I am the Living Bread Medley

Thy Name Is Sweet As Ointment Poured Forth

Days Grew Dark, oh God

Hymnal: #1154

1. I love Thee, Jesus,
And Thy love to me
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee,
Draws me, ever to seek Thee
And run after Thee.
Thou art beloved,
Yea! Altogether lovely,
The One in whom my heart delighteth.
(Repeat the last three lines of each stanza)

2. Thy love, Lord Jesus,
Is sweeter than wine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine.
A fount in gardens,
A well of living waters,
Which streams and flows from Lebanon's mountains.

3. O come Beloved,
On my garden blow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow.
My spouse, My sister,
I'm come into My garden
To feast upon wine, milk and honey.

4. Set me Lord Jesus,
As seal on Thine heart;
Jealousy's cruel as Sheol,
And love's strong as death.
Jealousy's cruel as Sheol,
And love's strong as death.
Much water cannot
Quench love, nor do floods drown it.
All man could give for love is contemned.

I love Thee, Jesus

though I love you Lord

Preserve me O God/Prod me with your loving hands

Everything under the sun is vanity,
It's like chasing after wind, so emptily
You have put within me,
Lord, eternity.

Spread Your throne to my will
Father strengthen me 
with power through Your spirit 
into my inner man (Eph 3:16)
That I would be empowered in my Lord
And in the might of His strength (Eph 6:10)
And I shall love You Lord with all my strength.

Chorus:
Spread Your throne from the center of my being 
Spread to my mind, emotion, will.
Gain more territory in me for Your glory 
I would be in harmony with You.

Spread Your throne to my heart
Through Your love divine
I would serve the saints in love (Gal 5:13)
As I put You on as love
It’s the uniting bond of perfectness 
Let His peace arbitrate in my heart (Col 3:14-15)
And I shall love You Lord with all my heart.

Spread Your throne to my mind
Beside myself to God,
Soberminded for the saints (2 Cor 5:13)
Lord do renew my mind 
I would present myself a pattern 
of good works concerning all things (Titus 2:7)
And I shall love You Lord with all my mind.

Spread Your Throne

Psalm 46:1-3 

God is our refuge and strength; / A help in distress, He is most readily found. 
Therefore we will not fear, / Though the earth change, / And the mountains slip into the heart of the seas; 
Though the waters of the sea roar and foam; / Though the mountains shake at its swelling.

1 Corinthians 6:17

But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

He Is Most Readily Found (Psalm 46:1-3, 1 Cor 6:17)

Lord, I open to You;
Align my view with You.
Transcend me from earthly ties
That keeps me from seeing You.

Lord, I open my heart
Make Your home my inward parts.
Keep flowing in me as grace;
I'll rest now in Your warm embrace.

	Lord no matter the cost I'll follow You,
	For I've seen how precious You are.
	When I call on Your name You fill me up
	With Your life and peace and love!
	Fairest of the fair,
	Keep attracting me.
	Not I but Your grace, love, and mercy—
	Lord, I am here.

Lord, I lean onto You.
I cannot live without You.
You are the air that I breathe,
Your words are my everything.

Lord, I look unto You
You are wonderful, beautiful!
Be enthroned in my heart as King;
Reigning in all my inmost being!

	Lord no matter the cost I'll just love You,
	For I've known how worthy You are.
	When I pour out to You, You fill me up
	With all the riches of Christ!
	O King of kings,
	Keep gaining me.
	Not I but Your grace, love, and mercy—
	Lord, keep me here.

Lord, I give You my heart.
Every beat is for You my love.
Keep drawing me day by day;
Abiding in Your love all the way.

Lord, I just love You,
I give my all to You.
Keep me faithful in what I've seen
Oh kiss away all doubts and fear!

	Lord no matter the cost I will love You,
	For You've kissed me with unrivaled love.
	When I say, "I love You," You fill me up
	With more of Your cheering love!
	My Song of Songs,
	I'm Yours alone.
	Not I but Your grace, love, and mercy—
	Lord, I love You.

Lord, I Open to You

C2: C F C G (*Am)

Lord there’s something in between You and me
I fear I cannot see Your face clearly
Encumbered with the rocks and thorns deep in me
O Knower of my heart breakthrough and soften me

Lord Spirit search my heart—try me
Expose me in Your light—save me
Fill all the gaps inside—complete me
I long that absolutely *You and I have nothing between

Nothing Between (A Personal Plea)

O King of all kings
Grant me Your grace;
Strengthen me directly
To Your ruling.
Jesus shall be
My first in all things,
I open to You—
Work Your will in me.

O Lord of all lords
Gain what You want;
I let You in me
To touch every part.
Gain my whole being,
Possess, claim, and reign.
Your perfect will must
Be done in me.

Eyes of all eyes
Keep looking at me;
Search and burn 'til
Only Christ will remain.
Make me, Lord, proper
And righteous to You.
I stand before You—
My Righteous Judge and True.

Oh will of all wills
Revealed to me:
God in Son as Spirit
Mingling with man;
Corporate expression—
Christ all and in all!
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth.

O King of All Kings

Song of Songs Medley

Lord Jesus Christ, I incline my ear to hear
At Your feet, I sit to hear You speak again to me
Deep in Your heart, what is hidden in there, my love?
I am here to listen
Will you open up Your heart to me?

It matters to me concerning You
Lord Jesus, I love You
Make known to me Your heart
Shine and impart
Don’t withhold; tell me all of the 
depths in You
I lay aside all earthly ties and kiss all of the
Deep and hidden things in Your heart

You are my most priceless treasure
I love You with endless measure
I want Your heart,
All Your inward parts
I am here to listen
Will You open up Your heart to me?

Open Up Your Heart to Me (A Personal Inquiry)

Wendy Chao's Album

He Brought Me (S.S. 2:4-6)

1. Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth,
Whether bitter cold north wind or gentle south;
You are beautiful, my love,
With your eyes of turtledoves;
“Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth“.

CHORUS:
Lord I love You, I really love You,
You’re the dearest, sweetest, precious love to me!
Lord I love You, I really love You,
Jesus, my Beloved, for eternity!

2. She’s become a lily, simple, pure and sweet,
Not relying on her naturalness and strength
She is trusting in Christ’s life,
In His rich abundant life;
“Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth“.

3. She’s become a garden, fountain, streams, and springs,
From which fragrant, luscious produce Christ’s life brings,
Resurrection life expressed,
In ascension she can rest;
“Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth“.

4. She’s become the New Jerusalem, His Bride,
Where His presence for eternity abides,
Here His faithfulness we prove,
And we serve Him for His move;
“Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth“.

5. In the final stage of love a kiss remains,
Where the lover and His love forever reign,
“When I find you here with Me, 
I will kiss you, all will see”;
“Let Him kiss me with the kisses of His mouth“.

Two Kisses

I keep falling in love with Him
Over and over, and over, and over, again;
I keep falling in love with Him,
Over and over, and over and over again;
He gets sweeter and sweeter as the days go by,
Oh, what a love between my Lord and I...
I keep falling in love with Him
Over and over, and over, and over, again!

Lord, I Open to You
