And me, even me. Praise the Lord for His grace upon grace.

I Have An Excuse To Praise

Matt. 13:45-46, Eph. 5:25

    G                           Em
The kingdom of the heavens is a merchant
C                            D
Seeking finest pearls in the world
  G                                 Em
A single pearl He found of greatest value.
   C                D
He sold His all and bought it.

Em     D         G
Christ loved the church
C                     D
He paid the price for her.
   Em        D      G
He knows her all-surpassing worth
    C             D
And I too give my all
            G
To gain His pearl

2. A pearl is something transformed in death waters,
Not something created by God.
The church is nothing natural, but she’s processed
Through death and resurrection.

3. Once just a little rock or grain of sand, we
Wounded Christ who died on the cross.
Our sinner-loving Savior, He embraced us—
Secreted life around us.

4. Although we wound the Savior, never leave Him.
In His wound remain, make your home.
He’ll keep dispensing resurrection into us,
Transform us to His treasure.

To Gain His Pearl

Ezekiel 36:26-27
26 I will also give you a new heart, and a new spirit I will put within you; and I will take away the heart of stone out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh.
27 And I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and My ordinances you shall keep and do.

Ezekiel 36:26-27

Based on John 21, Mark 16:7, and the book, And Peter, by Watchman Nee.

Lyrics:
O Lord, how I have fallen because of my great sin
You may have forsaken me but here I am again
Standing on the shoreline right where I did begin
Oh where do I begin again

Casting nets on deep blue seas, my purpose yet unknown
Then light from the heavens came and turned my name to stone
But with all my confidence, to failure I was prone
Oh how could I atone?

Lord, You know; You know I love you though I’m fallen
Lord, You know; when I denied you how my heart had me deceived
Lord, You know; for Your forgiveness now my heart to you is calling
But I know that You still loved me when You called to Your disciples and me
Oh and me
Oh, oh and me

If loving me He suffered, and to the cross was nailed
Would He cease from loving me just because I failed?
In my utter vanquishment, His heart’s love He unveiled
His love for me prevailed

Lord, You know; You know I love you though I’m fallen
Lord, You know; when I denied you how my heart had me deceived
Lord, You know; for Your forgiveness now my heart to you is calling
But I know that You still loved me when You called to Your disciples and me
Oh and me
And me

And Peter

For thanking God has set us free!

My Solomon (cover) (w/ Xuefei)

This song is a compilation of some personal prayers and enjoyments from the Bible and the Ministry during my first term in the Training. Praise Him as the One who is able :)

"For if we, being enemies, were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more we will be saved in His life, having been reconciled" - Romans 5:10


Lyrics:
Lord, much more do I need
Your full salvation worked out in me
All I have is today
So for Your purpose, Lord have Your way 
Fan my spirit into flame
Lord, don’t let me stay the same.

Lord, be my Amen, 
subdue my will, don’t let me win.
Though my feelings deceive,
I stand by faith, Your grace I receive.
Lord, take captive my every thought
Make your home in all of my heart

Strengthen my trust in You
That all things work together for good,
Not according to me,
But so that You’d be wrought in my being.
Though sometimes I don’t understand
Lord, I trust in Your loving hands.

Deepen my love for you,
Make me a lily, simple and pure.
Other things in my heart
Empty, unload me, Your love impart. 
Draw my eyes, to see only You 
Dear Lord Jesus, how I love You.

Lift my eyes up to see
All that You do is not just for me.
It’s the Church, as Your bride,
who satisfies Your heart’s desire.
Of your Body, grant me Your view.
Draw me, we will run after You

Thank You, for who You are
All that we can’t be, Lord be our All.
Praise You Lord as the One
Who over all things is on the throne. 
By Your mercy, we’re justified
But much more, save us in Your life. 
Lord much more, save us in Your life.

Lord, Much More

from [ Shout Hosanna ] / by [ Ray, Amy Huff ]

1)
Through God's word, my hope at His returning
Is that all my being be redeemed;
Yet in times of grief and tribulation,
Doubt and fear arise, no hope is seen.
In those hours, when prayer cannot be uttered,
Only groaning from my breast is heard.
Then the Spirit, in like manner, helps me,
Praying in my weakness unto God.

2)
Lord, my prayer is not for deeper suffering,
But that from each trial I'd be free.
Let the cup of bitterness be taken;
Yet, Thy will, not mine, dear Lord, must be.
Even now, though trials sore surround me,
Still within my heart there is a peace,
For the love of God outpoured within me
Floods my heart and bids my doubting cease.

3)
Blest assurance! God has fully ordered
Every matter by His sovereign hand;
Every person (though we see so dimly),
Every thing's according to His plan.
Every trial is but the Father's answer
To the groaning of the Spirit's prayer;
May He gain in every tribulation,
Until we Christ's glory fully share.

4)
How could God from all His dealings spare us,
After He spared not His only Son?
Could the Potter's hand upon the vessel
Ever leave the shaping work undone?
For the center of God's heart's desire
Is that many brethren we will be
Unto Christ, His precious First-begotten,
And to Him, conformed we'll fully be.

5)
Heirs of God! Joint-heirs with our Lord Jesus!
What a hope of glory this for us!
Though the suff'rings presently seem grievous,
Greater far the glory then for us!
Yea, in all these things we more than conquer,
Through the One whose love has us possessed;
Soon the day for which waits all creation,
When the sons of God are manifest!

( Source: Romans 8:17~39 )

Through God's Word

A man's steps are ordered by Jehovah;
How then can a man understand his own way?
How then can a man understand his own way?

The spirit of man is the lamp of Jehovah, 
Searching all the innermost parts of the inner being.

For who among men knows the things, 
Who knows the things of men, except the spirit of man,
The spirit of man which is within him?

A Man's Steps are Ordered by Jehovah (Prov. 20:24, 27; 1 Cor. 2:11a)
