Christian Music Thread

[JC2]

Hey you guys! The other thread was locked because of it's length, so I thought I'd start another thread.

If you're interested in posting songs, scriptures, encouragement, prayer requests... please feel free to post. Everybody is always welcome!

I can't post here too often because I have little ones that keep me very very busy. But I will check in from time to time to try and share some encouragement or a song.


Oh God of mine, I’ll have no idols
Oh God of mine, come lead the way
Oh God of mine, I’m greatly humbled
This sinner’s heart You came to save

Oh God of mine through storm and trial
Oh God of mine through death and grave
Oh God of mine in resurrection
Your scars display my soul’s refrain

Oh God of mine Who holds all nations
Oh God of mine Who saves the day
Oh God of mine, Your grace sufficient
And tender mercies new by morn

Oh God of mine, forever faithful
Oh God of mine, forever stay
Oh God of mine, forever after
These eyes upon Your face will gaze

Hey this is a great idea! I can't linger now but will definitely check back in soon!

I love this song!

Redeemer:Nicole C. Mullen

Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?

and Who told the ocean you can only come this far?

and Who showed the moon where to hide 'til evening?

Whose words alone can catch a falling star?



Well I know my Redeemer lives

I know my Redeemer lives:

All of creation testifies

This life within me cry

I know my Redeemer lives, yeah.



The very same God that spins things in orbit

runs to the weary, the worn and the weak

And the same gentle hands that hold me when I'm broken

They conquered death to bring me victory



Now I know my Redeemer lives

I know my Redeemer lives

Let all creation testify

Let this life within we cry

I know my Redeemer, He lives



To take away my shame

And He lives forever, I'll proclaim

That the payment for my sin

Was the precious life He gave

But now He's alive and

There's an empty grave.



And I know my Redeemer lives

I know my Redeemer lives

Let all creation testify

Let this life within me cry

I know my Redeemer,



I know my Redeemer
I know my Redeemer lives
I know my Redeemer lives
I know that I know that I know that I know that I know my redeemer lives
Because He lives I can face tomorrow
I Know I know
He lives He lives yeah, yeah I spoke with him this morning
He lives He lives, the tomb is empty,
He lives I gotta tell everybody

My favorite Scripture:

1 Thessalonians 4

The Coming of the Lord

13Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. 14We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. 15According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. 17After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. 18Therefore encourage each other with these words.

Title: The Word

I've done every devotional
Been every place emotional
Trying to hear a new word from God
And I think it's very odd
That while I attmept to help myself
My Bible sits upon my shelf
With every promise I could ever need

CHORUS:
And the Word was
And the Word is
And the Word will be

People are getting fit for truth
Like they're buying a new tailored suit
Does it fit across the shoulders
Does it fade when it get older
We throw ideas that aren't in style
In the Salvation Army pile
And search for something more to meet our needs

CHORUS

I think it's time I rediscover
All the ground that I have covered,
Like seek ye first what a verse
We are pressed but not crushed
Perplexed but don't despair
We are persecuted but not abandoned
We are no longer slaves
We are daughters and sons
And when we are weak we are very strong
And neither death nor life nor present
Nor future nor depth nor height
Can keep us from the love of Christ
And the Word I need is the Word that was
Who put on flesh to dwell with us
In the beginning

CHORUS

Title: Jesus, You're Beautiful

Jesus, bright as the morning star
Jesus, how can I tell you how beautiful you are to me
Jesus, song that the angel sings
Jesus, dearer to my heart than anything

Sweeter than spring time
Purer than sunshine
Ever my song will be
Jesus, you're beautiful to me

Oh Lord you are so beautiful
So beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful
Jesus you're beautiful to me

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful
Jesus you're beautiful to me
Wonderful, heavenly, beautiful
Jesus you're beautiful to me

Morning star, Lord you are, beautiful
Jesus you're beautiful to me

Sweeter than spring time
Purer than sunshine
Ever my song will be
Jesus, you're beautiful

Title: You Cannot Lose My Love

You will lose your baby teeth.
At times you'll lose your faith in me.
You will lose a lot of things.
But you cannot lose my love.
You may lose your appetite.
Your guiding sense of wrong and right.
You may lose your will to fight.
But you cannot lose my love..
You will lose your confidence.
In times of trial your common sense.
You may lose your innocence.
But you cannot lose my love..
Many things can be misplaced.
Your very memories be erased.
No matter what the time or space.
You cannot lose my love..
You cannot lose.
You cannot lose.
You cannot lose my love..

The following hymn is sung at our elementary school chapel. We parents can rarely make it through with dry eyes!

Surely, the presence of the Lord is in this place,
I can feel His mighty power and His grace.
I can feel the touch of angels' wings,
I see glory in each face.
Surely, the presence of the Lord is in this place.

 

[Sehsun]

This is one of my favorite songs by Chris Tomlin:

Indescribable

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming

CHORUS:
Indescribable, uncontainable
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name
You are amazing God
All powerful, untamable
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom

(Chorus)

Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
Incomparable, unchangeable
You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same
You are amazing God
You are amazing God

 

[Otto's Doll]

Romans 8:38-39

38 And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[a] neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. 39 No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord.

For all our kiddos

I AM A PROMISE

I am a promise.
I am a possibility.
I am a promise, with a capital P.
I am a great big bundle of potentiality.
And I am trying to hear God’s voice
and I am trying to make the right choice.
I am a great big bundle of potentiality.
I am a promise.

Have a great day everyone1~

For quite some time I saw the advertisements on TV for the Songs 4 Worship CD series. I finally ordered them and they came right after the holidays. I'm impatient so rather than getting them one at a time, I had them all sent at once. It's a nice series, and I would recommend it to all.

I have always loved this song!!!! It's hard to believe that my little boy I lifted out of bed is well on his way to being the young man, he'll be 11 in July. The time has flown by oh so quickly.

Little Boy On His Knees (Cameron's Song) - Cherri Keagy

He see's me in the morning,
Lifting him out of bed.
The sun comes with little warning,
A brand new day's ahead.
To the kitchen for some breakfast,
A plate of toasted bread,
A cup of milk just as expected,
Close your eyes and bow your head.

You can thank him for anything you want to,
For the flower's and the trees
And pray,Lord Jesus, make me,
A little boy on my knees.

He's Mommy's little helper.
Learning to comb his hair.
And loves his baby sister,
Though he doesn't always share.
A quarter in the bucket,
A memory verse or two,
Although he may not know it,
He's beginning to follow you.

You can thank him for anything you want to,
For your Daddy and for me.
And pray, Lord Jesus, make me,
A little boy on my knees.

As we teach our Son to serve the Lord, in every way,
Lord the most important thing is this that we now pray,
Lord, we thank you everything you give us, but most importantly,
We pray Lord Jesus, make our Son a little boy on his knees.

Lord we thank you for everything you give us, but most importantly
We pray, Lord Jesus, make our Son,
A little boy on his knees.
We pray that someday he'll become,
A young man on his knees.

Anyone here know this song and maybe where I could find an audio copy of it. It is from one of the kids programs that comes on our local Moody station on Saturdays where they talk about animals and how they were created with all these marvelous characteristics by God. It's Unlce Bud or Dave or something along those lines.

here are the lyrics I know:

I am not desendant of monkey
Though you may be fooled at first glance
I am the work of God my creator
I am not a product of chance

I did not evolve from a tadpole
.................

 

[Hemi-mom]

Welcome all!

LegoMom3, (sounds like that should be my alternate name!), hope you can come back when you get a chance!

I love the Chris Tomlin and Nicole C. Mullen songs guys!! The scriptures are awesome too.

"Surely the Presence" is one sweet song Christineann.

Thanks for the recommendation Paul.

Jeanne! Awesome scripture! Have you heard from Sarah recently? Send her on over if you have.

Cristy, thanks for the "kiddo" songs. I love "Cameron's Song". Yes, the time flies by too quickly for sure.


Nothing But the Blood of Jesus, Matt Readman

Your blood speaks a better word
Than all the empty claims I've heard upon this earth
Speaks righteousness for me
And stands in my defense
Jesus it's Your blood

What can wash away our sins?
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash us pure as snow?
Welcomed as the friends of God
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

Your cross testifies in grace
Tells of the Father's heart to make a way for us
Now boldly we approach
Not by earthly confidence
It's only Your blood

What can wash away our sins?
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash us pure as snow?
Welcomed as the friends of God
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

We thank You for the blood
We thank You for the blood

We praise You for the blood
We praise You for the blood

Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

 

[Hemi-mom]

Signature of Divine (YAHWEH) - by Need to Breathe

Cathedrals have tried in vain to show the image of Your face
But we are, by Your design, the signature of divine
We'll always sing Your name
Forever and today
Yahweh, Yahweh
Great is Your glory when You go before me
Oh, we sing
Holy, Holy
Your ways are lovely
So high above me
Yahweh
The fortunes of kings and queens are wasted chasing what we've seen
Cause we are, by Your reprieve, the beauty framed by Your suffering
We'll always sing Your name
Forever and today
Yahweh, Yahweh
Great is Your glory when You go before me
Oh, we sing
Holy, Holy
Your ways are lovely
So high above me
Yahweh
Take me and pull me through
Cause I can't move without you
I won't leave you alone, You say
It will be okay
Yahweh, Yahweh
Great is Your glory when You go before me
Oh, we sing
Holy, Holy
Your ways are lovely
So high above me
Yahweh
Ancient of Days
Yahweh

Hi everyone! Hope you are all having a blessed day.

Newsboys - Father, Blessed Father

Will You take what we have
A sacrifice unto You
Then create clean hands
And, Lord, make our spirits new

Father, blessed Father
Lead and guide us for Your name’s sake
And keep us in the shelter of Your presence
‘til we see Your face

Let us hear what You say
Let us know Your voice and all of Your ways
Take our hands, lead us home
To the refuge that we find in You alone

All adoration
To our Lord Redeemer
To our Shepherd
Who carries us forevermore

Breathe on me
Breathe, oh, Breath of God
(Breathe, oh, Breath of Life)
Breathe on me
‘til my heart is new
Oh Lord, oh Lord
‘Til my heart is new
