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 your place
To feel the warmth of your embrace
Help me find the way
Jesus 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

O Jesus, help me know You are near</Font>

Oh when I think
That God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin

Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art</Font>

[Otto's Doll]

Great songs, Fur!

To God be the glory, great things He has done;
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.

O perfect redemption, the purchase of blood,
To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offender who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus a pardon receives.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done.

Great things He has taught us, great things He has done,
And great our rejoicing through Jesus the Son;
But purer, and higher, and greater will be
Our wonder, our transport, when Jesus we see.

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father, through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory, great things He has done

Hi Tash and Jeanne!

Another great hymn, Jeanne! Thank you for singing it.

 

[Otto's Doll]

How blessed we are to have each other, guys, and how blessed to be able to sing to our Father!

THANK YOU JESUS!

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path;
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

When I feel afraid, think I've lost my way
Still You're there right beside me
And nothing will I fear,
As long as You are near
Please be near me to the end.

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path;
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

I will not forget Your love for me and yet
My heart forever is wandering
Jesus be my guide,
Hold me to your side
And I will love You to the end.

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path;
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.

Nothing will I fear,
As long as You are near.
Please be with me 'til the end.

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path,
And a light unto my path,
You're the Light unto my path.

I sooo agree! I do not take this privilege for granted. I am so thankful!

 

[JC2]

Shout to the Lord
All the earth, let us sing
Power and majesty
Praise to the King
Mountains bow down
And the seas will roar
At the sound of Your name
I sing for joy at the work of Your hands
Forever I'll love You
Forever I'll stand
Nothing compares to the promise I have in You!!

 

[Otto's Doll]

AMEN!

 

[JC2]

Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy.
How awesome is the Lord Most High, the great King over all the earth!
Psalm 47:1-2

 

[sm4987]

Doing a little bible study. Thought everyone would enjoy this

Psalms 27

Verse 1. The Lord is my light and my salvation ] This light can never be extinguished by man; the Lord is my salvation, my safeguard, my shield, and my defense; of whom then should I be afraid?

Verse 2. When the wicked-came upon me ] Near as I appeared to you to be in danger of losing my life, I was safe enough in the hands of the Lord; and those who thought to have eaten me up, stumbled, failed of their purpose and fell; the Philistine lost his own life.

Verse 3. Though a host should encamp against me ] I am so confident of the Almighty's protection, that were I alone, and encompassed by a host, I would not fear. I am in the hand of God; and while in that hand, I am safe.

Verse 4. One thing have I desired ] If I am grown too old, and from that circumstance unable to serve my country, I shall then prefer a retirement to the tabernacle, there to serve God the rest of my days. There I shall behold his glory, and there I may inquire and get important answers respecting Israel.

But though these words may be thus interpreted, on the above supposition, that David penned the Psalm on the occasion of his escape from the Philistine, and the desire expressed by his subjects that he should go no more out to war; yet it appears that they more naturally belong to the captivity, and that this verse especially shows the earnest longing of the captives to return to their own land, that they might enjoy the benefit of Divine worship.

Verse 5. He shall hide me in his pavilion ] hksb besuccoh, in his tabernacle. I would make his temple my residence; I would dwell with God, and be in continual safety. Pavilion comes from papilio and papiliwn, a butterfly. It signifies a tent made of cloth stretched out on poles, which in form resembles in some measure the insect above named.

In the secret of his tabernacle ] Were there no other place, he would put me in the holy of holies, so that an enemy would not dare to approach me.

He shall set me upon a rock. ] He shall so strengthen and establish me, that my enemies shall not be able to prevail against me. He shall hide me where they cannot find me, or put me out of the reach of the fiery darts of the wicked. He who lives nearest to God suffers least from temptation.

"Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to thee: resist the devil and he will flee from thee."

Verse 6. Now shall mine head be lifted up ] We shall most assuredly be redeemed from this captivity, and restored to our own land, and to the worship of our God in his own temple. There shall we offer sacrifices of joy; we will sing praises unto the Lord, and acknowledge that it is by his might and mercy alone that we have been delivered.

LORD, I GIVE YOU ME

Lord I give You me
I give You my all
I hold nothing back
I'm answering Your call
Though I live or die
Your glory is my life
I give You everything

Lord, I give You me
Lord, I give You me

Lord I give You me
it may not look like much
I know that I need change
I know I need Your touch
Take me as I am
place me in your plan
That's where I want to be

Lord I give You me
Lord with every breath
I'll worship You in life,
I'll worship You in death
I lay down my heart
it's all I have to give
As long as I may live

Lord, I give You me
Lord, I give You me
Lord, I give You me
Lord, I give You me

You sent Your son to save me
And I believe it's ture
And now this life You gave me
I give it back to You

Great study, Sheree'! I thoroughly enjoyed reading it this morning!

Fur, Jeanne, Sarah, wonderful songs, thoughts and scriptures!

The verses Sheree' posted made me think of this song, it's one of my favorites right now.


Praise Ye the Lord
All ye servants of the Lord
Which by night stand in the house
Of the Lord

Praise Ye the Lord
All ye servants of the Lord
Which by night stand in the house
Of the Lord

Lift up your hands!
Lift up your hands all ye people
Lift up your hands
And praise the Lord

Lift up your hands!
Lift up your hands all ye people
Lift up your hands
And praise the Lord

The Lord is my light
And my salvation
Whom then shall I fear
Shall I be afraid?

The Lord is my light
And my salvation
Whom then shall I fear
Shall I be afraid?

"Thy mercy, O Lord, is in Thy heavens." Psalms 36:5

I think some of your stars have even winked at me before.

 

[Hemi-mom]

How deep the Father's love for us,
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure

How great the pain of searing loss,
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the chosen One,
Bring many sons to glory


Behold the Man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice,
Call out among the scoffers

It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished


I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

 

[Hemi-mom]

Michelle, that song you posted reminded me of this one!

Praise Ye the Lord/PETRA
Words and music by Greg X. Volz

Praise ye the Lord all ye nations
The Lord is reigning, you people rejoice
The Word of the Lord is a two-edged sword
He's placed it in our hands

Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord
Praise ye the Lord forever

The word of the Lord shall endure forever and ever
His merciful kindness is great toward us
Is with us to the end

Now let us go on to perfection
Leaving behind the old carnal mind
Press toward the mark of the high call of God
Which is the fullness of Christ

Praise the Lord for His mercy
Praise the Lord for His love
His everlasting love
Praise the Lord for His kindness
Praise the Lord for His Son

Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord forever

 

[JC2]

<Font color="darkblue">
Welcome into this place
Welcome into this broken vessel
You desire to abide in the praises of Your people
So we lift our hands
And we lift our hearts
As we offer up this praise into Your name</Font>

My 1000th post!

I have journeyed
Through the long dark night
Out on the open sea
By faith alone
Sight unknown
And yet His eyes were watching me

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

I’ve had visions
I’ve had dreams
I’ve even held them in my hand
But I never knew
They would slip right through
Like they were only grains of sand

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

I have been young
But I am older now
And there has been beauty these eyes have seen
But it was in the night
Through the storms of my life
Oh, that’s where God proved
His love to me

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn
I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

 

[Princess Michelle]

Jill, the song you posted made me think of this one. LOL Of course, there is no connection in the lyrics, just got me to thinking about the old days of Petra when Greg was the lead vocalist.

Without Him We Can Do Nothing/Petra

How can, how can we who are dead to sin
Live any longer therein?
We've been, we have been called and loved and forgiven
Our old life is forgotten

Do you remember what He's called you out of?
Do you remember where you were?
Let us not take advantage of His love
That we forget that we have been forgiven
Without Him we can do nothing

I know, I know where I was when He found me
With so much confusion around me
He's been, He has been all that we would let Him
Without Him we can do nothing

Do you remember what He's called you out of?
Do you remember where you were?
Let us not take advantage of His love
That we forget that we have been forgiven
Without Him we can do nothing

 

[Princess Michelle]

Jeanne, I love that song! Congratulations on 1,000 super duper posties!!!
