Longing

I long for the sound of His voice
Teaching me how to rejoice
He whispers so clear
In my spiritual ear
Hoping I'll make the right choice

I long for the feel touch of His hand
Confirming the path of His plan
As he gently leads
And quietly pleads
He urges me to understand

He loves me, more than I can know
He loves me, and promises to show
His grace is complete
As I sit at His feet
Oh, How He loves me so

I long to see His face
To feel His warm embrace
He's always right there
To hear every prayer
He leads me inside heavens gates

I long to know His love
Streaming down from above
He dwells deep inside
In my heart he abides
His spirit descends like a dove

He loves me, more than I can know
He loves me, and promises to show
His grace is complete
As I sit at His feet
Oh, How He loves me so

I shout Hallelujah to His name
Glorious Hallelujahs to His name
His praises I sing
My worship I bring
My voice cries blessed be His name
My voice cries blessed be His name

How I Love You

Lord, you are more beautiful than rainbows in the sky
Lord, you are more wonderful than eagles as they fly
Lord you are magnificent in everything you do
Jesus, how I love you

Lord, you are more glorious than roses as they bloom
Lord, you are more marvelous then either sun or moon
Lord, you are the only one who walks with me each day
Jesus, how I love you

You are so holy, so awesome in my life
You are so holy, I lift your name on high
You're grace and mercy lead me through the day
Jesus,. how I love you

Lord, you are so merciful, you gave your life for me
Lord, you are so gracious, your blood has ransomed me
Lord your love is so complete it covers all my sin
Jesus, how I love you

I lift my voice to sing in thankful praise
I lift my heart and worship your sweet name
I life my eyes, I long to see your face
Jesus, how I love you

You are so holy, so awesome in my life
You are so holy, I lift your name on high
You're grace and mercy lead me through the day
Jesus, how I love you

My Part

I often sit and wonder,
In my quiet little place –
If this love will last forever,
And a smile comes on my face.

Again, this is so different –
The feelings are immense,
My first life has been spent
Without question of expense.

I can feel his love so deeply
In my heart throughout the day,
And I know that I will always be
Walking in his Holy way.

And I truly thank you Lord of all
For the love you bring within;
I have heard your true and Holy call,
I will never turn again.

You fill my life with joy
In a world where I was lost,
I no longer feel that I’m a boy –
I’m a man; I’ve paid the cost.

Now Jesus lives within me,
And a love does fill my heart
That I wish to share with all of you
To fulfill my rightful part.

Jesus Christ Forevermore

My heart is in your hand Lord
My feet at your command
Held me understand
Your will and your plan

My spirit longs for you
In everything I do
Let me life be true
As I worship you

Sing hosanna in the highest
Sing hosanna to the Lord
With your whole heart lift His praises
Jesus Christ forevermore

My mind and soul seek mercy
Ever since you found me
I am far from worthy
Of your grace and mercy

Help me, Lord, please help me
Help me find my way
Through this earthly vessel
To your kingdom’s gates

I can’t do it by myself
I need help every day
I can always count on your
To extend your grace

Sing hosanna in the highest
Sing hosanna to the Lord
With your whole heart lift His praises
Jesus Christ forevermore

Every Moment

 Making time
 Losing time
 Forgetting the time
 We all have the same amount
 Ever minute, every day, every year
 It's not a matter of how much time
 But how we use the time
 It is a gift to us
 A precious gift
 From God
 Do I squander it?
 Do I plan it?
 Do I ignore it?
 Do I watch it?
 Do I use it to the fullest,
 Or squander it away?
 God's gifts are meant to be cherished
 Every moment should be cherished
 Every moment accounted for
 Every moment be made special
 Every moment given back to Him.
 I will lift my praise every moment
 I will lift my prayers every moment
 I will lift His name every moment
 I will honor Him every moment
 How will you use your time today?

All That I Desire

I want to see your face
Put my hand in your hand
 Hear you whisper in my ear
 Walk beside you through this land
 
 I want to have your blessing
 As we walk side by side
 Knowing you will never leave me
 If with you I abide
  
 Jesus, precious Jesus
 You are all that I desire
 Your Holy Spirit guiding me
 Will set my heart on fire
 Help me live a life of mercy
 Help me live a life of grace
 Because that is what it takes
 If I want to see your face
  
 I want to have you smile at me
 And tell me job well done
 I want your love to flow through me
 Reaching everyone
 
 I want to see the nations saved
 So all will sing your praise
 Because there's nothing more I love
 Than worshiping your name
  
 Jesus, precious Jesus
 You are all that I desire
 Your Holy Spirit guiding me
 Will set my heart on fire
 Help me live a life of mercy
 Help me live a life of grace
 Because that is what it takes
 If I want to see your face

So Few

 He was born in a stable in little Bethlehem
 Laid in a manger sleeping on the hay
 Angels beckoned shepherds and kings from other lands
 To see the Son of God that day
  
 What they all knew is that He was born a King
 Despite the surroundings they could see
 Mary and Joseph knew glad tidings He would bring
 The Son of Man would show the way
  
 Oh, what a blessing
 Oh , what an honor
 Oh, what a solemn call it is
 So few had come to the baby born that night
 So few knew Him as a King
  
 Today we decorate with lights and candy canes
 Presents are set under a Christmas tree
 But there are so few that really recognize the day
 As a day they celebrate their King
  
 They think He’s a prophet or a teacher of great truths
 They think He’s a wise man with a gift
 Some even think He’s a fable and never really lived
 Oh how wrong they are to miss the King
  
 Oh, what a blessing
 Oh, what an honor
 Oh, what a solemn call it is
 To be among the few who call this baby King
 So few make Him Lord of their lives
  
 So few bow down to the baby born that night
 So few know the Savior has arrived
 So few recognize He came to give His life
 So few will bow before His throne
  
 The shepherds Knew the story
 The wise men knew the story
 Mary and Joseph knew the story
 Do you? 

My Part

 I often sit and wonder,
 In my quiet little place –
 If this love will last forever,
 And a smile comes on my face.
  
 Again, this is so different – 
 The feelings are immense,
 My first life has been spent
 Without question of expense.
  
 I can feel his love so deeply
 In my heart throughout the day,
 And I know that I will always be
 Walking in his Holy way.
  
 And I truly thank you Lord of all
 For the love you bring within;
 I have heard your true and Holy call,
 I will never turn again.
  
 You fill my life with joy
 In a world where I was lost,
 I no longer feel that I’m a boy – 
 I’m a man; I’ve paid the cost.
  
 Now Jesus lives within me,
 And a love does fill my heart
 That I wish to share with all of you
 To fulfill my rightful part.

Never Will I Ever Leave You

Never have I ever known a friend so faithful
Never have I ever known such joy
Never have I ever known a love unending
Never have I ever met one like you
 
CHORUS
Jesus what a name.  Name above all names
Mighty Redeemer. Healer of my soul
Jesus, Jesus. How I love that name
Never will I ever leave you
 
Never have I ever seen such healing power
Never have I ever seen such peace
Never have I ever seen a smile so radiant
Never have I ever met one like you
 
CHORUS

BRIDGE
You fill my heart with joy unspeakable,
Peace unmatchable, love undeniable (REPEAT)
Never will I ever leave you
 
CHORUS
