I'm trading my sorrows
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord
I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord

We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord Amen
We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord
We say Yes Lord, Yes Lord, Yes Yes Lord Amen

I am pressed but not crushed
Persecuted, not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I am blessed beyond the curse
For His promise will endure
That His joy's gonna be my strength

I'm trading my sorrows
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord
I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord

I'm laying them down for the joy of the Lord

Power Verse:
3/05/02 "Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you." James 4:7
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What great songs you all have been singing! Do any of you know "Seize the Day" by Carolynn Erins(not sure of the spelling) I have only heard it a couple times and I really like it!

Here is what I remember...

Seize the day
Seize whatever you can
Life slips away
Just like hourglass sand
pray for grace
from God's own hand(? not sure that's quite right )
(something, something, something)
Seize the day


Yeah,I know, not much help A song popped into my head last night and DH and I were singing it (very of key of course ) and was setermined to remember it for today...yeah right!!

maybe it will come to me.

Jill, you don't know 'Smellin' Coffee"? Man , do you need a new radio station...we hear it quite often along with "Smell the Color 9". His songs make me smile 'cause they are slightly "off the wall" ( I wanted the crazy smilie, but it seems to be AWOL!).

Stamper, thank you for that power verse today! I don't know that song, but I'm bettin someone does!

 

[JC2]

Be strong with the Lord's mighty power. Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies and tricks of the devil.
Ephesians 6:9-10

A pure heart, that’s what I long for
A heart that follows hard after Thee
A pure heart, that’s what I long for
A heart that follows hard after Thee

A heart that hides Your Word
So that sin will not come in
A heart that’s undivided
But one You rule and reign
A heart that beats compassion
That pleases You, my Lord
A sweet aroma of worship
That rises to Your throne

A pure heart, that’s what I long for
A heart that follows hard after Thee
A pure heart, that’s what I long for
A heart that follows hard after Thee </Font>

Okay Dudes, I should be getting ready for Church but I saw my poor pal Stampy in distress and no one has helped her out yet so Pouter Princess to the rescue!

Stampy, I love Seize the Day by Carolyn Arends, it is past it's prime though according to our radio stations. Heaven forbid they play something that might be more than 2 weeks old!

Anyway....

Seize The Day/Carolyn Arends

I know a girl who was schooled in Manhattan
She reads dusty books and learns phrases in Latin
She is an author or maybe a poet
A genius but its just this world doesn't know it
She works on her novel most every day If you laugh she will say

Seize the day Seize whatever you can
Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand
That nothin' will stand in your way Seize the day
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai

Well I know a doctor A fine young physician
Left his six figure job for a mission position
He's healin' the sick in an African clinic
He works in the dirt and writes home to the cynics
He says we work through the night almost every day
As we watch the sun rise we can say

Seize the day Seize whatever you can
Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand
That nothin will stand in your way Seize the day
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai

Well I know a man who's been doin' some thinkin'
He's as bitter and cold as the whisky he's drinkin'
He's talkin' bout fear 'bout chances not taken
If you listen to him you can hear his heart breakin'
He says "One day you're a boy The next day you're dead
I wish way back when someone had said..."

Seize the day Seize whatever you can
Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand
That nothin' will stand in your way Seize the day
Lai de Dai Dai Lai de Dai Dai Lai de Dai Dai-e-i

Well one thing I've noticed wherever I wander
Everyone's got a dream he can follow or squander
You can do what you will with the days you are given
I'm tryin' to spend mine on the business of livin'
So I'm singin' my songs off of any old stage
You can laugh if you want He'll still say

Seize the day Seize whatever you can
Cause life slips away just like hourglass sand
Seize the day pray for grace from God's hand
That nothin' will stand in your way Seize the day
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai
Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai


BTW HONK!!!

 

[JC2]

Ah, man, dude, I know that song! The Lai de dai de dai Lai de dai de dai da dai woke my brain up and now I recognize it as that fun song that I like on the radio! Now I even know the name of it!

<B>HONK</B>

 

[Hemi-mom]

Yes, I knew that song and I wanted to post it earlier but I kept getting a little message that said the server was busy and I should try again later. I saw CA when she opened for BRYAN DUNCAN in Fall of 2000. She's great!

At least I got my HONK in earlier...

Hey Jill!
~~~~~~~~

Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all

Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name

 

[JC2]

Beautiful Saviour
Wonderful Counsel-or
Clothed in majesty
Lord of history
You're the Way the Truth, the Life
Star of the Morning
Glorious holiness
You're the Risen One
Heaven's Champion
And You reign, You reign, over all

Hey guys, we're going to give this wonderful thread an Inspirational home, but don't worry, we're not going to let it get lost.

But please allow my contribution:

<i>He is here, Hallelujah
He is here, Amen
He is here, Holy, Holy
I will bless His name again

He is here, listen closely
Hear Him calling out your name
He is here, you can touch him
You will never be the same.</i>

 

[Princess Michelle]

cuz heaven forbid there be anything remotely Godly left on the "new CB"

That is one of my favorite songs though, thanks for singing it. Good to know that even though people think they can remove Him, He's still there.

 

[Princess Michelle]

THIS SONG THAT I HAVE
THE WORLD DIDN'T GIVE IT TO ME
THIS SONG THAT I HAVE
THE WORLD DIDN'T GIVE IT TO ME
THIS SONG THAT I HAVE
THE WORLD DIDN'T GIVE IT TO ME
THE WORLD DIDN'T GIVE IT
THE WORLD CAN'T TAKE IT AWAY

 

[Princess Michelle]

I Will Not Go Quietly/SCC

I was born with an angel whispering in my ear
Telling me sacred secrets that God wanted me to hear
And I have lived to tell the mysteries I've been told
And even when they tell me it's my time to go

No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly
No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly no, no, Not go quietly no, no
Not go quietly

These things I tell, they are much true
Than the heart of he who speaks
Even so, this humble servant
Can not help but talk about his king
So I will sing 'cause I can't hold back the song
I shout and scream, Until God takes me home

No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly
No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly no, no, Not go quietly no, no
Not go quietly

So How can I keep silent?
So how can I not speak?
And tell about the Saviour
Who has set this prisoner free?

No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly
No I will not, No I will not
Not go quietly no, no, Not go quietly no, no
Not go quietly

 

[believe]

cuz heaven forbid there be anything remotely Godly left on the "new CB"

We will just have to make sure that we mention God as often as possible on our posts to the CB.

Power Verse:3/07/02 "And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us." 1 John 3:23
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BTW Michelle...HONK!!! I love ya too!!!! Thanks for finishing my song...I know I can always count on you to know what I'm trying to sing!(even when I'm not sure!!)

Well, it's not so much that I dislike our new home on the DIS...but this is how I see it. The IB is like the "church"(regular IBers don't take that the wrong way-you may not all be church goers, etc so please don't flame me...it's just an analogy) of the DIS and the CB is "the world". Church is a great place to visit, but we are called to be a light out in the world. That's all on the subject for me.

 

[Princess Michelle]

Hey Amanda and Stampy! You are both so right in what you have said. I wonder how long it'll be before all prayer requests and such get banned from the CB?

Don't Censor Me/Audio Adrenaline

Pop bang boom pow
kill somebody and you take a bow
Naughty (words), naughty (words)
mouth full of potty (words)

You stretch and you flex
and you swim your S.E.X.
I try to talk about G.O.D.
why you wanna censor me?

I'm the salt of the earth
the city on a hill
My light's twice as bright
I'm gonna show you something real

So Don't (don't), don't (don't), don't (don't)
Don't censor me

We scream we shout
we just wanna let it out
No fuss and no cuss
you still try to censor us
Only one word shakes the earth
only one word holds the worth
One word G.O.D.
why you wanna censor me?

I'm the salt of the earth
the city on a hill
My light's twice as bright
I'm gonna show you something real

So Don't (don't), don't (don't), don't (don't)
Don't censor me

Don't censor me
You can't shut me up!
So don't even try!

I'm the salt of the earth
the city on a hill
My light's twice as bright
I'm gonna show you something real

So Don't (don't), don't (don't), don't (don't)
Don't censor me

 

[dizneenut]

Our God, is an awesome God
