I’m a crazy lover of the Lord! Every day I love You more. Your beauty has attracted me. I’m longing for Your sweet embrace Just to see You face to face. I turn my heart a thousand times a day to say:  	I love You! Lord, I love You! Yes, it’s true, I’m in love with You! 2 I’m done with all formalities. Lord, I simply want to be In spirit where You live in me. Everything I am, have, and can do Only comes from loving You. I turn my heart a thousand times a day to say:  	I love You! Lord, I love You! Yes, it’s true, I’m in love with You!  	[Bridge] Forget about perfection. Forget about correction. Forget about what you are or what you aren’t. (Forget about it!) The Lord is always seeking To spread throughout your being, To make His home in all your heart So turn your heart to Him and say:  	I love You! Lord, I love You! Yes, it’s true, I’m in love with You! (sing twice)  	I love You!

🙌 thank you Lord for your love towards us! We love because you loved us first!

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!

Christ Is the Tree of Life

The World Go 'Round

No Heart for Me Like Yours

Lyrics+Chords (updated)

      C                     F        G  C              
1. Through many conversations
                                F              G
Opening up to the Lord in all things
              Dm                 C
Whether big things or small
           G                          Am
He is touched with them all
            F              Dm      G
To dispense His supply therein. 
 
2.  Yet we await His speaking 
Giving Him the first place in all things 
As He moves in our heart,
All His burden imparts,
We become letters sealed with Him. 


Chorus:
                        F        G          C -Am 
Then we flow out--  just who we are
                      F           G              C   -Am
As who we are is increasingly Christ.
                  F         G               C             Am  -F
When we contact God in our mingled spirit 
                       G             C
We know His heart and mind.


3. The sense of life directs us
In His gentle anointing each day
As His life operates,
In the choices we make
We depend ever more on Him. 
 
4.  His written Word is living 
When we catch, with the Spirit, the flame
As we pray with His Word
Divine language is heard
And as rhema He motivates.

Through Many Conversations (with Zach Miner)

Have you had your cup, your cup of Christ in the morning?
Start your day with a little restoring
With Christ as your new beginning
What better way to start than to start the day singing?

	Turn, turn your heart in the morning
	Take His blood, be washed from all things
	Nothing's too big or small for Him,
	He's righteous and He will forgive
	Exercise your spirit in this way

Have you had your cup, your cup of Christ in the morning?
Start your day with a little restoring
With Christ as your life-giving drink
He'll fill your cup, He'll fill you up, until you sink in Christ

	Drink, drink up Christ in the morning
	Drink the One who's overflowing
	In your heart, from the throne He's flowing
	To reach you. With the tree that's growing
	To cherish, to nourish, to refresh, to supply you

Have you had your cup, your cup of Christ in the morning?
Start your day with a little restoring
With Christ as the heavenly air
Just by one simple prayer, you can breathe Him anywhere,

	Call, call His name in the morning
	Join yourself to the One who's soaring
	Transcending over everything,
	Just call His name and breathe Him in
	Don't think; the breath knows where to go
	
Have you had your cup, your cup of Christ in the morning?
Start your day with a little restoring
With Christ as your first and best love
Let Him love you, He's really good at recovering you.

	Love, love your Lord in the morning
	Open wide to His adorning
	By loving you, making home in you,
	Just love your Lord with all your heart,
	With all your soul, with all your mind and strength

Cup of Christ

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

Draw me, dear Lord.
Draw me today.
From everything else, dear Lord,
Draw me away.

O Lord, this whole world
Seems to weigh me down.
All the cares, the strife, the sin,
Within me and all around.

But, Lord, I want to set my heart,
And, Lord, I want to stay with You.
’Cause only when You’re near to me
Is everything okay.

And though everything may fall apart
Or everything go my way,
It doesn’t really matter, Lord,
As long as I gain You today.

Draw Me, Dear Lord

Written by D.S. 

Consecration is not just a knowing of the right of ownership in the mind or a feeling of love in our affections, nor is it only an attitude and expression of ours toward God. Actually speaking, consecration itself is a part of life, a major part of life. The experience of consecration, therefore, is really the experience of life. The fullness of one's experience of life depends on the fullness of one's experience of consecration. Hence, if one pursues the experience of consecration, it will enable him to grow in life - W.L.

Don't Allow Me to Choose (music and lyrics unknown)

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)

w/ Daniel & singtothelord

Draw me, Lord, with the bands,
Of Your love, with cords of man,
Going forth in my being entire;
I’d in harmony stand,  
With Your goal, for Your plan
Through Your word, joined to Your heart’s desire
 
Make me one who would pray
Mingled with God as my faith,
Always praying and not losing heart; 
I’d persistently pray,
And through prayer be saved each day,
Not in self but in God fully trusting.

Teach me, Lord, not to waste
but to number all my days
(Ps. 84) Better one day with You than a thousand; 
Keep me faithful, in grace
To express You all my days,
In all matters, for Christ’s (Your) propagation.
 
If I struggle within,
You must never let me win
Lord, defeat me, and conquer me wholly;
Not a half-consecration,
but absolutely giv’n,
Lord, I'll pay the full price for You solely

Draw me, Lord, with the bands

It’s a wonderful thing for sinners to believe in the Lord Jesus and receive Him as their Savior. But as soon as we receive the Lord, we may feel pressure to be a certain way in order to to please God or to show others that we’re a proper Christian. Inevitably, we realize that we can’t meet the standard we’ve set up for ourselves, and we get discouraged.

Actually, God created us as vessels so that we can be filled with Him as our content. Referring to the Lord Jesus, 2 Corinthians 4:7 says, “We have this treasure in earthen vessels.” When we’re filled with the Lord, every aspect of our Christian living flows out of His life within us.

The best way to be a Christian is to not to try to behave in a certain way, but to be filled with the Lord by loving Him, calling on His name, and allowing Him to make His home in our heart (Ephesians 3:17). It may sound crazy to tell the Lord a thousand times a day that we love Him, but if you try it, you’ll see the fruit of it in your daily living!
