Q - Love For One Another
05:09
|
|||
|
Living life on the edge of a heartbreak,
some have nowhere to turn.
They wish someone would reach out to them.
We pass people on the street each day. They wonder
where is our source of joy?
And why won't we share some of it with them?
If we've got all the answers,
why can't we provide solutions?
We look at life with blinders on
we see no one but ourselves
Why can't we help the man who's fallen down?
Instead we point out his faults to him
How will that help him out?
Shouldn't he know us by the love we share?
If he's looking for a savior,
will he find that savior in us?
Chorus: We need love for one another
We need to show them that the Lord's alive and well
We're all sisters and brothers
We need love for one another
I've never thought of myself as an example
of what a Christian should be
I'll admit I'm not perfect
But I started thinking about those who don't know him
Do they know he lives in me?
Can I show them who he really is?
If they can't find him in me,
tell me, where will they turn?
Chorus
Bridge: Do we love (as Jesus loved)?
Do we show (that we care)?
Can we make a difference with the love we share?
We need love
Chorus

You have your own problems to live with
and I also have mine too.
Yet you manage to comfort me
when I am down and blue
I know that being an example is so hard to do
but still you are always there
It's good to know that there is someone around.
Someone who always cares
Chorus: Christian friends (you can always count on them)
Christian friends (they're always there)
Christian friends (they don't give up on you)
Because they always care.
I always manage to lose control
of the sins that pull me down.
But the Lord works through my friends
who help me when satan's around.
With a comforting word and a friendly smile
they always help me out
Building each other up in the Lord,
that's what friends are all about.
Chorus
Bridge: It's never been too hard to be a friend
everybody needs them
to stay 'til the very end.

We are standing together
United as one
before the Holy Throne
We are standing together
right in the sight of God.
We are standing together
United as one
before the Holy Throne
We are standing together
right in the sight of God.
We praise the King of Kings
We praise the Lord of Lords
He is Holy! He is Holy!
He is Holy!
The Lord our God!
We praise the King of Kings
We praise the Lord of Lords
He is Holy! He is Holy!
He is Holy!
The Lord our God! (He is Holy!)
We are standing together
United as one
before the Holy Throne
We are standing together
right in the sight of God.
We are standing together
United as one
before the Holy Throne
We are standing together
right in the sight of God.
He is Holy!
He is Holy!
He is Holy!

As I look back at Christ's life on this earth
I find comfort when I read of his birth
and it inspires me when I read that he died for me
I read of his ministry and I can feel glad
that he's still reaching out to those who are sad
I get inspired to write of his love for me
Chorus: He's my Divine Inspiration (He put the words in my mouth)
He puts a song in my soul.
And with his hand to guide me (all the way to Heaven)
Heaven is my supreme goal.
We read in the Bible of his works
and how he's always there where evil lurks
He's there to catch us every time we fall.
We strive daily to work for the Lord
and walk our paths by the light of his word.
We try our best to be like him every day.
Chorus
Bridge: I can't believe that a man would die
for a wretch like me
So its my duty to be an example
for all the world to see
Chorus

Ariel - Healing Touch
02:59
|
|||
|
In the Bible we read of Christ's healing touch
how he made the lame to walk and cleansed the leper's spots
They just believed on his name, and they gave him the praise
and also from the dead did Christ many raise
Chorus: Healing touch (we need it)
healing touch
my Jesus has that healing touch
Healing touch (Yes!)
healing touch
my Jesus has that healing touch
I was gashed and bleeding by Satan's sword
I was bruised and wounded and without the word
but I just prayed to my Jesus whom I love so much
and he delivered precious healing touch
Chorus
If you are lost and wounded and are living in sin
just obey my Jesus and be cleansed within.
He will answer your prayers if you will only do such
Yes, he'll deliver precious healing touch
Chorus

Ariel - Christ My Lord
03:17
|
|||
|
Thank you, God, for everything
that you've ever done
especially for the sacrificing
of your only son.
I know sometimes it seems like
I don't care at all.
But how could I forget that without
your son I would fall.
Chorus: Because he's Jesus, Christ my Lord.
Jesus, Christ my Lord.
He bled and died upon the cruel
cross of Calvary.
Those who killed him didn't know
he had set them free.
Sometimes we take for granted
the love shared by the son
but I know that someday because of him
the victory will be won.
Because he's Jesus, Christ my Lord.
All because he's Jesus, Christ my Lord.
Because he's Jesus, Christ my Lord.
All because he's Jesus, Christ my Lord.

I know that someday we will make it to Heaven.
I know this by the lives that we've lived.
I know someday we will meet him in Glory
and he will give us the gift he promised he'd give.
Chorus: I'll see you at the top of your life! (Gonna see you up in Heaven!)
I'll see you at the top of your life! (Gonna see you at the top!)
I'll see you at the top of your life! (I'll see you at the top!)
I'll see you at the top of your life!
I can't describe this joy that I'm feeling
because Heaven is just a step away.
We'll rise into the air and he will greet us
and we will be in Heaven to stay
Chorus
|

11. |

|
We need love in return
I pray that everyone will learn
to share the love that they receive
so that all may believe.
Chorus: We need love
Because that is what he is.
We need love
Father please, please teach me
to be what you want me to be.
Don't let them see me.
I pray that you are all they see.
Chorus
Bridge: They should know us by the love we give away.
They should see our love every hour of every day.
They look at us, hoping they will see the Father
And HE IS LOVE.
We must have love for everyone
Until our lives on earth are done.
Show the love shared by the son
when he prayed that we be one.
Chorus

I love the Lord. He loves me, too.
And I want to let you know
that he will also love you (He loves you, too.)
(He loves you, too.)
Through his grace I'll see his face
and I won't be ashamed
to claim he's mine. Its the right time
to praise his Holy name.
(I'm in God's love)
Chorus: Happily ever after in his love.
Yes in his love. And we'll live
happily ever after in his love.
Yes, in God's love!
I see my life. He sees it, too.
and we also see my sin
and wonder what will I do? (What will I do?)
(What will I do?)
Through his grace I'll see his face
and I won't be ashamed
to claim he's mine. It's the right time
to praise his Holy name.
(I'm in God's love)

Ariel - Lions of God
02:49
|
|||
|
Each day as we try to live by God's word
we are put to the test by those around us.
We must carry our cross as we share our faith
for this is what God's word commands us
When it seems like you're alone, ask the Lord for strength
He will carry you through. He will not leave you.
He's our sword and our shield. He's our strength when we yield
so never give up. He'll always be there.
Chorus: Because we're Lions! We're Lions of God
Spreading the Gospel of Jesus through song!
Yes we're Lions! We're Lions of God
putting our trust in whom there is no wrong!
Let's lift up our voice in a world full of sin
and pray that we'll make a difference.
Many are looking for God if we'll just show the way.
We can change the hearts of those around us.
Each have our special way of sharing our faith
if we'll just stand up and use it.
For we must live by his word and we must tell of his word.
It's up to us to make a difference.
Chorus

Let's get excited about Jesus!
Let's start praising the Lord!
Let's exalt the Spirit
and read from his word!
Its an exciting time
that we can spend in fellowship!
Its a time for singing!
A song of praise flows from our lips!
So Praise the Lord...He's the Lord of my life!
Let's get excited about family
the family of God!
Exalting others in love,
encouraging all!
Its a time of happiness
and its a time of joy!
Its a source of strength for
every man, woman, girl and boy!
So praise the Lord...He is the Lord of my life!
We're praising Jesus Christ,
God's only son!
We're gonna praise his holy name
until our lives are done!
We're gonna live for him
and glorify his name
because loving us
is why he came!
So praise the Lord...He's the Lord of my life!
I'm leaning on the Lord of my Life!
