Delighting in Thee

Delighting in Thee, precious Savior,
In thy love through Calv’ry shown.
Thy attributes, O how matchless
Thou art God, and thou alone!

Delighting in Thee, precious Savior,
In they strength and holy power.
Show to me thy heart, thy wisdom
And the fear of thee this hour.

Delighting in Thee, precious Savior,
In thy grace and majesty.
In thy greatness, why should thou Lord,
Die to save a wretch like me?

Delighting in Thee, precious Savior,
In Thy glory and Thy ways.
And I cry in adoration
“Lord, may Thou receive the praise!”

Pray Without Ceasing

Pray without ceasing, praising the Lord.
He hath provided thee salvation’s sword
Through His own death and His blood outpoured
This is God’s will concerning you.

Chorus: This is God’s will concerning you:
Pray without ceasing, rejoice in the Lord
Quench not the Spirit and prove all things
For this is the will of the Lord.

Pray without ceasing, turn from your sin.
All thy transgressions lay them on Him.
Believe on His spirit and He shalt come in.
This is God’s will concerning you.

Pray without ceasing, for seeds that are sown
Make thy petitions and prayers, Christian, known.
Boldly thy plea make before thy Lord’s throne
This is God’s will concerning you.

Heal My Spirit

Heal my spirit heav’nly Father
From the painful scars of sin.
As I knell in deep contrition
And repentance, Lord come in.

Chorus: Heal my spirit Precious Savior
Come abide Lord, in my heart.
Here am I, Lord, come and help me
To surrender ev’ry part!

Heal my spirit, heav’nly Father
From the sorrows that I bear.
As I plead, Lord, for thy comfort
In the peaceful place of prayer.

Heal my spirit, Heav’nly Father
Lord, I listen for thy voice.
Free me from my sin and bondage
And in Thee, I shall rejoice!

Rejoicing in Jesus

Rejoicing in Jesus my Savior and King
No matter what each day and hour may bring
“Hosanna to Jesus! Forever I’ll sing!
Rejoicing in Jesus my Lord.

Chorus: Rejoicing in Jesus
All will be worth while!
To rest in the presence of my Savior’s smile!
To hear Him in glory
Proclaim in accord.
“Well done child, come enter
The joy of thy Lord!”

Rejoicing in Jesus though darkness is near
Giving to Jesus each doubt and each fear
For He, when I call upon Him will hear
Rejoicing in Jesus, my Lord.

Rejoicing in Jesus in Sorrow and pain
Trusting in Him who’s forever the same
And that He will make the confusing way plain
Rejoicing in Jesus, my Lord.

Rejoicing in Jesus all temptations fail,
Though they all around me in terror assail
Through Jesus, my fortress, I shall prevail!
Rejoicing in Jesus, my Lord.

Rejoicing in Jesus through all of life’s path
Bearing His smile and His heart- lifting laugh.
This my desire, yea, all that I hath –
Rejoicing in Jesus, my Lord.
