Lord of My Heart

Leave a reply
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
You rescued me
Out of the dark
You gave your life
So that I could be free
When you died sinless
On Calvary’s tree
Bought my salvation
A debt that I owed
Your love has paid
So I could have hope
Rose from the grave
Up to heavens door
Where I will dwell
Forever more
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
I know that you
Will never depart
You promised me
You’d stay by my side
From this very day
‘Til the day that I die
Then when I rise
To my heavenly home
I’ll spend eternity
Never alone
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my Heart
I’ll worship you
Until I depart
Then when I land
On my mansion above
I’ll praise you always
For your tender love

Hold Me Fast

Leave a reply

I’m holding onto Jesus

And He’s holding onto me

And I’m never going to let Him go

Because I know He’ll always

Bring out the best in me

And I know He’ll always love me so

 

Sometimes I can get lazy

My path can go astray

I find myself a long way from His side

But every time I wander

He helps me find my way

And He’s still there with arms held open wide

 

Sometimes my faith can waiver

And my fear can rise up strong

And the doubt inside can cause me some alarm

But every time I stumble

He comes right to my aid

And gathers me into His loving arms

 

But when I am the strongest

And my faith is waxing strong

There’s nothing like His presence in my life

I sing about His glory

I praise Him endlessly

And I worship Him for Hs great sacrifice

 

His promises are true

His love will never fail

His faith in me grows stronger every day

So I will hold on fast

To the love that He bestows

And He will hold me fast all the way

Near To You

Leave a reply
I want to walk with you
For miles and miles
Everyday, Lord
To be in your presence
And feel your sweet touch
I want to stay with you
Step by step
Never leave your side
Constantly abide
In your love
Everyday
I want to talk with you
For hours and hours
Everyday, Lord
To soak in your wisdom
And learn how to love
I want to hear your voice
Word by word
Never close my ears
Listen all the years
To your love
Everyday
Being with you
And hearing your voice
Is my hearts desire
My only choice
Every minute
I spend with you
Just draws me closer
To your side
Near to you
Near to you
Knowing your touch
Hearing your voice
Near to you
By your side
That’s where I’ll abide.

Thank You

Leave a reply
How can I thank you?
What can I say?
For all that you’ve done
For me this day?
What words can offer
How I love you?
For all the things
You say and do?
You rise up the sun
To brighten the day
You give me my breath
And show me thy way
You carry me through
The storms in my life
You hold me closely
In my hardest times
You give me joy
To cast fear aside
Your peace is a comfort
When trials arise.
There’s so many ways
You make this life grand
I just want to stay
In your loving plan
Now I say thank you
Thank you so much
I cannot thank you enough
Thank you my Savior
Thank you my Lord
Thank you for all of your love.

In My Savior’s Arms

All the way my Savior leads me

All the way, He walks beside

I can trust His tender mercy

In His love, I will abide

When my trials overtake me

He will come and be my guide

For I knew He’s always with me

In His bosom I survive

 

Safe in His peace from above

Warmed by the light of His love

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

 

All the way, He is my Shepheard

Daily taking care of me

I don’t have to fret or worry

When I‘m resting at His feet

I can know His joy through struggles

I can have His lasting peace

All I need is to stay near Him

He will always comfort me.

 

Long may He reign in my heart

He is my strength, my all

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

 

All the way, He leads me gently

Let me give myself away

And I’ll know His lasting presence

As He draws me close each day

I don’t need another anchor

He is all my hope and stay

For I know He will protect me

He is my resting place

 

Safe in His peace from above

Warmed by the light of His love

Comfort He gives

As long as I live

Here in my Saviors arms

Make a Difference

Leave a reply

Let your light shine, Lord, shine on me.

Hold it before me so I can see

All the hurt in this world that I am in

So I can make a difference

 

Help me see sickness, and pray for health

Help me see poverty, and pray for wealth

Help me see suffering, and pray for peace

Help me see bandage, and beg release.

 

But more than just praying is what they need

Lord, help me put in just one little seed

Lord, give me the words that I need to say

To turn their lives to your sweet ways.

 

Help me to bind up the wounded soul

Help me give comfort to those that mourn

Help me give joy to the sad and weak

Help me show peace in each word speak

 

Then when they ask me just why I care

It gives me a chance that I can share

How the love of Jesus has changed my life

And how He make them feel more alive

 

Let your light shine, Lord, shine on me.

Hold it before me so I can see

All of the hurt in this world I’m in

So I can make a difference

My Father

Leave a reply
I have a Father
Who loves me so much
He blesses me all of my days
Daily He listens
To hear every prayer
And leads me in all if His ways
When I am weary
I ask Him for strength
And He sends the spirit of life
When I am sick
I pray He will heal
And He gives me patience to fight
Oh, what a wonderful Father
Mercy and Grace are His ways
I know He will love me forever
So I’ll worship Him all of my dayslov
When I have trouble
I ask Him for help
And He sends me peace in the storm
When I am lonely
I call out His name
And He holds me safe in His arms
Oh, what a wonderful Father
Mercy and Grace are His ways
I know He will love me forever
So I’ll worship Him all of my days
He gave His own Son
To die on a cross
So eternal life would be mine
My sin is erased
My shame is all gone
I’ll now be with Him for all time
Oh, what a wonderful Father
Mercy and Grace are His ways
I know He will love me forever
So I’ll worship Him all of my days

With You, Lord

Leave a reply
I want to be with you, Lord
To dance around your throne
To praise your name forever
To make heaven my home
I want to be with you, Lord
To walk the streets of gold
To see those gone before me
To no more getting old
Yes, heaven will be wonderful
A lovely place to stay
But I won’t wait for heaven
To walk with you each day
Because you said you’re with me
And will never leave my side
I choose to walk with you, Lord
While I on earth abide
I am always with you, Lord
To weather every storm
To see me through my trials
To keep me from all harm
I am always with you, Lord
To guide me day by day
To teach me by your Spirit
To walk in all your ways
Your promises are true Lord
And if I walk thus way
When I come to deaths door
I’ll pass through heavens gates
So if you want a heav’nly home
Then make this your daily chore
Walk with Jesus here on earth
And heaven will be yours.

Closer

Leave a reply
Each passing moment
Brings me closer to you
Whether through trial
Or whether I’m blue
Because every time
I am feeling my worst
Your always there
To quench every thirst
Each passing moment
Brings more of your grace
When I can’t feel your touch
When I can’t see your face
I know that your near me
Only by faith
And that while I am waiting
Every tear you’ll erase.
Closer to you through the weakness in me
Closer to you when I bow on my knees
Closer to you when I can’t find my way
Lord draw me closer to you every day
Each passing moment
Brings mercies untold
You spare me from things
That would damage my soul
And fill me with hope
That will soon overflow
Because great is your love
For me.
Closer to you when I feel far away
Closer to you when I can’t stop and pray
Closer to you when my path is obscured
Lord draw me closer, please help me see you
Only through trials
When my faith is tried
Will you draw my closer
To your loving side
So Lord let the trials
Of life come way
So I may draw closer
To you every day.
