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

(Us)
D A
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
Bm F#m
Which tells the world that I’m okay,
G D
That I am strong and nothing in
Em A
My life can drag me down today,
D A
Beneath this mask hides loneliness,
Bm F#m
And questions: what is life all for?
G D
And worries and anxieties
Em A D
Like rain from heaven, pour and pour.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
Just come to Me, pour out and call,
The feeling of your weaknesses
I’m touched with—yet I conquered all.
As Spirit in your spirit I’m
Contactable, available,
I’ll make more home within your heart,
And heal by life your turbid soul.”

(Us)
Beneath this mask—this smile I wear—
I am a child longing for
A home where I feel safe and loved,
A people I can call my own,
Beneath this mask—a cry for help,
I’m drifting on a stormy sea,
I’m tossed about from wave to wave,
With no direction how to be.

(Christ)
“Why do you struggle on your own?
I’ll be your Good Samaritan,
I’ll pour the oil and the wine,
I’ll lead you to your home, the inn,
The household of the faith is where,
Your turbid soul will find true rest,
And I too find My resting place,
My Body, where I’m manifest."

Why Do You Struggle?

A Person of Life

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

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.
