The Blessing  (624)
The Lord said to Moses, “Tell Aaron and his sons this is how you are to bless the Israelites.” Found in the book of “Numbers” 6:24

The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
And give you peace
And give you peace
The Lord lift his countenance upon you 

The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
And be gracious unto you
The Lord be gracious unto you 

The Lord bless you and keep you
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
And give you peace
And give you peace
The Lord make His face to shine upon you
The Lord bless you and keep you

Like Him
This is our quest. This is why we are here. This is what all that day to day junk 
we deal with is about. We were made in His image. Now we are being 
renewed and transformed to become Like Him.
 

There is a man not of this world
There is a man not of this world
The greatest of all is the one who will serve
Will you be a man like Him?
Will you be a man like Him? 

And love is all that matters 
All that matters to Him
Yes love is all that matters
All that matters to Him
To Him

Songs of a Stranger
(Wayfaring Stranger, I am a Pilgrim, This World is not my Home)
Traditional
These songs have been in my heart to sing for quite sometime.
They express for me a longing for what is an indescribable 
fulfillment to this life's journey.

I am a poor wayfaring stranger
While traveling through this world of woe
Yet there's no sickness, toil or danger
In that bright world to which I go

I am going there, to see my Father
I am going there no more to roam
I'm only going over Jordan
I'm only going over home

This world is not my home
I'm only passing through
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue
The angels beckon me from heavens open door
And I won't feel at home in the world anymore

Oh Lord you know I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home
Oh Lord what will I do
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door
And I won't feel at home in this world

I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Just traveling through this wearisome, this wearisome land
I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it's not made by hand

I am a pilgrim and a stranger
Traveling through this wearisome land
I've got a home in that yonder city, good Lord
And it's no made by hand

This world is not my home
I'm only passing through

Sweet Jesus
A story of faith, doubt, compassion and the sweetness of our Lord. 
Would we trust Him today any more than they did?  Do we?

And the wind stood still
And they worshipped Him
Saying truly,  you are the Son of God 

Sweet Jesus
Sweet Jesus
You are the one who calms the sea
You are the one who rescues me
Sweet Jesus 

Oh you of little faith
Do not doubt, don’t be afraid
Come take my hand and walk with me 

Sweet Jesus
Sweet Jesus
You are the one who calms the sea
You are the one who rescues me
Sweet Jesus

 You reach out your hand to me
When the wind is all I see
Hear now my cry Lord save me 

Sweet Jesus
Sweet Jesus
You are the one who calms the sea 
You are the one who rescues me
Sweet Jesus
Sweet Jesus 

And the wind stood still.

Keeper of My Heart
When I experience the emptiness of even the best this world has to offer, it’s then I can more fully appreciate the gentleness and kindness of God’s care and protection. 

Keeper of my heart
 In you alone is righteousness
In you alone is holiness
Protect me by your faithfulness
Keeper of my heart 

Healer of my heart
In truth and love you came to me
My guilty hands you could not see
For by your blood covered me
Healer of my heart 

Ruler of my heart
King of kings and Lord of lords
All glory, power and praise be yours 
And may you be forevermore
Ruler of my heart
Healer of my heart
Keeper of my heart

Precious Child
Oh what a truth, may it become a revelation to know and store in our hearts.

 I am
I am
I am a precious child of God
I am 
I am
I am a precious child of God 

Chosen as one of His own
Holy and dearly loved
I am
I am
I am a precious child of God
I am
I am
I am a precious child of God 

Let the little children come unto me
For the kingdom belongs to such as these and
I am
Whoa I am
I am a precious child of God
I am
I am
I am a precious child of God 

How great is His love
The Father lavished on us
That we should be called the children of God and
I am... 

I am
I am
I am a precious child of God

Everyman
We all have had experiences with dark, lonely, and difficult days. Part of my job is to encourage you. Part of your job is to encourage me... “ bearing each others burdens.”  

Every man walks through the valley
He must sometimes walk alone
When the weight becomes too heavy
He must reach for strength beyond his own. 

Whoa oa oa oa oa
Whoa oa oa oa oa 

When the face of fear is in the mirror
And the heart of doubt beats in your chest
There is hope and strength for the courageous
For the weary, there will be rest 

Whoa oa oa oa oa
Whoa oa oa oa oa

Minutes Peace
Growing up, mom was often heard saying to me and my sister, (especially me) “I can’t get a ‘minute’s peace.’” This one’s for you mom. Enjoy every “minute” of it!

Love One Another
Go ahead. Do it.

I am the vine you are the branches
My father prunes the vine to bear much fruit
Go in my name as I have told you 

And love one another, love one another
As I have loved you... love one another 

Remain in me I will remain in you
Apart from me there's nothing you can do
Remain in my love and this I command you 

To love one another, love one another
As I have loved you...love one another 

There is no greater love
Than to lay down your life
For your brother
Love one another 

I no longer call you servant
For you shall be known as my friends
Showing yourselves to be my disciples 

Now love one another, love one another
As I have loved you, love one another
Love one another, love one another

As I have loved you...Love one another

Establish
One of my continual prayers. Taken from Psalm 90, the Hebrew means “the doings of our hands, may they be prosperous.”

Establish the work of our hands
Establish the work of our hands
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us 

Establish the work of our hands
Establish the work of our hands
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us 

U ma’aseh yadenu konehu
U ma’aseh yadenu konehu 

Establish the work of our hands
Establish the work of our hands
Establish the work of our hands

Presence Of I AM
Psalm 23 is filled with serene imagery. Imagine living in a place full of peace and plenty. No more worry-no more strife. Abiding in the glow of His presence. Dwelling in the house of the Lord forever. 

Won’t you lie down here beside me
Said the lion to the lamb
We have journeyed here together
In the presence of  I AM 

And we can drink from here in these still waters
Feed on fields of green ‘till we want no more
We are in the dwelling of perfect love
The presence of  I AM 

I will lie down here beside you
Said the lamb to the lion
There is no more fear of evil
My soul has been restored
My cup it overflows with living water
The table is prepared for you and me 

We are in the dwelling of perfect love
The presence of  I AM
I AM 

And we can drink from here in these still waters
Feed on fields of green ‘till we want no more
We are in the dwelling of perfect love

The presence of  I AM
I AM

I AM

David’s Theme
The 32nd Psalm seemed to capsule for me King David’s story. Blessing, sin, forgiveness and rejoicing again in the One who is our refuge. Oh yes, my story too. 

Oh Lord you have been my hiding place
Oh Lord you have been my hiding place
Oh Oh Oh Lord
I will confess uncover my iniquities
I will confess uncover my iniquities 

So rejoice and be glad
You who are righteous and upright in heart
Oh Oh Oh Lord 

Unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in you
Unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in you
Oh Oh Oh Lord 

So rejoice and be glad
You who are righteous and upright in heart
Oh Oh Oh Lord
Oh Oh Oh Lord 

You are my hiding place
Oh Lord

Lord’s Prayer
Traditional

Words that are humbling to sing...Lord, teach us to pray. 

Our Father which art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come 
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our sins
As we forgive those who sin against us
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For thine is the Kingdom
And the power
And the glory
Forever
Amen
