Psalm 27:8: "When You say, Seek My face,
To You my heart says, Your face, O Jehovah, will I seek."

From WT 2024 message 5 on "Christ As The Image of God and His Treasure":
2 Corinthians 4:7a "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels..." We have this wonderful, precious, and marvelous treasure in us! And this treasure is just the face of our dear Lord Jesus Christ. Brother Ricky's burden is that we would all experience the TREASURE OF HIS FACE. To see the INDEX OF HIS EYES (His person) by redeeming the time to behold His face in our daily walk.

Unless we have the index of Christ's face, He cannot become a treasure to us in reality. And to know the index of His eyes, we MUST have more personal, direct, intimate contact with Christ. In our personal 1 on 1 time with the Lord, we may seek solutions to our problems, supply for the day, wisdom and power, etc. But the Lord may tell you, "Seek My Face- that's the real supply!" So this is a learning- to behold His face before inquiring any other thing.

The more we seek His face, the more we'll know the inward thoughts and feelings which is just His person, and the more we'll express Him. We need to ask the Lord, "Give me the index of Your eyes." Let's all spend more time beholding this TREASURE!

Ephesians 2:7 "That He might display in the ages to come the SURPASSING RICHES of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus."

"RICHES" (footnotes): "The riches of God's grace surpass every limit. These are the riches of God Himself for our enjoyment. They will be publicly displayed for eternity."

Recorded with Tony Wang, fellow enjoyer & my dear companion in Christ!

Surpassing Riches (Eph.2:7)🍏: YP hymns w/ Tony

Psalm 37:23 "A man's steps are established by Jehovah, and He delights in his way."

After the children of Israel crossed the Red Sea, the pillar of cloud led them to Marah, and then to Elim. If we study a map, we shall see that they did not journey in a way that was according to the human concept, but in a way that was according to the divine concept... Remember that it was God Himself in the pillar that led the people on their journey... our concept is that this experience of resurrection will be on a way that is upward, not on a way that leads downward. In our opinion, any way that leads downward is not in resurrection. Yes, in itself resurrection takes us upward, but its application requires us to take a way that leads in a downward direction.

Original by Wendy Chao

You Will Seek Me (w/ Sunny)

1. Jesus Christ is the rock smitten,
Who was struck to save me from sin.
Living water did from him burst,
And streamed forth to allay my thirst.

CHORUS:
He's the rock who's following me!
He just wants me to take a drink.
And now I am never alone!
I'm followed by this living stone.

2. When I'm thirsty to Him I speak,
Then He gives me abundant drink.
As the rock He is standing by,
To flow out to me His supply.

3. So I know wherever I go, 
I can drink His life-giving flow.
He's the rock who's following me, 
Giving His life abundantly. 

4. If deep down you are feeling dry,
There's a way to have His supply—
God wants you to speak to the rock,
All the time in your daily walk.

5. Open your mouth—speak to the Lord!
Then the water will be outpoured.
He's the rock who's following you,
Waiting to give you a drink true.

6. And we know wherever we go,
We can drink His life-giving flow.
He's the rock who's following us, 
Flowing out His life bounteous.

He's The Rock Who's Following Me!

1. Days grew dark, O God,
Cords of Sheol surrounded me;
The snares of death came forth,
Destruction had assailed on me;
And in my deep distress
I called upon His name.
He heard my voice, descended down
And saved me by His hand.
 	
CHORUS:
I will call on You,
For You will answer me.
God hears me, speak to Thee,
My refuge’s in Your love.

2. God is my retreat,
I’m the pupil of His eye.
My crag, my rock, my shield,
My strength is God in Him I lie.
The shadow of His wings
Is now the place I hide;
His presence here, my comfort here,
All by one simple word.

3. God, I know one thing:
You’re the song within my heart.
You are a boundless stream,
You flow in me to my delight.
Oh just fill me now,
Satisfaction’s in Your life.
I want to stay, here with You,
Salvation’s in Your name.

Days Grew Dark, O God

1. From the time I spoke Your Name,
Lord, my life's not been the same
Since I called on the only One Who'd save me.
When forsaken, in despair—
Who'd have thought that You'd be there?
Now I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!

CHORUS:
Now my eyes begin to see
I'm living as I ought to be,
As this turning, burning God
Moves in my heart.
I don't care now how I feel;
I just know that this is real,
And I know, O Jesus, You're alive!

2. All my friends may think it’s square,
Since I’ve touched You I don’t care,
For I’ve found You’re the only life worth living.
Though some mock and criticize,
Lord, they just don’t realize
That I’ve found out, Jesus, You’re alive!

3. It's no statue that I call,
Not a picture on the wall,
But a Person Who lives His life within me.
Wish they'd told me long before,
All You want's an open door,
And that really, Jesus, You're alive!

From The Time I Spoke Your Name

Oh! The joy of having nothing, being nothing, seeing nothing
But a living Christ in glory,
And being careful for nothing.

Oh! The joy of having nothing, being nothing, seeing nothing
But a living Christ in glory,
And His interest here on earth.

Oh! The Joy Of Having Nothing/惟見榮耀裡的基督

1. Enoch and God, walked for three centuries
And then God took him, and he was not,
And Abraham, lingered in God’s presence
As they were talking God showed His heart.
   
CHORUS:
Lord, I’m here
Just spending time to get to know You;
Just draw near,
Reveal Your heart, show me Your purpose,
Keep dispensing into me   

2. Walking with God, we are in fellowship;
Talking to Him, shows me His heart;
Gazing at God, He’s infused into me;
As I abide here, we both are one.

3. Regular days, but there is God in them;
Regular hours, spent talking with Him.
Do not despise, days full of the small things;
God’s being added to you, when you say:

Enoch And God

1. This age of lawlessness
Cools down our love for Christ,
Treads down our heart of love
For other things.
But our spirit is aflame.
So truthfully proclaim:
“I love You, Jesus Lord!”
And burn again.
	 So let's all… 

CHORUS:
Rekindle, yes fan into flame,  
The gift of God, which is in you.
My spirit, as I call on His name,
Will burn today. 
	   Lord Jesus!

2. Just like to Ephesus,
One thing outweighs the rest.
God wants our love for Him
The first and best.
Our spirit is equipped,
Strength, love, and soberness.
Let's choose to love Him with
Our entire being.
	 We choose to…

3. Oh Timothy,
Commit the Lord to keep
The healthy word complete,
And run the race.
God's Spirit like a flood,
O'rflows our hearts with love.
We'll burn for Him alone,
Until He comes.
	 And we will…

Rekindle!

1. Something more than gold for the master
Something more than gifts to appease
There is only one thing that you alone can bring
One gift alone that will please.

	All He wants is you 
	No one else will do
	Not just a part
	He wants all of your heart
	All He wants is all of you
	All He wants is you.

2. Nothing less than this can you offer
Nothing less than this can you bring
It is not just your songs
But for you alone He longs
Nothing less can you give your King.

	All He wants is you
	No one else will do
	Not just a part
	He wants all of your heart
	All He wants is all of you
	All He wants is you.

3. What can you expect when you offer
All that you are, into His hands
Every gift that He takes
He blesses and breaks
Useful, to be in His plan

	All He wants is me
	Unreservedly
	Not just a part
	He wants all of my heart
	All He wants is all of me
	All He wants is me

4. Nothing less than God will He give you
Nothing less than Christ as your all
It is not mere blessings or temporal things
Measureless rich Spirit rewards

	All He gives is Christ
	Naught else shall suffice
	Not just a part
	He gives all of His heart
	All He gives is all of Christ
	All He gives is Christ

Something More Than Gold

1. Jehovah’s habitation isn’t made with hands
His eternal longing is to dwell in man.
His footstool is the earth,
The heavens are His throne,
But the place He’s chosen,
The human spirit, is His home!

CHORUS:
	Christ lives inside my spirit  
	Supplying me with grace
	He wants to spend His time with me
	Beholding face to face -  
	I shouldn’t merely touch Him 
	And then just walk away
	But in my spirit stay and linger
	All throughout the day!

2. The Holy of Holies is the place where man
Communicates with God and is infused with
Him.
Not in the outer court;
Beyond the Holy Place,
We must go further to behold
The glorious shining of His face!

3. Now Jesus lives inside us so we all must take 
Him daily as our fortress and our hiding place 
He’s being built in us
We’re being built in Him
A mutual habitation
For all eternity, AMEN!

Jehovah’s Habitation

1. The kingdom of the heavens is a merchant
Seeking finest pearls in the world
A single pearl He found of greatest value.
He sold His all and bought it.

CHORUS:
	Christ loved the church
	He paid the price for her.
	He knows her all-surpassing worth
	And I too give my all
	To gain His pearl

2. A pearl is something transformed in death waters,
Not something created by God.
The church is nothing natural, but she’s processed
Through death and resurrection.

3. Once just a little rock or grain of sand, we
Wounded Christ who died on the cross.
Our sinner-loving Savior, He embraced us—
Secreted life around us.

4. Although we wound the Savior, never leave Him.
In His wound remain, make your home.
He’ll keep dispensing resurrection into us,
Transform us to His treasure.

To Gain His Pearl

2 Corinthians 12:15:
"But I, I will most gladly spend
And be utterly spent on behalf of your souls.
But I, I will most gladly spend
And be utterly spent on behalf of your souls.
If I love you more abundantly, more abundantly,
    Am I loved less?
If I love you more abundantly, more abundantly,
    But let it be so!"

I Will Most Gladly Spend (2 Cor. 12:15)

1. I am a rose of Sharon,
A lily of the valleys.
As the lily among the thorns so is my darling.
As the apple tree among the trees of the wood,
So is my beloved among the sons.

2. I sat down under His shadow with great delight.
And His fruit was sweet unto my taste.
He brought me to His banqueting house
And His banner over me was love.

3. Stay me with raisin cakes,
Comfort me with apples,
For I am sick, for am sick with love.
His left hand is under my head,
And His right hand doth embraces me.

4. The voice of my beloved!
Behold He cometh leaping 
Upon the mountains, skipping upon the hills.
My beloved is like a doe or a young hart
My beloved is like a young hart.

5. My Beloved spake and said
Unto me, "Rise up, my love,"
"Rise up, my love, my fair one and come away;
For the winter is past; the rain is over and gone.
The flowers appear on the earth."

Rose of Sharon

1. Life is like a road—
I carried my load,
I traveled around. 
Searching and seeking,
But everything that I've found
Still left me empty deep inside.
Nothing I could find would satisfy...

2. Wherever I’d go,
No one would know
Why I’m alive.
Was there a purpose
And a reason for my life?
Where should I go?
What should I do?
No one could ever tell me the truth.

3. Are we all just here
To live on the earth
Just to exist?
To strive all the time,
To make up our minds
To be the best?
Oh—
Couldn’t there be something more?
Could the answer be Jesus the Lord?

4. Here was a man 
Who had a plan just for me—
He died on the cross,
To shed His blood to set me free.
And now He wants to get inside.
Was Jesus the One who satisfied?

5. I wanted to know—
Was He real?
I had to find out!
So I called on His name
Believed in my heart.
Confessed with my mouth.
"Lord Jesus, I need You to come into me.
I confess my sins;
Lord, I believe."

6. Now I have hope:
Christ in me—
The hope of glory!
There’s meaning to life 
In Jesus Christ.
This is my story.
Life is wonderful—
I’m not the same.
I’m so glad I called upon His name.

Life Is Like A Road

1. Oh hallelujah, I’m a part!
A member now of Christ.
Not acting individually,
But in the Body corporately.
When I release my Christ,
The Body's built in life.
Oh hallelujah! For each one part!

2. Oh hallelujah, I’m a priest,
To offer up my Christ!
When we all function as a priest
Then every meeting is a feast
No clergy-laity
In God’s economy
Oh praise God, we're functioning as living priests.

3. Oh hallelujah, I’m a son,
I have the Father's life!
The divine electricity
Is now the Triune God in me
When we all flip the switch
The meetings are so rich
Oh hallelujah! We're sons of God!

I'm A Part!

1. Jesus Christ is Lord of all!
On His name we all must call!
He the highest name doth own,
His name saves, and His alone!
God has given Him a name 
That's above all other names,
Call on Him from deep within—
And the Lord will come right in!

2. God's desire on earth today
Is that all mankind be saved—
And that also they may come
To full knowledge of the truth.
The full knowledge we must see,
Is the Christ, God's mystery
Take a drink of Jesus Christ!
He will fill you with His Life!

3. If you would believe in Him,
You would never be ashamed.
Jesus Christ is rich unto 
All who call upon His name—
Whosoever shall call on
The name of Lord shall be
Saved! Yes— Hallelujah, saved! 
From this present evil's age.

Jesus Christ Is Lord Of All!

1. When peace like a river attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot
Thou hast taught me to say,
“It is well, it is well with my soul!”

CHORUS:
	It is well (it is well)
	With my soul! (with my soul!)
	It is well, it is well with my soul!

2. Though Satan should buffet,
Though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ hath regarded
My helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

3. My sin—oh, the bliss
Of this glorious thought—
My sin, not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to His Cross, and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

4. For me, be it Christ,
Be it Christ hence to live;
If dark hours about me shall roll,
No pang shall be mine,
For in death as in life
Thou wilt whisper Thy peace to my soul.

It Is Well With My Soul

My Goal is God Himself (w/ Wendy)

Jesus, Fountain of My Days (w/ Wendy)

Draw Me, Dear Lord (w/ Wendy)

1. Simply trusting every day;
Trusting through a stormy way;
Even when my faith is small,
Trusting Jesus, that is all.
 
CHORUS:
Trusting as the moments fly,
Trusting as the days go by,
Trusting Him, whate’er befall,
  Trusting Jesus, that is all.

2. Brightly doth His Spirit shine
Into this poor heart of mine;
While He leads I cannot fall,
Trusting Jesus, that is all.

3. Singing if my way be clear,
Praying if the path be drear;
If in danger, for Him call,
Trusting Jesus, that is all.

4. Trusting Him while life shall last,
Trusting Him till earth is past,
Till His gracious advent call,
Trusting Jesus, that is all.

Simply Loving Every Day (w/ Wendy)

1. O Love, that wilt not let me go,
I rest my weary soul in Thee;
I give Thee back the life I owe,
That in Thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.

2. O Light, that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

3. O Joy, that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to Thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be.

4. O Cross, that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from Thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.

O Love, That Wilt Not Let Me Go (w/ Wendy)

1. Lord, You're with me when I'm by myself,
Always comforting me when I'm lonely,
You're the One in whom I find my true rest,
And You satisfy me...

	And now I see... Lord, You are the only One for me.
	And I see... You're the Friend who's with me constantly.
	And I see... Lord You're living right inside of me.
	And I see, Lord You are for me.

2. You became a man to die for me,
You shed Your blood that I might be redeemed,
You loved me more than my words can ere tell,
And You attracted me...

	And now I see... Lord, You died and rose to save me to You.
	And I see... A divine romance with us human beings.
	And I see... You loved me before time ever began,
	And I see You really love me.

3. You're the One inside who cherishes me,
Feeding me with milk from Your holy Word,
Lord, You bring me just to feast upon You.
And You feed me richly...

	And now I see... You're the One who's always shepherding me.
	And I see... You're the One who's feeding, watering me.
	And I see... You're the One who loves me as Your sheep.
	And I see, Lord, You shepherd me.

4. Lord, I consecrate myself unto You,
My time my life, my riches; future to you,
You're the One on whom I'll pour everything,
That's because I love You...

	And now I see... You're the only One who's within my view.
	And I see... You're the One who I will give myself to.
	And I see... You're the only One who I will pursue.
	'Cause I see, Lord, You are lovely.

5. Lord, without You I just cannot go on,
You're the One in whom my life has meaning,
I am absolutely for Your purpose,
And I know why I live...

	And now I see... You're the only One who I truly need.
	And I see... I am living for Your economy.
	And I see... It's because Your being captivates me.
	And I see I'm in love with You.

6. Lord, I've set my feet upon the track,
Pressing onward just to fulfil your dream,
And may I nevermore turn my head back,
'Cause I am just for You...

	And now I see... Lord You've drawn me away to Yourself.
	And I see... I'm pursuing You, Lord, wholeheartedly.
	And I see... There is nothing else on earth for me.
	And I see, Lord You are my goal.

Now I See

1. Lord, fill me up past the brim,
Pouring in from limb to limb. 
It’s Your love that comforts me 
Deeper and wider  than the sea. 

CHORUS:
	 I am a Jesus Bottle!
	 I am an open vessel!
	 I am a gushing fountain
	 Flowing with Christ Jesus my Lord!   

2. Lord I was blind; I could not see.
It’s Your light that shines through me.
Nothing can explain how bright
Like Your star that appeared that night.

3. Power that is a mystery;
It’s Your Spirit infusing me.
All because of God’s vast grace,
There’s this big smile on my face!

I Am A Jesus Bottle!

1. I want to fully follow Jehovah
All the days of my life.
No hesitation
No reservation
Fully trusting Him.

	Lord, when I look back on the journey
	And all of the things You’ve done for me.
	How could I settle and stand back
	from all You’ve prepared for me?
	I want to fully follow You
	Into the good land You promised.
	I want to gain my all-inclusive Christ.

2. I want to fully follow Jehovah
All the days of my life.
Deal with the old man,
Off to the good land,
To enjoy my Christ.

3. I want to fully follow Jehovah
All the days of my life.
Leave all the matters
In His safe hands to
Let Him make His choice.

4. I want to fully follow Jehovah
All the days of my life.
I’ll pay the price to
Cross o’er the Jordan
To possess my Christ.

5. We want to fully follow Jehovah
All the days of our lives.
Be strong and take courage
To claim our portion
Our all-inclusive Christ.

	Lord, when we look back on the journey
	We’ll say that it’s You we chose fully
	We didn’t settle and stand back
	From gaining You thoroughly.
	We want to fully follow You
	Into the good land You promised.
	We want to gain our all-inclusive Christ.


I Want To Fully Follow Jehovah

1. In the beginning we can see
God placed man in front of
 two diff'rent trees—
The tree of life and the tree of
knowledge of good and evil.

One leads to life by eating Him.
And the other leads to deadness and sin.
So, feed on Christ! Don’t be satisfied
with being good and legal.

CHORUS:
	Christ
	Is the tree of life.
	He’s our life-supply.
	Let’s choose the way of life!
	Take Him in
	By enjoying Him!
	Open deep within.
	And on His life depend.
	
	(End: Eat the tree of life!)

2. Now everyone can feast on Him!
Open deeply and be filled to the brim!
Partake of Christ as the tree of life.
Express Him together.

Give Christ the first place in our hearts.
As we love Him all His life He imparts.
In spirit He fills eternally!
Satisfied forever!

In The Beginning We Can See

1. God needs some young people
To keep themselves from defilement,
Some who will stand against
The current of the age,
Who will declare, “Lord, from today:

We’re going to flee
Youthful lusts and pursue
Righteousness me and you
Who call upon the Lord
From a pure heart
Keep purifying our hearts,
Enlightening every part”.
O Lord, till the church
Is all we see.

2. God needs some young people
To keep themselves from defilement,
Some who will stand against
The current of the age,
Who will declare,
“Lord, from today:

We’re going to flee
Youthful lusts and pursue
Righteousness with the view
To the building of the church;
Not wasting time,
Pressing on toward the goal,
Occupied with the prize”.
O Lord, we’ve been wrecked.
We’ll build Your church.
O Lord, we’ve been wrecked.
We’ll build Your church.

God Needs Some Young People

1. I must have Jesus in my whole life,                        
I must have Jesus in my life                         
In my walking, in my talking 
In my sleeping, in my waking 
I must have Him in my life.

2. I must have Jesus in my whole life,
I must have Jesus in my life
In my love and in my humor
In my sadness, in my anger
I must have Him in my life.

(Key Change)

3. I must have Jesus in my whole life,
I must have Jesus in my life
If I do this thing or that thing 
He must be in my deciding
I must have Him in my life.

4. I must have Jesus in my whole life,
I must have Jesus in my life
In my thinking, analyzing
In the spirit of my mind—
I must have Him in my life.

(Key Change)

5. I must have Jesus in my whole life,
I must have Jesus in my life
In my daily supplications
For my present consecrations
I must have Him in my life.

6. I must have Jesus in my whole life,
I must have Jesus in my life
He must be in every part—
Lord, make home in all my heart—
I must have Him in my life.
I must have Him in my life.


I Must Have Jesus!

1. Our God is a God of joy.
Enjoying Him is my strength.
His Spirit in mine anoints,
And gladness imparts today.
Forgetting all other things,
Of service and laboring,
But opening all my being,
Exultingly all I sing—

	My God is joy!
	His joy my strength.
	He fills my days
	With ceaseless praise.
	My God is love,
	Unspeakable,
	So wonderful,
	With glory full, oh God, become my joy today.

2. Abiding in Christ the Vine,
His living supply I take.
His joy is becoming mine,
By calling upon His name.
This fullness of joy in me
Displaces anxiety,
And fills me with utter peace,
For Christ is my everything!

My God Is Joy!

1. The Lord gave gifts to the churches,
Precious saints who love the Lord.
First apostles and prophets,
Speaking forth Christ as the word!
Then He gave some gifts as evangelists,
Who proclaim the gospel of Christ!
There are shepherd-teachers, feeding the saints.
But Lord, who am I?
 
CHORUS:
Lord, I’m ready and willing to be perfected by You,
Through the saints all around me, to build Your Body too!

2. Lord, I feel I’m unable to do what others can do.
As I look all around me, they all seem more useful to You.
But I see, dear Lord, I‘m here for Your need,
To build up Your church today!
And You gave these gifts that I may be trained,
Lord, perfect me, I pray!

3. In the church I’m perfected by the saints with the life supply.
I am growing and building, as I learn to minister Christ!
“Till we all arrive,” yes, this is our goal!
Every member builds today!
Lord, I give myself, Your Body to build.
Lord, for this now I pray!

Willing to Be Perfected

If You lead me a way that I know,
It would not benefit like the ways unknown.
As You lead me a way that I don’t understand,
I only can open to You.
 
This leads to thousands of conversations:
“Who are You, Lord? What shall I do?”
Each one forms a piece of our journey together,
An eternal memorial between me and You.

Thousands of Conversations

1. All thy griefs by Him are ordered,
  Needful is each one for thee;
All thy tears by Him are counted,
  One too much there cannot be;
And if while they fall so quickly
  Thou canst own His way is right,
Then each bitter tear of anguish
  Precious is in Jesus’ sight.

2. Far too well thy Savior loves thee
  To allow thy life to be
One long, calm, unbroken summer—
  One unruffled, stormless sea;
He would have thee fondly nestling
  Closer to His loving breast,
He would have that day seem brighter
  When alone is perfect rest.

All Thy Griefs By Him Are Ordered

1. This time I will not question,
This time I won’t go free,
This time I shall lie quiet,
This time He touches me.

CHORUS:
Do, Lord, what You will
Freely thus in me —
Without reservation;
All is well with me.

2. Though valleys seem forever,
Few hills, yea, far between,
I ask not for relief from
What’s measured out to me.

3. I know the way is narrow,
The course is long and rough;
As long as You are happy,
Your smile — it is enough.

This Time I Will Not Question

1. Are You the One who came from heav’n?
The mighty God who suffered the curse of sin and died,
And they pierced Your side.
Rose from the grave, You’re ever new;
You’ve sown in me the seed of life that grew
From sinner, poor and blind
To New Jerusalem.

CHORUS: 
I love You more
With all my heart, with all my soul,
(Oh, Love divine)
With all my strength, with all my mind;
Sweet, sweet repose.

2. Are You the One my heart has known?
Are You the One, my spirit has richly grown to love?
Oh come, Beloved
And with my lips, shall I confess
That deep in You my heart found rest
And peace as ocean’s depth?
Oh, fill me with Your breath!

Sweet, Sweet Repose

There Is A River

CHORUS:
Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ,
  Thy love has conquered me;
Beneath Thy Cross I die to self,
  And live alone to Thee.
 
1. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ,
  Nor creed, nor form, nor word,
Nor holy Church, nor human love,
  Compare with Thee, my Lord!

2. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ,
  My inmost being fill;
So shall I think as Thou dost think,
  And will as Thou dost will.

3. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ,
  Thy life transfigure mine;
And through this veil of mortal flesh,
  Lord, let Thy splendor shine.

4. Be Thou supreme, O Jesus Christ,
  My soul exults in Thee;
To be Thy slave, to do Thy will,
  Is my felicity.

Be Thou Supreme

"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

1. Lord, now I see,
You only want me to believe;
Not to dwell
In all my failures and defeats;
To believe what You have done,
And not in what I see.
2. Lord I believe,
When all around me is defeat
And it seems that nothing’s changing outwardly.
No! I’m not discouraged,
I’m believing You.
3. Yes, I believe,
And there is no demand on me.
Simple faith, yes, that is all You want from me.
Freed from anxious doubting—
I’m free to just believe!
4. Believing You,
Because, Lord, You are my success!
When I fail, all I must do is just confess,
And go on enjoying You—
I love believing You!

Lord, Now I See

1. Lamb of God—our dear Redeeming One is Christ!
For our sins He paid the highest price
To redeem and to recover us
Who were lost and fallen far from God.
As the Lamb, He had no blemish;
He was meek, even submissive.
How can we like Him obedient be
Unto death, that even of the cross?

CHORUS: I want to follow Him,
Rest from all my wandering,
End all my endeavoring;
Even though I know not where or
How—I know He cares!
I know He’ll never err; I know He’ll lead me well.
I know His voice; this now my choice—
Follow where the Lamb would lead.

2. When He came, though many followed in the way,
Few remained who knew Him and His ways.
Lamb of God—He took  the narrow gate;
The constricted way to life He traced;
Sacrificed, though men denied Him;
Gave His life, though men forsook Him.
How can we t’ward Him still hardened be
When to us He gave all selflessly?

3. Lord we pray, preserve us faithful in the way
All our days, never to fall away.
By Your grace, keep us pursuing You,
Taking up the cross to follow You.
Consecrate we unreservedly,
Absolute for You entirely.
In our hearts, Lord, let the highways be
Unto Zion single-heartedly.

CHORUS 2: Now we will follow Him!
To His call we’re answering,
All we are we’re offering.
New Jerusalem we see
Come down from heav’n to earth!
God and man mingled now, our oneness we avow
Eternally, O gloriously!
This is where the Lamb would lead!

I Want To Follow Him

1. The Bible is a romance
In the most holy sense:
God and His chosen people
In love it so presents.
This Universal Couple
Throughout it is displayed;
God in Christ is the Bridegroom,
His saints, the Bride, portrayed.
2. Through shadows, types and figures,
God’s deepest thought is known;
As typified by Adam,
The Husband, Christ, is shown.
A rib brought forth from Adam
Reveals the source of life
By which God built a woman:
Eve, as the church, His wife.
3. To be His people’s Husband,
To take them as His wife:
This is what God desires
To live in marriage life.
Their sacrifice and worship
Alone could not content;
But with them to be married
Was God’s foremost intent.
4. This romance is the finest
As seen in Song of Songs;
For her Beloved’s kisses
His seeking lover longs.
Love’s work in her produces
No person of her own,
But she becomes the City,
Her Person, Christ alone.
5. Christ is our coming Bridegroom;
We are the Church, His Bride,
Redeemed, regenerated,
The issue of His side,
In source, in life, in nature
And person fully one,
His counterpart forever,
The New Jerusalem.

The Bible Is A Romance

1. O troubled soul, beneath the rod
Thy Father speaks—be still, be still;
Learn to be silent unto God,
And let Him mold thee to His will.
CHORUS: Be still, O troubled soul, be still;
Fear not, thy Father’s arms enfold thee.
Take up thy cross, lay down thy will;
Be silent unto God, and let Him mold thee.
2. O anxious soul, lay down thy load,
Oh, hear His voice, He speaks to thee,
“Be still and know that I am God,
And cast thy every care on Me.”
3. O fearful soul, be still, be still,
Be of good cheer; has He not said,
“I will be with you, fear no ill,
’Tis I, ’tis I, be not afraid“?
4. O praying soul, be still, be still,
He cannot break His plighted word;
Sink down into His blessed will,
And wait in patience on the Lord.
5. O waiting soul, be still, be strong,
And though He tarry, trust and wait;
Doubt not, He will not wait too long,
Fear not, He will not come too late.

Be Still / Original (Annie's Song)

1. Prod me with Your loving hands,
Stir me from my deep impasse.
I long to flee this stagnant rut;
My soul, my prison, deadened lot,
Which end is just to taste Your wrath;
So set me on the narrow path.
Thorns and thistles may line this road
But it leads me to the mutual abode.

2. Lift me up with Your mighty hand
Above this frenzied earthly land.
Set me on the mount to see
What the world can offer me;
Till I see the vanity from on high
And earthly desires I bid goodbye
And set my eyes on You.

A Higher View (w/ Josh)

1. Lovers of Christ in His ascension—
Enjoy the riches of His life.
She becomes His private garden
With its fountain, fruit, and spice.
Christ is hers and she is Christ’s dear love.

2. She is as beautiful as Tirzah
As lovely as Jerusalem.
Through her living in Christ’s ascension
Her dear heart is now His home.
She’s become the sanctuary of God.

3. Who is this woman I am seeing?
Shining forth as the moon and sun.
She is absolutely heavenly,
From the old creation free;
Overcoming all to live within the veil.

4. An army terrible with banners
Christ’s lovers overcome to be.
Those attracted by His beauty,
Fully trusting in His power.
Her romance is now the dances of two camps.

5. The Shulamite, His duplication,
His counterpart has now become.
She’s the same in life and nature,
His expression to the full;
Consummated as the New Jerusalem.

Lovers Of Christ In His Ascension

1. Immersed in Thy love;
Fresher than morning dew;
Here I’m kept away from every earthly care.
Such tender feeling;
Caressed by my Beloved;
You’re the loveliest, much fairer than the fair.

CHORUS:
Moments with You,
How affectionate!
Now I seize this opportunity to say
That I love You.
I will be with You all my days, come what may.

2. I cannot help it,
I’m so in love with You;
For I’ve tasted Your divine heavenly wine.
I’m soaked with Thy love,
I pour my all on You.
What my future holds for me, my Lord are Thine.

3. I’m so attracted
By Your constraining love,
And Your Name is sweet as ointment poured forth.
I’m captivated
By Your dear Person, Lord.
Draw me from this age to pursue only You...

Immersed In Thy Love

1. Hast thou heard Him, seen Him, known Him?
Is not thine a captured heart?
Chief among ten thousand own Him;
Joyful choose the better part.

CHORUS:
Captivated by His beauty,
Worthy tribute haste to bring;
Let His peerless worth constrain thee,
Crown Him now unrivaled King.

2. Idols once they won thee, charmed thee,
Lovely things of time and sense;
Gilded thus does sin disarm thee,
Honeyed lest thou turn thee thence.

3. What has stripped the seeming beauty
From the idols of the earth?
Not a sense of right or duty,
But the sight of peerless worth.

4. Not the crushing of those idols,
With its bitter void and smart;
But the beaming of His beauty,
The unveiling of His heart.

5. Who extinguishes their taper
Till they hail the rising sun?
Who discards the garb of winter
Till the summer has begun?

6. ’Tis that look that melted Peter,
’Tis that face that Stephen saw,
’Tis that heart that wept with Mary,
Can alone from idols draw:

7. Draw and win and fill completely,
Till the cup o’erflow the brim;
What have we to do with idols
Who have companied with Him?

Hast Thou Heard Him, Seen Him, Known Him?

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

1. I’m so happy here,
With my Father dear,
Once lost, now I’m near again!
(It was) First His smiling face,
Then His warm embrace,
I’m surprised by grace again!

CHORUS:
I was lost, now I’m found again!
I was dead, but now I live!
Come rejoice with us, and be merry then.
Back in my Father’s house again!

2. Robe, ring, sandals on
And my hunger’s gone!
Back where I belong, again!
(Because He) Clothed me thoroughly,
(And then He) Reinstated me!
(Now I’m) Back in the family again!

Back In My Father’s House Again

1. I need a new heart
So God gave His Spirit to me,
I need a new start
Each morning, dear Lord, renew me;
He saves and revives me,
Making home in all our hearts,
    I need a new heart....
    I need a new start....
    I need a new heart, today!

2. I need a soft heart,
Repenting to God completely,
To transform each part,
By loving the Lord more deeply;
The Lord is the Spirit
And we all with unveiled face
    Receive a soft heart....
    Enjoy a fresh start....
    Receive a soft heart, today!

3. Lord, broaden my heart,
In matters of pride, defeat me;
A duplicate heart,
From Your heart to mine, infuse me;
To minister Jesus,
Showing love to all we meet,
    Lord, broaden my heart....
    Lord, be my new start....
    Lord, broaden my heart, today!
 	
ENDING:
Lord, You’re my new heart,
Lord, You’re my soft heart,
Lord, give us Your heart, we pray!
2018 ITERO, Message 4

I Need A New Heart

1. The Father God, the deepest spring,
The rich eternal source,
Emerges as the living spring,
In Jesus Christ, the course;
The Spirit is the flowing spring,
A springing up in us;
The river of life, the triune spring,
Profoundly glorious.

CHORUS:
This river is huge, this river is deep,
This river is wide,
It’s flowing out from the smitten rock,
The Savior’s side;
This river is clear, this river is pure,
This river is bright,
The Triune God, the glorified Christ,
Resurrection life.

2. Uniquely one, this flowing grace,
The living God divine
From Eden flows to every place,
And reaches all mankind;
By drinking of the stream of life,
The saints become His bride,
His counterpart, increase of Christ,
The issue from His side.

3. This river of God is flowing free,
A priceless living spring,
Wherever it flows conveys the tree,
Brings life to everything;
This turbulent river is full and great,
And man regenerates;
This hydro-power permeates,
Transforms and saturates.

4. These rapids of life will not relent
But swiftly reach the end,
The Triune God mingling with men,
The New Jerusalem;
The sweetness of this river of life,
The all-inclusive Christ,
Will consummate the sanctified
Unto eternal life.

This River (w/ Titus & Michael)

1. Lord, keep me living, through deep sorrows and steep joys,
My human life is filled with days of darkness, days of songs.
What’s the purpose? What’s the reason for all this?
Lord, it’s only by Your grace, by the grace of God I’ll live.

CHORUS:
Keep me living by the grace of God,
Make this a reality, Christ living in me.
Keep me living by the grace of God,
For the reality, of the Body of Christ.

2. Lord, Your grace, is flowing from the throne,
Not material gifts, nor blessings, but the processed Triune God.
God the Father’s boundless riches, God the Son an endless spring,
God the Spirit’s ceaseless flowing thus the Triune God to bring.

CHORUS:
Keep me living by the grace of God,
Make this a reality, Christ living in me.
Keep me living by the grace of God,
For the reality, of the Body of Christ.

3. Lord, Your Body, must become reality,
Through every member functioning to build up Your Body.
So defeat us, and subdue us, open vessels, Lord we pray,
As stewards of the grace of God, Lord build us up today.

CHORUS:
Keep us living by the grace of God,
Make this a reality, Christ living in us.
Keep us living by the grace of God,
For the reality, of the Body of Christ.

Live before His face;
Drink of His nearness,
Faint in His embrace.
Gaze at His beauty,
Stir upon His sight;
Bathe in His glory,
Bask in His delight.

Yearn for His whisper,
Long for His still voice;
Tune to His senses,
Yield to His best choice.

Shout to His true grace;
Wait for His coming,
Watch for His dear trace!

Melt In His Presence / Original (Minoru's Song)

SHEPHERD:
Wandering sheep, where did you go?
The ninety-nine's here but you're not home
Wandering sheep, aren't you alone?
Don't you feel the hunger, thirst and cold?

CHORUS:
I'll come down for you.
There's nothing to fear;
The Shepherd is near.
I'll give all for you;
Just open your heart,
Tell me where you are

SHEEP:
I thought I found some greener grass,
Thought it was better than the last,
Only to slip into the cracks,
Stuck in the dark and now I can't get back—

CHORUS:
I've fallen too deep
I made one mistake,
I can't get away.
Shepherd, rescue me.
You're all that I know,
You're my only hope.

DUET:
Wandering sheep, where have you been? (I have left the flock my Shepherd)
I'll tend to your wounds and help them heal. (What did I do to deserve this?)
No longer fret; you're safe and sound. (Let me rest upon your shoulders.)
I'll bring you to where My grace abounds. (You're my only satisfaction.)

CHORUS:
Shepherd, Savior, Friend
My Pasture so green,
And my living Spring.
Here I've found my home,
Your flock is my own,
No longer alone.

Wandering sheep, you're home at last! 
I've waited for you - welcome back.

The Shepherd & The Sheep / Original (Tim's Song)

1. How could a country girl like me
Become Your match — Your bride to be?
You’re holy and You are divine
But I’m fallen and human.

Without You, Lord, I have no chance
To be like You in this romance.
But You chose me ere the world began
Nothing could change Your plan.

CHORUS:
This divine romance
Is My heart’s deep plan.
I became a lowly man
To court My country girl.
Nothing could deter,
Nothing can alter
My eternal love for her;
I’ll gain My country girl.

2. No man or angel ever knew
This secret hidden deep in You
That You desired to be one with man
Before the world began.

Though sin came in to ruin me
Through Satan’s scheme and subtlety
Nothing could break Your love for me
To gain me totally.

CHORUS:
This divine romance
Is My heart’s deep plan,
I became a lowly man
To court My country girl.
Nothing could deter,
Nothing can alter
My eternal love for her;
I’ll gain My country girl.

3. As King of kings You became a man,
You died for me—I’ve been redeemed,
In resurrection made us queen
To marry You, my King.

From death You ’rose and entered me,
I now possess Your divinity;
In life and nature we’re the same:
Both human and divine.

CHORUS:
In Your love I’m drawn,
To You I belong;
I am not my own, Lord,
I’m Yours alone.
By Your love I’m drawn,
In Your name I’m charmed,
And Your Person captured me,
For I’ve been kissed by Thee.

4. Lord, in this close sweet fellowship,
Lord, be with me so intimate,
So personal and affectionate;
A sweet relationship.

Lord, daily change my inward being
Lord, all my heart possessing
In all my being—transforming
To be Your bride and queen.

CHORUS: 
In Your love I’m drawn,
To You I belong;
I am not my own, Lord,
I’m Yours alone.
By Your love I’m drawn,
In Your name I’m charmed,
And Your Person captured me,
For I’ve been kissed by Thee.
