It’s a song for the ages
Sung in heaven above
The angels sing it boldly
Telling of God’s love
The melody is beautiful
The chorus fills the skies
Cherubim and seraphim
Sing it as they fly
His love is so amazing
His love is so divine
It reaches down from heaven
And touches you and I
In response to the daily prompt Melody
How do I love you, Lord?
Let me try and count the ways
There are so many things I thank you for
And I give you all my praise
I love you as the creator
You gave us all that we see
You provided a world where we can live
Such a marvelous place to be
I love you as my provider
I have no need that you can meet
You watch out for me and care for me
Every day your grace is so sweet
I love you for you are my healer
When I’m hurt I can trust in you
I never should doubt or fear the result
For I know you will bring me through
I love you for all of the blessings
That flow out to me so many ways
I cannot begin to count all the times
You have touched me day to day
I love you for you are my Savior
You shed your blood to set me free
And you rose again to give eternal life
I’m in awe of your great mercy
There are so many ways I love you
For all the things that you’ve done
My praise will continue for all of my days
Because my victory you’ve won
But above all these things I love you
Just because of who you are
You are Lord of all Lords forever
I am constantly in awe
And I will lift my praises
No matter what life brings
Because you are seated in heaven
And are crowned King of all Kings
Who knows where the waves take form and start out?
Who knows where they travel, or when they will stop?
Who knows how high or how far they will go?
Only the God I serve
Who knows where the clouds have taken their shape?
Of how big they’ll get, or when dissipate?
Who guilds them at morn and paints them at night?
Only the God I serve
Our God is amazing, He knows everything
From the depths of all nature to what makes birds sing
His wisdom is more than imaginable
And He loves me just as I am.
Who placed the stars and calls them by name?
Who has arranged them to show us His grace?
Who knows how for their light will stay bright?
Only the God I serve
Our God is incredible. There’s no one like Him
He sits in the on His throne and controls everything
Yet He still takes the time to hear when I pray
And He loves me just as I am.
So I will lift up His praise to the sky
I’ll shout from the rooftops as others pass by
My God is the one who can transform your lives
And He loves you just as you are.
Lions and tigers and bears oh my
Roar out their power as we pass by
Fierce is the word that we use to describe
Their countenance on this earth
But fiercer still is the wrath of God
I don’t want to be in His anger caught
And there’s only one way to avoid the onslaught
That will come to those who don’t believe
Jesus, the way the truth, the life
You need to accept His sacrifice
He is the great escape for your life
Trust Jesus, and you will be saved.
In response to the Daily Prompt Fierce
I want to be closer. Closer to your side
I want to be nearer. Never let me hide
I want to be purer. As I walk through life
I want to be yours. In you I will abide
There is never a time you will leave my side
But I may wander away
When I do I can rest assured you abide
In my heart each and every day
You promised you’ll never leave or forsake me
Even if I should mess up
When I find myself far from where I should be
You come and fill my cup
When I cannot hide from the trials I face
I just want to walk away
But you come and guide me to a peaceful place
Where I can bow and pray
These are the reasons I trust in you
Every promise I know is true
You will be with me my whole life through
Jesus, my Lord
I heard God Calling
In a voice sweet and low
He said “Child, you are ready
It’s time that you go
You’ve studied and prayed
That the harvest would come
So go out today
And touch everyone.
Hope for despair
Joy for their sorrow
Peace in the storms
Through all their tomorrows
Deliver the captive
Give sight to the blind
Bind up the demons
And cast them aside
Cleansing for lepers
Words for the dumb
Strength for their weakness
Heal everyone
Faith for the doubters
Forgive all their sin
Calm down their minds
Bring solace within
On top of all that
Show mercy each day
Give them my love
Teach them my ways
And treat everyone
With unrestrained grace
Never be harsh
Fill them with praise
And when you have done
All the things I have said
Then people will listen
And souls will be saved”
Oh, the great, great love of Jesus
Sent to us from high above
Left His royal throne in heaven
Just to show us His great love
Oh the wondrous love of Jesus
Child in a manger lay
Shepherds came and bowed before Him
Nestled in the stables’ hay
What love, what unspeakable love
Jesus has for me
What love, what amazing love
That He would die for me
Oh, amazing love of Jesus
Walked this earth for three short years
Healing, teaching touching lives
All to show us how God cares
Oh, the selfless love of Jesus
Gave His body up for me
Beaten, bruised and crucified
Took my sin and set me free
What love, what unspeakable love
Jesus has for me
What love, what amazing love
That He would die for me
Oh, eternal love of Jesus
Buried in a borrowed tomb
Rose again and now He’s living
Giving me a life with Him
His love is eternal
His love is amazing
His love is compassionate
Meets my every need
His love is for everyone
He waits for you to ask Him
Lord please come into my heart
Make me new today
What love, what unspeakable love
Jesus has for me
What love, what amazing love
That He would die for me
I remember when I found the love of Jesus
He came and washed my sins away
And ever since that day
I have found a way
To give Him all the praise that I can give
His mercy covers me when I am falling
His grace is so amazing and so free
I took Him as my Lord
It’s Him who I adore
So let’s all lift our praise in one accord
Worthy is the Lord, worthy is the Lord
Worthy is the Lord our God
Faithful to the end
He’s our blessed friend
Worthy is the Lord our God
Holy is the Lord, Holy is the Lord
Holy is the Lord our God
His majesty supreme
So wonderful to me
Holy is the Lord our God
Each day I lift my praise to heaven
I just can’t worship Him enough
I’ll praise all may days
With all my words of praise
I’ll shout it from the mountaintop
Worthy is the Lord, worthy is the Lord
Worthy is the Lord our God
Faithful to the end
He’s our blessed friend
Worthy is the Lord our God
Jesus is the Lord, Jesus is the Lord
Jesus is He Lord our God
He’s our eternal friend
Forever and amen
Jesus is the Lord our God
When I open my eyes every morning
I rejoice that I’m still alive
And I give praise to Jesus my Savior
Who has saved me and gave me new life
When I rise from my bed every morning
I feel that I am so blessed
That I still have the strength to be mobile
And to rise up after my rest
When I eat that good meal in the morning
I praise God for all He gives
For He’s the provider of all I have
And His love is why I exist
All through the day I praise Him
I worship His arms which embrace
For He opens my eyes to see Him
And He gives His amazing grace
In response to the daily prompt Eye
I sing my songs to Jesus. Love songs just for Him
He purchased my salvation, so to Him my praise I bring
Songs of joy and gladness are in my heart today
He leads me by His truth and daily lights my way
I love the book of hymns that were written long ago
Amazing Grace, He’s Alive, It is Well With My Soul
I also like the new music so abundant out today
There’s a rising up in worship that I hope won’t go away
But more than anything I love the songs he gives to me
In middle of the night He opens up my eyes to sing
I sit down very calmly and he gives me every word
Then I put the rhythm to it, and His story is now heard
I’ll give you some examples of the words to these new songs
The melody you’ll have to guess, as a video I don’t have
I hope these words will touch your lives as they have touched mine
If nothing else I hope your blessed by the nice poetic rhyme
Song #1 I Want to Thank You Lord
I want to thank you, Lord, for your mercy in my life
I want to thank you Lord, for your great sacrifice
You have given me your all
Help me give my all to you
I want to thank you, Lord (This part is sung three times)
You deserve the highest praise
You deserve the highest praise
You deserve the highest praise
My heart can give (This part is sung twice, then close with the first part)
Song #2 We Lift You Up
(softly and soulfully)
As we come into your presence
And we turn our hearts to you
We out aside our care if earthly things
We have come to seek your kingdom
And we long for righteousness
Precious Lord, we want to glorify your name
We lift you up, we lift you up
We lift you up, Oh Lord, and praise your holy name
We lift you up, we lift you up
Come and draw us near to you, we lift you up (back to top first time through)
(with much enthusiasm)
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah to the Lord
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah to the Lord (Back to we lift you up, with gusto!)
There’s a few examples of the songs He’s given me
There are hundreds more He’s blessed me with
I hope He never stops waking me in dead of night
To share with me these love songs I can give
The Psalmist
