Find Me - Acoustic - Jonathan Helser


Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice, and let them say among the nations, “The Lord reigns!” Let the sea roar, and all that fills it; let the field exult, and everything in it! Then shall the trees of the forest sing for joy before the Lord, for he comes to judge the earth. Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures forever! - 1 Chronicles 16:31–34


Hi!

Today's worship song beautifully strips away all the modern production and backing instrumentation — right down to just one man's voice, accompanied by his acoustic guitar.

The video for "Find Me," sung by Jonathan Helser, perfectly reflects the music as well and creates a wonderful calm that spoke deeply to my spirit.

It was filmed on on "a river where generations of the Helser family have grown up" — and that part of the video alone is absolutely beautiful and inspiring — but the song and performance are truly wonderful as well

Johnathan wrote the lyrics and music and the song is available for purchase through iTunes or the entire album Beautiful Surrender - Jonathan David & Melissa Helser can be found here:

I hope you will feel the great Love of our Lord Jesus as you check out Johnathan's video as well — and it helps lead you into a deeper relationship with the Creator of the universe!.

Find Me - Lyrics

I fall down upon the ground,
Press my face against the earth,
Till my heart - it rises over my head,

As the wheat it bows down low,
When the autumn wind blows,
I kneel before the One I love,

Find me grateful,
Find me thankful,
Find me on my knees,

Find me dreaming,
Find me singing,
Find me lost in Your Grace,

Like the dust that You first held,
In a garden where You knelt,
Pull me up against Your face again,

Till the breath of Your hope,
Fill the depths of my soul,
Till all I know is I’ve been found by love

9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.

Becky Lang - Psalm 27

Hi!

I first heard this song a few years ago and liked it then.

Today I heard it again for the first time in a while — and wow did it speak to me.

Psalm 27 is sung sweetly and gently by Christian singer Becky Lang — and her website's "about" page reveals the story about how this song came together:

"I have been a worship leader for about ten years now, half of which has been at Hilltop Campus Church in Peoria, Illinois. It was actually in preparation for a worship service that my song, Psalm 27, was birthed. I felt stuck while going through my song books so I asked the Lord what He wanted us to sing that night. I then opened my Bible to Psalm 27 (one of my favorite chapters) and out flowed the song in about three minutes' time. 
 
I strongly feel that the Lord led me to this passage to give a word that the people of this generation so desperately need to have written on their hearts. Where is our confidence in these times when many hearts will fail out of fear? This song is a declaration of faith that we can be completely confident that we will one day see the beauty of the Lord. My hope and prayer is that the Lord would strengthen your hearts and deepen your confidence in Him as you worship with this song.

Blessings and Love,

Becky Lang

As always I pray this beautiful praise song will Bless you and lead you to our Merciful Father's Love!





Psalm 27 - Lyrics

The Lord is my Light,
The Lord is my Light and my Salvation,
Whom shall I fear,

The Strength of my life,
The Strength in my life,
Of whom shall I be afraid,

In this I will be comforted,
In my Life I look high and see the beauty of the Lord,

One thing,
Only one thing,
Only one thing Jesus,
You're the one thing that I seek,

Beautiful,
Wonderful,
Glorious are you Jesus!
