No, Not One!

 

No, Not One!

Jesus is not only our friend, but also our teacher, our comforter. Our great physician. He’s our confidant, and our protector. He is the light that lights our way and guide and directs us. He invites us to join Him in heaven and will never leave us while we are here on earth.

Lyrics by Johnson Oatman, Jr., arranged by George C. Hugg

“There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus, no, not one! No, not one! None else could heal all our soul’s diseases, no, not one! No, not one!

No friend like Him is so high and holy, No, not one! No, not one! And yet no friend is so meek and lowly, no, not one! No, not one!

There’s not an hour that He is not near us, No, not one! No, not one! No night so dark but His love can cheer us, no, not one! No, not one!

Did ever saint find this friend forsake him? No, not one! No, not one! Or sinner find that He would not take him? No, not one! No, not one!

Was ever a gift like the Savior given? No, not one! No, not one! Will He refuse us a home in heaven? No, not one! No, not one!

Jesus knows all about our struggles, He will guide till the day is done; There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus, No, not one! No, not one!

He Will Answer Every Prayer

 

He Will Answer Every Prayer

No matter what we ask God, He will hear our prayer and He will answer it. His answer may be yes, no, or wait awhile. Regardless, God has our best interest in mind and will do whatever is right for us. There is no one else who knows what we need at any given time or circumstance. We can trust His promises, and He promises that He will hear and answer our requests.

Lyrics by Mary Bernstecher, arranged by Daniel B. Towner

“God has given you His promise, that He hears and answers every prayer; He will heed your supplication, if you cast on Him your care.

He will not withhold one blessing, He will give you what is best; God will answer by His Spirit, everyone who makes a request.

He can hear the great petition, and the smallest, over there; unto God pray without ceasing, He will answer every prayer.

Take to God your plans and failures, anytime and anywhere; No one ever has gone unanswered, for He answers every prayer.

He will answer every prayer, He will answer every prayer, go to Him in faith believing, He will answer every prayer.

My Redeemer

 

My Redeemer

Salvation comes from heaven downward, not earth upward. We cannot earn our salvation. It is a gift of mercy from God Himself. There are no limitations. Christ died on the cross with a perfect record and our imperfect record was given to Him. “Since we have been made right with God by our faith, we have peace with God.” Romans 5:1 Where man fails, God excels. Praise the Lord!

Lyrics by Phillip P. Bliss, arranged by James McGranahan

“I will sing of my Redeemer, and His wondrous love to me; On the cruel cross He suffered, from the curse to set me free.

I will tell the wondrous story, how my lost estate to save, in His boundless love and mercy, He the ransom freely gave.

I will praise my dear Redeemer, His triumphant power I’ll tell, how the victory He giveth over sin, and death, and hell.

I will sing of my Redeemer, and His heavenly love to me; He from death to life hath brought me, Son of God with Him to be.

Sing, oh sing, of my Redeemer, with His blood He purchased me. On the cross He sealed my pardon, paid the debt and made me free.”

Love Lifted Me

 

Love Lifted Me

There comes a time when sin overtakes us and we hit rock bottom. Once we do that, there seems to be no way out, no one to turn to. But God always provides a way out, and He is the one to turn to. When we turn to Him, He lifts us up and brings us back to the place we belong. Straight into His arms. He wants us all to be saved and today is not too late. Give yourself to Jesus, confess, repent and be baptized, for Jesus is the way to salvation.

Lyrics by James Rowe. Arranged by Howard E. Smith

“I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore, very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more; But the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry, from the waters lifted me, now safe am I.

All my heart to Him I give, ever to Him I’ll cling, in His blessed presence live, ever His praises sing. Love so mighty and so true merits my soul’s best songs; Faithful, loving service, to Him belongs.

Souls in danger, look above, Jeus completely saves; He will lift you by His love out of the angry waves. He’s the Master of the sea, billows His will obey; He your Savior wants to be, be saved today.

Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help, Love lifted me. Love lifted me.”

Jesus is All the World to Me

 

Jesus is All the World to Me.

I love this song because it speaks my heart. Jesus is all the world to me. I know I can trust Him with everything I have, everything I do and any place I go. He watches over me and He never leaves me. He knows my every thought and every care. He listens to me and He answers my prayers. What more can anyone ask for in someone who Loves us so much!

Lyrics by Will H. Thompson, arranged by Will L. Thompson

“Jesus is all the world to me, my life, my joy, my all; He is my strength from day to day, without Him I would fall. When I am sad, to Him I go, No other one can cheer me so; When I am sad, He makes me glad, He’s, my friend.

Jesus is all the world to me, my friend in trials sore; I go to Him for blessings, and He gives them o’er and o’er. He sends the sunshine and the rain, He sends the harvest’s golden grain; Sunshine and rain, harvest of grain, He’s, my friend.

Jesus is all the world to me, and true to Him I’ll be Oh, how could I this friend deny, when He’s so true to me?  Following Him I know I’m right, He watches over me day and night; following Him, by day and night, He’s, my friend.

Jesus is all the world to me, I want no better friend; I trust Him now, I’ll trust Him when life’s fleeting days shall end. Beautiful life with such a friend; Beautiful life that has no end; Eternal life, eternal joy, He’s, my friend.”

He Leadeth Me

 

He Leadeth Me

It is a blessed thought to know wherever we are, whatever we are doing. God is always there to lead us. Even in our deepest despair, in our gloomiest thoughts, Jesus is there to lead us through our sufferings. Take the hand of God and allow Him to lead you wherever you may go. Have faith and trust that He knows what is best for you and will lead you down the path to salvation.

Lyrics by Joseph H. Gilmore, arranged by William B. Bradbury

“He leadeth, me O blessed thought! O words with heavenly comfort fraught! What’re I do, where’re I be, still tis God’s hand that leadeth me.

Sometimes mid scenes of deepest gloom, sometimes where Eden’s bowers bloom, by waters still, o’er troubled sea, still tis His hand that leadeth me.

Lord, I would clasp Thy hand in mine, nor ever murmur nor repine, content, whatever lot I see, since tis my God that leadeth me.

And when my task on earth is done, when, by Thy grace, the victory’s won, even death’s cold wave I will not flee, since God through Jordan leadeth me,

He leadeth me, He leadeth me! By His own hand He leadeth me! His faithful follower I would be, for by His had He leadeth me.”

Jesus Has Lifted Me

 

            Jesus Has Lifted Me

Have you ever been spiritually moved? If you have, you know it exhilarates you and you feel like Jesus has lifted you up in His glory. Nothing you have experienced here on earth is going to compare to the feelings you have when Jesus lifts you up to His glory above. It is because He loves us so much that He wants to lift us all up to be with Him in heaven. Give up your life to self and live your life in service to Him and He will lift you up.

Lyrics by Avis B. Christensen, arranged by Haldor Lillenas

“Out of the depths to the glory above, I have been lifted in wonderful love; From every fetter my spirit is free, for Jesus has lifted me!

Out of the world in the heavenly rest, into the land of the ransomed and blessed; there in the glory with Him I shall be, for Jesus has lifted me!

Out of myself into Him I adore, there to a bide in His love evermore; Through endless ages His glory to see, My Jesus has lifted me!

Jesus has lifted me! Jesus has lifted me! Out of the night into glorious light, Yes, Jesus has lifted me!”
