Longing

I long for the sound of His voice
Teaching me how to rejoice
He whispers so clear
In my spiritual ear
Hoping I'll make the right choice

I long for the feel touch of His hand
Confirming the path of His plan
As he gently leads
And quietly pleads
He urges me to understand

He loves me, more than I can know
He loves me, and promises to show
His grace is complete
As I sit at His feet
Oh, How He loves me so

I long to see His face
To feel His warm embrace
He's always right there
To hear every prayer
He leads me inside heavens gates

I long to know His love
Streaming down from above
He dwells deep inside
In my heart he abides
His spirit descends like a dove

He loves me, more than I can know
He loves me, and promises to show
His grace is complete
As I sit at His feet
Oh, How He loves me so

I shout Hallelujah to His name
Glorious Hallelujahs to His name
His praises I sing
My worship I bring
My voice cries blessed be His name
My voice cries blessed be His name

How I Love You

Lord, you are more beautiful than rainbows in the sky
Lord, you are more wonderful than eagles as they fly
Lord you are magnificent in everything you do
Jesus, how I love you

Lord, you are more glorious than roses as they bloom
Lord, you are more marvelous then either sun or moon
Lord, you are the only one who walks with me each day
Jesus, how I love you

You are so holy, so awesome in my life
You are so holy, I lift your name on high
You're grace and mercy lead me through the day
Jesus,. how I love you

Lord, you are so merciful, you gave your life for me
Lord, you are so gracious, your blood has ransomed me
Lord your love is so complete it covers all my sin
Jesus, how I love you

I lift my voice to sing in thankful praise
I lift my heart and worship your sweet name
I life my eyes, I long to see your face
Jesus, how I love you

You are so holy, so awesome in my life
You are so holy, I lift your name on high
You're grace and mercy lead me through the day
Jesus, how I love you

My Part

I often sit and wonder,
In my quiet little place –
If this love will last forever,
And a smile comes on my face.

Again, this is so different –
The feelings are immense,
My first life has been spent
Without question of expense.

I can feel his love so deeply
In my heart throughout the day,
And I know that I will always be
Walking in his Holy way.

And I truly thank you Lord of all
For the love you bring within;
I have heard your true and Holy call,
I will never turn again.

You fill my life with joy
In a world where I was lost,
I no longer feel that I’m a boy –
I’m a man; I’ve paid the cost.

Now Jesus lives within me,
And a love does fill my heart
That I wish to share with all of you
To fulfill my rightful part.

Jesus Christ Forevermore

My heart is in your hand Lord
My feet at your command
Held me understand
Your will and your plan

My spirit longs for you
In everything I do
Let me life be true
As I worship you

Sing hosanna in the highest
Sing hosanna to the Lord
With your whole heart lift His praises
Jesus Christ forevermore

My mind and soul seek mercy
Ever since you found me
I am far from worthy
Of your grace and mercy

Help me, Lord, please help me
Help me find my way
Through this earthly vessel
To your kingdom’s gates

I can’t do it by myself
I need help every day
I can always count on your
To extend your grace

Sing hosanna in the highest
Sing hosanna to the Lord
With your whole heart lift His praises
Jesus Christ forevermore

Beside Me

 Today I can say how good it is
 To sleep in my house 
 To lay in my bed
 To rest in my living room
 With the one I love beside me
 It was lonely when we were apart
 It was hard to sleep
 It was uncomfortable to rest 
 It was unusual in its waiting
 With one beside me now and then
 Our Father in heaven gave his son
 To be born in a Manger
 To die on a cross
 To forgive our sins and give us life
 So we could be with Him eternally
 He cries to us 
 Come, rest in my peace
 Come, lay in my arms
 Come, be with me forever
 For you are the one I love
 If you don't know Jesus
 As your Lord and Savior
 Why not ask Him today to forgive you
 Ask Him into your heart
 And He will save your soul
 And you will be with Him
 Forever. 

How Gracious he Is To Me

 His mercy and grace wash over me
 Like a cleansing stream from Calvary
 His stripes and His blood have set me free
 How gracious He is to me
  
 He heals and delivers from every sin
 Sends His Holy Spirit to dwell within
 What a glorious friend I have in Him
 How gracious He is to me
  
 CHORUS
 Oh, how I love Him
 Oh, how I need Him
 Oh, how I love Him so
 Jesus my Savior
 Gracious redeemer
 He is the answer to all of my question
 How gracious He is to me
 How gracious He is to me
  
 He sets my feet on higher ground
 He gives me joy that always abounds
 I am so glad that I have found
 How gracious He is to me
  
 CHORUS
 
 BRIDGE
 He picks me up when I fall
 He holds my hand and leads me
 He never leaves me alone
 He is always near
 He is always near
  
 CHORUS 

How He Loves Me So

 I long for the sound of His voice
 Teaching me how to rejoice
 He whispers so clear
 In my spiritual ear
 Hoping I'll make the right choice
  
 I long for the touch of His hand
 Confirming the path of His plan
 As he gently leads
 And quietly pleads
 He urges me to understand
  
 He loves me, more than I can know
 He loves me, and promises to show
 His grace is complete
 As I sit at His feet
 Oh, How He loves me so
  
 I long to see His face
 To feel His warm embrace
 He's always right there
 To hear every prayer
 He leads me inside heavens gates
  
 I long to know His love
 Streaming down from above
 He dwells deep inside
 In my heart he abides
 His spirit descends like a dove
  
 He loves me, more than I can know
 He loves me, and promises to show
 His grace is complete
 As I sit at His feet
 Oh, How He loves me so
  
 I shout Hallelujah to His name
 Glorious Hallelujahs to His name
 His praises I sing
 My worship I bring
 My voice cries blessed be His name
 My voice cries blessed be His name
   

Every Moment

 Making time
 Losing time
 Forgetting the time
 We all have the same amount
 Ever minute, every day, every year
 It's not a matter of how much time
 But how we use the time
 It is a gift to us
 A precious gift
 From God
 Do I squander it?
 Do I plan it?
 Do I ignore it?
 Do I watch it?
 Do I use it to the fullest,
 Or squander it away?
 God's gifts are meant to be cherished
 Every moment should be cherished
 Every moment accounted for
 Every moment be made special
 Every moment given back to Him.
 I will lift my praise every moment
 I will lift my prayers every moment
 I will lift His name every moment
 I will honor Him every moment
 How will you use your time today?
