Hymn #477 (New Tune): Though Christ a thousand times

https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/ns/351

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art,
Thou hast fully captured my heart;
None compares with Thee, none on earth or heav’n,
God yet man, most beautiful One!
How I longed to vanish in Thee
When Thy tender voice came to me.
All past loves forsaking most joyfully,
I’d just love Thee — wholeheartedly.
 	
Chorus:
Who in all the world is as fair as Thee?
Or who else can love so romantic’ly?
Oh, most holy One, now You live in me!
Jesus Lord, I deeply love Thee!
No more trusting self, nor deceived I’d be;
I’d put off my self, just be filled with Thee;
Oh, let all apart from Thee fade and flee;
My one love, my best love, is Thee.

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
I was once rebellious and hard,
But I drop it all now to come to Thee,
Self forsake, that like Thee I’d be.
When I live, be it Thou, I pray,
Not self’s will, but God’s I’d obey;
To Thine heart attuned, Thy delight I’d seek;
No more struggling, fully at peace.

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
We two never, ever will part;
Thy dear presence is all my breath and might;
Thy dear smile is all my delight.
I would pour my heart out to Thee,
Love Thee, serve Thee, joined utterly;
My eternal portion, dear Lord, is Thee;
My one hope, Thy coming to see.

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art (w/Living Stone)

有時偶是青天

Message 1, 2023 Memorial Day Conference in Chicago, IL. Each stanza is an aspect of Paul taking Christ as everything in Philippians.

✨✨✨

(LIVING – 1:21)
For to me, to live is Christ
And to die is gain.
Praise You Lord, I’m free from the law—
In Your life I’d remain!

CHORUS
Thank You for the pattern of Your faithful brother Paul
Make me one who takes Christ as my all.

(EXPRESSION – 1:20)
Whether through life or through death
Christ I’ll magnify!
Make me bold, I’ll not be ashamed
My soul You’ll Christify!

(MIND – 2:5)
Lord I want Your mind in me
Thinking the one thing!
Lord I want to be one in soul
To Your heart, I would cling!

(RIGHTEOUSNESS – 3:9)
And be found in You alone,
You’re my righteousness!
Not that which is out of the law
But by Your faithfulness.

(PREEMINENCE – 3:8)
Jesus Lord, You’re excellent,
All things are but loss.
Good or bad—it’s food for the dogs
I’ve left them on the cross.

(GOAL – 3:12-14)
Lord I’m not yet at the goal
But I see the prize!
I forget, I stretch and pursue,
I’ve left all earthly ties.

(VIRTUES – 4:8)
Righteous, dignified, and pure,
Lovely, well, and true.
May I take account of these things
My praise and my virtue.

(POWER – 4:13)
I can do all things in Him
He empowers me!
Living out Christ in everything
By His sufficiency.

(SECRET – 4:11-12)
Hallelujah, I have learned 
In all of my need—
To apply this secret of mine
Yes, in all things indeed.

(EXPECTATION – 3:20-21)
Hope of glory, quickly come—
‘Come Lord’ this I pray.
Eagerly I’m waiting for You
The price, Oh Lord, I’ll pay.

Thank You for the pattern of Your faithful brother Paul
Make me one who takes Christ as my all.
Keep me open to Your daily call.

The Pattern of Paul

"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feeling of our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all respects like us, yet without sin." Hebrews 4:15

Oh What A Mystery!!!

1. 
Ich hab den Traum gehabt
Herr, willst regieren in mir
Doch wenn ich mich umseh‘
Da ist noch gar nichts hier
Ich bin ein Sklave nun
von meinen Brüdern verkauft
Doch Herr ich weiß dass ich 
Auserwählt bin für dein Haus         

	Wir müssen das Geheimnis lern‘ 
	wie wir uns‘re Gefangenschaft genießen können
	Erinnere uns an Dich, oh Herr, 
	wenn wir im tiefsten Tal verzweifelt sind
	Wir wollen sprechen, Ja, Herr, unseren Traum
	In allen Dingen, Herr, nur Dir vertrauen

2. 
Ich bin im Kerker nun
Ich hab doch nichts getan
Und selbst der Mundschenk, er
Vergaß mich obendrein
Doch Herr, ich halte fest
An meiner klaren Vision
Denn auf dem Thron zu herrschen
Herr mit Dir ist mein Lohn

3. 
Selbst hier im Kerker kann
Ich Dich täglich erfahr‘n
Dein Leben stärkt mich und
Verschafft mir freie Bahn: 
Dich zu gewinnen und
fürs Königreich zu trainieren
Ja Herr, so eingegrenzt
Werde ich kostbar Dir.

4.
Der Herr hat’s wahr gemacht
Ich bin ein König nun
Versorg das ganze Land
Gar meine Brüder weid’
Sie meinten‘s bös‘ mit mir
Doch souverän hast erdacht: 
Jetzt ist Dein Volk versorgt
Und zur Reife gebracht.

Thou art my Beloved

God Holds the Key (New Tune to Hymn 683)

Matthew 26:6-13:
1. Mary poured out her love offering
To many such love was a waste.
Throughout all of the centuries
Such lovers Your sweetness do taste.
Precious lives and heart treasures, too
Positions and golden futures,
Have been “wasted” on You, Lord;
Your sweetness a fragrance so sure.
She took opportunity
To love You; Lord, with her best.
Like her, Lord, I too would pour
My love and all that I have.
2. As I love You I set my being—
My spirit, my soul and body.
With my heart, my mind, and my strength,
Absolutely on Thee.
Lord, I let my entire being
Be occupied by Thee
As I enter in Your heart
I sense a fellowship sweet.
Occupied and lost in You;
My Lord, You’re my everything.
Fellowship so intimate;
In spirit Lord I enjoy Thee.
3. Lord there’s none in heav’n nor on earth
That I desire but Thee.
Though my heart and flesh faileth, Lord,
Thou ever my portion will be.
All is vanity, all is dung;
I count all other things loss;
Everything else drains my love
But You have captured my heart.
Lord, I’ve seen Thy preciousness,
Thy worth, Thy reality.
Now, my Lord, I must confess
My heart is only for Thee.
