My life was not always so joyful
Peace has just recently come
I could not find rest
Until I was blessed
By knowing that Jesus had won
Before I knew Him I was lonely
Forlorn in my sinful ways
His mercy found me
His grace set me free
Now I’ll have Him all of my days
Do you know that Jesus loves you
That He died on the cross for your sins
Ask Him today
To take yours away
Then peace and joy will reign within
In response to the daily prompt Forlorn
I can’t describe the feeling
Of growing close to God
I started at a distance
The way to him seemed broad
But as I traveled further
I found the narrow way
I found myself grow nearer
To Jesus every day
The closer I grew to him
It seemed less like a tunnel
Because the way got tighter
It felt more like a funnel
The light was there to greet me
When I reached His saving grace
Out I came and ready
My friends and foes to face
The journey trough that funnel
Prepared me for this day
So I can share the gospel
And lead folks in his way
In response to the daily prompt Funnel
He’s leading me
Through waters deep
Up mountains steep
His way I’ll keep
He’s leading me
He speaks to me
In still of night
With words of light
Keeps me upright
He speaks to me
Jesus Savior
My Messiah
Always by my side
Jesus, soon and coming King
In Him I abide
He’s here with me
When I am down
He makes no sound
But He’s around
He’s here with me
He comforts me
In times of grief
When joy seems brief
He gives relief
He comforts me
And when the road is hardest
When all hope seems to go
I know that He will see me through
Because He loves me so
Jesus Savior
My Messiah
Always by my side
Jesus, soon and coming King
In Him I abide
A short worship chorus the Lord gave me this morning:
I give you all the glory
I give you all the praise
For you alone are worthy
All of my days
I raise my hands to worship
I live to honor you
I give you all the glory
I give you all the praise
It’s time to praise Him
To Lift our hands up high
Let your voice be heard
Through all the earth
Its time to worship
Our hearts turned to the sky
His glory raised on high
For all to see
For He saved us by His love
He healed us with His blood
He freed us from the sin that ruled our lives
Delivered us from hell
His story we must tell
The world must know of His great sacrifice
It’s time to glorify
The one who gave His life
Our Savior Jesus Christ
Let’s shout and sing
It’s time to honor Him
The Lamb of God was slain
Our victory He gained
We owe Him everything
For He saved us by His love
He healed us with His blood
He freed us from the sin that ruled our lives
Delivered us from hell
His story we must tell
The world must know of His great sacrifice
Worship Him
Worship Him
Lift the name of Jesus Christ our Lord
Worship Him
Worship Him
Lift the name of Jesus Christ our Lord
For He saved us by His love
He healed us with His blood
He freed us from the sin that ruled our lives
Delivered us from hell
His story we must tell
The world must know of His great sacrifice
I cannot avoid the trials in life
I cannot avoid the fight
But I can rely
He’ll be by my side
Whenever the testing begins
I cannot avoid some sorrow
I cannot avoid some pain
But I know His plan
He will hold my hand
His joy will return again
Always there for me
Right by my side
Calming me
Keeping me
Making things right
Knowing He loves me
He’ll see me through
He’ll turn every test for my good
I cannot avoid some people
I cannot avoid their doubt
I can build them up
With kind words of love
I can help them figure life out
Perhaps they were brought to me
By His great plan
Perhaps I was put here for them
I must take the time
I must help them find
The God who can bring them through
Always there for me
Right by my side
Calming me
Keeping me
Making things right
Knowing He loves me
He’ll see me through
He’ll turn every test for my good
Without Him I am lost
With Him I am found
Without Him I am weak
With Him I am strong
Without Him I have doubt
With Him I have faith
Without Him I have fear
With Him I’m not afraid
Without Him sorrow looms
With Him joy abounds
Without Him turmoil stirs
With Him peace surrounds
Without Him I’m in sin
With Him mercy reigns
Without Him life is hard
With Him there is grace
Without Him I am poor
With Him I have no needs
Without Him darkness reigns
With Him light guides me
Without Him I am bound
With Him I am free
Without Him hell awaits
With Him heav’n for me
I see cherubim and seraphim
As they dance in sheer delight.
The elders bow before the Lamb
As he comes full in their sight.
The sound of anthems fills the skies
And the clouds bear majesty
As we sing around His throne
.
All hail the King
Who is sitting on the throne
All hail the one
Who came to earth below.
He chose to bleed and die
So that I could have new life.
Now the heavens sound his praise forevermore.
Angels gather ’round the throne of God
Their praises fill the heavens,
I approach the throne room and bow down
At the sight of Holy splendor.
I hear loud hosannas ring
And hallelujahs sing,
I can’t help but join the chorus with my praise
All hail the King
Who is sitting on the throne
All hail the one
Who came to earth below.
He chose to bleed and die
So that I could have new life.
Now the heavens sound his praise forevermore.
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah to the King.
Loud Hosannas in the highest
Is the chorus that we sing.
Never Above my Savior
Always below His feet
His love divine
Will always be mine
In Him I am complete
Never Above His mercy
Always below His gaze
His peace sublime
Mine for all time
When i am under His grace
Sweet is His love for me
Sweet mercy given so free
Love was nailed onto a tree
Raised high so all could see
Never above redemption
Always forgiveness I need
Sinner within
Finds comfort in Him
Daily I bow at His feet
Never above His calling
Always beholding to Him
Every new day
I bow down to pray
Asking His guidance within
Sweet is His love for me
Sweet mercy given so free
Love was nailed onto a tree
Raised high so all could see
Oh what a savior
Oh what a friend
Gave all He had
Right to the end
Sweet is His love for me
Sweet mercy given so free
Love was nailed onto a tree
Raised high so all could see
What a Night
A glorious night
Star shines bright
A guiding light
Shepherds praise
The newborn babe
Down in the hay
Messiah lay
Glory glory glory in the highest
Glory glory glory sang the chorus
Angels say
Don’t be afraid
Your Savior came
Christ is His name
You will find him
In Bethlehem
Wrapped up and warm
In Mary’s arms
Glory glory glory in the highest
Glory glory glory sang the chorus
Chorus of angels
Proclaim peace on earth
Good will to men
Because of His birth
Shepherds go see Him
Mary they tell
Of Angel praises
All will be well
Glory glory glory in the highest
Glory glory glory sang the chorus
Magical night
Holy and blessed
Jesus came down
God gave His best
All that will seek Him
Peace they will find
Salvation for all
True love is mine
Glory glory glory in the highest
Glory glory glory sang the chorus
The Psalmist
