Mercy Is All

Leave a reply
There are so many times
I know in my heart
His mercy is all that I need
From the most desperate days
To the oft sleepless nights
He mercy will cover me
When I’m sick in my bed
And a daze fills my head
His mercy is all that I need
Because no matter how long
It takes healing to come
His mercy will cover me
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.
When I feel down and out
And I just want to shout
His mercy is all that I need
Because I know that He
Is right there with me
His mercy will cover me
When the enemies strong
And I don’t have a song
His mercy is all that I need
He’ll raise up His hand
And help me to stand
His mercy will cover me
I’ll trust in the Lord
With all my heart
And I won’t trust in those things I know
I’ll acknowledge Him
In all my ways
And He will make my paths known
Oh mercy of God
So large and so free
There is none that can compare
To the marvelous trust
I can have in your love
Because your mercy is always there.

Closer

Leave a reply
Each passing moment
Brings me closer to you
Whether through trial
Or whether I’m blue
Because every time
I am feeling my worst
Your always there
To quench every thirst
Each passing moment
Brings more of your grace
When I can’t feel your touch
When I can’t see your face
I know that your near me
Only by faith
And that while I am waiting
Every tear you’ll erase.
Closer to you through the weakness in me
Closer to you when I bow on my knees
Closer to you when I can’t find my way
Lord draw me closer to you every day
Each passing moment
Brings mercies untold
You spare me from things
That would damage my soul
And fill me with hope
That will soon overflow
Because great is your love
For me.
Closer to you when I feel far away
Closer to you when I can’t stop and pray
Closer to you when my path is obscured
Lord draw me closer, please help me see you
Only through trials
When my faith is tried
Will you draw my closer
To your loving side
So Lord let the trials
Of life come way
So I may draw closer
To you every day.

 

Mercy Covers All

Leave a reply
When I call on you in my darkest day
You will hear the words that I say
And you’ll answer me in your timely way
‘Cause it’s in your name that I pray
And when tears arise in the dead of night
And I cry to you out of fright
You will come to me with your peace so right
And you’ll lead me to your light
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fall
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all
When my doubt is large, and my faith is small
I can always trust in your call
You will see my fear and you’ll give your all
To revive me when I fall
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fall
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all
You hear my every prayer
Your answers always there
Though it may not be
What I want to see
I know you’re always fair
You’ll give to me
Just what I need
Every time I pray
What an awesome friend you are
Always there for me when I fal
You show grace to me
Every time I need
And your mercy covers all

All of Creation Sings

Leave a reply

(This is a song I wrote back in 2012.  Hope you enjoy it.  I have many more)

The trees wave their arms,

The birds sing their songs,

The stars show their light for His glory

Each sunset displays

His wonderful ways,

And the heavens cry out with his story

All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings.

He gives us everything good in our lives

 

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,

All of creation adores Him

I will sing with the birds,

And wave with the trees,

And shine His light brightly each day

For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord

 

The flowers bloom bright

In the glorious sunlight,

The rains bring them life for His glory

The thunder proclaims,

The lightning exclaims,

And the heavens cry out with his story

All of creation sings praise to the King of Kings.

He gives us everything good in our lives

 

The sun and the moon and the stars up above

Bring order to man just to show us His love

The earth is renewed by the heavens each day

As he shows us His marvelous ways

 

I will lift up my hands to the Lord,

All of creation adores Him

I will sing with the birds,

And wave with the trees,

And shine His light brightly each day

For He is Lord, For He is Lord, For He is Lord

One Day

Leave a reply

One day this old world will be left far behind

My troubles will all disappear

Since I have accepted my sweet Saviors love

I look for that day He appears

 

My eyes will look upward to clouds overhead

And suddenly He will arrive

And all who have made Him their Savior and Lord

Will rise up to meet in the skies

 

On that day we’ll be dancing to heavenly choirs

On that day we will pass pearly gates

On that day we will have no more pain, no more tears

On that day we will see Jesus face

 

Singing power and glory and honor and praise

To the Lamb seated high on the throne

Seeing cherubim dancing a heavenly dance

To the King who has called us His own

 

That day will come soon so don’t wait any more

To tell all your friends it is near

Let your loved ones all hear the great power of His love

And pray that they’ll open their ears

 

And when Jesus arrives they will rise up with Him

And will be carried into His arms

Then they’ll rejoice with us as we enter those gates

Where will spend all eternity time

 

On that day we’ll be dancing to heavenly choirs

On that day we will pass pearly gates

On that day we will have no more pain, no more tears

On that day we will see Jesus face

 

Singing power and glory and honor and praise

To the Lamb seated high on the throne

Seeing cherubim dancing a heavenly dance

To the King who has called us His own

Come and Let Us Sing

Hallelujah

Leave a reply

Hallelujah! what a word

So much fun to sing

Lifting high our praises

To Jesus Christ our king

 

Hallelujah makes a song

Sound more than heavenly

Our hearts are lifted by its sound

We sing to royalty.

 

I love the sound of Hallelujah

Ringing through my ears

It lifts me up and fills my heart

And takes away my fear

 

I love to sing His Hallelujah

Jesus Christ my Lord

This word that’s sung in heaven

To the one that we adore

 

Sing Hallelujah to the Lamb

Who sits upon the throne

Hallelujah to the Son

Who came to die alone

Hallelujah to our King

Jesus crucified

Hallelujah to our Lord

Rose to give us life

Smile!

I smile when I think of Jesus
And how He loves me so
The love I feel deep down inside
Just grows and grows and grows
I know that He is King of Kings
And Lord of time and space
But when I think how He loves me
A smile comes on my face
 
There is no time for sadness
When He speaks in my ear
His words of love are always true
If only I will hear
He’ll tell me how He loves me
And show me by His grace
So when I see the love He has
A smile comes on my face
 
I don’t have to be perfect
For Him to love me so
I only have to trust Him
And watch His deep love grow
He’ll come and guide me daily
With His spirit from above
If I will only take the time
To believe in His great love
 
So day by day I watch for Him
To light the morning sky
I watch as birds sing praises
While they gracefully pass by
I watch the rain bring bounty
When the earth becomes too dry
For all this shows He loves me
Until the day I die
 
If you are a Christian
Or even if you’re not
This little tale will tell you
That you are loved by God
And all of His creation
Is given just for you
To bring a smile from heaven
Because my God loves you

His Awesome Worth

Blow the trumpets. Sound the horns
Let your praises ring
He alone is worthy
Jesus Christ our King
Lift your hands up to the sky
Shout with all your heart
To the one who reigns above
Jesus Christ our Lord
He’s the one who saved us
From our life of sin
He’s the one who heals us
From each pain within
He is our deliverer
From the devil’s grip
He is our protector
When our defense slips
He is our provider
Filling every need
He is our salvation
He’s the one we seek
He us our strong refuge
In the time of storm
He’s the one who strengthens
When we’re tired and worn

Mercy to all who fear Him
There is no other God
No image man can make
Nor any other person
Who can ever take His place
Because He is the King of Kings
And Lord of all the earth
We can only lift our voice
And praise His awesome worth.
Blow the trumpets. Sound the horns
Let your praises ring
He alone is worthy
Jesus Christ our King
Lift your hands up to the sky
Shout with all your heart
To the one who reigns above
Jesus Christ our Lord

He Delivers

Leave a reply
He Delivers me.
When I’m sick and in need
He heals my disease
He Delivers me
He Delivers me
From the shackles of sin
He brings peace within
He Delivers me
He will not leave me desperate
He will not let me fail
He holds me in the palm of His hand
And when I’m feeling lonely
He draws near to my side
And reminds me of His good and righteous plan
He delivers me
When I fall down on my face
He puts me back in place
He delivers me
He delivers me
Whe I feel like giving up
He comes and fills my cup
He Delivers me
He will not leave me broken
He meets my every need
He’s always there when trouble comes my way
And when I am discouraged
He reminds me of His love
And once again I’m in His sure embrace
So I will trust Him everyday
And never doubt orr fear
For when my Savior comes my way
He Delivers me.
