I belong to Jesus Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! Sweetest Name on earth, Amazing Grace! How sweet the sound All my life long I had panted Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine God the Creator became a God-man Once I was bound by sins galling fetters God has saved me from the world Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing In a low dungeon, hope we had none This is my wonderful story Many weary years I vainly sought a spring Deep and wide Once far from God and dead in sin
Call, call, won't you call Jesus' name Exercise the spirit! In the word of God I found it Now Christ is the life-giving Spirit It's time to touch our spirit Calling O Lord Jesus Now the Lord is the Spirit that's how There are three kinds of life Th' anointing's here!

1 A certain man was going down From Jerusalem to Jericho, Getting farther away from God; To this place of curse hed go. 2 And as he went, among the robbers he fell Who stripped and beat him til he bled, And having taken everything that he owned, They left him lying there half dead. 3 A certain priest was also going down, On that same road to Jericho. He saw him and passed on the opposite side. A Levite did the same also.

He came through human living, Observed our dire condition, Then, moved with deep compassion, He died and rose to save! 2 He came and bound our wounds up; He healed these damaged persons. He poured in oil and wine His Spirit and His life divine. He placed us on His donkey To carry us so lowly, And brought us to the church life With blessing for our care. 3 We love this dear Man-Savior, Divine One, fully human Whose tender care, so merciful And bountiful to save Condemned and dying sinners, Reveals the highest standard Of His morality seen in His precious, saving grace.

1 The Lord lives inside of me And He's using my spirit as a beachhead To spread Himself into every part of my mind, emotion, and will. He sowed Himself as the seed into my innermost part And the kingdom is here, today, now inside of me. And my heart is now His home. 2 Every time I say Amen! To His Spirit and walk by my spirit, The kingdom seed grows and develops deep inside of me. On the outside, it may seem that theres no change in me But Im not the same, cause as the seed grows in me, Inside Im becoming God.

For pardon which Thy Blood hath bought, Christ crucified, I come. 3 Weary of selfishness and pride, False pleasures gone, vain hopes denied, Deep in Thy wounds my shame to hide, Christ crucified, I come. 4 Thou knowest all my griefs and fears, Thy grace abused, my misspent years; Yet now to Thee, for cleansing tears, Christ crucified, I come.
Christ, the real Life-giver, gives life to me, And every time I call on Him, His Spirit sets me free. Christ, the real Life-giver, lives now in me. No longer is He just a name, But my reality!
Gospel
5 I would not, if I could, conceal The ills which only Thou canst heal; So to the Cross, where sinners kneel, Christ crucified, I come. 6 Wash me, and take away each stain, Let nothing of my sin remain; For cleansing, though it be through pain, Christ crucified, I come. 7 To share with Thee Thy life divine, Thy very likeness to be mine, Since Thou hast made my nature Thine, Christ crucified, I come. 8 To be what Thou wouldst have me be, Accepted, sanctified in Thee, Through what Thy grace shall work in me, Christ crucified, I come.

1 In man's labour and his search for meaning Everything is vanity of vanities There is nothing new, there is nothing new, Nothing under the sun, nothing under the sun. Man's pleasures fail to satisfy, Man's pleasures fail to satisfy. 2 God implanted in man's heart eternity A divinely implanted sense of purpose Working through the ages, working through the ages; Which nothing under the sun, no nothing under the sun, But only God can satisfy, But only God can satisfy. 3 Song of Songs speaks of the King of Majesty Whose purpose, plan, and goal is that He finds a bride, Becoming a country man, pursuing a country girl, Attracted and charmed by Him, becoming the same as He. Now she is fully satisfied, And God is fully satisfied. 4 Praise the Triune God who came to be a man. Constituting man with His divine life, That we may be made God In life and in nature. To express Him corporately, express Him eternally. Completely satisfying God, Completely satisfying God.

Just by calling Jesus, Jesus, Jesus! Every moment, each day! Calling on the name of Jesus We're finding is the way. It's Jesus! Lord Jesus! 2 Even though we love the Lord so much, Somehow, it seems we get out of touch With Jesus, how can we be freed from such distress? 3 Sometimes we know we arent being real. Then times, we just live by how we feel. Is there some way we could ever deal with self? 4 Christians, scattered throughout all the earth Are wondring Lord, where is Your bride of worth? How can all those of the second birth be one?

Wherever you go, He is there! Oh well never rest, till we love Him the best, This lovely One has us in His heart 2 It is also by Your mercy weve seen Something so deep in Your heart You came to earth and sold all You had To buy this great pearl of worth. Save me Lord, from chasing vanity, From selfish dreams, from all thats binding me Theres nothing so high, in this universe As giving ourselves for whats in Your heart. 3 You have purposed in time that Youll build Your church That nothing prevails over her. As we flee to meet with the saints, Youre building Christ into our hearts. Oh this is not an outward activity! A meaningful life, one day all men will see Oh Lord stir our hearts, to never depart, To give all we are for Christ and the church.

Call His name, call His name, Call His name, call His name, You just call upon His name and let Him in.
4 O the joy of having all in Jesus! What a balm the broken heart to heal! Ne'er a sin so great, but He'll forgive it, Nor a sorrow that He does not feel! If I have but Jesus, only Jesus, Nothing else in all the world beside O then everything is mine in Jesus; For my needs and more He will provide.

If I gained the world, but lost the Savior, Would my gain be worth the lifelong strife? Are all earthly pleasures worth comparing For a moment with a Christ-filled life? 2 Had I wealth and love in fullest measure, And a name revered both far and near, Yet no hope beyond, no harbor waiting, Where my storm-tossed vessel I could steer; If I gained the world, but lost the Savior, Who endured the cross and died for me, Could then all the world afford a refuge, Whither, in my anguish, I might flee? 3 O what emptiness! without the Savior 'Mid the sins and sorrows here below! And eternity, how dark without Him! Only night and tears and endless woe! What, though I might live without the Savior, When I come to die, how would it be? O to face the valley's gloom without Him! And without Him all eternity!

Teach me, Lord, some rapturous measure, Meet for me Thy grace to prove, While I sing the countless treasure Of my God's unchanging love. 3 Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it; Prone to leave the God I love: Take my heart, oh, take and seal it With Thy Spirit from above. Rescued thus from sin and danger, Purchased by the Savior's blood, May I walk on earth a stranger, As a son and heir of God.

Of the lot that lies before thee Through the coming busy day; Whether sunbeams promise brightness, Whether dim forebodings fall, Be thy dawning glad or gloomy, Go to Jesus, tell Him all. 2 In the calm of sweet communion Let thy daily work be done; In the peace of soul-outpouring Care be banished, patience won; And if earth with its enchantments Seek thy spirit to enthrall, Ere thou listen, ere thou answer, Turn to Jesus, tell Him all. 3 Then, as hour by hour glides by thee, Thou wilt blessed guidance know, Thine own burdens being lightened, Thou canst bear anothers woe; Thou canst help the weak ones onward, Thou canst raise up those that fall: But remember, while thou servest, Still tell Jesus, tell Him all. 4 And if weariness creeps oer thee As the day wears to its close, Or if sudden fierce temptation Bring thee face to face with foes; In thy weakness, in thy peril, Raise to heaven a truthful call; Strength and calm for every crisis Come, in telling Jesus all.

1 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, Thou hast won each love from me; Who like Thee so fair and comely? Who like Thee so sweet and lovely? Matchless One, unrivaled beauty, None can e'er compete with Thee! 2 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, Gladly will I hear Thy call; Since Thy voice my heart hath entered, I from all things could but sever; Void are all my other seekings, Every pride hath disappeared. 3 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, How can I sill stubborn be? At Thy feet cast all my hard'nings, And return with songs and singings; 'Tis my love to be Thy bondslave, 'Tis my joy to Thee obey. 4 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, Thy way only will I choose; Though in tears while I'm obeying, Yet I would not change my standing; All I long for is Thy pleasure, And the peace Thy love would bring. 5 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, When Thy presence does depart, Seems the dawn has lost its traces, Hidden are my smiling faces; All I yearn for is Thy coming And Thy presence' sweet embrace. 6 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, Can I tell it all to Thee? Thou my love and satisfaction, Thou my everlasting portion; Thou art all that I desire, Nothing else I would pursue. 7 Dear Lord Jesus, precious Jesus, All I have I give to Thee; Who like Thee so fair and comely? Who like Thee so sweet and lovely? Matchless One, unrivaled beauty, None can e'er compete with Thee!
Lord, I love You and treasure You. Lord, I choose You and respond to You. You're my everything, You're above all. You're my Husband, and my rest, and my all in all. 3 The eternal God entered and stepped into time. For this He needed persons to carry the line-Those who fulfilled His plan, to bring God into man, Bringing divinity into humanity. 4 In the universe this is the greatest event, That is Christ's incarnation in His first advent. Ruth became an ancestress in this mystery-God and man to be mingled as one entity. 5 God had promised the seed of a woman for man That would crush Satan's head and redeem fallen man, To make God and man one, what a glory to Him! We are qualified now to partake of Him. 6 We are Moabites too, constituted with sin. We are under God's wrath and His condemnation. But through Christ's redemption, He's our portion we claim. In this organic union, we're married to Him.

You would not let me go; The blood and water flowed from Your side, Constraining me to tell You: 3 Thank You Lord, You opened my blind eyes to see. I was lame, but now I can walk; You healed me! My leprosy, Lord, You cleansed all away; My ears were opened to hear Your voice, And now I follow You cause: 4 Sometimes Lord, Im drawn off by my selfish cares; And the world it draws me with glitter and glare. O Lord, Youve trapped me. Dont let me go. Kiss me and woo me, and win my heart, So, I will always tell You: 5 Keep my heart so soft, Lord, so open to You; It would be the good ground to bear fruit for You; Capture my friends, Lord, and build us, I pray; Your Bride, wed match You in every way, And, corporately we tell You: Jesus, come quickly, Were waiting for You; Were the virgins to You, So single and true; Forever and ever Your counterpart true.

Now I am joined to Him, Together were living; I love to enjoy Him, For Ive been forgiven. 4 His love is so tender, To Him Ill surrender, His names full of savor I gladly call in prayer; His persons so charming, My heart ever winning; Ill hold back no longer, Ill love Him forever.
That I to my own self may die And rise to Thy life Divine. 3 To bring thee to thy God, Love takes the shortest route; The way which knowledge leads, Is but a roundabout. Drive out from thee the world, And then thy heart shall be Filled with the love of God, And holy like as He.

1 Father, I know that all my life is portioned out for me, And the changes that are sure to come I do not fear to see; But I ask Thee for a present mind intent on pleasing Thee. 2 I ask Thee for a thoughtful love, through constant watching wise, To meet the glad with joyful smiles, and to wipe the weeping eyes; And a heart at leisure from itself, to soothe and sympathize. 3 I would not have the restless will that hurries to and fro, Seeking for some great thing to do or secret thing to know; I would be treated as a child, and guided where I go. 4 Wherever in the world I am, in whatsoer estate, I have a fellowship with hearts to keep and cultivate; And a work of lowly love to do for the Lord whom I wait. 5 So I ask Thee for the daily strength, to none that ask denied. And a mind to blend with outward life while keeping at Thy side; Content to fill a little space, if Thou be glorified. 6 There are briers besetting every path that call for patient care; There is a cross in every slot, and an earnest need for prayer; But a lowly heart that leans on Thee is happy anywhere. 7 And if some things I do ask in my cup of blessing be, I would have my spirit filled the more with grateful love to Thee. More careful, not to serve Thee much, but to please Thee perfectly. 8 In a service which Thy will appoints there are no bonds for me; For my inmost heart is taught the truth that makes Thy children free And a life of self-renounced love is a life of liberty.

Few will suffer loss. For the dear sake of the Master, Counting all but dross, For the dear sake of the Master,
D D7 G
Counting all but dross. 2 Many sit at Jesus' table, Few will fast with Him, When the sorrow-cup of anguish Trembles to the brim. Few watch with Him in the garden, Who have sung the hymn, Few watch with Him in the garden, Who have sung the hymn. 3 Many will confess His wisdom, Few embrace His shame. Many, should He smile upon them, Will His praise proclaim; Then, if for a while He leave them, They desert His name, Then, if for a while He leave them, They desert His name. 4 But the souls who love Him truly, Let woe come or bliss, These will count their dearest hearts' blood Not their own, but His. Savior, Thou who thus hast loved me, Give me love like this, Savior, Thou who thus hast loved me, Give me love like this.

Even though I have not seen Him in such an outward way "Whom having not seen, I love, I love, oh so much. And by having His life, yes, I believe." 3 Day by day I look forward to That time I spend with You. Just as Mary poured her love out, O Lord, I would too. Grant me, Lord, a heart that's single and true. And a daily life that's living just by You. 4 So when daily I see trials And tribulations sore, May I put my trust in You, Lord, "For Christ has gone before" And open to Your living Word, Receiving faith Reach me, Lord, with Your mercy and Your grace.

I long to flee this stagnant rut; My soul, my prison, deadened lot, Which end is just to taste Your wrath; So set me on the narrow path. Thorns and thistles may line this road But it leads me to the mutual abode. Lift me up with Your mighty hand Above this frenzied earthly land. Set me on the mount to see What the world can offer me; Till I see the vanity from on high And earthly desires I bid goodbye And set my eyes on You.
My heart shall be Thy throne, My life I give, henceforth to live, O Christ, for Thee alone. 2 Living for Jesus who died in my place, Bearing on Calvry my sin and disgrace; Such love constrains me to answer His call, Follow His leading and give Him my all. 3 Living for Jesus wherever I am, Doing each duty in His holy name; Willing to suffer affliction and loss, Deeming each trial a part of my cross. 4 Living for Jesus through earths little while, My dearest treasure, the light of His smile; Seeking the lost ones He died to redeem, Bringing the weary to find rest in Him.

1 No mortal tongue can eer describe The freedom of the soul, When passed beyond all earthly bribe To Gods complete control. All things are his, yes, life, and death, Things present or to come; In Christ he draws in peace each breath, In Christ he finds his home. 2 When such as we the King can choose, To share with Him His throne, Tis passing strange that we refuse To be our Lords alone. O never speak of sacrifice! A privilege untold Is to be His at any price, In Calvrys hosts enrolled. 3 Arise! the holy bargain strike The fragment for the whole All men and all events alike Must serve the ransomed soul. All things are yours when you are His, And He and you are one; A boundless life in Him there is, And kingdom yet to come.
She took opportunity To love You, Lord, with her best. Like her, Lord, I too would pour My love and all that I have. 2 As I love You I set my being, My spirit, my soul and body, With my heart, my mind and my strength, Absolutely on Thee. Lord, I let my entire being Be occupied by Thee. As I enter in Your heart, I sense a fellowship sweet. Occupied and lost in You, My Lord, You're my everything, Fellowship so intimate; In spirit, Lord, I enjoy Thee. 3 Lord there's none in heav'n nor on earth That I desire but Thee. Though my heart and flesh faileth, Lord, Thou ever my portion will be. All is vanity, all is dung, I count all other things loss. Everything else drains my love, But You have captured my heart. Lord, I've seen Thy preciousness, Thy worth, Thy reality; Now, my Lord, I must confess, My heart is only for Thee.

There's nothing that compares to my destiny To be thoroughly filled with the Lord. 2 Now although I'm still kind of small, And the future is in front of me. In my heart I've heard the Lord's call, Just to follow Him absolutely. Though the path may be holding Much joy or much pain, What matters is that more of Him I would gain, Regardless what happens, I never would change. 'Cause I'm made to be filled with the Lord.

2 The Lord chose you to be a part Of His great plan, His work of art. What wonder! What a privilege To satisfy His yearning to share all He is Divine, unsearchable riches! What wisdom, multifarious expressed? 3 As we enjoy and enter in To all He is then well begin To understand the feeling in His heart toward us. What love that motivated Him! To come to us, despite our sin. Why did He go and sell all that He had?
Draw me nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord,

Treasuring Your face staying in Your presence, Lord Een the very index of Your eye would we obey. Raise up some to meet Your need, some Nazarites, To bring in Your kingdom on earth today, Taking You as King that You might return To usher in the end of the age.

can give comfort or cheer, When sighing and weeping encompasses me, Lord, still all my sighing and wipe every tear. 2 Each time when I dream of the goodness of life, I pray Thee, dear Lord, that Thou in it may be; O do not allow me to choose by myself, Nor seek any pleasure that's other than Thee. Each night when alone in the stillness I lie, I pray Thee, Lord Jesus, that Thou wilt be near; Each morning ere dawn comes, while still in my sleep, Then whispering call me and open my ear. 3 Each time, Lord, when reading in Thy holy Word, I pray that Thy glory may shine on each line, That clearly I'll see what a Savior I have And how great salvation that Thou hast made mine. When helpless I come, Lord, to kneel at Thy throne, I pray Thee to hear me and grant me Thy grace; If thru my shortcomings Thou hear not my prayer, Withdraw not Thy presence, O hide not Thy face.
1 Live Thyself, Lord Jesus, through me, For my very life art Thou; Thee I take to all my problems As the full solution now. Live Thyself, Lord Jesus, through me, In all things Thy will be done; I but a transparent vessel To make visible the Son. 2 Consecrated is Thy temple, Purged from every stain and sin; May Thy flame of glory now be Manifested from within. Let the earth in solemn wonder See my body willingly Offered as Thy slave obedient, Energized alone by Thee. 3 Every moment, every member, Girded, waiting Thy command; Underneath the yoke to labor Or be laid aside as planned. When restricted in pursuing, No disquiet will beset; Underneath Thy faithful dealing Not a murmur or regret. 4 Ever tender, quiet, restful, Inclinations put away, That Thou may for me choose freely As Thy finger points the way. Live Thyself, Lord Jesus, through me, For my very life art Thou; Thee I take to all my problems As the full solution now.

Oh, purify us, Lord, today; Wash all our natural life away. Speak now Thy words in us, And make us glorious. O Lord, do speak in us today. 3 O Lord, do nourish us; You are the food we need; As we are eating You, well be transformed indeed; Were fully satisfied as on Yourself we feed, So nourish us, O Lord, we pray. O Lord, do nourish us today As all our self You wash away. Not only purify, But fill and satisfy; O Lord, do nourish us today. 4 O Lord, do cherish us, as on Thyself we feed; Warm us so tenderly and meet our every need.

Oh, hold us close to Thee And cherish tenderly; O Lord, do cherish us today. 5 Lord, make us glorious, by all Your inner work, Not glory for ourselves, but glory for the church; That You may have Your Bride, thus ending all your search.

Of God-man life; You're all I need. In all my heart, I give You ground. Lord, may your life in me abound! 2 My heart has no desire to stay, On hardened ground, in the world's way. Satan no more shall steal Your Word, I'll move my heart where You are heard! 3 I want to deal with rocks in me, From hidden sins, I would be free. My heart I would clear up through prayer, I'll gain more depth to root You there! 4 The choking thorns, us barren make, The life seed soon they'll overtake. Riches, anxiety reject, Just for God's growth the ground protect!
Scatter all my night, Lord, And everything make bright, Lord, For this I pray to Thee. 3 I know Thee even less; In doctrine, shallowly; True revelation lack Of Thy reality. 4 As for Thy life within, In darkness I mistake If spirit or the flesh, One for the other take.

All things Thou reconciledst To God by Thy shed blood, To thus present us holy And blameless unto God. 4 In Thee Gods fulness dwelleth, Thou art Gods mystery; The treasures of all wisdom And knowledge are in Thee. Thou art the hope of glory, In us Thou dost abide; In Thee we are perfected And God is satisfied. 5 All things are but a shadow Which unto us reveal Thyself, in whom were rooted, The only One thats real. Enjoying all Thy riches, Thy fulness we will be; Well hold Thee, as Thy Body, And grow with God in Thee. 6 With Thee in God were hidden, Thou art in us our life; Thy peace in us presiding, We rest from all our strife. In the new man, Thy Body, Thou art the all in all; Our all-inclusive Savior, Thyself well ever call

When in flesh abiding, Adam I express, But when in the spirit Christ is manifest. 2 When I am in Adam, though I may not sin, Unto death, a sinner, sentenced I have been; When in Christ I need not righteously to act, Im already righteous, justified in fact. 3 In the flesh I need no effort to express Marks of Adams nature and its sinfulness; In the spirit I need not to strive or strain, I can live as He is and in spirit reign. 4 Thru my death with Christ, from Adam I am free, Thru my life with Christ, new life is given me! Minding not the flesh, old Adam cannot move, Minding just the spirit, life divine I prove. 5 Minding just the spirit is Gods saving way, Minding just the spirit, Christ we will display; Minding just the spirit, we can overcome, Minding just the spirit, we the race may run. 6 Minding just the spirit, we the cross will know, And His resurrection powr thru us will flow; Minding just the spirit, Christ will live thru me, And His life within will reach maturity. 7 In the spirit Christ is life and all to me, Strengthening and blessing all-inclusively; Living in the spirit, holiness I prove, And the triune God within my heart doth move.

The gospel's light erased My hist'ry vain. 2 Day 2, did come and go, But one thing I did know: Things earthly lost their glow; They're dead to me. The atmosphere expanse Lifted my circumstance, That life may thus advance For growth in me. 3 Day 3, the land so dry Emerged from waters high. Grass, herbs, and trees did rise; Your life had sprung. My death You now recede. As life do rise in me; Rise more 'til there's no sea Within my being. 4 Day 4, the sun did shine With wings of healing light. The moon was shining, too, The church, my home. The saints as stars with light Shine midst this dark'ning night, Setting my feet aright To walk Your way. 5 Day 5, the fish arrived Against the worldly tide. Death waters they survived, With life empow'red. From fish to bird I soar By waiting on You, Lord. Your grace to me affords Strength o'er all things. 6 Day 6, from air to ground, Cattle and beasts around, Then all creation crowned With man like You. Through growth expressing Thee With Your authority, I'd reach maturity, Your purpose gained.

Thy flight, where wilt Thou stay? On, on! our Lord is sweeter far Today than yesterday.

And, Lord, how can I Turn away from Your love? The eternal love which You have for me? I give You my heart; Lord, spread in evry part Til my whole heart belongs to You. 2 Lord, gain my heart so that It is single and pure for You. No other love, Lord, would I know. Lord, I am so in love with You, For You are so lovely. My everything, my all in all. And, Lord, I really want to know This Person inside of me. Lord, keep my heart open to You. Keep flowing Your life, Into me that I would grow, And be saturated with You.
1 Day by day, bit by bit, life will grow as is fit, Increasing gradually until, However imperceptibly, Your life matures within me. 2 I would be desperately, constantly, patiently, Drawing each breath of life from You, Lord; Knowing that every day, while I breathe, Your life will permeate me. 3 Every day, may I rest; knowing that each bequest, Matches my daily need exactly; Jesus Christ intercedes for me, A member of His Body.

Through her living in Christ's ascension Her dear heart is now His home. She's become the sanctuary of God. 3 Who is this woman I am seeing? Shining forth as the moon and sun. She is absolutely heavenly, From the old creation free; Overcoming all to live within the veil. 4 An army terrible with banners Christ's lovers overcome to be. Those attracted by His beauty, Fully trusting in His power. Her romance is now the dances of two camps. 5 The Shulammite, His duplication, His counterpart has now become.

3 To Thee I owe my wealth, and friends, And health, and safe abode; Thanks to Thy name for meaner things, But they are not my God, But they are not my God. 4 How vain a toy is glittering wealth, If once compared to Thee! Or whats my safety, or my health, Or all my friends to me. 5 Were I possessor of the earth, And called the stars my own, Without Thy graces and Thyself, I were a wretch undone. 6 Let others stretch their arms like seas, And grasp in all the shore; Grant me the visits of Thy grace, And I desire no more.
Only You satisfy. 2 Lord, You are the living vine; In You we would abide. Only You give life divine; Only You satisfy. So we must praise and we must sing, And we must testify: Lord, You are the only One; Only You satisfy.

2 Take time to behold Him, The world rushes on; Spend much time in secret With Jesus alone. By looking to Jesus Like Him thou shalt be; Thy friends, in thy conduct, His likeness shall see. 3 Take time to behold Him, Let Him be thy guide; And run not before Him Whatever betide; In joy or in sorrow Still follow thy Lord, And, looking to Jesus, Still trust in His Word. 4 Take time to behold Him, Be calm in thy soul, Each thought and each temper Beneath His control. Thus led by His Spirit To fountains of love, Thou then shalt be fitted His mercy to prove.

3 Death cannot hold the resurrection life, The more interred, the more it multiplies; All kinds of suffring only help it grow And fruits of life abundant realize. 4 Death cannot hold the resurrection life, Thru every block and barrier it breaks; Conquring the powr of darkness and of hell, It swallows death and victory partakes. 5 Death cannot hold the resurrection life, All of Gods fullness it will manifest; Gods righteousness and holiness it yields, His glorious image by it is expressed. 6 Oh, may I know this resurrection life, In every kind of death its powr outpoured, In my experience ever realize This life is nought but Christ my living Lord.
Tis the way of the Cross, Are you willing for this? What does bearing the Cross Mean to you?
Am B7 C Em D G D
You whove given yourself, Your all to God! To God are you wholly true? 2 As the voice of song and prayer we raise, How easy to say, We give all; Till some rougher cross lies just before, And sterner is dutys call. 3 Do you falter then, or, true to death, Just die on the cross in the way, Till the fulness of life from the Living One Is filling you day by day? 4 Tis the plan of life, for you die to live, One with Jesus crucified; With the life alone to be lived through you, Of the Risen, the Glorified.

From all its misery; Id henceforth be forever Completely filled with Thee. 2 Oh, Lord, how dry my heart is, It yearns and pants for Thee; The filling of Thy Spirit Is now my fervent plea. Within the smitten Rock, Lord, I would entirely hide; Pour thru Thy living water, Till I am satisfied.
1 Death cannot hold the resurrection life, The life of God eternal manifest; Tis uncreated, indestructible, Tis Christ Himself, Unconqurable expressed. 2 Death cannot hold the resurrection life, Though all its force against it may combine; Death only gives it opportunity To show the boundless powr of life divine.
3 How cold my heart has been, Lord, How slow obeying Thee; So fill me with Thy Spirit, I'll ne'er rebellious be. I lie upon Thy altar And dare not move away; Oh, may Thy flame descending Consume my all, I pray. 4 Oh, may Thy Cross within me Deepen its work and burn, In me enlarge Thy measure, And me to ashes turn. Oh, may Thy Spirit fill me Each day more than before, And may Thy living water On me and thru me pour.
4 First we must prepare the vessels That the Oil they may contain; Dig the valley full of ditches That they may be filled with Rain. First we must go thru the Jordan Ere anointed from above; First in death we must be baptized, Then experience the Dove. 5 When we see the ripened harvest Of the golden countryside, We may know that many seeds have Fallen to the earth and died. Ere the fruit of life may blossom, We must surely suffer death; If with Christ we've not been buried, We'll not feel the Spirit's breath. 6 Since it must be thus, I pray, Lord, Help me go the narrow way; Deal with pride and make me willing Thus to suffer, Thee t'obey. I for greater power pray not, Deeper death is what I need; All the meaning of the Cross, Lord, Work in mefor this I plead.

Full anointing to receive. 2 Christ, the Rock, must first be smitten, That the living water flow; Without death the Spirit's fullness Ne'er could dwell in man below. If with Christ we die completely, Willing thus our all to lose, He will clothe us with His power And to win the world will use. 3 First the altar, then the fire, If no loss, there'll be no gain; If our all has not been offered, To the throne we'll ne'er attain. If to sacrifice we're willing, All forsaking, God t'obey, He to us will be committed And thru us His pow'r display.
If no death, no life. 2 If Id have Christ formed within me, I must breathe my final breath, Live within the Crosss shadow, Put my soul-life eer to death. 3 If God thru th Eternal Spirit Nail me ever with the Lord; Only then as death is working Will His life thru me be poured.

3 Things that once were wild alarms Cannot now disturb my rest; Closed in everlasting arms, Pillowed on the loving breast. Oh, to lie forever here, Doubt and care and self resign, While He whispers in my ear, I am His, and He is mine. 4 His forever, only His: Who the Lord and me shall part?

Human lips can never utter All His wondrous tenderness. We can only praise and wonder And His Name forever bless, We can only praise and wonder And His Name forever bless.

My heart doth sing for joy; And sing I must, for Christ I have: Oh, what a Christ have I! 2 My Christ, He is the Lamb of God, Who full salvation brings; He is the Sun of Righteousness, With healing in His wings.
My Christ, He is the Tree of Life With fruit abundant, sweet; My hunger He doth satisfy; Of Him I daily eat. My Christ, He is the smitten Rock Whence living waters burst; He is the fountain in my heart Which quenches all my thirst. Christ is my life, my light, my way, My comfort and my health, My peace, my rest, my joy, my hope, My glory and my wealth. Christ is my wisdom and my powr, My boast and righteousness, My victry and redemption sure, My truth and holiness. Christ is my Savior, Shepherd, Lord, My Advocate above, My Counsellor, my Father, God, My Brother, Friend, and Love. Christ is my Captain and my Guard, My Teacher and my Guide, My Bridegroom, Master and my Head; In me doth He reside. Christ is my Prophet, Priest, and King; My Prophet full of sight; My Priest that stands twixt me and God, My King that rules with might.
15 Since such a treasure I possess, My heart doth sing for joy; And I must sing, and sing again; Oh, what a Christ have I!

As with the saints were meeting, Full released our spirits soar, For now our Lord is dearer Than He ever was before. 4 The Lord has made us one With Him for His recovery; The riches of this Christ, the church His fullness, men must see. Yes, all we have and all we are, We every day outpour For His tremendous purpose, Ever dearer than before.
10 Christ is the Author of my faith, And its Perfecter too, My Mediator, Guarantee, And faithful Witness true. 11 Christ is my everlasting home, My all-sufficient land; My fortress, tower, hiding-place, And my eternal stand. 12 Christ is my sabbath and new moon, My morning and my day, My age and my eternity That neer will pass away. 13 Christ is my trust and my desire, In comeliness replete, My satisfaction and delight, Who all my need doth meet. 14 My Christ, the all-inclusive One, My Christ what shall I call? He is the first, He is the last, My Christ is All in all.

1 Life is God the Father in Christ Jesus As the Spirit flowing into us. How enjoyable, this Person wonderful! Hes our life so rich and bountiful. 2 We experienced regeneration When we opened to this living One. We were born again; another life came in. Now it floods us till were full of Him. 3 He within us is the living Spirit In our spirit, flowing out of it Into all our heart, transforming every part By the life which He Himself imparts. 4 Now He must have our cooperation. We must set our mind upon the Son. We must turn away from all that leads astray, Till our mind is set on Him each day. 5 Lord, our human spirit now contains You. Still Your purpose in us You would do; If our wandering mind would leave old thoughts behind, Then Your life and peace in it well find. 6 Lord, we would our every thought be captured By the rich enjoyment in Your Word. In it were supplied, our mind there will abide, Till our thoughts are wholly sanctified. 7 Lets keep practicing the application Of this life by minding just the Son. Praise Him for the way to live by Him today! Lord, on You our minds will ever stay.

Here Im Yours, dear Lord, and You are mine. 3 Im a branch thats been, Lord, grafted in. Im supplied in You in this life union. Here Your riches, Lord, in this sweet life flow. As I dwell in You, I will surely grow. 4 As I dwell in You, and You in me, Here Im joined to You, Lord, practically. As I stay with You, as Youre with me, We will mingle, Lord, subjectively. 5 As Im loving You and enjoying You, Lord, You become in me the rhema word. Here Ill pray in You, as You pray in me. Youll bear fruit in me, Lord, abundantly. 6 As I dwell in You, Lord, Youre flowing through. Lord, Youre filling me, overflowing too. Here we all are one and expressing You.

Millions grasp and clutch at life, Wond'ring if there could be more; Such was I and would be, yet Mercy found me out somehow; With what gratefulness I say, "I'm in God's own family now." 3 How delightful 'tis to know; How subjective, real, and sweet Is this inward joy of grace We experience when we meet; Life abundant Jesus gives As my full reality; Praise You, Lord, it's really true, I'm in Your own family. 4 At the closing of this age, Just before Your kingdom's dawn, May You gain a people, Lord, For Your dwelling place, Your home. Since for me You gave Your all, Everything I lay aside; For Your church my all I'd give, That You would be satisfied.

Saturate and permeate us Till You fully have Your way. 2 Once we were in old Chaldea, Worshipping the idols there; But the God of glory called us, Saved us all from Satans snare. Get out, get out, from Chaldea, From that evil, foreign land.

God of glory, God of glory, Do appear to us each day. Call us out into Your building, Your desire on earth today.
2 These are the days, O saints, The heart of man it faints For Satans work thats seen throughout the land. So we must count all loss, Be one at any cost, And give our all for Gods recovery. 3 These are the days, my friend, The Spirits moving in To raise the standard up against the foe, To show the one new man According to His plan And draw this generation to Himself. 4 These are the latter days, Go forth and sound His praise, Proclaim to men the kingdom that shall come. The armys moving out, The enemy to rout, And Christ will gain His rightful place on earth.

Love's work in her produces No person of her own, But she becomes the city, Her person, Christ alone. 5 Christ is our coming Bridegroom; We are the church, His bride, Redeemed, regenerated, The issue of His side, In source, in life, in nature And person fully one, His counterpart forever, The New Jerusalem.
