I could write a love song Tell You what I think You wanna hear But it wouldn't be good enough, no Yea I could try so hard To give it everything I've got But I'm not ever gonna measure up
[Chorus] All I can do is thank You For this life I never deserved Wanna thank You for the grace I know I don't have to earn You love me, You love me Your mercy is proof All I can do is say thank You All I can do is say thank You
It would have been easy But I'm glad You never walked away Cause Your love runs deep for me And I see this beautiful world And it brings tears in my eyes And I think it's beautiful to be free
[Chorus]
(Thank You) For hope, for love, for all the ways You move (You) For everything You do (You) What else can I say but thank You Thank You
I could write a love song Tell You what I think You wanna hear But it wouldn't be good enough
[Chorus]
All I can do, all I can do, all I can do Is say thank You All I can do, all I can do, all I can do Is say thank You
In my own little world it hardly ever rains
I've never gone hungry, always felt safe
I got some money in my pocket, shoes on my feet
In my own little world: population -- me
I try to stay awake during Sunday morning church
I throw a twenty in the plate but I never give 'til it hurts
And I turn off the news when I don't like what I see
It's easy to do when its population -- me
What if there's a bigger picture?
What if I'm missing out?
What if there's a greater purpose?
I could be living right now
Outside my own little world
Stopped till the red light, looked out my window
I saw a cardboard sign said, "Help this homeless widow"
And just above that sign was the face of a human
I thought to myself, "God, what have I been doing?"
So I rolled down the window and I looked her in the eye
Oh, how many times have I just passed her by?
I gave her some money then I drove on through
And my own little world reached population two
What if there's a bigger picture?
What if I'm missing out?
What if there's a greater purpose?
I could be living right now
Outside my own little world, ooh, my own little world, ooh
Father, break my heart for what breaks Yours
Give me open hands and open doors
Put Your light in my eyes and let me see
That my own little world is not about me
What if there's a bigger picture?
What if I'm missing out?
What if there's a greater purpose?
That I could be living right now
I don't wanna miss what matters
I wanna be reaching out
Show me the greater purpose
So I can start living right now
Outside my own little world, my own little world, my own little world
What could I do to leave a legacy?
How can I speak with authority
When I can not see You, I can not see You
How can I know the dreams You have for me?
How can I believe beyond what I have seen?
When I can hear You, I can not feel You now
No, no, no
[Chorus:]
You're my revival song, You start where I belong
On my knees, on my knees
When I am weak or strong You meet me here
When I'm on my knees, on my knees
Oh, it starts with me
Why do I try to work outside of You?
Knocking down doors I should be going through
But I'm so tired, I'm so tired
You take my burdens off of my shoulders
You break the lies that hold me back
I'm not sure enough
I really wanna change the world
I really wanna sing Your song
But I know revival's got to start with me
I really wanna change the world
I really wanna sing Your song
But I know revival's got to start with me
Must see! On a journey to examine faith. Why does God let bad things happen to good people? If God is good and he is God of love and he is powerful enough to stop evil, pain and suffering, why doesn't he?
I cut my teeth, on the back of an old church pew
I learned to walk in the ways of light and truth
And I was told not to speak til I was spoken to
I heard it preached, what I should and I should not do
And the choir sang
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I tried to be a good boy but I ain't a boy no more
I've seen somethings that a man just can't ignore
And this world's gone see what I am standing for
I've kept my peace, I can't hold my tongue anymore
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
The squeaky wheel is always getting greased
Well, I've been sitting still
Park here on the side of the street
Always tip-toeing trying not to wake the beast
Oh but here I come
All you monsters had better run from me
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Ooh It's the time and the time is now
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
You can't buy my silence, you can't steal my voice
You can't keep me quiet, I will bring the noise
Try to beat me down, tell me to shut my mouth
But there's a time to speak and the time is now
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Woh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Hear straight from author John Ramirez about the story of how he was
trained to be the third-ranked high priest of a satanic cult (Santeria)
in New York City—casting powerful witchcraft spells and controlling
entire spiritual regions. But what started as a long spiral into the
underworld ended in a miraculous encounter with God that changed the
course of his life.
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art, Thou hast fully captured my heart; There is none in heav'n nor on earth like Thee, With Thy beauty none can compete. When Thy voice first came to my ear, Whisp'ring in my heart words most dear, All past loves and aims lost their charm for me, All my boasts so vain now appear.
Throughout all the world, who compares with Thee? Who so full of worth, who so fair and sweet? Only Thou art worthy my love to win, O Lord Jesus, how I love Thee! No more I who live, no more self-deceived, No more in the self's world indulged to be, Deep within I know You're my only love, My best love is none else but Thee!
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art, Rid all rocks that hide in my heart; Gladly I Thy bondslave of love would be, One heart, one will ever with Thee Though my heart is oft not subdued, Still Thy way alone it would choose; All I yearn for is what Thy heart desires, In Thy love alone peace I find.
Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art, Ne'er again from Thee I'd depart; Never hide Thy dear, smiling face from me. To none else I'd cling, Lord, but Thee. To Thee, Lord, my all I outpour, How Thy love my heart deeply fills, My eternal portion, most precious Lord, None but Thee I want evermore.
I'm a long-gone Waylon song on vinyl,
I'm a back row sinner at a tent revival,
But she Believes in me like she Believes her Bible,
And loves me like Jesus does.
I'm a lead foot leaning on a souped-up Chevy,
I'm a good old boy, drinking whiskey and rye on the levee,
But she carries me when my sins make me heavy,
And loves me like Jesus does.
All the crazy in my dreams,
Both my broken wings,
Every single piece of everything I am,
Yeah, she knows the man I is not,
She forgives me when I can not,
The devil, man, no, he do not stand a chance,
'Cause she loves me like Jesus does.
I always thought she'd give up on me one day,
Wash her hands of me, leave me staring down some runway,
But I thank God each night, and twice on Sunday,
That she loves me like Jesus does.
All the crazy in my dreams,
And both my broken wings,
Every single piece of who I am,
Yeah, she knows the man I is not,
She forgives me when I can not,
And the devil, man, no, he do not have a prayer,
'Cause she loves me like Jesus does.
Yes, she knows the man I is not,
She forgives me when I can not,
That devil, man, he do not stand a chance
She loves me like Jesus does.
Honestly it's time for honesty
My heart is on my sleeve
Oh will you hear me out?
I've got nothing left to give of me
I gave up everything
So there is nothing less to loose from me now
But you forgive me somehow
I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'll trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord all I've ever needed was your love.
Truth be told I made this world my home
I let it steal my soul, but now I want it back
Cause all I need is waiting
In your arms a place to hang my heart
Where I am known at last
You're the one true thing I have
I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'll trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord all I've ever needed was your love.
And I know that I was meant to be
More than just a melody
I know that You had hopes for me
I hope you still believe in me
I've chased a million things
Bright lights and empty dreams
Now here I am
Right where I thought I wanted to be
I'll trade it all right now
Leave it all and lay it down
To get back to where I belong
Lord all I've ever needed was your love
Lord all I've needed was Your love
There is a lot of pain in this world and there is a lot of hatred. There is a lot of hurt. What do I believe? Where is my hope? Jesus is the hope. Because of him there is a future. There is life after death. But we have got to know Jesus Christ in order to make it there. Do you know Jesus?
Darkness, it can only last so long
Then sunshine brings a new day
Your shackles, they will fall to the ground
Do not be afraid
Don't be afraid for I'm with you
Do not fear for I won't let you fall
So come to me with your burdens heavy
Do not be afraid
Fear, ain't nothing but liar
When doubt comes knocking at your door
On your knees, you'll find peace and
You don't need to be afraid

Do not fear, I won't let you fall
So come to me with your burdens heavy
Do not be afraid

So come to me
And I'll guarantee
You will never be alone

Do not fear, I won't let you fall
So come to me with your burdens heavy
Do not be afraid
Do not be afraid
Do not be afraid
Well I do not know everything
And I do not have all the answers
But God knows just what I need
And He keeps on showing me
Through all the madness
It comes down to this -
You can have money, and cool friends,
A ring on your left hand
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
you do not have love
And you can have a fast car, a mansion,
And everyone's attention
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
You do not have love
You do not have love
yeah yeah
yeah yeah
You do not have love
yeah yeah
We're all made in the image of God
But all this baggage that we carry
Hides who we really are
A picture of His love, designed to shine like gold
So no matter where you go -
You can have money, and cool friends,
A ring on your left hand
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
you do not have love
And you can have a fast car, a mansion,
And everyone's attention
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
You do not have love
You do not have love
Love is never selfish
Love's never vain (you do not have love)
Love does not criticize
Love does not blame (you do not have love)
From the beginning through every age (you do not have love)
Love is the one thing that's never gonna change
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
ohhhhhhhhh
You can have money, and cool friends,
A ring on your left hand
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
you do not have love
And you can have a fast car, a mansion,
And everyone's attention
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love,
You do not have love
Oooh, you can have money
Ohhh-ohhh-ohhh-oh
But it's never gonna be, never gonna be enough, enough
And you can have a fast car, a mansion,
And everyone's attention
But it's never gonna be enough if you do not have love (no!)
You do not have love (no!)
You do not have love.
yeah yeah
yeah yeah
Y-y-you do not have love
yeah yeah
Yeah you got to, got to have love
So many days I listen to the voice inside my head
I never thought that I'd be someone who could be misled
I wanted the mirror to show me something I could not see
I needed Explanations for expectations I could never reach
I know I'm not the only one who's ever cried for help
And Jesus did for me what I could not do myself
He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He Healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
(Looking through my Father's eyes)
From what I see it looks like you do not like yourself too much
When I hear you talk it sounds like you just feel like giving up
I know it's hard to see through what this world will tell you
'Cause misconceptions and false reflections will never be the truth
Just know I'm not the only one who's ever cried for help
Jesus loves you in ways that you can not love yourself
He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He Healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
I can see your freedom coming
You'll be a slave to nothing
When you see through my Father's eyes
He changed my life, I'm changing my mind
He Healed all that was broken inside
I'm loving what I can see with His spirit alive in me
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
I can see your freedom coming
(I can see coming your freedom)
You'll be a slave to nothing
(You'll be a slave to nothing)
I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes
(I'm finding beauty for the first time
Looking through my Father's eyes)
No one knows the hour. No one knows the day. Jesus is coming soon. All creation trembles, longing for the day. Jesus is coming soon There will be judgment. There will be mercy On that terrible day Leaders will bow down. Kingdoms will fall down. Have you felt your world begin to shake? Hear the sound of the Lion of Judah See the fire and the fear in the enemy's camp From the sound of the lion of Judah roaring again There's a new generation arising A nameless, faceless, placeless tribe All they fear is the fear of the Lord All they hear is the Lion of Judah All I saw were bones breaking in the darkness Then I walked into the light There I saw an army coming from the river With five stones ready to fight
Mommy, I hear the baby crying
Help me, are the words
she's implying
Where've I been while my world has been dying
Lord, teach me how to pray
Not my will or my plans or
the way I want it
I'm so tired of my hands in the way
So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today
Lord teach me how to pray
Daddy, I can hear Jesus crying
Help me, are the words
He's implying
Am I sleeping while my Savior
is dying
Lord, teach me how to pray
Not my will or my plans or
the way I want it
I'm so tired of my hands in the way
So reveal to these eyes the true heart of my Father, today
Lord teach me how to pray
So I'll keep asking, for Your kingdom to come
Looking, for Your will to be done
For every nation, tribe,
and every tongue
Lord, teach me how to pray
Who spoke the Earth and sky to form
Who sets the sun and calls the dawn
Who breathed me out of dust to life
With the will to trust or run and hide
I will stay by me should the world fold
Lift up Your name as the darkness falls
I will wait and hold fast to Your word
Heart on Your heart and my eyes on You
Who loved me through my rebel way
Who chose to carry all my shame
Who breaths in me with endless life
The king of glory Jesus Christ
I will stay by me should the world fold
Lift up Your name as the darkness falls
I will wait and hold fast to Your word
Heart on Your heart and my eyes on You
God of wonder and God of grace
Let my soul always stand to praise You
Fix my eyes on Your perfect way
And I'll never look back
I will stay by me should the world fold
Lift up Your name as the darkness falls
I will wait and hold fast to Your word
Heart on Your heart and my eyes on You
Who lifts the poor and heals the blind
Who trampled death for all mankind
Who stands for all with arms stretched wide
Jesus Christ my King forever
You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In deep oceans
My faith will stand
And I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Your grace abounds in the deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You've never failed and will not start now
So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior
[x6]
I will call upon Your Name
Keep my eyes above the waves
My soul will rest in Your embrace
I am Yours and You are mine

I have this hope
As an anchor for my soul
Through every storm
I will hold to You
With endless love
All my fear is swept away
in everything
I will trust in You

You gave everything to save the world You love
And this hope is an anchor for my soul
Our God will stand
Unshakeable

You who was and is to come
Your promise sure
You will not let go

And I'll look to the cross
As my failure is lost
In the light of Your glorious grace

When the world caves in
Still my hope will cling to Your promise

Do Not Stand At My Grave And Weep performed by Tom Read. Directed by William Ng.
This song came from the poem "Do not stand at my grave and weep" from Mary Elizabeth Frye. Such a cool song with a wonderful meaning. Jesus is the resurrection so life won't stop in the grave.
Chorus
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there, no I do not sleep
Do not stand at my grave and cry
I am not there, no I am alive
Verse 1
I am a thousand winds that blow
I am the diamond glints on snow
I am the sun on ripened grain
I am the gentle Autumn rain
Verse 2
I am a quiet morning hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
I am the gentle bird in flight
I am the star that shines at night
Chorus Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, no I do not sleep Do not stand at my grave and cry I am not there, no I am alive Verse 1 I am a thousand winds that blow I am the diamond glints on snow I am the sun on ripened grain I am the gentle Autumn rain Verse 2 I am a quiet morning hush I am the swift uplifting rush I am the gentle bird in flight I am the star that shines at night
Jamie Grace has been diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome at the age of 11. she explains that "I learned early on that Tourette's is not life-threatening, but it is life-altering." In my young life I learned that every day can begin worshiping my creator."
Jamie
Grace’s latest song "Beautiful Day," off her yet to be titled upcoming
album, is more than just a fun, catchy tune. "It has a message saying
that in spite of what we're going through, every day is a good and an
incredible gift because God made it.
Wake up and smile cause it's been awhile
It's been like a whole day since I stopped so You could hold me
This child awaits, strong in the faith
Lord you are the refuge that I can not wait to get to
'Cause I can not let a day go
Can not let a day go by
Without thanking you for the joy that you bring to my life
And ooh there's something 'bout the way Your sun shines on my face
It's a love so true, I could never get enough of You
This feeling can not be wrong, I'm about to get my worship on
Take me away, It's a beautiful day
When trouble seems to rain on my dreams
It's not a big, not a big deal, Let it wash all the bugs off my windshield
'Cause You're showing me in You I'm free
And You're still the refuge that I've just got to get to
So I will not let a day go
Will not let a day go by
So put the drop-top down, turn it up, I'm ready to fly
And ooh there's something 'bout the way Your sun shines on my face
It's a love so true, I could never get enough of You
This feeling can not be wrong, I'm about to get my worship on
Take me away, It's a beautiful day
I've got no need to worry, I've got no room for doubt
No matter what's coming at me, You'll always be the beautiful I sing about
There is not no limitations to Your amazing grace
And there's something 'bout the way Your love shines on my face
Oh no I could never get enough of You
This feeling can not be wrong, I'm about to get my worship on
I'm gonna sing a brand new song, Yeah I'm about to get my worship on
Take me away on this beautiful day
