Partakers of His Grace

Leave a reply 
We are partakers of His grace
Jesus Christ died to extend His grace to us
Grace that forgives sin
Grace that sets the captive free
Grace that heals the sick
Grace that opens blinded eyes
Grace that raises the dead
Grace that makes the lame to walk
Grace that Loves unconditionally

Are we extending that grace to others?
Are we forgiving those who sin against us?
Are we setting captives free by proclaiming victory in their lives?
I we praying for the sick in faith, so that they recover?
Are we opening eyes that are blinded to the truth?
Are we raising up those that are spiritually dead?
Are we helping the young Christians to walk?
Are we showing His love to everyone we meet?
Don’t just be a partaker in His grace - allow others to partake of yours!

He Died There For You

Leave a reply 
In the midst of my troubles when all seems so lost
I turn my eyes upward to that man on the cross
He suffered in anguish pain ripped His soul
Despised and rejected the scars took their toll

In one last, deep breath "It is finished" He said
And He gave up His life and was taken for dead
"What was finished" you ask as you look on that tree
"Did the death of one man make a difference to me"

The plan of salvation that God had begun
In the beginning had now been won 
For Jesus took all of our sin on that cross
He gave up His life at a terrible cost

The perfect lamb slain for all of our sin
So that we might find freedom deep down within
Have you knelt at His cross and accepted this truth?
So precious and gracious - he died there for you.

Just to sit in His arms
Just to walk by His side
Just to be in His thoughts
Just to hear His sweet voice

The world may be swirling around me
And nothing be going my way
But in His presence I will linger
Every single day

Content
Trouble may be at my doorstep
And the future may seem so grim
But I will ever have hope
Because I walk with Him

Content
When darkness and sorrow surround me
And my life is falling apart
It's His arms that I will run to
It's to Him I will give my heart

Content
There is not a moment that passes
That I can not trust in Him
For He watches me like a good Father 
And I can rest in Him

Content
So take no thought for tomorrow
And do not dwell in the past
In everything life can throw at you
Rest in His arms

Go To Church

Leave a reply 
We gather together
For strength
For fellowship
For encouragement
For worship
For each other
If I go to church only for myself
Only for my edification
Only because I enjoy it
Only because it's the right thing to do
I go for the wrong reason
If I go to church just to worship God
Just to hear His word
Just to sense His presence
Just to feel His touch
I go for the wrong reason
But If I go to church for others
To give an encouraging word
To shake a hand or hug a neck
To uplift and pray for my fellow saints
I go for the right reason
We gather together
Not for ourselves
But for each other
Not just to be in God's presence
But to be in each other’s presence
Not to be edified
But to edify others
Gather together today
And be a blessing!

You Came Down

Leave a reply 
You ruled in the heavens 
As King of Kings
You came down to earth 
Without anything
You died on the cross 
Salvation to bring
You went to the tomb 
And buried my sin

Lord you are worthy
Worthy of praise.  
Praise for all you have done
Lord you are worthy
Worthy of praise.  
Praise for all you have done

You opened the grave 
And came out alive
You rose up to heaven 
And gave us eternal life
You came down to lift me up
Up from the depths of sin
Up to new life within.   
For me you came down

You came down to lift me up 
Out of the miry clay
Into your arms to stay.  
For me you came down

Trust Your Grace

Leave a reply 
When the day seems long and dreary
And I'm tired of running the race 
I can turn my eyes to you
And trust your grace

When my aches and pains are many
And my life seems out of place 
I can set my mind on you
And trust your grace

When the bills are piling higher 
And the debt will not erase 
I can rest my heart in you
And trust your grace

When it seems that I am all alone
And I can't get any praise
I can turn my life to you
And trust your grace

No matter what 
No matter where
No matter how
No matter why
No matter when
I can trust your grace
Forever

Lord, Hear My Cry

Leave a reply 
Softly I come to you, Lord, hear my plea
I bow before you Lord, down on my knees
I seek your wisdom for mine is so weak 
Lord, hear my cry.  Lord, hear my cry

Softly you whisper and I hear your voice
Open my heart, Lord that I can rejoice
To follow you closely is always my choice
Lord, hear my cry.  Lord, hear my cry

I cry for mercy 
I cry for grace
I cry for healing
I cry for faith
I cry for deliverance
I cry for love
I cry for you, Lord, for you are enough 

Come Holy Spirit, fill me today
Come help me walk in God's will today
Help me to hear your voice, I humbly pray
Lord, hear my cry.  Lord, hear my cry

I cry out for you.  
I cry out for you.  
I cry out for you, Lord Jesus
