I may never march in the infantry,
Ride in the cavalry,
Shoot the artillery.
I may never zoom o'er the enemy,
But I'm in the Lord's army. Yes, sir!

I'm in the Lord's army. Yes, sir!
I'm in the Lord's army. Yes, sir!

I may never march in the infantry,
Ride in the cavalry,
Shoot the artillery.
I may never zoom o'er the enemy,
But I'm in the Lord's army. Yes, sir!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Yes, Buck, it was very nice. Sad, but so very sweet at the same time.

We Can Make A Difference

We live in a dream
If we really think
Everything's alright

This world is in need
Crying out to be freed
We gotta shed some light

Teach the world to smile
And hear angels sing
Feel the breath of God
And the power it brings
It's time to come together, you and I
And share the love of Jesus Christ

Chorus:
We can make a difference
We can make a change
We can make the world a better place
We can make a difference
We can make a change
We can make the sun shine through the rain
Shine on through the rain

Do you know a man
Who's needing a hand?
Don't ya walk on by

A sister is sad
Lost all that she had
We gotta take the time

Look around your world
It will testify
Some have empty hearts
Some have hungry eyes
God can heal the suffering through our hands
Find compassion, take a stand

Repeat Chorus

Teach the world to smile
And hear angels sing
Feel the breath of God
And the power it brings
It's time to come together, you and I
And share the love of Jesus Christ

--Mark Heimermann, David Mullen

I'm a little vessel for the Lord
God is my light,
His word is my sword
Whenever He needs me,
Hear me Shout
Tip me over and pour me out!

 

[Princess Michelle]

Dan, that had to have sounded so beautiful. I can hear it in my mind.

Brenda, it's so nice to see you singing with us, that is a wonderful song.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Lord, You are
More precious than silver
Lord, You are
More costly than gold
Lord, You are
More beautiful than diamonds
And nothing I desire
Compares with You

I love You Lord
And I lift my voice
To worship You
Oh my soul, rejoice
Take joy my King
In what You hear
May it be a sweet, sweet sound
In Your ear</Font>
<Font color="darkgreen">
You are beautiful beyond description
Too marvelous for words
Too wonderful for comprehension
Like nothing ever seen or heard
Who can grasp Your infinite wisdom
Who can fathom the depths of Your love
You are beautiful beyond description
Majesty enthroned above

And I stand, I stand in awe of You
I stand, I stand in awe of You
Holy God to Whom all praise is due
I stand in awe of You</Font>

O a little talk with Jesus make it right, all right
Little talk with Jesus make it right, all right
Troubles of ev’ry kind
Hank God I’ll always find
That little talk with Jesus make it right.

My brother, I remember when I was a sinner lost
I cried, “Have mercy, Jesus”
But still my soul was tossed
Till I heard King Jesus say,
“Come here, I’m on the way”
And little talk with Jesus make it right.

Sometimes the fork lightning and muttering thunder, too
Of trials and temptations
Make it hard for me and you
But Jesus was a friend,
He’ll keep us to the end
And little talk with Jesus make it right.

My brother and my sister, you have trials like me
When we are trying to serve the Lord
And win the victory
Old Satan fight us hard
Our journey to retard
But little talk with Jesus make it right.

THE SEASON OF LOVE/4HIM

Outside on a cold and lonely street
A homeless woman sleeps this Christmas
Tonight, there’s a child that dreams of home
In an orphanage alone
For all they really need is a helping hand from
You and me

The season of love
I really believe that this would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all play our part
Just by giving from the heart I know
Christmas will really become
The season of love

Somewhere, underneath a Christmas tree
Is a simple manger scene this Christmas
And there lying on a bed of straw
Is the greatest gift of all
This Christmas let’s let the world know
For all they really need is the love of God
To set them free


The season of love
I really believe that this would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all play our part
Just by giving from the heart I know
Christmas will really become
The season of love


Though the holiday passes away
And the lights begin to fade
The spirit of Christmas will remain


The season of love
I really believe that this would be much better
And people would come together
If we share the reason for the season of love
The spirit of Christmas will change
This world forever
If we all play our part
Just by giving from the heart I know
Christmas will really become
The season of love

Mary said, "My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.... The Mighty One has done great things for me - holy is his name."

 

[Saphire]

This is another song we are practicing for Christmas Eve, it is a song written in the 13th century, is sung a capella, and has the sound of a gregorian chant...it's beautiful!

Of the Father's love begotten,
Ere the worlds began to be,
He is Alpha and Omega,
He the source, the ending he.
Of the things that are, that have been,
And that future years shall see,
Evermore and evermore!

O that birth for ever blessed,
When the virgin, full of grace,
By the Holy Ghost conceiving,
Bare the Saviour of our race;
And the Babe, the world's Redeemer,
First revealed his sacred face,
Evermore and evermore!

O ye heights of heav'n adore Him;
Angels hosts, His praises sing;
Powers, dominions, bow before Him,
And extol our God and King;
Let no tongue on earth be silent,
Every voice in concert ring,
Evermore and evermore!

Christ, to thee with God the Father,
And, O Holy Ghost, to thee,
Hymn and chant and high thanksgiving,
And unwearied praises be:
Honor, glory, and dominion,
And eternal victory,
Evermore and evermore! Amen.

Christmas is Jesus
Scented pine...dreams of snow
Candle light...colors glow,
Family...hold me close
Thoughts of home...and heaven

Christmas is Jesus
A Child for all men
Gone from the manger and tomb He lay in
Christmas is Jesus
God's love coming true
A star from the heavens has fallen for you

Crowded streets...passers by
Children smile...beggars cry
"Peace on Earth"...rings a bell
Choirs will sing the story

Christmas is Jesus
A Child for all men
Gone from the manger and tomb He lay in
Christmas is Jesus
God's love coming true
A star from the heavens has fallen for you

JOIN WISEMEN AND KINGS
WORSHIP THIS CHILD TONIGHT
SUCH A PRECIOUS OFFERING, PLEASING IN HIS SIGHT
AND KEEP THE PEACE THIS CHRISTMAS TIME
THE PRINCE OF PEACE KEEPING YOUR HEART AND MIND

Christmas is Jesus
A Child for all men
Gone from the manger and tomb He lay in
Christmas is Jesus
God's love coming true
A star from the heavens has fallen for you

 

[Hemi-mom]

Saphire, I absolutley LOVE that song! We used to sing it in my Jr. Choir at church growing up. It has such a beautiful, flowing melody and the lyrics...~AWESOME~

Thanks for posting it!

Sweep it clean
Ain’t going to tarry here

I sweep my house with the gospel room
Ain’t going to tarry here

Sweep it clean
Ain’t going to tarry here

Gong to open my mouth to the Lord
Ain’t going to tarry here

O-o-o Lordy,
Ain’t going to tarry here

‘Cause he’s digging down in the grave
Ain’t going to tarry here

The big bell’s tolling in Galilee
Ain’t going to tarry here

O-o-o Lordy
Ain’t going to tarry here

 

[Hemi-mom]

This is one I sing with the kids at my church...

Glory, glory, glory to God!
Glory in the highest!

Glory, glory, glory to God!
Glory in the highest!

And peace on earth!
Good will to men!
Peace on earth!

And peace on earth!
Good will to men!
Peace on earth,
THE SAVIOR IS BORN!

Glory, glory, glory to God!
Glory in the highest!

Glory, glory, glory to God!
Glory in the highest!

I bring you good news,
good tidings of great joy!
I bring you good news,
good tidings of great joy,
THE SAVIOR IS BORN!
THE SAVIOR IS BORN!

From the MWS, "Christmastime" CD:

Carols sings to the King
Jesus Christ our Savior
Born this day, Angels say
In a lowly manger

He came down to the earth
Bringing us new birth
Carols sing to the King
Jesus Christ our Savior

A verse Jill added:

Carols sing to our King
Jesus Christ will save us
Little Lamb, Great I AM
On the cross He will save us
Vict'ry ore death and sin!
Conquering love enter in!
Carols sing to our King
Jesus Christ our Savior!

Tidings bring! Hail the King!
Shepherds did adore Him
From afar, by the star
Wise men sought and found Him

SON OF GOD, SON OF MAN,
MY ALL IN ALL I SEE!!

Carols raise, His name praise!
He shall reign eternally!

He came down to the earth
Bringing us new birth
Carols Sing, to the King
Jesus Christ our Savior!

 

[Saphire]

Hi Jilly,
I had never heard that song until this very season, and when I did, I was amazed at the simple beauty of it. I am looking forward to singing it on Christmas Eve. So glad you like it too. Here is some Scripture for this blessed season:

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

 

[EROS]

Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me ‘roun’
Turn me ‘roun’
Ain’t gonna let nobody turn me ‘roun’
I’m gonna wait until my change comes
Don’t let nobody turn you ‘roun’
Turn you ‘roun’
Don’t let nobody turn you ‘roun’
Wait until your change comes

I say I’m gonna hold out
Hold out, hold out
I say that I’m gonna hold out
Until my change comes

I promised the lord that I would hold out
Hold out
I promised the Lord that I would hold out
Wait until my change comes

<Font color="deeppink">
I will come and bow down
At Your feet Lord Jesus
In Your presence is fullness of joy
There is nothing
There is no one
Who compares with You
I take pleasure in worshiping You Lord</Font>

 

[EROS]

Lord, I keep so busy praisin’ my Jesus
Keep so busy praisin’ my Jesus

‘Cause it takes all o’ ma time

[Dan Murphy]

Very nice, Jilly and Saphire. And Jennifer, simple but sweet.

Deep Love

Sky is calling to the steeple
As it echoes out my name
I can hear You in the air I breathe
Spanning the years that have come and gone
You roll like the ocean underneath the sun
Weaving my soul to the Holy One
Weaving on and on with...
Love, it searches everything
It searches everyone
Your love, it reaches all that I am
And I am overcome by Your
Deep, deep love
Deep, deep love

Candles are burning
And I pray that You'll be near me as I kneel
I can see You in the air I breathe
