Holy Holy
Lord God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
Lord most holy
Worthy of glory
Power and majesty are Yours

Blessing and honor
To You forever
Unto the Lamb upon the throne
Strength and salvation
Belong to the Savior
Holy Holy is the Lord

 

[JC2]

Let the name of the Lord be praised
Let the name of the Lord be praised
From the rising of the sun
To the place where it goes down
The name of the Lord is to be praised
The name of the Lord is to be praised
The name of the Lord is to be praised!

Come now is the time to worship
Come now is the time to give your heart
Come just as you are to worship
Come just as you are before your God
Come

One day every tongue will confess
One day every knee will bow
Still the greatest treasure remains for those
Who gladly choose You now

Come now is the time to worship
Come now is the time to give your heart
Come just as you are to worship
Come just as you are before your God
Come</Font>

The Power of Your Love


Lord, I come to You, let my heart be changed renewed,

Flowing from the grace that I found in You.

Lord, I’ve come to know the weaknesses I see in me

Will be stripped away by the power of Your love


Hold me close, let Your love surround me.

Bring me near, draw me to Your side.

And as I wait I’ll rise up like the eagle, and I will soar with You,

Your spirit leads me on in the power of Your love.



Lord, unveil my eyes, let me see You face to face,

The knowledge of Your love as You live in me.

Lord, renew my mind as Your will unfolds in my life;

In living everyday by the power of Your love.


Hold me close, let Your love surround me.

Bring me near, draw me to Your side.

And as I wait I’ll rise up like the eagle, and I will soar with You,

Your spirit leads me on in the power of Your love.

Jilly, that is one of my favorite songs, for real!

I'm not feeling well today so if you guys could say a prayer I'd appreciate it, thanks.

Hey Michelle,

Just prayed for ya Sis. Hope you're feelin' better soon!

 

[Dan Murphy]

Hope you feel better soon, Michelle.

At the Chicago DIS meet this past Saturday, one of the DIS folks gave me a tape of Michael W. Smith. She said two songs were poignant to her as they related to her and me. I thought I would post the lyrics here, as I thought they were quite moving. And thank you again to my friend. Here is one of them.

I Will Be Here for You

---Michael W. Smith / Diane Warren

When you feel the sunlight
Fade into the cold night
Don't know where to turn
I don't know where to turn
And all the dreams you're dreaming
Seem to lose their meaning
Let me in your world
Baby, let me in your world
All you need is someone you can hold
Don't be sad, you're not alone

Chorus:
I will be here for you
Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
I'll shine a light for you
Somewhere in the night
I'll be standing by
I will be here for you

In this world of strangers
Of cold and friendly faces
Someone you can trust
Oh there's someone you can trust
I will be your shelter
I'll give you my shoulder
Just reach out for my love
Reach out for my love
Call my name and my heart will hear
I will be there, there's nothing to fear

Chorus

Hi Dan, thanks for singing with us!! I really like MWS! Sounds like you had a good time at the DIS meet!

 

[JC2]

Hey Everybody!
Michelle, I'm praying!

Dan, thanks for that song! Michael W. Smith has such great music! I hope you like his CD.

Jill, The Power of Your Love is a great song! Thanks for singing it - so much truth in it!

Hey there Stamper!

I am the God
That healeth thee
I am the Lord your Healer
I sent my Word and healed your disease
I am the Lord Your Healer

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

He touched me
Oh He touched me
And oh, the joy that floods my soul
Something happened and now I know
He touched me and made me whole

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Breathe on me
Breathe on me
Holy Spirit breathe on me
Take Thou my heart
Cleanse every part
Holy Spirit breathe on me

[JC2]

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
There's just something about that name
Master, Savior, Jesus
Like the fragance after the rain
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Let all heaven and earth proclaim
Kings and kingdoms will all pass away
But there's something about that name

 

[JC2]

Amazing Grace
How sweet the sound
Amazing love
Now flowing down
From hands and feet
That were nailed to a tree
His grace flows down and covers me

It covers me
It covers me
It covers me
It covers me

His grace flows down and covers me

 

[Princess Michelle]

Hi guys, just wanted to stop in for a minute and say how much I appreciate your prayers and all the beautiful songs you've been singing. I'm still feeling pretty bad but I'll come sing when I can. Love you guys.

 

[Dan Murphy]

This is the second song from Michael W Smith that I spoke of yesterday. It also is very nice.

Friends

Michael W. Smith / Deborah D. Smith

Packing up the dreams of God planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes He's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

Chorus:
And friends are friends forever
If the Lord's the Lord of them
And a friend will not say "never"
Cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the Father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends

With the faith and love God's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
Cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

Chorus

Dan, we love MWS around here so you just keep on singing! Both of the songs you sang are excellent. Is the album she gave you The First Decade? It's got some great songs on it if it is.

 

[JC2]

Hey Michelle! Feel better sooooooon!

Dan, I love that MWS song too!!! Great music!

Hi all!

Thanks to everybody for your prayers for Jonathan...He's doing much better now that he's on antibiotics. It was Strep throat.

I would like to ask for prayers for Michael too. His new leg brace is giving him some trouble (in the form of a BIG blister), and we have to get it adjusted. He can't wear it in the mean time and that means not as efficient walking for him. Poor little guy...the other day it was SUPER hot here, (...still is BTW), and he tripped and fell and skinned his knee, (the first day in shorts, of course) and then we found a tiny little garter snake (like the size of a big earthworm) and he was holding it and his brother screamed and the snake bit Michael. He had a rough day and said, "Mom I really don't like this day at all!!!" Can't say I ever feel like that, can you???? Anyway he's healing up and we'll get his brace adjusted and back on him as soon as we can. Thanks for lifting up a little guy who's feeling the weight of the world for many reasons right now.


Michelle, I hope you are feeling better really soon... It's such a drag to be not feeling well... Miss you and hope you're better in no time at all. I hope you find some encouragement coming your way... Thanks for singing those D&K songs a couple days ago!!!

Stamper, Congrats on the puppy!!!!!! What kind is she again? I know it's just like having a new baby around so we understand if you get a little busy! Nothing like potty training ALL OVER AGAIN!! LOLOL So glad to see you whenever you can stop by.

JC, that song called Hallelujahs...where do I know that from? You guys have to understand somethin'. My husband and I were just talking the other night about how I'm the type of person who needs to hear stuff, (I'm an auditory learner) and if it is set to music...that's even better. So sometimes when I look at words to a song that is only vaguely familiar, I can't remember if I know it unless I hear it. Now, ya'll don't have to go out and find midi files for me everytime this happens, but if you could just tell me who sings it maybe that will help. ANYWHO...I LOVE THAT SONG, JC2. The words are incredible! (Whew! Point finally made Babbles strikes again!)

Dan Murphy, thanks for posting those MWS songs! I love them both but FRIENDS goes way back for me!

Thank you to Sherry and Elaine for your great singing. I like all of the songs you both shared! Please come and post as often as you can and keep the praises flowing!

Hey guys...Here's the song we sing with our kids every night at bedtime...it's too the tune of Eidelweiss (sp?) from the Sound of Music...

May the Lord, Mighty God, bless and keep you forever
Grant you peace, perfect peace, courage in every endeavor
Lift up your eyes and see His face, and His grace forever
May the Lord, Mighty God, bless and keep you forever!

 

[Hemi-mom]

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You,
I want to see You

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You,
I want to see You

To see You high and lifted up
Shining the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and Love as we sing
Holy Holy Holy

Holy, Holy, Holy,
Holy, Holy, Holy,
Holy, Holy, Holy
I want to see You
