[JC2]

You spread out the skies over empty space
Said, let there be light
To a dark and formless world
Your light was born
You spread out your arms over empty hearts
Said, let there be light
To a dark and hopeless world
Your Son was born

You made the world and saw that it was good
You sent Your only Son, for You are good

What a wonderful Maker
What a wonderful Savior
How majestic Your whispers
And how humble Your love
With a strength like no other
And the heart of a father
How majestic Your whispers
What a wonderful God

No eye has fully seen how beautiful the cross
And we have only heard the faintest whispers
Of how great You are

You made the world and saw that it was good
You sent Your only Son, for You are good

What a wonderful Maker
What a wonderful Savior
How majestic Your whispers
And how humble Your love
With a strength like no other
And the heart of a father
How majestic Your whispers
What a wonderful God

You made the world and saw that it was good
You sent Your only Son, for You are good

What a wonderful Maker
What a wonderful Savior
How majestic Your whispers
And how humble Your love
With a strength like no other
And the heart of a father
How majestic Your whispers
What a wonderful God

How majestic Your whispers
what a wonderful God

 

[JC2]

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

JC2, it is great to see you! I have missed you. The words to the second song you posted are beautiful, but I am not familiar with it. Who sings it?

 

[Otto's Doll]

Hi Fur! Great to see you.


Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You

I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You

I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

 

[Otto's Doll]

You are the source of the life
I can't be left behind
No one else will do
I will lay hold of You
I need You Jesus
To come to my rescue
Where else can I go
There's no other name by
Which I am saved
Capture me with grace
I will follow You
This world has nothing for me
I will follow You
This world has nothing for me
I will follow You

 

[Otto's Doll]

I don't know how to say exactly how I feel
And I can't begin to tell you what your love has meant
I'm lost for words
Is there a way to show the passion in my heart
Can I express how truly great I think you are
My dearest friend
Lord, this is my desire
To pour my love on You

Chorus:
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on you
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on you
Till every drop is gone
I'll pour my love on you

Verse 2:
Is there a way to show the passion in my heart
Can I express how truly great I think you are
My dearest friend
Lord, this is my desire
To pour my love on you

Chorus:
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on you
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on you
Till every drop is gone
I'll pour my love on you

Chorus:
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on you
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on you
Till every drop is gone

Pour my love on you
Yeah

Chorus:
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on you
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on you
Till every drop is gone

Chorus:
Like oil upon your feet
Like wine for you to drink
Like water from my heart
I pour my love on you
If praise is like perfume
I'll lavish mine on you
Till every drop is gone
I'll pour my love on you

Pour my love on you
Yeah, yeah

Thanks, you guys, for the great songs!

Cristy, I hope it was a sunny, nice day for your son's party.

Jill, Be Your Everything has such life in it! Thanks for posting that song.

It's always good to see everybody here. I pray that you all stay encouraged in Jesus.

Thanks! We had a great day! It was overcast but that was a good thing as it kept it from being too hot. The rain didn't come until late that evening after we were home. We had a great time at the zoo (snake handling and all).

Hope everyone else had a good weekend.

Keep all these great songs coming!

Phillips, Craig, & Dean - Restoration

Galations 6:1-3 (KJV)
Looking at this falling race
Standing in the light of grace
We can't see the shadow of the past
Building our security
Truth lost its identity
But there's still time for us to get it back
If we sing hey now, hey now
And take some time for self examination
Say hey now, hey now
We need to be baptized in salvation

CHORUS:
If we sing hey now, hey now
What we need is restoration
Hey now, hey now
What we really need is restoration

Twisted in this awful mess
Swimming in our own success
Watching as the truth just fades away
It's time to put our faith to test
Let our souls be undressed
And show the world we mean what we say

CHORUS

Staring somewhere into space
Hoping to find some saving grace
I flet a tug within my heart
You roll the stone, pull me apart
Your light illuminates the dark
And makes my voice cry out loud

CHORUS

 

[Hemi-mom]

Christy, so glad your party went well!


REST/ Big Daddy Weave

To all who are weary and those who are heavy laden
Lay at the feet of the one who loves you best
Bring all of your trials and all of your tribulation
Come unto me and I will give you rest

I will give you rest

Take my yoke upon you
Come and learn from me
For I am humble in spirit and so you must also be
Lo I will be with you in the midst of every test
If you run unto me, I will give you rest

I will give you rest

 

[live4christp1]

HI Everyone!
Hope your week is going well!

Sing to Jesus

Come and see, look on this mystery
The Lord of the Universe, nailed to a tree
Christ our God, spilling His Holy blood
Bowing in anguish, His sacred head

Sing to Jesus, Lord of our shame
Lord of our sinful hearts.
He is our great Redeemer.
Sing to Jesus, Honor His name.
Sing of His faithfulness, pouring His life out unto death

Come you weary and He will give you rest
Come you who mourn, lay on His breast
Christ who died, risen in Paradise
Giver of mercy, Giver of Life

Sing to Jesus His is the throne
Now and forever,
He is the King of Heaven.
Sing to Jesus, we are His own.
Now and forever sing for the love our God has shown.

Posting this for a friend from another thread! (I really like this song too)



Stomp - Kirk Franklin & God's Property

Lately I've been going through some things
That's really got me down
I need someone, somebody to help me come and
Turn my life around
I can't explain it
I can't obtain it
Jesus Your love is so,
It's so amazing
It gets me high, up to the sky and when
I think about Your goodness it makes me wanna
Stomp
makes me clap my hands
makes me wanna dance and Stomp
my brother can't you see I've got the victory
Stomp!

Oh, oh, oh, oh, Stomp on the enemy 'cause I've got the victory
Stomp on the enemy 'cause I've got the victory

 

[live4christp1]

Praising the Lord with some blood pumping, heart thumping music this morning!

Revive Us - Annointed (This group is great in concert!)

Ready or not change is comin'
Can you feel the spirit risin' in you
Has it been awhile
Since you've felt the fire and passion and joy anew
Are you ready for a revelation?
We all know that there is so much more
We're in need of His inspiration
Can't wait another day
Gotta have it right away

CHORUS:
Revive us again
Revive us again
Restore the joy of our salvation
Revive us again
Revive us again
Renew life within
Revive us, ooooh

Love is alive and exciting
If we only let it take control
Drink from the fountain, it's so inviting
It will strengthen and refresh your soul
Nothing can stop this revolution
When we're determined to see it through
If we believe that there is one solution
You know His name is Jesus
He is the one to free us

CHORUS

Lord we need You to revive us
Let it not just begin
But let it just go on and on and never come to an end

 

[live4christp1]

Have a great weekend everyone!

True Vibe - I Live For You

I was lost in darkness
Never knowing where to turn
I thought I had all the answers
But I had so much to learn
Like a child I had gone astray
Trying to make it on my own
Like a father You embraced me
And You showed the way back home Now that I know the truth that you proclaim
I will keep trusting You to fill me up ‘til only You remain
And I will not rest until my every word brings glory to Your name
With all that I am, all that I do, I live for You Only You could save me
From the debt I had to pay
So now I want to tell the world
The difference You have made
You have changed the way I live and love
And made my heart brand new
Now that we are joined together
I know I’m nothing without You

 

[Otto's Doll]

This song has been on my mind all day!

by Matthew West
album: Happy (2003)
Take a look at the mountains
Stretching a mile high
Take a look at the ocean
Far as your eye can see
And think of Me

Take a look at the desert
Do you feel like a grain of sand?
I am with you wherever
Where you go is where I am

And I'm always thinking of you
Take a look around you
I'm spelling it out one by one

(Chorus)
I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I'll say it again and again
I love you more

Just a face in the city
Just a tear on a crowded street
But you are one in a million
And you belong to Me

And I want you to know
That I'm not letting go
Even when you come undone

(Chorus)
I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I'll say it again and again
I love you more
I love you more

Shine for Me
Shine for Me
Shine on, shine on
Shine for Me

(Chorus)
I love you more than the sun
And the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you yesterday and today
And tomorrow, I'll say it again and again
I love you more

(Chorus)
Than the sun
and the stars that I taught how to shine
You are mine, and you shine for me too
I love you, yesterday and today
Through the joy and the pain
I'll say it again and again
I love you more
I love you more

And I see you
And I made you
And I love you more than you can imagine
More than you can fathom
I love you more than the sun
And you shine for me

What a beautiful song Jeanne, thanks for posting that. I love his song "Next Thing You Know" but I can't find the lyrics anywhere.

Have a great day everyone!

Screen Door - Rich Mullins

It's about as useless as
A screen door on a submarine
Faith without works baby
It just ain't happenin'
One is your left hand
One is your right
It'll take two strong arms
To hold on tight
Some folks cut off their nose
Just to spite their face
I think you need some works to show
For your alleged faith

Well there's a difference you know
B'tween having faith and playing make believe
One will make you grow
The other one just make you sleep
Talk about it
But I really think you oughtta
Take a leap off of the ship
Before you claim to walk on water
Faith without works is like a song you can't sing
It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine

Faith comes from God
And every word that He breathes
He lets you take it to your heart
So you can give it hands and feet
It's gotta be active if it's gonna be alive
You gotta put it into practice
Otherwise....

It's about as useless as a screen door
On a submarine
Faith without works, baby
It just ain't happenin'
One is your right hand, one is your left
It's your light, your guide
Your life and your breath

Faith without works is like a song you can't sing
It's about as useless as a screen door
On a submarine

Rich Mullins - We Are Not As Strong As We Think We Are

Well, it took the hand of God Almighty
To part the waters of the sea
But it only took one little lie
To separate you and me
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are

And they say that one day Joshua
Made the sun stand still in the sky
But I can't even keep these thoughts
Of you from passing by
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are

CHORUS
We are frail
We are fearfully and wonderfully made
Forged in the fires of human passion
Choking on the fumes of selfish rage
And with these our hells and our heavens
So few inches apart
We must be awfully small
And not as strong as we think we are

And the Master said their faith was
Gonna make them mountains move
But me, I tremble like a hill on a fault line
Just at the thought of how I lost you
Oh, we are not as strong as we think we are

CHORUS

And if you make me laugh well I know
I could make you like me
Cause when I laugh I can be a lot of fun
But we can't do that I know that it is frightening
What I don't know is why we can't hold on
We can't hold on

CHORUS

When you love you walk on the water
Just don't stumble on the waves
We all want to go there somethin' awful
But to stand there it takes some grace
'Cause oh, we are not as strong
As we think we are

 

[Dan Murphy]

Great to see you again, Jennifer.

 

[pogopossum]

howdy everybody.

if i was Jesus, i'd have some real long hair
a robe and some sandals, is exactly what i'd wear
i'd be the guy at the party turning water to wine
yeah, me and my disciples, we'd have a real good time

oooh and i'd lay my life down for you
yeah, i'd show you who's the boss
i'd forgive you and adore you
while i was hanging on your cross

if i was Jesus, i'd have some friends that were poor
i'd run around with the wrong crowd
man i'd never be bored
then i'd heal me a blind man, get myself crucified
by politicians and preachers, who got something to hide

oooh and i'd lay my life down for you
yeah, i'd show you who's the boss
i'd forgive you and adore you
while i was hanging on your cross
if i was Jesus

if i was Jesus, i'd come back from the dead
and i'd walk on some water, just to mess with your head
i know your dark little secrets, i'd look you right in the face
and tell you i love you with amazing grace

oooh and i'd lay my life down for you
yeah, i'd show you who's the boss
i'd forgive you and adore you
while i was hanging on your cross
if i was jesus, if i was jesus

-toby keith-
to the tune of if i was Jesus

revisited this one while mowing the lawn today and wanted to share it with ya'll

 

[zen1]

Hi everyone! I tryed posting something on here the other day, but it would not let me post it, go figure...

Well one year ago today I was at one of my really good friends doing a Bible Study with her( and we still do this) and at the end of our Bible Study she always says a special prayer for me and some other things as well. Well at the end of her prayer I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior! So today is my 1st birthday in Jesus, I guess you could say! And I just want to thank Jesus for always being there for me and always, always loving me. Our God is an AWESOME GOD!!!!!!!!!!

 

[zen1]

Some songs to lift Jesus name on HIGH~


Your love is extravagant
Your friendship, it is intimate
I feel like moving to the rhythm of Your grace
Your fragrance is intoxicating in our secret place
Your love is extravagant

Chorus:
Spread wide in the arms of Christ is the love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known You considered me a friend
Capture my heart again

Spread wide in the arms of Christ is the love that covers sin
No greater love have I ever known; You considered me a friend

Capture my heart again
Your love is extravagant
Your friendship, it is intimate
