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!”

I Love to Tell the Story

 

I love to Tell the Story

Put a group of bible Trivia players together and you will find various levels of knowledge. Some know the Bible well enough to get most of the answers right, others can remember some of the stories and others may not know the story at all. Bible Trivia is a great place to learn, but an even greater place, besides studying the Bible yourself is by word of mouth. I love to tell the story of Jesus. It’s the only story that rings true in every sense. It’s the only story that can truly encourage a person and offers peace.

Lyrics A. Catherine Hankey, arranged by William G. Fischer

“I love to tell the story of unseen things above, of Jesus and His glory, of Jesus and His love, I love to tell the story, because I know tis true; it satisfies my longings as nothing else can do.

I love to tell the story; more wonderful it seems than all the golden fancies of all our golden dreams. I love to tell the story; it did so much for me; and that is just the reason I tell it now to thee.

I love to tell the story, tis pleasant to repeat what seems, each time I tell it, more wonderfully sweet. I love to tell the story, for some have never heard the message of salvation from God’s own holy word.

I love to tell the story, for those who know it best seem hungering and thirsting to hear if like the rest. And when, in scenes of glory, I sing the new, new song, “Twill be the old, old story that I have loved so long.”

I love to tell the story, “Twill be my theme in glory to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love.”

I Love Him Because He First Loved Me

 

I love Him Because He First Loved Me

Not only did Jesus die on the cross for you and I, but He has also consistently throughout our lifetime done so much to show His love for us. I Love Him because He first Loved Me and He Loves you and I still and always will forever and ever. Just contemplate How He shows His love for you daily. He is always with us, always listening to and tending to our needs. He bids us to come to Him and He will lift our burdens. Pray your prayers and see for yourself His answers.

Lyrics by Frank E. Roush, arranged by J.E. Sturgis

“Christ Jesus my Lord from heaven came, to save me from guilt and sin and shame; His death on the cross of Calvary brought pardon and gave me liberty.

He sweat drops of blood in prayer for me, heart-broken in dark Gethsemane, while angels from blessed realms of light gave strength to His aching heart that night.

Up Calvary’s hill the cross He bore, and for me a crown of thorns He wore; They nailed Him upon the tree to die, then darkness came over the earth and sky.

My Lord who was slain by sinful man, a wonderful friend to me has been; He rose from the tomb with victory, and now I love Him who first loved me.

I love Him because He first loved me, He first loved me, He first loved me; I love Him because He first loved me and died on the cross of Calvary.”

I Know Whom I have Believed

 

I Know Whom I have Believed

If you ever looked back over your life and recognized the sins you have committed, you might be like David and ask “What is man that you are mindful of him?” We are all sinners and have fallen short of the glory of God. So, what makes us worthy of God’s love and compassion? Why does He consider us special in His eyes? God’s grace is overflowing even to you and I and for me I am thankful for it.

Lyrics by Daniel W. Whittle, arranged by James McGranahan

“I know not why God’s wondrous grace to me He hath made known, nor why unworthy, Christ in love redeemed me for His own.

I know not how this saving faith to me He did impart, nor how believing in His word wrought peace within my heart.

I know not how the Spirit moves, convincing men of sin, revealing Jesus through the Word, creating faith in Him.

I know not what of good or ill may be reserved for me, of weary ways or golden days, before His face I see.

I know not when my Lord may come, at night or noonday fair, nor if I walk the vale with Him, or “meet Him in the air.”

But “I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I’ve committed unto Him against that day.”

I Belong to the King

 

                                    I Belong to the King

“But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven.” Hebrews 12:22-23. O How wonderful it is to belong to the King and be accepted into this glorious city!

Lyrics by Ida L. Reed, arranged by Maurice A. Clifton

“I belong to the King, I’m a child of His love, I shall dwell in His palace so fair; For He tells of its bliss in yon heaven above, And His children in splendor shall share.

I belong to the King, and He loves me I know, For His mercy and kindness, so free, are unceasingly mine, wheresoever I go, and my refuge unfailing is He.

I belong to the King, and His promise is sure that we all shall be gathered at last in His kingdom above, by life’s waters so pure, when this life with its trials is past.

I belong to the King, I’m a child of His love, and He never forsakes His own; He will call me someday to His palace above, I shall dwell by His glorious throne.

A Shelter in the Time of Storm

 

                                    A Shelter in the Time of Storm

Whether it be a physical storm, mental or spiritual storm God is in control. We can trust Him with our life and know that His arms will protect us. No harm will come to us that He doesn’t know about and can make right. No matter what our circumstance is God knows all about it and He will fight any fight we come against. All we have to do is trust and let go of our desire to fight the good fight ourselves.

Lyrics by Vernon J. Charlesworth, arranged by Ira D. Sankey

“The Lord’s our Rock, in Him we hide, A shelter in the time of storm; Secure whatever ill betide, A shelter in the time of storm.

A shade by day, defence by night, A shelter in the time of storm; No fears alarm, no foes affright, a shelter in the time of storm.

The raging storms may round us beat, a shelter in the time of storm; We’ll never leave our safe retreat, a shelter in the time of storm.

O Rock divine, O Refuge dear, a shelter in the time of storm; Be Thou our helper ever near, a shelter in the time of storm.

O, Jesus is a Rock in a weary land, a weary land, a weary land; Oh, Jesus is a Rock in a weary land, a shelter in the time of storm.

A Child of The King

 

                                                A Child of the King

Our God holds all the riches of heaven and earth. There is none richer. Everything we own belongs to God. We would have nothing without Him. Our Savior came down and became the poorest of poor, He lived as we did and now He is in heaven asking the Father to pardon us so that He can adopt us and bring us home with Him. When He does, we will be living among the rich in a mansion prepared just for us. We are a child of God, and we can sing all glory to God.

Lyrics by Harriet E. Buell, arranged by John B Summers

“My Father is rich in houses and lands; He hold the wealth of the world in His hands! Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold, His coffers are full, He has riches untold.

My Father’s own Son, the Savior of men, once wandered on earth as the poorest of them; But now He is pleading our pardon on high, that we may be His when He comes by and by.

I once was an outcast stranger on earth, a sinner by choice, an alien by birth; But I’ve been adopted, my name’s written down, an heir to a mansion, a robe, and a crown.

A tent or a cottage, why should I care? They’re building a palace for me over there; Though exiled from home, yet still I may sing: All glory to God, I’m a child of the King.

I’m a child of the King, a child of the king: with Jesus my Savior I’m a child of the King.

Christ Liveth in Me

 

                                                Christ Liveth in Me

There may come a time in a Christians life that they may choose to go their own way and live the way they want and not within God’s will. Maybe the temptation was too great, and they walk away from God. It may feel good for a time, living their own way, but in the end, it will lead to destruction. “There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death.” Proverbs 14:12NIV

Lyrics by Daniel W. Whittle, arranged by James McGranahan

“Once far from God and dead in sin, no light my heart could see; But in God’s Word the light I found, now Christ lives in me.

As rays of light from yonder sun, the flowers of earth set free, so life and light and love came forth from Christ living in me.

As lives the flower within the seed, as in the cone the tree, so, praise the God of truth and grace, His Spirit dwells in me.

With longing all my heart is filled, that like Him I may be, as on the wondrous thought I dwell that Christ lives in me.

Christ lives in me, Christ lives in me, Oh! What a salvation this, that Christ lives in me.”

He Included Me

 

                                    He Included Me

Even though Jesus died on the cross many years ago, He didn’t do it for just those who were there at the cross or all the people that existed in that time. He died for all the generations that came after that time. That included you and I. When the scriptures were written back in Moses’ time and the revelation of the future time, those scriptures were written for not only that time but for all the future time periods. That includes you and I. How wonderful to know that God thought of us even before we existed on this earth. He loved us then and He loves us now.

Lyrics by Johnson Oatman, Jr., arranged by Hampton H. Sewell

“I am so happy in Christ today, that I go singing along my way, yes, I’m so happy to know and say, “Jesus included me too.”

Gladly I read, “Whosoever may come to the fountain of life today;” But when I read it I always say, “Jesus included me too.”

Ever God’s Spirit is saying, “Come!” hear the bride saying, “No longer roam;” But I am sure while they’re calling home, “Jesus included me too.”

“Freely come drink” words the soul to thrill! O with what joy they my heart do fill! For when He said, “Whosever will,” Jesus included me too.

Jesus included me, yes, He included me, when the Lord said “whosoever” He included me; Jesus included me, Yes, He included me, When the Lord said “Whosoever”, He included me. Amen.

Christ Receiveth Sinful Men

 

                               Christ Receiveth Sinful Men

Whether you are the worst sinner in the world or an occasional sinner, of which there is no such thing. We are all sinners who have fallen short of the glory of God. Jesus receives them all. His grace His free to all who will accept it. He will give you rest and does not condemn those who reach out to Him. Don’t linger any longer, come to Jesus, He receives sinful men/women.

Lyrics by Erdmann Newumeister, arranged by James McGranahan

“Sinners Jesus will receive; sound this word of grace to all who the heavenly pathway leave, all who linger, all who fall.

Come, and He will give you rest; Trust Him, for His word is plain; He will take the sinfulest; Christ receiveth sinful men.

Now my heart condemns me no, pure before the law I stand; He who cleansed me from all spot, satisfied its last demand.

Christ receiveth sinful men, even me with all my sin; Purged from every spot and stain, Heaven with Him I enter in.

Sing it over and over again; Christ receiveth sinful men; make the message clear and plain: Christ receiveth sinful men.”

Burdens Are Lifted at Calvary

 

                                    Burdens Are Lifted at Calvary

Everybody deals with sorrow and heartache at one time or another in a lifetime. It’s hard to deal with sadness in the moment and sometimes it can seem overwhelming. When we look to Jesus and trust that He grants us wisdom and understanding, then clarity comes to us and all our burdens are lifted. Look to the cross, He carried all our burdens to the cross and leaves us with His grace.

Lyrics by John M. Moore, arranged by John M. Moore

“Days are filled with sorrow and care, hearts are lonely and drear; Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Jesus is very near.

Cast your care on Jesus today, leave your worry and fear; Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Jesus is very near.

Troubled soul, the Savior can see every heart-ache and tear; Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Jesus is very near.

Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Calvary, Calvary; Burdens are lifted at Calvary, Jesus is very near.”

All things in Jesus

 

                                    All things in Jesus

Many people are looking for something to fill the hole inside them that never seems satisfied. Some search for it in alcohol, others in drugs, some search for it in immoral behavior. There is only one place, one person that can fill that hole. It is in Jesus Christ. He can provide all your needs. He can take away your sorrows, and He can help you overcome whatever sin you might indulge in. Turn to Jesus today, confess your sins, repent and accept His invitation to build a relationship with Him.

Lyrics by Harry D. Loes, arranged by Harry D. Loes

“Friends all around me are trying to find what the heart yearns for, by sin undermined; I have the secret, I know where it’s found; Only true pleasures in Jesus abound.

Some carry burdens whose weight has for years crushed them with sorrow and blinded with tears, yet one stands ready to help them just now, if they will humbly in penitence bow.

No other name thrills the joy-chords within, and through none else is remission of sin; He knows the pain of the heart surely tried, both need and want will by Him be supplied.

Jesus is all this poor world needs today, blindly they strive for sin darkens their way; O to draw back the grim curtains of night, one glimpse of Jesus and all will be bright!

All that I want is in Jesus, He satisfies, joy He supplies; Life would be worthless without Him, all things in Jesus I find.

Come, Ye Disconsolate

 

                                                Come, Ye Disconsolate

There is a place where you can take your sorrows, wounded heart and struggles. It is at the throne of God. Kneel and pray, ask Him to heal you and be with you in your struggles. He is there and He is willing to listen and answer your prayer. You can tell Him anything. Nothing surprises God. He wants to hear from you and guide you to the light. Take all your sorrows, guilt and questions to the throne of God. He will not turn you away and He will never leave you in your time of need.

Lyrics by Thomas Moore, arranged by Samuel Webbe

“Come, ye disconsolate, wherever you languish; Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has not sorrow that heaven cannot heal.

Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, “Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot cure.

Here see the bread of life; see waters flowing forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.” Amen

A New Name in Glory

 

                                    A New Name in Glory

Is your name written in the Book of Life? If it is then your sins have been forgiven and you have been saved by God’s grace. His blood that He shed on the cross for you and I have been shed to make us whole. The relationship you have with God’s son, is the only thing that can get your name written in the Book of Life. It is through Jesus Christ that we are saved.

Lyrics by C. Austin Miles

“I was once a sinner, but I came pardon to receive from my Lord; This was freely given, and I found that He always kept His word.

I was humbly kneeling at the cross, fearing naught but God’s angry frown; when the heavens opened and I saw that my name was written down.

In the Book tis written, “saved by Grace,” O the joy that came to my soul! Now I am forgiven, and I know by the blood I am made whole.

There’s a new name written down in glory, and its mine, O yes, it’s mine! And the white-robed angels sing the story, “A sinner has come home.” For there’s a new name written down in glory, and its mine, O yes, it’s mine! With my sins forgiven I am bound for heaven, nevermore to roam.”

Does Jesus Care?

 

                                                Does Jesus Care?

Amid heartache and pain, we often ask if Jesus cares. Is He here, does He see what we are going through. We may have lost a loved one and so dear to our heart. We may have stumbled and failed and seems there is no way out. Does Jesus care? Oh yes, without a shadow of a doubt. If you cry, He cries, His heart is tender enough to care. He never looks down on us but looks upon us as a mother does her child.  He knows what we go through and He cares enough to lift our burden and take it upon Himself. He cares enough to grant us the kind of peace that passes understanding. He wants us to ask for it, freely He gives.

Lyrics by Frank E. Graef, arranged by J. Lincoln Hall

“Does Jesus care when my heart is pained too deeply for mirth and song; as the burdens press, and the cares distress, and the way grows weary and long?

Does Jesus care when my way is dark with a nameless dread and fear? As the daylight fades into deep night shades, does He care enough to be near?

Does Jesus care when I’ve tried and failed to resist some temptation strong; When for my deep grief I find no relief, though my tears flow all the night long?

Does Jesus care when I’ve said goodbye to the dearest on earth to me, and my sad heart aches till it nearly breaks, is it aught to Him? Does He see?

O yes, He cares; I know He cares; His heart is touched with my grief; When the days are weary, the long nights dreary, I know my Savior cares. He cares.”

He's a Friend of Mine

 

                                                He’s a Friend of Mine

Everything we have, everything we see belongs to Christ and He is willing to share everything with us. Christ is such a good friend that He provides for us in all our needs. He shares His beauty in the landscapes around us. He shares the sun, moon and stars at night for us to gaze upon. And someday, He will share the glory of His throne with us and all the angels singing will join us in singing, He’s a Friend of Mine.

Lyrics by John H. Sammis, arranged by Daniel B. Towner

“Why should I charge my soul with care? The wealth of every mine belongs to Christ, God’s Son and heir, and He’s a friend of mine.

The silver moon, the golden sun, the countless stars that shine, are His alone, yes, every one, and He’s a friend of mine.

He daily spreads a glorious feast, and at His table dine the whole creation, man and beast, and He’s a friend of mine.

And when He comes in bright array, and leads the conquering line, it will be glory then to say, and He’s a friend of mine.

Yes, He’s a friend of mine, and He with me does all things share; since all is Christ’ and Christ is mine, why should I have a care? For Jesus is a friend of mine.

Throw Out the Lifeline

 

                                    Throw Out the Lifeline

What if today was the day Jesus comes to take us home? Are you ready? Are your friends and family ready? We must reach out to those who are not ready and throw them a life-line before it’s too late. The time is now to reach out and save a soul. Don’t wait, you may not get another chance. Teach them Jesus’ plan of salvation, help them to know Jesus and build on a relationship with Him. If you are one who needs to know Jesus, I encourage you to read God’s word and reach out to those who have the kind of relationship with Jesus that you need. Praying always for those who are in need of God’s grace.

Lyrics by Edward S. Ufford, arranged by George c. Stebbins.

“Throw out the Life-Line across the dark wave, there is a brother whom someone should save;  Somebody’s brother! Oh, who then will dare to throw out the Life-Line, his peril to share?

Throw out the Life-Line with hand quick and strong; Why do you tarry, why linger so long? See! He is sinking; oh, hasten today and throw out the Life-Boat! Away, then, away!

Throw out the Life-Line to danger fraught men, sinking in anguish where you’ve never been; Winds of temptation and billows of woe will soon hurl them out where the dark waters flow.

Soon will the season of rescue be over, soon will they drift to eternity’s shore, haste then, my brother, no time for delay, but throw out the Life-Line and save them today.

Throw out the Life-Line! Throw out the Life-Line! Someone is drifting away; Throw out the Life-Line! Thrown out the Life-Line! Someone is sinking today.

Help Somebody Today

 

                                    Help Somebody Today

Somebody just got diagnosed with a horrible disease; somebody just got notice from their spouse that their marriage is over. Somebody feels all alone and lonely. Somebody is overwhelmed with so many things happening at once. Everybody is in need for one thing or another, it is up to us to notice and lend a helping hand. Maybe it is just a smile, or a kind word, or a prayer, or a time spent with them away from their troubles. Whatever it is, God has placed that somebody in front of you for a purpose. Let Him guide you in helping them.

Lyrics by Carrie E. Breck, arranged by Charles H, Gabriel

“Look all around you, find someone in need, Help somebody today! Though it be little, a neighborly deed- Help somebody today!

Many are waiting a kind, loving word, Help somebody today! Thou has a message, O let it be heard, Help somebody today!

Many have burdens too heavy to bear, Help somebody today! Grief is the portion of some everywhere, Help somebody today!

Some are discouraged and weary in heart, Help somebody today! Some one the journey to heaven should start, Help somebody today!

Help somebody today.. Somebody along life’s way; Let sorrow be ended, the friendless befriended, Oh, help somebody today!

A Passion for Souls

 

                                                A Passion for Souls

A passionate person is an individual that embraces God and wants to share the message to any person who needs to know God. They set a godly example that makes others say, “I want to live like that.” They have a zeal for Christ that inspire and motivate those around them to live a positive life. We must all have a passion for souls and want them to be able to go to heaven along with us.

Lyrics by Herbert G. Tovey, arranged by Foss L. Fellers

“Give me a passion for souls, dear Lord, a passion to save the lost; Oh that Thy love were by all adored, and welcomed at any cost.

Though there are dangers untold and stern confronting me in the way, willingly still would I go, nor turn, but trust Thee for grace each day.

How shall this passion for souls be mine? Lord, make Thou the answer clear; Help me to throw out the old lifeline to those who are struggling near.

Jesus, I long, I long to be winning men who are lost, and constantly sinning; O may this hour be one of beginning the story of pardon to tell.

Rescue the Perishing

 

                                    Rescue the Perishing

“Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness.” Galatians 6:1, “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, gentleness, self-control.” Galatians 5:22.

Lyrics by Fanny J. Crosby, arranged by William H. Doane

“Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep over the erring one, lift up the fallen, tell them of Jesus the mighty to save.

Though they are slighting Him, still He is waiting, waiting the penitent child to receive; Plead with them earnestly, plead with them gently, He will forgive if they only believe.

Down in the human heart, crushed by the tempter, feelings lie buried that grace can restore; Touched by a loving heart, wakened by kindness, chords that are broken will vibrate once more.

Rescue the perishing, duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide; Back to the narrow way patiently win them; tell the poor wanderer a Savior has died.

Rescue the perishing, care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save.”

No Other Plea

 

                                                No Other Plea

When we pray to God, we must believe that He will answer. We must come to Him without doubts. Believe that He is with us and hears our pleas. We must believe that He will take care of us and that His way is better than our way. God has our best interest in mind and will bless us as we believe in Him.

Lyrics by Lidie H. Edmunds, arranged by William J. Kirkpatrick

“My faith has found a resting place, not in device nor creed; I trust the ever living One, His wounds for me shall plead.

Enough for me that Jesus saves, this ends my fear and doubt; A sinful soul I come to Him, He’ll never cast me out.

My heart is leaning on the Word, the written word of God, Salvation by my Savior’s name, Salvation through His blood.

My great physician heals the sick, the lost He came to save; For me His precious blood He shed, for me His life He gave.

I need no other argument, I need no other plea, It is enough that Jesus died, and that He died for me.”
