Can I get a witness for our God most high
Who set the world in motion from beyond the sky
He made this lovely planet just for you and I
Oh what a wondrous God we serve
Wonderful He is to me
Wondrous God we serve
Sent His Son to Calvary
His grace I don’t deserve
Now He watches over me
His blessings are reserved
I can’t worship Him enough
Wondrous God we serve
Can I get a witness for the Son who came
To die a beggar’s death to take my sin and shame
Then He rose to heaven. He’s alive again
Oh what a wondrous God we serve
Marvelous He is to me
Wondrous God we serve
Mercy flowing wide and free
None that I deserve
His great love surrounds me
Even when I swerve
I can’t worship Him enough
Wondrous God we serve
Can I get a witness for the Holy Ghost
Who guides us every day if the Son we chose
He guides us to the truth, keeps us on our toes
Oh what a wondrous God we serve
I will lift His name on high
I’ll shout it out to all the sky
And share it with the passers-by
What a wondrous God
I’ll live for Him all of my days
And do my best to show His ways
To all who I may reach each day
What a wondrous God
Wonderful He is to me
Wondrous God we serve
Sent His Son to Calvary
His grace I don’t deserve
Now He watches over me
His blessings are reserved
I can’t worship Him enough
Wondrous God we serve
I posted a poem back in July called “I’ll Lift Him Up”. I have recorded this on YouTube, and thought I’d share that here. I am not a very good piano player, nor do I have a great voice, but I love to worship the Lord and share what He has given me. I pray you will be blessed.
I don’t know why He loves me, but He does
I don’t know why He saved me, but He did
He gave up all he had and left His throne above
To show His grace and mercy were enough
I don’t deserve His favor, but He gives
I don’t deserve His blessing, yet it rains
He treats me like His son who has finally come home
And tells me I will never be alone
His love is greater.
His love is deeper
His love is purer.
Than I have ever found
His grace is greater.
His grace is deeper
His grace is purer.
His mercy will abound
And when the final role is called
And my name is heard out loud
I will see Him as I cross the pearly gates
Now I know that by His stripes I’m healed
I know that He delivers, and sets me free
When trials come my way I know His loving hand
Will always guide me to His perfect plan
Now I know His power is so vast
He tells me He’s my strength, and it will last
I can depend on Him no matter what I face
To keep me in His sweet amazing grace
His love is greater.
His love is deeper
His love is purer.
Than I have ever found
His grace is greater.
His grace is deeper
His grave is purer
His mercy will abound
And when the final role is called
And my name is heard out loud
I will see Him as I cross the pearly gates
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
What can I offer you Lord of my life?
All that I have is my praise sacrifice.
No matter the mood, or whatever the pain
I’ll still take the time to lift up your name
Praise the Lord. He is worthy of praise
Praise the Lord all of my days
I will lift up His name
His wonderful name
Praise the Lord
How can I thank you oh Lord of my days?
You have given me all that I have by your grace.
I can only give thanks with the fruit of my lips
And I offer my life in thanks for your gifts
Thank you Lord. You are worthy of praise
Thank you Lord all of my days
I will lift up His name
His wonderful name
Thank you Lord
You are the one that I long for
You are the one I adore
You are the one who saved me
And I’ll praise your name evermore
What can I do for you, Lord of all time?
How can I show that your love still abides?
All I can do is tell others around me
That your love is theirs if they’ll only believe
Praise the Lord. He is worthy of praise
Praise the Lord all of my days
I will lift up His name
His wonderful name
Praise the Lord
I don’t think I will ever see
A love song start this way
When He gave up all of heavens praise
To come here as a babe
I don’t think I will ever know
A child who was so meek
He worked those years in Fathers shop
When He knew who He would be
Then the love song picks up tempo
As He’s baptized with such grace
The Holy Spirit declares His name
And He starts to show His face
Then He teaches for the next 3 years
The people flock to see Him
He brings healing and deliverance
And sets His fire within
But the love song takes a bitter tone
As the leaders plot against Him
And with the help of one of His own
They take Him and arrest Him
The music is so melancholy
As the crowd cries crucify
And they beat Him, mock Him, scourge Him
And nail Him up so high
But this is where the love song shows
His deepest love for me
As He cries out from the cross “Forgive”
And from sin He sets me free
And even though he bows His head
And dies at Calvary
The love song doesn’t end right there
One last stanza’s meant for me
For in three days He rose again
His spirit won’t depart
His love will keep Him at our side
As He lives inside our heart
Oh the wondrous love of Jesus
Oh the beauty of His plan
He has given all for me
Now He holds me in His hand
Oh the precious song He’s written
With His life so full of love
Tis the greatest love song written
Coming down from heaven above
It is well with my spirit
It is well with my Lord
I’ve been washed in the blood
I have been restored
A home in heaven
Will be my reward
All is well, all is well
With my Lord
It is well with my body
I am healed throughout
By the stripes on his back
Healing came about
And each day when I wake up
I will sing and shout
All is well, all is well
With my Lord
It is well in my mind
There’s no doubt or fear
For the thorns on His brow
Left His peace in there
And the faith I now have
Gives me cause to cheer
All is well, all is well
With my Lord
All is we all the time
When I have His grace
All is well all the time
When His mercy reigns
I can’t wait for the day
When I see His face
I’m in love, I’m in love
With my Lord
It is well with my life
Since the day I prayed
Asking Jesus to hear me
So that I’d be saved
Now I know He is with me
Each and every day
All is well, all is well
With my Lord
All is well, all is well
With my Lord all the time
He has given me love
He has given me live
I will follow Him
All the days if my life
All is well, all is well
With my Lord
Beautiful Savior
You are to me
Gave up your life
To set me free
I’ll be with you
For eternity
All because of your love
Wonderful counselor
You’re always there
To hear every heartache
And every prayer
Giving me counsel
Helping me hear
Wisdom that comes from above
Gracious redeemer
You give me hope
When I was lost
You made heaven my home
Took all my past
And washed it like snow
You have a plan for my life
Miraculous Healer
Of all my disease
Your blood was shed
To bring me your peace
Whether my body
Or mind is not eased
Your touch will calm ever fear
Marvelous friend
You’ll always be
Walking along
As you care for my needs
Often you carry me
When I am weak
You are my hero and Lord
Jesus, Oh Jesus
You’re my everything
Lord of all Lords
King of all Kings
From now and forever
Your praise I will sing
Since you came into my heart
