[Hemi-mom]

O Love that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe,
That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

O light that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

O Joy that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain,
That morn shall tearless be.

O Cross that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.

Peace Peace

Flowing down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever I pray
With fathomless billows of love

I need Your Peace Peace
Your Wonderful Peace
Flowing down from the Father above
Sweep over my spirit forever I pray
With fathomless billows of love

Sweep over my spirit forever I pray
With fathomless billows of love

It has been such a neat experience for me to actually use the internet to praise the Lord these past few years! Thanks JC for starting and continuing this thread!

One of my favorite songs and so appropriate for this thread where His praises are being lifted up by so many ...

When I Hear The Praises Start/Keith Green

My son, My son, why are you striving,
You can't add one thing to what's been done for you,
I did it all while I was dying,
Rest in your faith, my peace will come to you.

For when I hear the praises start, I want to rain upon you,
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,
Because you are My child and know me, to Me you're only holy,
Nothing that you've done remains, only what you do for Me.

My child, My child, why are you weeping,
You will not have to wait forever,
That day and that hour is in My keeping,
The day I'll bring you into Heaven.

For when I hear the praises start, MY CHILD, I want to rain upon you,
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,
Because you are My child and you know me, to me you're only holy,
Nothing that you've done remains, only what you do in Me.

My precious bride, the day is nearing,
When I'll take you in My arms and hold you,
I know there are so many things that you've been hearing,
But you just hold on to what I have told you.

For when I hear the praises start, MY BRIDE, I want to rain upon you,
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,
Because you are My child, and you know Me, to me you're only holy,
Nothing that you've done will remain, only what you do for me.

Hi everyone! You all have posted some wonderful things the last few days, I've enjoyed reading each of them and singing along with you.


Father, I love You
My heart is filled with desire to see
Your power and glory
Cover the earth
As the waters clothe the sea
I am surrounded by the fortress of God
Totally surrendered to You

I lift up my hands
Standing unashamed
I worship You Father
Exalting Your name
You've captured my heart
Now my life has changed
I lift up my hands
I lift up my hands

Choose Life/Big Tent Revival

A choice is set before you now
Living or dying, blessing or cursing
You know, the time has come around
To turn from your fighting
And rest in his mercy

Choose life, that you might live
The life that He gives
He gives you forever
Choose life, the way that is true
From the one who chose you
Your father in Heaven
Choose life

Trust the Lord with all your heart
All of your soul and all of your being
Hold on, listen and obey
Surrender your life into His keeping

Choose life, that you might live
The life that He gives
He gives you forever
Choose life, the way that is true
From the one who chose you
Your father in Heaven
Choose life

And the weight you're under
Will be lifted away
And the world will wonder
What happened here today
Then you'll stand right here and say

Choose life, that you might live
The life that He gives
He gives you forever
Choose life, the way that is true
From the one who chose you
Your father in Heaven
Choose life

Listen To Our Hearts/Geoff Moore & The Distance

How do you explain, how do you describe
A love that goes from the east to west
And runs as deep as it is ride
You know all our hopes
Lord, you know all our fears
And words cannot express the love we feel
But we long for You to hear

So listen to our hearts
Here our spirits sing
A song of praise that flows
From those you have redeemed
We will use the words we know
To tell you what an awesome God You are
But words are not enough
To tell you of our love
So listen to our hearts

If words could fall like rain
From these lips of mine
And if I had a thousand years
I would still run out of time
So if You'll listen to my heart
Every beat will say
Thank You for the life, Thank You for the truth,
Thank You for the way

So listen to our hearts
Here our spirits sing
A song of praise that flows
From those you have redeemed
We will use the words we know
To tell you what an awesome God You are
But words are not enough
To tell you of our love
So listen to our hearts

 

[Princess Michelle]

Come To Me/Geoff Moore & The Distance

When life's river
Becomes a trickling stream
I've got to remember
He will make a way to find the sea
When the ground is dry and cracking
From the heat of my daily routine
That's when a slow down and listen
And I hear my Savior whispering

Come to me
Come to me
When you are weary
When you are wandering
Come to me, come to me
Cast your cares upon The One
Whose yoke is easy
And whose burden is light

When you feel like an island in a raging storm
No matter what your fear says
Jesus will never leave you alone
He sees, He hears, and He feels your pain
He will not pass you by
Hear him now as He calls you by name

Come to me
Come to me
When you are weary
When you are wandering
Come to me, come to me
Cast your cares upon The One
Whose yoke is easy
And whose burden is light

A rough week, JC2?

Sorry for my ignorance, but please know I'm praying for you!

It has been such a neat experience for me to actually use the internet to praise the Lord these past few years! Thanks JC for starting and continuing this thread!

Couldn't have said it better!

 

[JC2]

I need Thee every hour
Most gracious Lord
No tender voice like Thine
Can peace afford

I need Thee
Oh I need Thee
Every hour I need Thee
Oh bless me now my Savior
I come to Thee

 

[CRB#33]

I posted over on JC2's Thought thread a little about suffering. Just an FYI. http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=175952

Take care this evening everyone.

You are loved.

 

[Hemi-mom]

SHELTER IN THE RAIN/4HIM

How long have you been
Waiting on a little sun to shine
To take away the night
Hold on for you are never alone
Through the darkest skies
There is a guiding light

For our God is a refuge
Where the weary can run and hide
in times of trouble
He’ll be the calm in the midst of the storm
‘Till it passes by
Oh, you need to know

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

Sometimes when hope is hard to find
We’ve got to walk by faith
Until we see the way
Hold tight for we are promised in time
Those who patiently wait
Will never wait in vain

For we know God is faithful
He’s a fortress to run into
In times of trouble
He’ll cover us with the wings of his love
‘Till we make it through
Oh, we got to know

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

So tell me why
Why could you ever run away
From the cover out into the storm
Just know in time
The rain’s gonna bring a brighter day
And the clouds will be gone
But while you wait on the Lord

There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain

We saw Point of Grace yesterday in concert after a basketball game. They were awesome.

Circle of Friends

We were made to love and be loved
But the price this world demands will cost you far too much
Spent so many lonely years just trying to fit in
Now I've found my place in this circle of friends

In a circle of friends, we have one Father
In a circle of friends, we share this prayer
That every orphaned soul will know, and all will enter in
To the shelter of this circle of friends

If you weep, I will weep with you
If you sing for joy the rest of us
Will lift our voices too
But no matter what you feel inside there's no need to pretend
That's the way it is in this circle of friends


In a circle of friends, we have one Father
In a circle of friends, we share this prayer
That we'll gather together no matter how the highway bends
I will not lose this circle of friends


Bridge:

Among the nations, tribes and tongues
We have sisters and brothers
And when we meet in heaven
We will recognize each other
With joy so deep and love so sweet
Oh, we'll celebrate these friends
And life that never ends

In a circle of friends, we have one father
In a circle of friends, we share this prayer
That it will not be long before all will enter in
To the shelter of this circle of friends
That it will not be long before all will enter in
To the shelter of this circle
Of friends

Lead Me to the Water/Bryan Duncan

Between the divide, there is a river.
The water is clear and pure as driven snow.
It flows from a spring that wells forever,
Enriching the world beneath God Almighty's throne.
And though the masses won't believe it,
If it's there it's not too far to go.

Lead me to the water that can wash my heart clean,
Replenish my spirit.
Lead me to the water, the crystaline water,
And let me start over.
In the springs of living water, let each new day begin.

They're standing their ground out in the desert.
Wasting away, but not thirsty anymore.
You're taking a chance against the current;
Old habits will stand and they'll curse you from the shore.
But I'm sure I wanna chance it,
And the time has come, so let me go.

Lead me to the water that can wash my heart clean,
Replenish my spirit.
Lead me to the water, the crystaline water,
And let me start over.
In the springs of living water, let each new day begin.
In the springs of living water, let each new day begin.

Aaaahhh!

HEY MICHELLE!!!! I have a question...Have you ever seen "Child of Promise"? I was just reading about it on the friends of 4HIM website and I saw the video of the song Nuttin' Ever Happens to a Shepherd...SO FUNNY! ANyway, I had never heard of "Child of Promise" and I was wondering if you ever saw it. It sounds great. Is it done ever year at Christmas?

BTW...praying for you, sis!

 

[Hemi-mom]

Let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich"
Let the blind say, "I can see"
It's what the Lord has done in me

Hosanna, Hosanna
To the Lamb that was slain
Hosanna, Hosanna
Jesus died and rose again

Into the river I will wade
There my sins are washed away
From the heavens
Mercy streams
Of the Savior's love for me
I will rise from waters deep
Into the saving arms of God
I will sing salvation songs
Jesus Christ has set me free

Hosanna, Hosanna
To the Lamb that was slain
Hosanna, Hosanna
Jesus died and rose again

Meet with Me/Ten Shekel Shirt

I'm here to meet with You
Come and meet with me
I'm here to find You
Reveal Yourself to me

As I wait You make me strong
As I long, You draw me to Your arms
As I stand and sing Your praise
You come and You come and You fill this place
Won't You come, won't You come and fill this place
