Nothing Too Hard

2 Replies
There’s nothing to hard
Nothing impossible
Nothing my God can’t do
Mountains can move
Rivers can stop
So He can guide you through
No sickness can stay
Disease must obey
When God sets His mind on you
All enemies flee
When my God speaks
His words are power and truth
Lift up His name
Give our God praise
Worship His holy name
Jesus our Lord
King evermore
Worthy of all our praise
When my prayers go up
To His throne above
His answer is on the way
Just wait on the Lord
His timing is sure
There’s blessing in every delay
When fear fills your heart
And doubt gets a start
That God may not hear your request
Just turn to His word
And know that He heard
He’ll give you His absolute best
Lift up His name
Give our God praise
Worship His holy name
Jesus our Lord
King evermore
Worthy of all our praise
When Jesus had died
On the cross crucified
A large stone was sealed for the door
The stone rolled away
That marvelous day
Now He lives forevermore
Lift up His name
Give our God praise
Worship His holy name
Jesus our Lord
King evermore
Worthy of all our praise

No Worries

I never have to worry
If you are here with me
Because your word tells
That’s where you’ll always be

I never have to worry
If you will hear my prayer
Because you word s true
When you say you’ll lend an ear

The world may think it’s silly
For me to have such faith
But I will just ignore them
And praise you all the way

I never have to worry
If you will strengthen me
When the trials come my way
Your strength is all I need

I never have to worry
If you will be on time
Your answer will come when
And however you decide

The world thinks I am crazy
To trust you all the way
But you have never failed me
No, not any single day

I think it’s ’cause I praise you
From morning until night
life my voice in worship
You make all things right

And when I sing your prayers
My worries disappear
You come and fill my spirit
With words of peace and cheer

So I will go on praising you
Every moment, every day
And all my doubt and worry
Will swiftly fade away

Drawing Near

Do not fear
Do not doubt
God is on your side
Give a cheer
Give a shout
God is drawing near

See His peace
See His joy
God will grant your prayer
Feel His touch
Feel His love
God is drawing near

He’ll never ever leave you
He’ll be right by your side
He’ll free you from your sin
And give to you new life

Lift your hands and praise Him
Lift your voices to the sky
Lift your hearts and worship
Our God, the Lord Most High

What An Amazing God

Leave a reply
What an amazing God He is
Gives me mercy undeserved
Instructs me with His living word
What an amazing God
What a wonderful God He is
Loved me when I turned from Him
Sought me out to bring me in
What a wonderful God
There are no words of praise to big
No worship not deserved
I’ll lift my hands and to Him sing
As I declare His worth
What a merciful  God He is
Gave His Son a sacrifice
For my sun and for my life
What a merciful God
There are no words of praise to big
No worship not deserved
I’ll lift my hands and to Him sing
As I declare His worth
More than rubies
More than silver
More than gold is He
More than emeralds
More than diamonds
He is all I need
There are no words of praise to big
No worship not deserved
I’ll lift my hands and to Him sing
As I declare His worth

My Souls’ Provider

Leave a reply

If I had all the wealth
This world had to offer
I’d still be a pauper to Him

If I had all possessions
That made my life fun
I’d still lack all He has to give

I had many friends
That surround me each day
It would not compare to His love

If I had a big house
Where I could relax
It would pale to my mansion above

Incredible are His blessings
Marvelous is His love
Amazing is His provision
What He gives is always enough

The Fruit of the Spirit fulfill me
His mercy and grace never cease
As He walks with me every day of my life
I can rest in His wonderful peace

I will lift up His praise forever
I will worship His wonderful name
For He is my souls’ provider
Every day I will give Him my praise

Something New

Leave a reply

I heard a tale I’d heard before
When I was just a child
I wondered if it’s truth or lore
Because this time I was wild

It told of one who gave His life
To take away my sins
It said He was my sacrifice
To bring me peace within

When I realized the tale was true
I did not hesitate
To try Him out as something new
Before it was too late

Now I must say He rescued me
From all my guilt and shame
Come to Him and you will see
For you He’ll do the same

It’s Remarkable

Leave a reply

I wish I could tell you why He loves me
I have always been so unworthy
I’d try to explain why He set me free
From all my sin and shame

I wish I could tell you why He still cares
When so many times I’m entangled in snares
I stray from His side and get caught unawares
And find myself calling His name

Through all of my trials and all of the tests
He still walks beside me and gives me His rest
I wish I could find the words that say best
How much He does love us so

It’s remarkable
It’s unthinkable
That Jesus would love me so
So magnanimous
He is marvelous
His love reaches down so low
From heaven above to earth below
His love reaches me this I always know
Though I can’t explain it still it is true
That He loves me and He loves you

I can only tell you that it’s real my friend
That His love will stay with you until the end
He is there right beside you to help you win
The trials you face in this life

His love is much deeper than I can explain
So I just continue to give Him my praise
I can’t help but worship His wonderful name
All of the days of my life

It’s remarkable
It’s unthinkable
That Jesus would love me so
So magnanimous
He is marvelous
His love reaches down so low
From heaven above to earth below
His love reaches me this I always know
Though I can’t explain it still it is true
That He loves me and He loves you

Implicit Trust

Leave a reply

I trust the Lord
Implicitly
No doubt
No confusion
No wondering

Many times
It’s not a matter of what
Or How
Or Why

It’s a matter of when
The answer will come

It’s in His hand
And on His schedule
Because
He knows what’s best
For me.

So I learn to wait
Wait for healing
Wait for deliverance
Wait for understanding
Wait for Him
 
And in my waiting
I praise Him
I rejoice
In His mercy
And grace

What an awesome God
I serve
He gives so much
To me
When I lift up
My prayer
He hears me
Yes  He hears me
What an awesome God
I serve

Get A Boost

It won’t make us faster
Or taller or thinner
When we give our hearts to the Lord
It won’t make us stronger
Or better or purer
To start to rely on His word

But He promises us
He will quicken our bodies
That means we will be more alive
Most days I need a good
Boost to my spirit
So I’m glad to give Him my life
