From the Begining to the end of time He's there
faithfully guiding us and showing He does care
with every setting of the sun and every rising of the moon
I pray that He would return soon

YHWH lead me and I will follow
Guide my paths for tomorrow
Make your voice audible and clear
May it be only your voice I hear

Time and again I fall short of your glory
but I rise up so I continue this untold story
my life a sacrifice an offering to you alone
the Son of God seated to the right of God's throne

YHWH lead me and I will follow
guide my paths for tomorrow
make your voice audible and clear
may it be only your voice I hear

I look to the left and to the right
but only when I look forward do I see the light
I hear the shepards voice drawing me near
telling me to run the race and not to fear

YHWH lead me and I will follow
guide my paths for tomorrow
make your voice audible and clear
may it be only your voice I hear

FYI
YHWH is one of the many Jewish names for God

in the silence of the night I hear angels voices singing your name oh how beautiful is your name as they sing over and over.  (SPOKEN)

Hey!!  you used the NAME.  rock on! YHWH is the translitteration for the Hebrew word that represents the most holy name of God.  it is litterally a verb of being, or "I AM".     my sister is a messianic jew, she's learning hebrew so I get to learn all this cool stuff.  good job jimmy.

But His word was in my heart
like a burning fire
Shut up in my bones;
I was weary of holding back,
And I could not.

i dont realy like the poem because i feel that there is a lot of false things being said in this poem. i was in the belief of YHWH. and from what i know of being in that belief that is not true. YHWH is not another name for a God or gods. and this poem was written from someone who doesnt really know what YHWH means and is about. causeif you dont know there is a belief on this such name then you cant write a poem on something you barely know anything about. but it would be a nice poem if you knew what YHWH was all about and if i didnt know what YHWH meant i would of loved this poem. and Just to let every body know YHWH is not Hebrew.

yhwh is hebrew, and i do actually know what I'm talking about.  something you lacked in your believe was faith in what you believed after talking to you, it appears that you questioned things to much, also the fact remains whether you know a lot about YHWH (God) is totally differnet than having a personal relationship with him.  Cause once you have that your faith will be strong, you can't deny God when you've really experienced him.

Ah, I recall a time when I could have written something similar to this...Those days are gone, however, and I don't intend to get them back. The poem was good - you stuck with your theme well. Arrivederci....

I enjoyed the poem and will state that since it's religious people may differ from your belief.....be open minded and if you have anything to say that might be a bit offensive or something else then do it out of this forum.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I admire it daily

I'm really not going to say too much, as I don't want to offend ANYONE in ANY way.  Good poem, I liked this a lot.  I'm trying to learn a little about Judaism, as I know very close to nothing and religion interests me.  Good job

see thats many peoples problems because if you dont question you will never know and that what makes it easier for people to deseave you with out you even knowing it and it makes you unaware what your actually doing and when people try to show and help you then you become ignorant and very hard to talk to and i know more than what you even know and what you will know about YHWH and it is not hebrew cause you only took it for granted when you told me you seen it in the scriptures because just because it is in the scriptures doesnt make it true ok and you said that you didnt look up and study what YHWH actually means so that just proves how ignorant you are acting when i talked to you about the situation and what i want to know is y are you taking an offense when we were both having a nice coversation but you wanted to get mad and come back here and write this crap about me. how dare you. that just comes to show how people can come talk to you about there own beleives and being willing enough to even try to let you know something that has been proven and that can be proven for your sake.
