Default 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!

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.

Default 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

Very COOL cityonahill! THANKS for posting!

I love Hillsong...and the words to this song by Desperation band were a very good gospel message!

Thumbs up 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 .

Default 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

Default 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

Excellent choices ABrotherInChrist!

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'll have to take a look at these at home sometime. At work they've blocked youtube (bah!) I know, I should be working at work, but it IS lunch time, so whatever.

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

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.

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

I must agree on this song. And the passion of singing about God's compassion somehow screams for the sound and feel of an 80s rock ballad to display that passion.

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

Most peculiar. I linked from that previous attempt and listened to the song. (And a good one it is.)

I sort of had a sense of deja vu when I saw your more recent post and none prior to it after January. Began to question my sanity.

Listening to the song made me think specifically of two brothers Ransford Ackah and Francis Ball who had passed away within the last 5 years. Each had maintained their vision. One had parted ways with Living Stream while one continued as a locality elder and FTTA trainer.
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?

Default 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.

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?

Between 2005 and 2015 in California the hymnal (changed little since mid- 1980's) was used at the Sunday meeting. The saints tend to repeat the lines from it as if they were scripture now. A song book with selections from the hymnal and songs composed by local church saints was used in home and campus meetings. Both have many good songs for worshipping the Lord, but contain elements of worshipping "the Church Life" or the church too. The joy of the Lord and outpouring of the Spirit during singing (and everything else) seemed greatly diminished versus late 70's and early 80's to me.

Can you tell me your favorite hymns and spiritual songs (regardless of where they came from)?

I've always enjoyed the words of "We Limit Not the Truth of God".

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

You're welcome. Yes, truth and the gospel. Challenging and inspiring at the same time. I love when songs are inspired by a section of scripture, and use the words of the scripture in the songs.

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:

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.

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

You mentioned you like a lot of older hymns elsewhere, OBW (I think).


I happened upon hymntime.com, and found it to be loaded with "oldies but goodies". It just goes on and on!

I do like them. But they are so hard to remember because even the "traditional" services tend toward collections that they rotate through.

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.

Words of Christ the Lord is ris'n today - Charles Westley, 1799

Christ the Lord is ris’n today, Alleluia!
Sons of men and angels say, Alleluia!
Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
Sing, ye heav’ns, and earth, reply, Alleluia!
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!

Be Thou My Vision is today's "Listen Up" on this site. Check it out. Nice!

This song is one of my favorites, and has an interesting history.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Be_Thou_My_Vision

Here is another nice rendering of it on YouTube:

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.

Sorry the other LCM music was a distraction OBW.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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: What are your favorite hymns to worship the Father?

Do you like Great is Thy Faithfullness?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0k1WhFtVp0o

Refrain:
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!

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 will be.

Refrain

Summer and winter and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love.

Refrain

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

Refrain

"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.

Thanks for sharing OBW. I found the song you mentioned on You Tube, and it's wonderful! Strains from Great is Thy Faithfullness begin it, and are imbedded at one point. Are you suggesting a choir blend of that or How Great Thou Art?

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.”

I don't have reference to the Sara Groves song at the moment, but I recall both the intro's "hints" and the interlude a little. I think the Groves song has three verses. In any case, my initial thought was to insert the first verse of "Great is Thy Faithfulness" before the last verse of Grove's song, but right after "thy compassions, they fail not" end the verse with "He's always been faithful to me," then go on to the last verse and repeat the last line as follows:

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.

I do like the doxology. I also like "Holy, Holy, Holy." While not entirely on the Father, I have enjoyed a setting in which the modern worship hymn "Revelation Song" (Worthy is the Lamb who was slain. Holy, Holy is He . . . .) moving straight into "Holy, Holy, Holy" loosing the band (piano only) for the first verse, then the rest (one or more verses, as desired) a cappella.

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.

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.
OK, I see with your explanation and link what you are talking about. Too bad the video quality is poor. In spite of that, I enjoyed Revelation Song/Holy, Holy, Holy and the slow version of Beautiful One. Thanks for sharing!

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.

The videos were not really important. If you notice, the band is not making a show. The recording is simply being made from a camera and a microphone in the sound booth area (not directly off the sound board) and there is clearly something in the lighting that is not picked-up right by the camera.

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 . . . .).

I enjoyed today's "Listen UP" "Our God Reigns! by LouAnn Lee et. al.

Music, words, and video capture the joy and awe in Jesus experienced by saints around the world.... until He comes! I'm preserving the link here for when another "Listen Up" takes its place.

"Come to the Father through Jesus the Son." Sounds like pretty clear and orthodox doctrine to me. Would "come to the processed and consummated God through the last Adam who became a life-giving seven-fold intensified Spirit" have the same impact? The LSM phraseology kind of muddy's the water for me, which may be satan's intent.

Yes, gotta love Ol Fanny's simple biblical words. I'm not quite sure what to say about the alternative. Funny, and kinda sad

[QUOTE=JJ;48410]Re: What are your favorite hymns to worship the Father?

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?

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.

"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."

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.

Today's "Listen Up" is How Deep the Father's Love for Us - written by Stuart Townend, sung by Fernando Ortego https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dLDGVl8D5UU

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.

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...".

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.)

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.

I'm glad you get to sing and hear these traditional hymns, Indiana. Many of them are not played very often in churches that have "contemporary worship". I fear that's a loss for the next generation.

The Love of God is certainly a classic. Here are links to two versions on You Tube.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjj2kZ1qoqw – Mercy Me, Contemporary
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEi463LcxxA – Heber Vega, Traditional

I agree that the best worship songs are those that focus on Him versus us.

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.

OBW mentioned Revelation Song in one of his posts on this thread a while back.

This has become a very popular contemporary worship song. I like to sing it too.

I'm posting a link to You Tube versions sung by Phillips, Craig, Dean

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofNBuMdrbcg

The words are:

Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on heaven's mercy seat
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain, holy, holy is He
Sing a new song to Him who sits on heaven's mercy seat

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of Kings
You are my everything and I will adore You, I will adore You

Clothed in rainbows of living color
Flashes of lightning, rolls of thunder
Blessing and honor, strength and glory
And power be to You the only wise King, yeah

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing praise to the King of Kings
You are my everything and I will adore You
Holy, holy, You are holy

Filled with wonder, awestruck wonder
At the mention of Your name
Jesus, Your name is power, breath and living water
Such a marvelous mystery, yeah

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come, yeah
With all creation I sing praise to the King of Kings
You are my everything and I will adore You

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord, God Almighty
Who was and is and is to come
With all creation I sing praise to the King of Kings
You are my everything and I will adore You, adore you
Holy, holy, You are holy

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.

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!

Thanks Unto Him, for finding a better video for the last song 👏

Now here's a great newer song:

"Wonderful Merciful Savior" written by Philips, Craig, and Dean

Wonderful, merciful Savior
Precious Redeemer and friend
Who would have thought that a lamb could
Rescue the souls of men
Oh, You rescue the souls of men

Counselor, Comforter, Keeper
Spirit we long to embrace
You offer hope when our hearts have
Hopleloessly lost the way
Oh, we hopelessly lost the way

[Chorus]
You are the one that we praise
You are the one we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for

Almighty, infinite Father
Faithfully loving Your own
Here in our weakness You find us
Falling before Your throne
Oh, we're falling before Your throne

[Chorus]

Sung by Selah

I like the song. I just wish it didn't generally come out so bouncy. Not that bouncy is not at least somewhat appropriate. Just that 6/8 beat of 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 . . . . sort of has a thing of its own. Someone did it in a way that was not so bouncy and I liked it much better. Smoothed out the emphasis. Made it more worshipful than wanting to do a Vienna Waltz. (I'll admit that I have not heard PCD's version)

Philips, Craig, and Dean sing their song here, OBW: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dMuLcJT6jME

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

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.

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.

I'm enjoying "Faithful Father" by Brian Doerksen, posted on this site by Unto Him today

I've been hearing "The Lion and the Lamb" on Christian radio, and enjoying it.

Default 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.

"Kyrie Elieson" https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-uzbDpBEAUU

"Glory in the Highest" https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O0RJmvHmrDM

"Unfailing Love" https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PL2...Pg&mode=NORMAL

"Awakening" https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0_J9BI6AFO0 (by Chris Tomlin alone)

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.

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.

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.

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.

Blessed Assurance

  1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
    Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
    Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
    Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
    • Refrain:
      This is my story, this is my song,
      Praising my Savior all the day long;
      This is my story, this is my song,
      Praising my Savior all the day long.
  2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
    Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
    Angels, descending, bring from above
    Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
  3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
    I in my Savior am happy and blest,
    Watching and waiting, looking above,
    Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.
Another hymn I enjoyed from long ago. We sang this at a memorial service for a dear sister who passed on to be with the Lord. (Sonia Smith, passed Nov 4th, she was 95.) This was her favorite song and it was so nice to sing it with the family. It was written by Fanny Crosby in 1873.

Mystery Solved?

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.

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.

In Christ Alone our Hope is Found. They knew this. And knew this very well.
Indeed they did. They were wrong to think though that they had "cornered the market" on truth.... as this song (and other truth filled songs) written by a couple from "Christianity" (the Gettys) demonstrates.

Following is another group singing the same song.

Jesus Messiah another great praise/worship song from Chris Tomlin and others (Danielle Carson, Ed Cash, Jesse Reeves)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdxSC1tHJn0

He became sin, who knew no sin
That we might become His righteousness
He humbled himself and carried the cross
Love so amazing, love so amazing
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah, Lord of all
His body the bread, his blood the wine
Broken and poured out all for love
The whole earth trembled, and the veil was torn
Love so amazing, love so amazing, yeah
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah, Lord of all
All our hope is in You, all our hope is in You
All the glory to You, God, the light of the world
Jesus Messiah, name above all names
Blessed redeemer, Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners, the ransom from Heaven

Good Good Father
Songwriters: Anthony Brown / Joseph Patrick Martin Barrett

Sung by Chris Tomlin

http://www.metrolyrics.com/good-good...video-lwz.html

Lyrics:

I've heard a thousand stories of what they think you're like
But I've heard the tender whispers of love in the dead of night
And you tell me that you're pleased
And that I'm never alone
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
I've seen many searching for answers far and wide
But I know we're all searching
For answers only you provide
'Cause you know just what we need
Before we say a word
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
Because you are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways
You are perfect in all of your ways to us
Oh, it's love so undeniable
I, I can hardly speak
Peace so unexplainable
I, I can hardly think
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
As you call me deeper still
Into love, love, love
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am
You're a good good father
You are perfect in all of your ways
It's who you are, it's who you are, it's who you are
And I'm loved by you
You are perfect in all of your ways
It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am

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

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.

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 is online off course. Anyone is welcome to send me a PM and I'll let you know their website which plays 24/7.

Default 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!

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.

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.

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.

"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.

Enjoy again

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.

To God Be The Glory, EV. Got a great local church hymn that lifts our eyes and hearts to our Savior God? This is the place for it. Please share! We could use some more contributors.

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

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.

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

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, 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.

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.

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.

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

An artist who's a Christian & who occasionally does religious-themed songs has done some that I like.

His name is Sufjan Stevens and my favorite is The Transfiguration, about the scene on the mountain with Peter, James, and John.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JsaE2yZ1Rs

Another, from Isaiah 55:12, is called The Trees of the Field will Clap Their Hands.

I heard “Mighty to Save” on Christian radio this morning. Very uplifting

Laura Story wrote this. Here is her version with lyrics. Kinda grainy, but beautifully sung. To the glory of the risen King!

Oh Come to the Altar by Elevation Worship, today’s Listen Up is great listening.

Videos of people being baptized are thrilling to watch too!

On another note, a song I posted here last December by Chris Tomlinson (He Shall Reign Forever More) has again been raising my heart to praise the Lord for His first coming, and looking to His second in glory.

Default Re: Praise/Worship Song of the Day! Turn Up Your Speakers!

Some songs using English translations of Bernard of Clairvaux’s 10th century Latin verse have been mainstays of Christian hymn books since the 18th century, and survive to this day to encourage us. Here’s one:

Jesus, Thou Joy of Loving Hearts
Written by Bernard of Clairvaux
Translated by Ray Palmer

Sung by Red Mountain Church
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1oYeRE0ehPg

Old LCers will recall this one from “Hymns” published by Living Stream Ministry.

I like this song a lot, but would edit the last two stanzas to be in the affirmative Christ is doing these things, vs praying that they be so. Might have been the Roman Catholic influence showing in Bernard’s verse.

Sad he was venerated as a “Saint” by Rome, instead of following his example to venerate the Lord as “all in all”.

Hmmm, why does this veneration practice seem so familiar? Oh, I got it. Nee venerated M.E. Barber. Lee venerated Nee. Blendeds venerate Lee.

Doh! Stop it JJ! This is a Praise Area!

Correction to what I said yesterday, Bernard of Clairvaux’s verse are dated to 12th Century (1100s).

Here is another song based on his Latin Verse:
O Jesus King Most Wonderful
Translated by Edward Caswall

Lyrics:

O Jesus, king most wonderful,
Thou conqueror renowned,
Thou Sweetness most ineffable,
In whom all joys are found!
When once Thou visitest the heart,
Then truth begins to shine,
Then earthly vanities depart,
Then kindles love divine.
O Jesus, light of all below,
Thou Fount of life and fire,
Surpassing all the joys we know,
And all we can desire!
Thy wondrous mercies are untold,
Through each returning day;
Thy love exceeds a thousand fold,
Whatever we can say.
May every heart confess Thy name;
And ever Thee adore;
And seeking Thee, itself inflame,
To seek Thee more and more.
Thee may our tongues forever bless;
Thee may we love alone;
And ever in our lives express
The image of Thine own.

Singing by Concordia Publishing House https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v2RKlHSInVw

Jesus the Very Thought of Thee - Bernard of Clairvaux
Translated by Edward Caswall

Jesus, the very thought of Thee
With sweetness fills the breast;
But sweeter far Thy face to see
And in Thy presence rest
Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame,
Nor can the mem’ry find
A sweeter sound than Thy blest name,
O Savior of mankind!
O hope of every contrite heart,
O joy of all the meek,
To those who fall, how kind Thou art!
How good to those who seek!
All those who find Thee find a bliss
Nor tongue nor pen can show;
The love of Jesus, what it is,
None but His loved ones know.
Jesus, our only joy be Thou,
As Thou our prize will be;
Jesus, be Thou our glory now,
And through eternity.

Sung by The Lower Lights: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nvKnscOFQ_w

Lord I Lift Your Name on High
Written by Rick Founds 1989
Unto Him posted the Maranatha Singers’ rendition of it today.

LYRICS
Lord I lift your name on high
Lord I love to sing your praises
I'm so glad you are in my life
I'm so glad you came to save us
Lord I lift your name on high
Lord I love to sing your praises
I'm so glad you are in my life
I'm so glad you came to save us
You came from heaven to earth, to show the way
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay
From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky
Lord I lift your name on high
You came from heaven to earth, to show the way
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay
From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky
Lord I lift your name on high

I had a blinding glimpse of the obvious this morning:
The Song of Songs is a song! And, not a dirge either! Therefore I’m singing and dancing with joy to His Song! Well, duh JJ!

I’m linking a song related to this below.

I’m not sure how after decades of being exposed only to Watchman Nee’s Book on Song of Songs, Witness Lee’s Life Study and Chrystalization Study of it (oft quoted by Blendeds and HWFMR) I missed that

Hmm.. I’m imagining an LSM training center with a huge banner with one word “LOVE” on it, and crowds of people in ordinary clothes singing the verses of Song of Songs only (no footnotes), dancing with the joy of Jesus then leaving.

His Banner Over Me - David Ruis, Vineyard Worship
Written by David Ruis, Casey Corum, Tori Baker
Lyric Video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CQlB7uDhwj0 unofficial
Words:
He brought me to his banqueting table
(He brought me to his banqueting table)
He brought me to his banqueting table
(He brought me to his banqueting table)
And his banner over me is love
I am my beloved? s and he is mine
(I am my beloved? s and he is mine)
I am my beloved? s and he is mine
(I am my beloved? s and he is mine)
And his banner over me is love
Yes his banner over me is love

We can feel the love of God in this place
We believe your goodness
We receive your grace
We delight ourselves at your table oh God
You do all things well, just look at our lives
And his banner over me is love
Yes his banner over me is love
His banner over you, his banner over me
His banner over us, it is love, love, love

I heard this song on Christian radio yesterday for the first time:
So Will I (A Hundred Billion X) Hillsong United
Video with Lyrics https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EuYOnYL6G0Y
It needs no further introduction. Just listen, and sing along.

Great and true song, manna-man!

Here’s a song I first heard about 18 years ago when my wife insisted we attend a church again after 20 years of only periodic home meetings after our “local church” had divided on a leadership issue, and we found ourselves on the outside of TLR.

How Great is our God by Chris Tomlin
I heard it again yesterday for the time in a long time and enjoyed singing it again.

I keep hearing “Reckless Love” by Cory Asbury in Christian circles a lot but am having trouble thinking God’s love is reckless.

Here is a link to the song

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Sc6SSH...&start_radio=1

What do you think about this term and the song?

Lord I love to sing your praises
I'm so glad you are in my life
I'm so glad you came to save us
Lord I lift your name on high
Lord I love to sing your praises
I'm so glad you are in my life
I'm so glad you came to save us
You came from heaven to earth, to show the way
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay
From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky
Lord I lift your name on high
You came from heaven to earth, to show the way
From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay
From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky
Lord I lift your name on high
I was just thinking of this song! (however I change the one line to "You came from heaven to earth to BE the way.")

Here's one somewhat similar that was written here locally and we enjoyed singing this weekend:

Quote:
Once You came down to earth
Lived me a perfect life and
There on the cross You
Shed Your blood for my sins.
That life raised from the dead
You put inside my heart Lord
It's really something
I believe in You!

Piper wrote about this, it is interesting that you bring up that question.

https://www.desiringgod.org/intervie...-reckless-love

I personally liked the song when I first heard it. Although it is reckless to claim God is reckless. I’ll continue to assume the author was using poetic license on this one, until I see otherwise.

Thanks for sharing this leastofthese. Looks as though I’m not the only one with a pause on the word “reckless”. Piper picked up on the same concern I have about the word and gives a “workaround” to not get too worked up about it. The words of the rest of the song are great. I don’t care for the singing style, but that’s because I’m old.

Here's an awesome explanation of what the writer/singer meant by reckless...

One of my favorite “but God” in scripture is Eph 2:4. http://biblehub.com/blb/ephesians/2.htm

A bro shared this with me today. Simple faith being expressed!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIaT...ature=youtu.be

Lauren Daigle "You Say"

Lyrics:
1. I keep fighting voices in my mind that say I’m not enough
Every single lie that tells me I will never measure up
Am I more than just the sum of every high and every low?
Remind me once again just who I am, because I need to know

[Chorus]
You say I am loved when I can’t feel a thing
You say I am strong when I think I am weak
You say I am held when I am falling short
When I don’t belong, oh You say I am Yours
And I believe, oh I believe
What You say of me
I believe

2. The only thing that matters now is everything You think of me
In You I find my worth, in You I find my identity

3. Taking all I have and now I'm laying it at Your feet
You have every failure God, and You'll have every victory

My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry,

I just wanted to chime in quickly and add that their explanation is how I interpreted "reckless" the first time I heard it. I have a friend who was called to the scene of a bad accident one time and was so concerned with the people in trouble that he rushed through a chemical spill to get to them, endangering his health in the process. That's how I interpreted it - God's love for us is so great that He was willing to "rush in" and do whatever it took to save us.

Amen Trapped!

I too saw what you saw.

The accuser indeed is working overtime.

In one of the posts a link was provided to a show where a couple of Brothers wrecklessly critiqued the song all because of the word wreckless that was used. They both admitted they were not sure what the true intent of the word expressed was. Yet they chose to wrecklessly assert they're concern which was totally misleading.

I know None of us are perfect, but...

Anyone knows where God's Eternal Economy's tune came from?

No. I don’t recognize it. Hymnal.net lists composer as L.H.

Do It Again
Elevation Worship
Lyric Video https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0B_lnQIITxU
Lyrics:
Walking around these walls
I thought by now they'd fall
But You have never failed me yet
Waiting for change to come
Knowing the battle's won
For You have never failed me yet
Your promise still stands
Great is Your faithfulness, faithfulness
I'm still in Your hands
This is my confidence, You've never failed me yet
I know the night won't last
Your Word will come to pass
My heart will sing Your praise again
Jesus, You're still enough
Keep me within Your love
My heart will sing Your praise again
Your promise still stands
Great is Your faithfulness, faithfulness
I'm still in Your hands
This is my confidence, You never failed
Your promise still stands
Great is Your faithfulness, faithfulness
I'm still in Your hands
This is my confidence, You never failed me yet
I've seen You move, come move the mountains
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
You made a way, where there was no way
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
I've seen You move, come move the mountains
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
You made a way, where there was no way
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
I've seen You move, come move the mountains
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
You made a way, where there was no way
And I believe, I'll see You do it again
I'll see You do it again
Oh-oh
Your promise still stands
Great is Your faithfulness, faithfulness
I'm still in Your hands
This is my confidence, You never failed
Your promise still stands
Great is Your faithfulness, faithfulness
I'm still in Your hands
This is my confidence, You never failed me yet
And You never failed me yet
I never will forget
You never failed me yet
And I never will forget

Alan Jackson - Precious Memories (Gospel Songs)
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=2Wrh1lYmo98

I saw an infomercial on TV for this album (only $29.95 if you order now ).
My wife and I ended up singing along to these old hymns, enjoying the Spirit of Jesus Christ, and looking away to Jesus the author and perfector of our faith. I suspect you will to.

Thanks for posting this song. Brings back great memories of the church life before religion infected it.

Oh! But the church life is still going on!

If we abide in Him!

Thanks manna-man! Great song!

On the other hand I lost my appreciation for “We Love The Church Life” a long time ago. Love the Lord, yes. Love one another, yes. Love your neighbor, yes. Love the church life, no.

Great song by Matt Papa was posted as today’s Listen Up

Hymn in C
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VI8583e3JWI

Lyrics:

God of love,
You came to earth
Born in a manger,
the incarnate Word
Full of grace, and full of truth
You healed the leper,
you made all things new

Religion despised your
word of love
Condemned you to die
in your innocence
A crown of thorns
and mockery
Were yours, my savior,
my precious king

Stained with blood,
and bruised with pain
The lamb of God on
a cross of shame
Never before and
never again
Was love so great,
was death so grim

There on the hill you
died for me
You took my sin,
gave me liberty
I'll never boast,
but in your cross
And all my gains,
I now count as loss

When sins, they
rob my heart of joy
And when condemnation
seems to steal even more
This I recall,
You rose again
And I rose with you.
Hallelujah, Amen

If I live in want or
die in shame
To live is you and
to die is gain
I in you and you in me
My God, my brother,
my identity

Were I tempted with
the best of earth
All it's pleasures and
all it's gold
And if fame in
all it's kingdoms
Was in my hands to hold

I'd scorn it all for
you've given me
The treasure of your son
And now I'm richer
than the richest
For you've given me
your love


Thanks for sharing it, Unto Him. It comes at a good time for me.

JJ, there is always a good time for a great hymn or song! This one has always amazed me, considering it was written by Matt Papa, a young man only in his early 30s. I personally love hymns/songs that are rich in theology, and this one may be one of the best in contemporary Christian music.

Showers of Blessings - D.W. Whittle
Song info: https://hymnary.org/text/there_shall..._blessing_this

Lyrics:

There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.
[Chorus]
Showers of blessing,(Showers, showers of blessing)
Showers of blessing we need;
Mercy drops 'round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

There shall be showers of blessing--
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain. [Chorus]

There shall be showers of blessing:
Send them upon us, O Lord;
Grant to us now a refreshing;
Come and now honor Thy word. [Chorus]

There shall be showers of blessing:
Oh, that today they might fall,
Now as to God we're confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call!

Willie Nelson sings it (really)

Isaiah 54:8
"In an outburst of anger I hid My face from you for a moment, But with everlasting lovingkindness I will have compassion on you," Says the LORD your Redeemer.

Isaiah 54:10
"For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, But My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, And My covenant of peace will not be shaken," Says the LORD who has compassion on you.

Lamentations 3:22
The LORD'S lovingkindnesses indeed never cease, For His compassions never fail.

Here is Love

Here is love, vast as the ocean,
Loving-kindness as the flood,
When the Prince of Life, our Ransom,
Shed for us His precious blood.
Who His love will not remember?
Who can cease to sing His praise?
He can never be forgotten,
Throughout heav’n’s eternal days.

On the mount of crucifixion,
Fountains opened deep and wide;
Through the floodgates of God’s mercy
Flowed a vast and gracious tide.
Grace and love, like mighty rivers,
Poured incessant from above,
And heav’n’s peace and perfect justice
Kissed a guilty world in love.

Let me, all Thy love accepting,
Love Thee, ever all my days;
Let me seek Thy kingdom only,
And my life be to Thy praise;
Thou alone shalt be my glory,
Nothing in the world I see;
Thou hast cleansed and sanctified me,
Thou Thyself hast set me free.

In Thy truth Thou dost direct me
By Thy Spirit through Thy Word;
And Thy grace my need is meeting,
As I trust in Thee, my Lord.
Of Thy fullness Thou art pouring
Thy great love and pow’r on me,
Without measure, full and boundless,
Drawing out my heart to Thee.

I’ve been reading Matthew, and wanted to share verses in Isaiah 9 Jesus fulfilled as Matthew wrote in Chapter 4 and songs to remember. Kid’s first.

Isaiah 9:6 Song - Jump Start 3

Some songs inspired by Matthew 5:1-12
Kids first
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=40gBGL7z0z4

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VBW3w9LrxsM

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5yxs5wFpnGg

Jesus said: Blessed are -
The poor in spirit
Those who mourn
The gentle
Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness
The merciful
The pure in heart
The peacemakers
Those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness
You when you are insulted, persecuted, and falsely said evil of because of Jesus.

I sure didn’t get this teaching in TLR. Not strong in spirit? Not enjoy Christ? Not follow the ministry? Not persecuted for following Nee and Lee?

When one examines the 'voice' in the Psalms one can 'mdiscern the Trinity:

Holy Spirit: "He (the Father) commands His Angel's concerning you (the Son), to guard you wherever you may go..."

The Father: "You (the Son) are my Son, this day I (the Father) have begotten you..."

The Son: " I (the Son) come to do your ( the Father) will, behold in the book it is written concerning me ..."

In all, the relation of a human Son on earth with his Father in heaven is the focus. We see faith, obedience, purity on earth, and protection, care, command from heaven. In all, love pervades. To me, every other issue finds its place in this one. Everything (prophets) looks toward it, or (epistles) reflects back on it.

Amen, aron.

I found it interesting that the devil twisted that passage from Psalm 91 to tempt Jesus in the wilderness. And, that Jesus rejects tempting the Lord his God and doesn’t go along with the devil’s suggestion, showing he trusted the Father and fulfilled the whole Psalm (which is about trusting God in all circumstances).

Can you summarize how the law, gospels, Acts, and Revelation fit in the Trinity theme too?

I’ve been linking songs related to passages in Matthew and its cross references recently because the church I attend has been going through it slowly, and my morning readings and prayer/praise time have been basted in that gospel. As songs based in scripture enrich the joy, encouragement, and admonishment found there, I like to link them here.

While doing that yesterday I came upon a singer I wasn’t familiar with before (Jami Smith). I linked one of her songs yesterday. Here is another I like. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=m_LbEloLvWY. She and the group of singers she records and tours with have other good ones on You Tube too.

Anyone else have an artist with songs that help bring the awesomeness/truth of God’s word into your life to share with us?

The devil twisted the passage because he was weak - he lost the divine protection and care by his disobedience, and now he tried to get Jesus the man (hungry after 40 days of fasting) to make a move.

Jesus didn't move. "Thy (the Father) word I (the Christ) have hid in my heart, that I (the Christ) might not sin against Thee (the Father)". The relation of the Son to the Father is seen again, and again. Out of the storehouse of treasure in his heart, Jesus spoke the word back to the devil and sent him away. He didn't sin.

In prophetic scripture, the Father promises, and provides, and the Son obeys, and believes, and is rewarded. This is called "the faith of Christ". It is not OUR faith IN Christ but HIS faith IN us. Sorry for the all caps but it's critical to see. Otherwise we erringly focus on ourselves and not on him. It is the faith of Christ, not the faith of the believer. It is his faith. This is why the scripture is key to understand the NT. Look at how the NT uses the OT. Where does Paul or Jesus or Peter call the OT "fallen human concepts"? Nowhere, is where.

The law: God promised another Prophet, like Moses. We need to hear him. People were waiting for that Prophet in the gospels. They asked John the Baptist, "Are you the Prophet?" In Acts, when they accused Stephen of overturning Moses, he said that their fathers were disobedient to Moses.

Acts 7:35 “This is the same Moses they had rejected with the words, ‘Who made you ruler and judge?’ He was sent to be their ruler and deliverer by God himself, through the angel who appeared to him in the bush.

36 He led them out of Egypt and performed wonders and signs in Egypt, at the Red Sea and for forty years in the wilderness.

37 “This is the Moses who told the Israelites, ‘God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your own people.’ 38 He was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our ancestors; and he received living words to pass on to us.

39 “But our ancestors refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts turned back to Egypt."

Jesus is the Word that comes forth from God. All things come into being through him. Only he can supplant Moses. The NT argument was, "If you listened to Moses, you would obey Jesus, because Moses said "A prophet God will raise up like me; you must hear him". Deuteronomy 18:15-19

I heard this song this morning, for the first time in a long time. It seemed to really fit where my heart was at. I’d never seen the music video. Check it out.

Glorious Unfolding - Steven Curtis Chapman
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GKMjEvF2Fkw

Words:
Lay your head down tonight
Take a rest from the fight
Don’t try to figure it out
Just listen to what i’m whispering to your heart
‘Cause I know this is not
Anything like you thought
The story of your life was gonna be
And it feels like the end has started closing in on you
But it’s just not true
There’s so much of the story that’s still yet to unfold
And this is going to be a glorious unfolding
Just you wait and see and you will be amazed
You’ve just got to believe the story is so far from over
So hold on to every promise god has made to us
And watch this glorious unfolding
God’s plan from the start
For this world and your heart
Has been to show His glory and His grace
Forever revealing the depth and the beauty of
His unfailing love
And the story has only begun
And this is going to be a glorious unfolding
Just you wait and see and you will be amazed
We’ve just got to believe the story is so far from over
So hold on to every promise god has made to us
And watch this glorious unfolding
We were made to run through fields of forever
Singing songs to our savior and king
So let us remember this life we’re living
Is just the beginning of the beginning
Of this glorious unfolding
We will watch and see and we will be amazed
If we just keep on believing the story is so far from over
And hold on to every promise god has made to us
We’ll see the glorious unfolding
Just watch and see (unfolding)
This is just the beginning of the beginning (unfolding)

There is Joy in The Lord
by Cheri Keaggy

All blessing and honor are His
All glory and power are His
Let all wisdom and strength
Be the Lord's in this place
Let all glory be given to Him
There is joy in the Lord
There is love in His Spirit
There is hope in the knowledge of Him
There's a fountain that flows
Like a river from heaven
Abounding in love to my soul
There is joy in the Lord
There is love in His Spirit
There is hope in the knowledge of Him
There's a fountain I know
Ev'ry time I am near it
My heart overflows to the Lord
Songwriters: Cheri Keaggy
There Is Joy in the Lord lyrics © Sparrow Song, Universal Music-careers, EMI CHRISTIAN MUSIC O/B/O SPARROW SONG

Methinks the joy of Jesus overshadows the sufferings we go through as Christians

Grace Upon Grace - Brooke and Boggs
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fCR93GIRMGU

Give this a listen and share your thoughts about it, and I’ll share mine (want you to listen without my opinion first).

I found it after the Lord reminded me this morning that he overflows and abounds in all He does (and I don’t without Him, but do with and in Him to His glory)

I hope you enjoy the song.

Songs re: Christ as our Passover
The Passover Song - Sean Carter and Caroline Cobb
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=CVowp0VnpHg

The Passover Song - Shira Kline
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_HCBieuV-QU

Lion King Passover
Humorous Jewish take on Passover Supper
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qervY5HSzqM

Verses
Exodus 12
https://biblehub.com/bsb/exodus/12.htm

Luke 22
https://biblehub.com/blb/luke/22.htm

1 Cor 5
https://biblehub.com/blb/1_corinthians/5.htm

As I read church history re Easter, it became apparent that Christians began the tradition to celebrate Christ as the fulfillment of the Passover at the same time Jews were celebrating Passover.

So this week is a good time to keep the feast of unleavened bread (sincerely and truth) and celebrate Christ’s death as the lamb of God to save our household from the destroyer and strengthen us for the journey to freedom and our new home in the promised land.

Today’s Listen Up is one we sang a lot in my “local church”.
And Can it Be (Stuart Townsend)

Nice to hear it here!

Also, I’m reposting a great song previously posted on this board. I sang it as a visitor in a church I visited while on vacation recently. Very enjoyable to sing to the Lord wholeheartedly with them!

'Lord Of Lords ' from the Hillsong Worship album 'Saviour King', released in July 2007.

https://youtu.be/bDbvKqXLL7k

Verse 1
Beholding Your beauty is all that I long for
To worship You Jesus is my sole desire
For this very heart
You have shaped for Your pleasure
Purposed to lift Your Name higher

Verse 2
Here in surrender in pure adoration
I enter Your courts with an offering of praise
I am Your servant come to bring You glory
As is fit for the works of Your hands

Chorus 1
Now unto the Lamb
Who sits on the throne
Be glory and honour and praise
All of creation resounds with the song
Worship and praise Him
The Lord of lords

Verse 3
Spirit now living and dwelling within me
Keep my eyes fixed ever on Jesus' face
Let not the things of this world ever sway me
I'll run 'til I finish the race

Chorus 2
Now unto the Lamb
Who sits on the throne
Be glory and honour and praise
All of eternity echoes the song
Worship and praise Him
The Lord of lords

Chorus 3
Now unto the Lamb
Who sits on the throne
Be glory and honour and praise
Call all the sinners to join in the song
Worship and praise Him
The Lord of lords

Bridge
Holy Lord
You are holy
Jesus Christ is the Lord

I've seen this name in various forms all over the internet. I have concluded that it is Stuart Townend (no "s"). Many of his songs are written in conjunction with Keith and Kristen Getty, including another posted here, "In Christ Alone." Together they are one of the better writers of modern hymns. More than just feel good music or pop-Christian music.

King of Kings | Brooke Ligertwood | Live at Bethel 2019

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o04D93QgxQw

OPENING:
Praise the Father
Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit three in one
God of glory
Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings

VERSE 1:
In the darkness we were waiting
Without hope without light
Till from heaven You came running
There was mercy in Your eyes

To fulfil the law and prophets
To a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt

CHORUS:
Praise the Father
Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit three in one
God of glory
Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings

VERSE 2:
To reveal the kingdom coming
And to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation
You did not despise the cross

For even in Your suffering
You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation
Jesus for our sake You died

VERSE 3:
And the morning that You rose
All of heaven held its breath
Till that stone was moved for good
For the Lamb had conquered death

And the dead rose from their tombs
And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who’d come
To the Father are restored

VERSE 4:
And the Church of Christ was born
Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this gospel truth of old
Shall not kneel shall not faint

By His blood and in His Name
In His freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ
Who has resurrected me

Right, Stuart Townend, an English Christian song writer has written many great worship songs including How Great the Fathers love for Us https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dLDGVl8D5UU (Fernando Ortega sings it here), In Christ Alone, and many others widely sung today. He has his own web site (easy to find with a web browser) has albums for sale and goes on tours

Thank the Lord for enriching us with this brother’s songs.

In my morning meditation I had this song come up in me and really enjoyed singing it - loudly! (I think I'll see if the Thursday breakfast bros can sing it this week!)

Praise the Lord God Sent His Son - Hallelujah!

1. Praise the Lord, God sent His Son,
Hallelujah!
And salvation’s work was done,
Glory to God!
God Himself became a man,
So that we might live in Him.

Chorus:
That’s why I call on Him,
I give my all to Him.

2. For us He was crucified,
Hallelujah!
For the many, one Man died,
Glory to God!
One grain fell into the earth,
Many grains to bring to birth.

3. He arose in victory,
Hallelujah!
From the grave, triumphantly,
Glory to God!
Now in resurrection He
As the Spirit lives in me.

4. Call on Him from deep within,
Hallelujah!
Just by calling, He comes in,
Glory to God!
Once you call upon His name,
Nevermore you’ll be the same.

Final Chorus:
We all must call on Him,
We give our all to Him.

StG,
I remember this song vividly. It was one of the many that were set to "worldly" tunes. At some point "the brothers" in So.Calif. decided that it was not so appropriate for spiritual songs to be song to worldly tunes. Later, we found out that some complaints came in from persons/companies that held the copyright to those tunes.

Here is another song from those "supplemental" days:

"Oh do come, oh do come, says Spirit and the bride - Take freely the water of life!"

How about this one: https://soundcloud.com/hymnstream/im...-down-the-road

I’m walking down the road
That leads to glory.
I’m pressing toward the mark
By enjoying God!
I don’t know so much,
Just to love Him.
I’m walking down the road,
Glory, here I come.
1
With the brothers and the sisters,
We enjoy Him day by day.
It’s so simple and easy,
Our worries flee away.
Now we’re growing together,
As one big family,
Abiding in the joy of the Lord.
2
We enjoy You, Lord Jesus,
In our experience.
We’re getting to know You—
It’s making us leap and dance.
Just eating and drinking,
It’s what we do the best,
Delighting in the love of the Lord.
3
We’re walking, not running,
Cause we’re in the pasture land.
Our Shepherd is nearby,
We’re trusting in His hand.
He’s everything to us,
He’s all we ever need,
Resting in the peace of the Lord.

In Tenderness by citizens, today’s Listen Up, is testament to Jesus’ saving power coming through to save some in this generation, and their joining in His praise. Eternal message is the gospel.

I heard a powerful message that referred to Psalm 125 this weekend. The words of the Psalm were so reassuring to me, and challenging. I looked for a song on it and found a Christian singer I hadn’t heard of before. Sharing it here. I hope you like it.

Not a song, but this is a very encouraging declaration of scripture’s truths about our God’s amazing names. Enjoy

Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus -
Psalm 150 Productions
Author: Louisa M.R. Stead (1882)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-DdgkvnsHjM

Words:

1 'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
and to take him at his word;
just to rest upon his promise,
and to know, "Thus saith the Lord."
Refrain:
Jesus, Jesus, how I trust him!
How I've proved him o'er and o'er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust him more!

2 O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
just to trust his cleansing blood;
and in simple faith to plunge me
neath the healing, cleansing flood! [Refrain]

3 Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
just from sin and self to cease;
just from Jesus simply taking
life and rest, and joy and peace. [Refrain]

“Obey”, now there’s a word we didn’t hear associated with Jesus very often in TLR. Rather trust and obey the LC leaders..... no matter what.

Sing Aloud Your Praises to the Lord of All
Video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mgT3jQtKrs4
Lyrics: https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/h/1222

I found myself singing this old song from “The Supplement”
Does anyone know who wrote it?
Hymnal.net gives no one credit and claims copyright on it.

I'm curious about who wrote the words to this? Someone handed it out at Sunday's gathering and we sang it.

My old man has been crucified with Him,
With all its foul corruption deep within;
And buried too its nature serpentine,
Completely finished—this great fact is mine,
I hold it fast.

But there's a Person in my spirit now,
Born as a babe so small, so weak, so low;
Who by the Word's pure milk will grow to be
The overcoming inner man in me
To gain my heart.

Christ as my Person must possess my heart
And be preeminent in every part.
The former owner died but haunts it still.
O Lord, move in; my mind, emotion, will
Now welcome Thee.

In spirit mingled, we are one, O Lord,
The human and divine in one accord;
Yet Thou must have a proper faculty
That all Thy glorious personality
May be expressed.

So, Lord, I give my heart to Thee today,
That it may be Thy home in every way,
A place for Thee to come and settle down,
And all Thy grand recovery work to crown
In one new man.

Apparently it is "Hymn #1179". Here is a version sang by a young sister:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4Sgra9EuB0

Here is a version sung by the "Long Beach Trainees".
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N46X9TlIJMA

I'm assuming this was part of the original "Supplement", which was a collection of hymns, songs and arranged Psalms produced in the early to mid 70s. Many of these supplemental songs were basically Witness Lee's teachings set to music. Sometimes they were set to secular contemporary music. To my recollection, none of the authors were listed, although it was common knowledge that a number of these supplemental songs were written by the late Howard Hagashi.

At some point, a number of these early supplemental songs were incorporated into a newer version of the Local Church hymnal. I am not sure if this particular song was in the original supplement or not.

Thanks for sharing some about “The Supplement”. When I started meeting with TLR in late 1978, The Supplement already existed and was used, but it fell out of favor vs “Hymns” for the better part of a decade as Witness Lee spoke against some of its songs after Max Rappaport exited; but many of its songs were added to the back of Hymns by the mid-1980’s and gradually saw increased use in meetings again.

I recall that Dan Toule (spelling?), then an elder in Fullerton, had penned a song or two (maybe more) that took popular hymns and altered them to fit things Witness Lee had spoken “How Small Thou Art” from “How Great Thou Art” comes to mind.

Any other LC “old timers” care to add more?

JJ - the Lord is with your spirit, grace is with you!

Pursuant to the "My old man has been crucified with Him" song, this morning I noticed something. It starts with my old man's crucifixion, and ends with the "one new man.' I hadn't that noticed before. He crucifies the old that we could be made part of the new man! (and to hearken to another old song - "for with time there is the process . . .")

One Spirit, One Church

Sung by Kevin Keil

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jvjCwZs3SUQ

Lyrics:
Refrain: We are a pilgrim people,
we are the Church of God.
A family of believers,
disciples of the Lord.
United in one spirit,
ignited by the fire.
Still burning through the ages,
still present in our lives.
1. Come, Holy Ghost, Creator blest,
and in our hearts take up thy rest;
come with thy grace and heavenly aid
to fill the hearts which thou hast made.
2. O Comforter, to thee we cry,
thou gift of God sent from on high.
Thou font of life and fire of love,
the souls anointing from above.

Yes and No.

I realize this thread is not really for discussion, but as we are in the final days of advent leading up to the celebration of the incarnation of the Word, it seems appropriate — at least a little.

Mary knew. But was continually learning what it meant. She knew he was the coming Messiah. But did she know that that meant? Not a king for an earthly throne, but a martyr to make a spiritual home in his people?

This was a dark point in history. The light was coming, but was not yet seen. Mary had hope, not certainty of knowledge.

The shepherds got a show of light and sound, and they went to Bethlehem to see. But then saw nothing more for at least 30 years afterward.

The town of Bethlehem was mostly unaware. Jerusalem, just a few miles away was clueless. It wasn't until the magi arrived some time later that anyone in Jerusalem finally got a clue, but still did not go to see.

While Mary was eventually part of the group of women following on his journeys, it does not appear that it was always so. She didn't understand his Father's calling when he was 12, and was somewhat chastised many years later when she and some of his brothers came to see him during his ministry travels.

Even the disciples who were with him for virtually his whole ministry still did not get it when the soldiers came in the garden and carried him away to be crucified.

The real knowing did not start until the morning of the resurrection. First with the women and then with some of the disciples. Then the two on the road to Emmaus. Then a closed room full. Eventually a few hundred in all.

Then the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. At that point, they knew. So much began to fall into place during those few days before he ascended from their sight.

We are the beneficiaries of a young girl who had enough faith to undertake a task she did not fully understand that would change the course of history. While not as the RCC does it, her name should be forever blessed.

I realize this has been around since 2008 (and the text since about 1863-64) but it only came to my attention a couple of years ago. But it was not just the sound, or the effect of a redo of an old poem/song that caught my attention, but the story behind the poem and the manner in which this new tune brought it out.

Over the course of just over two years, his wife was severely burned and died when her favorite dress caught fire in 1861, followed in late 1863 when his son who despite forbidding him to join the Union army was wounded. As the man went to the train station to collect his wounded son in late December and saw a friend there to collect a coffin with his.

In the next months, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow would write the poem “Christmas Bells” recalling the darkness in which he found himself as he heard church bells ringing as he went to the station that day. The poem seems more dark than light with verses (never sung) that speak too graphicly of the war that was going on.

Yet in the midst of it, there is “peace on earth.”

Over the years, the traditional song “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day” doesn’t seem to do the underlying text justice. But the recent rendition by Casting Crowns has seemed to capture some of the juxtaposition of darkness and light that is woven through the poem. Like “Breath of Heaven,” and “Mary, Did You Know,” this song casts off the presumption of cheer and frivolity to bring us to the mostly unannounced birth of a baby in the midst of dark times. A promise of a kingdom of peace yet to be realized.

I Heard the Bells (Peace on Earth)

Right, it seems that Mary knew, but like us, she and Joseph were slow on the uptake, and until the complete ministry of their son unfolded and after His death and resurrection and the Holy Spirit was poured out it became crystal clear.

Here are “the puzzle pieces Mary and Joseph were given (verses copied from Berean Study Bible):

Angel Gabriel:
Behold, you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David, and He will reign over the house of Jacob forever. His kingdom will never end!”

The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the Holy One to be born will be called the Son of God.

Elizabeth:

why am I so honored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

Gabriel to Joseph: Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to embrace Mary as your wife, for the One conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a Son, and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.

Shepherds:

And there were shepherds residing in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks by night. Just then, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid! For behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people: Today in the City of David a Savior has been born to you. He is Christ the Lord! And this will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

And suddenly there appeared with the angel a great multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying:

Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men
on whom His favor rests!”
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”

So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph and the Baby, who was lying in the manger. After they had seen the Child, they spread the message they had received about Him. And all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart.

Simeon:
Now there was a man in Jerusalem named Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he would not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. Ledby the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. And when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for Him what was customary under the Law, Simeon took Him in his arms and praised God, saying:

“Sovereign Lord, as You have promised,
You now dismiss Your servant in peace.
For my eyes have seen Your salvation,
which You have prepared in the sight of all people,
a light for revelation to the Gentiles,
and for glory to Your people Israel.”
The Child’s father and mother were amazed at what was spoken about Him. Then Simeon blessed them and said to His mother Mary:

“Behold, this Child is appointed to cause
the rise and fall of many in Israel,
and to be a sign that will be spoken against,
so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed—
and a sword will pierce your soul as well.”
Anna:
There was also a prophetess named Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher, who was well along in years. She had been married for seven years, and then was a widow to the age of eighty-four. She never left the temple, but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying.

Coming forward at that moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the Child to all who were waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.

The Boy Jesus:
Every year His parents went to Jerusalem for the Feast of the Passover. And when He was twelve years old, they went up according to the custom of the Feast.

When those days were over and they were returning home, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jerusalem, but His parents were unaware He had stayed. Assuming He was in their company, they traveled on for a day before they began to look for Him among their relatives and friends.

When they could not find Him, they returned to Jerusalem to search for Him. Finally, after three days they found Him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. And all who heard Him were astounded at His understanding and His answers.

When His parents saw Him, they were astonished. “Child, why have You done this to us?” His mother asked. “Your father and I have been anxiously searching for You.”

“Whywere you looking for Me?” He asked. “Did you not know that I had to be in My Father’s houseg ?” But they did not understand the statement He was making to them.

Then He went down to Nazareth with them and was subject to them. But His mother treasured up all these things in her heart.

And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man.

So Mary knew the upside prophecies. That would leave a lot unknown.

Not saying that the rest is "downside," but that the whole "lamb of God" side of the equation, coupled with no overthrow of the Romans did not figure into their understanding. And all of that played out in what was likely a painful way (from Mary's perspective).

Over the course of just over two years, his wife was severely burned and died when her favorite dress caught fire in 1861, followed in late 1863 when his son who despite forbidding him to join the Union army was wounded. As the man went to the train station to collect his wounded son in late December and saw a friend there to collect a coffin with his.

In the next months, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow would write the poem “Christmas Bells” recalling the darkness in which he found himself as he heard church bells ringing as he went to the station that day. The poem seems more dark than light with verses (never sung) that speak too graphicly of the war that was going on.

Yet in the midst of it, there is “peace on earth.”

Over the years, the traditional song “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day” doesn’t seem to do the underlying text justice. But the recent rendition by Casting Crowns has seemed to capture some of the juxtaposition of darkness and light that is woven through the poem. Like “Breath of Heaven,” and “Mary, Did You Know,” this song casts off the presumption of cheer and frivolity to bring us to the mostly unannounced birth of a baby in the midst of dark times. A promise of a kingdom of peace yet to be realized.

I Heard the Bells (Peace on Earth)
Yes, knowing the back story of the song totally changes the understanding and appreciation for this song. And, Casting Crowns version captures Longfellow’s view of it well.

Thanks for sharing both the song and its backstory.

Yes, it is doubtful Mary would have known how Jesus would save his people from their sins or what a light for revelation to the gentiles would involve. And certainly she wouldn’t have known that it would take over 2000 years to see Israel ruled by its Christ in a manifest way (overthrow its Roman rulers).

And hearing the words “a sword will pierce your soul” can’t compare to the reality of watching her son be arrested, falsely accused, tried and found guilty of death by her Jewish leaders and oppressive government, brutally beaten and whipped with a cat of nine tails, mocked, crucified, and placed into a tomb.

As I read the words of Mary Did You Know?https://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/pent...idyouknow.html, she would have known most of the things, but certainly not all of what the song asks.

Had this song come up in me this morning. (to the tune of "Where have all the Flowers Gone?")

Praise the Lord God sent His Son!
Hallelujah!
And salvations work was done!
Glory to God!
One grain fell into the earth -
Many sons to bring to birth!
That's why I call on Him!
I give my all to Him!

Yes, Praise the Lord God sent His Son!

That’s one of those old Supplement songs I remember singing it too. Then it was banished, then brought back.

Today it’s in hymnal.net here https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/ns/79

Anyone know who actually penned this? It obviously was influenced by Witness Lee’s Ministry.

Don't know who wrote it. Someone brought it up at a gathering in Scottsdale recently and we sang it (that's why it's fresh in me). Is this something that could be sang by Christians everywhere, or do you think there a "taint" to it?

Here are the full lyrics:

Praise the Lord, God sent His Son,
Hallelujah!
And salvation's work was done,
Glory to God!
God Himself became a man,
So that we might live in Him.
That's why I call on Him,
I give my all to Him.

For us He was crucified,
Hallelujah!
For the many, one Man died,
Glory to God!
One grain fell into the earth,
Many grains to bring to birth.
That's why I call on Him,
I give my all to Him.

He arose in victory,
Hallelujah!
From the grave, triumphantly,
Glory to God!
Now in resurrection He
As the Spirit lives in me.
That's why I call on Him,
I give my all to Him.

Call on Him from deep within,
Hallelujah!
Just by calling, He comes in,
Glory to God!
Once you call upon His name,
Nevermore you'll be the same.
We all must call on Him,
We give our all to Him.

STG: Is this something that could be sang by Christians everywhere, or do you think there a "taint" to it?

I like most who frequent these boards have a “once bitten twice shy” attitude toward all things LSM retains copyright on.

I like the song. Two things that caught my eye “He as the Spirit....” and “we all must call on him”.

The first is based on Lee’s processed God teaching where Christ becomes The Spirit which is debatable. The second includes “must” another word oft-used by Lee and smacks of violating our choice and sadly reminds me of mindless chanting sessions in local church meetings.

I would love to make some edits to this song (and others in LSM’s Hymns and hymnal.net) to replace non-scriptural phrases like these with scriptural phrases. But I’d need to get LSM’s permission. Something I haven’t wanted to take on.

Behold I Make All Things New (Alpha)
Alana Levandoski

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqiBc9uPkG0

Revelation 21:5 https://biblehub.com/blb/revelation/21.htm

This New Year I am more grateful than ever for the hope of glory that comes in our Lord Jesus Christ.

40 days ago I lay flat on my back in a freezing cold operating room as a brain surgeon and his team with all of their high tech surgical equipment readied themselves to anethesize me, and do the rather barbaric, but life prolonging, task of removing a brain tumor from my head. Tonight the tumor is gone (except microscopic pieces not possible to remove) my head is healed up, and I feel better than the day before that. In the month before and since my wife and I were girded up by faith in Jesus, the power of The Holy Spirit and by the encouraging words and prayers of over 100 Christians we know from many different cities, including some of you who knew.

That was the end of 2019. An amazing thing to be so grateful for. Praise Him for another year to spread His renown, expect, and hasten His return when He will truly make all things new, just like He does every day from within now.

Looking forward to 2020 with y’all. My friends.

OBW (from The Bible as the Absolute Authority thread):
“ I always like Psalm 19.

‘The heavens are telling the glory of God.’

Sang that in a choir back in high school. ("The Creation" by Hyden)

So not only does the Bible reveal God, but the very heavens do the same without words. And Paul underscores this in Romans. We all know something of God because of what is seen around us. We may dismiss it as simply "
natural," but it is there.”

Great lead OBW!

Wow, beautiful video for a beautiful song. Thanks for posting it manna man

I heard this song many times while growing up as an unbeliever and didn’t have a clue what it was singing about, until now.

Lyrics:

Verse 1
Shame is a prison as cruel as a grave
Shame is a robber and he’s come to take my name
Love is my redeemer lifting me up from the ground
Love is the power where my freedom song is found

Chorus
There ain’t no grave gonna hold my body down
There ain’t no grave gonna hold my body down
When I hear that trumpet sound, I’m gonna rise up out of the ground
There ain’t no grave gonna hold my body down

Verse 2
Fear is a liar with a smooth and velvet tongue
Fear is a tyrant, he’s always telling me to run
Love is resurrection and love is a trumpet sound
Love is my weapon, I’m gonna take my giants down

Verse 3
There was a battle, a war between death and life
There on a tree the Lamb of God was crucified
He went on down to hell, He took back every key
He rose up as a lion and He’s setting all the captives free

Chorus 2
There ain’t no grave could hold His body down
There ain’t no grave could hold His body down
When He heard the trumpet sound, He rose up out of the ground
There ain’t no grave could hold His body down
There ain’t no grave could hold His body down

Bridge
If You walked out of the grave, I’m walkin’ too


Ain’t No Grave

Music as a vehicle for God's word is a powerful thing. It was happening in the LC 40 years ago, especially with the Psalms, and WL shut it down.

“Christ Our Hope in Life and Death

What is our hope in life and death?
Christ alone, Christ alone.
What is our only confidence?
That our souls to him belong.
Who holds our days within his hand?
What comes, apart from his command?
And what will keep us to the end?
The love of Christ, in which we stand.

O sing hallelujah!
Our hope springs eternal;
O sing hallelujah!
Now and ever we confess
Christ our hope in life and death.

What truth can calm the troubled soul?
God is good, God is good.
Where is his grace and goodness known?
In our great Redeemer’s blood.
Who holds our faith when fears arise?
Who stands above the stormy trial?
Who sends the waves that bring us nigh
Unto the shore, the rock of Christ?

Unto the grave, what shall we sing?
“Christ, he lives; Christ, he lives!”
And what reward will heaven bring?
Everlasting life with him.
There we will rise to meet the Lord,
Then sin and death will be destroyed,
And we will feast in endless joy,
When Christ is ours forevermore.

Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)
Author: John Newton (1779)

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3o8b9LjxF0M
Sung by Darlene Zschech

Original Lyrics (rarely fully used)

1 Amazing grace (how sweet the sound)
that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now I see.

2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed!

3 Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come:
'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.

4 The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.

5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease:
I shall possess, within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.

6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
the sun forbear to shine;
but God, who called me here below,
will be forever mine.

Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Shane and Shane

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=P1qgyLTH6Xg


https://hymnary.org/text/o_soul_are_...y_and_troubled

Lyrics

1. O soul, are you weary and troubled?
No light in the darkness you see?
There’s light for a look at the Savior,
And life more abundant and free!
Refrain:
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
Look full in His wonderful face,
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,
In the light of His glory and grace.
2. Thro' death into life everlasting,
He passed, and we follow Him there;
O’er us sin no more hath dominion--
For more than conqu’rors we are!
3. His Word shall not fail you--He promised;
Believe Him, and all will be well:
Then go to a world that is dying,
His perfect salvation to tell!

Psalm 37 Song
Jason Silver

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rGCZsZMgrXE


https://biblehub.com/bsb/psalms/37.htm

C.S. Lewis: “God in the Psalms is the “all-satisfying Object.” His people adore him unashamedly for the “exceeding joy” they find in him (Psalm 43:4). He is the source of complete and unending pleasure: “In your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures-forevermore” (Psalm 16:11).”

Very mellow, nice rendition with the Lord as if He were singing to us first and then us to Him.

I tempered the storm
Though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept
And the night waged war
We stood in the fire
And we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine
That was made of Me

Don't turn your eyes from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely come surely come

I carried that cross
And I felt your pain
I took up your crown
And I wore your shame
And death was a fire
And its teeth were grim
But I left it behind
Along with all your sin

Don't turn away from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely Come surely come

Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And I won't forsake you

Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Know I'll never leave you
So lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go

And My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
And I'm closer than you know
And I'm closer than you know

Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me

I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know You're with me here

Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me

I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know that You are here

For I'm Yours and You are mine
And my soul knows well
You are here

You are here
And my soul will praise You
And my soul will praise Your Name
Singing Holy is Your Name
Jesus
Jesus
