Day Of Wonder

Leave a reply 
I’ve been sitting here this morning
Wondering what to do
Searching for the words
To worship you
It’s another day of wonder
Another day of grace
And I desire to look 
Upon your face
So I’ll sing Holy, Holy
Holy is your name
I sing Glory, Glory
Lift your name in praise
I’ll sing Worthy, Worthy
Worthy are you Lord
I’ll sing Jesus, Jesus
It’s you that I adore
For you bring love into my heart
Every day
You bring joy into my soul
All the way
You bring peace into my mind
As I pray
I love you Lord. I love you Lord
So I’ll sing Holy, Holy
Holy is your name
I sing Glory, Glory
Lift your name in praise
I’ll sing Worthy, Worthy
Worthy are you Lord
I’ll sing Jesus, Jesus
It’s you that I adore




Heal Our Land

Leave a reply 
I sit amidst the chaos
Of a lost and dying world
And I wonder when they’ll come to realize
That the softening of morals
And the sin they now condone
Is truly a reproach in God’s eyes
But I also wonder when the church
Will rise up and start to pray
That this world will turn away from all their sin
For it is our duty and our task
To know what the Bible says
And to pray from very deep down within
I must first humble myself
And know that I am no better
We are all the same in the sight of God
And if I lift my neighbor
As I would like to be lifted
My prayers will soon be heard in heaven above
And once I humble myself I pray
For the lost soul deep within
Everyone who has followed the devils’ lies
I do not judge nor condemn
But pray the light will shine through
And open the sinner’s eyes
Then I seek God’s grace
To know how to pray
For the Holy Spirit will give me the words
I must go to Him
To pray righteously
And not have my own thoughts be heard
And last but not least
I put my sin aside
If God is to answer my prayer
For If I regard 
Sin in my heart
The Lord will not hear what I say
After all this 
His promise is true
He says He’ll forgive our sin
And then, only then
Will our country revive
For He says He will heal our land

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!

The Power of Prayer

Leave a reply 
If you want to touch God
Each and every day
Then all you have to do is pray
If you want to reach Jesus
Each and every day
Then all you have to do is pray

It’s really not too difficult
Or hard to comprehend
Just talk to Him like any other friend
He’s always got an ear
Open to your heartfelt words
He will listen close to every prayer you send

Prayer is the answer
To every earthly need
It’s the way to move the heavens and the earth
Prayer is the weapon
God has given us to use
Whenever there’s a need that we observe

Prayer heals the sick
Prayer frees the captive
Prayer casts out demons
Prayer brings the victory 
Prayer grows our faith
Prayer builds the church

More powerful than lightning
More effective than attack
Prayer stops the enemy cold
So easy to accomplish
So successful to employ
Prayer is a weapon that is bold

Let’s band together church
And really make a difference
Let’s take back this world the devil stole away
Just find a quiet place
And take a little time
To sit before the Lord and pray

Who I Am Now

Leave a reply 
I once was a sinner 
Deep in shame
I did not even
Like my name
I wandered aimlessly 
Through my life 
Not caring if
I lived or died
Faith was not known 
Hope was a dream
Love was so shallow
My heart just screamed
But then some words
A friend spoke to me
Led me to Jesus 
And He saved me
Now I'm a sinner
Saved by grace
Hope is alive 
I will see His face
Faith in my Savior
Accepts His love
Mercy from heaven
Grace from above
Who I am Now
Is saved by His grace
Washed in His blood 
Awed by His face
Filled with His Spirit
Calmed by His peace
Thrilled by His joy
Faith is released
Who I am now
Is healed by His stripes
Delivered from death
Filled with new life
Bathed in His promise
Eternally His
Headed to heaven
Forever with Him
I will forever
At His feet bow
For He is the Lord 
Of who I am now

The Present

Leave a reply 
Today is the day
Not tomorrow 
Not yesterday 
Today is the day
To praise the Lord 

Today is the day
Not next week
Not last week
Today is the day 
To worship Him

He is the one
Who gives us the present
He is the one
Who gives breath every day 
He is the one
Who gives rythm to heart beats 
Only my God 
Can show me the way 

Today is a present 
All wrapped up in hope
His peace calms my spirit
His joy overflows

This wonderful present
Is mine for the asking 
It comes every moment
From Jesus my King

He is the one
That showers with mercy
He is the one
Whose love reigns divine
He is the one
Who gives grace amazing
Only my God 
Will always be mine

Today is the day 
Today is the present 
Today is my gift
From Jesus my Lord
Today I will praise Him
Today I will worship 
Today is my chance
To give thanks to my Lord.

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


Good Morning

Leave a reply 
Monday morning, waking up
I rise from off my bed
And realize quite instantly
That I am not dead
So I shake my head real slowly
From side to side it flows
And a smile comes upon my face
It's time to praise the Lord

I praise Him that He gives me breath
To wake me up this day
I praise Him that my eyes still work
To see me on my way
I praise Him that I hear the sounds
That filter through my room
I praise Him that He's there with me
That I am not alone

I praise Him that my arms and hands
Still have the strength to hold
I praise Him that my legs will work
To take me where untold
I praise Him that I feel His love
Still shining from above
I praise Him that His spirit
Still comes in like a dove

And now, 5 minutes in the day
I know His wondrous grace
Has kept me through the night again
So I can praise His name




Live By Faith

Leave a reply


How else can I live, Lord, but by faith in you and your never failing love for me?  
How else can I overcome the calamities that befall me because of my own sinfulness and lack of wisdom?
How else can I walk through each day without fear the enemy will utterly consume me?How else can I know there’s truly hope for tomorrow, and my life is not doomed to end in destruction?
How else can I know my breath will still be with me in the morning, and my sight in the evening?


It is faith that upholds me.
It is faith that enables me to stand in the midst of the darkness of this world.
It is faith that helps me understand that this life is not fair, but you are always just.
It is faith that shows me the trials in my life are only present to perfect me in your ways.
It is faith that keeps me walking toward the prize of the high calling of God, not knowing the path I will have to tread.
It is faith that heals me, faith that delivers me, faith that upholds me, and faith that encourages me.

This faith does not come from the world around me that is so untrustworthy.
This faith does not come from the famous, or the wealthy, or the powerful.
This faith is not placed on the things or people of this world.
This faith is not a condition of my works, or of my words.
This faith is not placed in the stars above, or the moon, or the natural things of this world.

My faith is in the Lord Jesus Christ, His Father in Heaven, and His Spirit who dwells within.
My faith is in the creator of all things, and the upholder of the earth and all the heavens My faith is in the one who calls the stars by name, and numbers the hair on my head. My faith is in the one who makes nations rise and kings fall.
My faith is in God.

He will sustain me.
He will uphold me.
He will encourage me.
He will heal me.
He will deliver me.
He will direct my steps.
He will never leave or forsake me.
He will keep me from harm.
He will make all things work for my good
That is why I can live by faith, walk by faith, talk in faith, and trust in God.
