How to Be for God (R.K.)

Based on 1 Samuel 16-17, and Life-study of 1 & 2 Samuel, by Witness Lee, Message 12
Music and lyrics by Matthew David Fritz

Go and anoint for Me
My chosen king to succeed
If Saul would hear then death he’ll dole
Don’t ever fear, he can’t kill your soul

So when it comes to pass, know that the first shall be last
Trust in my sovereignty divine
Through you I’ll choose my king, test him through suffering
Until his heart is after mine

And from the very start, I was looking outwardly
At appearance, yet apparently
I’d find, sovereignly You have no part
In how man sees, for God looks on the heart

There on the cross remain
Suffering loss is counted as gain
Only that soul the cross would break 
Refreshing music can make

And if they mock and despise, look at them dead in the eyes
Couldn’t the great fall to the least?
Though some may dare and defy, exchanging the truth for the lie
Trust in the Lord and be at peace

And from the very start, I was looking outwardly
At appearance, so apparently
I’d find, You could never have a part
In how man sees, for God looks on the heart

And from the very start, I was looking outwardly
At appearance, though I could not see
Oh I came to know You had no part
In how man sees, for God looks on the heart

God Looks on the Heart

Draw Me, Dear Lord

Based on Psalm 2:8; 8:3-4; and 16:4-6
Music and lyrics by Matthew David Fritz

Eb          Fm   Gm    Ab     Bb
     Ask of Me       And I will give
Eb      Fm   Gm               Ab   Bb
     the nations   as Your inheritance
Eb            Fm   Gm            Ab      Bb
   And the limits, the limits of the earth 
Eb      Fm   Gm  Ab   Bb
    as Your possession.

When I see …  the works of Your fingers
The moon and stars, which You’ve ordained,
What is mortal man, that You remember him,
Through Your visitation?

Ddim               Bb                    Eb
They bartered for some other god
Ddim              Bb  
Their portion only sorrows; 
Cm   G    Ab         Bb Bb7
You maintain my lot

Eb                    Bb              Fm          Ab            Ddim
The measuring lines have fallen on pleasant places
Eb            Bb              Fm            Ab         Ddim
Earth's confines, my portion, my cup, His graces
Eb      Bb        Fm           Ab Ddim
Now I find; indeed the inheritance is
Eb     Bb     Fm7 Bb
Beautiful to me
Could I devise the path my life has taken
	My choices and my destiny
I would leave it all in my Father’s hand
	For it all is so beautiful to me

	No idol names will I take up
Jehovah is the only
portion of my cup
		Chorus
Eb     Bb      Fm  Bb  Eb      Bb    Fm Ddim
beautiful to me,          beautiful to me

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

Music and lyrics by Matthew David Fritz

Vanity, says the preacher
I set my heart to be a seeker
Liquid myrrh drips from my fingers
Sweetly killing my urge to linger
 
Living in this world, fully aware
We’re passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler’s snare
Passing through this vanity fair
 
In my heart I said, in measure
Taste enjoyment, test out pleasure
All the works my hands could manage
Under the sun gave no advantage
 
Living in this world, fully aware
We’re passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler’s snare
Passing through this vanity fair
 
Fleeing this world’s vanity
We’re learning life’s reality
Pressed into His mold
Real life we behold
 
Living in this world, fully aware
We’re passing through a vanity fair
Bold we escape the fowler’s snare
Passing through this vanity fair
Passing through this vanity fair

Vanity Fair

𝙑𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙁𝙖𝙞𝙧

As the sov'reign One, we adore Thee
For Thy ways are much higher than our ways
In our mingled spirit, Thy desire is made known
From all ages it's veiled but now it's shown.

Chorus :
Open up our eyes to see the divine history
For Thy economy to be fulfilled in us in our lifetime
Restore to us the years we've wasted in the human history
May all our days be numbered, all sublime.

As poor foolish ones, we forsook Thee
With earthly loves we filled our empty shells
We're lost in our own world, no desire left for Thee
Until Thou came and changed our destiny.

As the coming Lord we revere Thee
Fixate our heart on nothing else but Thee
Purge and purify ud, Thy recovery, today
Make us those whom Thou wilt come back for aye.
