Jesus, You Are

Jesus, what a wonder
You put the stars in place
Separated earth and sky
Set the sun in space
Brought up food from fertile ground
Spoke and animals abound
Jesus, what a wonder you are

Jesus, your incredible
Came to earth a babe
Left your throne in glory
In a manger lay
Shepherds bowed in worship
Wise men brought great gifts
Jesus, how incredible you are

Jesus, your amazing
Ministered three years
Walked among the people
Joy flowed out in tears
Lowly men would hear Him
Learned men turned from Him
Jesus, how amazing you are

Jesus, you are mercy
Died upon the cross
Gave your life so freely
Paid such a big cost
Ransomed me from all my sin
Then you brought me peace within
Jesus, you are mercy to me

In all the ways of time and space
There’s no one who can take your place
I long to be in your embrace
Safe from any harm
So I will praise your mighty name
You ransomed me, Your name I’ll raise
For all the marvels you have made

You surround me with your peace, Oh Lord
I am resting in your arms, I’m yours
All my worries gone away
I am calm throughout the day
Since your peace is nestled in my heart

You surround me with your joy, Oh Lord
I can face the trials that reach my door
Nothing causes me dismay
As I trust in you each day
Since your joy is nestled in my soul

You surround me with your hope, oh Lord
My future is secure, this I know
While the world is running wild
I remain both calm and mild
Since your hope is nestled way below

You surround me with your victory Lord
The enemy’s defeated by your word
All I have to do is speak
And the enemy retreats
Since your victory is mine for sure

You surround me with your love, Of Lord
I will seek you as it’s you I adore
My I never cease to praise
Your wonderful, sweet name
Since your love is mine and so much more.

More Of Him

Leave a reply 
This world goes after power
Fame and fortune is their goal
They often buy things they cannot afford
And in the end they’re empty 
None of these can satisfy
The emptiness that lives within their soul

I have found that living
In this world is quite a test
Day to day the choices are a chore
But this one thing I realize
Can settle my heart down
All I need is more of my Lord

More of Him in the morning
Before the breaking dawn
When darkness rules the skies in all the land
The silence is so quiet
I can listen for His voice
I can hear Him whisper all of His sweet plans

More of Him at daybreak
When morning gilds the skies
Golden beauty lines the clouds above
The sun peeks out in splendor
Reminding everyone
That this day will be filled with God’s love

More of Him in the daytime
As I work to earn my way
He guides me step by step in my pursuits
I honor Him and praise Him
From the bottom of my heart
He keeps reminding me of His great truths

More of Him at sunset
When day is growing short
He paints His awesome clouds so brilliantly
I want Him to draw closer
As the light fades into dark
The picture in the clouds goes quietly

More of Him at nighttime
When I lay my head to rest
His spirit holds my heart so tenderly
Every day I’ve spend with Him
The more I come to know
That more of Him is all I really need

So Much More

What can I bring as an offering
To Jesus, who gave His all?
What is the proper expression
That would not be considered too small?
How can I even begin to show
The depth of my grateful heart?
There’s only one way I can think of
That’s to give Him my praise from the start.


I’ll open my lips and sing
The praises of Christ the King
He’s given me everything
And so much more


I’ll lift up my hands to His throne
Adoring the love He has shown
He made me His very own
And so much more


I’ll lift up my eyes to His face
His beauty I will embrace
He keeps me safe in this place
And so much more


One thing above all I must bring
My life as an offering
I must give Him everything
And so much more



He Took and He Gave

Leave a reply 
When He died upon the cross that day
His love came down through time
He gathered all my sins away 
And replaced them with His life
He took my unforgiveness 
My bitterness and grief
And showed me what forgiveness really means

For I was undeserving
Of the mercy He gave me
Now I try to understand my brothers needs
He took my doubts and fears
Of who I really was
And showed me His great plan to change my life

For I was wandering aimless 
Never touching anyone
Now I help the lost to change their lives
He took my insecurity 
Of what the future holds
And showed me there's a hope for all of time

For I was wasting all my time
On dead end pursuits
Now i can truly know that heaven will be mine
He took my lousy attitude
And the venom my mouth spewed 
And showed me that His joy could overcome

For I was only happy
When things would go my way
Now this joy always reminds me He has won
He took away my anger
At all the hurts Ihad endured
And showed me that to love is so much more

For I was always lonely 
And was closed off deep inside 
Now I try to make myself an open door
The change He made in my life
Didn't happen overnight
In fact He still has so much work to do
But one thing that I know
Is when I asked Him in my heart
My life became much better through and through

Start With Praise

Leave a reply 
If you want to have 
A great day
I suggest that you
Start with praise
God is worthy of
Every word you have to say

Maybe music is 
What you need
To get out of bed
On your feet 
Set your radio
So your heart awakes to beat

Because praise will 
Lift your spirit 
Worship will 
calm your worries 
Putting Him first 
Will bring you peace

So put your 
Whole heart in it
Don't let your world 
Or your duties
Crowd out the praise 
That puts your mind at ease

Singing Hallelujahs 
Glory to the King
Hallelujahs 
Lord of Everything

Glory, glory 
Savior of the world
Glory, glory
Giver of the word

Holy, holy
Perfect sacrifice
Holy, holy
Died to give me life

Loud Hosannas 
Rose again that day
Loud Hosannas 
Gave us power to pray

So many ways to praise Him
So many things He's done 
So don't forget to start each day
By singing of His love!

Words From My Savior

Leave a reply 
I open my eyes 
And what do I see
My Blessed Savior 
Looking at me

A smile on His face
His eyes open wide
He takes hold of my hand
And sits down at my side

“Hello Son” He says slowly
“I've so much to say
I want to guide you 
Through all of your days.

I want to tell you
Of my wondrous plans
Drawn up I'm heaven
They'll help you to stand

You see, trials will come
And sorrows you'll know
These things are a part
Of what makes you grow

There’ll even be times
You'll be sick or in pain
But what I allow
Is there for your gain

The problem that comes
And you don’t understand
Is that you think these things
Are not in my plan.

I implore you, my son
When you take time to.pray
That you also take time
To listen each day

So often you fill
Your prayers up with words
That you can't hear me speaking
My soft, gentle words

In my words are your comfort 
Your peace and your joy 
So.please don't miss out
Take time to enjoy

Then He got up and left
And the lesson was taken
When I.pray words don't matter
It's the listening that makes it

Restore The Land

Leave a reply 
The enemy gathers daily
Just before the dawn
To plan a way to take you down
They gather up the gossip 
Rumors and lies
And start a chain to spread it all around

Wording carefully crafted
And very neatly spun 
Their web of deception knows no shame 
The little minions gather
One by one they flee
To the human destination with their name

The saints of God gather
Just before the dawn
To plan a way to lift you to the King
They sound aloud their prayers
For healing and strength
To fight the battles this day's going to bring

Interceding Prayers
And praises to our God 
Their voices sing a song of victory
The angels gather round
To protect the saints of God
From any and all attacks of the enemy

With which of these groups
Do you work today?
The one lifting up?
Or the one breaking down?

Because as Christians we seem
To take both sides in stride
One minute we tear up
And the next we edify.

This ought not to be
In our lives as His church
We ought to be always
Lifting up those who hurt

Gossip and tale bearing
Have no place in the body
Putting others down for fun
Is an affront to our Lord

So come on church, rise up 
Let the good words win out
Let the body of Christ 
Rise up with a shout
Encourage each other
Pray for the sick

Help out the lonely
Make your faith stick
If all of us would
Take the time for this plan
The church would rise up
And restore this land



I Will

Leave a reply 
I will praise Him
No matter how I feel 
I will give Him glory 
Because His love is real

I will praise Him 
Every single day
Worship Him forever
Lift His Holy name

If I praise Him just for blessings
My praise will oft fall short 
Because some days just bring trials
It's a promise from His word

If I praise Him just for healing
There'll be times I'll not sing out
Because illness can be lingering
And it may just steal my shout

But when I praise Him just because 
He's the Lord of heaven and earth
There is nothing that can blind me
To all that He is worth

He is more than blessings 
More than healings, 
More than life.
He's the great creator
Of the earth
And all the skies.

So the next time your day isn't
What you planned for it to be
Just lift your hands and praise Him 
And His glory you shall see

And all your trials and troubles 
Will soon seem oh so small
The God of all creation
Is the master of them all.
