My legs are lame; I've crippled feet
My fallen history haunts me still
I cannot walk this narrow way
By nature I will always fail

Could such a King choose one like me?
Within I doubt Your heart toward me
But I shall feast continually
Here at the table with My King!

I'm seated here - my legs beneath
All weakness swallowed up by grace
Though I still hobble all day long
Sufficient grace shall be my song.

The Mephibosheth Song (SJR 2020)

https://songbase.life/3429

Every day there is much work to be done
We are entrusted with the work of the Lord!
We need to do business until He comes,
Bringing in more men and feeding them with His word
Yet each day before we start,
He brings this word up in our hearts:

	First we need to rest, just to lay down,
	This is what God wants, before the work abounds.
	First enjoy the Lord! Just drink Him in.
	Once we're filled with Him—let the work begin.

He ordained our days to start in this way,
We clearly see in the creation of man—
The first day of man was the seventh day,
To enjoy God's presence, ere he worked on the land.
In our time it is the same,
This divine principle remains...

So begin your day reclining on Him,
Enjoying Him as the pleasant pasture land,
Sing until He overflows from the brim,
Flowing out from you to reach whoever's at hand.
If you first behold His face,
Your labor will be done by grace!

First Enjoy The Lord!

Hebrews 12:1-2 Looking away unto Jesus

No Mortal Tongue Can E'er Describe

1
Now from my heart comes,
A happy song;
It’s just for You, Lord,
There’s only One:
J-E-S-U-S, I love You.

(Chorus)
How I long to sing
With my spirit and heart to You.
Jesus, You’re so rich;
In who You are and what You do.
Ev’ry time I turn and open up,
I drink of You.
’Cause I love You.
2
I’ve seen how they,
Pierced Your side,
You gave Your all,
To win Your bride
J-E-S-U-S, I love You.
3
Without Your love, Lord,
I’m so empty
Life has no meaning;
Just vanity,
J-E-S-U-S, Reality.
4
Jesus in me.
What a wonder;
Bubbling over,
Living water.
J-E-S-U-S, What a joy!

Now from my heart comes

1. From the morning to the evening, His faithfulness I see;
His mercy reaching sinners, reaching even me;
And I know, now I know.
Brighter than the brightest sunlight, all doubts and fears must cease;
Sweeter than the sweetest delight, His living Word in me;
And I know, now I know.

CHORUS:
That God is there for me tomorrow,
As He is for me today;
That He’ll take my cares and sorrow,
And He’ll wipe them all away;
There’s no crisis that He can’t bear,
There’s no storm He can’t abate;
He’s my God, He’s my God.

2. Day by day His grace grows dearer; His love has conquered me,
Never leaving, never ceasing, His Spirit constantly
Flooding me, rich and free;
Higher than the highest heaven, He lifts me up to see
New Jerusalem descending, His Bride, His love to be
Eternally, it shall be.

He’s My God

1	Since long ago at Bethany we parted,
 	Within my heart there is a ceaseless void;
 	How can I take my harp down from the willow?
 	How can my songs without Thee be enjoyed?
 	And when at night I’m keeping lonely vigil-
 	Grown numb alike to sorrow and to cheer-
 	Then I recall the promise of Thy coming,
 	But sigh: O Lord, why, why Thou dost not yet appear?
2	Thy manger wakes the thought: I too am homeless;
 	Thy cross strips earthly pleasures from my soul;
 	Thy coming bids me seek a better country,
 	For Thou Thyself art now my final goal.
 	Since Thou art gone my joy has lost its flavor,
 	My song the sweetness I would fain convey.
 	Since Thou art gone the sense of void o’erwhelms me.
 	Oh, how I long that Thou wilt come and not delay.
3	Though even now I know Thy loving presence,
 	Yet in my heart there’s still a sense of lack.
 	Enlightening and tenderest sustaining
 	Can no more satisfy: I want Thee back.
 	Despite Thy peace within, I still feel lonely;
 	Despite Thy joy there still remains a sigh;
 	When I feel most content, the silent yearning
 	To see Thee face to face becomes an uttered cry.
4	What exile cannot but desire his homeland
 	And long his people once again to greet?
 	What soul on alien soil forgets his kindred?
 	What parted lovers never yearn to meet?
 	O Lord, how can these earthly loves and pleasures
 	With all the joy of Thy return compare?
 	Then, if I cannot here behold Thy countenance,
 	What can I do but sigh till Thou, my Lord, appear?
5	Could’st Thou, O Lord, forget Thy word of promise
 	Soon to return and take me unto Thee?
 	Yet day by day and year by year I’ve waited
 	And still I wait, and no return I see!
 	Remember, Lord, the years I have been waiting
 	While Thy dear footsteps linger far away.
 	How long? How long? Oh! must I wait still longer
 	Till Thou shalt come again in glorious array?
6	From generation unto generation
 	Thy saints have come and gone, but have not seen
 	Thy glorious promise pass into fulfilment.
 	How long, how very long the time has been!
 	Why cannot we, dear Lord, discern Thy footsteps?
 	Why are the heavens still so closely sealed?
 	Oh! must our waiting be prolonged still further
 	Before Thou in Thy matchless splendor art revealed?
7	Lord, I recall the many years I’ve waited
 	For Thy return-yet, Lord, not I alone,
 	But Thy dear saints through many generations-
 	Beseeching Thee to come back for Thine own.
 	To countless tears and countless fervent pleadings,
 	By Thine appearing haste to make reply.
 	Oh, may Thou come, the echo of the ages,
 	Come, come and answer now this mighty corp’rate cry!

Hymn #958

Since Long Ago At Bethany We Parted

https://www.hymnal.net/en/hymn/ns/761

In these times of restlessness,
In these times of uncertainty,
When all we trusted has become
But sand and we sink helplessly,
Reaching out, a Rock we hold.
He is still and unshakable.
Eternally and silently,
He waited for us with love untold.

How we think we have control
When all things go predictably,
But when waves crash, when storm winds blast,
We see our human frailty.
Then He’s always there to say,
“It is I, do not be afraid.”
It’s up to us to take Him in
Our boats, our lives, for Him ere to stay.
 	
So that’s why we call, “O Lord Jesus!”
Desper’tely for peace inside
And peace He gives,
A peace beyond understanding.
And still then we call, “O Lord Jesus!”
Just to find the peace supplied
Is Christ Himself resting in our being.

Now from my heart comes
