A Vapor

Leave a reply
Before the time that you were born
I held you in my loving arms
And told you of the awesome plans
I have for you
And then I formed you in the womb
I told of my great love for you
And how I knew that you would do
Great things for me
I’ve loved you from the start of time
I want to make you wholly mine
So that one day you’ll come to live with me
Until that day I hope you know
My love for you will only grow
The plans I have for you will overflow
Plans to bring you freedom
Plans to bring you joy
Plans that fill your heart with peace each day
Plans for you to prosper
Plans for you to love
Plans to keep you walking in the way
This life is fleeting at its best
A vapor that does never rest
Your here today and gone again
In this short life
So make this life more than a dream
Where all you do is swim downstream
Seek out the plans I have for you
And follow me

Certain of His Promse

Leave a reply

Constantly abiding, Jesus is my love
Oh the hope of glory He provides
In each waking moment, I will sing His praise
Underneath the shadow of His grace

Overwhelming mercy showed upon the cross
When my Savior bled and died for me
Took upon himself all my guilty sin and shame
Now I will forever praise His name

Wonderful is Jesus, wonderful to me
How He loves me more than I can know
Certain of His promise given long ago
Just because he chose to love me so

Grace full of abundance flows down from above
Sparing me from evils of this world
All that He has done to redeem me from my sin
Gives me joy and peace down deep within

I will never leave Him, stay close by His side
For He is a refuge for my soul
In His arms He’ll carry me up to His throne
Where I will forever have my home.

Wonderful is Jesus, wonderful to me
How He loves me more than I can know
Certain of His promise given long ago
Just because he chose to love me so

I Believe Jesus

Leave a reply
I believe Jesus is King of all Kings
Lord of all Lords, Savior to all.
I believe Jesus has buried my sins
Risen again to bring life to me.
I believe Jesus gives grace undeserved
To me every day of my life
I believe Jesus has mercy unequal
That comes in and carries me through
So I will lift my voice in praise to Him
He’s worthy of all my praise
When I believe Jesus has done this for me
I can’t help but honor His name
I believe Jesus fills my life with joy
His peace overwhelms me each day
And His love never fails even when I am weak
It is then that He makes strong
I believe Jesus will come back for me
Descend in the clouds with victory
Take us to heaven to live with Him there
For all of eternity.
So I will lift my voice in praise to Him
He’s worthy of all my praise
When I believe Jesus has done this for me
I can’t help but honor His name

The Love of your Life

Leave a reply
What can you offer the Lord today?
Are you giving your all?
Do you hear His call?
What can you offer the Lord today?
Make Him the love of your life..
You can offer him time every day of the year
Do all the work for His cause
You can do every task that comes your way
And yet it will all be for loss
If you haven’t been taking the time for yourself
To grow in your love for the Lord.
You can give all the riches He’s blessed you with
To the poor and the needy around
Use your wealth to enhance the church and it’s task
And yet you will not abound
If you don’t seek the riches of  His grace
And constantly call on the Lord
It’s not your possessions, or time, or wealth
That our God requires of you
It’s to love Him and seek His commandments each day
With all that you say and do
Love justice, seek mercy, walk humbly with God
Are the highest of His commands
And to seek Him first and His right way
Is the way to walk into His plans
What can you offer the Lord today?
Are you giving your all?
Do you hear His call?
What can you offer the Lord today?
Make Him the love of your life.
Make Him first as you rise in the morning each day
Make Him first as you walk by the way
Make Him first as you lay down your head at night
Make Him first every time of the day.
For nothing should be more important to you
Than your personal walk with our God
If you get this right then everything else
Will always turn out for good
What can you offer the Lord today?
Are you giving your all?
Do you hear His call?
What can you offer the Lord today?
Make Him the love of your life..

Oh what mercy, Oh what grace

Leave a reply
Oh what mercy, oh what grace
He surrounds me in this place
Ever drawing me so near
To His blessed side
 
Oh what mercy, oh what grace
He loved me and took my place
On a cross He bled and died
Crucified for me
 
Oh the mighty love of Jesus
Coming down from heaven above
Left His royal home in glory
Just to show us His great love
 
Oh what mercy, oh what grace
Soon we’ll see His blessed face
Rose again to give us life
For eternity
 
Oh the mighty love of Jesus
Reached into my sinful heart
Gave me pardon, debt forgiven
And from me He will not part
 
I will worship His sweet name
I will give Him all my praise
Jesus Christ is mine forever
Oh what mercy, oh what grace

Free

Leave a reply
I was free.  Free to live as I please
Free to live life with ease.  I was free.
I was free.  Free to do anything.
Free to lie and to drink. I was free.
No one showed me the way
No one planned out my day
No one cared if I wandered away
I just did want I wanted
And nothing could stop me
I just didn’t care. I was free.
But I had no peace deep down inside
Joy was a myth in my mixed up life
The littlest thing got me bent out of shape
And at times I did nothing but hate.
One day I looked hard in the mirror
And the one looking back at me
Looked tired and worn out and lonely
And certainly did not look free.
I heard a voice whisper so softly
That I’d heard as a child long ago
He said, Son I am here for the asking
Why not let me carry your load
I looked back into eyes that were darkened
And a tear ran right down my face
I remembered the story of Jesus
And the sacrifice He had made
I remembered the prayer they had taught me
Please forgive me of all of my sin
Come into my heart as the Lord of my life
And you’ll come and live deep within
I prayed out that prayer on the mirror
And when I was done I could see
That the freedom I once thought was mine
Was a bondage to sin and disease.
Because now I really felt freedom
Now I could feel His sweet peace
A joy bubbled up inside me
And I felt His sweet presence so deep
I am free.  Free from my sin and disease
Free to follow His lead. I am free.
I am free. Totally free indeed.
Free from a lonely defeat. I am free.
And I will follow His ways
All of my days
And give Him my praise
For His wonderful ways
Because His word says
I am free.

Follow Him

Leave a reply

He whispers softly in my ear

The words I always long to hear

You are my son,

I love you more

Than you can know

 

He calls my name and then He says

Come walk with me along the way

And I will show you

Wondrous things

I planned for you.

 

Plans to bring you healing

Plans to prosper you

Plans that you might have success

Plans that will bless you

All you have to do

To walk into these plans of mine

Is take my hand

And hear my voice

And follow me.

 

I lay my life down every day.

So He might freely have His way

I listen close

I walk in line

I stand my ground

 

I see His plan come true for me

I watch His hand bring great mercy

I know His grace

Will cover me

And bring me peace

 

Oh the wondrous love my Savior has for me

Died upon the cross so that I could be set free

All I have to do to gain this gift sent from above

Is give my life

And all my heart

And f­ollow Him.

Jesus Cares

Leave a reply

If your backs against the wall
If your trials are to tall
If your faith has seemed to small
Jesus cares

If your hope has lost its way
If your joy has gone astray
If your love does not repay
Jesus cares

He cares for every problem
He cares for every need
And when we think He’s far away
He’s watching over me
There never is a time
When He’s not reaching out to me
If I will only listen I will see
Jesus cares

If your spirit has no shout
If your full of fear and doubt
If your sin has found you out
Jesus cares

He’s always near. He’ll lend an ear
He hears your prayer. He knows your there
So when the storm. Begins to roar
Let your faith soar. He hears you more

He cares for every problem
He cares for every need
And when we think He’s far away
He’s watching over me
There never is a time
When He’s not reaching out to me
If I will only listen I will see
Jesus cares

Quiet

Leave a reply
I am the God of heaven
I created a everything
From the light that shines forever
To the birds that sweetly sing
Quiet, please be quiet
Let me whisper in yor ear
Please be silent and await
These words you need to hear
I love you, I adore you
I want you for my own
I want to come and save you
From a world that’s all gone wrong
My desire is to heal you
My delight to give you peace
I’m determined to protect you
From the enemy’s deceit
I have great plans for your life
Plans to prosper and provide
But you must be still and listen
If this plan is to arrive
Because I give you choice today
To choose your ways or mine
And the sooner that you listen
The sooner you will find
That my plans are for your good
And you won’t be left behind

 

Quiet, please be quiet
For you might heart does yearn
And I’ll love you forever
Won’t you love me in return?
