How great are You Lord
How great is Your mercy
How great are the things that You have done for me
How great are You Lord
Your loving kindness
Is filling my heart as I sing
How great are you Lord

How great is Your love
It reaches to the heavens
How great is the heart
That sought and rescued me

How great are You Lord
How great is Your mercy
How great are the things that You have done for me
How great are You Lord
Your loving kindness
Is filling my heart as I sing
How great are you Lord</Font>

OOOOOOH, Great songs Heather and JF1!!!

I swear "Magnificant Obsession" is my absolute most favorite song in the entire world right now, has been ever since it came out!

Hey everyone!!

Just wanted to tell y'all that tonight is the night that my DH's band opens for Jars Of Clay at Roar @ The Shore in Cleveland. At least, we are hoping they will. They are playing regardless, but there has been talk that Jars Of Clay may not play, due to some money issues of some kind. I hope they play, as I would love to see them!

 

[JC2]

Hi Sherry! Sounds like an exciting night tonight! Let us know how things go!

 

[JC2]

<Font color="deeppink">
Draw me close to You
Never let me go
I lay it all down again
To hear You say that I'm Your friend
You are my desire
No one else will do
'Cause nothing else could take the place
To feel the warmth of Your embrace
Help me find the way
Bring me back to You

You're all I want
You're all I've ever needed
You're all I want
Help me know You are near</Font>

 

[dizneenut]

OK, I was totally bummed. JOC didn't play last night!
Apparently there were money issues, and they decided not to play!
But, DH's band played and they were awesome!!
They are playing again right now. I couldn't go cuz I had to take my youngest DS to the dr.

 

[dizneenut]

This is one of my boys fave. songs right now, so thought I'd sing it!

Above All/MWS
Above all powers
Above all things
Above all nature and all created things
Above all wisdom and all the ways of man
You were here before the world began

Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders the world has ever known
Above all wealth and treasures of the earth
There's no way to measure what You're worth



Crucified
Laid behind the stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

 

[Dan Murphy]

O happy day, that fixed my choice
On Thee, my Savior and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.

Refrain

Happy day, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray, and live rejoicing every day
Happy day, happy day, when Jesus washed my sins away.

O happy bond, that seals my vows
To Him Who merits all my love!
Let cheerful anthems fill His house,
While to that sacred shrine I move.

Refrain

It’s done: the great transaction’s done!
I am the Lord’s and He is mine;
He drew me and I followed on;
Charmed to confess the voice divine.

Refrain

Now rest, my long divided heart,
Fixed on this blissful center, rest.
Here have I found a nobler part;
Here heavenly pleasures fill my breast.

Refrain

High heaven, that heard the solemn vow,
That vow renewed shall daily hear,
Till in life’s latest hour I bow
And bless in death a bond so dear.

Refrain

Sherry that is great that your husband's band played and that things went so well! And I really like <B>Above All</B> too!

Dan, what an awesome song! I love it! Thanks for singing!!

 

[Princess Michelle]

Sherry, that stinks about JOC but at least Junior's band got to play!

Great songs everyone! This is one my choir sings that I absolutely love!


All day long
I've been with Jesus
All day long
My lips have uttered praise
All day long
My heart, my soul's been
Lifted, in worship
All day long
I have been with Him

All day long
I've been with Jesus
All day long
My lips have uttered praise
All day long
My heart, my soul's been
Lifted, in worship
All day long
I have been with Him

No way could I ever
Honor You enough
For all You've done for me
I offer up thanksgiving
From my heart
And praise continually

He Covers Me/Steve Camp

Oh Lord, I feel so barren and ashamed of who I am
How I often felt I hid it well, it is a lie I cannot defend
So I lean upon Your mercy as I confess my sin to You
There is no easy way, no saving face, when I finally see the truth
So let my life be filled with only You

I know someday I will be free
The weight of sin shall be released
But for now He covers me
And though the trials never end
I've learned to take them as my friend
For each day He covers me

Sometimes the pressure builds around me and I feel about to break
I suffer painfully from wrongs done to me but vengeance isn't mine to take
So let me glory in my weakness till Your strength's revealed in me
It is Your grace alone that helps me carry on to be the man I long to be
So let Your life be perfected, Lord in me
Until it's You they see

I know someday I will be free
The weight of sin shall be released
But for now He covers me
And though the trials never end
I've learned to take them as my friend
For each day He covers me

And though heartache surrounds me
I know Your love is around me
Nothing can separate me from You
And I know it's true

I know someday I will be free
The weight of sin shall be released
But for now He covers me
And though the trials never end
I've learned to take them as my friend
For each day He covers me

Stranger to Holiness/Steve Camp

Looks like a boy's in trouble again
Living much too close to the edge of sin
Now he finds himself where he should not have been
Oh God why is Your peace so hard to find
And the answer to the questions that haunt my mind
Oh Lord, Your ways are not like mine

And it pounds like thunder within in my breast
All the anger of my humanness
And though I call You "Lord" I must confess
I'm a stranger to Your holiness, a stranger to Your holiness

Can we really be what we were meant to be
Jesus' people, living by the Spirit and living free
My heart longs to serve, but wanders so aimlessly
Oh Lord You deserve every part of me

And it pounds like thunder within in my breast
All the anger of my humanness
And though I call You "Lord" I must confess
I'm a stranger to Your holiness, a stranger to Your holiness

Hear my cry of desperation as I see the wickedness of my ways
You alone are my salvation, and Lord I've learned this one thing to be true
Is that the closer I get to You, I see I'm a stranger (to Your holiness)
Don't wanna be no stranger, and it burns like a fire...

And it pounds like thunder within in my breast
All the anger of my humanness
And though I call You "Lord" I must confess
I'm a stranger to Your holiness, a stranger to Your holiness

 

[Princess Michelle]

LOL Heather, I wonder how you knew...hmmmm...

 

[CRB#33]

How Beautiful the hands that served,
the wine and the bread and the sons of the earth.

How beautiful the feet that walked
the long dusty road and the hill to the cross.

How beautiful
How beautiful
How beautiful is the body of Christ

How beautiful the heart that bled
that took all my sin and bore it instead.

How beautiful the tender eyes
that choose to forgive and never despise.

How beautiful
How beautiful
How beautiful is the body of Christ.

And as he laid down his life
We offer this sacrifice
That we will live, just as he died
Willing to pay the price--
He was willing to pay the price.

How beautiful the radiant Bride
that waits for her Groom with his light in her eyes.

How beautiful when humble hearts give
the fruit of pure lives so that others may live

How beautiful
How beautiful
How beautiful is the body of Christ.

How beautiful the feet that bring
the sound of good news and the love of the King.

How beautiful the hands that serve
the wine and the bread and the sons of the earth.

How beautiful
How beautiful
How beautiful is the body of Christ.

Great songs Heather and CBR! I think "O Lord, You're Beautiful" is one of the most amazing worship songs ever.


In the secret, in the quiet place
In the stillness You are there
In the secret, in the quiet hour I wait, Only for You
'Cause I want to know You more

I want to know You
I want to hear Your voice
I want to know You more
I want to touch You
I want to see Your face
I want to know You more

I am reaching for the highest goal
That I might recieve the prize
Pressing onward, pushing every hindrance aside, out of my way
'Cause I want to know You more

I want to know You
I want to hear Your voice
I want to know You more
I want to touch You
I want to see Your face
I want to know You more

 

[Princess Michelle]

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 in the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and love
As we sing holy, holy, holy

holy, holy, holy
holy, holy, holy
I want to see You

 

[JC2]

These are such excellent songs, you guys! Thanks for singing!!

Holiness, holiness
Is what I long for
Holiness, is what I need
Holiness, holiness
Is what You want from me

So take my heart
And form it
Take my mind
Transform it
Take my will
Conform it
To Your's, to Your's
O Lord

 

[Princess Michelle]

In my life, Lord
Be glorified, be glorified
In my life, Lord
Be glorified, today

In my heart, Lord
Be glorified, be glorified
In my heart, Lord
Be glorified, today

In my praise, Lord
Be glorified, be glorified
In my praise, Lord
Be glorified, today

In my words, Lord
Be glorified, be glorified
In my words, Lord
Be glorified, today

Impossible/Geoff Moore

Take me to a cause
That seems already lost
Where the outlook is grim
Because the odds are too great
And the chances so slim

When the wall seems unclimbable
And the sea uncrossable
The mountain unmovable
Our God does the impossible

Come taste and find
The water’s turned to wine
And see the truth through the eyes
The eyes that once were blind

When the wall seems unclimbable
And the sea uncrossable
The mountain unmovable
Our God does the impossible

Come walk on the sea
In the wonder and mystery
No mind has conceived
No eye has seen and no ear has ever heard

When the wall seems unclimbable
And the sea uncrossable
The mountain unmovable
Our God does the impossible
