Growing up together in the Lord

Why am I scared to Leave the World // cover

1. Why am I scared to leave the world?
And feared to lose my friends?
Why can't I do what You desire?
Why can't I love you as the first?

Oh Lord, please help me to decide
Help me to put the world to an end
Oh Lord, restore my first love to You
Teach my heart to love only You.

2. Why I choose to serve two masters
Though I know it breaks Your heart
Why can't i love You Lord alone?
Why can i not let it go?

3. Lord, I really want to serve You
But the world kills my love for You
And when I'm sick, I come to You
Lord, cause me not to betray You.

why am i scared to leave the world

Dearest Lord, I come

Lord, today, keep my heart,
Keep it all the day.
While I'm young, keep my heart
Soft, dear Lord, I pray;
Lord, I would keep my heart through
every day
Soft and open unto You.

lord, today, keep my heart

This is the correct way to sing this song. 
“He stepped out of glooo-ryyyyy” 
 NOT “he stepped out of GloooooOo-ry”

“Auuu-thoorrrrr” not auuuuuuuu-thor”
“Forsaaa-keeeen” not “forsaaaaaaa-ken”

He stepped out of glory

For three days, wandering in Shur,
I found no water.
Oh Lord, what shall I drink?
And then I came to Marah,
Where bitter water flows.
Oh Lord! I’m thirsty—what shall I drink?

Chorus 1:
And Jehovah showed me a tree.
Christ crucified, He cast it into me,
And now my waters are so sweet—
Christ crucified, with healing in His wings.

Verse 2 
I am in the wilderness of Judah.
I found no water.
My God, I thirst for You.
And so I looked upon You in the sanctuary
I see Your power and Your glory!

Chorus 2:
It is Jehovah who heals me!
His words and eyes and life—my reality.
He’s flowing out to me, twelve springs.
To flourishing palm trees, He’s leading me.

Bridge:
I’m rejoicing in satisfaction, 
I’m victorious over tribulation,
For Christ, in resurrection, lives in me!

Chorus 3:
And now I share His death on the tree.
Christ Crucified—I’m crucified with Thee.
And it’s no longer I that live,
But now it’s Christ, with healing in His wings.

Christ Crucified with Healing in His Wings

O Head, once full of bruises (Hymn #95) (w/ Sarah and Carice)

Abel (freestyle)

Kaiserslautern blending meeting + Frankfurt, Luxemburg, and fttt gt peeps—

1. Each time in the morning, a while before dawn
To You, Lord, I whisper a praise or a song,
And feel Your life stirring so deep within me—
My cup runneth over with joy!

2. And then at the moment my heart turns to Thee,
The eyes of my spirit Your presence can see;
While all is so fresh and the sunlight breaks through—
My cup runneth over with joy!

3. And when at the noontime I’m hungry and worn
And feel that the cares of this world have me torn,
You come as my haven, my rest, and my food—
My cup runneth over with joy!

4. And then in the evening when my thoughts are free,
Remembr’ing that You, Lord, still dwell within me,
This sweet fact releases a river in me—
My cup runneth over with joy!
