Favorite Lyrics....

[kistan]

I am a newbie and i hope this hasnt been done already...but here goes.. Share with everybody some of your favorite praise or worship lyrics (doesnt have to be from your favorite musician)....might just be a pick me up for someone...
for me there are a couple but (even oldies like How great thou art) but presently Nicole's "my redeemer lives" just makes me wanna lift up holy hands on I 95. (not happened)..... an example....

The very same God that spins things in orbit

He runs to the weary, the worn and the weak

And the same gentle hands that hold me when I'm broken

They conquered death to bring me victory




Be blessed...

[happily_married]

These have to be mine.......and yes this has kinda been done but there are so many newbies aboard...it needed to get done again.....I love to sing the word of God and read all the new lyrics......

"I can only imagine what it will be like, when I walk by Your side...
I can only imagine, what my eyes will see, when Your Face is before me!
I can only imagine. I can only imagine.
Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?
Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?
Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine! I can only imagine!

I can only imagine, when that day comes, when I find myself standing in the Son.
I can only imagine, when all I will do, is forever, forever worship You!
I can only imagine! I can only imagine!

Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?

Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?
Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine! Yeah! I can only imagine!

Surrounded by Your Glory, what will my heart feel?

Will I dance for you, Jesus? Or in awe of You, be still?
Will I stand in Your presence, or to my knees will I fall?
Will I sing 'Hallelujah!'? Will I be able to speak at all?
I can only imagine! Yeah! I can only imagine!

I can only imagine! Yeah! I can only imagine!! Only imagine!!!
I can only imagine.

I can only imagine, when all I do is forever, forever worship You!
I can only imagine."

As we lift up our hands
Will You meet us here
As we call on Your name
Will You meet us here
We have come to this place
To worship You
God of mercy and grace

It is You
We adore
It is You
Praises are for
Only You
The heavens declare
It is You
It is You

And holy, holy is our God almighty
And holy, holy is His name alone, yeah
And holy, holy is our God almighty
And holy, holy is His name alone

It is You
We adore
It is You
Only You

As we lift up our hands
As we call on Your name
Will you visit this place
By Your mercy and grace

[Mackenzie]

Both the songs above are awesome songs

[KingdomBound]

Here's another Neswboys song that I LOVE... it's from Adoration:The Worship Album!


Father, Blessed Father

Will You take what we have
A sacrifice unto You
Then create clean hands
And, Lord, make our spirits new

Father, blessed Father
Lead and guide us for Your name’s sake
And keep us in the shelter of Your presence
‘Til we see Your face

Let us hear what You say
Let us know Your voice and all of Your ways
Take our hands, lead us home
To the refuge that we find in You alone

All adoration
To our Lord Redeemer
To our Shepherd
Who carries us forevermore

Breathe on me
Breathe, oh, Breath of God
(Breathe, oh, Breath of Life)
Breathe on me
‘Til my heart is new
Oh Lord, oh Lord
‘Til my heart is new

[TorC]

Yes, Nicole C. Mullens' song "Redeemer" is beautiful. It's a great song. You have good taste, kistan! I like a lot of Nicole C. Mullen's songs. They are inspiring.

By the way, has anyone heard of Kelly Minter? She is a fairly new Christian artist and I just heard of her recently (and then got her cd for Christmas ), but she is also really good! I think her cd was produced by Margaret Becker, who is also her spirtual mentor. Man,I need one of those(mentor)! lol....

[miepie]

I love this song, its from Robin Mark, called Be unto Your Name

Be unto your name
We are a moment You are forever
Lord of the ages God before time
We are a vapor You are eternal
Love everlasting reigning on high

Holy holy Lord God Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
Highest praises honor and glory
Be unto Your name
Be unto Your name

We are the broken You are the healer
Jesus Redeemer mighty to save
You are the love song we'll sing forever
Bowing before You blessing Your name

Be unto Your name

and I am a BIG Michael W. Smithfan, and I love the song Purified

Purified
Where the angels see
You are praised as You should be.
But how can I express
My yearning for Your Holiness.
May it be (that)

I will open my heart
Search me in the deepest part.
And I will stand in cleansing fire,
By You, purified,
By You I'm purified.

Savior of my soul
To your strength I yield control.
Purge me of my stain
Sin will lose it's mortal reign.
Make me free (and)

I will open my heart
Search me in the deepest part.
And I will stand in cleansing fire,
By You, purified,
By You I'm purified.

You are Holy

I will open my heart
Search me in the deepest part.
And I will stand in cleansing fire,
By You, purified,
By You I'm purified.

You are Holy

Love you,
Mieke

I LOVE this song...... it's awesome

[ejant]

There are many songs that I love.
There is one in particular that I can never hear enough of;

Amazing Grace.

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.

Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear,
the hour I first believed!

Through many dangers, toils, and snares
I have already come.
Tis grace that brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.

When we've been there ten thousand years,
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's grace,
than when we first begun.

[KingdomBound]

I LOVE Amazing Grace! That has definitely gotta be one of my favorites!

This is another awesome song by Newsboys from their Thrive Album.

Rescue

Old as the hills, new everyday
It's in the bones like it's DNA
First taste is sweet 'til it rots in your mouth
Another old friend who rats you out
All of the time in this life
Can't loose the ties that bind
They shackle our feet, we trip, we fall
We crawl
I was born in the mess of it all

Then You rescued me, rescued me
Lord, with a touch of Your hand
Another captive free again
Who else in heaven could do this but You?
You rescued me, rescued me
Lord, with a love out of mind
Oh, You know I love it when
Everyday I am rescued again

Over the years your nature's way
Is turning wrongs into roles you play
Caught in a spell that's overcast
You gain perspective, it doesn't last
All of the time in this life
Can't loose the ties that blind you
They're new everyday, old as the fall
The fall
And I was born in the mess of it all

Then You rescued me, rescued me
Lord, with a touch of Your hand
Another captive free again
Who else in heaven could do this but You?
You rescued me, rescued me
Lord, with a love out of mind
Oh, You know I love it when
Everyday I am rescued again

Every day, every way, every
Every cheap imitation
All of my imagination
Even my self-preservation
Is yours in time

You rescued me, rescued me
Lord, with a touch of Your hand
Another captive free again...


Music by Peter Furler / Lyrics by Peter Furler, Steve Taylor and Phil Joel

Let Your living waters flow over my soul
let Your Holy Spirit come and take control of evrey situation that has troubled my mind.

Jesus, Holy Jesus, Jesus

Jason Upton makes some wonderful music! He truly speaks from the spirit.
In one song he is talking about the change this generation is going to make and he says,

"even their shadows are gonna heal people, even their shadows are gonna set people free!"

I love the imagery.

I don't know that many people know about him but you can visit his site and sample some music at http://www.jasonupton.com/

This song is the song my soul sings. It maybe a little old but it is still full of meaning.

I Love You Lord
Words and music by Laurie Klein

(Chorus)
I love you, Lord
And I lift my voice
To worship You
Oh, my soul rejoice!
Take joy my King
In what You hear
Let it be a sweet, sweet sound in Your ear

Repeat Chorus

I love you, Lord...

[God'schild]

Here's mine favorite Hymn:

We Come This Far By Faith

We've come this far by faith, Leaning on the Lord: Trusting his holy
Word, He's never failed me yet. Oh can't turn around, We've come this far by faith.

1. Don't be discouraged when trouble's in your life He'll bear
your burdens and move all misery and strife. That's why we've
come this far buy faith.

2. Just the other day I heard someone say
He didn't believe in God's word;
But I can truly say that God's had made a way,
And He's never failed me yet.
That's why we've....

We sing this at my chruch once in a while I like it every much.

On November 14th of 2003, my 4 yr old daughter passed away. She had had respiratory problems and seizures her entire life, and on that morning when we went into her room, she had stopped breathing. The paramedics got her heart started and rushed her to the ER, but she only made it a few hours longer. We feel that God blessed us with those hours as all of her family who loved her were able to come and say their goodbyes. During the entire morning, the song that kept playing over and over in my wife's and my heads was "Jesus, What a Beautiful Name." When it looked like she was slipping away and wasn't going to make it, the Dr. let my wife hold her in a rocking chair. My wife sang Cori this song while she was entering God's Kingdom. It was quite a powerful moment. Later that night, we were again struck by God's awesome power and timing. We were watching a video of her birth. They let us play music in the birthing room, and this song was playing at the exact moment she came into the world. Needless to say, this song is very special to us.

Jesus, What A Beautiful Name

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Son of God, Son of Man
Lamb that was slain
Joy and peace, strength and hope
Grace that blows all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Truth revealed, my future sealed
Healed my pain
Love and freedom, life and warmth
Grace that blows all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

Jesus, what a beautiful name
Rescued my soul, my stronghold
Lifts me from shame
Forgiveness, security, power and love
Grace that blows all fear away
Jesus, what a beautiful name

[Jai]

One of my favorite songs.. "Around Me" by Jennifer Knapp:
If all the worlds were scattered and
I found my way to here
Then how could I love You
The way that I love You

Big sky and a silver moon, the
Apple of Your eye
How can I explain it?
How can I maintain this

My tenderness evolving
Your faithfulness revolving
Around me
Angels in their glory
Regaling of Your story
Around me
Around me

One big bang, an atom I?
O how'd I come to me
Whittled from a bone is
Harder to believe

Hope in things I cannot see, I
Know that You will come
Seasons quickly turning
Quickly You're returning

My tenderness evolving
Your faithfulness revolving
Around me
Angels in their glory
Regaling of Your story
Around me
Around me

Treat me with an alibi so
All my friends will wonder why I
Have immortal favor
The KING He gives me favor

That song is soooooo pretty, I love the "The Way I Am" CD
