I WILL WAIT...

JASON UPTON 

Romans 5:1-5

Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand.
And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.
And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us.

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the sun in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising
(Repeat)

There's a wall that stands in front of me
That I know I just can't climb
And like an eagle you will carry me
It's just a matter of the time

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

Evil armies all around me

I believe in the word that promises me
So I will wait another day

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising
(Repeat)

I will wait for you
Oh I will wait for you
Oh the doubt may try to come in
The disillusions may try to come in

I believe oh Lord (x3)
In the word that you promised (x3)
I believe it will not end
I believe it will not go

I will wait for you, Jesus
You're the son in my horizon
All my hopes in you, Jesus
I can see you now arising

Please take the time to enJOY "I AM" (at least the song shared below) in the last post of "Praying the Names of Jesus": I AM. You truly will be blessed! I know I am and the great "I AM" is, as we delight in Him through our WORSHIP and HIS WORD, HIS WAY! He is all this and so much more... enter His sweet Presence!

MY MASTER

We're joining

Amy @ Signs, Miracles and Wonders

This past week in "PRAYING THE NAMES OF JESUS" with Ann Spangler, that we are looking at here at THE POWER OF YOUR LOVE each week, we examined the scriptures and the role of SERVANT. 


This song by Christy Nockels just seems to go well with this. Jesus was the perfect example of how to be a servant. Now we should serve Him as Master.

He is MY MASTER!

Why not make Him yours if He isn't?

HUNGRY (Falling on My Knees)

Kathryn ScottHUNGRY"Falling on My Knees"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLz36m8Mw2g


Lord, I am hungry... hungry for more of You and seeking You & Your will... but there are many in the world who are hungry for more... I bow my head and repent, but giving thanks as well... for all I have that You have provided. Just knowing You causes me to fall on my knees, in awe of Your grace, Your mercy, Your love and the privilege of knowing You as Lord & Savior... I fall in love with You more and more each time I'm in Your Presence... I love You, thank You for loving me...

Since this Sunday, May 23rd, is Global Day of Prayer and we have looked at Jesus as our Priest & Prophet for this week... "falling on my knees" just seems to be where I am and we should be... please visit our team's Lighthouse of Prayer and pray the prayers from the Global Day of Prayer team that we have been sharing over there and even if your church is not joining in this prayer day, you can...

WHERE DO YOU HIDE YOUR HEART?

This is so ME!!!

I run so many times, 
but those who know me well 
say,
"I wear my heart on my sleeve"

I run to the 'altar' at church, 
because now I know that as I try to hold it back 
 it will still pour out of my heart, 
then everyone knows

"WHERE DO YOU HIDE YOUR HEART?"

AMY GRANT

I call you on the phone

But you're not at home

Where do you go when you're hurting

Hear you're down again

Lost the will to win

Why do you run when you're hurting

Why do you hide your heart

Where do you hide your heart

Leave the hurt behind you

Love has found you now

And He'll never let you go

Oh you've got to know

That Jesus will not leave us now

So leave your cares behind

Oh leave your cares behind

When you're feeling low

Let me let you know

That we're all sad sometimes

Jesus carries you

He's gonna see you through

He'll never leave cause he loves you

Oh where do you hide your heart

Tell me where do you hide your heart

Leave the hurt behind you

Love has found you now

And He'll never let you go

Oh you've got to know

That Jesus will not leave us now

He'll never let you go

He'll never let you go

Where do you hide your heart

Where do you hide your heart

Leave the hurt behind you

Love has found you now

And He'll never let you go

Oh you've got to know

That Jesus will not leave us now

He'll never let you go

He'll never let you go

(Amy Grant & Michael W. Smith)

BETTER THAN A HALLELUIAH

AMY GRANT

"Better Than a Hallelujah"from"Somewhere Down the Road" CD

God loves a lullaby
In a mothers tears in the dead of night
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.
God loves the drunkards cry,
The soldiers plea not to let him die
Better than a Hallelujah sometimes.

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah.

The woman holding on for life,
The dying man giving up the fight
Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes
The tears of shame for what's been done,
The silence when the words won't come

Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes.

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah
Better than a church bell ringing,
Better than a choir singing out,singing out.

We pour out our miseries
God just hears a melody
Beautiful the mess we are
The honest cries of breaking hearts
Are better than a Hallelujah

Better than a church bell ringing
better than a choir singin' loud
singin' loud
Repeat Chorus

..."The first single from the new project, “Better Than a Hallelujah,” penned by Chapin Hartford and Sarah Hart, is Grant’s first new radio single since “Simple Things” in 2003. When Amy’s manager, Jennifer Cooke, emailed her the song, she knew she had to record it. “The honesty of it, the vulnerability of the lyrics, the beautiful melody, and that the song found me right where I was in my own journey was incredibly powerful,” says Grant, admitting the song resonated strongly with her as she dealt with the death of her longtime friend musician Ruth McGinnis. “The song is just so poignant and redemptive. In the lyric there is no religious code or lingo going on and the message is true, it’s good news. I love every scenario it’s painting.”... " from Amy Grant's site

From Amy's BLOG:

"...Next up for Amy will be shooting a video for “Better Than A Hallelujah” as well as continuing to promote the new album. However, she is also taking some well deserved time off to stick close to home for Jenny Gills wedding as well as Mother’s Day with her mom and kids, and the end of the school year for Sarah and Corrina. She is flying to Tucson in the middle of the month to partake in her dear friend Cindy Parseghian’s “One More Victory, Ara” benefit for Neimann Pick Type C. If you aren’t familiar with Cindy’s story, I urge you to visit www.parseghian.org to learn more about this tender yet brave family.

In addition to her new album, Amy is also continuing to help spread the word about the “She Colors My Day” initiative for the Woman’s Cancer Research Fund and Susan G. Koman organization. If you haven’t already purchased your copy of the song, you should consider checking it out on itunes. All artist and publishing proceeds are being donated to cancer research.

And speaking of good causes, Amy has taped a Mother’s Day PSA for The American Red Cross that will be seen on the internet and television as we approach this sweet holiday honoring our mom’s. If you don’t know what to do for your mom this year, consider making a financial or blood donation to the American Red Cross in her honor. Truly it is the gift that keeps on giving..."
