heart,
with the holiness of the spirit,
of the pure and the utmost faithful God.
exposing the depths of death,
pushing away my sin,
filling the crevices of my heart,
with the love of Christ.
Like a cup overfilling,
the essence of Christ's love,
flowing from my pores.

Final Struggles

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

I am weary,
my body is tired in this world.
My spirit is weak.
I long to be comforted,
but my body is stubborn.
Your grace is willing,
but my heart struggles in it's own weakness.
Your love is all around me,
but I can not see.
In the end all I have is gone,
all that remains is your great presence.
All i have left is to fall back upon your magnificent compassion.

Eternal Nature

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

As I glance across the vast open sea,
I see the lord's amazing touch.
I look up the mamoth mountians,
seeing his mighty power.
My eyes look upon the vigrant forest green,
dead compared to the lord's breath of life.
I look across the endless plains,
like the eternal life provided by my savior's death.
I see man's intriciate urban jungle,
complex like God's perfect plan.

Creator of the Heavens

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

You grace is amazing,
your lovliness reaches beyond the sky.
I love you oh lord,
creator of the heavens,
mighty yaweah.
I am your humble servant, ready to do your will,
even till death will I follow your will.
I battle your enemy with all my strength,
even though that is not enough.
In the midst of the fight your strength will lead us to victory.

From Darkness to Light

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

I stumble in the darkness,

with the eyes that can not see.

My sight is limited o all that I can touch.

Each and every sound brings forth fear in my heart.

As I fall to my knees in despair,

the pains of darkness,

strike out at my very soul.

The cold strikes at my side,

sinking deep even to the very bone.

When the light appears,

all darkness is driven away from me.

First the light brings forth pain,

with my eyes so accustom to the dark.

But soon as the pain subsides,

much beauty enters my senses.

The fear is replaced by joy and peace.

Color enters my life,

replacing the different shades of black.

Light enters my life,

which brings forth a life I have never seen before.

As the shadows fade,

my life is renewed,

almost reborn.

My Master Creator

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

I saw you even in the beginning,

before your mother knew of you in her womb.

I formed you,

detailed in every way.

I protected you,

as you entered the dangerous world,

fleeing from the safety of the womb.

I protected you in my arms,

as the horrors of the world scared you.

I rejoice beside you,

as you encounter the joys I have placed in your path.

I held you up,

as the enemy struck at you with temptation.

I protected you,

even when you chose the path of foolishness.

I broke my body for you,

taking all your sins upon my sinless body,

so that you may respond to my saving hand.

Now I ask,

how will you respond?

The Spiritual Battlefield

By Ephraim Yeung (Eee)

...

I am weary from battle.

My wounds of war are deep.

I have seen many of my brethren have fallen by my side.

My shield of faith is dented,

bent and scratched,

but it still stands strong.

My breastplate of righteousness hangs by a thread.

The flaming arrows of the enemy are all around me,

wounding those without a shield of faith.

My Sword of Truth is dented and chipped,

but the word of God still stands.

Our enemy feats my strength,

given to me by the infinite strength of God.

As I battle in the army of the Lord my God,

I battle for more than life itself,

I battle for the souls of my neighbor.

Only through the brokenness of their spirit,

can their soul be saved.
