Worship Wednesdays - Refine Me
Refine Me
Your so patient with me
Faithful and sure
To make me into something better
You know prayers that I've prayed
The tears that I've cried
Lord you know my heart's desire
Oh, to know You
To be more like You
Do what You need to
Help me to trust You
Even if Your love brings me suff'ring
Help me to hold on
To know that You're strong enough to see me through completely
Refine me
Your joy will be my strength
while I'm in these flames
I'm becoming Your reflection
Your kindness will be my song
Though I'm not alone,
Your presence is my consolation
Oh, to know you
I'm longing for you
Do what you need to
Help me to trust you
Even if Your love brings me suff'ring
Help me to hold on
To know that You're strong
Enough to see me through completely
Refine me
Oh God! My God!
Refine me
Oh God! Merciful God!
All for Your glory,
All for my good
To know Your love much deeper
Than I thought I ever could
Refine me, Oh!
Do what You need to
Help me to trust You
Even if Your love brings me suff'ring
Help me to hold on
To know that you're strong
Enough to see me through completely
Refine me,
Oh God! My God! Please!
Refine me,
Oh God! Merciful God!
Your so patient with me
Faithful and sure
To make me into something better.

Worship Wednesdays - Thy Will
As I write today's post. It is almost over but this song has been an inspiration to me lately. No matter what happens I want God's Will to be done. It may hurt at times and i may not understand but I want His will to be done. I love the bridge of this song. It talks about God's plans for us and that He has goodness in store. He see us and hear us. Blessings as you listen to this song.
I’m so confused
I know I heard You loud and clear
So, I followed through
Somehow I ended up here
I don’t wanna think
I may never understand
That my broken heart is a part of Your plan
When I try to pray
All I’ve got is hurt and these four words
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You’re good
But this don’t feel good right now
And I know You think
Of things I could never think about
It’s hard to count it all joy
Distracted by the noise
Just trying to make sense
Of all Your promises
Sometimes I gotta stop
Remember that You’re God
And I am not
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
I know You hear me
I know You see me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord
I know I heard You loud and clear
So, I followed through
Somehow I ended up here
I don’t wanna think
I may never understand
That my broken heart is a part of Your plan
When I try to pray
All I’ve got is hurt and these four words
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You’re good
But this don’t feel good right now
And I know You think
Of things I could never think about
It’s hard to count it all joy
Distracted by the noise
Just trying to make sense
Of all Your promises
Sometimes I gotta stop
Remember that You’re God
And I am not
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
I know You hear me
I know You see me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness You have in store
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know You see me
I know You hear me, Lord

Worship Wednesdays - Find You On My Knees
Today's song has really been a favorite of mine for a while. It's a great reminder that no matter what we can find God when we are on our knees. He never leaves us. Even when we have nothing left but brokenness we can trust God because He remains faithful.
Troubles chasing me again,
Breaking down my best defense,
I'm looking, God, I'm looking for you
Weary just won't let me rest
And fear is filling up my head.
I'm longing, God I'm longing for you
But I will find you in the place I'm in,
Find you when I'm at my end,
Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
I'll find you on my knees.
So what if sorrow shakes my faith,
And what if heartache still remains?
I'll trust you, my God I'll trust you.
'Cause You are faithful and I will...
Find you in the place I'm in,
Find you when I'm at my end,
Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
Find you on my knees, my knees.
When my hope is gone,
When the fear is strong
When the pain is real,
When it's hard to heal
When my faith is shaken
And my heart is broken
And my joy is stolen,
God I know that...
You lift me up, you'll never leave me searching,
Find you in the place I'm in,
Find you when I'm at my end,
Find you when there's nothing left of me to offer you except for brokenness.
You lift me up, you'll never leave me thirsty,
When I am weak, when I am lost and searching
I'll find you on my knees.

Worship Wednesdays - I Am Not Alone
Today's song is such a great reminder that no matter what we face or what we go through we are not alone. God will never leave us. I love the second verse and how it says that even in the midst of deep sorrow, we see the light breaking through. The dark of night will not overtake us we are pressing into Him and He will fight our battles and we should not fear because we are not alone. Enjoy and be encouraged today.
When I walk through deep waters
I know that You will be with me
When I'm standing in the fire
I will not be overcome
Through the valley of the shadow
I will not fear
[x2:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me
In the midst of deep sorrow
I see Your light is breaking through
The dark of night will not overtake me
I am pressing into You
Lord, You fight my every battle
And I will not fear
[x2:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me
[x4:]
You amaze me
Redeem me
You call me as Your own
You're my strength
You're my defender
You're my refuge in the storm
Through these trials
You've always been faithful
You bring healing to my soul
[x6:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me
I know that You will be with me
When I'm standing in the fire
I will not be overcome
Through the valley of the shadow
I will not fear
[x2:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me
In the midst of deep sorrow
I see Your light is breaking through
The dark of night will not overtake me
I am pressing into You
Lord, You fight my every battle
And I will not fear
[x2:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me
[x4:]
You amaze me
Redeem me
You call me as Your own
You're my strength
You're my defender
You're my refuge in the storm
Through these trials
You've always been faithful
You bring healing to my soul
[x6:]
I am not alone
I am not alone
You will go before me
You will never leave me

Worship Wednesdays - Great is Our God
This song is a perfect song for worship. Our God is great and we need to proclaim with our voice just how great is His worth. Let this be our prayer today as we start a new month. Have a blessed day!
Come let us praise Him
Let us kneel at the throne of our God
Through His son our salvation was bought
With mercy and grace
Come let us bow down
In His hands are the depths of the earth
With one voice we proclaim His great worth
Lord our God
And we will seek Him
Our rock of salvation
Morning by morning
With thanksgiving we come
And we will bow down
With creation we cry out
In daylight and darkness
We sing to the Lord
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Lord of all nations
We will stand at the end of our days
In Your courts and declare Your great ways
In spirit and truth
We long for Your kingdom
Bring Your thunder and gather the earth
All who tremble will tell of Your worth
Lord our God
[x2:]
And we will seek Him
Our rock of salvation
Morning by morning
With thanksgiving we come
And we will bow down
With creation we cry out
In daylight and darkness
We sing to the Lord
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Great is our God
Come let us praise Him
Let us kneel at the throne of our God

Worship Wednesdays - Eye of the Storm
Even though we have hard times we must remember that Jesus remains in control. He is our anchor and His love surrounds us. When I first heard this song I felt it speak to me. Having gone through some dark times it was a great reminder that God remains in control when we go through the storm.
When the solid ground is falling out, from underneath my feet,
Between the black skies and my red eyes, I can barely see
And when I’m feeling like I’ve let down by my friends and my family,
Between the black skies and my red eyes, I can barely see
And when I’m feeling like I’ve let down by my friends and my family,
I can hear the rain reminding me
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
When my hopes and dreams are far from me, and I’m running out of faith
I see the future I pictured slowly fade away
And when the tears of pain and heartache are pouring down my face
I find my peace in Jesus' name
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
When they let me go and I just don’t know how I’m gonna make ends meet
I did my best now I’d scared to death that we might lose everything
And when a sickness takes my child away, and there’s nothing I can do
My only hope is to trust You, I trust you Lord
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
When my hopes and dreams are far from me, and I’m running out of faith
I see the future I pictured slowly fade away
And when the tears of pain and heartache are pouring down my face
I find my peace in Jesus' name
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
When they let me go and I just don’t know how I’m gonna make ends meet
I did my best now I’d scared to death that we might lose everything
And when a sickness takes my child away, and there’s nothing I can do
My only hope is to trust You, I trust you Lord
In the eye of the storm, You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm
You remain in control
In the middle of the war, You guard my soul
You alone are the anchor, when my sails are torn
Your love surrounds me, in the eye of the storm

Worship Wednesdays - Desert Song
Today's song is one that I recently have found and been listening to everyday. My favorite part of this song is the bridge. Even though we go through hard times or struggles God is still God and with us. We have a reason to sing and praise because God is always there and He is our victory. So let's go give Him praise. He is faithful! He is God!
[Verse 1:]
This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides
[Verse 2:]
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me, Lord, through the flame
[Chorus:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Verse 3:]
And this is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
[Chorus:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Bridge 4x:]
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
[Chorus 2x:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Verse 4:]
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow
This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides
[Verse 2:]
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me, Lord, through the flame
[Chorus:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Verse 3:]
And this is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
[Chorus:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Bridge 4x:]
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
[Chorus 2x:]
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
[Verse 4:]
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow

Worship Wednesdays - God is in Control
After reading the news on the election I thought this song was perfect for today. I will not go into the election news for this post but I will be writing my feelings on the subject soon. One thing I will say right now is to please PRAY for our nation and country. Now back to our regular scheduled program. Remember that no matter what is happening around us today God is in control. As hard as it can be at times we need to remember that. He will never forsake us and if we choose to remember that we won't be shaken. I hope you enjoy this song and really think about the words.
This is no time for fear
This is a time for faith and determination
Don't lose the vision here carried away by emotion
Hold on to all that you hide in your heart
For there is one thing that has always been true
It holds the world together
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control
History marches on
There is a bottom line drawn across the ages
Culture can make its plan, oh but the line never changes
No matter how the deception may fly
There is one thing that has always been true
And it will be true forever
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control
Oh, He has never let you down
Why start to worry now? Why start to worry now?
He is still the Lord of all we see
He is still the loving Father watching over you and me
Watching over you, watching over me
Watching over everything
Watching over you, watching over me
Every little sparrow, every little key, every little key
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control
This is a time for faith and determination
Don't lose the vision here carried away by emotion
Hold on to all that you hide in your heart
For there is one thing that has always been true
It holds the world together
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control
History marches on
There is a bottom line drawn across the ages
Culture can make its plan, oh but the line never changes
No matter how the deception may fly
There is one thing that has always been true
And it will be true forever
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control
Oh, He has never let you down
Why start to worry now? Why start to worry now?
He is still the Lord of all we see
He is still the loving Father watching over you and me
Watching over you, watching over me
Watching over everything
Watching over you, watching over me
Every little sparrow, every little key, every little key
God is in control
We believe that His children will not be forsaken
God is in control
We will choose to remember and never be shaken
There is no power above or beside Him, we know
Oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control, oh, God is in control

Worship Wednesdays - It's Not Over Yet
It's Not Over Yet! This song has spoken to me in ways I can't explain. It has reminded me that no matter what it's not over yet even when I feel defeated. The story behind this song that For King and Country wrote was for their sister who struggled with chronic Lyme disease. When I first heard this song I immediately fell in love with it. I could relate to the lyrics. You see I have chronic lymes as well and struggle everyday with the symptoms but you know what. I'm going to keep fighting because my life isn't over yet. I'm just getting started. Even if I have hit my limit. I'm not giving up or giving in. I hope this encourages you as it has me.
They are inside your head
You got a voice that says
You won't get past this one
You won't win your freedom
It's like a constant war
And you want to settle that score
But you're bruised and beaten
And you feel defeated
This goes out to the heaviest heart
[Chorus:]
Oh, to everyone who's hit their limit
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
And even when you think you're finished
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
Keep on fighting
Out of the dark
Into the light
It's not over
Hope is rising
Never give in
Never give up
It's not over
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa
Oh, game set match
It's time to put it in your past, oh
Feel the winter leavin'
It's redemption season
Long live the young at heart (Here we are)
Cheers to a brand new start (Here we are)
We're revived and breathing
To live a life of freedom
[Chorus:]
Oh, to everyone who's hit their limit
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
And even when you think you're finished
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
Keep on fighting
Out of the dark
Into the light
It's not over
Hope is rising
Never give in
Never give up
It's not over
Life is a race we run
So run till the race is won
Don't you ever give up (Here we are)
Oh no never give up (Here we are)
Life is a race we run
So run till the race is won
Don't you ever give up (Here we are)
We will never give up (Here we are)
[Chorus:]
Oh, to everyone who's hit their limit
And even when you think you're finished
It's not over yet
Oh, to everyone who's hit their limit
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
And even when you think you're finished
It's not over yet
It's not over ye-et
Keep on fighting
Out of the dark
Into the light
It's not over
Hope is rising
Never give in
Never give up
It's not over
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa

It's not over
Hope is rising
Never give in
Never give up
It's not over
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa
Yea-et-et, whoa

Worship Wednesdays - Right Here With Me
Today's song is something brand new. I recently found this new christian band last week and just had to share this song with you. It is called Right Here with Me. The chorus has to be by far my favorite. Sometimes the road we are walking on is hard and we don't feel strong. We need God to be with us. Hope this song encourages you as it has me.
I’m just a man and nothing more
Than broken bones an empty core
Inside my soul with no hope and all alone
But I keep trying to hard
And I keep falling apart
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that I’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me.
I’m just a boy with a broken heart
The decades pass but still I’m far
From ever being good enough
But I keep trying too hard, too hard
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that i’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me
You’ll be right here, right here, with me
The road is long the waters deep
So here I am falling on my knees
You’ll be right here, right here, with me
Here I am, I give everything
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that i’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me
Than broken bones an empty core
Inside my soul with no hope and all alone
But I keep trying to hard
And I keep falling apart
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that I’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me.
I’m just a boy with a broken heart
The decades pass but still I’m far
From ever being good enough
But I keep trying too hard, too hard
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that i’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me
You’ll be right here, right here, with me
The road is long the waters deep
So here I am falling on my knees
You’ll be right here, right here, with me
Here I am, I give everything
But I know I’m not strong enough now to walk this road that i’m going down
So here I am praying for you to be, right next to me
I know I’m not strong enough here to go alone without you near
So here I am waiting for you to be, right here with me

Worship Wednesdays - Deeper
This
is an amazing song. I had the privilege of meeting Meredith Andrews at a Women's Conference
back in November of 2015. She sang this song at the event. The first time I heard it I was going through a
really rough time. Since then it has quickly become a favorite. Even
though I've been kicked down, felt hurt I realized that God was making
me stronger. His love was going deeper and deeper in my heart. I hope this encourages you today like it has encouraged me. Remember that no matter what is ahead of us God will make a way for us.
I have kicked up the dust and the dirt on the narrow road
I have had to let go of some hurt to hold on to hope
I’ve watched the sunset before the promise came
I have waded through waters wide and walked through the flame
And I can say
Every valley made me lift my eyes up
Every burden only made me stronger
Every sorrow only made Your joy go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
I will run like I’m out to win, and finish the race
For every battle that’s sure to come I will be brave
I’ve got my heart set on every word You say
And no matter what lies ahead You’ll make a way
And I will say
Every valley made me lift my eyes up
Every burden only made me stronger
Every sorrow only made Your joy go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
Every mountain is making me a climber
Every giant is calling out a fighter
Every heartache only makes Your love go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
Thrown down but not defeated
I’m worn out but not giving up
I’ve hit ground but even at rock bottom
I’m just getting started, yea, I’m just getting started
I have had to let go of some hurt to hold on to hope
I’ve watched the sunset before the promise came
I have waded through waters wide and walked through the flame
And I can say
Every valley made me lift my eyes up
Every burden only made me stronger
Every sorrow only made Your joy go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
I will run like I’m out to win, and finish the race
For every battle that’s sure to come I will be brave
I’ve got my heart set on every word You say
And no matter what lies ahead You’ll make a way
And I will say
Every valley made me lift my eyes up
Every burden only made me stronger
Every sorrow only made Your joy go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
Every mountain is making me a climber
Every giant is calling out a fighter
Every heartache only makes Your love go
Deeper and deeper, deeper, and deeper
Thrown down but not defeated
I’m worn out but not giving up
I’ve hit ground but even at rock bottom
I’m just getting started, yea, I’m just getting started

Worship Wednesdays - Glorify You Alone
We sang this song a few weeks ago at church and I instantly fell in love with it. Isn't it wonderful to be able to worship and glorify the name of Jesus. He is worthy of all our praise. He loved us so much that He shed His life's blood to save us. Let's worship and praise His wonderful name forever.
VERSE 1
Who is this King of glory
Beautiful and matchless one
Who is this King so holy
Every knee will bow at His throne
PRE-CHORUS
Jesus, the Lamb of God
Savior and King
CHORUS
You alone are worthy of our praise forever
You alone are seated on the throne of Heaven
Glorify, glorify, You alone
VERSE 2
Who is this King of mercy
Wonderful and full of grace
Who is this King so worthy
Nations fear and kingdoms praise
VERSE 3
You are the King that saves us
Powerful and full of love
You are the King that gave us
Life with every drop of Your blood
Who is this King of glory
Beautiful and matchless one
Who is this King so holy
Every knee will bow at His throne
PRE-CHORUS
Jesus, the Lamb of God
Savior and King
CHORUS
You alone are worthy of our praise forever
You alone are seated on the throne of Heaven
Glorify, glorify, You alone
VERSE 2
Who is this King of mercy
Wonderful and full of grace

Worship Wednesdays - At The Cross (Love Ran Red)
We are just a few days away from Easter and what is more appropriate then this song. I know I say this almost every week but this is really one of my favorite songs. I am in awe of what Jesus did for me. It all started at the cross where He died to forgive me from my sins. As we prepare for Easter let's remember the greatest gift of all. Jesus loved us so much that He died for our sins.
There's a place where mercy reigns and never dies
There's a place where streams of grace flow deep and wide
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Jesus
There's a place where sin and shame are powerless
Where my heart has peace with God
And forgiveness
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Here my hope is found
Here on holy ground
Here I bow down
Here I bow down
Here arms open wide
Here You saved my life
Here I bow down
Here I bow
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Jesus
There's a place where streams of grace flow deep and wide
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Jesus
There's a place where sin and shame are powerless
Where my heart has peace with God
And forgiveness
Where all the love I've ever found
Comes like a flood
Comes flowing down
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Here my hope is found
Here on holy ground
Here I bow down
Here I bow down
Here arms open wide
Here You saved my life
Here I bow down
Here I bow
At the cross
At the cross
I surrender my life
I'm in awe of You, I'm in awe of You
Where Your love ran red
And my sin washed white
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
I owe all to You, I owe all to You
Jesus

Worship Wednesdays - O the Blood of Jesus
We are one and a half weeks away from Easter. This song reminds me of the greatest sacrifice of all. Jesus died and rose again for me. Because of His sacrifice my life is saved. I am so thankful and totally unworthy that Jesus shed his blood for me. Thank you Jesus!
O the blood
Crimson love
Price of life's demand
Shameful sin
Placed on Him
The Hope of every man
O the blood of Jesus washes me
O the blood of Jesus shed for me
What a sacrifice that saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my victory
Savior Son
Holy One
Slain so I can live
See the Lamb
The great I Am
Who takes away my sin
O the blood of Jesus washes me
O the blood of Jesus shed for me
What a sacrifice that saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my victory
O the blood of the Lamb
O the blood of the Lamb
O the blood of the Lamb
The precious blood of the Lamb
What a sacrifice
That saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my victory
O what love
No greater love
Grace, how can it be
That in my sin
Yes, even then
He shed His blood for me
O the blood of Jesus washes me
O the blood of Jesus shed for me
What a sacrifice that saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my victory
It was a sacrifice that saved my life
Yes, the blood, it is my victory
Thank You for Your blood
Come on thank Him
Ooh thank Him
Thank You for Your blood
Thank You for Your love
Thank You Lord
Thank You
Thank You
Thank You

Savior Son
Holy One
Slain so I can live
See the Lamb

Who takes away my sin
O the blood of Jesus washes me
O the blood of Jesus shed for me

O the blood of the Lamb
O the blood of the Lamb
O the blood of the Lamb
The precious blood of the Lamb

Worship Wednesdays - Guilty
I am not ashamed of Jesus! I will always proclaim His name. No matter what I want to be Guilty! This is an awesome song and I just wanted to share it with you today. As we are getting closer to Easter and remember what Christ did for us I thought this song would be appropriate for today. Even if it gets me convicted I will be on my knees with my hands lifted. That is a line from this song. Once again the Newsboys did an awesome job writing this. Enjoy!
When did it become breaking a rule
To say your name out loud in school
When your names the only one that sets us free
When did it become incorrect
To speak the truth about life and death
When your life gave us all eternity
Even if it gets me convicted
I'll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty
I'll rise up and honor you
I'll testify to all the good you do
Cause your Grace and your Mercy have overtaken me
So even if it gets me convicted
I'll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming Your ways
Your truth
Your life
I'll pay the price to be your light
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming Your ways
Your truth
Your life
I'll pay the price to be your light
Oh I want to be Guilty
To say your name out loud in school
When your names the only one that sets us free
When did it become incorrect
To speak the truth about life and death
When your life gave us all eternity
Even if it gets me convicted
I'll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty
I'll rise up and honor you
I'll testify to all the good you do
Cause your Grace and your Mercy have overtaken me
So even if it gets me convicted
I'll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming Your ways
Your truth
Your life
I'll pay the price to be your light
If serving you's against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I'll stand right before the jury
If saying I believe is out of line
If I'm judged cause I'm gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I want to be Guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming Your ways
Your truth
Your life
I'll pay the price to be your light
Oh I want to be Guilty

Worship Wednesdays - Through it All
I am really excited about this song today. It has been one of my favorite and go to listen to a lot lately. I have found that sometime life can knock you down. You loose someone you love. You get hurt by people. You feel like the world is falling apart. Just know that no matter what God has been with you through it all. Life isn't easy and sometime I feel like I have had enough. One promise I hold on to is that God will always be with me. I hope this song encourages you today.
There are days I've taken more than I can give
And there are choices that I made
That I wouldn't make again
I've had my share of laughter
Of tears and troubled times
This is has been the story of my life
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy, I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
You were there when it all came down on me
And I was blinded by my fear
And I struggled to believe
But in those unclear moments
You were the one keeping me strong
This is how my story's always gone
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy, I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Through all of it
And this is who You are
More constant than the stars up in the sky
All these years of our lives
I, I look back and I see You
Right now I still do
And I'm always going to
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy
I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
And there are choices that I made
That I wouldn't make again
I've had my share of laughter
Of tears and troubled times
This is has been the story of my life
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy, I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
You were there when it all came down on me
And I was blinded by my fear
And I struggled to believe
But in those unclear moments
You were the one keeping me strong
This is how my story's always gone
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy, I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Through all of it
And this is who You are
More constant than the stars up in the sky
All these years of our lives
I, I look back and I see You
Right now I still do
And I'm always going to
I have won and I have lost
I got it right sometimes
But sometimes I did not
Life's been a journey
I've seen joy
I've seen regret
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it
Oh and You have been my God
Through all of it

Worship Wednesday - Christ Is Enough
I know that today's post is late but things have been crazy busy here today and I wanted to make sure that when I wrote this post it would have my full attention. With that being said let's get back to our regular scheduled program (post I guess I should say).
Christ is Enough has to be one of my favorite songs. As the next several weeks lead up to Easter you will see that I will post about songs that have to do with Easter.
One thing about this song is that for me nothing will satisfy me or give me the hope then Christ. He is enough for me and because of him I am free. Hope this song encourages you.

Worship Wednesdays - Flawless
So I know this is late but I didn't want to forget to post today. The song I am going to share today is one of my favorites. It's called Flawless by MercyMe. I love that no matter what the cross made us flawless. It doesn't matter that we have hurt, scars, or bruises. God's love is unconditional! Just wanted to share this song with you. Enjoy!
There’s got to be more
Than going back and forth
From doing right to doing wrong
‘Cause we were taught that’s who we are
Come on get in line right behind me
You along with everybody
Thinking there’s worth in what you do
Then Like a hero who takes the stage when
We’re on the edge of our seats saying it’s too late
Well let me introduce you to amazing grace
No matter the bumps
No matter the bruises
No matter the scars
Still the truth is
The cross has made
The cross has made you flawless
No matter the hurt
Or how deep the wound is
No matter the pain
Still the truth is
The cross has made
The cross has made you flawless
Could it possibly be
That we simply can’t believe
That this unconditional
Kind of love would be enough
To take a filthy wretch like this
And wrap him up in righteousness
But that’s exactly what He did
No matter the bumps
No matter the bruises
No matter the scars
Still the truth is
The cross has made
The cross has made you flawless
No matter the hurt
Or how deep the wound is
No matter the pain
Still the truth is
The cross has made
The cross has made you flawless
Take a breath smile and say
Right here right now I’m ok
Because the cross was enough
Then Like a hero who takes the stage when
We’re on the edge of our seats saying it’s too late
Well let me introduce you to grace grace
God’s grace
No matter the bumps
