Lord, I love You more today, than any other.
Lord, I love You more right now, than ever before.
Lord, You are so dear, how could my heart desire
Anything that’s less than You;
Lord, You are the One I must choose;
Lord, I love You.

Lord, I need You more today, than any other.
Lord, I need You more right now, than ever before.
Lord, You are so near, be everything to me,
I couldn’t live a day without You;
I’m totally dependent on You;
Lord, I need You.

Lord, I love You (Lord, I love You),
I’ll never let You go (won’t let You go).
Lord, I love You,
I want You to know,
Lord, I love You so.

Lord, I Love You More Today | with Ugo

Lord, In Thy Presence

To Realize and Participate (1 Cor. 2:9)

Romeo and Juliet for a day extended version,  lucky clover. Nardine sanderson 2024©️.wav

Recently (about a couple of months ago) I learnt a new song! What strikes me about the Bible as the word of God is that it isn't merely a book for us to know about God, but even more it is what we live on, and it is our very treasure. This hasn't always been my experience, but little by little, day by day I'm learning to muse upon the living word of God, words which are spirit and are life :)

Below are verses to refer to in relation to this song:

Job 23:12b I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my apportioned food.

Matthew 4:4 But He answered and said, It is written, "Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out through the mouth of God."

John 6:63b ... the words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.

John 6:51a I am the living bread which came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever;

--- Playable with 4 Chords (C-G-Am-F) ---

1. I have treasured Your word
More than my daily bread
I have treasured Your word
More than my daily bread.

2. Man shall not live by bread alone
But on every word that
Proceeds out through the mouth of God
Out through the mouth of God.

3. You word enlivens
Your word revives
Your words are spirit
Your words are life.

I am the living bread,
Which came down out of heaven,
If anyone,
If anyone eats of this bread
He shall live forever.

4. I've been enlivened
I've been revived
I have the Spirit
I have the life.

I Have Treasured Your Word

A birthday consecration! Lord, make this my prayer throughout the whole year.

1. Dearest Lord, I come;
This is now my pray’r,
Keep me open to You,
May I always love You.

Lord, I love You more today,
So much more than yesterday;
Lord, I need You, Lord, I love You.

2. Now that the choice is mine,
Lord, I still choose You;
’Though the paths be not marked,
I’m still trusting in You.

3. And if the way is hard,
If things don’t go my way,
Keep my heart soft to You,
Keep me open to You.

4. Dearest Lord, I pray,
Lead me everyday;
Don’t let things come between,
Keep my eyes fixed on You.

5. When many years have gone,
And many things have passed,
I will still be for You,
I will still say to You:

Dearest Lord, I Come

I love You, Lord, so I turn my heart
From everything to behold Your face.

I love You, Lord, and You know it's true—
I cannot live one hour, one short hour, without You.

I Love You, Lord

How lovely are Thy dwelling places;
My soul longs for the courts of the Lord.
My heart and my flesh,
They sing for joy to the living God;
You are my King and my God.

How Lovely Are Thy Dwelling Places

According to Revelation 1:14-18

               G                C                G            D         Em
Chorus: And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead
            C                                       D
And He placed His right hand on me
             C         G-C
Saying, Do not fear;
              D                  G
I am the First and the Last.


                                 Em-C                  G           D    C              G      -D
1) And His head and hair, were white as white wool, white as snow
             Em           C          D          G
And His eyes were, like a flame of fire.

2) And His feet shined bright, as having been fired, in a furnace,
And His voice was, the sound of many waters.

3) And the seven stars, were in His right hand, and out of His mouth,
Proceeded, a sharp two-edged sword.

4) And the Living One; and I became dead, and behold,
I am living! I am living fore’er.

5) And I have the keys, of death and of Hades, and behold,
Death was offset, and I destroyed the devil.

I Am The First And The Last

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)

Where’s the answer? There must be more for me.
Is this all to life—an empty vanity?
Day by day and year by year go by.
Am I just a man, a man just born to die?

 	Where’s the answer? Oh I’m so empty
        And plagued by this vanity.
        Deep inside me, My conscience tells me:
        I need another destiny.

I convinced my friends that everything’s alright,
That my life and future and everything’s so bright.
But a sense inside me, my friends, I can’t deny,
Warning deep inside me that I was living a lie.

The world and its glitter left me anxious, dark, and bitter,
Always yearning, my friends, is there something better?
And religion, my friends, is just a Sunday game—
Dead teachings and doctrines will leave you just the same.

Oh God, where are You? I need You desperately!
Oh God, who are You? Why don’t You answer me?
The heavens declare You and the earth shows Your beauty.
But I’m a man. Oh God, I’m so empty!

 	Lord, have mercy! I’m crying for You!
        Please hear! Are you really true?
        I’m dark and lonely. You’re far, far from me.
        Oh Lord, I need You desperately!

One day a friend told me that Jesus is the Lord.
To my great surprise, it’s written in the Word.
They asked me to believe You. Your name I once blasphemed.
Dear Lord, You saved me just by calling on Your name.

        Oh, Lord Jesus, dear Son, so glorious,
        I’m cleansed and You entered into me.
        Oh, Lord Jesus, Your name most precious! 
        Your Person, dear Lord, I now possess.

Where's The Answer?

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 - SP, AR, TS

What made You, Lord, to die for me?
Why would You die for me, Your enemy?
You took my place to hang on a tree,
To be a curse, a curse for me.

(Chorus 1)
What made You die for me?
I was Your enemy.
Lord, You became a curse for me.
Oh, what a mystery!
My God, You died for me!
You died for me, Your enemy.

I never thought that You would be
So full of love and tender mercy.
How could You love a person like me?
You loved me, dear Jesus, Your enemy.

You loved me, Lord, so very long;
And with a love enduring and strong.
Although I mocked and cursed You so long,
You waited and prayed for me all along.

I was a man who was just sin,
Which issued in a life full of sins.
My heart toward You was in rebellion,
But, Lord, You touched me with Your compassion.

(Chorus 2)
Your love has conquered me,
Even Your enemy.
In love, dear Lord, You came to me.
Nothing could change me
But love and mercy.
Your love, dear Lord, has conquered me.

One little turn and You were there,
Waiting for me with Your loving care.
How could I still remain Your enemy?
Your love, dear Jesus, disarmed me.

What Made You, Lord, to Die For Me

G, D, C ,G
1
Keep my heart always burning
With the best love to love you
Keep my eyes pure and simple
With a view to see only You

Em, Bm, C, D
Loving You, surely there’s no better way
Drinking You, saturate me thoroughly, today.

Chorus: G, D, Em, C
How long,
How very long You’ve waited patiently for me
How long, 
How very long You’ve waited for Your bride to be
How long…

2 
Keep my lips so quick to anger
Full of grace to speak forth You
Keep my ears firmly planted
In my spirit to hear You
By Your blood, cleanse me from my every sin
By Your word, sanctify me more and more, within.

3
Set my hands in constant labor
On the land to bring forth You
Set my feet swift and able 
Going forth to bring good news
On the cross, You have won the victory
On the throne, You're interceding every day for me

Keep My Heart Always Burning (How Long)

1. Whence cometh all this affliction?
Should envy and hatred reign?
What happened to love of brethren?
Instead what prevails is pain.
When strife and contention would shake my faith,
I turn to His words, His promise made
And thus I'm reminded:

(Chorus)
I have a heav'nly dream of sheaves of wheat,
Of men so full of life for all to feed;
I 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.

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.

Stars and Sheaves
