Always and Forever

God’s been good to me
Always
The circumstances may look bleak
My health my not be good
My finances may struggle
But God has been good to me
Always

God’s been merciful to me
Always
He delivers me from evil
He holds me tightly in His arms
He reassures me with His peace
He has been merciful to me
Always

God’s been gracious to me
Always
He has forgiven me countless times
He has overlooked my faults
He has provided when I have failed
He has been gracious to me
Always

Even when I cannot see it
He is good
Even when I cannot understand
He is merciful
Even when I lose my way
He is gracious
Always and forever
He loves me

So when I’m down and out
When life seems upside down
When sorrow or sickness come
When darkness is in my life
I will still praise Him
I will still worship Him
I will still trust Him

Because Always and Forever
He loves me

Love Like Jesus Loved

To love like Jesus loved we have to love them all the same
It doesn’t matter where there from or how they spell their name
Thin or tall, large or short their size is not an issue
Neither is the color of their skin or what they’ve been through

To love like Jesus loved we must remember who we are
Sinners that are saved by grace because we gave our heart
No one deserves His grace at all especially not me
Who am I to keep that grace when He says set it free

To love like Jesus loved means to reach out every day
We must give all we have to those who need to find their way
We cannot pick and choose who comes across our daily path
Each person that we meet is someone He has planted there

To love like Jesus loved means to put away our pride
It means that when we get put down we take it all in stride
It means that grace is over all and mercy rules the day
It means that when someone needs help we take the time to pray

To love like Jesus loved is not an option we can shun
He gave us His command that we must reach to everyone
So let’s get busy church and do the bidding of the Lord
Because to love like Jesus loved is what He truly called us for

Always and Forever

God’s been good to me

You Love Me So

Solemnly 
I wait for thee
Your grace
Your love
Your sweet mercy
All around me
This I see
Because you love me so

Silently
I wait for thee
Listening
To hear you speak
Knowing
You will comfort me
Because you love me so

Undeserving
That is me
I am truly
Unworthy
Yet you came
And died for me
Because you love me so

Resting in
Your constant love
Daily you
Send from above
All my praise
Is not enough
To show I love you so

A Poetic Love Chapter

I can sing my sweet praise to Jesus
I can shout out and dance in praise
But if I am not showing love
All of my worship is vain

I can speak prophetic and mighty
Or give out a message in tongues
But if I do not love my neighbor
My words will not touch anyone

I can give away all my possessions
Or feed and clothe those that are poor
But if love is not my compulsion
My deeds will just be ignored

Love must be patient kind and not proud
Envy and boasting must flee
Love gives out honor and seeks not for self
Anger must not ever be

Love forgets wrongs and evil it hates
Rejoicing in only the truth
Love will protect trust hope and preserve
Love never fails to bring fruit

Prophets and tongues will one day be gone
And knowledge will pass away
For now we only can do these in part
When Jesus returns they won't stay

When I was a child my life did those things
That children are apt to do
But when I grew up, childish things had to go
Now I must see things in full

In this world we have faith hope and love that sustain
They are gifts from our Father above
But when we look through the eyes of the Lord
The greatest of these is love

Now I Know

I didn't know how much He loved me
Didn't know how much He cared
When I used to curse and mock His name
I didn't realize His passion
To fellowship with me
I just would not take the time to change
Then I heard the ancient story
Of a King who came to die
And I bowed down on my knees and cried

Now I know
You love me so
You gave your life
So I could thrive
I'm aware
How much you care
I give my all
To heed your call
Now I know

If you cannot see His mercy
'Cause your life is such a mess
Let me tell you I have felt the same way
I was living in a frenzy
I was lost in misery
And I didn't understand His grace
But one day He whispered softly
My son, I love you so
If you listen He will call to you

Don't you know
I love you so
I gave my life
So you could thrive
Be aware
How much I care
Give your all
To heed my call
Don't you know

It doesn't take a genius
To see His great love
It only takes a moment
To open up your heart
He will bring His mercy
Into your life today
If you'll just take the time
To say

Now I know
You love me so
You gave your life
So I could thrive
I'm aware
How much you care
I give my all
To heed your call
Now I know

Now That I Know

There was a time
When I knew not
What Jesus did for me
I hadn't heard
About His love
Or death on Calvary

I didn't know
His sacrifice
Was given in my place
I hadn't heard
Of His mercy
Or His amazing grace
But now that I know I'll praise Him
From the dawn 'til setting sun
I'll lift my voice and hands up high
For all that He has done
I'll praise Him for His goodness
I'll praise Him for His love
I'll praise Him for the mansion
He has built for me above
Now that I know
What Jesus did
To set me free from sin
Others must hear
About His love
And all He's done for them

I'll let them know
The price He paid
That He died to set them free
I'll share the word
And testify
The He would die for me
I will worship Him on high
And I will praise His name
I'll tell the world of His great love
I'll tell them how I've changed

And when I get the chance to pray
For someone to be saved
I'll celebrate with the heav’nly host
And lift His name in praise
Oh, glory to the Son of God
Glory to His name
His love has saved us all from sin
I'll lift my voice in praise

Great and Wondrous Love

How can God begin to know a little worm like me
How can God begin to hear the prayers that I speak
How can God begin to plan the future that I seek
When all the universe is Hs domain

How can God begin to bring the healing that I need
How can God begin to cause deliverance in me
How can God begin to send His Spirit to guide me
When all creation cries to Him each day

The answer to these questions
Is found inside His word
It’s really very simple
But to logic it’s absurd
That the God of all creation
Would care about just one
And hear his every cry
Because of His great love

Yes, it’s His love
His great and wondrous love
That brings Him to do all these things for us
It’s His love
His great and wondrous love
That brought Him down to earth and to a cross

It’s so hard to understand it
But by faith we take His hand
As He carries us through trials
And He shows us His great plan

I’m in awe of His great mercy
I’m so glad for His great grace
I will trust in Him forever
And one day I’ll see Hs face

Yes, it’s His love
His great and wondrous love
That brings Him to do all these things for us
It’s His love
His great and wondrous love
That brought Him down to earth and to a cross

The Great, Great Love of Jesus

Oh, the great, great love of Jesus
Overwhelms me every day
And I find that I am trusting
In His mercy and His grace

When I think about His majesty
And How He reigns supreme
I can’t fathom why he gave His life
To save a wretch like me

Oh, the great, great love of Jesus
Reaches out to touch my heart
And I find that I am resting
In the peace He does impart

When I think about His royalty
The King of Kings is He
I am awed that he would take the time
To walk beside of me

Of, the great, great love of Jesus
Fills me with a raging fire
Beckons me to tell the all that I meet
They are His hearts desire

As I Am

Who knows where the waves take form and start out?
Who knows where they travel, or when they will stop?
Who knows how high or how far they will go?
Only the God I serve

Who knows where the clouds have taken their shape?
Of how big they’ll get, or when dissipate?
Who guilds them at morn and paints them at night?
Only the God I serve

Our God is amazing, He knows everything
From the depths of all nature to what makes birds sing
His wisdom is more than imaginable
And He loves me just as I am.

Who placed the stars and calls them by name?
Who has arranged them to show us His grace?
Who knows how for their light will stay bright?
Only the God I serve

Our God is incredible. There’s no one like Him
He sits in the on His throne and controls everything
Yet He still takes the time to hear when I pray
And He loves me just as I am.

So I will lift up His praise to the sky
I’ll shout from the rooftops as others pass by
My God is the one who can transform your lives
And He loves you just as you are.
