New Salvation Song

Leave a reply 
I can’t believe He loved me
Before I knew His Name
I can’t believe He’d save me
And take away my shame
I can’t believe He’d heal me
When I was sick or lame
But He did.  Yes, He did

I can’t believe He’d give me joy
To replace my sorry soul
I can’t believe the peace He left
When He made me whole
I can’t believe the hope inside
He shows me where I’ll go
But He did.  Yes, He did

He did it when He died for me
Upon the cross at Calvary
His sacrifice has set me free
From what my life had been

When I first heard His life’s story
I told myself how can this be
That anyone would die for me
And take away my sin

So I chose I would not believe
What the Bible said was free
That Jesus paid the price for me
And asked me to come in

Now I believe that all those things
I list above are what He brings
Into my life when I can sing
The new salvation song

So come with me and take my hand
I’ll take you to the promised land
And there you’ll find His loving plan
And you too will believe.

Only In You

Only in you am I free, Lord
From all the sin in my life
You paid the price for my freedom
You became my sacrifice

Only in you is there peace, Lord
For my whole mind and soul
Even in times of trouble
You make my heart feel whole

Only in you is there joy, Lord
Not just a happy, cool place
You bring a blessing within me
That nobody can displace

Only in you is there love, Lord
Not just the lust of this world
You showed us your compassion
And you taught us in your blessed Word

Only in you I reach heaven
You paved he way when you rose
Now I will live forever
Because it is you I chose

Christ Alone

Awaken, my soul, and sing 
To Jesus Christ my King
My voice will raise 
To sing His praise
Let loud hosannas ring
Arise, my spirit, arise 
Let my worship fill the skies 
I will proclaim 
His mighty name
Until my spirit dies
For He alone is worthy of the praises that I bring
He alone deserves to have my worship offering 
Only Jesus will receive the words that I will sing
Christ alone.  Yes Christ alone.
Come alive, my heart, come alive                                                                                    As I lift up my voice on high                                                                                                  l worship the King                                                                                                                 His praises I'll bring                                                                                                          As I offer to Him my life
Open my eyes to see your face                                                                                   Open my ears to hear                                                                                                  Open my heart to receive your sweet grace                                                                    So that I might be free to draw near
For He alone is worthy of the praises that I bring
He alone deserves to have my worship offering 
Only Jesus will receive the words that I will sing
Christ alone.  Yes Christ alone.

He Never Stops Providing

Leave a reply 
God has been so good to me
And I just don’t know why
Every day His mercy grows
His blessings make me cry

I cry for joy, not sorrow
At what He does for me
He never stops providing
The many things I need

Right now I need a healing
I know He’s bringing that
As slowly and most surely
My strength is coming back

I needed transportation
As of yet I cannot drive
A friend calls on the phone
And says he will provide

My angel of a wife is here
She watches over me
She makes sure my medicines
Are where they need to be

She does all of the housework
She cooks me food to eat
She is amazing, that’s for sure
She’s God’s great gift to me

Even in this trial
When some would turn from God
I run to Him and praise Him
Because He reigns above

He is my rock and fortress
My strength and hiding place
This cancer is defeated
As I lift my hands in praise

I worship you sweet Jesus
Because you are my Lord
And I will sing forever
It’s you that adore

My Everything

Beautiful Savior 
You are to me
Gave up your life 
To set me free
I’ll be with you
For eternity
All because of your love

Wonderful counselor
You’re always there
To hear every heartache
And every prayer
Giving me counsel
Helping me hear
Wisdom that comes from above

Gracious redeemer
You give me hope
When I was lost
You made heaven my home
Took all my past
And washed it like snow
You have a plan for my life

Miraculous Healer
Of all my disease
Your blood was shed
To bring me your peace
Whether my body
Or mind is not eased
Your touch will calm ever fear

Marvelous friend
You’ll always be
Walking along
As you care for my needs
Often you carry me
When I am weak
You are my hero and Lord

Jesus, Oh Jesus
You’re my everything
Lord of all Lords
King of all Kings
From now and forever 
Your praise I will sing
Since you came into my heart

Child of the King

Leave a reply 
Only through Christ the blessings flow
Only through Christ will I ever know
The promise from Heaven He bestows
To all who call on His name

He bought me at such a great price
By becoming my precious sacrifice
Paying the debt of sin in my life
So that now I am redeemed

His blood wiped away all my sin
Now God will never bring it up again
It’s just as if I’d never sinned
Justified by His blood

No longer will sickness rule in my life
Because I am healed by the horrible stripes
Now I claim victory when evils rise
Delivered from pain and disease

My mind is now free from doubt and fear
The thorns that he wore brought a covering here
Now I can now he will always be near
Peace and Joy flood my life today

He opened the way to heaven for me
He calls me His son, and He says I am free
He sets me apart because I believed
Sanctified through the cross

He’s there for me in good times or bad
Giving me guidance that I never had
His Holy Spirit shows me His plan
To prosper my life every day

From now on I’ll praise Him with all of my heart
I’ll sing out my worship, I’ll never depart
His precious love has set me apart
I am a child of the King

Be Quiet

Leave a reply 
I listened
Hoping to hear His voice
Quietly waiting for His direction

I heard the voices of this world
Roaring like a mighty wind
But God was not speaking through them

I heard the sound of battles in foreign lands
Shaking the earth and all its people
But God was not speaking through them

I heard loud preachers and evangelists
With fire in their voices they preached the word
But God’s direction for me was not in their words

So I settled down to sleep
Quiet and peaceful
And then I heard His voice
Still and small, giving me direction

Forever Yours

Leave a reply 
I bow to you Lord Jesus
You are my sovereign King
You gave your life to set me free
I owe you everything
I offer up my worship
I offer up my praise
I’ll follow you with all my heart
The rest of my days

You gave to me your mercy
And wiped away my past
Gone were all the wrongs I’d done 
Your love was mine at last
Your joy replaced my sadness
Your peace replaced my fears
I can’t repay the debt I owe
Forever I am yours

You offered me your grace
So amazing and so free
Once I asked you for forgiveness
You did so willingly
You gave to me a new life
Now heaven is my hope
I’m so in awe of what you’ve done
My heart is now your home

Oh the wondrous love of Jesus
Came to earth to die alone
He our Savior gave His own life
Now He claims us as His own
Full of blessings freely given
Has a plan to prosper me
How can I refuse to praise Him
When His child I’ll always be

Praise the mighty name of Jesus
All the earth will bow to Him
Lift His name in solemn worship
Give your life and offering
Praise the wondrous name of Jesus
Lift Him high in joyous song
He is worthy of our worship
Let’s rejoice all the day long

I’ll Turn

If I need deliv’rance
I’ll turn to the King

And it’s good

If I need a refuge
I’ll turn to His arms

To keep me from harm

If I need correction
I’ll turn to His love

His grace is enough

No matter the need
He meets every one
So I’ll trust in Him
And give Him my love
