Faithful Is The Word - 2 Timothy 2:11-13

The first three songs in this medley were on a children’s CD I grew up listening to by Rob Allison.

1
After israel had wandered in the wilderness 
For a period of forty years,
It was time for the younger generation 
To fight for the promised land.

Now the Lord had already chosen Joshua 
‘Cause he took the lead to choose God.
As he stood on the border of the good land,
God gave him this command.

Be strong and of good courage
Do not be afraid, neither be dismayed
For Jehovah your God is with you
Wherever you go.

2
Awake, awake, Deborah!
Awake, awake, break out in song!
Arise, Barak, and lead your captivity captive.

Let your enemies perish, Oh Jehovah,
But let them that love Him be as the sun!

Awake, awake, oh generation!
Come out, come out from all the nations
Arise, Christians, and give
Yourselves to Christ and the church

3
Gideon’s army was like a barley loaf
Gideon’s army was like a barley loaf
And they rolled down the hill into the enemy
And so the Lord did win a mighty victory

Gideon said put a pitcher o’er your torch
Gideon said put a trumpet in your hand
And when I give the word you’ll blow your trumpets loud
And break your pitchers so your light shines all around

The enemy soldiers cried out and they fled
Because the shouts of praise and life came overhead.
So with Gideon we see the Lord’s special way to fight.
It’s not with sticks and stones but with your praise and light.

4
Wherever you go, I will go,
Wherever you dwell, I will dwell;
Your people will be my people 
And your God will be my God.
(2x)

Wherever you die, I will die;
And there will I be buried.
Jehovah do to me, and more as well,
If anything but death parts me from you.
(Repeat last 2 lines)

Medley - Joshua / Deborah / Gideon / Ruth

1.
A standing sheaf,
A shining star.
My dream reveals
Who God's people are.
We're full of light,
And life divine,
We live in Christ,
In us He shines.

A "master of dreams,"
I choose to live in what I've seen.
For Christ in me beams,
A shining star, a living sheaf.

2.
Though many fail,
And fall to sin.
It doesn't change—
God’s chosen them.
We’re not a judge,
But shepherds true.
We overcome
So they can too.

3.
The world is but
A glance away.
It speaks to me
To sin each day.
But I will flee,
With others too.
We reign as kings,
The lust subdue.

Yes, I’ve seen the dream!
I live in Christ and He in me!
His word I believe!
The vision’s real and reigns in me.

4.
We won't be swayed
To love the world.
Though ev'n betrayed,
We'll gain the Lord.
Restricted now,
In grace He'll train,
The coming age
With Him to reign.

A Master Of Dreams

Here are the words:
1
Noah’s life was one that surely changed the age,
When he found the grace of God;
He was not afraid to stand against the world,
So he built the ark of wood.

 	Would you choose to be a living overcomer,
Be a person not ashamed to be a Jesus lover,
One who eats the tree of life,
And drinks the living water?
Would you choose to be a living overcomer,
To leave the world and consecrate
To be today’s age-turner?
I give myself to You for Your return.

2
Moses was a person who was called by God,
He was meant to turn the age;
He was God’s companion, he was for God’s move,
He was faithful, meek, and sage.

3
Samuel ministered to be a God-pleasing priest,
He was absolute for Him;
Samuel gave himself to be a Nazarite,
Saved from death, the world, and sin.

4
Daniel had companions, and they ate God’s Word,
From the world, they stood apart;
Through a praying spirit were aligned with God,
For His people, God’s own heart.

 	I will choose to be a living overcomer,
Be a person not ashamed to be a Jesus lover,
One who eats the tree of life,
And drinks the living water.
I will give myself to be an overcomer,
To see a heav’nly vision,
Keep my flaming spirit burning!
I give myself to You, to turn this age.

Thy Transforming Love Medley

Book: God's Need and God's Goal
Chapter: Failures Enabling Man to Enjoy more of God

Blessed are those of fail
Blessed are those who fall
This is God's sovereign way
That He would become our all
Through failure we can know God
Experience and enjoy him

Thank You Lord that You
Allow me to fail
I was dead but now I live
Praise You for not always letting me prevail
Though my heart be broken, 
My spirit be broken,
Make these failures precious and sweet to me

As the younger son
I was lost but found again
As the Father, You
Waited for me to return
Together we’re rejoicing
Your riches and love now reach me

Blessed are Those Who Fail

Overcome!

Who could ever know the feeling deep down in my heart?
Who could really understand? My weakness to sustain?
When I have lost hope to carry on by myself,
Your Person stands by me to be my hope and life. 

Your love's so deep moving and sweet.
How can I still stubborn be?
No more I struggle and strive.
[I] Trust in your faith and rest in your breast.

When I feel the touch of Your hand upon my life,
I sense the flow of life, flowing rich and free.
When you wipe away every tear in my eyes,
Sorrow has depart'd.
Behold a smiling face.

Your Love's so Deep, Moving, and Sweet

1 Sam. 1:15-18 + Phil. 4:6-7  (A cover and a half)

A man's steps are ordered by Jehovah;
How then can a man understand his own way?
How then can a man understand his own way?

The spirit of man is the lamp of Jehovah, 
Searching all the innermost parts of the inner being.

For who among men knows the things, 
Who knows the things of men, except the spirit of man,
The spirit of man which is within him?

I Have Set Before You Life and Death
