About Pete

I love the Lord. Each day, he gives me words of praise and encouragement, and asks me to share them with you I pray that they minister to you as you read them, share them, or ponder on them. Have a blessed day!

I Will Exalt

I will exalt the name of Jesus
Tell of His wondrous love for me
How He left His home in heaven
To come and die for me

I will exalt the name of Jesus
Tell how His grace has set me free
He rose up from the borrowed tomb
So I could live eternally

He’s the Lord of my life
The light of my soul
My rock and fortress strong
He’s the joy of my heart
The peace of my mind
He’s my hope and the coming King

I will worship Him forever
And devote my life to Him
For He has purchased my salvation
And has come to live within

I will worship Him forever
For His grace has pardoned me
His mercy wipes away my sin
And now I am set free

He’s the Lord of my life
The light of my soul
My rock and fortress strong
He’s the joy of my heart
The peace of my mind
He’s my hope and the coming King

I Can’t Wait to get to Heaven

I can’t wait to get to heaven where I’ll see His face
No more pain and no more sorrow in that holy place
I will realize I got there only by His grace
I can’t wait to get to heaven
 
I can’t wait to get to heaven, walk on streets of Gold
I will be with Him forever. I will not grow old
Praising Him with all the angels gathered round His throne
I can’t wait to get to heaven
 
Singing hallelujah to the Kind of Kings
Singing hallelujah to the Lamb
Singing hallelujah to the Lord of Lords
Jesus is the great I AM
 
I cam’t wait to get to heaven, worship at his feet
Sin and death are gone forever, He gives victory
I will reign with Him in reverence for He ransomed me
I can’t wait to get to heaven
 
I can’t wait to get to heaven, won’t you come with me
Asking Jesus to forgive you, make Him Lord and King
You will be with us forever in eternity
I can’t wait to get to heaven
 
Singing hallelujah to the Kind of Kings
Singing hallelujah to the Lamb
Singing hallelujah to the Lord of Lords
Jesus is the great I AM

Free

Jesus you’re my guiding light
Jesus you turn dark to light
Jesus you have won the fight
And set the captives free
 
Jesus you have shown the way
Jesus you give grace each day
Jesus you’re the one I praise
For you have set me free
 
Free from all my past of sin
Free from troubles deep within
Free from what my life has been
You’ve made me new today
 
Free from fear and doubt and shame
Free from playing satan’s games
Free from being quite insane
You’ve showed me a new way
So I will sing your praises loud
So all the world can hear
That Jesus is the Lord of all
There’s nothing now to fear
 
Just give your life to Him today
And He’ll show you a brand new way
His mercy and His grace abound
To all who call His name.

He’s my Shepherd

Sometimes in the night He calls to me
Reminding me that He will meet my needs
Whispering He’s come to give me peace
If I’ll only walk each day with Him
 
Sometimes in the day He calls my name
Reminding me that I am not the same
Whispering he took my guilt and shame
If I’ll only make Him Lord of my life
 
He leads me by the waters sweet
He restores my longing soul
He walks with me in paths of righteousness
He’s my Shepherd and my Lord
And even when I walk through valleys dark
His rod and staff are by my side
He’ll anoint my head with Holy Spirt oil
And In His house I will abide
 
Sometimes in the quiet He speaks to me
Reminding me that he’s right there withe
Whispering He’ll be with me eternally
If I’ll only make Him Lord of my Life
So I will sing His praise forevermore
Loud Hosanna sung forevermore
Worship His sweet name forevermore
Jesus is the Lord of my life

My Name is Jesus

I came to set you free
I came new life to bring
I came to teach you how to love
I came to heal your heart
I came to teach you life
I left my glory high above
To come die for you

I took your place upon the cross
I took your sin and shame away
I took your pain and suffering
And I gave you victory
I took your tears and dried your eyes
I took your heartache and your cries
I took them to the cross for you

Then I arose to heaven above
And I left you with my love
I will prepare a place for you
And I’ll come back to rescue you
Then you can live eternally with me

My name is Jesus
Name above all names
My name is Jesus
Mercy I bring
My name is Jesus
Lord of the ages
My name is Jesus
King of all Kings

My worship I will raise
 
You are mighty, You are holy
You are worthy, Father God
You are mighty, You are holy
You are worthy, Father God
 
I will lift my hands to you
In surrender to your plan

You are mighty, You are holy
You are worthy, Father God
You are mighty, You are holy
You are worthy, Father God

Time to dance around the throne of God
To Him our hearts we raise
 
For He alone is worthy

My Prayer

I bowed my head and heard His voice

“My son, it’s time to make your choice.

Will you follow this world and it’s ways

Or follow me all of your days?”

 

I said “Dear Lord, I follow you

In everything I say and do.

I want your love to flow through me

For this entire world to see”

 

He then spoke in his loving way

“My Son, your life is now in sway

The world still has it’s hold on you

It’s time you showed your love is true”

 

I said “Dear Lord, what must I do

To prove that I would follow you”

He came real close to me and said

“My child, your self needs to be dead.

 

No more can sin be part of you

No more will lies and cheating do

No more can pride lift up your head

No more can selfish ways be bred

No more can words be harsh and cruel

No more can anger be the rule

No more can sin be part of you

If to me you’ll dare be true”

 

I bowed my head and closed my eyes

And said a prayer that reached the skies

I asked him to forgive my ways

Vowed that I would change this day

 

I’ll put aside those things I did

That aren’t spawned from your love within

And men will see the light shine through

In everything I say and do.

 

 

I felt His loving hands touch mine

And felt His holy love divine

He said “My child, that’s all I ask

I knew that you could do the task”

 

So from now on, please let me know

If you His love I do not show

Let mercy reign and grace abound

To everyone who comes around

 

For my desire is plan to see

That my Lord is pleased with me

For that is what my life is for

To bring much pleasure to my Lord
