He’s Calling Out

Leave a reply 
One day every knee will bow
And every tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord of all
In heaven and in earth

One day everyone will gather
‘Round the throne of God
Some will live eternally
Some will be cast out

He’s calling out today
For all to find His way
So why not bow and pray
To Jesus Christ today

This day you can make the choice
That one day will decide
Whether you will live eternally
Or be the one cast out

This day make the choice for Jesus
He’s the only way
Take Him as your Lord and Savior
Call on Him today

He will take your sins away
Wash them white as snow
He will give you peace and joy
That you have never known

He will grant deliverance
From all that holds you down
He will replace all your fear
With faith that you can grow

He will give you hope that lasts
For all eternity
His love will encompass you
And let’s you know you’re his

He’s calling out today
For all to find His way
So why not bow and pray
To Jesus Christ today

It Is Worth It ALL

I could have had riches
I could have had fame
I could have had power and a praiseworthy name
I could have had all that this world could give
Then I chose Jesus, and for Him I live

And it is worth it all
It is worth it all
For in Him I have everything I need
It is worth
Yes, it is worth it all
Just to live in His presence and His servant be

Now I have riches
Now I have fame
Now I have power in Jesus name
Now I have all that my God can give
Because I chose Jesus and for Him I live

And it is worth it all
It is worth it all
For in Him I have everything I need
It is worth
Yes, it is worth it all
Just to live in His presence and His servant be

Peace indescribable
Joy that’s unspeakable
Hope that cannot be shaken ever again
Faith that moves mountains
Love like a fountain
All these and more are mine in Jesus’ name

And it is worth it all
It is worth it all
For in Him I have everything I need
It is worth
Yes, it is worth it all
Just to live in His presence and His servant be

				His Disciple Be

I couldn’t ask the Lord for more
Of His amazing grace
Or His everlasting mercy
Or His loving soft embrace

I couldn’t ask the Lord for more
Of His abiding peace
Or His overwhelming joy
Or His Spirit of release

He gives and gives then gives some more
And all He asks of me
Is to follow in His footsteps
And His disciple be

I couldn’t ask for blessings
Because He gives me oh so much
I couldn’t ask for miracles
I’m surrounded by His touch

But I can ask for guidance 
That He lead me every day
And I could ask for wisdom
That I follow in His way

I can ask forgiveness
When I wander from His plan
And I can ask protection
In the palm of His hand

He gives and gives then gives some more
And all He asks of me
Is to follow in His footsteps
And His disciple be

There’s nothing He won’t do for me
To follow in His ways
He’ll walk with me and talk with me
For all my coming days

So I will lift my praises 
To my Savior and my Lord
Because He’s with me forever
He’s the one that I adore

I sit and wonder why, Lord
Do people not choose thee
When they hear you've paid the price
From sin to set them free

Down here they feel so happy 
And they think it's the best
But if they just choose you today. 
They would be richly blessed

In this life they party 
Thinking all of life's a game
If you would fill them with your joy 
They'd never be the same

And when the party's over 
And the happiness is gone 
They sit their all alone and wonder 
When some peace will come

But I can tell them truly 
That the peace that Jesus gives
Will permeate  their soul each day
As long as they shall live

You ask me how I know these things 
So I'll tell you here and now
'Twas not that long ago my friend
That I refused to bow

I loved the party life at night 
But hated waking up
My mind was filled with torment 
My thoughts were so corrupt

It took at least 10 times 
For me to head His call
But when I did, He kept His word
And gave to me His all

He blesses me each day
With His presence,  oh so sweet
He fills my heart with joy
Happiness just can't compete

His peace is so remarkable 
It soothes me every day
And His love is unforgettable
He walks along my way

But most of all His mercy
Is always reaching me
And His grace is so amazing
As it works to keep me free

You see it really is no contest
What the best life is
So why not turn your life around
And make your heart be His.

					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				Mercy Falls

Spring time showers bringing life
Raindrops splashing through the night
Storm clouds billow up so tall
Like the raindrops, mercy falls

Our great God is oh so wise
Mercy keeps us all alive
Through his endless, boundless love
He desires us all above

Winter cold is drawing near
North wind chill that you can hear
Snow is swirling in the air	
Like the snowflake, mercy falls	

Our great God the seasons made
This His promise does remain
Mercy is His promise too
It will come and rescue you

Mercy falls, oh praise His name
Mercy falls, our lives are changed
His great love reaches to all
Oh what joy when Mercy falls



					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				How Excellent Are Your Ways

Oh God, how excellent are your ways
You have been God since before the foundation of the world
You spoke and the earth was formed
The waters and the earth gathered together at your word
At the sound of your voice the earth brought forth trees and greenery
The sun and the moon appeared at your command, and you placed the stars in space
Then you created all the animals, on the ground, in the sea, and the birds and insects
Then you made man out of the dust of the ground
You gave him dominion over all that you have made
And you said it was all good
And you rested
Oh God, my God, how excellent are your ways
Still today you watch over your creation
You bring the rain in due season
The thunder blasts and the lightning crashes at your command
The sky clears and the rainbow appears to remind us of your promise
You bring the crops to maturity and the farmers bring in the harvest
The harvest you have provided 
You turn the trees to brilliant colors in the cool fall air
We marvel at the beauty of your creation
Oh God, my God how excellent are your ways in all the earth
You still love man despite the way he has failed you
You still see him as the crowning jewel of your creation
You cry out to him to turn back to your word
Because you know what is best for your creation
Help us Lord, to turn to you
Help us to follow your word
Help us to pray for our nation
You have been so good to us while we have turned our backs on you
Forgive our nation, Lord, for our transgressions
Hear our plea for healing and restoration
Renew us in your word, and clothe us with your Holy Spirit
Let your love arise in our hearts as we worship you
Let the church rise and carry out your word
That we should humble ourselves, 
And pray, 
And seek your face, 
And turn from our wicked ways
Because then, and only then
Will you hear from heaven
And forgive our sins
And heal our Land.
Oh God, my God, How excellent are your ways in all the earth.


					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				Great, Great Love

One day every knee will bow
In heaven and in earth
And every tongue will confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord

It matters not what they believed
While living on this earth
They must acknowledge He is Lord
For all the world to see

And those who served Him here below
Will then a mansion gain
But those who chose another road
A fire awaits them

As for me I’ll sing His praise 
As long as I have breath
For He’s the one who gave His life
So I’d be free from sin

Oh, the great, great love of God
Who sent His only Son
To die and take my sin away
And rose to give me life

Oh the great. Great love of God
Who looks down from above
And helps me every day I live
To grow in grace and truth

I’ll lift my praise Hosanna
Glory to the King
Highest Hallelujahs
Praise His mighty name

Praise and adoration
To Jesus Christ my Lord
Worthy of my highest praise
Now and evermore.



					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				Pride
			

										

					Leave a reply				

					


				

			

Pride is the enemies most valuable weapon
Pride is the way he maintains his possession
Whenever I get tied up inside of myself
Pride convinces me I'm okay.

Pride will take me to heights of elation 
Pride will send me to the depths of depression 
Whenever I get tied up inside my own self
Pride convinces me I must stay.

Pride is the enemy of God in our hearts
Pride is the first thing that has to depart 
Whatever it takes to get out of myself
Pride must be left in the past 

Because to come to God we must acknowledge our sins
We must ask His forgiveness and grace
We must bow down before Him and say He is Lord
Then, and only then, we'll be saved

Then we will know of His ultimate love
Then we will know that He rules from above
Then we will know that He that He wants to know us
In the very depths of our hearts

And if we humble ourselves before God on that day
We will taste of His marvelous, wonderful grace
We will start to feel love as the pride we erase
And allow His meek Spirit to thrive 

So won't you please recognize all of the pride 
That you've bottled up way down deep inside
And bow on your knee and lay it aside
And be humbled before your God?



					

		
		
	


	

				

			
						

				My Refuge That Lasts
			

										

					Leave a reply				

					


				

			

I’m tired of the doubt that’s within me
That is welling up deep down inside
I want to have faith like a mustard seed
So I’ll know that this pain will subside

I’m tired of feeling this weakness
That my treatments have brought about
I want to have strength like an eagle
So I can His praises shout

I’m tired of being all cooped up
Inside my nice little home
I want to get out and be strong again
So once again I can roam

But I trust the Lord in all things
And I know He will bring me through
Right now the low point of my life
But soon He will miracles do

Until that day I’m delivered
From the weakness I currently have
I still will not cease to praise Him
For He is my refuge that lasts

So I will sing Hallelujah
Praise God from the depths of my heart
He is my Lord forever
From Him I will never depart

Oh what a wonderful Savior
He’s always right here with me
Oh what an awesome creator
He supplies all of my needs

I’ll always trust in His mercy
I’ll always lean on His grace
Until that wonderful, glorious day
That look upon His face.
