Strong in the Lord (Jenny Phillips)

Transcription

1 Strong in the Lord With darkness growing around me I need to build my strength within I read the Savior s words more often Not just something I do now and then As I study His teachings more consistently I feel them becoming a part of me I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me Through His words/prayers I gain The armor I need To live valiantly Ready to battle with my shield and my sword I am strong when I am with the Lord I need the constant source of power That comes from praying faithfully I start my day with holy guidance And it changes the way that I live As I kneel and pray to God more deeply I feel His protective power within me Vocal by Chad Neth 1

2 Share His Light So many souls that need to know The knowledge that I hold So many hearts waiting in the dark Unsure of the way to go I ll have the courage To hold up His light Not afraid to invite Other s unto Christ I am making the choice To be a strong and devoted voice Too blessed to keep it inside So I will share His light The field is white, and I will testify I ll labor with all my might If I can help even just one life How great my joy shall be Vocal by Jenny Phillips 2

3 When People See Me I want the way I dress to show my light I want the Savior s love to catch their eyes I want goodness to be What people notice first in me I want to stand tall I want to stand confident That the way I dress reflects How much I love Him So the beauty in me Will always be true and deep I want His light shining brightly The things I wear show Who I am and where my heart is And I cannot forget Whose name it is that I represent I want the messages I send To point others back to Him I m trying to attract good things to me I m trying to help Other s thoughts stay clean I want His light shining brightly Vocal by Hayley Anderson 3

4 By the Way I Speak My words hold the power To lift up and to save Or to put down and degrade I am shaped by the things I say May the words I speak Be filled with kindness May my manner of speech Be cheerful and clean May my voice be a light That lifts people higher May I bring hope and love and trust May I bring peace By the way I speak (Humble, Patient, Hopeful, Honest) I always have the choice To be gentle and to praise Or to find fault and complain I show my heart by the things I say Vocal by Kara Duraccio 4

5 Better Than You Think You Are When you start to count All the ways you are weak When you re weighed down With all your shortcomings Let your heart recall Who you truly are You are capable, you are enough You are beautiful, you are loved Lift up your heart You re better than you think you are Your Savior knows The desires that you hold He sees you differently Who you once were and who you will be Don t get down on yourself When it s hard You re better than you think you are Don t forget to count All the good that you do Push back your doubts He believes in you And when you fall Seek the Savior s arms Just keep trying, and lean on Him You are destined for a victorious end Vocal by Rebecca Lee Hubbard 5

6 Savior I haven t been where I should be I call out for Him to rescue me I feel Him break the shackles from my feet I feel Him take the lashes As we leave the enemy How could a sinner deserve Anything as sweet as His mercy? He has rescued me, and I never want to leave Where He has brought me Where I am free And the brokenness in me is now mending As He is erasing, reclaiming, remaking me Rescuer, Restorer, Liberator Savior Though my sins were scarlet They re turning white as snow And He is filling up my cup Till it overflows And as I feel His merits making me enough I want to sing the song of redeeming love How could a beggar deserve To be given so much through His great love? Vocal by Jenny Phillips 6
