Spirit of Jesus

The Spirit of Jesus lives in me 

So in him, I will abide

He is the truth that set me free

So in Jesus, I will confide

So on my Christ I shall depend

Living by grace that has no end

Abiding with my constant friend

Here by his Spirit’s power

The Spirit of Jesus lives in me

So my life is not my own

It is not I, but Christ you see

So I will never be alone

So on my Christ I shall depend

Living by grace that has no end

Abiding with my constant friend

Here by his Spirit’s power

The Spirit of Jesus lives in me 

This is where my faith comes from

Though sin remains the enemy

In Jesus I shall overcome

So on my Christ I shall depend

Living by grace that has no end

Abiding with my constant friend

Here by his Spirit’s power

Slumber Song

Now the night is drawing nigh;

shadows steal across the sky.

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray the Lord my soul to keep;

I lay me down and all is well

In peace and safety now to dwell

If I should die before I wake,

I pray the Lord my soul to take.

Now I lay me down to sleep,

I pray the Lord my soul to keep;

Angels watch me through the night,

And wake me with the morning light.

If I should live for other days, 

I pray the Lord to guide my ways

When morning dawns may I arise

Pure and holy in your eyes.

Psalm 4:8

If God Be For Us

If God be for us, who can stand against us?

He will provide the strength to bear our cross

We take it up and follow Him who we trust

Faithful and true he repays every loss

Hope in the Lord, my soul and then be still

Come rest in Him- your very heart He'll fill

He leads us onward through our wildernesses

Kept in his care, in him we shall abide

It gives him joy to guide us and to bless us

Beneath his wings we shelter there to hide

Oh Lion of Judah, shepherd and sustain

Through every trial his mercies shall attain

Now mystery and doubt may overtake us

In Christ all we who persevere shall stand

Through shadows dim the darkness shall not shake us

No power on earth can take us from his hand

He holds our future as he has the past

All he has promised is Amen at last

When comes the day, the day of his returning

Our Christ shall judge the living and the dead

Then we shall see the one for whom we’re yearning

The bridegroom’s advent when we shall be wed

Forevermore his glory we shall see

Alive in him for all eternity.

I Need to Pray

Oh Lord, I feel the need to pray

I feel it each and every day

Every minute every hour

I will claim this gracious power

My Heav’nly Father I'll address 

My sins and evils to confess

I know my prayer He shall hear

He will delight to draw me near

Oh Lord, my God, to you  I pray

Not just for blessings to bestow

But in your presence here to stay

And that your glory I might know

You speak to me within your word

And I confess what I have heard

Thy kingdom come, your will be done

That your heart and mine shall be one

As I adore you and confess

You turne my heart to righteousness

I’ll give you thanks for your supply

Here in this life, and when I die

Oh Lord, my God, to you  I pray

Not just for blessings to bestow

But in your presence here to stay

And that your glory I might know

Lord in your presence, I would stay

So that your glory I might show

God’s Raging Grace

There’s a light within the darkness

There’s a hope there in the night

Devastating in it’s starkness

It’s the glory of the light

That has come so walk within it

Come and let us run the race

You’ve no power to begin it

It’s all of God’s raging Grace

We can tell it to our children 

How it overtook our souls 

We will shout it by the millions

How the Lord God made us whole

Each and every generation

Has the same prevailing need

And no matter what their station

Sinners still need to be freed

Bridge

Overwhelming and wild

To divine love we are reconciled

Unstoppable forgiveness

This is what we confess

Send the light into the nations 

For the story must be told

Come and join the celebration

Of a new life, strange and bold

For He meets you in your sorrow

Come and seek to know his face

All your ways and your tomorrow’s

Authored by the God of raging Grace

Come to Jesus

 

Are you weary and heavy laden?

Are you burdened and oppressed?

Are your expectations fading?

Come to Jesus and find rest

Are you vexed by your behavior?

Your soul, downcast and depressed?

Cast your burdens on the Savior

Come to Jesus and find rest

If you’re hungry in your spirit

If you’re thirsty in your soul

Heed the call if you will hear it

Come to Christ and be made whole 

Are you overwhelmed by trouble?

Are your sins left unconfessed,

Broken in your old man’s rubble?

Come to Jesus and find rest

Are you tired and oh so lonely-

The world‘s a trial and a test?

Jesus’ heart's gentle and lowly

Come to Jesus and be blessed

If you’re hungry in your spirit

If you’re thirsty in your soul

Heed the call if you will hear it

Come to Christ and be made whole 

Rest from all your burden bearing

Rest from your self-righteousness

If you’re doubting and despairing 

Come to Jesus and find rest

Leave your woes and your wayfaring

Come to Jesus and be blessed

Come to Jesus and find rest

Everlasting Father

O my everlasting Father
I am your little child
Since you called me to believe
I am saved and reconciled
You offer constant care
You are my source and guide
Held fast forever in your love
This is where I will abide

You are purposeful and patient

You encourage and promote

You are forever present

When all others are remote

Your wisdom is so practical

You protect me and provide

Oh my everlasting Father

Beneath your wings I hide

O my everlasting Father

I will give to you

The obedience of faith

And the honor that is due

In your arms are my security

I am safe in your embrace

You will not forsake me

No matter what I face

O my everlasting Father

I am your little child

Since you called me to believe

I am saved and reconciled

You offer constant care

You are my source and guide

Held fast forever in your love

This is where I will abide
