I Stand Amazed - Lyrics

I stand amazed in Your presence
There is nothing You cannot do
I stand amazed in Your presence
There is joy, peace and hope

There’s no one like You, Jesus
There’s no one like You
In all the earth
Nobody like You, Jesus
There’s no one like You

You do mighty things
You do glorious things
You’re a faithful God
Awesome is Your name

I stand amazed in Your presence
There is nothing You cannot do
I stand amazed in Your presence
There is joy, peace and hope

There’s no one like You, Jesus
There’s no one like You, in all the earth
There’s no one like You, Jesus
There’s no one like You

You do mighty things
You do glorious things
You’re a faithful God
Awesome is Your name

Glorious God You are
You opened the blind eyes, Mighty God
Turning situations around,
You're the Mighty God
We bless You, we lift You, You are glorious!

You do mighty things
You do glorious things
You’re a faithful God
Awesome is Your name

Come on, put your hands together!

Lift your voice, let's sing, "Hallelujah!" Come on!

Hallelujah, hallelujah

I love you (I love you)

I dance for you (I dance for you)

I shout (I shout)

Hallelujah (Hallelujah)

You do mighty things
You do glorious things
You’re a faithful God
Awesome is Your name
 
Hallelujah!

My Hope is in You — Lyrics

I meet with You
And my soul sings out
As Your word throws doubt far away

I sing to You
And my heart cries holy
Hallelujah! Father, You're near

My hope is in You Lord
All the day long
I won't be shaken by drought or storm
A peace that passes understanding is my song
And I sing
My hope is in You alone

I wait for You
And my soul finds rest
In my selfishness
You show me grace

I worship
You And my heart cries glory
Hallelujah! Father, You're here

(chorus)


I will wait on You
You are my refuge
I will wait on You 
You are my refuge
(Repeats)

My hope is in You Lord
All the day long
I won't be shaken by drought or storm


The peace that passes understanding is my song
And I sing
My hope is in You alone
My hope is in You alone

My hope is in You alone

God Only Knows - For King And Country


Music Video Below

------------------------

Hi!

Today's music, God Only Knows, comes from For King And Country

The group formed by brothers Joel and Luke Smallbone, who count Christian recording artist Rebecca St. James among their siblings, released their first album in 2012.

Their website offers further insight into their background and their desire for their music to speak to listener's hearts:

 https://www.forkingandcountry.com/pages/about-us

"Joel and Luke, who have become American citizens, learned about hope, love and support from their tight-knit family. Their parents raised seven children in Sydney, Australia, before moving to Nashville in 1991

“People are hungry for truth and hope,” Luke says. “I don’t think they want something that is false. So when it comes to people seeking out God, they are receptive because they are trying to figure out what is true and real."

--------------------

Comments posted on YouTube under the video—show that many Christians are using it as a platform to testify about their faith in God and Jesus as Lord—and also reveal the impact it is making in people's lives.

It is my prayer that this video and music will Bless you and fill your heart with the knowledge of God's Power and Perfect Love for you—and that as you cling to Him—He will Comfort you and give you Peace no mater what you are facing on your journey through life!

God Only Knows - Lyrics

Wide awake while the world is sound a'sleeping
Too afraid of what might show up while you're dreaming
Nobody, nobody, nobody sees you
Nobody, nobody would believe you

Every day you try to pick up all the pieces
All the memories, they somehow never leave you
Nobody, nobody, nobody sees you
Nobody, nobody would believe you

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
God only knows how it's killing you
But there's a kind of love that God only knows

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
There's a kind of love that God only knows

There's a kind of love that
There's a kind of love

You keep a cover over every single secret
So afraid if someone saw them they would leave
But somebody, somebody, somebody sees you
Somebody, somebody will never leave you

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
God only knows how it's killing you
But there's a Kind of Love that God only knows

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
There's a Kind of Love that God only knows

There's a Kind of Love that
There's a Kind of Love
There's a Kind of Love that
There's a Kind of Love

For the lonely, for the ashamed
The misunderstood, and the ones to blame
What if we could star over
We could star over
We could star over

Oh, for the lonely, for the ashamed
The misunderstood, and the ones to blame
What if we could star over
We could star over
We could star over

Cause there's a Kind of Love that God only knows

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
There's a Kind of Love that God only knows

God only knows what you've been through
God only knows what they say about you
But God only knows the real you
There's a Kind of Love that God only knows

There's a Kind of Love that
There's a Kind of Love
There's a Kind of Love that
There's a Kind of Love

God only knows where to find you
God only knows how to break through
God only knows the real you
There's a Kind of Love that God only knows

Loving My Jesus - Casting Crowns


— "Music-Only" Video Below —

Hello!

Today's music, Loving My Jesus, comes from the group Casting Crowns.

If you've kept your ear tuned to Contemporary Christian Music—Casting Crowns will be a familiar name to you.

According to their website, the band has released a number of hit songs, gets regular air-play on Christian media, wins awards, breaks sales records with their albums, and and sells out arenas during concert tours.

But the best part, is that their purpose is to point to the Author of Life, the King of kings, and Lord of lords—Christ Jesus the Messiah!

A quote from the band's website states:

"When discussing the band’s latest project, Only Jesus, lead singer Mark Hall takes great pains to shift the focus off of the band, off of himself, and solely onto the one they sing about. 

Only Jesus personifies the band’s mission to help people understand the nature of God’s love and Jesus’s sacrifice, digging deep into the who and the why, inviting the listener on a heart-journey of foundational faith, immovable trust and ultimately, freedom in Christ.  

“I want people to see that God is the author and the finisher of our faith,” Hall shares. “He starts the work and He finishes the work. If we could just rest in the fact that He saved us, that He’s got us, we can rest in what He’s doing now and strive for what’s ahead.” 

It’s a timeless message, and one that’s still changing lives today.

For Casting Crowns, there’s one thing they hope people will take away after listening to the new album—only Jesus."

Loving My Jesus - Lyrics

I was a wandering soul
Traveling a well worn road
A sinner so far from home
No second chance in sight

I heard You call my name
I felt You lift my shame
And I made a vow that day
That I’d spend the rest of my life

Loving my Jesus
Showing my scars
Telling my story of how mercy
Can reach You where You are

And I pray the whole world hears
The cry of my heart
Is to see all the ones I love
Loving my Jesus    

Sin tries to make you hide
Whispers that same old lie
Keep all your pain inside
‘Cause no one will understand

The last thing this lost world needs
Is someone I’m trying to be
Truth that has set me free
Is that I’m just a broken man

Chorus

When all is said and done
When my last song’s been sung
I stand face to face with the One
Who gave all for me

May all I have to show
Be all that mattered most
Making Your great name known
Let this be my only legacy

Loving my Jesus
Showing my scars
Telling my story of how Mercy
Can reach You where You are

And I pray the whole world hears
The cry of my heart
Is to see all the ones I love
Loving my Jesus

1 Corinthians 13:

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Beautiful Video: Terrian - God With Us


Today's beautiful music video, God With Us, comes from talented Christian song-writer and singer, Terrian.

The lyrics echo the account of Jesus' birth in Matthew 1:18-23—as foretold by Isaiah 7:14:

The Birth of Jesus the Messiah

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. When his mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit; 19 and her husband Joseph, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame, resolved to divorce her quietly. 20 But as he considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit; 21 she will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.” 22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet:

23
“Behold, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son,
and his name shall be called Emman′u-el” *


(which means, God with us).


Isaiah 7:14

Whether you walked with Jesus as Lord for years—or are just beginning your journey with Him—it is my prayer that He will reveal and renew—in your heart and life—His wondrous and abundant Love and Mercy.

Everlasting God - Lincoln Brewster


Hi,

Recently. I was driving in my car when Everlasting God, by Lincoln Brewster, came on the radio.

I've heard it many times before—but dropped in on it somewhere in the middle—and was enjoying hearing it with "fresh" ears—and really liked the guitar solo—and THEN was very moved when the little child reads from Isaiah 40:28-31 at the end!

Everlasting God - Lyrics

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our strong deliverer

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary
You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord

Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our strong deliverer.

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won't grow weary
You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
The everlasting God
The everlasting...

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord, we will wait upon the Lord

[child speaking]

The Lord is the everlasting God
The creator of all the Earth
He never grows weak or weary
No one can measure the depths of His understanding
He gives power to the weak, and strength to the powerless
Even youths will become weak and tired
And young men will fall in exhaustion
But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength
They will soar high on wings like eagles
They will run and not grow weary
They will walk and not faint
