Your Glory, by Buhle Khoza, Oasis Christian Academy


Your glory starts someone's story
When their heart is hollow, You will say follow.
They take one step, then two - only to spend time with You
You take them in Your arms and say "Shall we dance?" You dance around the room, knowing You are the only Groom.
When the evening is done and the last song is sung, You whisk them off the floor to chaperone them to the door.
When You are there in complete silence, You look them in the eye and say "Has my glory finished your story?"

Restoration, by Luanna Hutton, Oasis Christian Academy


Broken dreams and broken promises
My heart still bears the pain
My withered eyes and tattered heart still bare the past
I cry not knowing what to do with the pain I once bore.
My mind once echoed lonely through the night.

Whispering thieves with tormenting arrows pierced through my clouded mind
Left alone in my darkest hour, my Saviour came to rest
He bore my pain and cried my tears

My heart restored, my dreams made whole
The heart I gave - the heart He mended
The battle He fought, the victory He gained to restore my broken heart

He made me whole - He made me strong
But now I give Him my scared heart and rest at His feet
For I am His daughter - the precious one He saved.

Wind Through The Trees

This is what the sound of wind through tree looks like. The image was generated using Windows Media Player (a retro version!). I took a screen shot of the visualisation as the video sound clip played. I generated the audio via Audacity. Who would have thought sound looked so good!
