Psalm 139:23-24

Erforsch' mich, Gott, und erkenne mein Herz
Prüf' mich und erkenn' meine Gedanken
und sieh', ob ein Weg der Mühsal bei mir ist
und leite mich, und leite mich,
und leite mich auf dem ewigen Weg
Herr, Du hast mich erforscht 
Herr, Du hast mich erkannt
Du kennst mein Sitzen
Du kennst mein Aufsteh'n
Du verstehst mein Trachten von fern
Mit allen meinen Wegen bist du vertraut
Mit allen meinen Wegen bist du vertraut

Psalm 139:23-24 - Erforsch' mich, Gott

Draw Me, Dear Lord

When I call on You Lord
It seems nothing has changed
But deep within a great transfer was made
From my self to my spirit
From old to new 
Thus the whole day I'm turned to You
A thousand times a day
A thousand times I'll pray 
From morning to evening
I won't stop from calling 
One call on Your name 
You transform my being
By then I found out that I will never ever be the same.

A Thousand Times - JJ&J

I was pondering, why I felt this way
There’s an inner void, it just won’t go away
And no matter what I do, I can’t be satisfied
Cause nothing can quench the thirst I felt inside.

Whatever I did, whatever I tried,
I just felt so dissatisfied
And I just kept wondering why, my life’s so dry
Then as I watched, the days go by
All I could do is to grieve and sigh
Deep within me, I felt so sad
I want to cry.

But then one day, I started to touch
The living fount, and I loved it so much
Now I’m drinking, the water of life
All my thirst are quench, and I’m saved from strife.
I would never ever want to leave
The source of this flow
I’ll forever stay, and never will go.

All of the world, with all of its pride
Had left me so empty inside
I thought I knew, I had no clue,
They were untrue
All were in vain, nothing to gain,
Deep within me, I felt the pain
Now I do see, nothing will last ‘till eternity.

But then one day, I started to touch
The living fount, and I loved it so much
Now I’m drinking, the water of life
All my thirst are quench, and I’m saved from strife.
I would never ever want to leave
The source of this flow
I’ll forever stay, and never will go.

Christ’s the Spirit now, Who lives right in me
And He gives life abundantly
God will be pleased, when He increase
And I decrease
He’s dispensing, and He’s spreading
To every part of my being
I’m rejoicing, in His life now, 
I am growing.

O Lord, I pray, sanctify me all day
Fixed my eyes on You, You alone I’ll pursue
Keep me coming
To Your throne always
By Your Spirit live, through all of my days.
I would never ever want to leave
The source of this flow
I’ll forever stay, and never will go.

A MEASURE OF LIFE (D major, 4/4, 90bpm)

Music and lyrics by Matthew David Fritz

    D    -          A/C#             Gsus2   - Gsus4 Em D
If true heart perfection is simply a re - flec - tion
Em                   -          D
Of a fully following heart
A C#dim A
Why would you leave the love you held from the start?
D A/C# Gsus2 Gsus4 Em D
If love’s vain attraction would spark a chain re - ac - tion
Em D
Turning your heart far away
Em F#m A
Could God’s own appearing infuse you with fearing you’d stray?
Gsus2 Em D C#dim D
Could I wield all the wisdom in the world
A D
Would it ever compare to a pearl of worth
Gsus2 Em D
That life plus suffering produced?
Em Gsus2 G Gsus2
So capability follows
D C#dim D
If gifts from above only lead to strife
Aadd9 D
Could they ever replace a measure of life?
Gsus2 Em D
The life a dove can supply
Em C#dim D
Issues from a measure of life
If clinging forbidden never could be hidden
From the very God that you trust
How could you yield to such indulgence in lust?
Does wisdom really matter when kingdoms fall and shatter?
Casting dominion aside
Deadly division instead of your vision abides

Intro: Gm C F
Bb                                       Edim
It was a night dream where God appeared
            Gm                          F
Such a sight seemed to be so sincere
Gm                  C                                 F  F-Dm
Ask and I will give you whatever you want

With Your great love to my father shown
How You gave a son to sit upon his throne
In his place, though I'm a little child

     Gm       Edim F                      Bb
Oh, I don't know how to come or go
     Gm       Edim   F                     Bb 
O Lord, impart an understanding heart

Now the bitter foes stood before the throne
Pleading interpose and make your wisdom known
Which of us is the mother of this child?

With the smiting sword emerging to divide
How she implored with a compassionate cry
Oh, my Lord, give the child so that he may live

Oh, I don't know how to come or go
O Lord, impart an understanding heart

		Dm            C                         F
		If I ask for riches You would give them
		Dm           C                      F
		If I ask to lengthen all my years
		Gm                          F       Edim                        Dm
		Nothing could compare to what You would prepare 
		C                                                      C7
		For the ones who love You without fear

Oh, I don't know how to come or go
O Lord, impart an understanding heart

     Gm       Edim  F                      Gm
Oh, I don't know how to come or go
     Gm     Edim    F                      Bb 
O Lord, impart an understanding heart

Gm C  Edim C F

An Understanding Heart

𝘼𝙣 𝙐𝙣𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙣𝙙𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩

Psalm 139:23

Search me, O God and know what's in my heart
Try me and know my anxious thoughts
And see if there is some harmful way in me
And lead me on the eternal way

Chorus:
I do repent Lord for loving other things
And I return Lord to simply drink of You
All idols in my heart, remove them all away
Occupy every room in my heart

Jeremiah 2:13

For my people have committed two evils
They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters
And have hewn out for themselves cisterns
Broken cisterns, which hold no water

Chorus:
Lord, please forgive us for turning to some other source
All other things just cannot satisfy
Lord, we come to You and simply drink of You
Lord, we take You as the water of life.
