he put a new song in my mouth

come

If He can conquer the grave, He can flood the deserts

If He came before, He can come again

Lord, come

Come, Lord Jesus, come

Come, Lord Jesus, come

 

If He can make the sun rise, He can break the darkness

If He bore your shame, He can bear your fears

Lord, come

 

Come, Lord Jesus, come

Come, Lord Jesus, come

Come, Lord Jesus, come

Come, Lord Jesus, come

 

Rejoice! Rejoice! He is coming!

Dance! Dance! He is coming!

christmas 'round the corner

Christmas time is right around the corner. How odd! I cannot believe how quickly this year has passed. Thank God this semester is wrapping up. I have 3 exams left. And then I am off to India for two weeks. I feel so unprepared! Yikes! I think more than anything I'm fearful that I'll come back exactly the same. Not that I won't care more for orphans or for different peoples. I'm afraid I'll come back just as dry as when I left. Alas. I share the sentiments of John in the last chapter of Revelation. "Come, Lord Jesus."

a prayer for the brokenhearted

A Prayer For The Broken Hearted 1. No day in my life has past,  That hasn't proved me guilty  Prayers are uttered too fast  From a heart that's cold and empty. Chorus: Oh Blessed Jesus,  May we find a covert in thy wounds Though our sins, they rise to meet us, How they fall next to the merits of you 2. Oh, all in me calls for this  It calls for my rejection  This heavy unrighteousness,  Oh is there no protection? Bridge: My best services are rags, my best deeds are filthy. Repeat Chorus 3. Grant me hear thy shoring voice,  That in thy wounds is pardon  Grant me see thy willing choice  To make my hard heart softened  Bridge 2: Keep the broken-hearted sure,  Clinging to thy cross, our cure. Repeat Chorus Twice © 2006 Petit Bateau Music (ASCAP).
