2020 Enjoyments

Lyrics:

1
Just today,
I woke up in the morning and began to pray
That all my problems would be kept and swept away
Or else the sky would fall
And the earth would crumble 'neath my troubles
But I can't have it all
He said to me,
"My grace is all-sufficient and it's all you need
But it is your decision just to taste and see
The manna sent from heav'n
And the living water bubbling over - best of all they're free!"

(Chorus)
Ain't my God just swell?
He's my Emmanuel,
He met me by the well and gave me life that even death can't
quell.
Day by day He proves Himself in extraordinary ways...

2
Just last night,
I tossed and turned when I just learned that nothing's right
Why can't my situations be more black and white?
Not various shades of gray
And if things continue down this vein
My hair will fall away.
He said to me,
"My plan is perfect, all-inclusive, don't you see
That nothing's accidental but it's all decreed
For you to take My life
And to grow in stature
'Til you're raptured to the heavenlies?"

Just today

1
Dear Lord, You want me as Your bride,
 all for Your own.
So now my heart I open wide; 
it’s Yours alone.
An intimate love, affectionate, 
is all that You’re seeking in me.
To live in Your presence, day by day, 
in unity.

Part 1:
You have a forever love for me.
I have a forever love for You,
All because of You.
Part 2:
Your love found me, attracted me;
Your endless love has disarmed me.
You’ve poured Your love 
into my heart to love You.

2
Your love is like a rushing wave, 
constraining me
To love You with my very life, 
no longer free.
O Lord, keep me ever in Your love; 
Your Word keep empowering me
To love You in body, soul, and strength, 
with my whole being.

3
My love for You is not my own; 
You first loved me.
You are Eternal Love itself 
and live in me.
The more that I open to Your love,
 the more love arises in me.
Our love we’ll enjoy forevermore, 
eternally.

(Chorus Part 1 & Part 2)
 You have a forever love for me.
I have a forever love for You.

Forever Love

        The Triune God- a mystery.
	God is one; He’s also three.
	My finite mind can’t comprehend.
	Lord, I want to understand!

In the beginning we can see:
God put man in a garden to eat.
God didn’t teach, or give doctrine;
He just wanted man to take Him in, (but)

Satan came into man instead.
Brought into man his sin and death. 
The right to the tree of life- cut off.
Man no longer could take in God!

God didn’t give up or restart, (but)
Sin’s in the way, keeping us apart.
Who though, could bear our sins for us? (The)
Father God gave His only Son!

Jesus: His name- a perfect man, (with the)
Likeness of the flesh of sin,
Bore our sins, crucified on the cross;
Sin is condemned, we’re dead to the law!

By Jesus’ death we’re justified, (but)
Where is the life of God inside?
In resurrection Christ became
A Spirit Who is life-giving.

The Spirit was there since eternity past, (but)
Now He can mingle with man at last!
Jesus was with the disciples and He
Breathed His Spirit into them!

	The Triune God- a mystery,
	Is starting to be revealed to me;
	God is three for His eternal plan;
	The processed God now dwells in man!

Jesus had made their spirit His home, (and)
Before He ascended to the throne;
He told the disciples, at that hour, 
“From on high you’ll put on power” (so)

Praying steadfastly in the upper room
The Spirit, upon them, was outpoured; (an)
Outward filling- the empowering: (for)
God’s move on earth economically!

The Spirit of power’s been outpoured, (so)
Whenever you need divine support…
The Lord is rich to all who call!
Call His name! The One above all!

	Jesus Christ, Lord Jesus Christ,
	Fill me with Your life divine!
	Jesus Christ, Lord Jesus Christ,
	O Lord Jesus, Jesus Christ!

The Triune God- revealed to me!
Understanding is not my need!
Why limit God to your feeble mind?
Use your spirit- eat the tree of life!

I want to eat the tree of life!
Christ Himself- my life supply!
The tree of knowledge runs me dry;
God in my spirit satisfies!

	Oh Lord Jesus, Jesus Christ,
	You're the One who satisfies.
	Remind me to wash my robe all the time
	That I’d have right to the tree of life!

	Jesus Christ, Lord Jesus Christ!
	I want to abide where Your presence shines.
	Jesus Christ, Lord Jesus Christ!
	Oh Lord Jesus! Jesus Christ!

There is a Great Mystery

The Features of the Living Creatures

We love the book of Ezekiel
We love the visions we see there.
The four living creatures with four faces each.
Such a wonderful thing the Bible teach.
We also see each had four wings 
Which have been joined to one another.
And they did not turn as they did move onward
We see that each one just moved straight forward.

(Chorus)
We're overwhelmed by such a picture
Showing the four living creatures
We're astounded by such distinctive features.
Lord, this vision we will treasure
Forevermore.

Looking at the sole of their feet
We see they’re straight just like a calf's hoofs. 
And under the wings were the hands of a man.
Which gives us an insight into God's plan.
The wings were wings of an eagle
God's strength to us it signifies
He is now our cov'ring, protecting us all
He supplies us with grace when'er we call.

The hands show us we all must have
The most proper human living
Trusting solely in God and on Him rely
Taking up our own cross, the self deny.
The feet show us we must be straight
Must be truthful to one another
We live under the light of His throne each day.
We’re so living and fresh, His words obey.

The Features of the Living Creatures

"When all around my sky is falling
And fear and doubt run deep in my heart,
It’s in these times I’m on You calling,
Opening to You, Lord, my deepest part."

Hidden Behind Every Scene

Happy Birthday Jessica!

*If you're not Jessica* You can replace her name with one of your companions. :)

I know you don't like birthdays, but here's a recording of the song we sing together maybe too much hehe.  <3 Thank you for being my companion. The Lord really gave me the best people to grow in life with. Let's continue to pursue Him! Love you.

Lyrics:

1
Two are better than one;
If I fall, then you can pick me up.
Two are better than one
To resist the enemy.
Three are better than two;
A three-fold cord’s not quickly broken.
(Insert name), I need you;
Be my companion.

Chorus
 God has placed me with you here,
My companions who are so dear.
Blend us, knit us, and build us up today.
Day by day you encourage me;
A foretaste of New Jerusalem I see.
I need you, my companion

2
We are running a race,
Pressing on each day toward the goal.
We are running a race;
Christ the prize we hold in view.
Fleeing youthful lusts,
But faith, love, peace, and righteousness pursue;
(Insert name), I need you.
Be my companion.

3
I’m an ear that can’t see;
There are many things that I can’t do.
You’re an eye that can’t hear;
See, I have my function too.
We’re an eye and an ear,
So we need arms and legs and pinky toes.
(Insert name), we need them;
We’re one living Body.

Be My Companion!

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.

as the world rushes on

1
I’ve been possessed by God,
Secured with His own blood,
Held by His perfect love,
Our Bridegroom from above.
 	I belong to You
And You belong to me!
As one organic entity,
Overcome in me!
2
Engrave Your name on me,
(God as my identity),
And Your holy city named
The New Jerusalem.
3
Dear Lord, I am Your claim,
I will treasure our new name;
I will call Your name again,
The wedding can begin!

Possessed by God

Singing and psalming with Grace in your heart to God and to his saints.

Possessed by God
