Be Thou My Vision

Be Thou my vision, O Lord of my heart; Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art. Thou my best thought by day or by night, Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light. Be Thou my Wisdom, Thou my true Word; I ever with Thee, Thou with me Lord; Thou my great Father, and I Thy true son; Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one. Be Thou my battle-shield, sword for my fight; Be Thou my dignity, Thou my delight; Thou my soul's shelter, Thou my high tower: Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power. Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise, Thou mine inheritance, now and always: Thou and Thou only, first in my heart, High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art. High King of heaven, my victory won, May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heav'ns Son! Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, Still be my vision, O Ruler of all.

The Life I Owe

Trust me, I have not earned your dear rebuke, - I love, as you would have me, God the most; Would lose not Him, but you, must one be lost, Nor with Lot's wife cast back a faithless look, Unready to forego what I forsook; This say I, having counted up the cost, This, though I be the feeblest of God's host, The sorriest sheep Christ shepherds with His crook. Yet while I love my God the most, I deem That I can never love you over-much; I love Him more, so let me love you too; Yea, as I apprehend it, love is such I cannot love you if I love not Him, I cannot love Him, if I love not you. Christina Rossetti O Love, that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in Thee; I give Thee back the life I owe, That in Thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be. George Matheson

Beautiful Mercy

Beautiful Mercy by Laura Hackett There is no pit too deep that Jesus cannot reach There is no sorrow so strong that would overtake His beloved one And He’s brought me to the wilderness where I will learn to sing And He lets me know my barrenness so I will learn to lean Beautiful Mercy, do what You have to do Jealous Lover, do what You have to do So I will sing; yes, I will sing I will sing, even in this brokenness I will sing, even in this loneliness http://www.box.net/shared/cfreijqfxc

Found by love

Jamie's Song by Kristene Mueller She's a sparkle in her Father's eye Kind of like the moon tonight She's destined for divinity His portion is His purity And a glance His way comes across her face He sheds a tear, oh oh Amazing grace how sweet the sound Amazing love Oh she's been found A sparkle in her Father's crown Holy love come raining down Come storming in, be jealous found Come violent love, Come stormy seas Sweep fear away and you shall be And even if he had ninety nine Stayed at home and stayed in line He would not be satisfied He would still go out to find The one who's always on His mind And bring her back, arms opened wide He sheds a tear, oh oh Amazing grace how sweet the sound Amazing love Oh she's been found Holy love come raining down Come storming in, be jealous found Come violent love, Come stormy seas Sweep fear away and you shall be http://www.box.net/shared/j39kzls9kp
