Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone Tune 1

Throughout the past twenty centuries
Tens of thousands of precious lives,
Heart treasures, high positions,
And golden futures have been “wasted”
Upon the Lord Jesus.
To the ones who love Him in such a way
He is altogether lovely and worthy of their offering.
What they have poured upon the Lord is not a waste
But a fragrant testimony of His sweetness.
What they have poured upon the Lord is not a waste
But a fragrant testimony of His sweetness.

A Noble Deed - FTT- Cavite

1 Corinthians 2:9-11
9  But as it is written, "Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard and which have not come up in man's heart; things which God has prepared for those who love Him."
10  But to us God has revealed them through the Spirit, for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
11  For who among men knows the things of man, except the spirit of man which is in him? In the same way, the things of God also no one has known except the Spirit of God.

Things which eye has not seen (1 Corinthians 2:9-11)

D Bm G A
1. We have heard God’s calling, His appearing now we see.
D Bm G A
We’ve received His promise, now His Christ our goal must be.
G D
We have turned and consecrated,
G D
After all the time we’ve wasted,
G A
Now we’re here to seek Him–

Chorus 1:
D Daug
No more drifting, no more passive
D6 D7
But an active seeking of the Lord!
G A
Be bold and take initiative;
F#m Bm
Be properly aggressive;
G A
Rise up! It’s time to gain Him.
F#m Bm
No more drifting! No more passive!
G A D
Let’s be active and pursue the Lord!

2 Now we’ve left the world behind, no looking back for me!
No more ling’ring, no regrets, now Christ is all to me!
From the stupefying world and
From its evil life indulgent,
Now we’re free to choose Him–

3 Now we’re joined to God and to His people we would cleave,
No more to be separated, we would never leave!
We don’t want to be defeated!
We’ll pursue Him, not contented,
Not until we gain Him–

Chorus 2:
No more drifting, no more passive
But an active seeking of the Lord!
Be bold and take initiative;
Be properly aggressive;
Rise up! It’s time to gain Him;
No more drifting! No more passive!
Let’s be active and pursue Him–(repeat chorus 1)

No More Drifting

E                  B7
1. Let us keep this thought in view
C#m              F#m
Abraham is an ancient you;
A                 E
His experience is a type
F#                B7
Of our present Christian life
E                 B7
God of glory did appear
C#m                  G#m
To him His calling was made firm
A                           E          F#m
‘Till he reached the high point on God’s house
                 B7
He must have stayed.

2. Yet how easy ‘tis to fall
When some trials would befall;
Test of famine would expose:
We just care for our own cause
Sovereign God is still preserving
Though we may forget to trust Him
With God’s secret keeping grace
Get back to the race

3. Tis for His purpose not our success
That we’re still blessed by His grace
For our learning not an excuse
Ne’er a reason to abuse
God is faithful though we are not.
People change, things come to test us
Yet God’s secret keeping grace
Holds us all our days

4. When we think henceforth we have gained
One life’s lesson we have learned
Still another test is required
To ensure what we’ve acquired
Many times the second testing
Comes from wealth and many blessing
For our own we never strive
With God we’re satisfied.

5. God of glory, our sovereign Lord,
Who called us for Your purpose
All our lives we depend on You
Do appear to us anew;
Who alone can save from falling
On this high point keep us going,
A                   E
‘til we reach the highest calling
F#m        B7    E
The New Jerusalem!

God's Secret Keeping Grace

1 Abraham was called by God 
to go out to a place,
A land where milk and honey flows,
a good and spacious land.
Not knowing where he needs to go,
he just went out by faith
He took God as his living map
and followed all the way.

Chorus 1:
The glory of God 
became a great attraction to him
Each time it appeared
more of God was infused into him
He believed in God's calling
He believed in God's promises
God's word has become
his motive and strength
To go on with God

2 God appeared to Stephen too,
it strengthened him within
He saw the heavens opened up,
behold the Son of Man
Was standing there
at God's right hand
And was greatly concerned
He cares for the persecuted ones
who live by faith to Him.

Chorus 2:
The glory of God
became a great attraction to us
Each time it appears
more of God is infused into us
We believe in God's calling
We believe in God's promises
God's word has become
our motive and strength
To go on with God.

Bridge:
O Lord, do appear to us, (appear to us)
We pray, again and again (again and again)
We need You Lord, to shine upon us
To strengthen us, motivate us
And fill us with Yourself
And may Your glory shine out from us.

Chorus 2:
The glory of God
became a great attraction to us
Each time it appears
more of God is infused into us
We believe in God's calling
We believe in God's promises
God's word has become
our motive and strength
To go on with God.

The Glory of God—A Great Attraction to Us

D Gmaj7 D
1. A friend whom You can trust—
Em Em Bm A
The person whom You're seeking for to rely on;
D Gmaj7 D
Make me as such—
F#m B7 Em A
One who loves You to the utmost beyond everything,
C C A7
Who lives in close fellowship with God.

D F#m Gmaj7 A
Open Thy being Lord to me,
D F#m Gmaj7 A
Show me the hidden depths in Thee.
Bm F#m
Do reveal what's in Thy heart,
G D
Thy burden and desire impart.
C A7 D
I'm here, Lord, to cooperate with Thee.

2. In You helplessly lost!
As we commune in ways so dear and so sweetly;
Still lingering
In Your presence, which by hour grows far intimately,
To live in close fellowship with God so…

Open Thy being Lord to me,
Show me the hidden things in Thee.
Do unveil Thy deepest thought,
And to Thy bosom fully brought.
I'm here, Lord, to fellowship with Thee.

3. Your purpose to fulfill,
But by Your time and promise, not by my own strength.
Move, work through me,
For salvation and for Christ to be brought forth, as I
E'er live in close fellowship with God so…

Open Thy being Lord to me,
Show me the hidden parts in Thee.
Do unfold Thy interest,
The names of people to address.
I'm here, Lord, to intercede with Thee.

Living in Fellowship with God

F                                                               Bb
1. It’s a shame to see the called ones being captured by the foe
         C                             Bb      F       C
We won’t let the enemy usurp them
         F                                                               Bb
This may bring reproach to God’s name, we cannot let this go on
            C                                       F        C
We must fight the battle for the Lord!

Chorus:
    F                                        Bb
Fighting for the brothers, vict’ry is our standing
    C                                                   F       C
We are for God’s interest here on earth!
   F                                           Bb
We will fight the battle on behalf of our weak brothers
      C                                           F    C
We will fight the battle of the Lord
                                                   Bb
God is the possessor of the heavens and the earth
          C                                    F
We declare the vict’ry of the Lord!

2. Tis the whole point of God’s calling something that He wants to gain
People of His own for His expression
Thus we march forward to battle, for the Body we will fight
We will fight the battle for the Lord!

3. As Melchizedek, He’s our king and a High Priest interceding
That His ovecomers we will be;
As we triumph over ourselves and all enemies within
Bread and wine, we feast, enjoy with Him!

4. Nevermore contend for ourselves, He is sovereign over us!
We have learned to trust in Him in all things.
But the only care in our hearts is God’s interest on the earth
We’ll fight for the welfare of the saints!
