A Drop In The Ocean

Verse 1

There’s a wind blowin’ across this country

And I pray it will make you change your mind

It’s the wind of God’s holiness arising

A new season – a new time

Verse 2

God is calling out to this nation

To set our eyes on the Cross

Where Jesus bled and died, being crucified

What He wants now is our whole heart.

Chorus

But it has to start with you and me

I know it seems we’re just a drop in the ocean

But a ripple begins with stone in the sea

Thrown with a forward motion

Verse 3

So when you wake up and ‘fore your feet hit the floor

Surrender your day to God

Ask Him to guide your steps thru the day

And lead you thru the open doors

Bridge

Remember that your life’s not your own

And eternity’s a heartbeat away

Be thankful for the seeds He has grown

And seek first His Kingdom today

Repeat Chorus

Ending

So let’s throw some stones in the ocean.

A Call To War

Verse 1

When will we stop living so selfishly

We are not our own Christ died to set us free

We’re not to live for this life or what’s supposed to be

Our souls belong to the worthy One

Who hung on Calvary’s tree

To set us free

Chorus

We’re not serving Satan,

Let’s put down his weapons of war

Discouragement, gossip, lust and much more!

Dust off your Bible and pick up the holy Sword!

Join the heavenly ranks and prepare to go to war

For our Lord!

Verse 2

We believe the lie that’s it’s all about us today

Without Christ we’d die and simply wither away

But He loves us, and calls us,

And melts our hearts of stone

He gives our lives new purpose

When we follow Him alone!

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

Greater is Christ within us,

Then the evil that’s in the world

It’s time we take back holy ground

We’ve given to the king of this world

God’s Word proclaims

We’re not princes and priests to come

But now and even more –

We wield the very power of God!

Like Every Man

Verse 1

I’ve been walking this road like every man

Go to work try to make a stand, but I’m sinking                  

There’s gotta be something more to this life                                               

Two kids, a house and a wife and I’m thinking

Chorus 1

Here I am walking this road like every man

Here I stand though at times I’ve been known to fall

What happens when I get to the end of this road I’m on

I wanna know, that’s all.

Verse 2

I like to think of myself as a family man

Go to church whenever I can but I’m sinking

Well the preacher stood up with his Bible in hand

He said “God’s  got a purpose for your life and a plan”.

And I’m thinking.

Repeat Chorus 1

Verse 3

Now I might not have made it home last night

Big ol’ rig went straight thru the light - And I’m screaming!

So Lord this might be my last chance

I’ve got nothing to lose – I’ll take that stance

For myself, my kids and my wife - Jesus, come, be Lord of my life

Repeat Chorus 1

Bridge

Now I’m changing, You’re rearranging – me

I’m a new man in God’s hand - Keep working on me.

Chorus 2

Here I am walking this road like every man

Here I stand though at times I’ve been known to fall

What happens when I get to the end of this road I’m on

Now I know…God’s all.

Why do I get up every morning, when the world crashes and burns

Around me? Repeat Chorus

Where is your God, has He forgotten the words to His song?

By day He commands His love and at night His song is with me

And I shall hope in my God for He is right here with me.

Veiling eyes that once did see

Share Christ so the blind will see.

Position Yourself To Pray 

Verse 1

God does not like to share His glory. God will never share His throne.

It was pride that changed creation’s story  - and left us all alone.

Every chapter of life has been the same since Eden

When sin entered the heart and soul of every man

But God so loved the world that He took us

Out of the grip of death’s dark hand

Turn around, turn around it is Christ alone who saves

Turn around, turn around oh how God loves you so

Give your life to Jesus and you’ll never be alone!

Another road than the one you are on?

Take the road that leads to life, don’t be mistaken

Pride goes before a fall

Ending

Give your life to Jesus and you’ll stand next to His throne!

Let Us All

Verse 1

People are blind to their sinful state and God I know I’ve been one

To judge and blame, but not my sin to take to the Cross of Your risen Son

Lord please heal our nation, forgive us for all we’ve done

Let us confess our sin and invite You in-You’re our only hope Jesus!

Verse 2

He has called us to be humble – He has called us to be meek

To lead the world not in armaments, but to the Prince of Peace

Train us Lord to love every man and to live for You alone.

Chorus

Let us all come back to the Lord!

Kneel down and give your heart away

To Christ the King Ruler of everything

Surrender your lives and be saved!

When the Word of God is lived and preached

Some believe and some wonder

Whatever your decision, on the judgment seat

God will decide, God will thunder

For those with faith in Christ will receive

The crown of life head into glory

But those who waited too long or said no to the King,

That’s a very sad story Repeat Chorus

Bridge

The slate will be wiped clean as if they never existed

Romans, Cretans most of Man, thrown into a fiery cistern

Judgment is coming to the whole wide world, no one will escape that day

But God in His great mercy, has provided a way to be saved

So take some time, but be quick to think,

Who you will serve, be still, choose a master

I pray you’ll choose Christ and His eternal joy

And avoid the final disaster

Repeat Chorus

Solid Ground

Verse 1

With our nation beyond broke

And storms on the horizon

Systems  shutting down

And no safe place to hide

Who can save this nation,

Our present generation,

A president, a talk show host

Or our own national pride

Chorus

If there ever was a time for a hero

To step into the world it’s right now

To restore our hope in country

And teach us what the flag still means

And place our feet back on solid ground.

Verse 2

I believe I know of such a hero

He may not be as we desire

For His Kingdom isn’t of this world

He’ll change your life and set your soul on fire

Yes, He may not be the hero we perceived

But when it counts He’s all we’ll ever need

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

More than two thousand years ago

He became the greatest hero

When He died and rose up from the grave.

So take up the Cross of Christ

With His Spirit deep inside

And be a hero in someone else’s life.

Verse 3

God forgive us for forgetting

Your love for us we cry

When on the Cross Your only Son

Gave up His very life

Not to restore our nation

But for our souls salvation

Please help us to surrender

Our hearts and very lives Repeat Chorus

By Michael McIntyre  Ó 4/20/2010

 

There Is A Reason 

Verse 1

There is a reason that the dark turns to light

That the dead come to life and live again

There is a reason that what was broken’s made whole

The wounded soul’s welcomed home with outstretched hands

There is a reason

Verse 2

There is a reason that hope’s on the move

The rough ways made smooth and He leads us

There is a reason that we can believe

That every prayer He receives, He answers.

There is a reason

Chorus

Jesus, no longer crucified, at the Father’s right side, He is risen

Jesus, Strong on His throne, He calls all His own to love!

There is a reason

Verse 3

There is a reason God turns evil to good

The cheater knows that he should get right with the Lord

There is a reason the child runs from her home

And their father runs down the road to find her

There is a reason

Bridge

For nothing is impossible with God, His ways are higher than ours

By faith we’ll swim the raging river. Joy will fill us as we live it.

Christ, in our hearts our song!

There is a reason!

Verse 4

There is a reason Jesus is coming again

It’s all part of His plan to redeem us

There is a reason our eternal home’s on the way

Love’s made a way as He hung on the Cross for us!

He is the reason!             Repeat Chorus

Romans Eight

Chorus

If God is for us who can be against us

He who did not, spare His own Son

But gave Him up for us all, how will He not also

With Him, give us all things.

When all else fails and all seems lost

He’s gone before us and paid the cost

Even for our darkest days

He paid it all, on the hard wood of the Cross!

Neither death nor life or anything in all creation!

Didn’t stop ‘til I got home

Yeah, when I ran thru the door there was a party goin’ on for me!

And I’ve been home for so long now, that I never wanna leave

Verse 1

Everyday’s a new beginning and tomorrows just the same

There, there will be no more sinning, filled with love and there’s no shame

Suffering they say makes stronger, the one in You who does abide

I can feel You in my heart Lord, as You run with me tonite

Jesus, You’re my only Savior. Love me tonite!

Down the road God brought His healing. Now this song has different words.

Surrounded by my eternal family, I behold Your eyes and scars!

In the heart of the Savior from the Cross

Bleeding dying counting all the cost

Our great Redeemer to the end

Gave His very life so that we would be with Him

Forever in the heart of the Savior

He is our great example of how to live by faith

Verse 2

In the heart of the Savior so dear to Him

Is each soul who surrenders so new life can now begin

And the chains that tightened in which we were bound

Have been broken by the Holy One who laid His life down

It’s written in the heart of the Savior

Because of His great love for us we are not consumed

Great is His faithfulness we have been rescued

Great is His faithfulness we have been rescued
