the stone of help

thank You for a new vision! This is why and what were here for, this is what we'll be...

"For we do not preach ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord...For God, He said "Let light shine out of darkess", made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ" 2cor4:5

"For He says,"In the time of favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you"" 2cor6:1

"Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen. He named it Ebenezer saying, "Thus far has the Lord helped us"" 1samuel7:12


V1
For You said, "let my light shine in your hearts
Do not receive my grace in vein, free them from their pain"

For You said "In the day of your salvation
You received my intervention, so will you release revelation"

So I'll place this stone between the lands
I'll place this stone for all to see
That Thus Far has the Lord Helped Me!
And forevermore, forevermore...

Chorus
This is the light
This is the light im shining
You cant put it out
For this light, is everlasting

This is the heart
This is my heart that beats for You
Every breath I gain
Acknowledging the God who reigns

V2
O Lord, what you redeemed we will reclaim
In Your mighty name, we'll seek and save what was lost

This day, were gonna break the trend
Were gonna make a stand, O Lord the victory is Yours

Ill raise this stone over the land
Ill raise this stone for all to see
That Thus far has the Lord helped me!
And forever more, forever more...

Bridge
A greater blessing ahead of us
A greater blessing than the past
O thus far has the Lord helped us!
And forever more, forever more...

ALL-GOD

How much is too much to give You Lord? There is simply no answer to this question for nothing is ours to give anyway. Like David said in the bible "But who am I, that I should be able to give as generously as this? Everything comes from You, and we have given You only what comes from your hand"

God, today I acknowledge You for everything; my life, my redemption, my family, my friends, my relationships, my school/work, my music, everything I hold dear, the things that matter so to me, EVERYTHING. For can I thank You enough?I think not. Can I speak of You too much? Absolutely not. God...It is ALL-YOU...my every single breath, it is only so cos You have given them to me


Something good is going to happen, something good is in store...(:

When my eyes see only You

Title: Today as I worship

V1
Take this time to mend your broken soul
Take this time to spend with Me alone
Put away distractions and the memories of a past
Cos here you are in my courts again at last

Today cast away all your worries
Cos right here in my presence you are free
Here you stand redeemed, bought back by my mercy
But its been far too long since I heard you say to me...

"Father I know its by your grace im in this place
And today everything thats of me will erase...

Chorus
Today as I worship You, nothing else matters
Today as I lift my voice, everything fades away
Today as I close my eyes, the crowd around me disappears
Cos today its just me and You, and its all about You...

V2
I wont care of the eyes that are watching me
Cos my eyes are fixed on You and You only
This moment reach inside into the depths of my heart
And take away everything that will keep us apart

Right now I place aside my every crown
All success that Ive had I lay them down
Cos a heart that is broken, You will not despise
A heart thats true to worship, is pleasing in Your sight

Father I know its by Your grace im in this place
This day let me meet You face to face...

Chorus
Today as I worship You, nothing else matters

Today as I lift my voice, everything fades away
Today as I close my eyes, the crowd around me disappears
Cos today its just me and You, and its all about You..."

if only

V1
Just a little child confused by worldly ways
Just a bitter soul, too bitter for your age
Like a ripple you so easily drift away
Yet still hopeful, youthful in your days

O forgive me, for looking down on you
Cos youre closer to Him then I ever thought I knew
Help me, help me see right through
Let me dare to see and let my doubts be few


When you questioned, for some direction
In the only way you knew how to..
When you asked me, what was salvation?
I looked in awe, I stared into my reflection

Chorus
If only you knew, If only you knew
The depth, the depth of what it meant
If only you could understand
If only you could feel His hand
Working through me
Just reaching out to you..

V2
O what a mystery, what a mystery
How youre a stranger yet you mean so much to me
How i need you to know Him desperately
How I need you to see and to believe


When you questioned, of contentment
How this place could offer you satisfaction
When I answered, I hoped you listened
And took one step, a step closer to the kingdom

Bridge
And everytime I close my eyes
I picture you, youre by my side
You lift your hand up to the sky
Singing 'Glory, Glory on high'

And evertime I visualize
O how lovely, what a precious sight
See you right before my eyes
Singing 'Glory, Glory on high'



Reprise
Hosanna, Hosanna in the Highest
the date is right! FINALLY

Conversations with the King

I wrote this quite some time ago, its a song that means a lot to me. The lyrics are simple, a conversation with my heavenly father. The song is very personal to me and never fails to move me each time i sing it to God

V1
"Son, look up at the sky
Do you see the Heavens
Right before your eyes?

Son, I need you to know
That I gave it all up
Just so I could hold you once again"

What grace could this be?
Did you really come and die for me?

C
My Jesus, Papa
Youre the best thing thats happened to me
And im wondering, what it would have been
What my life would be, without Your love
Abba Father
Set the stars in the universe
Yet You bought me and gave my life worth
The God of mercy, saved the day
The God of grace, my life is grace

V2
Papa, when You created it all
Did you see it coming?
Did you see your fall?

Did you glance
Into the future
Where we turned against you
Where you paid it all

What grace could this be?
Did you really come and die for me

C
My Jesus, Papa
Youre the best thing thats happened to me
And im wondering, what it would have been
What my life would be, without Your love
Abba Father
Set the stars in the universe
Yet You bought me and gave my life worth
The God of mercy, saved the day
The God of grace, my life is grace

"Son, I love you
O how much you matter to me
Dont need to question
My Love for you
Dont need to fear
Cos I am here..."
