F (C capo 5) 

       Am              G
In the darkness of the night,
        C           F2    
Sailing on a stormy ocean,
        Am               G
With no hope or peace in sight,
     F                Gsus4
On a churning, gloomy sea.
 F                  Am               G
Amidst the wind and waves, what do I see?
       F             C                  F
It's a Man who walks above the waves to me.
       Gsus4 - G
And He said,

         C
	"It is I.
	      F            Am - G
	It is I. Don't be afraid.
	       C
	Let me in-
	        F                   Am - G
	To your boat, I’ll calm the waves.
	      C
	I can be in you
	  F                Am 
	A harbor, warm and safe.
	     F            G
	Just open up your heart.
	         C
	I Am the way.

All the troubles in my life
Make me feel like I'm surrounded,
Countless problems, pain, and strife,
Come to rob my soul of peace.
I'm worn and weary fighting off the grief.
Is there no one who my suffering can relieve?
The Lord says,

	Repeat chorus


      C             G
Jesus is the Son of God,
       F             G
Come as man, full of compassion.
     C           G
Crucified upon a cross,
        F             G
He bore all your sins away.
    F                Am           G
His life subdues the power of the grave.
         F                   C              F
Will you let Him soothe your aching heart today?
           G
Then He’ll say,

	"It is I.
	It is I. Don't be afraid.
	Just believe,
	Call My name and you'll be saved."
	Oh Lord Jesus,
	You’re the One I need today.
	I let You in my heart,
	Come in to stay.

It Is I

This song comes from 2 Thessalonians 2:10-11, a warning to us which says "And in all deceit of unrighteousness among those who are perishing, because they did not receive the love of the truth that they might be saved. And because of this God sends to them an operation of error that they might believe the lie."

Steal Me Away

The Love of the Truth

The Love Of The Truth

Rekindle
2 Timothy 1:6-7
E (D capo 2)

D           A
This age of lawlessness
Bm             G      
Cools down our love for Christ,
D               A
Treads down our heart of love
    Bm      G
For other things.
D              A
But our spirit is aflame.
Bm            G
So truthfully proclaim:
D            A
“I love You, Jesus Lord!”
    Bm     G
And burn again.
   So let's all… 

D         A            Bm
Rekindle, yes fan into flame,
            G
The gift of God, which is in you.
D          A                Bm
My spirit, as I call on His name,
             G
Will burn today. 
   Lord Jesus!

Just like to Ephesus,
One thing outweighs the rest.
God wants our love for Him
The first and best.
Our spirit is equipped,
Strength, love, and soberness.
Let's choose to love Him with
Our entire being.
   We choose to…

Oh Timothy,
Commit the Lord to keep
The healthy word complete,
And run the race.
God's Spirit like a flood,
O'rflows our hearts with love.
We'll burn for Him alone,
Until He comes.
   And we will…

Rekindle!

1.
A standing sheaf,
A shining star.
My dream reveals
Who God's people are.
We're full of light,
And life divine,
We live in Christ,
In us He shines.

A "master of dreams,"
I choose to live in what I've seen.
For Christ in me beams,
A shining star, a living sheaf.

2.
Though many fail,
And fall to sin.
It doesn't change—
God’s chosen them.
We’re not a judge,
But shepherds true.
We overcome
So they can too.

3.
The world is but
A glance away.
It speaks to me
To sin each day.
But I will flee,
With others too.
We reign as kings,
The lust subdue.

Yes, I’ve seen the dream!
I live in Christ and He in me!
His word I believe!
The vision’s real and reigns in me.

4.
We won't be swayed
To love the world.
Though ev'n betrayed,
We'll gain the Lord.
Restricted now,
In grace He'll train,
The coming age
With Him to reign.

A Master Of Dreams

Come and let us return to Jehovah;
For He has torn us, but He will heal us,
And He has stricken us, but He will bind us up.
He will enliven us after two days;
On the third day He will raise us up,
And we will live in His presence
On the third day He will raise us up,
And we will live in His presence  
 
Therefore let us know, 
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah;
Therefore let us know, 
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah;
His going forth is as sure as the dawn,
And He will come to us as the rain,
As the late rain which waters the earth.
Therefore let us know, 
Let us pursue knowing Jehovah.

Come and let us return to Jehovah (Hosea 6:1-3)

Among all the trees in the garden of Eden, only two are mentioned by name: (1) the tree of life and (2) the tree of the knowledge of good and evil (Genesis 2:9). These two trees represent two principles by which a Christian can live: (1) the principle of life and (2) the principle of good and evil.

Eating the tree of the knowledge of good and evil results in death (Genesis 2:17), and the devil is the source of death (Hebrews 2:14). Christ is the source of life (John 11:25, 14:6); He came that we may have life (John 10:10; Colossians 3:4); and He even presented Himself as a vine (John 15:5)—a low-growing, accessible, fruit-bearing tree!

Today, every Christian is like a miniature “garden of Eden.” According to Romans 8:6, our mind is between two choices—just like Adam and Eve in the garden. If we choose to set our mind on the flesh, the result is death. If we choose to set our mind on our human spirit, where Christ dwells (Romans 8:10, 16), the result is life and peace!

Contacting Christ as life in our human spirit is the way to eat Him as the tree of life (John 6:57; Revelation 2:7). At the end of the Bible, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is gone, but the tree of life is an eternal enjoyment to the believers in the New Jerusalem (Revelation 22:14).

This song was written for a youth conference in April 2023. Thanks to the “little lilies” in our local youth group for recording with us!

   Love is the most excellent way,
  (Brothers) Love prevails! Never fails!
  (Sisters) Love prevails!
   More than what we do or say,
  (Brothers) Love prevails! Never fails!
  (Sisters) Love prevails!
   Love prevails when all else fails;
   Love never fails!

1. The love described by God’s own word
Expresses God as life;
The life, a law, within God’s heart
Is the Spirit of Jesus Christ.

2. The love of God poured out from God,
Through Christ into our hearts,
Is nothing less than Christ Himself
Who spreads through all our parts.

3. It covers, bends, endures all things,
Love’s strength to last is great;
The love of God, like none on earth,
Cannot discriminate.

4. Now let this love, the love of Christ,
Support, sustain the weak;
Supply the love to build the church,
And care for all God’s sheep.

(cf. 2022 Spring ITERO, Message 1)

Love Prevails, Never Fails

A birthday consecration! Lord, make this my prayer throughout the whole year.

1. Dearest Lord, I come;
This is now my pray’r,
Keep me open to You,
May I always love You.

Lord, I love You more today,
So much more than yesterday;
Lord, I need You, Lord, I love You.

2. Now that the choice is mine,
Lord, I still choose You;
’Though the paths be not marked,
I’m still trusting in You.

3. And if the way is hard,
If things don’t go my way,
Keep my heart soft to You,
Keep me open to You.

4. Dearest Lord, I pray,
Lead me everyday;
Don’t let things come between,
Keep my eyes fixed on You.

5. When many years have gone,
And many things have passed,
I will still be for You,
I will still say to You:

Dearest Lord, I Come

From This Day On

1. You need the Nazarites to turn this age.
Move in me to turn my heart and consecrate.
Save me from all selfish seeking, search my heart.
Set me free, make every bondage break apart!

CHORUS:
I need You, but You need me too,
To do what You want to do.
Rekindle all of my love for You,
To be a voluntarily consecrated one.

2. You need the Nazarites to turn this age.
Strengthen us to overcome in these last days—
All rebellion, natural affection, even death,
Worldly pleasures, every enjoyment of the flesh.

3. Sanctify me absolutely,
Take my life and have Your way.
Overcome in me, give me victory
Through Your life and end this age.

Consecrated One

E Medley

1
Jacob saw the vision of a dream in Bethel,
Moses saw the vision on a mountain, do tell,
David saw the vision of the holy temple,
Ezekiel saw the vision of the house.
 
# Then John.... saw the vision of the New Jerusalem,
Well, it’s God.... dispensed and God built into men,
We need a vision so we open to the Lord,
Seeking revelation in the Holy Word,
Turning to the spirit for the building of the church,
The church is the fullness of the One.
(Ephesians one: twenty three)

2
Zechariah’s vision was for God’s recovery,
Daniel had a vision of Christ in victory,
Paul and Peter’s vision of the building of the Body
Complete the revelation of the age.

The Vision Of God's Building

God Is Spreading In My Being!

The Bible states clearly and repeatedly that God created us as vessels and that He Himself wants to be our content. Just as a potter has absolute authority over the clay he shapes on his potting wheel, so God as our Potter has absolute authority over us, His creatures (see Jeremiah 18:1-6 and Romans 9:20-23).

When we believe in Christ Jesus, He comes into our human spirit and fills us with Himself. According to 2 Corinthians 4:7, Christ in us is the “treasure in earthen vessels,” and Romans 9:23 says that we are “vessels of mercy.”

We are vessels of mercy not because we sought God or because we are better or try harder than others; we are vessels of mercy because God loved us and chose us, even before the foundation of the world. Romans 9:16 says, “It is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.”

Now, we may be “vessels unto honor” by pursuing Christ with other believers (2 Timothy 2:20-22). May we all pursue Christ to be filled with Him!

The lyrics for this song were taken from ministry materials for a conference on the Old Testament book of Jeremiah given in June 2020.
