Make me One with you // A Cover (w/ Sabrina)

1. Manna from heaven came down.
Miraculous mystery from God.
Jesus said, “I am this bread...
Given for the life of the world.”
Eat Him.
He is the living bread.
Gain Him.
Oh what a supply!
Praise Him!
Only He satisfies.
Jesus!
The all-inclusive Christ.

2. Christ is the spiritual rock,
Smitten and cleft by our God.
Water of life flowed forth.
Now quenching all of our thirst.
Drink Him.
He is the fount of life.
Taste Him.
Oh sweet well of life.
Praise Him!
Never you’ll thirst again.
Jesus!
The all-inclusive Christ.

3. On the cross where He was nailed,
Both blood and water flowed out.
Redemption is fully paid.
Why not receive and enjoy.
Take Him.
Our Savior and our King.
Give Him,
The first place in us.
Praise Him!
One sacrifice for all.
Jesus!
The all-inclusive Christ.

4. He is the Spirit today.
Ready to make home in us.
Calling on Him is the way.
All of His riches to gain.
Breathe Him.
He’s the pneumatic One.
Touch Him.
Oh He is so near.
Praise Him!
Life-giving Spirit.
Jesus!
The all-inclusive Christ.

Manna From Heaven

"Even when my faith is small,
Trusting Jesus, that is all."

Simply Trusting Every Day (1st voice memo w/ Titus)

"Lord, keep my love burning brightly for You,
A love never dwindling always hot for You,
A love, shining brighter all the way for You,
A love, so fresh like the day I first touched You."

Lord, Keep My Heart Always True To You

Realest experience I had in the training. Something happened in the middle of my 3rd term, that just hurts way too much. For a while I couldn't eat, couldn't focus in class, and stayed up many nights weeping before the Lord. Rowed my way out of that maelstrom with this nugget. Now looking back, I praise Him for putting me there. The words were clear, and they came all at once: "He is faithful & responsible to carry us through all the in-optimal situations He's placed us in."

1. Lord, it’s too much to bear
All on me own,
I ask You to bear it for me.

It's not the time, I know,
But everywhere I go
I can’t help but wonder when.

Oh I shelf it Lord,
To the cross I go.
Don’t You hide Yourself from me no more.

Help... I cling to Your word.
Feed me, quench my thirst,
I give my first love back to You.

(Instrumental)            							                                                            

2. I know, there’s no “thornless grace”,
But I can’t stand the pain... it
Weighs on my heart more & more each day.

Why won’t You just remove the thorn?
Begged You but You say no, but
You simply increase the level of grace.

"Lord, You’re responsible
To carry me through	
This deep valley You've put me in."

I’m all out of love to give -
My aching hearts a mess.
"Rekindle that fading fire."

(Instrumental)                                                                                                            

3. Mistakes - made more than a few,
But through them I grew
To become more dependent on You.

I give my heart back to You -
Sink in take deeper roots;
Regain every corner of my heart.
	
It’s not the time i know.
Lord I trust You! So
Make me willing to let go.
		
You know how much i like... Lord.
But i love You more.
Remind me of my consecration for You.

Too Much To Bear / Original (Will's Song)

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

Loved With Everlasting Love

Jesus Name Above All Names // A Cover

Jesus Lord, I love You.
Nothing more do I want.
Nothing in this whole world
Satisfies as You do, Lord.
Though I wander away,
Still Your love seeks after me,
Reaching me; I’m subdued
And I turn back to You.

Jesus Lord, I Love You (w/ Wendy)

Be still (Annie's song) // A Cover

I was reading through the 3rd book of Psalms (Psalms 84) , when a prayer came up in me. 
"Lord, I don't know what you need to do through this situation, but I pray that it gets done quickly. Use me for that purpose. Use all who are willing." 
-----------------------
Our goal is God Himself. 
In me there was a realization that God doesn't care so much about what we ask, but why we ask for such things. What is our intention? Yes we want protection from the virus, but why? 
Yes, Lord I want to know you, but why?
I ask that the next time you make a request to the Lord, just consider what the goal of your request is. That what I've been learning to do.
---------------------
At any cost dear Lord, by any road. 
Realizing this made a huge difference. The Christian life isn't supposed to be Cushy. It's a mirror of the life that Jesus lived. Didn't matter if it was right or wrong. Didn't matter if it hurt or not. Didn't matter if it was fair. 
 The only thing that mattered was if Christ was with me. 
---------------------
My goal is God Himself, not joy, nor peace,
Nor even blessing, but Himself, my God;
’Tis His to lead me there—not mine, but His—
At any cost, dear Lord, by any road.
So faith bounds forward to its goal in God,
And love can trust her Lord to lead her there;
Upheld by Him, my soul is following hard
Till God hath full fulfilled my deepest prayer.
No matter if the way be sometimes dark,
No matter though the cost be oft-times great,
He knoweth how I best shall reach the mark,
The way that leads to Him must needs be strait.
One thing I know, I cannot say Him nay;
One thing I do, I press towards my Lord;
My God my glory here, from day to day,
And in the glory there my great Reward.
-------------------------------

Forgive me for the leaves rustling in the background!

I remember listening to this song on numerous car rides into my Military camp. It wasn't rare for me to be in tears by the end of the song.

"My hope is in thee."

The Bible states clearly and repeatedly that God created us as vessels and that He Himself wants to be our content. Just as a potter has absolute authority over the clay he shapes on his potting wheel, so God as our Potter has absolute authority over us, His creatures (see Jeremiah 18:1-6 and Romans 9:20-23).

When we believe in Christ Jesus, He comes into our human spirit and fills us with Himself. According to 2 Corinthians 4:7, Christ in us is the “treasure in earthen vessels,” and Romans 9:23 says that we are “vessels of mercy.”

We are vessels of mercy not because we sought God or because we are better or try harder than others; we are vessels of mercy because God loved us and chose us, even before the foundation of the world. Romans 9:16 says, “It is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.”

Now, we may be “vessels unto honor” by pursuing Christ with other believers (2 Timothy 2:20-22). May we all pursue Christ to be filled with Him!

The lyrics for this song were taken from ministry materials for a conference on the Old Testament book of Jeremiah given in June 2020.
