countmeworthy and UntoHim's Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Don't be surprised if you get goosebumps all over your spirit, soul and body!
 When I first got this CD, I played it in my car on my way to an appointment. When this song came on, something began to happen to my soul...to read what happens next, I'll post the You tube to ' Holy Spirit,You are Welcome in this place.' I pray these songs will bless you and bring healing to your minds, your souls and your bodies as they have done me...to GOD be the GLORY! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UovQ6NljfOU

HOLY SPIRIT............YOU ARE WELCOME IN THIS FORUM!!!
 SATURATE OUR SOULS WITH YOUR PRESENCE as YOU GUIDE our Way, directing our paths unto RIGHTEOUSNESS!! We LOVE YOU Holy SPIRIT!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uodgo8zLvZQ & now for the rest of the story..... While in the car..playing this CD "God He Reigns' by Hillsong..as I get to this song, The Glory of GOD, the Holy Spirit falls on me very, very strong, I had to pull over. I was close to a shopping center & that is where I pulled over.Honestly, I don't recall having the Presence of the LORD 'hit me' like that. I was 'drunk in the Spirit'..and about 1/2 hr later, it lifted. This was in 2006.

Singing in the Spirit
Dear Ones,
I have had very similar experiences to countmeworthy while listening to the very CDs you are referring to. In Raleigh we love to sing the new comterporary songs and the old traditional hymns and old LC supplement tunes. Often some get together just to sing and sing and sing. They let me join in as a joyful noise. I will find out how to post some of the songs of praise and thanksgiving that our local saints have written. I am sure they will be a supply. Hope, Don Rutledge |

Modern Hymns by Keith and Kristyn Getty
Hello, dear ones.
My dear wife and I have really been enjoying some of the "modern hymns" composed and sung by Keith and Kristyn Getty. Their music is always uplifting and the words are very Christ-exalting. Here are a few links for you to enjoy: 1) A quiet, meditative, version of their modern hymn "In Christ Alone": click here . 2) A more upbeat version of "In Christ Alone" from a public appearance at Shadow Mountain Community Church in El Cajon, CA: click here .

And when I could not reach mercy, mercy came running to me!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpodVp6LH8s
Once there was a holy place Evidence of God's embrace And I can almost see mercy's face Pressed against the veil Looking down with longing eyes Mercy must have realized That once His blood was sacrificed Freedom would prevail And as the sky grew dark And the earth began to shake With justice no longer in the way Chorus: Mercy came running Like a prisoner set free Past all my failures to the point of my need When the sin that I carried Was all I could see And when I could not reach mercy Mercy came running to me Once there was a broken heart Way to human from the start And all the years left it torn apart Hopeless and afraid Walls I never meant to build Left this prisoner unfulfilled Freedom called but even still It seemed so far away I was bound by the chains From the wages of my sin Just when I felt like giving in Sometimes I still feel so far So far from where I really should be He gently calls to my heart Just to remind me Phillips, Craig and Dean

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
I just recently bought (again) a pile of CDs from http://christianbook.com, mostly from the discount bin.. I was feeling the need for more Christian music for my long commute to work and back (1-1.5h each way). Anyways, right now, the songs that I am loving the most, and bring me to tears every time I hear them:
David Meece - We Are The Reason Steven Curtis Chapman - His Strength is Perfect Steven Curtis Chapman - My Redeemer is Faithful and True After being stuck with only LSM approved hymns for a while now, I have found it extremely liberating to hear good Christian music again. And as a bonus, my wife keeps swiping the CDs to listen to them, so she's getting a dose of non-LSM Christian music too

Another blessed and Anointed Christian musician is Fernando Ortega. I will attempt to insert youtubes here to watch and listen to him play his piano unto the Lord. God truly uses this man to bring us into the Presence of the King. His music is very moving and soothing. I like to go to sleep listening to his cds. Of course, it takes me a lot longer to fall asleep as I end up Praising and Worshipping the Lord before I finally fall asleep. Sing to Jesus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SODks36AdI8 Jesus King of Angels, Heaven's light: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dEijL...eature=related Children of the Living God, sing to the Living God: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AzRoAh5VBY&NR=1 If they don't show up you can google him and you can youtube him there. May the Lord bless Fernando Ortega and fill him with the Joy of the Lord and the Peace of God beyond all measure.

I was just getting a bit frustrated with the lack of spiritual feeding in my life due to being stuck in the LSM/LC for now (until my wife is ready to leave)... And the Lord is good... He brought to my mind yet another song: Steven Curtis Chapman - Wait on the Lord. Rather humbling, but there it is: "Wait, wait, wait on the Lord. You will understand in time why you must wait..." Oh, Lord give me more patience

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
My apologies for any who went looking for the song... It's actually called "Wait" and is track 7 on the "Real Life Conversations" CD.
And I shall now drown out my coworkers by playing said CD into headphones.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Excellent Terry! Those of you out there who do not know the Keith Green story should check it out here on youtube. There is a whole series. The man was wildly converted and served the Lord with a reckless abandon like none other. Many of the songs he wrote as a newly saved young man have become classics in the church. I bet many don't realize that this wild curly haired guy wrote this stuff...
"There is a redeemer": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CEwR9Zvnk9g "Oh Lord You're Beautiful": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQ3lvN4tQmY Here is Part 1 of the Keith Green Story: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6hOy...x=0&playnext=1 -

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Some excellent youtube videos recorded in Mansfield, OH, which show a precious brother performing heartfelt versions of Keith Green's songs:
1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpziLbKcq4g 2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVqc1lQstUc 3. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfOdQr_w0v4 Enjoy! This dear brother has quite a heart for the Lord. You can freely download his music from his web site at http://www.jasonlonjacobs.com/. He performs for various assemblies all over the country , and always performs for free! How wonderful is that!

The Alter and the Door:
Careless, I am reckless I'm a wrong-way-travelin'-slowly-unraveling shell of a man Burnt out, I'm so numb now That the fire's just an ember way down in the corner of my cold, cold heart (Pre-Chorus) Lord, this time I'll make it right, here at the altar I lay my life Your kingdom come but my will was done, my heart is broken as I... (Chorus) Cry, like so many times before But my eyes are dry before I leave the floor, oh Lord I try but this time, Jesus, how can I be sure I will not lose my follow through Between the altar and the door Here at the altar, oh my world so black and white How could I ever falter What You've shown me to be right (Pre-Chorus) (Chorus) I'm trying so hard to stop trying so hard Just let You be who You are Lord, who You are in me Jesus, I'm trying so hard to stop trying so hard Just let You be who You are Lord, who You are in me Oh Lord, I http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7HkcxkUOjI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbaGh...eature=related

....It's not a song, although I enjoy many on www.godtube.com - but if you haven't heard this, you should give it a listen: The Revelation of Jesus Christ throughout Scripture!

Each of these two brothers were co-workers in San Bernardino when I was a high school brother. I was distraught how their passing was received so differently. If we say we are the Body, however the measure of our love fluctuates whether or not we're meeting with the recovery? It's easy to say we love all members of the Body, but when our actions illustrate a contradiction.....what says ye? |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Some hymns and songs I like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9jqbJhT-LY – Be Thou My Vision https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLfBz0fjPr8 – Oh Glorious Christ Savior Mine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVa9ruwdI8k – Christ is All https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ENtL_li4GbE – In Christ Alone https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/824 - The church is Christ’s own body https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oYeRE0ehPg – Jesus thou joy of loving hearts Beware words that scroll in the second hymn (many have wrongly been filled with pride by them). Listen to the words of the song though Beware of the statement "she is like Christ is, "divine in every way". In the fourth. Not true. There are many divine attributes of Christ the church does not possess. Pride comes before a fall, and a haughty spirit before destruction! We are nothing without Christ, and with him we are servants. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
The songs from the saints in the LC are to me some of the most beautiful, encouraging and Christ-centered music I have enjoyed. I still have the Divine Romance CD and enjoy many of Howard's deep, heart-felt songs. I continue to enjoy the NYCYPCD and purchase any new one that comes out. They have helped me through many a difficult time. We used to sing and worship the Lord like this all the time in every meeting. We were always so in love with Him and could always sense His love for us. I wonder my brother do the saints still sing like this in the meetings of the church?

I've always enjoyed the words of "We Limit Not the Truth of God".
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eLCELo_pmYI This always inspires me to keep mining for the unsearchable riches of Christ in scripture for the sake of His members. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Sing. Let us sing, to the glory of the King!
https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/77 Lift that Name High - Margaret E. Barber https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyYWK_QDMXc Lift The Name – Highlands Worship The first is one of my all time favorite hymns. I found the second while searching the internet for it. Both are great songs, that agree on who our songs should glorify... Jesus They present an interesting contrast in presentation styles and highlight the Living Stream Ministry's and Witness Lee's aversion to "worldly music". I recall that was one of his main concerns about spiritual music. Given the Bible's clear warnings about not loving the world, and friendship with the world being enmity with God, I understand the concern. I did a Bible word search on the word "world" and find the main concerns about the world being: a) wisdom of men that exalt themselves and their thinking above God's b) material possessions becoming what we live for and rely on versus God c) lust of the flesh d) reliance on doing the law versus the Spirit by faith e) lust of the eyes f) pride of life Are any of these in either song? No |

Thanks for your suggestion JJ. I have been enjoying this one for a number of years. Didn't know these guys were Australian...they seem to lose their accent when singing

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
I like the Gaither youtube channel. There are a lot of older hymns, some of which are sung in the LC. Coming from a LC background, it's harder to relate to more modern Christian music (but I am gradually learning to do so). For those that don't know, these videos are mostly well-known gospel singers all coming together (setting aside their own egos) to sing songs together. Here is a medley that I like:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bQzaMBNnjk

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
I don't necessarily like the videos that come with some of these, but here are a few favorite songs for worship, both modern and older.
You’ll Come https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RmZFaruXhs How Deep the Father’s Love https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9FG12eTSbI This is a fairly recent hymn. Praise to the Lord, the Almighty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEh7Vt9sxmc This version is Fernando Ortega. I actually prefer the version on the album "Passion: Hymns Ancient and Modern" with various artists, though this one is hard to beat. Ortega does a lot of older hymns in exceptional ways. Many great for worship. And even the ones that aren't are still great songs, just not necessarily for worship. I have a hard time selecting the best, but Come Thou Fount, is neat the top.

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Two of my favorite songs from the local churches' "Hymns" book are:
Gathered in Thy name, Lord Jesus https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/nt/204 This was a good one to start meetings with. I note the music was changed a while back. I still know and enjoy the older music better. Thou Lord to God art Precious http://www.witness-lee-hymns.org/hymns/H0169.html www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/169 This was written by Witness Lee. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Quote:
But one thing about older hymns is that they tend to be more focused on content than on melody. I like melodies, and I like harmony. But without worthy texts, they might as well be instrumentals played as people pray or they "pass the plate." But the best ones often seem to be less catchy musically but more solid in theology and the emotion of worship (not just the emotions). I like songs that are thoughtful. Even contemplative. (I know that term has taken a beating in some circles recently.) Where I attend, the bulletin has in insert for the traditional service laying out all the songs, scripture that will be read, etc. I take that insert and often go home, get out my guitar, and try to simplify one of more of the hymns down to something I can play and is still pleasing for singing or reading. At some level, my notions for doing this are beyond my time, patience, and musical ability, but I keep thinking that "Great Is Thy Faithfulness" in the same service as "You'll Come," along with two or three times through a short chorus (words by David, tune by I can't remember who) of: . . . . D Have mercy on me, oh God . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . G According to your steadfast love . . Em . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A -A4 -A According to your great compassion Em . . . . . . . . . . . . . . A . . . . .-A4 -A Blot out my many transgressions . . . Em . . . . . . . . . . . A And wash away all my iniquities . . . . . . . . . . . D Cleanse me from sin (Sorry, but without the dots the chords collapse to the left margin) Did it in a choir 20 years ago (part of a medley with "My Faith Looks Up to Thee"), then later we occasionally used it as part of worship just before the preacher came to pray.

Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia! Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia! Once He died our souls to save, Alleluia! Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia! Love’s redeeming work is done, Alleluia! Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia! Death in vain forbids His rise, Alleluia! Christ hath opened paradise, Alleluia! Soar we now where Christ hath led, Alleluia! Foll’wing our exalted Head, Alleluia! Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia! Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia! Hail the Lord of earth and heaven, Alleluia! Praise to Thee by both be given, Alleluia! Thee we greet triumphant now, Alleluia! Hail the Resurrection, thou, Alleluia! King of glory, Soul of bliss, Alleluia! Everlasting life is this, Alleluia! Thee to know, Thy pow’r to prove, Alleluia! Thus to sing, and thus to love, Alleluia! |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
It was hard not to listen to one of the others nearby on the page. I started one and was greeted by a stringing of LCM catchphrases. By the end of about 4 lines there had been mention of God's economy (so glorious), consummated, God's eternal purpose . . . . I just couldn't help but kill it then and there. A smorgasbord of Leeology. Shot-gunning every high-sounding phrase they had in their arsenal. It would have made me laugh if it had not made me so ill.
And unlike the one JJ linked (which is at least mostly a regular hymn with no video), this one had pretty scenery scrolling words along with the choir (despite being called Karaoke). I know this thread is about music we like. But so much of the LCM music was, and is, about catching people who think that simple and focused is poor and theologically (or Leeologically) jam-packed is what worship and singing is all about. Impress everyone with the depth of your theology. Nothing trite like care for the dying, or Lord have mercy on me. Not even as low as the gospel of salvation. It must be nearly unable to contain the amount of stuff that can be crammed-in.

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Quote:
Since I posted the link to Christ is Victor, I've reflected on how Christ displayed His victory. Even that is somewhat mysterious, and not "showing off". He leaves his linen cloth and head wrap folded in the tomb. Two angels in bright clothing tell the disciples he has been raised like he told them, go to Galilee, he will meet you there. He is seen by Mary Magdelene, she thinks he is the Gardener, and He says "don't touch me, I go to the Father". He appears to two disciples on the road to Emmaus and talks to them about his crucifixion and the news of his resurrection, but they don't recognize him until he breaks bread with them. But, while he was expounding the scripture to them their hearts were burning within them. He pops into two gatherings of the disciples who are in an enclosed room. He shows them the nail marks in his hands and mark in his side. He gives doubting Thomas and all believers to follow a lesson in faith. He breathes into them and says, "receive the Holy Spirit". Over the course of 40 days he teaches the disciples about the kingdom of God. But they want to know if he is restoring the kingdom to Israel then. He gives the fisherman a "fishing by obedience lesson". He tells them to wait in Jerusalem, until the promise of the Father, the Holy Spirit comes upon them. Then he ascends into heaven to the Father's side, while an angel tells the disciples he will return the same way he left. Then he advocates for them at the Father's side while the Holy Spirit testifies concerning Him and convicts the world of sin and righteousness. Paul said Jesus stripped off the ordinances, making an open display of them. The Holy Spirit descends upon the gathered church and empowers the disciples to announce the resurrection of Christ and salvation in Jesus. Some think they are drunk. Many believe and others scoff. The rulers of the Jews and Rome tried to kill this movement, but the more they tried the more it spread. The more they killed the Christians, the more people were captured in His victory train. Christ the Victor. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Today's "Listen Up" is great! Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound, that saved wretches like us.
I love the focus on the last verse. Our chains fell off, our heart went free, We rose went forth and followed Thee

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Today's "Listen Up" is another great one.
 Thanks, Unto Him!We praise thee o God for the son of thy love - words by Willam P. Mackay, 1863 We praise Thee, O God! For the Son of Thy love, For Jesus Who died, And is now gone above. Refrain: Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Hallelujah! Amen. Hallelujah! Thine the glory. Revive us again. We praise Thee, O God! For Thy Spirit of light, Who hath shown us our Savior, And scattered our night. All glory and praise To the Lamb that was slain, Who hath borne all our sins, And hath cleansed every stain. All glory and praise To the God of all grace, Who hast brought us, and sought us, And guided our ways. Revive us again; Fill each heart with Thy love; May each soul be rekindled With fire from above. Contemporary version on Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9Rd_AZTxXY Willie Nelson (yes Willie Nelson) sings it as “Revive Us Again" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZnBW3GyJUg4 Sorry to dominate this thread y'all. My love for good hymns has built up for years, so I love this space as an outlet. I keep hoping others will share more. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Oh, Christ, He is the Fountain Anne R. Cousin (Words) Wm. R. Bradbury,(arr.)
I found the original words and arrangement at http://www.hymnary.org/hymn/WSSS1890/page/145 Oh, Christ, He is the Fountain, The deep sweet well of love; The streams of earth I’ve tasted, More deep I’ll drink a-bove; There to an ocean fullness His mercy doth ex-pand, And glo – ry, glo – ry dwelleth in Immanuel’s land, And glo – ry, glo – ry dwelleth in Immanuel’s land With mer-cy and with judgment, My web of time He wove, and all the dews of sor-row Were lus-tered with His love; I’ll bless the hand that guided, I’ll bless the heart that plann’d, When thron’d where glo-ry dwell-eth In Immanuel’s land, When thron’d where glo-ry dwell-eth In Immanuel’s land Oh! I am my Beloved’s, And my Be-lov-ed’s mine, He drew a trembling sin-ner, By cords of love di-vine; I stand up-on His meri – it, I know no oth – er stand, Not e’en where glo-ry dwell-eth In Immanuel’s land, Not e’en where glo-ry dwell-eth In Immanuel’s land The Local Church Hymn Book (#1154) version I am more familiar with is on Youtube at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZUY...UYfQA6gdI#t=12 Don't let your eyes stray OBW  I like the changes made to it, but like to see the original too. Original has a little "sweet bye and bye" flavor. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Many Christians, including me, continue to be inspired by the Christ-centered songs of A.B. Simpson.
One of my favorites is "Jesus Only is our Message", which he penned in 1890. The music and words can be heard and seen at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ay3ATBluP5E The words are: Jesus only is our message, Jesus all our theme shall be; We will lift up Jesus ever, Jesus only will we see. Refrain Jesus only, Jesus ever, Jesus all in all we sing, Savior, sanctifier, and healer, Glorious Lord and coming king. Jesus only is our Savior, All our guilt He bore away, All our righteousness He gives us, All our strength from day to day. Refrain Jesus is our sanctifier, Cleansing us from self and sin, And with all His Spirit’s fullness, Filling all our hearts within. Refrain Jesus only is our healer, All our sicknesses He bare, And His risen life and fullness, All His members still may share. Refrain Jesus only is our power, He the gift of Pentecost, Jesus, breathe Thy power upon us, Fill us with the Holy Ghost. Refrain And for Jesus we are waiting, Listening for the advent call; But ’twill still be Jesus only, Jesus ever, all in all. Refrain A nice contemporary song inspired by this is sung by Aaron Shust https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toxXXD7BRKg |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Yet another classic hymn penned by A.B. Simpson:
Himself Original Words are: Once it was the blessing, Now it is the Lord; Once it was the feeling, Now it is His Word; Once His gift I wanted, Now, the Giver own; Once I sought for healing, Now Himself alone. Refrain All in all forever, Jesus will I sing; Everything in Jesus, And Jesus everything. Once ’twas painful trying, Now ’tis perfect trust; Once a half salvation, Now the uttermost; Once ’twas ceaseless holding, Now He holds me fast; Once ’twas constant drifting, Now my anchor’s cast. Refrain Once ’twas busy planning, Now ’tis trustful prayer; Once ’twas anxious caring, Now He has the care; Once ’twas what I wanted, Now what Jesus says; Once ’twas constant asking, Now ’tis ceaseless praise. Refrain Once it was my working, His it hence shall be; Once I tried to use Him, Now He uses me; Once the pow’r I wanted, Now the Mighty One; Once for self I labored, Now for Him alone. Refrain Once I hoped in Jesus, Now I know He’s mine; Once my lamps were dying, Now they brightly shine; Once for death I waited, Now His coming hail; And my hopes are anchored Safe within the veil. Refrain Three versions on Youtube follow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXL_e7BBLvU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvTPC3JtiCI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkMQuhj5zDE Enjoying Jesus Christ Himself!

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Today's "Listen Up" is a classic.
Jesus Paid it All - Words by Elvina M. Hall, 1865 I hear the Savior say, “Thy strength indeed is small; Child of weakness, watch and pray, Find in Me thine all in all.” Refrain: Jesus paid it all, All to Him I owe; Sin had left a crimson stain, He washed it white as snow. For nothing good have I Whereby Thy grace to claim; I’ll wash my garments white In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb. And now complete in Him, My robe, His righteousness, Close sheltered ’neath His side, I am divinely blest. Lord, now indeed I find Thy pow’r, and Thine alone, Can change the *leper’s spots [*leopard’s] And melt the heart of stone. When from my dying bed My ransomed soul shall rise, “Jesus died my soul to save,” Shall rend the vaulted skies. And when before the throne I stand in Him complete, I’ll lay my trophies down, All down at Jesus’ feet. More details at http://library.timelesstruths.org/mu...s_Paid_It_All/ |

What are your favorite hymns to worship the Father?
Do you like How Great Thou Art? - Swedish folk melody, adapted by Stuart K. Hine in 1885 from a poem by Carl G. Boberg in 1885 I see versions by Chris Rice, Bill Gaither, Carrie Underwood, Alan Jackson, Elvis Presley, and many others on Youtube as well.

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
"How Great Thou Art" is among the best hymns. I have also recent come across a song by Sara Groves, "He's Always Been Faithful," that fits with it so nicely. I have even contemplated a choir rendition that splices in part of the old hymn.

I love that you bring some musical ability into the discussion. I'm adding quote from Lamentations 3:22-24 that inspired the poet who first penned Great is Thy Faithfulness. As it inspires me when I'm tempted to get discouraged (which is often): Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him.” Last edited by JJ; 05-03-2016 at 01:56 PM. Reason: Improve it |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Quote:
He's always been faithful . . . Great is thy faithfulness . . . He's always been faithful to me It's just a sketch in my mind. The ending is intended to juxtapose the softening and contemplative ending of the new song with the somewhat oratorical effect of the line from the original. Our contrition and awe set up against the majesty of God. If I really wanted to do something with it, I would probably work with a true musician who would have additional suggestions (or tell me it just doesn't work). And give it a sufficient score to set out the parts and a rough piano accompaniment.

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Quote:
I think you may see that while I do not like choosing song styles for the purpose of the style, the manner of doing a song is often a secondary, but important part of the song. If you like the song "Beautiful One" (a fairly upbeat song of the last decade or so), I do too. But several years ago, the music leader at the church I was attending eliminated the chorus, using the pre-chorus as the only chorus, and turned-down the tempo and intensity. Slightly altered the chords to include a couple of minors and you hardly realize it is the same song. And it is a positive change. This link has several videos. One of them has become damaged (Praise to the Lord, the Almighty) and is only about half there. There are also a couple that were from a separate Thursday night modern worship venue that was hosted by the church but organized by others (although some of the "locals" were involved). Those are the "Mezzanine Floor" videos. The list includes the Beautiful One and Revelation Song/Holy, Holy, Holy. There is also an original, "Kyrie (Lord Have Mercy)" that I have come to really appreciate. I never heard it live but only on the video. Ignoring the more raucous Mezzanine Floor videos, you get a little glimpse of some recent history of worship that has influenced my thinking. And I am not saying I don't like the Mezzanine Floor stuff. Just not sure that it is always right for corporate worship — at least in the sense of the primary gatherings.

Regarding the doxology, I always thought it was weird to sing the words "Holy Ghost".. Sounds scary. I understand that's the translation they had in the 1600's. Perhaps this could use some musicianship to update it to something we can relate to better. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Quote:
As for the older wording, such as ghost v spirit, I often agree. But once you start, where do you stop? Get rid of every "thee," "thou," "art," etc. at the cost of the rhyming? Again, I think that sometimes it works well. And sometimes it doesn't. And sometimes you cause people to be lost in paying attention to which word to use rather than the meaning of the song. I know that is the reason that some of the modern versions have completely different tunes. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Yet younger ones often like the newer versions simply because they are newer. As if that is the reason something is good. Same goes for liking the old hymns just because that is the way Paul and Silas did it. (Like when people jokingly say that KJV was good enough for Paul and Silas . . . .).

Do you like "What love thou hast bestowed on us?" by Witness Lee? Words at http://www.witness-lee-hymns.org/hymns/H0030.html Singing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GwEh71uxQ7w This used to be one of my favorites to sing at the end of Lords' Table meetings. I've always liked that it continues beyond redemption through other areas of Christian growth (and still do). As I read the lyrics now, I see seeds of things that grew into big problems. Do you see them too? If yes, what are they, and how could the words be improved? |

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oozt6N32UnM O Breath Of Life Jerry Williams and Harvest Original Lyrics by Bessie P. Head 1850-1936 O breath of life, come sweeping through us, Revive Thy church with life and power; O Breath of life, come, cleanse, renew us, And fit Thy church to meet this hour. Revive us, Lord! Is zeal abating While harvest fields are vast and white? Revive, us Lord, the world is waiting, Equip Thy church to spread the light. O breath of love, come breathe within us, Renewing thought and will and heart; Come, Love of Christ, afresh to win us, Revive Thy church in every part. |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
"Far above all" is our Saviour enthroned;
Crowned is the Lamb who for sinners atoned; Living forever to list to our call, God hath exalted Him "far above all." Refrain: "Far above all!" "far above all!" Jesus the Crucified, "far above all!" Low at His footstool adoring we fall, God hath exalted Him "far above all." When the fierce tempest, uplifting its waves, Seeks to engulf us, we cry and He saves; Looking to Jesus, upheld by His hand, Tread we the billows as safe as on land. High are the cities that dare our assault, Strong are the barriers that call us to halt; March we on fearless, and down they must fall, Vanquished by faith in Him "far above all." His is the kingdom from pole unto pole; "Far above all" while the ages shall roll; With Him the victors, who followed His call, Share in His royalty "far above all." Horace E. Govan, 1866-1932 Musician: Charles H. Gabriel, 1856-1932 |

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
OK, so here are words of another classic hymn by Frederick Lehman. You Tube has many different videos by various singers and genres:
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. Refrain: Oh, love of God, how rich and pure! How measureless and strong! It shall forevermore endure— The saints’ and angels’ song. 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 grace 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 a scribe by trade; To write the love of God above Would drain the ocean dry; Nor could the scroll contain the whole, Though stretched from sky to sky. Frederick Lehman tells us that verse 3 “had been found penciled on the wall of a patient’s room in an insane asylum after he had been carried to his grave.” While it is only supposition that he was the one who adapted the Jewish author’s poem to leave us these well-known lines, if the account is true it shows in any case that he highly esteemed the message. |

OBW posted this song as one of his favorites in this thread a while back ( sung by another artist). This is also one of my favorite Christian songs too. Thanks, Unto Him, for pointing this one out. I'm saving the words, here, which are very moving: How deep the Father’s love for us, How vast beyond all measure, That He should give His only Son To make a wretch His treasure. How great the pain of searing loss - The Father turns His face away, As wounds which mar the Chosen One Bring many sons to glory. Behold the man upon a cross, My sin upon His shoulders; Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice Call out among the scoffers. It was my sin that held Him there Until it was accomplished; His dying breath has brought me life - I know that it is finished. I will not boast in anything, No gifts, no power, no wisdom; But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection. Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer; But this I know with all my heart - His wounds have paid my ransom.

Re: Favorite hymns of mine
Thanks JJ. Where I meet at Seattle Christian Assembly they love these traditional hymns, with such deep, meaningful sentiment for the Lord. Some of the hymns I never had heard before, but they are all good,
Friday night before breaking into Bible study groups; Sunday morning; and Tues night before breaking into prayer groups. Your other hymn, post #60, my son knew I liked, and had it printed on wood w/turquoise background. I have it on my dresser. "The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen could ever tell...". |

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
I was reading back through this thread and noted that at one point I started talking about "How Great Thou Are" when I obviously meant "Great is thy Faithfulness.
But I was also thinking about the other thing that is becoming larger in my thoughts lately . . . . There are a lot of good Christian songs of all kinds. But not all are worship songs in the sense of corporate worship. Yet there is a tendency in some circles to not differentiate. When it comes to worship time, it is mostly about Him. Less about me. Even less about the church. Not saying I disappear entirely. But much less. That Sara Groves song that I mentioned in those earlier emails is not really corporate worship music. As special music (choir or solo, maybe), but not general congregational singing. But I still like it. Oddly, I place "10,000 Reasons" somewhere near the break between regular worship and all other good Christian songs. The "story" seems to revolve around "me" but only in that it describes God as being the center of everything. So "bless the Lord, Oh my soul" is really solid. Of course, to include the gospel, there is an aspect in which "I" the sinner will always be a part. But I have less "good feeling" toward the pining for glory songs. And "I'll Fly Away" types. To much about me and my woes. I've got them. But that does not mean that songs of the life to come or mourning over loss are verboten. But they have specific places (in my worship-ology). And I fail to mention that songs that are truly prayers are generally good (if they are generally good, if you get my drift). Doesn't matter how "me" or "we" those get. How much we need a good "Lord have mercy on me" — in song or in prayer (or both combined). . . . . . Squirrel!! If I am not repeating myself (and if I am not repeating myself (and . . .)) there is a pretty good song recently by Mercy Me. Overall a great song. But there is one thing that really bugs me. The chorus effectively says "greater is the one living inside of me than he who is living in the world." Absolutely great. But then they stop and sing "In the woooorrrrld" all drawn out two or three times before repeating the whole phrase again. And it is so upbeat. Why does "in the world" get emphasized so strongly in a "makes you wanna dance" kind of upbeat way? I think they messed up (IMHO). . . . . . OK. Back to my ramblings. While style is partly a matter of taste and partly a matter of what fits the lyrics, I have tended toward more a more contemplative feel lately. There are surely times to be bombastic. But even those can sometimes be turned down. And slowed down. Give us some more time and less distraction as we consider what we are singing. (I notice that no one is asking me to be worship leader anywhere.)

Re: I Gave My Life for Thee
We sang this last night, a hymn focused on the Lord Himself, with the first 4 vv "by Him" to us What a touching hymn, from 1858. Verses 5-6 are "to Him", which came later in 1871. More history of the hymn at http://cyberhymnal.org/htm/i/g/igavemyl.htm
I Gave My Life for Thee https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TjUsi7X28U I gave My life for thee, My precious blood I shed, That thou might ransomed be, and raised up from the dead I gave, I gave My life for thee, what hast thou given for Me? I gave, I gave My life for thee, what hast thou given for Me? My Father’s house of light, My glory circled throne I left for earthly night, for wanderings sad and lone; I left, I left it all for thee, hast thou left aught for Me? I left, I left it all for thee, hast thou left aught for Me? I suffered much for thee, more than thy tongue can tell, Of bitterest agony, to rescue thee from hell. I’ve borne, I’ve borne it all for thee, what hast thou borne for Me? I’ve borne, I’ve borne it all for thee, what hast thou borne for Me? And I have brought to thee, down from My home above, Salvation full and free, My pardon and My love; I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, what hast thou brought to Me? I bring, I bring rich gifts to thee, what hast thou brought to Me? And Thou hast brought to me, down from Thy home above, Salvation full and free, Thy pardon and Thy love. Great gifts Thou broughtest me; what have I brought to Thee? Great gifts Thou broughtest me; what have I brought to Thee? O let my life be given, my years for Thee be spent, World fetters all be riven, and joy with suffering blent! Thou gavest Thyself for me; I give myself to Thee. Thou gavest Thyself for me; I give myself to Thee. |

Peter walked on water when he was looking at Jesus, but began to sink the second he looked at himself. That's a good lesson for us. The songs I post here are those that focus on Him and are based on scripture, the two main factors I look for. Regarding the music, I have little musical training, so I can't comment on that. Sorry.

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
I like to sing "Hosanna", remembering the Lord Jesus' entry into Jerusalem, looking forward to his coming again.
Here is Hillsong United's "Hosanna" song on You Tube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoM0AT8fBvs Thayer's lexicon says the word Hosanna is from Psalm 118:25 and means 'save, I pray', is shortened in the Greek form to 'save us', and also means 'be propitious'. Here is Matthew's account of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem (Mat 21:1-16, NASB): When they had approached Jerusalem and had come to Bethphage, at the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, saying to them, “Go into the village opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied there and a colt with her; untie them and bring them to Me. “If anyone says anything to you, you shall say, ‘The Lord has need of them,’ and immediately he will send them.” This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet: “SAY TO THE DAUGHTER OF ZION, ‘BEHOLD YOUR KING IS COMING TO YOU, GENTLE, AND MOUNTED ON A DONKEY, EVEN ON A COLT, THE FOAL OF A BEAST OF BURDEN.’” The disciples went and did just as Jesus had instructed them, and brought the donkey and the colt, and laid their coats on them; and He sat on the coats. Most of the crowd spread their coats in the road, and others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them in the road. The crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David; BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; Hosanna in the highest!” When He had entered Jerusalem, all the city was stirred, saying, “Who is this?” And the crowds were saying, “This is the prophet Jesus, from Nazareth in Galilee.” And Jesus entered the temple and drove out all those who were buying and selling in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who were selling doves. And He said to them, “It is written, ‘MY HOUSE SHALL BE CALLED A HOUSE OF PRAYER’; but you are making it a ROBBERS’ DEN.” And the blind and the lame came to Him in the temple, and He healed them. But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the wonderful things that He had done, and the children who were shouting in the temple, “Hosanna to the Son of David,” they became indignant and said to Him, “Do You hear what these children are saying?” And Jesus said to them, “Yes; have you never read, ‘OUT OF THE MOUTH OF INFANTS AND NURSING BABIES YOU HAVE PREPARED PRAISE FOR YOURSELF’?” Mark 1:11 and John 12:9-16 also give accounts of the same event. The praise of the Lord in these accounts is a quote from Psalm 118:25. I like to read that verse in context as follows (verses 19-26 of Psalm 118), and know it refers to Christ's coming: "Open to me the gates of righteousness; I shall enter through them, I shall give thanks to the LORD. This is the gate of the LORD; The righteous will enter through it. I shall give thanks to You, for You have answered me, And You have become my salvation. The stone which the builders rejected Has become the chief corner stone. This is the LORD’S doing; It is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day which the LORD has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it. O LORD, do save, we beseech You; O LORD, we beseech You, do send prosperity! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the LORD; We have blessed you from the house of the LORD." Here’s a pretty good web site about Jesus’ second coming with scripture references: http://activechristianity.org/the-en...ing-of-christ/ Hosanna! Do save Lord Jesus! Thank you that babes praised you at your first coming. And, thank you that we can praise you now, and at your second coming.

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
Here's an old hymn we sang many times in local church meetings I still like:
JESUS, our Lord, with what joy we adore Thee by H. D'Arcy Champney (1854-1942) sung to Epiphany Hymn by J. F. Thrupp (1827-1867) 1 JESUS, our Lord, with what joy we adore Thee; Chanting our praise to Thyself on the throne, Blest in Thy presence we worship before Thee, Own Thou art worthy, and worthy alone. 2 How hast Thou triumphed, and triumphed with glory, Battled death's forces, rolled back every wave! Can we refrain then from telling the story, How Thou art victor o'er death and the grave? 3 "Lord, what is man?" we would break forth exclaiming; Jesus, the crowned One, the Lamb that was slain! Joyful we own Thee, Thy praises proclaiming; Death Thou hast vanquished by rising again! 4 "Lord, what is man?" Yes, with deep adoration, Gladly prolong we this wonderful theme; Jesus, divine One, Thou Head of creation, Head of Thy church, which Thou cam'st to redeem! A faceless brother plays the tune on guitar here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=C4NPAEX2aHQ I wish there was a better recording, sung with joy from the heart to the worthy One we adore!

I see many others have covered this song beautifully on You Tube in ways that seem more reverent. I can't speak to the music though. I like them all

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
I found something very interesting about Hymn 505 in the LSM Hymnal, which I always liked to sing:
"There's a Man in the Glory", Lyrics by Mary E. McDonough (1863 - 1962) LSM has the words here: Words: https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/505 I even found a copywrite notice under this hymn on another site LSM has the words to the hymnal at. The song is sung nicely here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_R07hyUzdM Now here's where is gets weird (to me, as a former member of TLC beginning in 1978). I learned by internet search that Mary E. McDonough wrote a book called "God's Plan of Redemption" that is filled with teachings concerning the tripartite man (uses the three circle diagram) and God's work to transform Christians into His image and glorious bride that are amazingly similar to Witness Lee's teachings I learned in the late 1970's - 1980's. The last page of an internet link to that book includes this hymn at: http://marymcdonough.ccws.org/appropriated/index.html Here is a web site that talks about the tripartite man and Mary E. McDonough's (and others') teaching concerning it. Now maybe some former members of TLC from the early 1960's can enlighten me about the relationship between Mary E. McDonough, Watchman Nee, and Witness Lee. Because there is a lot of copying of content going on here, and I'm not sure how this all came about. Nor do I know why Mary's hymn is now copywrited by LSM.  To be fair. I do remember Witness Lee mentioning the other authors mentioned on the site, saying his teachings were built on what they had seen (he often said he "stood on their shoulders" and saw further). I don't remember anything about this Mary E. McDonough though. Now why is this important? Because I had no idea how similar Witness Lee's teachings were to hers, and of course I gave Watchman Nee and Witness Lee the credit for them (because I didn't know). And, I'll bet many others did the same.

Thanks, manna-man for sharing Michael Card songs with us.
These are really good. And, I'm enjoying many others he penned and sings that I find on You Tube when I put his name in the You Tube search bar.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Chris Tomlin and Matt Redman have been writing and recording great worship songs for many years. Of course being in TLR, I missed hearing them, and initially looked down on them when I first heard them after I left.
Below are links to four I like the more I hear them. Tell me what you think.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Today's "Listen Up" The Lamb of God by Twila Paris is worthy of saving here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmVrP-G3rAw I'm not crazy about some of the pictures in this and many of the videos I post. But, like the words and singing. Thank's UntoHim. I hope it is OK that I resurrected this old thread. It has content I hadn't seen, as I joined after it went dormant. JJ

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
I'm with ya JJ. Some of the video visuals are not exactly tasteful. Sometimes I simply go to another window on the browser and then I only have the audio in the background.
Here is a live version of Lamb of God by Twila Paris. The audio quality is not very good, but again, it is a non professional live recording. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2tUmYWCsVY -

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
"Come Thou Long Expected Jesus" by Charles Wesley. Still fresh and inspiring today
I think this was a recent "Listen Up" Here's one rendition on You Tube https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=vRAFQCOkjgE Please share if you have a different one you prefer JJ

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEsgA_TgDas
Love Lifted Me · 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. Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help, Love lifted me! · 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, too, to Him belongs. · Souls in danger, look above, Jesus 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. I remember singing this song as a young man years ago. I do not know/remember if I ever sang it in a LC meeting in the 40 years of attending. I heard it the other day and it spoke to me of a simple touch with the Lord, something I need more than not. Eventually I changed "Love lifted me" to "Christ lifted me" and it became as rich. Love and Christ lifted me. I enjoyed this song, one from a timeless simpler time. |

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xqoo...ooC4ZG75Y#t=22
Hark the Herald Angels Sing Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled Joyful, all ye nations, rise, Join the triumph of the skies; With th' angelic host proclaim, "Christ is born in Bethlehem." Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Christ, by highest heav'n adored: Christ, the everlasting Lord; Late in time behold him come, Offspring of the favored one. Veil'd in flesh, the Godhead see; Hail, th'incarnate Deity: Pleased, as man, with men to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel! Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Hail! the heav'n born Prince of peace! Hail! the Son of Righteousness! Light and life to all he brings, Risen with healing in his wings Mild he lays his glory by, Born that man no more may die: Born to raise the sons of earth, Born to give them second birth. Hark! the herald angels sing, "Glory to the newborn King!" Another song I liked from my youth. I do not believe I have sang this song in a church meeting for at least 30 years. I recall Ed Marks calling this hymn in a winter training meeting back in the 1980's (I think). When Brother Lee took the podium he asked him why he called a "Christmas song" to sing (in December) and had a few more words to add to it. I don't recall if Ed had an answer or not, but WL sent a clear message throughout the recovery to don’t do that, humiliating EM in the process. Nevertheless, this is still one of my favorite hymns. It was written in 1739 by Charles Wesley. The link I chose from youtube is one of many. I just picked that one. |

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
I don't celebrate Christmas. But I take the opportunity to explain that God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.
This time of the year my favorite hymn: Once in Royal David's City https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vBS0NvWev18 |

Re: Favorite Hymns Of Mine
Quote:
I found an explanation of who Mary E. Mc Donough was on hymnal.net 2014 Steve Miller Detroit, MI, United States states: "Mrs. McDonough was born in New Hampshire and eventually settled in the Boston area. She became acquainted with A. B. Simpson through his annual conventions held at Old Orchard Beach, Maine. Mrs. McDonough wrote "God's Plan of Redemption" as a Bible study course to present the truths of the gospel in a logical, convincing manner to the young people at that time. She felt that the teaching of evolution in schools and the higher criticism that many preachers were falling into were pernicious teachings which drew many away from the faith. She addressed the problem with a logical presentation of the Bible truths from a biological viewpoint. The book first appeared in the United States and was later published in Britain in 1922 by Mrs. Penn-Lewis. Mrs. McDonough was a very private person and conducted her ministry from her apartment and a local bookstore. This hymn appears as a poem at the end of her book, making no mention of the author. - Songs of the Spirit by Martin" I note that T.A. Sparks quoted "There's a Man in The Glory" Hymn Word for word in a message he gave, without naming the author. http://www.austin-sparks.net/english/books/002916.html Witness Lee also mentioned this Hymn as one he liked a number of times. He was reported to also be a fan of the diagrams in "God's Plan of Redemption" written by Mary E. Mc Donough, and first published in the early 1920's.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
I've been enjoying the songs in this thread as well as "Listen Up" selections.
A short song from TLC''s old "Supplement" is welling up in me this morning: Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, **The only wise God, the only wise God, Be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. Amen. **Be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/134...loop=2&delay=0 Based on this verse http://bibleapps.com/1_timothy/1-17.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
I see "The Servant King" is up on the side banner. This is one of the more significant modern hymns that I have come to know in recent years. Covers the gospel and the charge to serve one another in one short poem/song. It should be sung often, and especially at every Easter service, preferably at the closing to send us out to serve.

Oh Christ be the Center of Our Lives - Charlie Hall
https://youtu.be/fNKsVDOC758T I can't take any credit for referring these songs, Unto Him. I've just been posting songs I've heard in church lately. Great Christ-centered music, so I like to share here.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Where do you think I get most of the songs/hymns I post?
Mostly from some great Christian radio and some from Sun morning worship service. There is great Christian radio station in my metro area. They are very eclectic in their selections - all the way from "Old Time Gospel Hour" selections (usually not my cup of tea) all the way to some pretty "rockish" stuff (usually not my cup of tea either) - but it's the 90% of selections in between that are so glorious and uplifting. The one you've referred today is by Charlie Hall. I discovered Charlie's music on this station and have posted a number of his songs/hymns on the forum. This station also plays a number of good daily/weekly things from various Christians teachers such a Ravi Zacharias. This station is online off course. Anyone is welcome to send me a PM and I'll let you know their website which plays 24/7. -

Re: Because He Lives I can face Tomorrow
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourcei...use+he+lives&*
God sent His son, they called Him, Jesus; He came to love, heal and forgive; He lived and died to buy my pardon, An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives! Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone, Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives! How sweet to hold a newborn baby, And feel the pride and joy he brings; But greater still the calm assurance: This child can face uncertain days because He Lives! Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives! And then one day, I'll cross the river, I'll fight life's final war with pain; And then, as death gives way to victory, I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives! Chorus Because He lives, I can face tomorrow, Because He lives, all fear is gone; Because I know He holds the future, And life is worth the living, Just because He lives! |

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Great, inspiring song, Indiana. My church sings "Because He Lives" to a different tune. I didn't know Bill Gaither sang this with this tune. It is beautifully done.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
A song my community church in another locality sang a lot came to me after some more time considering Christ as the light of life, and he as our life shining through us to enlighten dark and dying world crying for a savior.
Here I am to Worship - Michael W Smith https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6aEhXBEUnZU with Lyrics Jesus is the light of life John 8:12 NASB Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, “I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.” In Matthew 5, Jesus says his followers would be the light of the world as a city set on a hill. At other times he challenged his followers to not be those who hid their lamps under baskets and to keep their eyes pure as the lamps of their bodies.

Be thou my vision. A true treasure for saints to sing. Fitting song for St. Patties day, what with Irish roots an' all!

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Today's Listen Up "Child Come Home" by Dennis Jernigan is a sweet reminder of where we can always return. Our real home during our sojourn in a land that isn't our home is the Father's house.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
"Shout to the Lord' written by Chris Tomlin in 1998 has been a staple of many Christian churches' worship times for many years. I'm pretty sure it has been the Listen Up here before. My memory is fuzzy about that.
This morning I enjoyed playing it on my ipad during breakfast and shouting to the Lord with my wife. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I71XhjqoHvs Enjoy again JJ

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Ironic that churches sing a song about shouting to the Lord and many churches sing that - they sing about shouting but they don't actually do it. They sing about many things they don't actually do.
But if you actually shout to the Lord in those churches like we do in the Lord's Recovery you would be likely kicked out. |

I had the same critical thought you just expressed when I was in TLC. But, God broadened my narrow heart to see my brothers and sisters singing with all of their heart to the Lord. So, I shout to the Lord with them as we sing, and enjoy His wonderful presence. Have a great week JJ

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Nice to learn the last song posted here was by John Newton, and see YouTube has some alternative versions of it.
Now maybe someone can help find a better recording of: O, Christ in thee my soul hath found - Francis Bevan Lyrics - http://www.hymnary.org/text/o_christ...oul_hath_found Video - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=K7fmr95kzSE

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Ponder anew what the almighty can do when first with His love he befriend thee...
Let the amen sound from His people again! Lines from Joakim Neander's hymn "Praise to the Lord the Almighty the King of Creation" ... an inspiration to me this morning.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
He Hideth my Soul words by Fanny Crosby in 1890, music by William J. Kirkpatrick
video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Rx0Whauttqk Words: A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, A wonderful Savior to me; He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock, Where rivers of pleasure I see. Refrain He hideth my soul in the cleft of the rock That shadows a dry, thirsty land; He hideth my life with the depths of His love, And covers me there with His hand, And covers me there with His hand. A wonderful Savior is Jesus my Lord, He taketh my burden away; He holdeth me up, and I shall not be moved, He giveth me strength as my day. Refrain With numberless blessings each moment He crowns, And filled with His fullness divine, I sing in my rapture, oh, glory to God For such a Redeemer as mine! Refrain When clothed in His brightness, transported I rise To meet Him in clouds of the sky, His perfect salvation, His wonderful love I’ll shout with the millions on high. Refrain Scriptures: Exodus 17:6 http://biblehub.com/exodus/17-6.htm 1 Cor 10:4 http://biblehub.com/exodus/17-6.htm Exodus 33:22 - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage...3&version=NASB Song of Solomon 2:14 - https://www.biblegateway.com/passage...4&version=NASB

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
This song isn't a praise or worship song, but a song of encouragement and exhortation.
Live Like You're Loved - by Hawk Nelson https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IfHyAMjLLdA I've been hearing it a lot on Christian radio. It makes me stop and appreciate what I have in Christ (God's wonderful love). Drop living in fear or condemnation, and live in the freedom that comes in Christ my savoir. Please share what you think about it, and what you get out of it. JJ

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
JJ, sory for late reply.
Thanks for posting this wonderful song: Live like you're loved My thoughts can be summed up nicely in these lyrics: "So go ahead and be who he made you to be" It really brings out the truth that God wants to be so much more than just "building material" for the visible church, or any institute of man. He cares about us as individuals. Thanks again for you're valuable contribution to our little forum, especially for your song/hymn references. Christian music has been a great help and joy in my "recovery from the Recovery", which is still an ongoing process after 20+ years. I also enjoy Christian radio immensely. Sure, there is a lot of junk out there, but if you find the right station it can be a source of great joy and edification. -

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts Unto Him. Part of laying a 'straight stick' of truth for comparison is to share the joy of Jesus and his incredible salvation in songs of praise. I'm glad to contribute, and hope to encourage the saints of God here, .... and build the digital song book for future reference.
Yesterday's Listen Up would be good to preserve here. I enjoyed it a lot.

Holy is the Lord God Almighty - Chris Tomlin

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
Today's Listen Up has Fernando Ortega singing part of Rock of Ages, Cleft for Me
ihttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UHx005n1- Wonderful Song! Here is more detail Text: Augustus M. Toplady, 1740-1778 Music: Thomas Hastings, 1784-1872 Words 1. Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee; let the water and the blood, from thy wounded side which flowed, be of sin the double cure; save from wrath and make me pure. 2. Not the labors of my hands can fulfill thy law's commands; could my zeal no respite know, could my tears forever flow, all for sin could not atone; thou must save, and thou alone. 3. Nothing in my hand I bring, simply to the cross I cling; naked, come to thee for dress; helpless, look to thee for grace; foul, I to the fountain fly; wash me, Savior, or I die. 4. While I draw this fleeting breath, when mine eyes shall close in death, when I soar to worlds unknown, see thee on thy judgment throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, let me hide myself in thee.

Unto,
"I know who goes before me . . . ." Great song. Just needs a key other than the one Chris sings it in.

Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!
It seems to me that many of Tomlin's songs are in a key that only he can use. Of course I'm just about tone deaf, so no biggie to me
