God’s only goal in time,
Dispensing life to us,
Is what this heart of mine
Can absolutely trust;
For God Himself in Christ
The flesh in time became,
Now God can be my life
Each time I call His name.
2
God’s purpose and His plan
Is more of Christ dispensed;
My spirit is the key,
Where life and peace are sensed;
So I will exercise
My spirit every day,
And overcome the world;
Be saved from Satan’s sway.

 	Jesus! Call His name today!
Jesus! Call Him day by day!
Jesus! In His name we pray!
God’s life dispensed,
Now I’m convinced,
Lord, You’re God’s goal and way!

3
God’s only goal in time
Is to pour out His Son,
His Spirit joined to mine,
Intrinsic’lly made one;
And fanned into a flame,
Would spread His fire, divine
Into my inward parts,
This four-part heart of mine.
4
Oh, let God’s goal be mine,
To gain Christ while I live,
Consumed by holy fire,
My every moment give;
And now I am assured
The One to whom I pray
Patrols and guards my heart
Unto that coming day.

 	Jesus! Call His name today!
Jesus! Call Him day by day!
Jesus! In His name we pray!
God’s life dispensed,
Now I’m convinced,
Lord, You’re God’s goal and way!

God's Only Goal In Time

1. In the ebb and flow of life 
So much lies beyond my power
I’m left-desperate and lost
Just surviving hour by hour
But the sweet reminders come 
that my Lord is far above
all my fears; and he is waiting for me now

	Today I choose to cling to Him
	The One who loves Me
	Today I choose to praise my Lord
	whose Blood’s released Me 
	Not running from the past, with all its pain
	Not running toward the future, with its 
	gains
	Today I choose to love and praise my Lord!

2. In my fellowship with Him
How He shines on what’s within
I’m a-failure with no end
Yet the blood fails not to cleanse
Satan tries make me doubt
Paralyze my growth in life
Yet his schemes have no success on me because

3. Though the world still calls my name
and my love for it remains
The Lord-draws me near to Him
Gently touching what I grip
Though I fail, He never will
He is faithful and I still
Put my trust in Him to carry me today

Today I choose to cling WST 24’

原文中文：我往哪裡去躲避你的靈
詞/曲：柯菲比

Whither shall I go from Thy Spirit, Lord?
Or where shall I flee from Thy presence, Lord?
If I rise to heaven, lo, Thou art there.
If I lie in Sheol’s depths, Thou art also there.
If I should take dawn’s wings, to dwell at sea’s remotest bound’ries,
E’en there Thy hand shall lead me still, Thy hand shall lead me;
Thy right hand shall take hold of me; it shall take hold of me;
Lord, Thou art everywhere.
(Repeat)
Lord, Thou art always there.

Niu Memorial Cruise - July 16th

I Want to Fully Follow Jehovah (with Niu Cuzs)

ruminations from the first three weeks of fourth term, written in about 30 minutes on a Sunday night and recorded in the kitchen of 2114

Jehovah has set His affection on you,
choosing you before the world began
to be holy like Him, without blemish, in love––
one with Him, the same as Him, His masterpiece.
God fell in love with you and me,
in our bridal days, our wandering,
still betrothed to Thee.

who are you, Lord? who are you to me?
here I am, just as I am; I look away.
what shall I do? what’s your will for me?
take my heart and let it be held by you completely.
to give you my future without reserve,
I’m captivated, charmed by Thee;
your will be done through me.

“rise up, My love, and come away;
there’s no need to stay out in the rain.
the rain is gone, the winter past.
come to Me, come and see, and you shall be
My personal treasure, My dwelling place.
how beautiful! I have loved you 
with everything I am.”

Lord, make me willing to come away––
to follow you, my life for you, what a “waste.”
bring me to ashes, let nought remain.
daily change my inward being until I see
you come in that day, coming as a thief,
to be occupied and lost in you,
precious in your eyes.

This is my acoustic guitar backing to the fabulous vocals of Roberta Flack from 1971. Great laid back BBQ or dinner party music to impress. People will ask you "Who is that"... Please like the song and click "follow me" for the latest song releases.

Isaiah 12:5 - Sing psalms to Jehovah, for He has done something majestic! Let it be made known in all the earth!


Lord You Are Beloved

Lyrics:
Deep within God's heart, a desire made known.
"It is not good for man to be alone
I will make him a helper as his counterpart."
To have a bride was His need and heart.

So God became a lowly man
Lived a life according to the Father's will
Wholly one with His heart and plan
Obedient to the Cross, His plan fulfilled

What life-releasing death!
Producing His Bride, the Church
What life-imparting resurrection!
A beautiful man in life and nature.

Christ loved the church
And gave Himself up for her
A love surpassing comprehend
Such mercy and grace to apprehend
With all of our hearts,
We love You, Lord Jesus.

Jehovah has set His affection on you / who are you, Lord? (original)
