A Time for Everything

https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/ns/415

Lord, I love You more today, than any other.
Lord, I love You more right now, than ever before.
Lord, You are so dear, how could my heart desire
Anything that’s less than You;
Lord, You are the One I must choose;
Lord, I love You.

Lord, I need You more today, than any other.
Lord, I need You more right now, than ever before.
Lord, You are so near, be everything to me,
I couldn’t live a day without You;
I’m totally dependent on You;
Lord, I need You.

Lord, I love You (Lord, I love You),
I’ll never let You go (won’t let You go).
Lord, I love You,
I want You to know,
Lord, I love You so.

A Time For Everything💕
(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8, 11)


For everything there's a season,
And a time for every purpose under heaven, under heaven
A time to be born and a time to die
A time to plant and a time to pluck up
What is planted, what is planted

Cho:
He has made everything beautiful
In its own time also He has put
Eternity in their heart, yet so that man does not find 
Out what God, has done from the beginning to the end


A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to tear down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing



A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to be silent, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate;
A time for war, and a time for peace.
A time for everything!

A Time For Everything

1 My heart longs for absolute surrender
That I'd wholly consecrated be
Not in word alone but all my being
Would be fully given unto Thee

2 There is little willingness within me
To place all I am before Thy feet
So I lay my hands on Thy dear head, Lord
As the burnt off'ring, perfect, complete.

3 Lord, You are the only One who offered
Yourself without reluctance unto God
Full obedience to the Father given
Absolute, You sacrificed Your all.

4 As this One, You’re dwelling in my spirit
Moving, spreading outward day by day
There's a whisper of Amen within me
In response to all that You would say.

5 I say Yes and give You full permission
To touch every corner of my heart
Break through all the barriers in my being
Do not let me withhold any part.

6 'Tis my joy to give You all the ground, Lord,
Make my heart a dwelling place for You
I want You to be at home within me
Come and settle down in every room.

7 Lord, do cleanse my heart from all self-seeking
That I'd truly want nothing but Thee
Let my soul be occupied, possessed, Lord.
That You would be magnified in me

Consecration

I love You, Lord
With all my heart
Not with just a part
But with all of my heart
I love You, Lord
With all my heart
The Lord is making home in all my heart

The Lord is making home in my heart
The Lord is making home in my heart
Lord I let You in
So You can begin to make
Your home in my heart.

I Love You, Lord

Little by little, day by day, here a little there a little, morning by morning, from strength to strength, grace upon grace, and from glory to glory, it is a blessing to be satisfied with ordinary days in the divine dispensing!

1 Little by little,
   The Lord is cutting off all our natural life;
   As we grow in Him,
   He replaces us with more of His life divine.

     (Chorus)
     It is our destiny,
     To live a normal life in the divine dispensing,
     It is a blessing,
     To be satisfied with ordinary days in the divine dispensing.

2 Day by day,
   Our inward parts are being renewed by the Lord;
   Every day,
   Fresh and rich supply to us He does afford.

3 Here a little,
   And there a little, Christ reveals Himself to us;
   When we read His word,
   We are satisfied and we enjoy Him thus.

4 Morning by morning,
   Jehovah He is faithful to awaken us;
   He instructs our ears,
   With just a word, the weary to sustain we must.

5 From strength to strength,
   We're on the highways to enter into our God;
   Though Satan opposes,
   We are strengthened to lay hold of more of God.

6 Grace upon grace,
   The Triune God is processed for us to enjoy;
   The law is over,
   Now we can partake of His supply through grace.

7 From glory to glory,
   We are in the process of being transformed;
   Beholding, reflecting,
   To God's image with all saints we'll be conformed.

Ordinary Days

Psalm 16:1-3
1  Preserve me, O God, for I take refuge in You.
2  I say to Jehovah, You are my Lord; No good have I beyond You;
3  As for the saints who are on the earth, they are the excellent; All my delight is in them.

Preserve Me, O God (Psalm 16:1-3)

Capo 1

C Am
1. *I was a stranger in a *barren land,
F
Not knowing the *God of glory planned
G C
To call me out *from the world into this journey. *
Am
By faith He led me to the *promised land
F
Where living water *freshens me
Gsus - Gsus7
And satisfaction’s *in the living *tree…

Chorus 1:
C G
In the church*—here to stay!*
Am
Countless times* I’ve failed but
F
You show* me the way back.
C G
I'm not* of this world!*
Am
You’ve appeared* to me Lord,
F
There's no* turning back.
C - F
I've *seen my destiny*
Em - Am
Is *an eternal city*
Dm Gsus C
Whose *Architect and Buil*der is my God*

2. Though God has brought me to this chosen land,
At times I don't really understand
The sufferings I go through, “Lord is all this for me?”
I am a man under Your sovereign hand.
Your mercy shines and now I see,
Your tenderheartedness to deal with me…

Chorus 2:
In the church, have Your way.
Strip me off of the earthly joys that replace You.
I’m not for this world.
Though the old man decays,
I’m daily renewed
My life on earth must be
To seek a better country
Whose Architect and Builder is my God

3. As I sojourn this temporary land,
Lord strengthen me, so trials I’d withstand,
Not losing sight of the eternity before me.
My future is brighter than what's at hand.
These sorrows, they will fade and flee
As glory fills me for eternity.

Chorus 3:
We’re the church in this age,
Getting ready to meet our Bridegroom that day!
We are not for this world!
We’re preparing for the new heav’n and new earth.
To be His masterpiece,
His bride eternally—
Our destiny’s the New Jerusalem.

Not For This World

(Us)
D A
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
Bm F#m
Which tells the world that I’m okay,
G D
That I am strong and nothing in
Em A
My life can drag me down today,
D A
Beneath this mask hides loneliness,
Bm F#m
And questions: what is life all for?
G D
And worries and anxieties
Em A D
Like rain from heaven, pour and pour.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
Just come to Me, pour out and call,
The feeling of your weaknesses
I’m touched with—yet I conquered all.
As Spirit in your spirit I’m
Contactable, available,
I’ll make more home within your heart,
And heal by life your turbid soul.”

(Us)
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
I am a child longing for
A home where I feel safe and loved,
A people I can call my own,
Beneath this mask—a cry for help,
I’m drifting on a stormy sea,
I’m tossed about from wave to wave,
With no direction how to be.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
I’ll be your Good Samaritan,
I’ll pour the oil and the wine,
I’ll lead you to your home, the inn,
The household of the faith is where,
Your turbid soul will find true rest,
And I too find My resting place,
My Body, where I’m manifest."

Why Do You Struggle?

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

"For the invisible things of Him, both His eternal power and divine characteristics, have been clearly seen since the creation of the world, being perceived by the things made, so that they would be without excuse."

Romans 1:20

Romans 1:20 (Original)

I love You, Lord, so I turn my heart
From everything to behold Your face.

I love You, Lord, and You know it's true—
I cannot live one hour, one short hour, without You.

How lovely are Thy dwelling places;
My soul longs for the courts of the Lord.
My heart and my flesh,
They sing for joy to the living God;
You are my King and my God.

How Lovely Are Thy Dwelling Places

Philippians 4:11-12 (+ 13)

1
Everything seems to be a downward spiral
But I’m on an upward path;
Currents flow against me, still I keep on going.
Wond’ring if I’ll ever last,
“Do not fear”—I hear the voice of my Christ Jesus:
“Just have faith, for I am the Lord.
All will pass, but what you have in you’s eternal.”
So I simply trust His word.

Chorus:
I am not ashamed to be a Christian!
I am not ashamed to love the Lord!
I am not afraid to stand up for Him no matter what I’m told!
The world can’t understand,
But nonetheless I’ll stand;
Fire will only manifest the gold.

2
Though I feel like I’m the only one that’s different
In these cruel, crooked times,
I will be the salt that kills the world’s corruption
And the light that brightly shines.
Lord, it seems like I’m the only one who’s standing;
Could it be, I’m left on my own?
“Worry not for I have set apart a remnant
Who, like you, seek Me alone.”
 
Chorus:
We are not ashamed to be Christians!
We are not ashamed to love the Lord!
We are not afraid to stand up for Him no matter what we’re told;
The world can’t see it now,
But time will tell, somehow
Fire will only manifest the gold!

1. Lord, it seems
That I fail and fail again.
I see Your face,
But then the veils return again.
Emotion’s stirred, but there’s no change in me.
I’m living in my soul; I have to learn
A little more, each day, O Lord, to turn.

2. Lord, I know
That I’ve truly seen You, but
The vision fades;
I look away to other things.
Remind me, Lord, reveal Yourself to me,
That from my idols I would be set free.
A little more, each day, I want to see.

3. Lord, my mind
Is occupied with many things--
This thorny age,
With all of its anxieties.
My faith is weak; I’m caught up in my cares.
I need to learn to tell it all to You!
A little more, each day, my mind renew.

4. Lord, my will
Is resistant to Your touch.
Disarm me, Lord;
Don’t let me win against Your grace.
I turn my eyes and see Your patient love--
What can I do but stop and come to You?
A little more, each day, my will subdue.

5. Lord, I pray,
Make me desperate for You.
Keep drawing me
And training me to hear Your voice.
Lord, even though my progress is so slow,
You’re by my side; You will not let me go.
A little more, each day, I’d love You so.
A little more, each day, and I will grow.

A Little More, Each Day (Original)

Written by N.H.

Lyrics:
1. Enoch and God walked for three centuries
And then God took him and he was not
And Abraham lingered in God's presence
As they were talking God showed His heart

	Chorus
	Lord, I'm here, just spending time to get to know You
	Just draw near, reveal Your heart, show me Your purpose
	Keep dispensing into me
	
2. Walking with God we are in fellowship 
Talking to Him shows me His heart
Gazing at God, He is infused to me
As I abide here we both are one

3. Regular days but there is God in them
Regular hours spent talking  with Him 
Do not despise days full of the small things
Life's being added to you when you say…

Enoch and God (cover)

1
C              Am           F          G
The Lord is coming as a thief;
C                     Am F            G
We need more oil every day
            F                                      G
With lamps well-trimmed and fires burning
C                Am
To be qualified
F                                 G
To be stolen by the Lord.

Chorus:
                    C                   Am
Every "today" that we have
    F                              G
Is truly the Lord's grace;
                    C                Am
As long as we have today
              F                                    G
And as long as we still have breath,
                     C           Am
We should love the Lord
         F          G
And His appearing,
     C                       Am
Await the Lord's coming,
          F                                     G           C
And always take it as an encouragement.

2
Lord, we choose to be vitalized
And overcome all that replaces Christ
We'll let the world go and drop all things
Waiting with all our heart,
Watching for Your coming.

3
Make us overcomers, as the high peak,
The center, the strengthening, the uplifting,
The enriching, and reality of the church, the
Holy city,
Lord, to bring You back!

Every "today" that we have

1. Whence cometh all this affliction?
Should envy and hatred reign?
What happened to love of brethren?
Instead what prevails is pain.
When strife and contention would shake my faith,
I turn to His words, His promise made
And thus I'm reminded:

(Chorus)
I have a heav'nly dream of sheaves of wheat,
Of men so full of life for all to feed;
I dream of sun, moon, and stars
Shining bright in the dark.
So when I see you and me,
I know our destiny as stars and sheaves.

2. We longed for a home together,
In blessed commune with God.
Yet now while enslaved and fallen,
All striving just ends in nought.
Imprisoned so long, no end in sight;
That final abode my sole delight.
Someday, we shall see it!

3. Oh dreamer of God, don't falter
Though challenges life may bring,
Though none may believe that vision
That one day we'll reign as kings.
Have faith in His plan though far it may seem.
O never lose heart! Still speak God's dream!
Believe! Be encouraged!

(Chorus 2)
For we have a heav'nly dream of sheaves of wheat,
Of men so full of life for all to feed;
We dream of sun, moon, and stars
Shining bright in the dark.
So when I see you and me,
I know our destiny as stars and sheaves.

... I dream of stars and sheaves.
