1
Once a sinner, now I’m saved;
Still, I lack in many ways.
Lord, it feels like nothing has changed.
Patient, yet I cannot wait;
Loving, yet not void of hate;
Lord, I don’t want to stay the same.
Thought I had to come up with my own solutions,
But You’re showing me the way to take.

Chorus:
I don’t have to know my complications;
I just need to grow in the Lord,
Enjoying Him day by day,
Pursuing Him with the saints,
Absorbing Him just as a branch would in the vine.
There’s no need for me to struggle and to strive;
Just to grow in life.

2
Eating Your word when I wake,
Nothing should get in the way;
Calling ceaselessly on Your name.
Meeting You with all the saints,
Feasting on Your boundless grace,
Praising as I call it a day.
I’ve let go of all religious regulations;
Found a new, enjoying way to take.

Just to Grow in Life - WJ, TS

That’s why we pretend
(Mark Irving Anderson)

…I almost slipped and said, “my lover”
Not my confidante or friend
I’ve been careful, for so long now
Tell me, why do we pretend…

…That people are the same here 
And we’re people after all
Like vibrant colors in the wind 
Chasing autumn leaves that fall…

[Chorus]
...But, somewhere in the nighttime 
There’s someone holding on 
To those voices of the past
Voices telling him he’s wrong
So, trusting in his heart light
Makes it hard to find his way
Maybe that’s why he pretends 
So, he won’t fade away…

…It’s hard to stand there silent 
But it’s harder to defend
When your courage doesn’t hold up
Maybe that’s why we pretend…

…That being equal carries meaning
And I would fight with you
Or that I’d never leave you out
The way that others do…

[Chorus]
...Cause, somewhere in the nighttime
There’s someone holding on 
To those voices of the past
Voices telling her she’s wrong
So, just trusting in her heartline 
Makes it hard to find her way
Maybe that’s why she pretends
So, she won’t fade away…

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

[Chorus]
...Somewhere in the nighttime
Somebody’s holding on 
To those voices from the past
Voices telling us we’re wrong
So, just trusting in his heart light
Makes it hard to find a way
Maybe that’s why we pretend 
So, we don’t fade away…

…Maybe that’s why we pretend 
So, we don’t fade away…

That’s why we pretend

Somewhere only we know.m4a

oh dear Lord, have Your way

Until We All Arrive

Until We All Arrive Medley

Consecrated One (with Zach Miner)

1
	My wandering days grew increasingly empty
As I searched for the way,
Just to fill this gap inside me—
Found my seeking vain.
Though all this dark earth would convince me life’s worthwhile,
Inside all my mirth
Was a cry for something real.
Don’t you lie to me, world!
  	For my heart tells me different
When I hear of contentment
Deep within a lack knew better
  Why not be honest, world.
2
	A flood of strong doubt as I heard the old story
Of a man they called Lord;
Yet my heart ne’er ceased to wonder,
Is He really Lord?
A search in His Word found my hardened heart softened,
And earth’s vanities faded.
In the brightness of His presence
Jesus came into me.
  	Now we’re always together
Growing into God’s fullness.
O Lord Jesus, how I love You!
  You brought life into me.

My Wandering Days

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“.

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

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."

Rise Up, My Love

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?

A Man's Steps are Ordered by Jehovah (Prov. 20:24, 27; 1 Cor. 2:11a)
