I Long to Glorify Thee

 

                                    I Long to Glorify Thee

Once you become a child of God, He sends His Holy Spirit to dwell within you. It’s because Christ, died and rose again that we were made free from our sins. Now we can praise His name and live for Him and give our all to Him. Now we can look forward to the day He comes again to take us home with Him. We should be looking forward to the day that we can praise Him face to face. In all that we say and do, let us glorify His name.

Lyrics by Ralph Manchee, arranged by Herman Voss

“Christ my Lord gave all for me, that from sin I might be free, now in me He lives again, Glory to His precious name.

Christ my Lord arose and lives, over all the victory gives, now in Him I live anew, Praise His Name, I know it’s true.

Christ my Lord will come one day, take me home with Him to stay, then anew His praise I’ll sing: Reign with Him my Lord and King.

I long to glorify Thee, dear Lord, I long to glorify Thee. In all I do, in all I say, I long to glorify Thee.”

The Love of God

 

                                                The Love of God

No one could ever express enough the totality of God’s Love. There are no words that can describe it to the fullest. You can say it is brighter than the brightest star. It is higher than the highest mountain and deeper than the deepest sea. You cannot measure the time span of God’s Love. God’s love is everlasting and the most important aspect of God’s Love is the fact that God is Love. If you know God, you know Love. Every aspect of God is Love.

Lyrics by Frederick M. Lehman, arranged by Frederick M. Lehman

“The Love of God is greater far than tongue or pen can ever tell; It goes beyond the highest star and reaches to the lowest hell; The guilty pair, bowed down with care, God gave His Son to win; His erring child He reconciled, and pardoned from his sin.

When Hoary time shall pass away, and earthly thrones and kingdoms fall; When men who here refuse to pray, on rocks and hills and mountains call; God’s love, so sure, shall still endure, all measureless and strong; Redeeming race to Adam’s race -The saints and angels’ song.

Could we with ink the ocean fill, and were the skies of parchment made, were every stalk on earth a quill, and every man ascribe by trade; To write the love of God above would drain the oceans dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, though stretched from sky to sky.

Oh, love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure; the saints and angel’s sung”

Jesus Never Fails

 

                                                Jesus Never Fails

Here on earth, we might have many friends. Some come; some go. True friends stick around when times get hard, others stay far away. Jesus, however, is always near and never leaves. He doesn’t fail us when things get tough. We can depend on him in the light of day and the darkness of night.

Lyrics by Arthur A. Luther, arranged by Arthur A. Luther

“Earthly friends my prove untrue, doubts and fears assail; One still loves and cares for you; Jesus never fails.

Though the sky be dark and drear, fierce and strong the gale, just remember He is near, and He will not fail.

In life’s dark and bitter hour love will still prevail; Trust His everlasting power, Jesus will not fail.

Jesus never fails, Jesus never fails; Heaven and earth may pass away but Jesus never fails.

He Lives

 

                                                        He lives

Our Savior has risen from the grave, and He is in our world today; Look around and see His Hands of Mercy and His loving care. He leads us through the storms of life, and we have no need to despair. Someday He will come in person, and we will be singing eternal hallelujahs.

Lyrics by Alfred H. Ackley, arranged by Alfred H. Ackley

“I serve a risen Savior, He’s in the world today; I know that He is living, whatever men may say; I see His hand of Mercy, I hear His voice of cheer, and just the time I need Him He’s always near.

In all the world around me I see His loving care, and though my heart grows weary I never will despair; I know that He is leading through all the stormy blast, the day of His appearing will come at last.

Rejoice, rejoice, O Christian, lift up your voice and sing Eternal hallelujahs to Jesus Christ the King! The Hope of all who seek Him, the help of all who find, none other is so living, so good and kind.

He lives; He lives. Christ Jesus lives today! He walks with me and talks with me along life’s narrow way. He lives, He lives, salvation to impart! You ask me how I know He lives? He lives within my heart.

The Unveiled Christ

 

The Unveiled Christ

Mark 15:38 -39 “then the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. So, when the Centurion, who stood opposite Him, saw that He cried out like this and breathed His last, he said “Truly this Man was the Son of God.” Jesus Christ who died on the cross is now in heaven with His Father. He hears our prayers and expresses them to God. He is the true giver of Love.

Lyrics by N.B. Herrell, arranged by N.B. Herrell

“Once our blessed Christ of beauty was veiled off from human view; But through suffering, death and sorrow He has rent the veil in two.

Now He is with God the Father, interceding there for you; For He is the mighty conqueror since He rent the veil in two.

Holy angels bow before Him, men of earth give praises due; For He is the well beloved since He rent the veil in two.

Throughout time and endless ages, Heights and depths of love so true; He alone can be the giver since He rent the veil in two.

O behold the Man of sorrows; O behold Him in plain view; Lo! He is the mighty conqueror, since He rent the veil in two, Lo! He is the mighty conqueror since He rent the veil in two.

The Name of Jesus

 

                The Name of Jesus

The one name that should be on everyone’s lips is the name of Jesus. He should be our top priority and if He is, His name would be repeated. Not in a profane or derogatory way but as Love. Jesus is love. If you have ever experienced grief, then you know how sweet His name can be if you hold tight to Him. Praise His name daily and let the blessings flow.

Lyrics by W.C. Martin, arranged by Edmund S. Lorenz

“The name of Jesus is so sweet, I love its music to repeat; It makes my joys full and complete, the precious name of Jesus.

I love the name of Him whose heart knows all my griefs and bears a part, who bids all anxious fears depart, I love the name of Jesus.

The name I fondly love to hear, it never fails my heart to cheer, its music dries the falling tear; Exalt the name of Jesus.

No word of man can ever tell how sweet the name I love so well; Oh, let its praises ever swell, oh, praise the name of Jesus.

“Jesus”, oh, how sweet the name! “Jesus” every day the same; “Jesus”, let all saints proclaim its worthy praise forever.

The Great Physician

 

The Great Physician

Jesus is my Great Physician. I put my faith and trust in Him that He will heal me. If not on earth, He will heal me in heaven. There is nothing that comes upon me that God doesn’t provide an outcome. He promises that He will not give us any more than we can handle. Put your trust and faith in Him and watch Him work.

Lyrics by William Hunter, arranged by John H. Stockton

“The Great Physician now is near, the sympathizing Jesus; He speaks the drooping heart to cheer, Oh, hear the voice of Jesus.

Your many sins are all forgiven, Oh, hear the voice of Jesus; Go on your way in peace to heaven, and wear a crown with Jesus.

All glory to the dying Lamb! I now believe in Jesus; I love the blessed Savior’s name, I love the name of Jesus.

And when to that bright world above we rise to be with Jesus; We’ll sing around the throne of love, His name, the name of Jesus.

sweetest note in seraph song, sweetest name on mortal tongue; Sweetest carol ever sung, Jesus, blessed Jesus.
