You Are The Joy Of My World

 Isaiah 52:9
 Break forth into joy, sing together, ye waste places of Jerusalem: for the LORD hath comforted his people, he hath redeemed Jerusalem.

Knowing Joy 

We all have a different life.  We have a world in this world and that world is the world of people we know, places we go, the place we live and what we allow in our lives. Christ is part of my world and He has given me joy.  I can't say that I'm always joyful, but Christ has taught me to be joyful.  Praising the Lord and meditating upon His Word is a way to restore joy each day. Without him is emptiness like a desert place that never knew joy or can truly know it.  Making Christ the most valuable part of our world comes first by accepting his gift of salvation, which he offers to every man, woman and child.  Maintaining joy comes through a faithful life of meditation upon His Word, faith, singing, praising, thanksgiving and prayer. Keeping a clear con·science before God is also very important in maintaining joy.  We can not continue in sin and continue in the joy of the Lord.
God resists the proud who will not humble himself and turn from sin, but he draws nigh to the humble one, who repents and turns from his sin. Maintaining a good relationship with Christ will enable us to know and live a joyful life.  Though life has sorrows and troubles, like Paul and Silas who were thrown in a cold dark prison, we too can find joy through our problems.

An Easter Thanksgiving

An Easter Thanksgiving

Every day is Thanksgiving when we are a child of God. 

We have every reason to praise Him, if we believe. 

Pray and love Him each day, we should give Him glory, give Him praise;

No matter if it's Easter or if it's Christmas Eve.

Let us thank the Lord, in one accord, this Resurrection Day; 

Jesus  has loved us more than we have ever been loved before;

Our Lord was torn ,was mocked ,was scorned and died for our sin.

He arose that bright morning never to die again.

Thank-you Jesus for giving your  life as a perfect sacrifice;

We praise your name, you overcame the powers of hell.

 You lit our dark hearts with life and gave us hope forevermore;

You fill our hearts with hopes and dreams, that will never fail.

Thank-you for the arising sun, that speaks of all that you have done;

And each blooming flower that returns from winter's grave.

Thank-you for your blessed Word,  through which you speak and in us stir;

By your grace, the believing , claim your name and are saved.

Every day is Thanksgiving when we  are a child of God. 

We have every reason to praise Him, if we believe. 

Pray and love Him each day, we should give Him glory, give Him praise;

No matter if it's Easter or if it's Christmas Eve.

Chorus:

Every day is Thanksgiving when we love Jesus.

We should praise Him and love Him each day;

This we know, His joy is aglow, in every thankful  heart.

For in believing,  we have our own resurrection day.

His Love For Us

His Love For Us

God knows we are empty without him.

He knows we don't understand;

He sent us his light, to light up our lives;

And he offers his life saving hands.

See the nail scars in his opened hands?

They were scared for sinful man.

To redeem us with his precious blood;

See the love that drew salvation's plan?

See the scars upon his faithful feet?

They were scared to lead the Way.

To lead us into his righteousness;

And to heaven one bright day.

His side was pierced, his blood flowed free;

The scar is still there to see.

His love for us, bid him die for us;

Oh, the love of Calvary.

His blood was shed, as he hung his head;

The mockers did not perceive.

That God himself, gave himself for us;

He will save all who believe.

They took his torn body from the cross;

On that woeful day of doom.

But glory hallelujah;

He arose from that dark tomb.

The light appeared in that cold dark place;

Where Jesus stood at the door....

Today he offers his nail scared hand;

To be saved forever more.

And  as a new day sun arises;

As new flowers of spring bloom.

So do our hearts in his redeeming;

The day we give him room.

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Jesus Knows - Poster

Jesus Knows

Jesus knew He would die;

A merciless death.

He knew they would mock;

With no tenderness.

Jesus  knew the high cost;

And paid it in blood.

As they pounded the nails;

With each sounding thud.

Jesus knew forgiveness;

For those that scourged Him.

And cried for their souls;

As He paid for their sin.

He knew the  great horror:

He would have to face.

He knew He had power;

To leave from its place.

He knew of redemption;

And what it would take.

He freely did suffer;

For yours and my sake.

He  knew He'd have vic'try;

Over deaths sway.

He would conquer the curse;

Resurrection day.

He knows more than your name;

And He knows your shame.

He knows all your burdens;

He knows all your pain.

He knows that He's the Way;

The Light and the Truth.

He knows He's the answer

He's calling to you.

Optional Chorus:

He knows, yes He knows;

He knows your name;

And He loves you so.

He knew, Yes He knew;

He knew He'd shed;

His precious blood for you.
