Great is Thy Faithfulness

 

Great is Thy Faithfulness

God is so faithful, there is none other more faithful. He is always there for us in every situation and in every moment, day and night. His mercy endures forever and He is the same yesterday, today and forever. It is because of Him we have hope for the future. He bids us come to Him for provisions, for care, but most of all for Love. He forgives and forgets and wants to build a relationship with us.

Lyrics by Thomas O. Chisholm, arranged by William N. Runyan

“Great is Thy faithfulness,” O God my Father, there is no shadow of turning with Thee; Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not; As Thou hast been Thou forever wilt be.

Summer and winter, and spring-time and harvest, sun, moon and stars in their courses above, join with all nature in manifold witness, to Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth, Thy own dear presence to cheer and to guide; strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow, blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside!

“Great is Thy faithfulness! Great is Thy faithfulness!” Morning by morning new mercies I see; All I have needed Thy hand hath provided. “Great is Thy faithfulness,” “Lord, unto me!”

Ye Must Be Born Again

 

Ye Must Be Born Again

Nicodemus came to Jesus at night and asked Him what must he do to be saved. Jesus answered, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to the spirit.” John 3:3-7. Being born again means to be baptized, to give yourself up to the watery grave and rise forth as a newborn Christian.

Lyrics by William T. Sleeper, arranged by George C. Stebbins

“A ruler once came to Jesus by night, to ask Him the way of salvation and light; The Master made answer in word true and plain.

Ye children of men, attend to the word so solemnly uttered by Jesus the Lord; and let not this message to you be in vain.

Oh, ye who would enter that glorious rest, and sing with the ransomed the song of the blest; The life everlasting if ye would obtain.

A dear one in heaven thy heart yearns to see at the beautiful gate may be watching for thee; Then list to the note of this solemn refrain.

“Ye must be born again.” “Ye must me born again, Ye must be born again; I verily, verily say unto thee, Ye must be born again.”

Wonderful Story of Love

 

Wonderful Story of Love

What is the wonderful story of Love? To me, it is knowing that God loved me so much that He sent His one and only Son to die for me. He left His words behind so that I could know Him, emulate Him and serve Him to the best of my ability. To know that someday, I will walk with Him before the throne of God and see all those who went on to Heaven before me. In the meantime, I will share God’s love with others, both in words and example.

Lyrics by J. M. Driver, arranged by J. M. Driver

“Wonderful story of love; tell it to me again; Wonderful story of love; Wake the immortal strain! Angels with rapture announce it. Shepherds with wonder receive it; Sinner, O won’t you believe it?

Wonderful story of love; Tho you are far away; Wonderful story of love; Still, He doth call today; Calling from Calvary’s mountain, down from the crystal bright fountain, even from the dawn of creation.

Wonderful story of love; Jesus provides a rest; Wonderful story of love; For all the pure and the blest; Rest in those mansions above us. With those who’ve gone on before us, singing the rapturous chorus.

Wonderful story of love. Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful! Wonderful story of love!

Whiter Than Snow

 

Whiter Than Snow

God wants you, not part of you, but all of you. He wants His Spirit to dwell within you. He wants your desires and focuses to be totally on Him. He wants His wisdom to become your wisdom. Once you surrender yourself to God, He will cleanse you and create in you a new heart. A heart that loves Him in return and loves those around you. You will have a servant heart and an attitude of gratitude. Lean not on your own understanding but totally lean on Jesus’. He will set you free and make you whole.

Lyrics by James Nicholson, arranged by William G. Fischer

“Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole; I want thee forever to live in my soul, break down every idol, cast out every foe.

Lord Jesus, look down from Thy throne in the skies, and help me to make a complete sacrifice; I give up myself, and whatever I know,

Lord Jesus, for this I most humbly entreat, I wait, blessed Lord, at Thy crucified feet; By faith my cleansing, I see Thy blood flow

Lord Jesus, Thou sees’ I patiently wait, come now, and within me  a new heart create; To those who have sought Thee, Thou never sadist, “No”,

Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Whiter than snow, yea, whiter than snow; Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.”

When Love Shines In

 

When Love Shines In

Love conquers all. When we approach a situation or a burden with love on our heart, it can make everything look better. We may not like some things in our life but if we look at it as part of God’s plan, and we know His plans are perfect, we can turn our thoughts to Love, and it will perfect our attitude, our gratitude and our perspective on what we are about to achieve or face in our lives.

Lyrics by Mrs. Frank A. Breck, arranged by William J. Kirkpatrick

“Jesus comes with power to gladden, when love shines in, every life that woe can sadden, when love shines in. Love will teach us how to pray, Love will drive the gloom away, turn our darkness into day, when love shines in.

How the world will grow with beauty, when love shines in, and the heart rejoice in duty, when love shines in. Trials may be sanctified, and the soul in peace abide, life will all be glorified, when love shines in.

Darkest sorrow will grow brighter when love shines in, and the heaviest burden lighter, when love shines in. Tis the glory that will throw light to show us where to go; O, the heart shall blessing know, when love shines in.

We my have unfading splendor, when love shines in, and a friendship true and tender, when love shines in. When earth victories shall be won, and our life in Heaven begun, there will be no need of sun, when love shines in.

When love shine in, when love shines in, How the heart is tuned to singing, when love shines in, when love shines in, Joy and peace to others bringing, when love shines in.

Though Your Sins Be As Scarle

 

Though Your Sins Be as Scalet

Romans 8:23 “We have all fallen short of the glory of God.” Everyone has sinned. Your sins may be as red as blood, but Christ can make them white as snow. He is the forgiveness giver; He can wipe away your sins. He is calling you with great compassion. He wants you to come to Him and confess your sins and repent. He will forgive and remember them no more.

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

“Tho your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Tho your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Tho they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool!” “Tho your sins be as scarlet, tho your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow, they shall be as white as snow.”

Hear the voice that entreats you. O return ye unto God! Hear the voice that entreats you, O return ye unto God! He is of great compassion, and of wondrous love! Hear the voice that entreats you. Hear the voice that entreats you. O return ye unto God! O return ye unto God!

He’ll forgive your transgressions and remember them no more; He’ll forgive your transgressions and remember them no more; “Look unto Me ye people,” Saith the Lord your God! He’ll forgive your transgressions, He’ll forgive your transgression, and remember them no more, and remember them no more.”
