a short collection of hymns that melt my heart.

Matthew 11:28-30

Footnote on Love (Exodus 20:6)
The entire Bible is 
a divine romance, 
a record of how God 
courts His chosen people 
and eventually 
marries them.
When we as God’s people 
enter into a love 
relationship with God, 
we receive His life, just as Eve received the life 
of Adam.
Lord Jesus, I love You! (Ooh)
Lord Jesus, I love You!
It is this life that enables us to become one with God 
and makes Him one with us. 
We keep the law not by exercising our mind 
and will
But by loving the Lord as our Husband and thereby 
partaking of His life 
and nature to become one with Him as His enlargement 
and expression.
Lord Jesus, I love You! (Ooh)
Lord Jesus, I love You!
When we as God’s people 
enter into a love 
relationship with God, 
we receive His life, just as Eve received the life 
of Adam.
Lord Jesus, I love You! (Ooh)
Lord Jesus, I love You!
By loving the Lord as our Husband and thereby 
partaking of His life 
and nature to become one with Him as His enlargement 
and expression.
Lord Jesus, I love You! (Ooh)
Lord Jesus, I love You!

These hymns and spiritual songs were chosen to help the believers experience the joy of the Lord

Joy Unspeakable

There are Times

There Are Times

My Solomon
You’re so affectionate
Draw me to Yourself
With the kisses of – Your mouth.

Dearest King
The virgins all love you
But I’ve been brought forth
To enter in Your chambers now.

Fairest one
I’m black in my own eyes
But comely in Your sight
Why, I’ll never understand.
You’re a cluster of henna flowers to me
Blooming in the vineyards of Engedi.

My Shulammite
This is the Song of Songs
Which belongs to Me
I share it all with you – So come away now!

Country girl
Fairest of the fair
My intimate friend
You know what’s in my heart.

Little mare
We’ve worked in you crown
Lovely golden braids
Filled with studs of silver.
You’re a flower among thorns to Me
Among the daughters you are My lily.

(Bridge)
So as the winter trials start,
And when idleness frosts my heart
My beloved says to me,
Come away
I’ll come away.

My belov’d
Hold me in your arms
Lie between my breasts
You’re beautiful my love.

O My dove
You’re beautiful to Me!
Oh, you are beautiful!
Beautiful, indeed.

Mingled now
Indeed our bed is green
We’ve found our place of rest
Our mutual abode.

Here I always will give you my love
O come quickly, make haste my belov’d.

My Solomon (Cover)

LYRICS

Where shall I go, away from Your Spirit, / 
And where shall I flee from Your presence?
(2x)

If I ascend into heaven, You are there; / 
If I make my bed in Sheol, there You are.
If I take the wings of the dawn / 
And settle at the limits of the sea,
There also Your hand will lead me, / 
And take hold of me.

And if I say, Surely darkness will cover me, / And the light around me will be night;
(2x)
Even the darkness is not dark to You, / 
And night shines like the day; / Like the light.
For it was You who formed my inward parts; / 
You wove me together in the womb.
I will praise You, Your works are wonderful,
My soul knows it well.
I am awesomely and wonderf’lly
Made by You.

Hymn 251:

1. Rivers of living water,
Rivers that flow from the throne,
Rivers o'erflowing with blessing,
Coming from Jesus alone.

CHORUS:
Rivers of living water,
Rivers of life so free,
Flowing from Thee, my Savior,
Send now the rivers through me.

2. Whoso is thirsty come hither,
Here is abundant supply;
Water transparent as crystal,
Come without money and buy.

3. Cleanse me, oh, cleanse me, my Savior,
Make me a channel today;
Empty me, fill me and use me,
Teach me to trust and obey.

4. Then, and then only, Lord Jesus,
Through me the rivers can flow;
Thus and thus only will others
Learn Thy great fulness to know.

5. Now I surrender to Jesus,
Here I lay all at His feet
Anything, anywhere only,
Just for His service made meet!

Rivers Of Living Water / New Tune

Ephesians 5:25-27 "Husbands, love your wives even as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her That He might sanctify her, cleansing her by the washing of the water in the word, That He might present the church to Himself glorious, not having spot or wrinkle or any such things, but that she would be holy and without blemish."

Christ Loved the Church (Eph. 5:25-27)

To Struggle and Strain is Within Me:

To struggle and strain is within me;
To handle Your promise with hands.
My flesh does not trust; it's contrary
To all of Your work and plan. 

Out of my hand, out of my hand,
It's out of my hand, Lord Jesus. 
The promise land is Your command,
O, teach me to trust, Lord Jesus. 

You've loved me so dearly, Lord Jesus.
My grasp You have gently untrained,
To trust in Your strength and Your power,
To live in Your life domain.

Loosen my hands, loosen my hands,
O loosen, my hands, Lord Jesus,
To consecrate, O, operate,
Whatever betide, Lord Jesus.

To lose all my will, O Lord Jesus,
Is hard for it has been mine,
But longing, I'm yearning to give in;
For You to take full control.

Losing my will, losing my will,
That fighting, and striving, Lord Jesus.
Come, mold me, Lord, to You conform,
Transform all my soul, Lord Jesus.

Let it all go. Let it all go.
Just let it all go to Jesus.
No more to hold, just let it go.
Just let it all go to Jesus.

To Struggle and Strain is Within Me

1. My Jesus, as Thou wilt!
Oh, may Thy will be mine!
Into Thy hand of love
I would my all resign;
Through sorrow, or through joy,
Conduct me as Thine own,
And help me still to say,
My Lord, Thy will be done!

2. My Jesus, as Thou Wilt!
Though seen through many a tear,
Let not my star of hope
Grow dim or disappear;
Since Thou on earth hast wept,
And sorrowed oft alone,
If I must weep with Thee,
My Lord, Thy will be done!

3. My Jesus, as Thou wilt!
All shall be well for me;
Each changing future scene
I gladly trust with Thee.
Straight to Thy rest above
I travel calmly on,
And sing, in life or death,
My Lord, Thy will be done!

My Lord, Thy Will Be Done / New Tune

This is the correct way to sing this song. 
“He stepped out of glooo-ryyyyy” 
 NOT “he stepped out of GloooooOo-ry”

“Auuu-thoorrrrr” not auuuuuuuu-thor”
“Forsaaa-keeeen” not “forsaaaaaaa-ken”

He stepped out of glory

Revelation Medley

Hymns of Everlasting Praise

Matthew 11:28-30(Come to Me)with Trifena Thamrin

One of my favourite songs to sing to the Lord at any point of the day. In this one, I tried to make a harmony line work as the melody, and then added parts of the chorus to it as a counter. This is the result of presenting an idea to the Body and having it… perfected. Each one has, amen. Best enjoyed with headphones on loud.

Lord, keep my heart
Always true to You
Never backsliding,
Always viewing You.
A heart that is pure,
That sees only You
A heart (I love You, Lord)
That loves You (Dearest Lord)
And treasures
Only You (I just love You)

Lord, Keep My Heart

Do not harden your heart (w/ Annie & Xuefei) (cover)

E 723, R 109 (в молодёжном сборнике #109)

1.
He giveth more grace when the burdens grow greater,
He sendeth more strength when the labors increase,
To added affliction He addeth His mercy,
To multiplied trials, His multiplied peace.

2.
When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half-done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father’s full giving is only begun.

3.
His love has no limit, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men,
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus,
He giveth and giveth and giveth again.

Его благодать и любовь бесконечны;
Границ Его силы не знает никто.
Бездонно богатство Его в Иисусе,
И снова и снова даёт Он его.

He giveth more grace

1.
As the world rushes on,
I’m reminded of Thee.
Though time passes away,
There’s eternity in me.

Now nothing ’neath the sun,
But Thou and Thou alone,
Can satisfy my heart.
Things temp’ral will not do;
I’d things above pursue;
Eternal One, Thou art.

2.
Priceless ’tis, now I see,
To spend time seeking Thee.
Time is precious to me,
Limited in quantity.

Lord, I just want to spend
My time with only Thee,
For Thou art worthy Lord.
I’d every moment seize,
Not one spent without Thee,
But with my love, my Lord.

3.
How can I spend my time
That it’d be valuable,
Thousand-fold multiplied,
Ever our memorial?

I’d rather spend a day,
With Thee and with Thy saints,
Than thousand days away.
One thing, that do I seek,
To dwell within Thy house
Beholding Thee always.

4.
New beginning I ask.
All my heart, capture more;
All my time, spent with Thee;
All my days, on Thee outpoured.

The time, may I redeem,
From many wasted days,
From wand’ring aimlessly.
More time I cannot waste;
Thou long didst wait for me,
To turn my being to Thee.

Upper room records

As the world rushes on

Lyrics:

You have longed for sweet peace, and for faith to increase,
  And have earnestly, fervently prayed;
But you cannot have rest, or be perfectly blest,
  Until all on the altar is laid.

Chorus:

Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid?
  Your heart, does the Spirit control?
You can only be blest and have peace and sweet rest,
    As you yield Him your body and soul.

Would you walk with the Lord in the light of His Word,
  And have peace and contentment alway;
You must do His sweet will to be free from all ill;
  On the altar your all you must lay.

Oh, we never can know what the Lord will bestow
  Of the blessings for which we have prayed,
Till our body and soul He doth fully control,
  And our all on the altar is laid.

Who can tell all the love He will send from above!
  Oh, how happy our heart will be made!
Oh, what fellowship sweet we shall share at His feet,
  When our all on the altar is laid!

You Have Longed For Sweet Peace

As the hart pants
After the streams of water,
So my soul pants
For You, O God.
My soul thirsts for God,
For the living God.
Psalm 42:1-2

...And let him who is thirsty come; let him who wills take the water of life freely.
Revelation 22:17

Matthew 11:28-30
