Ambivalence

1. Just one touch as He moves along,
Pushed and pressed by the jostling throng,
Just one touch and the weak was strong,
Cured by the Healer divine.

CHORUS:
Just one touch as He passes by,
He will list to the faintest cry.
Come and be cured while the Lord is nigh,
Christ is the Healer divine.

2. Just one touch! And He makes me whole,
Speaks sweet peace to my sin-sick soul,
At His feet all my burdens roll,
Cured by the Healer divine.

3. Just one touch! And the work is done,
I am cured by the blessed Son,
I will sing while the ages run,
Cured by the Healer divine.

4. Just one touch! And He turns to me,
O the love in His eyes I see!
I am His for He hears my plea,
Cured by the Healer divine.

5. Just one touch! By His mighty power
He can heal thee this very hour,
Thou canst hear though the tempests low'r,
Cured by the Healer divine.

Just One Touch As He Moves Along (w/ Paul, Lam, Zak & Adolfo)

third term put into words:

https://songbase.life/11766

there is a person who is living inside of me, 
and this One simply wants me to see 
from the beginning there is one thing He’s wanted to gain–– 
God in man, man in God.

I’ve been so blinded, shut in with the things of my life 
but He’s looking for ones who will build 
go to the mountain, bring wood, and build up His house–– 
God in man, man in God.

in my daily life He comes to me, 
makes His home, settles down in my heart, 
He bears my burdens, gives grace, 
and it’s all for one thing–– 
God in man and man in God.

in the beginning our God was only divine–– 
coinhering Divine Trinity.
but for His dwelling, He wants to be blended with man–– 
God in man, man in God.

eternal purpose fulfilled in the firstborn Son 
our Lord Jesus, the first God-man 
His life, a pattern to us of a person who lived 
God in man, man in God.

He became a man, stepping into time, 
blending human and divine, 
He lives in me, now this life 
can be mingled with mine–– 
God in man and man in God.

incorporation––Triune God and tripartite man, 
divinity with humanity, 
He’s dispensing His life into all of my being–– 
God in man, man in God.

conformation, from myself to the One whom I love 
and He makes me the same as He.
He transforms me, so others around me can see 
God in man, man in God.

and it’s no longer I alone that live, 
God together is living with me! 
He brings me through every day 
to the end of this age–– 
God in man and man in God.

the consummation of building the Body of Christ, 
she shines with the glory of God. 
the holy city, the New Jerusalem–– 
God in man, man in God.

Come! to the fountain, to drink of the water of life, 
say the Spirit and the bride. 
they speak together, this is God’s only goal in time–– 
God in man, man in God.

coming down out of heaven prepared as a bride, 
she’s adorned for her Bridegroom’s delight. 
this is Christ and the church, 
it’s a romance divine. 
Lord come quickly, we love you! 
come quickly, come soon… 
God in man and man in God.

Lord, keep my heart always true to You (1st course)

I’ve been looking for songs to sing to the Lord at the end of the day as I get ready for bed. Sun of my soul is one example, (It’s amazing) but I haven’t come across others.

Consulting with my small group I asked what their nights with the Lord look like. Some of which in this song are: telling the Lord you still love Him, asking for protection of your mind as you sleep, and claiming your portion of grace for your sleep.

This is the burden that guided the writing process:
We must come to the Lord with a quiet being. Then sit at His feet and behold/listen. We will come to love spending this personal, intimate, quiet time with Him. Ending the day with Him is so precious.

Lord I’d just love to spend this night with You

I invite You in (with the Walnuts)

written after Message 14 of the WNMM on 6/11/25 – The Great Mystery of Christ and the Church

https://songbase.life/11767

There’s a romance, 
His word a love letter addressed to me. 
There’s an inquiry, 
He invites me to love Him, romantically. 
Just “Come and see,” 
But this tide of love’s met with apathy. 
Yet He draws me still, And I’m running after Thee until…

“This time, this is bone of My bones  And flesh of My flesh.” This time, she’s the same as He is,
This time. 
Eventually,  He’ll marry His people, His bride to be.  It’s a mystery,  God and man joined as one in eternity.  Sweet mingling: Men of clay shine with His bright glory.  But until that day,  ”Lord, I love you” until He’ll say…

“This time, this is bone of My bones  And flesh of My flesh.” This time, she’s the same as He is,
This time.

Let Him kiss me
With the kisses of His mouth through His speaking.  He draws me  With cords of a man so subjectively.  I see His face And I can't help but love Him, helplessly.  I am His, He’s mine! There is Christ and the church this time…

“This time, this is bone of My bones  And flesh of My flesh.” This time, she’s the same as He is,
This time.

Thou art lovely, my Beloved

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.

Lyrics adapted 1 Corinthians 9:24
Tune from Death of the Phone Call by Whatever, Dad
One Lord's day afternoon in 2106 Grace, we were talking about writing hymns and Chris had this nice tune in mind that he wanted to put lyrics to. Well we basically suggested a couple bible verses that might fit the overall mood of the song, and then he fit these lyrics to the song. Well we went down to Melo's room closed the door and recorded the song right then and there. This hymn is just a small simple prayer to the Lord concerning running the race.

Do you not know that those who run
