1
Once a sinner, now I’m saved;
Still, I lack in many ways.
Lord, it feels like nothing has changed.
Patient, yet I cannot wait;
Loving, yet not void of hate;
Lord, I don’t want to stay the same.
Thought I had to come up with my own solutions,
But You’re showing me the way to take.

Chorus:
I don’t have to know my complications;
I just need to grow in the Lord,
Enjoying Him day by day,
Pursuing Him with the saints,
Absorbing Him just as a branch would in the vine.
There’s no need for me to struggle and to strive;
Just to grow in life.

2
Eating Your word when I wake,
Nothing should get in the way;
Calling ceaselessly on Your name.
Meeting You with all the saints,
Feasting on Your boundless grace,
Praising as I call it a day.
I’ve let go of all religious regulations;
Found a new, enjoying way to take.

Just to Grow in Life - WJ, TS

D
Our God is a God of joy.
  Bm
Enjoying Him is my strength.
    D
His Spirit in mine anoints,
    G                A
And gladness imparts today.
   D
Forgetting all other things,
   Bm
Of service and laboring,
    D
But opening all my being,
 G               A
Exultingly all I sing—

            D
  My God is joy!
             A
  His joy my strength.
              Bm
  He fills my days
                 G
  With ceaseless praise.
     A      D
  My God is love,
          A
  Unspeakable,
           Bm
  So wonderful,
             G               A           D
  With glory full, oh God, become my joy today.

2. Abiding in Christ the Vine,
His living supply I take.
His joy is becoming mine,
By calling upon His name.
This fullness of joy in me
Displaces anxiety,
And fills me with utter peace,
For Christ is my everything!

My God Is Joy

Wooden Spoon - Lofi Hip Hop

This song is about hanging on.
Life isn’t always wonderful, and sometimes your dreams end up buried beneath layers of years of dust.
But you’re still here. You're still moving, still holding on.
And somewhere inside, the dreams are still alive.

Thy Transforming Love Medley

Come With Me From Lebanon

Chords: https://songbase.life/6

Hear the Lord, He’s calling onward;
Heed His Word, His cry is upward.
Each day we climb a little higher;
To carry on we need to take a deeper breath.

See the Lord is not far from you;
He will not only bear it with you.
No need to struggle any longer;
He wants to be the very one to take your place.

All we need is in the breath—
Love and light, peace and rest.
Count the cost, pay the price,
Receive the gift of eternal life.
Call, “Oh Lord!” Let Him in and just love Him.

The ordinary’s what He’s after;
However small to Him, it matters.
To be your all He’s more than willing;
Only requires us to lean on the Beloved.

Day by day we grow into Christ,
Permeated at the speed of life.
Get more God, be more human;
Let His light shine from within.
More of Him, we decrease—
This our blessed destiny,
To reign in life as His Bride; we just love Him.

Just Love Him

From This Day On

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!
