His Glory Reigns

Leave a reply 
The stars
Brightly shine above 
Telling of His love
His glory reigns

The rain
Falling from the sky
Showing He provides 
His glory reigns

His glory is sustained
Throughout the universe 
His handiwork displays His majesty
And when I realize
He came to earth and died
To sacrifice His life for me

I can't help but praise Him
Praise His holy name
Lift my hands up high
And worship Christ the Lamb
I can't help but praise Him
For what He's done for me
He laid aside His glory
To come and rescue me

The light
Shining from the sun
Warming all the earth 
His glory reigns

The birds 
Singing in the trees
Worship melodies
His glory reigns

I can't help but praise Him
Praise His holy name
Lift my hands up high
And worship Christ the Lamb
I can't help but praise Him
For what He's done for me
He laid aside His glory
To come and rescue me

Blood Applied

Leave a reply 
I'm so glad the blood of Christ applies
To every pain and wound in life
I can walk in health each day revived
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

I'm so glad His love has rescued me
From a life of sin and misery
I do not deserve His great mercy
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Jesus is my Lord and King
He provided everything
On the cross He bled and died
Bore my sin and purchased life
I will lift His name in praise
Every hour of every day
Christ alone, to Him I owe
All my heart and soul

I'm so glad His peace will flood my soul
Every time a worry catches hold
He will calm my fears and make me bold
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

I'm so glad His joy is deep inside
Giving me a hope for future life
I will reign with him from heaven on high
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Jesus is my Lord and King
He provided everything 
On the cross He bled and died
Bore my sin and purchased life
I will lift His name in praise
Every hour of every day
Christ alone, to Him I owe
All my heart and soul

Only The Blood

Leave a reply 
What can wash away my sin?
The blood of the Lamb 
The blood of the Lamb
What can make me whole again?
Only the blood of the Lamb.

Precious is the blood He shed for me 
As He bled and died on Calvary
I'm so glad He paid the price for me
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain.

Rose again to give eternal life
I'm so glad He is my sacrifice 
Now I'll live with Him and never die
Worthy is the Lamb that was slain

This is all my hope and peace
The blood of the Lamb
The blood of the Lamb
This is all my righteousness 
Only by the blood of the Lamb

Now I know my future is secure 
In His love forever I'll endure 
Every trial and test He has a cure
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

He prepares a future just for me
Every plan is good and brings me peace 
I will reign with Him eternally 
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain

Anticipation

Leave a reply 
I anticipate His mercy when trials come my way
And I know that right behind is His sweet grace 
So when struggles overtake me and I'm up against a wall 
I can trust His purpose for this trial is good

He will never leave me in a place of deep despair
He'll always pick me up when I fall down
So when life is getting harder and it seems to not make sense 
There's no doubt in my mind He'll bring me out.

He's my refuge, He's my fortress
He's my strong and mighty tower
He's an ever present help in time of need
He's my Savior, He's my healer
He's my Lord forever
He's the one who gave me life eternally

So lift your head and shout His praise when trials come your way
And know He's working all things for your good
The God of all the heavens will never let you down
He'll see you calmly right through to the end

His plan for you is good 
His love for you is kind
His joy will fill your heart abundantly 
His peace will come and sooth you
His patience will abound 
His mercy and His grace will never fail

He's my refuge, He's my fortress
He's my strong and mighty tower
He's an ever present help in time of need
He's my Savior, He's my healer
He's my Lord forever
He's the one who gave me life eternally
I anticipate His mercy when trials come my way
And I know that right behind is His sweet grace

The Battle Belongs To The Lord

Leave a reply 
When I'm at my weakest you will give me strength
I just have to trust in you alone
And when the battle rages, this one thing I know
The battle belongs to the Lord

When my hope has vanished due to trials ahead
I just have to trust in you alone
And when life seems against me, this one thing I know
The battle belongs to the Lord

My eyes will be on you, Lord, to bring the victory
I will not trust myself to win the fight
For when I place my life into your loving hands
There is nothing you cannot make right

When the money's gone and the bills are on the table
I just have to trust in you alone
And when I find no answers this one thing I know
The battle belongs to the Lord

There is no situation you do not control
No outcome you cannot predict
So why should I be worried, or let my fears grow strong
When I can simply rest in your sweet love

My eyes will be on you, Lord, to bring the victory
I will not trust myself to win the fight
For when I place my life into your loving hands
There is nothing you cannot make right

Wouldn’t It Be Nice

Leave a reply 
Wouldn't it be nice if we had no trials
Wouldn't it be nice if we had no tears
Wouldn't it be nice if we had no struggles
Wouldn't it be nice if we had no fears

We would dance and sing without a worry
We would never need a friend to help
We would go through life without a problem 
We would have it easy every day

But when the storm came up
And the wind blew strong
And we found it was a dream
We'd fall off of that mountain
In sadness and despair
Finding we had no place
Of refuge or repair

God gave trials to fix our focus 
On the fact He'll help us through 
Every test and tear will grow us
Give us strength that can endure
So rejoice when life is trying 

Rejoice when troubles interfere
Realize these moments are a treasure
Meant to draw you closer to His ear
Your faith will be uplifted 
Your heart will be renewed 
His peace will be imparted
His joy overflow

For when your life is toughest
That's when God will shine
When your road seems hardest
His plan is good and kind 
He never will forsake you
Or leave you in despair
Just trust His precious mercy 
And lean upon His grace

Not All

Leave a reply 
People cry Lord, Lord, Lord 
Because their hungering to see
The grace and mercy I pour into their lives
They sit back and just adore
How the spirit makes them feel
Become content, and just keep that deep inside
They think they have all that there is
There's nothing more than can attain
Their happy in their hiding place
And do not seek for further gain
But Jesus calls. He truly calls
Not all who call me Lord
Will enter in these gates
Not all who call me Lord
Will gain eternal grace
You must give all that you have
To follow me with all your heart and soul.
I gave all for you, 
Will you give all to me
We live lives of moderation 
In a world of constant change
And we blur the lines of righteousness and holiness each day.
So that now the church is worldly 
And the worldly have no quid
And my church is like my nation as they've fallen far away
They think they have all that there is
There's nothing more than can attain
Their happy in their hiding place
And do not seek for further gain
But Jesus calls. He truly calls
Not all who call me Lord
Will enter in these gates
Not all who call me Lord
Will gain eternal grace
You must give all that you have
To follow me with all your heart and soul.
I gave all for you, 
Will you give all to me
You must hunger for my righteousness
Give all and pay the cost
Thirst for Holy Spirit Fire 
Full blown Pentacost 
Hold me in your heart each day
Flee the Devil's call
Run to me with all your live
Sacrifice your all.
And then you'll make it. You'll really make it
Not all who call me Lord
Will enter in these gates
Not all who call me Lord
Will gain eternal grace
You must give all that you have
To follow me with all your heart and soul.
I gave all for you, 
Will you give all to me
Are you ready to give your all?
Ready to heed the call?
Are you ready to suffer all?
Ready to often fall?
Are you ready to preach to all?
To answer my heart's call?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Not all who call me Lord
Will enter in these gates
Not all who call me Lord
Will gain eternal grace
You must give all that you have
To follow me with all your heart and soul.
I gave all for you, 
Will you give all to me


When I Call Your Name

Leave a reply 
I was quite weary
The outlook was dreary
I soon became teary
Then I called your name

My worries all vanished
My life no more tarnished
Your Spirit replenished
When I called your name

Thank you, dear Lord, for the sweet peace you give
That helps me to get through this life I must live
When I call on your name, I can trust you will give
A joy to my heart once again

When I was in sin
Had trouble within
My life was a spin
When I called your name

You hung on a tree
To bring mercy to me
And now I am free
Since I called on your name

Because you paid the price for my anguish and shame
As they beat up your body and mocked your sweet name
Because of your grace my life has been changed
Since you poured out your mercy on me

Thank you, dear Lord, for the sweet peace you give
That helps me to get through this life I must live
When I call on your name, I can trust you will give
A joy to my heart once again

Psalmist 23

Leave a reply 
The Lord is my Shepherd
He has my heart
And when times are tough
I shall not want

He makes me to lie down
In pastures green
And leads me beside
The still waters serene

He restores my soul
When I'm in a test
And He leads me
Into righteousness

Yea though I walk
Through shadows dark
I have no fear
For your my rock

Your rod and staff
Bring comfort sweet
For I know that you
Are there with me

You anoint my head
With sweet perfume
My life us full
With more of you

Surely goodness
Lights my path
And mercy always
Has my back

And I will dwell
Eternally
In heavens realm
A home for me.

I Got This

Leave a reply 
When my back's against the wall
And I'm feeling mighty small
I can hear my Savior call
I got this!

When my health is going down
And I'm feeling all alone
The Lord is on the phone
I got this

You're in my hand, so do not fear 
I have you right where you should be
Just remember in the times
That you feel you'll fall behind 
You just have to look to me 
I got this

When I seem so out of touch
And I feel that it's too much
There's the sound of His sweet voice
I got this

So I'll just praise Hm day by day 
Because I know He's here to stay
He carries me along the way
And then I hear Him say

You're in my hand, so do not fear 
I have you right where you should be
Just remember in the times
That you feel you'll fall behind 
You just have to look to me 
I got this
