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.

Hallelujah! What a Savior!

 

Hallelujah, What a Savior!

Jesus came to save us from our sins, He bore our sins on the cross, took our shame and guilt away. We were guilty and helpless, but He came with forgiveness and compassion. His death was accomplished so that we might live. Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Lyrics by Philip P. Bliss, arranged by Philip P. Bliss

“Man of sorrows, what a name for the Son of God who came, ruined sinners to reclaim! Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Bearing shame and scoffing rude. In my place condemned He stood; Sealed my pardon with His blood; Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Guilty, vile and helpless, we; Spotless lamb of God was He; Full atonement! Hallelujah! What a Savior!

Lifted up was He to die, “It is finished,” was the cry; Now in heaven exalted high; Hallelujah! What a Savior!

When He comes, our glorious King, all His ransomed, home to bring, then anew this song we’ll sing; Hallelujah! What a Savior!

The Lily of the Valley

 

The Lily of the Valley

You might have many friends, but you will never have a friend like Jesus. He’s the only one that can cleanse us and make us whole. He will comfort us in times of grief and take away all our sorrows. He gives us strength when we feel weak and He keeps us close by His power. He will never leave us or forsake us. If you don’t have a relationship with Jesus, you need to come to Him now.

Lyrics by Charles W. Fry, arranged by William S. Hays

“I have found a friend in Jesus, He’s everything to me, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul; The Lily of the Valley, in Him alone I see all I need to cleanse and make me fully whole. In sorrow He’s my comfort, in trouble He’s, my stay. He tells me every care on Him to roll.

He all my griefs has taken, and all my sorrows borne; In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tower; I have all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn from my heart, and now He keeps me by His power, Though all the world forsake me, and satan tempt me sore, Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.

He will never, never leave me, nor yet forsake me here, while I live by faith and do His blessed will; A wall of fire about me, I’ve nothing now to fear, with His manna He my hungry soul shall fill. Then sweeping up to glory to see His blessed face, where rivers of delight shall ever roll: He’s the Lily of the Valley, the bright and morning star, He’s the fairest of ten thousand to my soul.”

The Light of the World is Jesus

 

The Light of the World is Jesus

When a person walks into a pitch-dark room, there is no light. When the world is filled with sinners, there is no light. There is hope though, when we have Jesus,  He is the light that fills the darkness. Light always banishes darkness and Jesus takes away our sins. Turn on the light in a dark room and you get clarity. Turn on the light of Jesus in our life and we see purpose. We live within His plan for us. He will guide us through the darkness and into the light.

Lyrics by Philip P. Bliss, arranged by Philip P. Bliss

“The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin; The light of the world is Jesus; Like sunshine at noonday His glory shone in.

No darkness have we who in Jesus abide, the light of the world is Jesus; We walk in the light when we follow our guide.

Ye dwellers in darkness with sin-blinded eyes, the light of the world is Jesus; Go. Wash at His bidding, and light will arise;

No need of the sunlight in heaven, we’re told, the light of the world is Jesus; The lamb is the light in the City of Gold.

The light of the world is Jesus, come to the light, tis shining for thee; Sweetly the light has dawned upon me; Once I was blind, but now I can see; The light of the world is Jesus.”
