1
O Jesus Lord, Thou fairest of the fair—
None in heav’n nor on the earth can e’er compare.
Better than wine is Thy sweet love to me,
How could I still seek what’s less than Thee?
All the earthly pleasures could not fill my soul,
Failed to satisfy the longing to be whole.
These all shall pass,
Wither, and fade, and flee,
But, You’re mine
Eternally.

2
Lord, deep within, I’ve still so many things
Hidden in the chambers of my inner being
I hear Thy call—Thy voice, Thy knock—a song.
Lord, come in; hast Thou been kept too long?
Search my heart! There’s nothing I desire to keep.
All is Thine! Do then what Thou, Thy heart, doth please.
But in return
For what Thou take from me,
Fill me Lord,
Eternally.

3
Draw me, Beloved into Thy presence dear,
I would kiss Thy feet and wash them with my tears.
My love I pour, my life I waste on Thee;
Seize this precious opportunity!
I gave all, and yet the gain was so much more:
Thine own person in exchange for love outpoured.
’Tis ne’er a loss
To lose myself to Thee,
My Beloved,
Eternally.

My Beloved, Eternally

Days grew dark Oh God
            		Em
Cords of Sheol surrounded me
        Dm			G
The snares of death came forth
		C
Destruction had assailed on me
          Am
And in my deep distress
	C
I called upon His name
       Dm		        G-G7	
He heard my voice, descended down
	            C
And saved me by His hand

Am	        C
I will call on You
Fm7		      C	
For You will answer me
Dm		G-G7
God hears me, speak to Thee
	       C
My refuges’ in Your love

God is my retreat
I’m the pupil of His eye
My crag, my rock, my shield
My strength is God in Him I lie
The shadow of His wings
Is now the place I hide
His presence here, my comfort here
All by one simple word

God I know one thing
You’re the song within my heart
You are a boundless stream
You flow in me to my delight
Oh just fill me now
Satisfactions’ in Your life
I want to stay, here with You
Salvations in Your name


I will call on You (original)

Jude 1:20-21,24-25

Phil. 4:11-12

He Split Rocks In The Wilderness

Simply Loving Everyday

1. Lord, I can’t be satisfied
With anything but You.
Take me deeper, take me higher,
In my consecration.
From shallow, broken promises,
From my hesitation.

I want the real thing, Lord.
I want the real thing.

2. Lord, come now, my morning light
That I might start again.
Day is dawning, night is fading
And it’s constellation
Of fears and failures shall retreat
In the presence of this heat.

O great consuming light!
Devour all my night.

3. Lord, I long for higher ground,
To live above the world.
Freed from all the earthly fetters,
I need elevation.
There must be something more, I know,
Someplace higher to explore.

O raise me up to You!
No more an earthly view.

4. Lord, go deeper in my being
And set Your anchors there.
Take root downward, bear fruit upward,
Reach your destination
Till all Your life is flowing through
And I’m a branch expressing You.

“As deep calls unto deep”
This is what I seek.

But You, Beloved

Consecration Song

It's been a while! I'll be posting a few more recordings made before and during the quarantine soon!

Composed by J.L.

Key: F# Major (Capo 4 - D)
                  D                            A
1. Whence cometh all this affliction?   
             G                           A
Should envy and hatred reign?    
          D                                     A
What happened to love of brethren?   
    G                                   A
Instead what prevails is pain.   
           G                                              A
When strife and contention would shake my faith, 
D                   A                Bm
I turn to His words, His promise made
        Em   G        A
And thus I'm reminded: 

(Chorus)
                              D                                 A
I have a heav'nly dream of sheaves of wheat,
                              G                   A
Of men so full of life for all to feed;
                   Bm
I dream of sun, moon, and stars
             F#m
Shining bright in the dark. 
                  G
So when I see you and me,
                   A                                 D
I know our destiny as stars and sheaves.

2. We longed for a home together,
In blessed commune with God. 
Yet now while enslaved and fallen,
All striving just ends in nought.
Imprisoned so long, no end in sight;
That final abode my sole delight.
Someday, we shall see it!

3. Oh dreamer of God, don't falter
Though challenges life may bring,
Though none may believe that vision
That one day we'll reign as kings.
Have faith in His plan though far it may seem.
O never lose heart! Still speak God's dream!
Believe! Be encouraged! 

(Chorus 2)
For we have a heav'nly dream of sheaves of wheat,
Of men so full of life for all to feed;
We dream of sun, moon, and stars
Shining bright in the dark. 
So when I see you and me,
I know our destiny as stars and sheaves.

... I dream of stars and sheaves.

I will call on You (original)
