The Lord Jesus is the most precious Person! He is drawing and attracting us by His immense beauty. We need to know Him more and more! 
Oh Lord Jesus, I love You!

Oh Lord Jesus, I love You for You are so precious.
Each time I call on Your name I get filled with Your riches.
Your life and unending joy,
As my all-inclusive supply.
Keep saving me by dispensing Yourself into me!

Look for the light and you'll know I'm home

In the dawn of first light
The sun dance of daylight
Would you wait for me?

As the days dance wildly
And the winds bring memories
Spinning round my head
Would you wait for me?
Would you wait for me?

To come home
Look for the light and you'll know I'm home
To come home
To come home
Look for the light and you'll know I'm home
You'll see by the light when I am home

In the fading twilight
Where the days drift by
Would you wait for me?

Look for the light and you'll know I'm home

Wait for Me

1
Just one touch as He moves along,
Pushed and pressed by the jostling throng,
Just one touch and the weak was strong,
  Cured by the Healer divine.
 	Just one touch as He passes by,
He will list to the faintest cry.
Come and be cured while the Lord is nigh,
    Christ is the Healer divine.
2
Just one touch! and He makes me whole,
Speaks sweet peace to my sin-sick soul,
At His feet all my burdens roll,
  Cured by the Healer divine.
3
Just one touch! and the work is done,
I am cured by the blessed Son,
I will sing while the ages run,
  Cured by the Healer divine.
4
Just one touch! and He turns to me,
O the love in His eyes I see!
I am His for He hears my plea,
  Cured by the Healer divine.
5
Just one touch! by His mighty power
He can heal thee this very hour,
Thou canst hear though the tempests low’r,
  Cured by the Healer divine.

H-759 Just One Touch (New Tune)

In 2020, I presented W.E. (Bill) Bartolotto with a trilogy of incomplete songs asking if he would be interested in helping me finish them.   Bill was quite enthusiastic and so we began the process of collaboration which I am sure most Soundclouders are familiar with.   2 years later we have managed to come up with this track..
	The concept is based on Jack Vance's 1963 novel “The Eyes of the Overworld” and is, more or less, a discussion, partly of the nature of reality, and partly, of the reality of human nature.
	While the concept and music is mine, the lyrics are the combined effort of the two of us.

Full credit belongs to:
   	W. E. Bartolotta:  	vocals
	Ken Minty:  		vocals and all instruments except percussion
	Mike Konopka:	percussion, sound engineer, arrangement, mix and master

Please check out Bill's SC site at  soundcloud.com/user-233624083

Lyrics:

Part 1:   Smolod Town
	where shall the overworld be found
	where shall all our dreams and promises touch ground
	even in our most wistful hour
	it is not wise to underestimate the power
	of gods that strive to be alive

	in Smolod town where marsh and tundra mix
	the huts are birds’ nests made of mud and sticks
	yet the folk walk proud, heads high, voices loud
	in Smolod town

	the village is the abode of squalid gnomes
	as unlovely, graceless as their homes
	yet fixed upon their eyes violet cusps disguise
	their poverty

	the vile stench of filth is everywhere
	it permeates the dark and clammy air
	yet the gnomes know not these spoils
	they conduct themselves as royals
	in Smolod town

 	
Part 2:   The Prince
	when the old one dies
		I shall wear the eyes of the overworld
	I’ll become a king
		I’ll have everything in the overworld
	on lotus fruit I’ll dine
		and drink the nectar wine of the overworld
	I’ll live just as I please in luxury and ease
		staring through the eyes of the overworld

	the lenses do not blind
		they project the mind to the overworld
	though my life’s been poor
		my senses know the lure of the overworld
	exquisitely divine, 
		all pleasures shall be mine in the overworld
	the quintessential scheme of paradise I’ll dream
		staring through the eyes of the overworld

	I’ve worked the barren soil,
		for fourty years I’ve toiled in the normal world
	thus I’ve earned the right
		to taste all the delights of the overworld
	I want to die like this:
		by surfeit of bliss in the overworld
	a prince ‘mongst princely peers to spend my final years
		staring through the eyes of the overworld


Part 3:   Wistful Hours
	where shall the overworld be found
	where do all our dreams and promises touch ground
	even in our most wistful hour
	it isn't wise to underestimate the power
	of gods that strive to be alive

	do you believe
	do you ponder and seek
	do you work endlessly
	to see through the overworld’s eyes

Eyes of the Overworld

Eyes Of The Overworld

You love conversation on a lazy afternoon
Science Fiction movies, 1960's folk and breaking the rules
You love to keep me waiting, love the way I keep it cool
And you love the girls who don't love you
So I'll make sure I never do

I love the nights we spend out hiding in your room
Wake up in the morning sharing stories, where we travelled to
And you never seem to be there, but I never tell the truth
Cuz you love the girls who don't love you
So I'll make sure I never do

You're a captor by nature, I'm a closet confessor
And I know better than to believe I might change your mind
"Always and forever," you like the idea
But you love the way I don't love you
So I'll make sure
I'll make sure

I Never Do (voice memo July 2021)

I warmly thank Phil and Debra for this collaboration.
Like most people, I have heard this song many times, read the poem.
 But now I understand the depth of this poem, so sore and fragile. 
Thank you from heart Debra and Phil,  two wonderful musicians. A JOY.

If you need one poem for regrets in your life, then it must be this poem. 

Down by the Salley Gardens was written by W B Yeats (1889), who is generally known as one of Ireland’s greatest poets.

    Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meet;
    She passed the salley gardens with little snow-white feet.
    She bid me take love easy, as the leaves grow on the tree;
    But I, being young and foolish, with her would not agree.

    In a field by the river my love and I did stand,
    And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow-white hand.
    She bid me take life easy, as the grass grows on the weirs;
    But I was young and foolish, and now am full of tears.

 Yeats published the poem in his collection, The Wanderings of Oisin and Other Poems in 1889. 
In a note on the poem, he said that he was trying to reconstruct an old song he had heard being sung by a woman in the village of Ballisodare in Sligo.

Down by the Salley Gardens was written as a poem and remained that way until 1909 when Herbert Hughes set it to music using the old Irish melody, The Maids of Mourne Shore.

14 The Nazarite Song

Break Thou the Bread of Life(Hymn 806)

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

1. Begin the day with God; He really wants you to,
Hoping you’ll let Him come and spend the day with you.
Rise up! Don’t wait! You’ll miss the Son.
It’s the best part of the day.
His taste is sweet to all who meet
Him in the morning when He’s fresh and new.

2. Begin the day with God; He’s waiting there for you.
Morning by morning come; His mercy is brand new.
Rise up! Don’t wait! You’ll miss the Son.
He has so much for you.
Enjoy your portion and your part
Until the Morning Star rises in your heart.

3. Begin the day with God; He needs His people to
Be those who love Him best—get up with this in view.
Rise up! Don’t wait! You’ll miss the Son.
He needs some to watch and pray.
Spend time with Him and let Him in-
To your heart so He can have His way.

Begin the Day with God

O Home In The Church

Chords: https://songbase.life/6

Hear the Lord, He’s calling onward;
Heed His Word, His cry is upward.
Each day we climb a little higher;
To carry on we need to take a deeper breath.

See the Lord is not far from you;
He will not only bear it with you.
No need to struggle any longer;
He wants to be the very one to take your place.

All we need is in the breath—
Love and light, peace and rest.
Count the cost, pay the price,
Receive the gift of eternal life.
Call, “Oh Lord!” Let Him in and just love Him.

The ordinary’s what He’s after;
However small to Him, it matters.
To be your all He’s more than willing;
Only requires us to lean on the Beloved.

Day by day we grow into Christ,
Permeated at the speed of life.
Get more God, be more human;
Let His light shine from within.
More of Him, we decrease—
This our blessed destiny,
To reign in life as His Bride; we just love Him.

Just Love Him

Yours And Mine

Written by Jo (orginal: https://soundcloud.com/jem1293/that-ones-majesty)

1. I grew up hearing of You
By the hearing of the--
I grew up hearing of You
By the hearing of the ear,
But now my eye has seen you;
It’s settled, this is it:
I’ve touched reality.

2. You’ve become lovely to me,
So beautiful and--
You’ve become lovely to me,
So beautiful and sweet.
I’m seeing that One’s majesty.
I never did believe
You could win me like this.

3. I am so lovely to You,
Beautiful and--
I am so lovely to You,
Beautiful and sweet.
Though I do not know why
You fell in love with me,
How I ravished Your heart.

4. This is our story of love:
You were all alone;
I, too, needed Someone
To save me from a life
Of sin and misery
Into mutuality:
The romance divine.

Classic Hymn Medley (with Rachel)

What Shall I Give Thee Master Hymn 446 (Piano)

Christ Liveth In Me

We're Gathered here, O Lord as Thy One Body (Piano + Cello)

I Come to Thee Dear Lord (Piano)

What about my sinful past?
And my conscience has no rest.
Deep within I feel the pain.
I’m condemned from all my guilty stains.

O my life of misery,
In this world of vanity,
As I searched for happiness,
My reward I received just emptiness.

God was far away from me,
Great and highest One is He.
Yet You took on humanity.
You came for me,
Hung on a tree,
Bled there to die for me.

chorus
That’s why I love Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.
That’s why I love Him.
That’s why I treasure Him.
That’s why I give my life and all to Him.



That's Why I Love Him (Instrumental)

Loved with everlasting love,
Led by grace that love to know;
Spirit, breathing from above,
Thou hast taught me it is so.
Oh, this full and perfect peace!
Oh, this transport all divine!
In a love which cannot cease.
I am His, and He is mine.

Heaven above is softer blue,
Earth around is sweeter green;
Something lives in every hue
Christless eyes have never seen:
Birds with gladder songs o'erflow,
Flow'rs with deeper beauties shine,
Since I know, as now I know,
I am His, and He is mine.

Things that once were wild alarms
Cannot now disturb my rest;
Closed in everlasting arms,
Pillowed on the loving breast.
Oh, to lie forever here,
Doubt and care and self resign,
While He whispers in my ear,
I am His, and He is mine.

His forever, only His:
Who the Lord and me shall part?
Ah, with what a rest of bliss
Christ can fill the loving heart.
Heaven and earth may fade and flee,
Firstborn light in gloom decline;
But, while God and I shall be,
I am His, and He is mine.

Loved With Everlasting Love (Piano)
