POEMS AND LYRICS
BY GLENN PEASE
1. AS WE PRAISE YOUR NAME
Adoration now we render,
To your sov’reign pow’r surrender,
Let us see you in your splendor,
As we praise, as we praise your name.
Thank you for our sins remission;
Hear us offer our petition;
Help us love without condition,
By your grace Lord, keep us guided;
And our wills fully decided,

That we be one, not divided,
Thank you Lord for love unending,
And for gifts you’re ever sending.
On your grace we are depending,
We are grateful and excited,
For the flame or praise ignited;
May your Spirit be delighted,
2. BE NOT WEARY IN WELL DOING BASED ON GAL. 6:9
BE NOT WEARY IN WELL DOING
FOR THE HARVEST IS AHEAD.
THOSE GOOD WORKS JUST KEEP PURSUING
LIVE THE GOOD LIFE TILL YOUR DEAD.
WAKE UP NOW AND DON'T BE SLEEPING
BE IN SERVICE, ON THE GO.
FOR THE TIME WILL COME FOR REAPING
AND WE'LL REAP JUST AS WE SOW.
CHORUS
THERE IS JOY IN SERVING JESUS
LET US THIS SONG OFTEN SING.
MAY HIS JOYOUS SPIRIT SEIZE US
AND FROM US WEARINESS FLING.
II
LET US DO GOOD TO ALL PEOPLE
MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHO THEY ARE.
SOME WON'T COME UNDER YOUR STEEPLE
BUT FROM LOVE DON'T ANY BAR.
BUT TO ALL WHO ARE BELIEVERS

SHOW YOUR LOVE ESPECIALLY.
THEY SHOULD BE THE MAIN RECEIVERS
FOR THEY ARE GOD'S FAMILY.
III
EVERY PERSON IN THE BODY
HAS A TASK THAT'S JUST THEIR OWN.
THEY CAN DO A JOB THAT'S SHODDY
OR WORK FINGERS TO THE BONE.
EVERYTHING WE DO FOR JESUS
WILL RECEIVE A GREAT REWARD.
IF THE HOLY SPIRIT FREES US
TO LOVE LABOR FOR OUR LORD.
IV
THERE'S A CRYING NEED FOR WORKERS
FOR OUR JOB IS NEVER DONE.
BUT WHEN THE HOLY SPIRIT STIRS
SERVING CHRIST CAN BE GREAT FUN.
EVERYWHERE PEOPLE NEED LOVING
THEY NEED TO KNOW SOMEONE CARES.
IN THIS WORLD WITH SO MUCH SHOVING
BROKEN LIVES NEED LOVES REPAIRS.
CHORUS
3. BETTER IS ONE DAY IN YOUR COURTS BASED ON PSALM 84
I
BETTER IS ONE DAY IN YOUR COURTS
THAN ANY ONE THOUSAND ELSEWHERE.
I'D RATHER KEEP DOORS, GIVE REPORTS
THAN BE WITH THOSE WHO JUST DON'T CARE.
FOR MY LORD IS A SUN AND SHIELD
WHO REWARDS HIS SERVANTS QUITE WELL.
IF TO TEMPTATION THEY DON'T YIELD
IN HIS FAVOR THEY WILL EXCEL.
2
NO GOOD THING WILL OUR LORD WITHHOLD
FOR THOSE WHO WALK BLAMELESS FROM SIN.
IF THEY IN THEIR FAITH WILL BE BOLD
GREAT HONOR AND FAVOR THEY'LL WIN.

BLESSED IS THAT MAN, LORD IT'S CLEAR
WHO ALWAYS PUTS HIS TRUST IN YOU.
HE'LL THRIVE IN A BRIGHT ATMOSPHERE
THAT'S EVER FILLED WITH BLESSINGS NEW.
4. BODY PRAISE BASED ON PSALM 47. SUNG TO HYMN TO JOY BY BEETHOVEN.

LET THE WHOLE WORLD KNOW HE'S YOUR KING
KING OF ALL KINGS ON THE EARTH.
CLAP YOUR HANDS AND RAISE YOUR VOICES

GOD HAS GIVEN MANY CHOICES
TO PREVENT LOVE'S GROWING DIM.

WITH THE TONGUE WE PRAISE YOUR NAME.
HELP US NOW TO LEAVE THIS CHURCH PEW
LOVING MORE THAN WHEN WE CAME.
5. BRIDE OF THE LAMB
HE MADE ALL WE LOVE AND ADORE
HE'S THE MIND THAT GAVE ALL ITS START.
HE'S THE BUILDER OF OUR EVER MORE
THE BRIDE IS HIS GREAT WORK OF ART.
SHE'S AS WIDE AND AS LONG AS HIGH
WITH THREE GATES OF PEARL ON EACH SIDE.
THE GEMS OF THE WORLD BEAUTIFY
THIS CITY, THE LAMBS HOLY BRIDE.
SHE SHINES JUST LIKE CRYSTAL CLEAR GLASS

IN BEAUTY THEIRS NONE CAN SURPASS
THIS BRIDE MADE OF ALL IN GOD'S FOLD.

THERE NEVER HAS BEEN SUCH A WIFE
SO PERFECT IN EVERY FORM

WITH HIM SHE WILL NEVER KNOW NIGHT
BUT WALK WITH HIM THROUGH ENDLESS DAYS.
6. CHRIST THE LORD IS REALLY RISEN
CHRIST THE LORD IS REALLY RISEN

AND WE LONG TO SHOUT LIKE THUNDER.
SO IT'S EVERYWHERE REPEATED
DEATH'S POWER IS NOW DEFEATED.
CHORUS
HE'S ALIVE AND EVER WILL BE
PRAISE GOD, HE NEVER MORE CAN DIE.
HE'S THE ONE WE EVER WILL SEE
AS WE ALL REIGN WITH HIM ON HIGH.
II
JESUS BROKE DOWN THE GATES OF HELL

WITH HIM WE'LL LIVE FOR EVER MORE
AND NEVER CEASE TO HIM ADORE.

8. COLOR IS FOREVER SUNG TO LOVE DIVINE
I
LIKE THE COAT OF MANY COLORS
JACOB GAVE TO HIS OWN SON.
THIS LOVELY CREATION OF YOURS
IS IN COLOR FOR OUR FUN.
HOW WE LOVE THE RED OF ROSES
AND THE YELLOW OF THE SUN.
YOUR LOVE OF COLOR SUPPOSES
IT'S A GIFT THAT'S NEVER DONE.
CHORUS
COLOR IS FOREVER
OF THAT THERE IS NO DOUBT.
SO BE SILENT NEVER
BUT EVER PRAISE AND SHOUT.
THANK YOU LORD FOR COLORS
THAT WE SEE EVERYWHERE
FOR BECAUSE OF COLORS
YOUR GLORY WE CAN SHARE.
II
THERE'LL BE COLORS UP IN HEAVEN
GOLDEN STREETS TO WALK UPON.
EVERY RACE AND COLOR OF MEN

WILL MEET AND GREET US UP YON.
THE TREE OF LIFE WILL BE SO GREEN
WITH IT'S FRUIT ALL COLORS BRIGHT.
WITH SHADES OUR EYES HAVE NEVER SEEN
FEEDING SAINTS ALL CLOTHED IN WHITE.
III
IT'S ALL BECAUSE THE COLOR RED
WAS SO USED OF GOD ONE DAY.
IT'S ALL BECAUSE CHRIST'S BLOOD WAS SHED
ALL OUR SINS WERE WASHED AWAY.
SO COLOR IS A PART OF LIFE
ONLY HELL IT'S LOSS WILL PAY.
WHEN GOD IS FINISHED WITH ALL STRIFE
COLOR WILL BE HERE TO STAY.
9. COMFORT ZONES
I
LORD WE DON'T LIKE BROKEN BONES
BUT WE LIKE OUR COMFORT ZONES.
LEAVE US BE JUST AS WE ARE
SO CHANGE WON'T OUR LIFE STYLE MARR.
TO EXPLORE WE ARE NOT KEEN
FOR THOSE WORLDS WE HAVE NOT SEEN.
DO NOT TO US HAVE APPEAL
SO TO US THEY ARE NOT REAL.
II
TO OTHER VIEWS I AM BLIND
BUT I REALLY DO NOT MIND
FOR IT'S HARD FOR ME TO FIND
VIEWS THAT DON'T MAKE ME UNKIND.
LORD I KNOW IT'S NOT YOUR WILL
I GIVE OTHER VIEWS A CHILL
SO PLEASE WITH YOUR SPIRIT FILL
AND IN ME YOUR DREAMS FULFILL.
III
BREAK AND MOLD ME BY YOUR GRACE
SO WHEN WE ARE FACE TO FACE
I CAN HONESTLY THEN SAY

LORD I DID WALK IN YOUR WAY.
FROM BONDAGE I DID BREAK FREE
WHOLE NEW WORLDS OPENED TO ME,
I PRAISE YOU WITH JOYFUL TONES
FOR I'M FREE FROM COMFORT ZONES.
10. COMMUNION SONG
THIS IS MY BODY I GAVE FOR YOU

GIVE THANKS FOR THE BODY IN BREAD
GIVE THANKS FOR THE BLOOD IN CUP.
GIVE THANKS THAT YOUR SAVIOR'S NOT DEAD
BUT IS BY GOD'S GRACE RAISED UP.
HE'S COMING AGAIN FOR HIS BRIDE
THAT SHE MIGHT REIGN AT HIS SIDE.
HE'LL RAPTURE THOSE FOR WHOM HE DIED

REJOICE IN THIS BREAD AND CUP.

WHO WILL COME AND RAISE US UP.

14. EACH MORNING YOUR MERCIES ARE NEW
1.
Your mercy is beyond compare;
None other will we ever find.
When man deserves all his despair
You reveal a heart that is kind.
You give your best to set men free.
You gave your own Son for our sin.
Such love is a great mystery.
Mercy like this has never been.
CHORUS
Each morning your mercies are new;
By your grace they fall like the dew.
Throughout the day they continue.
Your mercies are ever in view.
2.
Like sheep we often go astray;

We wonder away from your path.
We ought to some penalty pay,
But you show us mercy, not wrath.
Oh Lord how can we thank you more
For never forsaking your love.
In mercy you ever restore;
For ever we'll praise you above.
CHORUS
15. EASTER PRAISE

There's no message more glorious
Than the one we sing this day.

There's no other way to show it,
So we praise His holy name,
For we want our Lord to know it;
We're so grateful that He came.
CHORUS
Jesus came to earth to rescue
All who were the slave of sin.
Lord, this Easter day we bless you,
For you did the victory win.
2.
By our Easter songs we praise Him
Who defeated our great foe.
He brought light that never will dim,
But by His grace ever glow.
He's alive and ever will be.
He's the one we'll ever praise.
There will be endless jubilee
When He all from death will raise.
CHORUS
3.
There's not now, nor ever will be
Any king to take your role.

You alone can set the dead free;
You alone can make men whole.
You're the King of Kings forever;
To your Lordship we will bow.
It is our life's great endeavor
To be loyal servants now.
CHORUS
16. EASTER’S OUR GREAT CELEBRATION
Easter’s our great celebration
Of life’s victory o’er death.
Now it’s our great obligation
To praise our Lord with our breath.
Jesus is our greatest hero.
He is the King of all kings.
He reduced death to a zero.
He is now Lord of all things.
He is alive now and ever.
From all bondage He sets free.
Nothing from His love can sever.
Endless will be jubilee.
Easter is our great rejoicing.
Life in Christ will never end.
This, the Gospel, we are voicing.
He is our eternal friend.
He bore all sin on Calvary.
He paid the price for it all.
He will now set every man free,
If on His name they will call.

He is alive and he’s trying
To save each lamb gone astray.
He will not endure their dying;
This good news we must relay.
He’s alive and I’m forgiven.
He’s alive and coming back.
He’ll be taking us to heaven
Where death never can attack.
Jesus hear our Easter praises
As we exalt you our King.
Give us endless words and phrases,
For your praise endless we’ll sing.
17. FOR THE GLORY OF THE SON
For the glory of the Son,
For His majesty on high,
For the victory He won,
For in Him we never die.
Living Lord this Easter Day
All our praise to you we pay.
For this season of the year,
For the beauty of the Spring,
For all nature’s power to cheer,
For the voice by which we sing,
Risen Lord this Easter Day
All our praise to you we pay.
For the enemy’s defeat,
For the hope of life above,

For your reign on mercy’s seat,
For your sacrificial love,
Reigning Lord this Easter Day,
We rejoice in you always.
For your promise to return,
For your presence with us now,
For your ever kind concern,
For the gifts you us endow,
Coming Lord this Easter Day,
Praise is all our tongue can say.
18. THE FACE OF GOD
CHRISTMAS IS GOD'S GREAT INVASION
OF THIS EARTH FROM BEYOND SPACE.
ON THIS MARVELOUS OCCASION
HE REVEALED TO MAN HIS FACE.
AT THE START HE WAS A STRANGER
JUST A BABY OUT OF PLACE.
EARTH'S CREATOR IN A MANGER
WAS NOT TO HIM A DISGRACE.
II
SHEPHERDS WATCHING THEIR FLOCKS BY NIGHT
HEARD THE GOOD NEWS OF GOD'S GRACE.
WHEN THE ANGELS HAD LEFT THEIR SIGHT
THEY LEFT TOO WITH HURRIED PACE.
THEY RAN TO BETHLEHEM'S STABLE
WHERE THE CHRIST CHILD THEY EMBRACE.

PRAISING GOD THAT THEY WERE ABLE
TO BEHOLD HIM FACE TO FACE.
III
WISE MEN SAW HIS STAR IN THE EAST
IT WAS RARE, NOT COMMONPLACE.
WHEN HEAVEN CELEBRATES A FEAST
THEY IT'S MEANING LONG TO TRACE.
NO JOURNEY COULD BE ON A PAR
NOTHING COULD THAT SIGHT ERASE.
THEY WOULD EVER FOLLOW THAT STAR
TILL THEY SAW CHRIST'S SHINING FACE.
IV
HE CAME HERE TO BE ONE OF US
TO STAND WITH US FACE TO FACE.
TAKING ON HIM THE NAME JESUS
SAVIOR OF OUR FALLEN RACE..
TO THE HEAVENS HE'S ASCENDED
HE HAS RETURNED TO HIS BASE.
ALL THAT'S BROKEN WILL BE MENDED
AND ALL EVIL HE'LL REPLACE.
V
WHEN WE SEE THE FACE OF JESUS
WE BEHOLD THE FACE OF GOD.
MAY THIS AMAZING TRUTH SEIZE US
AS WE THROUGH THIS SEASON TROD.
WE LOOK UPON THE FACE OF GOD
WHEN THE FACE OF CHRIST WE SEE.
LET THIS CHRISTMAS SPIRIT YOU PROD
TO LOOK AND IN HIM BE FREE.

19. FATHER IN HEAVEN
Father in heaven, thanks for all you've given.
Your mercies are unending,
Each morning they are new.
Thank you Lord Jesus, for your gift that frees us.
This praise we're ever sending
With gratitude to you.
Thank you Holy Spirit, let all heaven hear it.
On you we are depending
Our spirits to renew.
God of all living, to you this Thanksgiving
Be from our hearts ascending
For all gifts you endue.
20. FOR ME TO LIVE IS JESUS
Sung to Ode to Joy
I.
What's the grade for which your reaching
In this school we call life?
Have you done any researching
That could minimize the strife?
Life will end in a great testing
On that coming judgment day;
Happy will be those investing
In that Teacher who's the Way.
Chorus:

So for me to live is Jesus,
And to die is still my gain.
I'll not settle for a B-plus,
But by Him an A obtain.
II.
You can strive to be average,
Or just be content with less.
You can in sinful acts engage,
As you make your life a mess.
That's not the way I want to go
In this life that goes so fast.
There is good seed I want to sow
To produce fruit that will last.
Chorus:
III.
Jesus is my greatest treasure,
Thus for me to live is Christ.
He gives grace beyond all measure;
Gifts that just cannot be priced.
In Him I am rich in pleasure
Because of His sacrifice.
By His grace I'll live forever,
And enjoy His paradise.

22. FROM GLORY TO GLORY Based on II Cor. 3:7-18

1.
The Lord is the spirit,
And where the spirit is
Freedom is infinite,
And He gives us what is His.
Glorious is Christ-likeness;
He helps us to reflect,
That those in great darkness
May light in us detect.
CHORUS
From glory to glory
We are being transformed;
Till we end this story,
And are to Christ conformed.
2.
The glory of Moses
Was covered by a veil;
Such action supposes
It was starting to fail.
The glory of the law
Was meant to pass away,
That even greater awe
Could come to earth to stay.
CHORUS
3.
When to the Lord Jesus
A man will turn his eyes,

He sees that which pleases
Our God in paradise.
Gone that veil of hiding,
The light of life now shines.
Light that's ever guiding,
And that never declines.
CHORUS
23. GOD HAS A FACE
We cannot see God the Father;
The Holy Spirit leaves no trace.
These facts our faith need not bother,
For in Jesus God has a face.
God has a face that we can see
In both time and eternity.
He joined the human race just so
His heavenly Father we could know.
The eyes of man are so finite
There’s much of God in shades so dim,
But Jesus came to give the light
That we might get a glimpse of Him
You cannot see and live to tell
If God’s glory comes your way,
But Jesus came and bore our hell
And by it tore the veil away.
He let the light of heaven shine
On this dark world of sin and shame.

He took away your sin and mine,
To show love was his aim.
He came to show to our blind eyes
What can be found no other place.
He made it clear as sunny skies,
That God has a loving face.
God has a face and we can see it
If we in his light will run.
God has a place and we can find it
If we say “Thy will be done.”
God has a grace and we can feel it
If all evil ways we shun.
God has a space and we can fill it
If we make Him number one.
God has a face and we can see it
In the person of His Son.
24. GOD IS LOVE
THE WORLD IS BLACK, THE WORLD IS WHITE
IT'S ALL COLORS THAT ARE IN SIGHT.
THE WORLD IS WRONG, SO SELDOM RIGHT
IT REJECTS SONG, AND CHOOSES FIGHT.
CHORUS
BUT GOD IS LOVE, YES GOD IS LOVE
SHOUT IT FROM THE HEAVENS ABOVE.
THIS WORLD BELOW HAS GOT TO KNOW
THAT GOD IS LOVE, YES GOD IS LOVE.

II
MAN IS SO BLIND, CAN'T SEE THE LIGHT
HE WALKS IN DARK, LIVES IN THE NIGHT
BEAUTY DENIED FOR EVILS BLIGHT
HE PURSUES SIN, WITH ALL HIS MIGHT.
CHORUS
25. GOD IS OUR ROCK
GOD IS OUR ROCK
TO WHOM WE LIFT OUR EYES.
GOD IS OUR ROCK
WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE.
GOD IS OUR ROCK
OH HELP US LORD BE WISE,
AS WE SHOUT IT ALL ABOUT
GOD IS OUR ROCK.
II.
GOD IS OUR ROCK
OUT FEET TO STABILIZE.
GOD IS OUR ROCK
OUR ROAD TO VITALIZE.
GOD IS OUR ROCK
THIS FAITH WE EXERCISE.
AS WE SHOUT IT ALL ABOUT
GOD IS OUR ROCK.
26. GOD LOVES TO SING ZECH.3:17

THE WHIP UPON HIS BACK.
ALL FOLLOWERS HAVE FLED

CHORUS
CRUCIFY, CRUCIFY, THEY SHOUT
IN THIS CASE WE CAN'T SUFFER LOSS.
IT CAN ONLY ONE WAY TURN OUT
THIS MAN MUST END UP ON THE CROSS.
II
CLOTHED WITH A PURPLE ROBE

PILATE BRINGS JESUS OUT.
MERCY HE HOPES TO PROBE

I FIND NO FAULT IN HIM
I'LL NOT CONDEMN THIS MAN.

FOR HIS ACQUITTAL PLAN.

He died for my sin to free me;
He gave all in sacrifice.
There's no way I can repay Him,
And no payment He demands,
But I will ever obey Him
With my heart, my head and hands.
He's my living Lord of wonder-
Conqueror of death and hell.
I want a voice like the thunder
My great joy in Him to tell.
He's alive and ever with me
As He promised long ago.
I want men to see Him in me,
As He walks with me below.

I want His light in life's darkness
To reveal to men the way,
Making my every remark bless,
And through me His love convey.
I want all the world to know Him
As their Savior and their King.
I want all the world to show Him
As they with the ransomed sing.
Glory to the Son whose risen,
And who never will go down.
He has broken earth's dark prison,
And now wears life's royal crown.
34. HE'S THE ALPHA AND OMEGA
HE'S THE ALPHA AND OMEGA
THE BEGINNING AND THE END.
HE'S THE HERO OF LIFE’S DRAMA
AND OUR EVER LASTING FRIEND.
HE'S THE ALPHA AND OMEGA
THE BEGINNING AND THE END.
BRIGHTER THAN THE STAR OF VAGA
BEYOND MIND TO COMPREHEND.
HE'S THE FIRST AND VERY LAST
YES HE'S JUST ONE OF KIND.
HE'LL QUENCH YOUR THIRST SO VERY FAST
AND HE'LL GIVE YOU PEACE OF MIND.
TO EVERYONE WHO HAS A THIRST
HE GIVES DRINK WITHOUT COST.

WITHOUT HIM WE WOULD ALL BE CURSED
AND WITHOUT HOPE BE LOST.
HE LEADS US TO HEAVEN'S OWN SPRING
WITH WATER OH SO PURE.
HE'S FREED US NOW SO CAN SING
IN HIM SIN HAS A CURE.
35. HE'S THE SUN THAT CASTS NO SHADOW
I was looking for a lighthouse
To help me find my way.
I listened to my friends and spouse,
And all they had to say.
Life was dark and seemed so dreary.
I was glad when day was done.
I was tired and so weary;
Life was work and seldom fun.
Then the day I'll always treasure
Chased that darkness all away,
For I found light without measure
And of Jesus now I say-
He's the light that brings the flowers
To the garden of my soul.
He's the light that now empowers
My whole life to reach its goal.
There is a goal for each of us
We must reach before we die,
And our only hope is Jesus
And on Him we can rely.

Don't seek to find another sun
To be your guide in the dark.
For Jesus is the only one
Who can lead you to your mark.
There are lights of earthly cities
That have appeal to the crowds,
But the Lord of light just pities
Those who look below the clouds.
They find lights that shine and glimmer
And give joy for half a day,
But they'll never be a winner
Trusting lights that pass away.
When lights of time are going out,
And the times are dark and drear;
When all lights seem to lose their clout,
Let this message your heart cheer:
Look to Jesus, He's the sunlight
That gives light to every man.
He alone can make your life bright,
And illumine God's great plan.
He's the one Sun in the heavens
That gives life to all the earth.
By His power all is driven
From the day it had its birth.
He's the Sun that casts no shadow
Be in morning or high noon.
Be it winter or in June.

Any time the year around.
He's the Sun that casts no shadow;
He's a Sun that's most profound.
He's the Sun that casts no shadow,
With Him there can be no night.
He's the Sun that casts no shadow;
Everywhere He is the light.
There's no light that's always shining
In this world so filled with night.
And there is no use in whining,
For that won't keep on the light.
All life under earthly sunshine
Has its shadows all around.
You can earthly blessings combine
But still shadows will abound.
Oh the sun stood still for Joshua,
And it helped him win the fight,
But it no doubt cast a shadow,
And it did go down at night.
In the great song of Deborah
She did make this fact quite plain,
That God's own were strong as the sun,
And that's why their foes were slain.
The solar sun sets every night
When its glowing orb goes down,
But Jesus still shines pure and bright;
There's none like Him can be found.

On the water or the land.
He's the Sun that casts no shadow,
For His is a flawless plan.
36. HIS NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES Based on Phil.2:9-11
1
In heaven Jesus is Lord,
And the day will come on earth;
He will be by all adored,
And exalted for His worth.
At His name all knees will bow,
And every tongue will confess.
It’s a shame it’s not true now,
It would solve much of life’s mess.
CHORUS:
His name is above all names.
His claims are above all claims.
His spirit our heart inflames.
All that He made He reclaims.
2
Join all in praising His name,
Who came to die on the cross.
Earth can never be the same.
He regained all that was loss.
On earth and under the earth;
All heaven too will join in
Singing a song of His worth,

This sovereign Savior from sin.
37. HOSANNA THE CROWD WAS SHOUTING
Sung to the tune Austria, or
the hymn Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
HOSANNA THE CROWD WAS SHOUTING,
AS THEY WAVED THEIR PALMS ON HIGH.
THERE WAS NO MORE NEED OF SCOUTING,
THEIR MESSIAH NOW WAS NIGH.
TRIUMPHANTLY RODE LORD JESUS
HUMBLE THOUGH HE WAS A KING,
EVEN CHILDREN MADE A BIG FUSS
AS THEY MADE THE TEMPLE RING.
BLESSED IS THE SON OF DAVID
WAS THE SONG THE CHILDREN SANG.
SHOUTING ABOUT ALL THAT HE DID
AFTER WHOM THE WHOLE WORLD SPRANG.
A DAY OF SUCH GREAT EMOTION
TOUCHED THE LIVES OF EVERYONE.
A DAY OF SUCH GREAT DEVOTION;
YET SOME THERE DESPISED THE SON.
ISRAEL'S LEADERS TRIED TO END IT,
IT WAS SO UNDIGNIFIED;
THERE WAS NO WAY TO DEFEND IT;
THIS MAN MUST BE CRUCIFIED.
CHILDREN SANG THE KING IS COMING;
THAT IS STILL OUR MESSAGE TOO.
EVERY KNEE WILL BOW AND TONGUE SING
PRAISE TO WHOM ALL PRAISE IS DUE.
JESUS STILL MAKES HIS GREAT ENTRY

INTO HEARTS THAT OPEN WIDE.
THERE'S NO PLACE AND THERE'S NO CENTURY
INTO WHICH HE WILL NOT RIDE.
OPEN THEN YOUR HEART TO JESUS,
HAIL HIM RIGHT NOW AS YOUR KING.
HE HAS PROMISED NOT TO LEAVE US
TIL WE CONQUER EVERYTHING.
38. HOW DID JESUS BECOME OUR KING
HOW DID JESUS BECOME OUR KING
WAS IT BY AN ELECTION.
NO, NOT BY ANY SUCH A THING
IT WAS BY RESURRECTION.
BY THE POWER OF YOUR SONSHIP
YOU CONQUERED DEATH ONCE FOR ALL.
LET US BOW IN AWESOME WORSHIP
TO THIS ONE NOW LORD OF ALL.

THE LAST ENEMY HE BATTERED
LEAVING HIM A WOUNDED FOE.

ME FROM HIM NOR HIM FROM ME.

HOW WE THANK YOU THAT YOU CAME.
IV

YOU ARE LORD AND KING OF ALL KINGS
REIGNING OVER ALL ON HIGH.

NOTHING YOU LOVE E'ER WILL DIE.
39. HOW LOVELY IS YOUR DWELLING PLACE
Based on Psalm 84 sung to O For a Thousand tongues to sing
HOW LOVELY IS YOUR DWELLING PLACE
MY GOD ALMIGHTY LORD.
MY YEARNING SOUL LONGS TO EMBRACE
THOSE COURTS WHERE YOU'RE ADORED.
YES MY HEART AND MY FLESH CRY OUT
TO FEEL THE LIVING GOD.
I LOVE TO SING AND PRAISES SHOUT
AS TO YOUR HOUSE I TROD.

2
EVEN THE SPARROW FINDS A HOME
AND THE SWALLOW HER NEST,

REJOICING IN THEIR YOUNG,
THERE TOO ALMIGHTY GOD AND KING
I WANT YOUR PRAISES SUNG.
3
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO DWELL THEREIN
THE HOUSE OF YOUR ABODE,
THEY NEVER CEASE WHEN THEY BEGIN
YOUR PRAISES TO EXPLODE.
BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO HAVE THEIR STRENGTH
OH LORD FROM YOU ON HIGH,
WITH HEARTS SET TO TRAVEL GREAT LENGTH
THEY'LL EVER DO OR DIE.
4
AS THEY PASS THROUGH BACA'S VALLEY
A PLACE OF SPRINGS THEY MAKE,
DESERT IT WILL NO LONGER BE
WITH POOLS ALL THIRST TO SLAKE.
FROM STRENGTH TO STRENGTH THEY EACH WILL GO
TILL BEFORE GOD APPEAR,
HEAR MY PRAYER LORD AND LET ME KNOW
YOU LISTEN AND YOUR NEAR.

40. PSALM84 HOW LOVELY IS YOUR DWELLING 2
HOW LOVELY IS YOUR DWELLING
WITH BEAUTY SO EXCELLING
IT FILLS MY SOUL WITH SUCH THIRST
MY HEART IS READY TO BURST.
I'M FAINT WITH DESPERATE LONGING
TO JOIN WITH THOSE NOW THRONGING
TO PRAISE YOU IN YOUR COURTS LORD
FOR EVERY GIFT AND REWARD.
2.
ALL NATURE IS DEAR TO YOU
EACH BIRD IS WELCOME NEAR YOU
BY YOUR ALTAR THEY CAN NEST
AND WITH NEW LIFE THEY'LL BE BLEST.
IF FOR THESE CREATURES YOU CARE
WE NEVER NEED TO DESPAIR
YOU WILL LISTEN TO OUR PRAYER
AND AID ALL BURDENS TO BEAR.
3
TO BE WITH YOU FOR ONE DAY
IS BETTER FAR THEN TO STAY,
A THOUSAND DAYS WITHOUT YOU
NO MATTER HOW GREAT THE VIEW.
NOWHERE I WOULD RATHER BE
EVEN THOUGH ON BENDED KNEE
I SERVE YOU MY LORD AND KING
GIVER OF EVERY GOOD THING.

4
LORD GOD YOUR MY SUN AND SHIELD
ALL YOUR FAVOR TO US YIELD,
YOUR GOOD HAND IS NEVER SEALED
BY YOUR GRACE ALL HURTS ARE HEALED.
NO GOOD THING WILL YOU WITHHOLD
IF OUR WALK IN FAITH IS BOLD
IF WE WALK IN FAITH ROBUST
WE'LL BE BLEST WITH ALL WHO TRUST.
41. HOW MANY DAYS CAN I SERVE HIM.
How many days can I serve Him?
How many ways can I love?
How can I ever deserve Him
Jesus my Lord from above?
How can I ever be grateful?
How can I be just like Him?
How can I never be hateful
Be filled with love to the brim?
How, tell me how, my dear Savior,
How can a sinner like me-
How can I give life a flavor
That tastes of eternity?
How can I overcome evil?
How can I please Him each day?
How can I life with His love fill
Walking always in His way?
How can I live for His glory?

How give Him praise that He's due?
How can I share His great story
So that others love Him too?
42. I AM THE WAY THE TRUTH THE LIFE
I am the Way, the Truth, the Life;
The Way to overcome all strife.
I am the only Way to trod
For all those who would come to God.
I am the Way to walk in peace
With God and with your fellow man.
I am the Way to faith's increase,
And to fulfill God's perfect plan.
I am the Way to heaven's joy;
Where sin will never more annoy;
Where you will never cease to praise,
And night will never end your days.
I am Jesus, the Lord most high.
I came that by faith none need die.
Now walk with Me who am the Way,
And live with me in endless day.

CHORUS;
FATHER , SON AND HOLY SPIRIT
MAKE ME WHAT I OUGHT TO BE.
GIVE ME COURAGE NOT TO FEAR IT
BUT BE SURRENDERED TO THEE.
44. I LOVE TO GO TO SUNDAY SCHOOL
I love to go to Sunday School
To learn the Word of God.
I want His truth my life to rule
And light each path I trod.
I love to go to Sunday School
And learn to love Christ more;
To make myself a better tool,
As we God's Word explore.

I love to hear the Bible read,
And hear its stories told.
I love to know what God has said,
For it my life will mold.
I love to memorize the Word,
And hide God's truth within.
There's nothing I have ever heard
Like it to keep from sin.
I love to sing the songs of praise,
And clap my hands with joy.
It makes Sundays the best of days,
And all my doubts destroy.
I love my Christian family
Brothers, sisters in Christ.
I hate to be an absentee
For such love can't be priced.
So listen to this song I sing,
And come with me my friend.
We'll follow Christ our living King,
And praise Him without end.
45. I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THESE
I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THESE,
THE BUZZ OF BEES, THE BIRDS IN TREES;
THE SOFTLY BLOWING EVENING BREEZE;
EVEN POLLEN THAT MAKES ME SNEEZE.
NOTHING OF SPRING CAN ME DISPLEASE.
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THESE.

I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THOSE,
THE SUN THAT GLOWS ON CRIMSON ROSE;
THE CROPS FROM WHICH THEY MAKE MY CLOTHES
THE LOVELY SMELLS THAT REACH MY NOSE
BEAUTY THAT INSPIRES RHYME AND PROSE
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THOSE.
I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THIS
THE PEACEFUL BLISS, THE MOON LIGHT KISS
THE BUTTERFLY FROM CHRYSALIS
FLOWERS BRIGHT FROM DARK ABYSS.
ABSENCE OF THE PESSIMIST
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL THIS.
I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ALL OF THAT
THE FRISKY CAT, THE FRIGHTENING BAT.
THE SIBLING THAT CAN BE A BRAT;
COWS THAT EAT TILL THEY GET FAT.
GREAT THINGS ARE EVERYWHERE YOU ARE AT
LORD I THANK YOU FOR ALL OF THAT.
I PRAISE YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING
YOUR LOVE CAN BRING, IN TIME OF SPRING
THE THINGS THAT CRAWL, THE THINGS THAT SWING
THE THINGS THAT SWIM OR GO BY WING.
THEY ALL JOIN IN AND WITH ME SING
LORD I THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING.
46. I WILL ENJOY GOD'S FRUITS
This is written to be sung to the tune of I will enter His gates with thanksgiving in my heart.
I will enjoy God's fruits with thanksgiving in my heart,
And share them wherever I go.

I pray they'll always be sweet and never tart,
So others will want my Jesus to know.
I long to bear fruit,
I long to bear it for my Savior's praise.
I long to bear it for my Savior's praise.
Will you join me and pray God will produce more good fruit,
And make us all life-giving trees.
That Jesus Christ through us every hunger may suit,
And we our Father in heaven may please.
Let us bear good fruit,
O let us bear it for our Savior's praise.
O Let us bear it for our Savior's praise.
47. IF I HAD A THOUSAND LIVES TO LIVE
If I had a thousand lives to live,
I’d live them all for you.
If I had a thousand lives to give,
I’d give them all for you.
If I had a thousand eyes to see,
I’d devote all to see your face.
If I had a thousand legs to run,

I’d be running to your grace.
If I had a thousand tongues to sing
I’d be praising your great name.
If I had a thousand bells to ring,
I’d be proclaiming your great fame.
If I had a thousand books to write,
I’d be writing of your love.
If I had a thousand ways of flight,
I’d be soaring to you above.
If I had a thousand prayers to pray,
I’d direct them to your throne.
If I had a thousand debts to pay,
I’d know you’d make them your own.
If I had a thousand ears to hear,
I’d be listening to your voice.
If I had a thousand friends to cheer,
I’d still make you my first choice.
If I had a thousand minds to think,
I’d develop thoughts so fine.
If I had a thousand thoughts to think,
I’d think the greatest is, your mine.

If I had a thousand tears to cry,
I’d cry for all the lost.
For I know that for them you did die,
And you gladly paid the cost.
If I had a thousand ways to say,
How much you love them all,
I know many would come your way,
And give heed to your call.
But I haven’t got a thousand
Of anything I know.
I haven’t got a thousand
Of anything to show.
So one thing comes through so clearly,
I’ve got the wrong number here.
The number Christ holds most dearly
Should bring to our heart much cheer.
So though I only have one chance
To live a life for you,
Help me daily to advance,
And show that it is true.
One life is all that’s needed

To bring the dark world light.
One life, when your Words heeded
Can bring victory in the fight.
We don’t need a thousand of anything at all.
We just need a thousand times to listen to your call.
Give us a thousand blessings as before your throne we fall,
That we with just a single life can exalt you above all.
48. IN JESUS'S NAME
IN JESUS'S NAME
I LIFT UP MY PRAY'R
NOT FOR EARTHLY FAME
BUT FOR MY FAIR SHARE.
MY SHARE OF YOUR LOVE
FLOWING TO THE LOST.
COME HEAVENLY DOVE
HELP ME COUNT THE COST.
CHORUS:
HEAVENLY FATHER
LORD JESUS THE SON
AND HOLY SPIRIT
GOD AS THREE IN ONE.

FILL ME AND USE ME
LET MY LIGHT SO SHINE.
THAT OTHERS CAN SEE
YOUR LOVE SO DIVINE.
II
IN JESUS'S NAME
I COME WITH BOWED HEAD.
MY HEART FILLED WITH SHAME
BUT WANTING INSTEAD.
INSTEAD OF FAILING
I WANT TO SUCCEED.
O'ER ALL PREVAILING
SOWING GOSPEL SEED.
III
IN JESUS'S NAME
I COME STANDING TALL.
BECAUSE JESUS CAME
TO EXALT US ALL.
EXALTED AS KINGS
AND PRIEST OF OUR GOD.
YOUR PRAISES WE SING
AS YOUR WAY WE TROD.

49. IN THAT PRECIOUS GOLDEN CITY
IN THAT PRECIOUS GOLDEN CITY
WE WILL FINALLY BE AT REST.
THERE IS NONE DESERVES MORE PITY.
THAN ONE WHO FAILS TO SEE GOD'S BEST.
IT'S A MARVEL AND A WONDER
BEYOND THE MIND TO FULLY TELL.
YOU CAN'T MAKE A GREATER BLUNDER
THAN MISS THIS LIGHT FOR DARKEST HELL.
II
IT'S JERUSALEM THE GOLDEN
THE BRIDE OF HEAVEN'S SOVEREIGN KING.
HER GLORY NEVER WILL GROW OLDEN
BUT SHINE FOREVER LIKE A RING.
LIKE THE RING OF PRECIOUS JEWELS
THAT ENHANCE HER FOUNDATIONS WALLS.
SHE WILL ENJOY CONSTANT RENEWAL
FOR BEAUTY THAT EVER ENTHRALLS.
50. IT IS FINISHED Based on John 19:30
Can be sung to Ode to Joy
KNOWING ALL WAS NOW COMPLETED,

SCRIPTURE WOULD NOW BE FULFILLED.
OF MOISTURE HE WAS DEPLETED,
AND HE KNEW HE'D SOON BE KILLED.
I AM THIRSTY JESUS SHOUTED;
HIS PARCHED LIPS WERE GIVEN WINE.
THOUGH IN PAIN HE NEVER POUTED
HE IN DEATH AS LIFE DID SHINE.
CHORUS:
IT IS FINISHED CRIED OUR SAVIOR,
THERE'S NOTHING MORE TO BE DONE.
THERE'S NO BELIEF NOR BEHAVIOR
CAN IMPROVE THIS VICTORY WON.
II
JESUS PAID OUR DEBT COMPLETELY;
NOT ONE PENNY'S LEFT TO PAY.
IN PERFECTION WRAPPED UP NEATLY
HE TOOK ALL OUR SINS AWAY.
THERE'S NOTHING A SINNER CAN DO
TO WIN FAVOR FROM ABOVE.
HE MUST BID ALL EFFORTS ADO,
AND RECEIVE THIS SAVIOR'S LOVE.
51. IT IS FINISHED 2
1.
"It is finished," cried the Savior,
Then He died upon the cross.
He did all to win God's favor,
And to save what would be loss.

If His work was not completed
Men would be lost, never found.
This chance could not be repeated;
To this hour Christ was bound.
CHORUS
"It is finished! It is finished!"
Christ reports to God on high.
No force on earth can diminish
This our Savior's vict'ry cry.
2.
Seldom can life's goals be finished,
There is never enough time.
There is so much more that we wished
Could be achieved as we climb.
But our Savior came to this earth
To live life of such short span.
His life was of infinite worth,
But He laid it down for man.
CHORUS
3.
There is now no more to be done
To atone for man's dark sin.
Over every foe our Lord won,
So in Him we too might win.
He was over all victorious.
"It is finished," our Lord cried.
His triumph was so glorious.

He won life and then He died.
CHORUS
52. IT IS FINISHED 3
It is finished was His great cry
Just before our Savior died.
This was far more than a deep sigh,
As He felt His life subside.
It is clear He was announcing
To the Father up above;
In one word He was pronouncing
Victory was won for love.
"It is finished! It is finished!"
It can never be undone.
It can never be diminished;
Our salvation through the Son.
History can't be repeated.
He will never die again.
He has once for all completed
His great sacrifice for sin.
He, the Lamb of God has given
His life-blood for all mankind,
So that all may go to heaven
If they will this great truth find.
Nothing more can we add to it.
It is done once and for all.
But we each one must pursue it,

And on Jesus we must call.
We must take Him as our Savior,
And then trust Him as our Lord.
We will then have God's full favor,
And reap eternal reward.
53. IT IS WONDERFUL TO KNOW
IT IS WONDERFUL TO KNOW
THAT GOD LOVES ME EVERY DAY.
IT GIVES ME AN INNER GLOW
THAT WILL NEVER PASS AWAY.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO HEAR
HOW GOD GAVE TO US HIS SON.
THERE IS NO NEED FOR US TO FEAR
FOR HE HAS THE BATTLE WON.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO SEE
ALL THAT HIS HANDS DID CREATE.
FROM THE MOUNTAINS TO THE SEA
ALL HE MADE IS TRULY GREAT.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO FEEL
HE IS EVER BY MY SIDE.
HIS PRESENCE CAN BE SO REAL
AS I FOLLOW HIM, MY GUIDE.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO SMELL
THE FRAGRANCE OF HIS SWEET LOVE.
NO AROMA CAN EXCEL
THAT WHICH COMES FROM CHRIST ABOVE.

IT IS WONDERFUL TO TASTE
OF THE GLORY THAT'S TO BE.
I JUST NOTHING WANT TO WASTE
OF THE RICHES HE GIVES ME.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO LAUGH
AT THE HUMOR HE HAS MADE.
MONKEY, ELEPHANT, GIRAFFE
THERE'S NO END TO HIS PARADE.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO WALK
IN THE WAY THAT PLEASES HIM.
AND TO LISTEN TO HIS TALK
WHICH GIVES LIGHT THAT WILL NOT DIM.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO BE
A PART OF HIS CHOSEN BRIDE.
AND FOR ALL ETERNITY
TO WITH HIM ON HIGH RESIDE.
IT IS WONDERFUL TO SING
TO THE LORD I DEARLY LOVE.
I WILL EVER TO HIM CLING
TILL I JOIN HIM UP ABOVE.
54.
JESUS CAME FOR OUR SALVATION
JESUS CAME FOR OUR SALVATION
FILLING OUR HEARTS WITH ELATION.
MAKING US A NEW CREATION
LET US PRAISE, LET US PRAISE HIS NAME.

HE BECAME OUR SURE FOUNDATION
IN HIM WE'RE ON ROCK FORMATION.
SAFETY'S SURE IN THIS LOCATION
SO WE PRAISE, SO WE PRAISE HIS NAME.
HE SAVED US FROM SURE DAMNATION
FROM THE FIRES OF SOUL CREMATION.
THAT'S WHY HE'S OUR MIND'S FIXATION
AS WE PRAISE, AS WE PRAISE HIS NAME.
HE ALL THINGS IS THEIR CAUSATION
CREATOR IS HIS VOCATION.
EVERLASTING HIS DURATION
WE WILL PRAISE, WE WILL PRAISE HIS NAME.
55. JESUS HEALED THE BROKEN HEARTED
1.
Jesus healed the broken hearted,
And He set the captives free.
He never turned and departed
From anyone's misery.
He was filled with great compassion
For those, sickness did enslave,
Even though 'twas not the fashion,
He both healed them and forgave.
2.
Jesus befriended each victim
Who suffered from any ill.
It mattered not what the symptom,
He knew healing was God's will.

Jesus as the great physician
Never turned a patient down.
No matter what your position
On His compassion don't frown.
3.
Jesus was filled with compassion
For all sick in flesh and mind.
He made it his greatest passion
To reveal that God is kind.
For Jesus it did not matter
If one's sickness was from sin.
He came evil's grip to shatter
So that new life could begin.
4.
A friend is one who will come in
When the others all walk out.
His main goal is to help win
The battle with fear and doubt.
Jesus as our great physician
Has the greatest remedy:
Love each one in ill condition
With a love that they can see.
5.
Death is the final word of sin;
It's a word we all must hear,
But because of our Physician
It's a word we need not fear.
His is a voice so much stronger.

It's a voice that wakes the dead.
When He speaks we'll fear no longer,
But we'll love just as He said.
56. JESUS IS FIRST BASED ON COL. 1:15-20
sung to Hymn to Joy by Beethoven
He's the image of Deity,
Icon of God's own Being.
In Him invisibility
Can by human eyes be seen.
First Born over all creation;
All that is was by Him made.
All things both in earth and heaven,
He their foundation has laid.
Visible and invisible,
All was created by Him.
Every power conceivable,
Was created just for Him.
He existed before all things,
No exceptions can be found.
He's the source of power that brings
Order by which all is bound.
He holds everything together,
And He's the Head of the church.
There is no need to ask whether
We should for another search.
He is the very beginning;

He's the firstborn from the dead.
None can over Him be winning;
He is supremely ahead.
God was pleased to have His fulness
Dwell so completely in Him,
And through His divine completeness,
Reconcile all things to Him.
Nothing on earth or in heaven
Will make God suffer a loss,
For peace He has just the weapon
Through His blood shed on the cross.
57.
JESUS IS MY EVERYTHING
He’s my weekdays and my weekend,
He’s my week, my month and year.
He’s my Lord, my Guide, my best Friend,
He’s my everything most dear.
He’s my Life, my Light, my Sunshine.
He’s the source of all my Hope.
He’s all that’s worth while I call mine.
He is precious beyond scope.
He’s my Way, my Truth and my Door.
He’s my Savior and my King.
He is all I love and adore.
He is just my Everything.
Jesus is Everything to me;

He’s the One on whom I call.
He is Everything One could be;
Jesus is my All in All.
58. JESUS IS ON THE ROAD AGAIN
Based on Luke 24:13-35, and sung to Ode To Joy.
JESUS IS ON THE ROAD AGAIN,
OUR COMPANION WHERE WE WALK.
HE WILL ALWAYS BE THERE WHEN
OUR LIFE HAS A NEED FOR TALK.
HE WILL NEVER NOW FORSAKE US,
BUT BE EVER AT OUR SIDE.
HE WILL ON LIFE'S ROAD O'ER TAKE US,
AND IN OUR HOME WILL ABIDE.
CHORUS:
HE WILL WALK THE ROAD BESIDE US,
AS HE TEACHES US THE WAY.
HE'S THE RISEN CHRIST, LORD JESUS,
AND HE'S WITH US NOW TO STAY.
II
IN THE WORK PLACE HE WILL BE THERE,
IF WE CALL UPON HIS NAME.
HE WILL HELP US DO OUR FAIR SHARE,
AND AVOID PASSING THE BLAME.
IN OUR FAMILY HIS PRESENCE
WILL REMIND US TO BE KIND.
WHEN THE PRESSURE BECOMES INTENSE
AS WE FROM LIFE'S STRESS UNWIND.
CHORUS
III
JESUS DOES NOT ONLY MEET US

IN THE CHURCH OR SUNDAY SCHOOL.
SATAN WILL TRY TO DEFEAT US
ON LIFE'S ROAD JUST AS A RULE.
SO ITS THERE ON LIFE'S GREAT HIGHWAY
WHERE WE ARE TEMPTED AND TRIED.
WHEN WE FEEL WE HAVE FEET OF CLAY
TO SENSE JESUS BY OUR SIDE.
CHORUS
59. JESUS THE ARTIST
HE MADE ALL WE LOVE AND ADORE
HE'S THE MIND THAT GAVE ALL IT'S START.
HE'S THE BUILDER OF OUR EVER MORE
THE BRIDE IS HIS GREAT WORK OF ART.
SHE'S AS WIDE AND AS LONG AS HIGH
WITH THREE GATES OF PEARL ON EACH SIDE.
THE GEMS OF THE WORLD BEAUTIFY
THIS CITY, THE LAMBS HOLY BRIDE.
SHE SHINES JUST LIKE CRYSTAL CLEAR GLASS
LIKE JEWELS SURROUNDED BY GOLD.
IN BEAUTY THEIRS NONE CAN SURPASS
THIS BRIDE MADE OF ALL IN GOD'S FOLD.
THERE NEVER HAS BEEN SUCH A WIFE
SO PERFECT IN EVERY FORM
A PARTNER FOR ETERNAL LIFE
A VICTOR O'ER EVERY STORM.
HER GROOM IS THE SOURCE OF ALL LIGHT
SHE'S RADIANT UNDER HIS RAYS.
WITH HIM SHE WILL NEVER KNOW NIGHT
BUT WALK WITH HIM THROUGH ENDLESS DAYS.

60. JESUS THE SON IS OUR RAINBOW
1.
Jesus the Son is our rainbow
Before the throne of God.
His judgment waters will not flow
Upon this earthly sod.
The beauty of His cross does show
How much He loves mankind.
All heaven is filled with a glow
That earth bound eyes can't find.
CHORUS
He's the rainbow of God's heaven,
Colorful beyond compare,
And all those in Him believ'n
Will that beauty ever share.
2.
Jesus is the living rainbow,
And the Son who gives light.

Sung to Love Divine All Love Excelling
Lord, I'm missing your involvement,
In the life of everyday,
But I'm longing for evolvement,
And that's why this prayer I pray.
Let me see you in the morning
As I wait to face the day,
As my body I'm adorning
Help me my soul to survey.
Help me sense that you are present,
If I'll only be aware.
Help me focus on the pleasant,
And rejoice in all that's fair.

In the hustle and the bustle
Of my day at work and play,
Lord I'm hoping, and I'll trust you'll
Through my life your joy convey.
Help me see the needs around me
As a chance to show your love.
When life's problems do confound me,
Turn my eyes to you above.
When my day reaches an ending,
And the sun of light has set,
May I sense your great befriending,
And lie down without regret.
72. LOVE IS NOT A LUXURY
Love is not a luxury-
Something we can do without.
God made love necessary;
Love is what life is all about.
Never say it's not your need,
You'll do just fine without love.
To this message please give heed-
It's God's best gift from above.
It's a treasure above price;
Greater than silver and gold.
Nothing in life can suffice
To give warmth in this world's cold.
All other things can fail you;

Even things like faith and hope,
But love will ever stay true,
And through trials help you cope.
All others can let you down,
And be absent from your side.
Love will always be around
Strength and guidance to provide.

Making winter scars so fair.

With the leaves all turning bright.

He would die for all men.

He would suffer the loss.
He'd be every man's friend;
He would die on the cross.

From fulfilling God's will,
But He never grew grim,
But just aimed for that hill.

The hill of Mt. Calvary
Was His destination;
To set all sinners free
From God's condemnation.
Chorus:
III.
People did reject Him;
His own men let Him down;
Recruitments became slim,
But our Lord did not frown.
He just set His face for
What was His supreme goal;
To open Heaven's door
To save every lost soul.
Chorus:
IV.
O Lord how we praise you
For the price that you paid;
All that men put you through
Could not make you evade.
The cross was your clear aim;
That's why to earth you came;
To carry all our shame,
And our souls to reclaim.

99. OH I'VE NEVER MOVED A MOUNTAIN BASED ON PSALM 114

OH I'VE NEVER MOVED A MOUNTAIN
WITH MY FAITH LIKE MUSTARD SEED.
BUT I HAVE BEEN SO MOVED BY THEM
THEY HAVE INFLUENCED MY CREED.
THEY SO MAGNIFY GOD'S POWER
BY THEIR MAJESTY AND SIZE.
I SEE GOD AS MY HIGH TOWER
AS THEIR PEAKS REACH TO THE SKIES.
THEY ARE WIDE JUST LIKE GOD'S MERCY
AND AS SOLID AS HIS LOVE.
MADE SO AS TO LET HIS CHURCH SEE
SYMBOLS OF HIS STRENGTH ABOVE.
YET THE MOUNTAINS IN GOD'S PRESENCE
BEGAN SKIPPING JUST LIKE RAMS.
AND THE GLORY OF HIS ESSENCE
MADE THE HILLS FROLIC LIKE LAMBS.
100. ROAD TO EMMAUS
sung to ode to joy
I
TWO DISCIPLES AND A STRANGER
WALKED ALONG THAT EASTER DAY.
JESUS AS THE GREAT ARRANGER
HAD SOMETHING HE HAD TO SAY.
THEY WERE LIKE ALL HIS DISCIPLES
FILLED WITH SORROW AND WITH DREAD.
NO MORE MYSTERY IN CYCLES
THEIR MESSIAH NOW WAS DEAD.

II
HOPES WERE DASHED AND HEARTS WERE DARKENED
THE CROSS BLOTTED OUT ALL LIGHT.
BUT GOD TO THEIR HUNGER HARKENED
AND RESCUED THEM FROM THEIR PLIGHT.
JESUS WALKED ALONG BESIDE THEM
THOUGH THEY RECOGNIZED HIM NOT.
FROM HIS MOUTH FLOWED MANY A GEM
THAT HELPED THEM TO SEE GOD'S PLOT.
III
WHEN HE SAT WITH THEM AT TABLE
GIVING GOD THANKS FOR THE BREAD.
THEN THEIR OPENED EYES WERE ABLE
TO SEE CHRIST THEIR LIVING HEAD.
JESUS DISAPPEARED FROM THEIR SIGHT
BUT THEY KNEW HE WAS ALIVE.
THEY NEVER WOULD FORGET THAT NIGHT
FOR IT DID ALL JOY REVIVE.
IV
ON THAT LONG ROAD TO EMMAUS
JESUS TAUGHT AS NE'ER BEFORE
LISTEN CHRISTIAN IT WOULD PAY US
IF WE'D WALK THAT ROAD ONCE MORE.
WALKING RIGHT ALONG BESIDE US
AS WE TRAVEL DOWN LIFE'S ROAD.
IS OUR RISEN SAVIOR JESUS
INVITE HIM TO YOUR ABODE.
V

DO NOT BE SLOW TO BELIEVE HIM
LET YOUR HEART BURN FROM WITHIN.
OPEN YOUR HEART TO RECEIVE HIM
LET YOUR LIVING SAVIOR IN.
101. ROCK OF AGES LET ME STAND
ROCK OF AGES LET ME STAND
SAFELY AND SECURE IN THEE.
SAVE ME FROM ALL SINKING SAND
LET ME FROM ALL FOLLY FLEE.
LET ME IN YOU BE SECURE
AND LIKE YOU EVER ENDURE.
LET ME STAND COME WIND OR RAIN
LET ME IN YOU LORD ABIDE.
EVEN IN THE HURRICANE
LET ME SENSE YOU BY MY SIDE.
ROCK OF AGES PLEASE BE NEAR,
SAVE ME FROM ALL DOUBT AND FEAR.
WHEN THE STORM BEGINS TO BLOW
AND THE SKY IS TURNING DARK.
LET MY FAITH THEN CLEARLY SHOW
JUST LIKE NOAH'S IN THE ARK.
BRING MY SHIP LORD TO THE DOCK
LET ME STAND ON SOLID ROCK.
JESUS IS MY STEPPING STONE
ON HIM ONLY I RELY.
THERE IS NONE BUT HIM ALONE
TO WHEN SINKING I CAN CRY.
ROCK OF AGES, HE'S TO ME

ETERNAL SECURITY.
102. IT'S NOT I BUT SIN WITHIN ME
IT'S NOT I BUT SIN WITHIN ME
THAT COMPELS ME TO BE BAD.
OH FROM SUCH BONDAGE TO BE FREE
IS THE DEEPEST WISH I'VE HAD.
IN MY FLESH DWELLETH NO GOOD THING
THOUGH TO WILL GOOD I HAVE GOT
BUT MY FLESH WILL NOT CEASE TO CLING
TO THE EVIL THAT SAYS NOT.
CHORUS
I'M A PRISONER TO MY BODY
WHAT A WRETCHED MAN I AM.
BUT BY GRACE I CAN BE GODLY
BECAUSE OF JESUS THE LAMB.
II
I AM CARNAL SOLD UNDER SIN
WHAT I WOULD DO I DO NOT.
MY LONGINGS TO DO GOOD WITHIN
ARE UNDONE BY EVIL'S PLOT.
IN GOD'S LAW I DELIGHT WITHIN
BUT A CIVIL WAR I FIND
FOR IN MY FLESH THE LAW OF SIN
MAKES GREAT WAR AGAINST MY MIND.

103. ROMANS 7:1-6
LISTEN TO THIS TRUTH MY BROTHER
YOU ARE ALL DEAD TO THE LAW,.
AND NOW BELONG TO ANOTHER
WHO IS WITHOUT ANY FLAW.
YOUR FIRST MARRIAGE WAS DISASTER
BUT THANK GOD YOU ARE SET FREE.
NOW YOUR MARRIED TO THE MASTER
AND THIS CALLS FOR JUBILEE.
CHORUS
WE ARE NOW THE SAVIOUR'S BRIDE
MARRIED TO THE LAMB OF GOD.
WE NOW HAVE LIFE'S GREATEST GUIDE
AS ON LIFE'S HARD PATH WE TROD.
II
IN CHRIST WE ARE NO LONGER BOUND
THE OLD HAS NOW PASSED AWAY.
BY A NEW LOVE WE HAVE BEEN FOUND
WHOSE LOVE NEVER WILL DECAY.
WE NO LONGER HAVE TO FEAR IT
CONDEMNATION BY THE LAW.
FOR WE NOW SERVE IN THE SPIRIT
WITH FRUIT THE OLD NEVER SAW.
CHORUS
104. WE ARE WALKING IN THE SPIRIT

WE ARE WALKING IN THE SPIRIT
AND NO LONGER IN THE FLESH.
WHEN HIS WORD SPEAKS WE DO HEAR IT
AND OUR SOULS WITH HIS ENMESH.
IN THE FLESH NO ONE CAN PLEASE GOD
FOR THE CARNAL MIND IS DEATH.
IF ON THE PATH OF PEACE WE'LL TROD
WE MUST BE FILLED WITH HIS BREATH.
CHORUS
ABBA FATHER, ABBA FATHER
THE SPIRIT WITHIN DOES CRY.
FEAR OF BONDAGE DOES NOT BOTHER
WE ARE HEIRS WITH CHRIST ON HIGH.
II
IF BY HIS SPIRIT WE ARE LED
WE ARE THEN THE SONS OF GOD.
TO THE LAW AND FLESH WE'RE DEAD
AS THROUGH THIS DARK WORLD WE PLOD.
THE SPIRIT OF GOD BEARS WITNESS
CHILDREN OF THE LORD ARE WE.
IF WITH HIM WE SUFFER. HE'LL BLESS
AND GLORIFIED WE WILL BE.
105. THERE IS NOW NO CONDEMNATION
THERE IS NOW NO CONDEMNATION
FOR US WHO ARE IN JESUS.
WE ARE FILLED WITH JUBILATION

FOR HE FROM JUDGEMENT FREES US.
WE WALK NOT NOW AFTER THE FLESH
BUT WE WALK IN THE SPIRIT.
OUR INNER MAN HE DOES REFRESH
WHEN HIS WORD SPEAKS WE HEAR IT.
CHORUS
THERE IS NOW NO CONDEMNATION
FROM THE LAW WE ARE SET FREE.
WE WILL PRAISE HIM FOR SALVATION
BOTH NOW AND ETERNALLY.
II
FOR WHAT THE LAW COULD NEVER DO
BECAUSE OUR FLESH WAS SO WEAK.
GOD SENT HIS SON TO TAKE FLESH TOO
TO GIVE HOPE WHERE ALL WAS BLEAK.
FOR IN HIS FLESH HE CONDEMNED SIN
AND THE LAW HE DID FULFILL.
NOW WE CAN HAVE HIS PEACE WITHIN
BECAUSE OF CALVARY'S HILL.
106. LIFE'S PROBLEM IS NOT GOD'S LAW
LIFE'S PROBLEM IS NOT GOD'S LAW
BUT SIN THAT IS WITHIN US.
FROM WHAT'S RIGHTEOUS WE WITHDRAW
THAT'S WHY GOD SENT US JESUS.
THE LAW IS PURE AND HOLY

BUT SIN USED IT AS A KEY
DESIGNED TO BE GOOD SOLELY
IT PRODUCED DEATH WITHIN ME.
CHORUS
THE LAW CAN'T EVER SAVE ME
BECAUSE OF A FLAW WITHIN.
BUT THERE'S A WAY TO BE FREE
JESUS DIED FOR EVERY SIN.
II
HE ALONE HAS PAID THE PRICE
THAT CAN BREAK THE CHAIN OF SIN.
JUST RECEIVE HIS SACRIFICE
AND NEW LIFE YOU CAN BEGIN.
HE'S THE ONLY WAY TO FREEDOM
FROM THE LAW THAT LEADS TO DEATH.
SO HEED HIS KNOCK AND LET HIM COME
AND GIVE YOU NEW LIFE AND BREATH.
107. SUN OF HEAVEN
OH, I'M LONGING FOR THE DAY
WHEN ALL NIGHTS ARE PASSED AWAY.
WHEN THE GLOOM OF TIME IS O'ER
AND THE SUN SHINES EVER MORE.
WHEN GOD'S SUN OF LOVE RISES
THERE WILL BE GREAT SURPRISES.
WONDERS BEYOND ALL COMPARE
SCENES OF BEAUTY EVERYWHERE.

OH, MY HEART WITH JOY IS STIRRED
JUST TO THINK OF ALL I'VE HEARD.
HOW MUCH GREATER WILL IT BE
REALLY BEING THERE TO SEE,
THANK YOU JESUS YOU'RE THE WAY
GUIDE ME TO THAT ENDLESS DAY.
LET ME NE'ER IN DARKNESS STRAY
BUT YOUR LORDSHIP E'ER OBEY.
SUN OF HEAVEN SHINE ON ME
FROM ALL DARKNESS SET ME FREE.
TILL THE DAY THE DEAD YOU RAISE
HELP ME FILL THIS LIFE WITH PRAISE.
