Gathered in Thy Name Lord Jesus

07 I Have Set Before You Life And Death

Dearest Lord, You've Called us Here

何等朋友我主耶穌/What a Friend We Have in Jesus 詩歌571

This came out of an exam in which we had to memorise a ton of verses, and so to help memorise these verses, it helped to have a tune to go along with them. Of the many not-so-great tunes that came out, this one remained, long after the exam was over. 

...I did okay on the exam.

1 John 1:5-7
C
And this is the message which 
C
We have heard from Him 
        Dm7
And announce to you, 
G7                                                                             C
That God is light and in Him is no darkness at all. 
C
If we say that we 
C
Have fellowship with Him 
        Dm7
And yet walk in the darkness, 
G7                                                       C
We lie and are not practicing the truth; 
F               G                    C              Am             
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light,
F               G                         C         Am 
We have fellowship with one another, 
F                             G               C
And the blood of Jesus His Son 
                Am                     F                         G
Cleanses us from every sin, from every sin.
Ending:                 Am                     F                         G                           C
               Cleanses us from every sin, from every sin, from every sin.

1. Lord, I just love You,
In my heart I'm treasuring Your word.
Take my veils away
To see Your word's preciousness

Lord, I'm open to You,
Clear my sky,
Be my lamp and guide, 
Draw me closer to Your love and life.

Sanctifies and purifies my soul.
Here, I would remain
In the joy of your word

One thing I desire of You dear Lord, that's for sure.. is that I would love just You dear Lord, so much more... MORE AND MORE AND MORE!!!

So Much More

Lord Keep My Heart, sung by Howard Higashi

O How Deep and How Far Reaching

Waters To Swim In

1	Since long ago at Bethany we parted,
 	Within my heart there is a ceaseless void;
 	How can I take my harp down from the willow?
 	How can my songs without Thee be enjoyed?
 	And when at night I’m keeping lonely vigil-
 	Grown numb alike to sorrow and to cheer-
 	Then I recall the promise of Thy coming,
 	But sigh: O Lord, why, why Thou dost not yet appear?
2	Thy manger wakes the thought: I too am homeless;
 	Thy cross strips earthly pleasures from my soul;
 	Thy coming bids me seek a better country,
 	For Thou Thyself art now my final goal.
 	Since Thou art gone my joy has lost its flavor,
 	My song the sweetness I would fain convey.
 	Since Thou art gone the sense of void o’erwhelms me.
 	Oh, how I long that Thou wilt come and not delay.
3	Though even now I know Thy loving presence,
 	Yet in my heart there’s still a sense of lack.
 	Enlightening and tenderest sustaining
 	Can no more satisfy: I want Thee back.
 	Despite Thy peace within, I still feel lonely;
 	Despite Thy joy there still remains a sigh;
 	When I feel most content, the silent yearning
 	To see Thee face to face becomes an uttered cry.
4	What exile cannot but desire his homeland
 	And long his people once again to greet?
 	What soul on alien soil forgets his kindred?
 	What parted lovers never yearn to meet?
 	O Lord, how can these earthly loves and pleasures
 	With all the joy of Thy return compare?
 	Then, if I cannot here behold Thy countenance,
 	What can I do but sigh till Thou, my Lord, appear?
5	Could’st Thou, O Lord, forget Thy word of promise
 	Soon to return and take me unto Thee?
 	Yet day by day and year by year I’ve waited
 	And still I wait, and no return I see!
 	Remember, Lord, the years I have been waiting
 	While Thy dear footsteps linger far away.
 	How long? How long? Oh! must I wait still longer
 	Till Thou shalt come again in glorious array?
6	From generation unto generation
 	Thy saints have come and gone, but have not seen
 	Thy glorious promise pass into fulfilment.
 	How long, how very long the time has been!
 	Why cannot we, dear Lord, discern Thy footsteps?
 	Why are the heavens still so closely sealed?
 	Oh! must our waiting be prolonged still further
 	Before Thou in Thy matchless splendor art revealed?
7	Lord, I recall the many years I’ve waited
 	For Thy return-yet, Lord, not I alone,
 	But Thy dear saints through many generations-
 	Beseeching Thee to come back for Thine own.
 	To countless tears and countless fervent pleadings,
 	By Thine appearing haste to make reply.
 	Oh, may Thou come, the echo of the ages,
 	Come, come and answer now this mighty corp’rate cry!

Crossroads Of Our Lives / Original (Will's Song)

written summer 2018
chords: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Mxv12CXdj3cIrA4jSKUipXuh4FGp8aec7a9qR_jaBmc/edit?usp=sharing

1. Lord, it seems
That I fail and fail again.
I see Your face,
But then the veils return again.
Emotion’s stirred, but there’s no change in me.
I’m living in my soul; I have to learn
A little more, each day, O Lord, to turn.

2. Lord, I know
That I’ve truly seen You, but
The vision fades;
I look away to other things.
Remind me, Lord, reveal Yourself to me,
That from my idols I would be set free.
A little more, each day, I want to see.

3. Lord, my mind
Is occupied with many things--
This thorny age,
With all of its anxieties.
My faith is weak; I’m caught up in my cares.
I need to learn to tell it all to You!
A little more, each day, my mind renew.

4. Lord, my will
Is resistant to Your touch.
Disarm me, Lord;
Don’t let me win against Your grace.
I turn my eyes and see Your patient love--
What can I do but stop and come to You?
A little more, each day, my will subdue.

5. Lord, I pray,
Make me desperate for You.
Keep drawing me
And training me to hear Your voice.
Lord, even though my progress is so slow,
You’re by my side; You will not let me go.
A little more, each day, I’d love You so.
A little more, each day, and I will grow.

A Little More, Each Day (Original)

Not an NACT song (will get around to doing that soon!), but a new song anyway. :D

Composed by J.L.
Key: D
Lyrics:
1
     D                   A         A7             D 
He saw a great crowd, following Him,
             G                          D                   A                              A7
He was moved with compassion and healed and taught them 
        D                      A              A7           D
And when evening fell, they said unto Him,
G                   D                 A                     D  
Send them away to buy food for themselves
G                       D                          A                  Bm
Five thousand men, apart from women and children!
G                                A  
How would we feed them?    
       A7
But Jesus said, 

  G    D                A                     Bm
"You give them something to eat!"    
      G     D              A                        Bm
For you have five loaves and two fish    
      G           D                   A               A#m-Bm
No need to endeavor to seek your own way! 
             G                D                  A            D    
We can all eat and be filled by Jesus today!    


2
He made them recline, in group 'flower beds'
Then He looked up to heaven and blessed and broke bread,
Gave to the disciples to give to the crowds
When they had eaten, leftovers abound!
Five thousand men, apart from women and children!
Yet twelve baskets overflowed
When Jesus said,

"You give them something to eat!"
For you have five loaves and two fish
We're reclined and blessed, so freely partake!
We can all eat and be filled with surplus today! 


3
No struggling in vain to try to do good
We can follow the Lord just by spiritual food
So bring what you have to give to the Lord
That it may become great blessings for more
O Never believe our bread will not be sufficient!
The Lord will supply us all,
For Jesus said,

"You give them something to eat!"
For you all have something to give
We'll never exhaust this unlimited Christ!
We can all eat and be filled and be satisfied!

He Saw A Great Crowd (Feeding the Five Thousand)

Key: F (Capo 3 - D)
Lyrics:
          D                                    E            
1    Behold, the fig tree puts forth its leaves
              G                                 A-A7
And we know the summer is near
     D                                      E
Its branches tender, when you see these,
                 G              A                D
Then the Kingdom has drawn near!
      G                    A      D
Be watchful and be ready!
        A                     A7
The day is almost here!

(Chorus)
D                     A
Loving His appearing,
      A#       Bm
Earnestly waiting
        F#m                     G
And calling for His return,
             D
We are those who give heed 
                   Em             A
To the prophetic word
                D
Until the day dawns.
               F#                                     Bm
'Though we know not the day or hour
             F#m                  G
But on You we set our heart.
             D
We are watching;
               Em               A
Make us ready, Lord,
                A7        D
For your second coming!'

2    Take heed to yourselves, be not weighed down
By anxieties of life
Besaeech that you escape these things
And be raptured to His side
Be watchful and be ready!
Escape the hour of trial!

3    Be prudent virgins with your own soul
And with oil your vessels fill.
"Behold, the bridegroom!" -- when midnight comes,
Will your lamps be shining still?
Be watchful and be ready!
Go forth to meet with Him!

4    Be faithful slaves set o'er His house
Give them food in proper time
When Jesus comes, what will He find?
Were your gifts well exercised?
Be watchful and be ready!
Obatain the master's prize!

Loving His Appearing - CT, AA, AA, JL

Just a short one-take, one-track cover of a song I learned and enjoyed at the NACT 2019 singing meeting. ^_^ Planning to post a few more new songs from the college training soon!

Lyrics:
   C                                              Am
1. Don't you know? Don't you know?
            F                 C
Jesus Christ is in you.
                             Am
He is near, He is here--
          G
He is in you!
            C                      Am
He's within, speak to Him,
                 F                    C 
Pour out your love on Him.
          F                        G                  C-C7
He is waiting for you to speak to Him.

Chorus: 
                      F               G            C
Tell Him you love Him! Oh, just love Him!
                                   Am            D7-G 
He is this wonderful Person in you!
                C                    C7
Don't forget, don't forget,
                 F          G-C
That you are not alone,
                    F
And then through you,
             G                    C        F-C
His life will be made known.

2. Don't forget, don't forget,
That the Lord is in you.
He's not far like the stars,
No, He's in you.
If you fall, just recall:
There's a Person in you,
Then with His strength you will rise up anew.

Don't Forget, Don't Forget (One-Take Cover)

w/ SS

Before the throne of God above 
I have a strong and perfect plea 
A great High Priest whose name is love 
Who ever lives and pleads for me 
My name is graven on His hands 
My name is written on His heart 
I know that while in heav'n He stands 
No tongue can bid me thence depart 
No tongue can bid me thence depart

When Satan tempts me to despair 
And tells me of the guilt within 
Upward I look and see Him there 
Who made an end of all my sin 
Because the sinless Savior died 
My sinful soul is counted free 
For God the Just is satisfied 
To look on Him and pardon me 
To look on Him and pardon me

Behold Him there, the risen Lamb 
My perfect, spotless Righteousness 
The great unchangeable I AM 
The King of glory and of grace 
One with Himself, I cannot die 
My soul is purchased by His blood 
My life is hid with Christ on high 
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God

O How Deep and How Far Reaching
