w/ the Ball brothers

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!

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!

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

This hymn was written as an encouragement to the saints in Papua New Guinea.

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

Lord, thank You that it’s normal to love You,
And thank You that it’s normal to need You,
Another day I ask You to make Your home in my heart,
Your Spirit in my spirit’s dispensing,
Although sometimes the growth I’m not sensing,
I’m happy just to give You my open vessel in faith.

So Lord today, in the normal ways,
By the dawning of Your face,
Don’t leave any part of my will and heart,
Separated from your grace.
Give Yourself to me,
May Your Spirit lead,
Keep me opening,
All the little things,
And so lovingly, You can do all things spontaneously!

Open Vessel

1. He loved them to the uttermost, 
Those whom the Father chose;
Jesus, our shepherd, friend and Lord,
After the meal, He rose;
He laid aside divinity,
Then girded with humility,
He washed and wiped
this dirty world away.

    Filled with His freshness,
    power and presence,
    Having been washed and filled
    we love as Christ loved us;
    Spiritual energy,
    daily revival,
    Loving the brothers now
    as Christ has first loved us.

2. He loved them to the uttermost,
He washed His loved ones feet,
Produced this pleasant atmosphere
Where all the saints can meet.
His fragrant love has filled the room,
The service of our dear Bridegroom,
Jesus the Savior purifies His bride.

3. He loved them to the uttermost,
His Spirit was poured out;
His living word enlightens us,
Removes all fear and doubt;
The inner law of life dispensed,
Our heart filled in the deepest sense,
Maintains our love
for Jesus and His own.

He Loved Them to the Uttermost

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

            D
  My God is joy!
             A
  His joy my strength.
              Bm
  He fills my days
                 G
  With ceaseless praise.
     A      D
  My God is love,
          A
  Unspeakable,
           Bm
  So wonderful,
             G               A           D
  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!

Jesus, Fountain of My Days (525 New Tune)

Strings and piano by Chords of a Man. Vocal contributions from Lydia and Priscilla. This song was written by some brothers at the Northeast College Training. Lyrics:
Do you love Me?
John 21:15-17
C G C
1. After breakfast on the seashore
Dm7 C G
Jesus set about to restore
Dm7 C G
Peter's love that he would henceforth
Not trust himself.
C G C
He committed some big failures-
Dm7 C G
Three times denying the Savior,
Dm7 C G
Then leading others to waver,
G G7
Yet, Jesus said…

Am F C G
Do you love Me...? ... Feed My lambs.
Am F C G
Do you love Me? ... Shepherd My...sheep.
F E7 Am F
Do ... you ... love ... Me? …
C G F C
Then give My sheep something to eat.

2. We, like Peter, all have stumbled.
Such defeats make our strength crumble.
Our once proud hearts become humbled,
We are so low.
In these moments the Lord comes in
Seeking our love and affection.
As we listen we can hear Him
Saying to us...

Chorus

3. Currently the Lord is hindered
Because of the lack of shepherds
Who dispense the milk of the Word
To the lost sheep. 
He needs man's cooperation
To let Him shepherd from within.
Will you be one who is open
And say to Him...
Lord I love You- I'll feed Your lambs.
Lord I love You- I'll shepherd Your sheep.
Lord ... I ... love ... You. 
I'll give Your sheep something to eat.

Do You Love Me? (with Priscilla)

Make Me One with You (lyrics and music by E.G.)

(Written by Jacob Freeman)

Oh Lord, Your Name is Sweet! And from it flows
A river full of peace and light and life,
As on it, I cast all my anxious woes. 
I need not think! I only need to call.
In this way, I am less, and You are all. 

It is so rich to call and to receive—
To soak Your Spirit into all my being. 
As I absorb Your riches, I believe
And You are real to me. Oh, but to know
You, dearest Lord, and have a deeper flow!

You are a treasury of endless wealth,
So readily accessible to me!
How great! These riches constitute my health,
My great supply, my strength, my life, my all—
So effortless! I only need to call.

Continually soften all my heart
To cling to You and to receive Your Word.
Lord, make Your home in every inward part,
And, as I call, make deeper every root
That I might grow and bear You richest fruit.

I Only Need To Call (Lyrics by Jacob)
