Glory to God in the Highest

Leave a reply 
 I see the star, brightly shining, in the calm and dark of night
 I see the shepherds, as they’re warming, by a fire with dimming light
 I see the sheep, gently gazing, in the shepherds watchful sight
 I see a scene, oh how serene, on this holiest of nights
  
 Suddenly the sky is parted by an angel glorious
 Singing praise and peace on earth, sounding quite victorious
 Fear thou not, the Savior comes, in a manger in a hush
 Then an multitude arrives as shepherds watch the chorus
  
 Glory to God. Glory to God
 Glory to God in the highest
 Peace on earth good will to men
 Glory to God in the highest
  
 Shepherds leave their flocks by night to find the lowly manger
 They arrive and see the babe. They do not feel like strangers
 They bow before the child and sing the song the angels gave them
 The highest praise to Christ the King as he lay in the manger
  
 Glory to God.  Glory to God
 Glory to God in the highest
 Peace on earth.  Good will to men
 Glory to God in the highest
  
 The highest praise to Christ the King
 The shepherds pledge Him everything
 They leave and tell the world they’ve seen
 The Savior of the world
  
 Glory to God.  Glory to God
 Glory to God in the highest
 Peace on earth.  Good will to men
 Glory to God in the highest

Still on the Throne

Leave a reply 
 When I’m weary and worn I should praise Him
 When I’m tattered and torn I should [praise Him,
 When I have many doubts
 Or my should is worn out
 I should lift up my hands and praise Him
  
 He is still on the throne, still on the throne of my heart
 He is Almighty God creator of heaven and earth
 When is seems there’s no reason
 That’s the best time to praise Him
 Give to God the glory that’s due to His name
  
 For He is worthy, worthy, worthy of all my praise
 He is worthy, worthy, worthy of all my praise

Music To My Ears

 When I think about the fact
 That He left His royal throne
 I can’t help but praise His name
 When I think about the fact
 In a stable He was born
 I can’t help but praise His name
 When I think about the star
 That led the wise men there
 And the great angelic choir
 That the shepherds saw in fear
 When I think about His love
 To become a babe so dear
 I can’t help but praise His name
  
 Bless His name.  His mighty name
 The name of Jesus is so sweet and so fair
 Bless His name.  The matchless name
 The name of Jesus is music to my ears
  
 When I think about the fact
 He bore the stripes for me
 I can’t help but praise His name
 When I think about the fact
 That He died to set me free
 I can’t help but praise His name
 When I think about the pain
 That He endured for me
 How He gave His life for all
 That day at Calvary
 When I think about the grace
 That He poured out for me
 I can’t help but praise His name
  
 Bless His name.  His mighty name
 The name of Jesus is so sweet and so fair
 Bless His name.  The matchless name
 The name of Jesus is music to my ears
  
 I’ll sing His praise
 Every day
 With Loudest voice
 And hands up-raised
 I’ll lift Him high
 With all my might
 The wondrous name
 Of Jesus
  
 Bless His name.  His mighty name
 The name of Jesus is so sweet and so fair
 Bless His name.  The matchless name
 The name of Jesus is music to my ears

Alive and Breathing

 Alive!
 Breathing!!
 Viewing His beautiful creation.
 Smelling His glorious scents.
 Hearing the wonder of nature.
 Feeling the wind in my face.
  
 Alive!
 Breathing!
 My mind is full of His word
 My thoughts ever honor His name
 My heart desires to praise Him
 My soul longs to hear Him again
  
 Alive!
 Breathing!
 What a joy that he gives me this day
 To bask in the life He has blessed
 To take in the whole of creation
 To know I can lean on His breast
  
 He gives me breath
 He gives me sight
 He gives me hearing
 He gives me smell
 He gives me touch
 He gives me life
 To enjoy His creation
 To lift up His name
 In praise.
  
 Alive!
 Breathing!
 What a glorious day this will be!

A Long Way To Go

Leave a reply 
 I don’t understand your mercy that wipes away all my sin
 I don’t understand your marvelous grace that blesses me once again
 I don’t understand the peace that instills a calm within my soul
 I don’t understand the joy overflowing when sorrow tries to take hold
  
 I have a long way to go but I know how to get there
 I’m trusting you all the way
 Day by day you will show me the road I should travel
 There is no other way
 I’m falling in love with you more all the time
 I just want to see your face
 So I will praise you.  I will praise you.
  
 I don’t understand this hope that arises when darkness is all I see
 I don’t understand why you give me wisdom when I act so foolishly
 I don’t understand the way that your light reveals all my deepest shame
 I don’t understand your love for me before I knew your name
  
 I have a long way to go but I know how to get there
 Your Spirit dwells in my heart
 There is no other one who can light up my path
 Reveling to me my part
 Every day I desire to do your will more than the day before
 My one desire  is to see your face
 So I will praise you.  I will praise you
  
 Down on my knees, my face in my hands
 I humbly bow down at your throne
 Lord hear my cry, hear my plea
 I’m begging you please hear my cry
 I love you Lord.  I love you Lord

Ancient of Days

Leave a reply 
 He stands at the door knocking, waiting for your heart to open to Him
 He stands at the door knocking, Hoping you will let Him in
 His invitation’s open to all who will come hungry. Hungry for the bread of life
 His invitation’s open to all whose souls are thirsty. Thirsty for the living water
 He will light the way.  He will show you truth. He will give new life to you
 Don’t be left behind. He is coming soon.  He is coming back for you.
  
 Come into His presence
 Come into His chambers
 Come into the ancient of days
 Come with hallelujahs
 Come with highest praises
 Come into the ancient of days
 And give Him praise
 Give Him praise
 Give Him praise

I Pour Out My Life

 I pour out my life to you
 My soul longs to worship
 My heart longs to praise
 I pour out my life to you
 All of my days
  
 For you are Lord of Lords
 You are King of Kings
 You are more than life to me
 Jesus my heart cries out
 I cannot live without you
 Lord, pour your love on me.
