[Saphire]

Welcome, Ron!

God is my refuge, and God is my strength;
A very present help in trouble.
God is my refuge, and God is my strength;
A very present help in trouble.

Therefore I will not fear
though the earth be removed
and though the mountains be carried
into the midst of the sea.

 

[Hemi-mom]

WOOOOHOOO!! I really need to hear some of his stuff!

 

[Hemi-mom]

I lift my eyes up to the mountains
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from You
Maker of heaven, Creator of the earth

Oh how I need You Lord!
You are my only hope
You're my only prayer
So I will wait for You to come and rescue me
Come and give me life!

 

[JC2]

Come Holy Spirit, I need You
Come sweet Spirit I pray
Come in Your strength and Your power
Come in Your own gentle way

Come Holy Spirit, I need You
Come sweet Spirit I pray
Come in Your strength and Your power
Come in Your own gentle way

 

[JC2]

Think of all the times you've fallen victim
All the restless nights you've wrestled through
The closest of your friends abandoned, helpless
They're reaching but they're just not reaching you
You hold no valid thoughts of consolation
The future holds no interest, no concern
The world you love is closing in around you
Clearly now there's nowhere left to turn

Blessed are the tears that fall
Clean the windows of the soul
And usher in a change of heart
And bring a joy that angels know

The time has come to share your well-kept secrets
The hatred and guilt degrading you
I'm sure you blame yourself for all that's happened
This time there's just no way that it's true
You need to know you've got a friend in Jesus
You need to know he felt rejected too
Humiliating pain and unjust treatment
He's been there so he knows what you've been through

Blessed are the tears that fall
Clean the windows of the soul
And usher in a change of heart
And bring a joy that angels know

Blessed are the tears that fall
Wash the stains of life away
Forgiven and forgotten now
A new creation's here to stay

And God will send a merciful Peacemaker
Comforter of all of those who mourn
We'll become the pure in heart, the earthly meek
Enduring misdirected scorn

Blessed are the tears that fall
Clean the windows of the soul
And usher in a change of heart
And bring a joy that angels know

Blessed are the tears that fall
Wash the stains of life away
Forgiven and forgotten now
A new creation's here to stay

Blessed are the tears that fall

Thank you for this scripture, Jill</Font>

 

[JC2]

<Font color="deeppink">
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>

Melodies from Heaven
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
Melodies from Heaven
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
Take me in your arms and hold me close
Rain down on me
Rain down on me
Take me in your arms and hold me close
rain down on me
rain down on me

This song is from the Kirk Franklin CD Whatca Looking 4 (1994) JC2 this song got me through a rough time in my life. Evry time i listen to this song I Cry. Its a great song to sing.

 

[Hemi-mom]

"Yet this I call to mind and therfore I have hope: Because of the Lord's great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. I say to myself, 'The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him.'"

Jesus, Lover of my soul
All consuming fire is in Your gaze
Jesus, I want You to know
I will follow You all my days
For no one else in history is like You
And history itself belongs to You
Alpha and Omega You have loved me
And I will spend eternity with You

It's all about You Jesus
And all this is for You
For Your glory and Your fame
It's not about me
As if I should do things my way
You alone are God
And I surrender to Your way</Font>

 

[JC2]

Hear these praises from a grateful heart
Each time I think of You the praises start
I love You so much, Jesus
Love You so much

Lord I love you, my soul sings
In Your presence carried on Your wings
I love You so much, Jesus
Love You so much

How my soul longs for You
Longs to worship You forever
In Your power and majesty
Lift my hands
Lift my heart
Lift my voice toward the heavens
For You are my sun and shield

Hear these praises from a grateful heart
Each time I think of You the praises start
I love You so much, Jesus
Love You so much

I love You so much, Jesus
Love You so much

 

[CRB#33]

Above all powers
Above all kings
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 treasure of the earth
There's no way to measure what You're worth

Crucified
Laid behind a 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

 

[JC2]

CRB, I love that song! It is positively one of my all time favorites!

 

[JC2]

You know, I was just thinking about the words to that song.
<Font color="deeppink">You took the fall and thought of me, above all</Font>
Jesus literally "took the fall" for us all. It is so easy to say about a certain situation "Don't look at me - I didn't do it" or "Don't blame me" or "It's not my fault", etc. But Jesus said "everything they ever did, Father, I am willing to take the punishment for - so that they can be forgiven". Wow! What an awesome Savior! I don't ever want to lose the awe of what He did for me.

 

[CRB#33]

It still gives me chills Jennifer!


"Rejected and alone...Like a rose...trampled on the ground.."

Goosebumps everywhere. What an awesome gift.

Raining On The Inside/Amy Grant

When all goodbyes are said and done.
And nighttime finds you home,
Are you alright to spend a night
Of being all alone
Or do you hide between the lines
Of conversations past
A wall of words, a heart unheard.
That hides behind a mask.

I'm raining on the inside
My heart wells up with tears that start to pour.
I'm raining on the inside.
But Your cries of love break through
And I fall in love with You once more.

When friends who care can't be there
To ease away my pain,
And peace of mind is hard to find
Like sunlight in the rain,
God sees my heart, the deepest part
Inside this lonely me
And reachin' in, His love begins
To heal the heart in me.

I'm raining on the inside
My heart wells up with tears that start to pour.
I'm raining on the inside.
But Your cries of love break through
And I fall in love with You once more.

Friend Of A Wounded Heart/Wayne Watson


Smile, make them think you're happy
Lie, and say that things are fine.
And hide that empty longing that you feel
Don't ever show it, just keep your heart concealed.

Why are the days so lonely?
I wonder where, where can a heart go free?
And who will dry the tears that no one sees?
There must be someone to share your silent dreams.

Caught like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend, where can you turn?
Whisper the words of a prayer
And you'll find Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes.

Jesus, He meets you where you are.
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars
All the love you're longing for is Jesus
The friend of a wounded heart.

Joy, comes like the the morning
Hope, deepens as you grow
and peace, beyond the reaches of your soul,
Comes blowing through you, for love has made you whole.

Once like a leaf in the wind
Looking for a friend, where could you turn?
You spoke the words of a prayer
And you found Him there, arms open wide, love in His eyes.

Jesus, He meets you where you are.
Oh, Jesus, He heals your secret scars
All the love you're longing for is Jesus
The friend of a wounded heart.

Lover Of My Soul/Amy Grant

When I see the winter turning into spring
It speaks to this heart of mine
More than anything
Underneath a blanket of snow, cold and white
Something is stirring in the still of the night

And then the sun comes up, slowly with the dawn
This is the kind of feeling
That I hang my hope upon
There is a love and beauty in all that I see
And no one, nobody is explaining you to me

And maybe my eyes can't see
But you are surrounding me
Here in the wind and rain
The things that I know
Tender and sweet
And strong as my need
I know the voice, I know the touch
Lover of my soul

And when the evening comes, the sunlight fades to red
And time and time and time again
I whisper in my head
Give me strength, give me faith, to fully believe
That the maker of this whole, wide world
Is a Father to me

And maybe my eyes can't see
But you are surrounding me
Here in the wind and rain
The things that I know
Tender and sweet
And strong as my need
I know the voice, I know the touch
Lover of my soul
