Find me in the river
Find me on my knees
I've walked against the water
Now I'm waiting if you please

We've longed to see the roses.
But never felt the thorns
And bought our pretty crowns
But never paid the price

Find me in the river
Find me there
Find me on my knees with my soul laid bare
Even though you're gone and I'm cracked and dry
Find me in the river, I'm waiting here

Find me in the river
Find me on my knees
I've walked against the water
Now I'm waiting if you please

We didn't count on suffering
We didn't count on pain
But if the blessing's in the valley
Then in the river I will wait </Font>

My favorite from 'Jars of Clay'

Rain rain on my face
It hasn't stopped
Raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become
One with the mud

Chorus:
But if I can't swim after 40 days
And my mind is crushed
By the crashing waves
Lift me up so high
That I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up when I'm falling
Lift me up I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up I need you to hold me
Lift me up and keep me from drowning again

Down pour on my soul
Splashing in the ocean
I'm losing control
Dark sky all around
Can't feel my feet
Touching the ground

repeat chorus

Calm the storms that drench my eyes
And dry the streams still flowing
Casting down all waves of sin
And guilt that overthrow me

repeat chorus

Lift me up-when I'm falling
Lift me up-I'm weak and I'm dying
Lift me up-I need you to hold me
Lift me up-and keep me from drowning again

Hey Saphire! I so love the words to that song!

 

[Dan Murphy]

THIS IS MY FATHER’S WORLD

This is my Father’s world, and to my listening ears
All nature sings, and round me rings the music of the spheres.
This is my Father’s world: I rest me in the thought
Of rocks and trees, of skies and seas;
His hand the wonders wrought.

This is my Father’s world, the birds their carols raise,
The morning light, the lily white, declare their Maker’s praise.
This is my Father’s world: He shines in all that’s fair;
In the rustling grass I hear Him pass;
He speaks to me everywhere.

This is my Father’s world. O let me ne’er forget
That though the wrong seems oft so strong, God is the ruler yet.
This is my Father’s world: why should my heart be sad?
The Lord is King; let the heavens ring!
God reigns; let the earth be glad!

This is my Father’s world, dreaming, I see His face.
I ope my eyes, and in glad surprise cry, “The Lord is in this place.”
This is my Father’s world, from the shining courts above,
The Beloved One, His Only Son,
Came—a pledge of deathless love.

This is my Father’s world, should my heart be ever sad?
The lord is King—let the heavens ring. God reigns—let the earth be glad.
This is my Father’s world. Now closer to Heaven bound,
For dear to God is the earth Christ trod.
No place but is holy ground.

This is my Father’s world. I walk a desert lone.
In a bush ablaze to my wondering gaze God makes His glory known.
This is my Father’s world, a wanderer I may roam
Whate’er my lot, it matters not,
My heart is still at home.

I haven't heard that song in a long time Dan, thanks for posting it. My 16 year old son used to listen to music tapes before going to sleep when he was a little guy, and that was his favorite

In Memory of Shirley...

Your Everlasting Love/Bryan Duncan

I walk the straight and narrow toward Heaven,
But it's taken me high and low,
I'm losing count of the times You've forgiven
When I stumble.
With every step of faith that I've taken
I find the joy that I long to know,
Knowing You're with me
Always loving, and always faithful.

Whenever I'm hurting, You are my haven.
Whenever I falter, You are my friend.
Through all of my worry, all of my striving
You come to my rescue again and again.
And You're taking me to heaven
With Your everlasting love.

I'm in Your everlasting love!

In the face of all the good times,
When the struggle is over,
There's still nothing better than to know
That Your love is mine.
Through all my complaining,
And begging for mercy,
Still line after line,
You fill my songs with love.

Whenever I'm hurting, You are my haven.
Whenever I falter, You are my friend.
Through all of my worry, all of my striving,
You come to my rescue again and again.
And You're taking me to heaven
With Your everlasting love.

And You're taking me to heaven
With Your everlasting love.
I'm in Your everlasting love.
I'm in Your everlasting love.
Your everlasting, Your everlasting love!

Hide Me In your Heart/FFH

The Ocean is deep, the mountain so high
O Lord, You are the master of wind and tide
When I am afraid, Sweet Savior come close
To you merciful one, I lift up my soul

Hide me in your heart O Lord
Hold me in your arms
Still the wind and calm the storm
Hide me in your heart

The sorrows they fill this valley so wide
And I can't help but wonder what's on the other side
But I'll trust in you, my shelter and my friend
You know that I need this comfort again

Hide me in your heart O Lord
Hold me in your arms
Still the wind and calm the storm
Hide me in your heart

Now I come to you Jesus. To look for the place
Where I first gazed upon your face
As I enter your presence I realize your grace
And I find my rest in your embrace.

Hide me in your heart O Lord
Hold me in your arms
Still the wind and calm the storm
Hide me in your heart
