Songs to Praise God

Participant

Hi Beloved,
food for thought

CHILDREN LEARN WHAT THEY LIVE

If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn…
If a child lives with hostility, he learns to fight…
If a child lives with fear, he learns to be apprehensive…
If a child lives with pity, he learns to feel sorry for himself…
If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy…
If a child lives with jealousy, he learns what envy is…
If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty…
If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to be confident…
If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient …
If a child lives with praise, he learns to be appreciative…
If a child lives with acceptance , he learns to love…
If a child lives with approval, he learns to like himself…
If a child lives with recognition, he learns that it is good to have a goal…
If a child lives with sharing , he learns about generosity…
If a child lives with honesty and fairness, he learns what truth and justice are…
If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith in himself and those about him…
If a child lives with friendliness, he learns that the world is a nice place to live….
If you live with serenity, your child will live with peace of mind…
With What is Your Child Living ?

HOW GOOD AND HOW PLEASANT

How good and how pleasant for Brethren to dwell
Together in unity, so David did tell,
Like beautiful Music, a breathtaking view,
Like most precious ointment, like flesh morning dew.

That descended on the Mountain of Zion long before,
God commanded a blessing of life forever more,
How good and how pleasant for Brethren to be,
Dwelling safely together in sweet hormony.

Now Jesus was praying with fervent desire,
That all who believe might be one,
With voices united together we stand,
At peace like the Father and Son.

How good and how pleasant for Brethren to be,
dwelling safely together in sweet harmony.

One body, one Spirit, one Lord and one Faith,
One God and one Father of all,
One Baptism into the Family of God,
One hope, even as we are called.

How good and how pleasant for Brethren to dwell,
Together in unity so David did tell,
Like beautiful Music, a breathtaking view,
Like most precious ointment, like fresh morning dew,
That descended on the Mountain of Zion long before,
God commanded a blessing of life forever more.

How good and how pl;pleasant for Brethren to be
Dwelling safely together in sweet harmony,
Dwelling safely together in sweet harmony…….

Peace and Love Irene

Wether I wrote this before or not, this Song is one of my favorite…

I'LL WALK WITH GOD

I'll walk with God from this day on, His helping hands I'll lean upon,
This is my prayer, my humble plea, may the LORD be ever with me.

There is no death, tho eyes grow dim, there is no fear when I'm near to Him,
I'll lean on Him forever, and He'll forsake me never.

He will not fail me as long as my faith is strong,
Whatever road I may walk along.

I'll walk with God, I'll take His hand,
I'll talk with God, He'll understand,
I'll pray to Him, each day to Him,
And He'll hear the words that I say,
His hand will guide my throne and rod,
And I'll never walk alone while I walk with God…..

Peace and Love Irene

Hi All:
I had the honor of meeting this very spiritual women In Berkeley Springs WV in the U.S.A. She gave me permission to share these poems as I would like. I thought of all of you so , here is one now.
Her name is Margret Perry, author.
A poem written by Margret Peg Perry Date Feb. 1975.

Love is not like a Little Word
Love is not like a little word
We use it from day to day
It ia an act inspired by God
We find from when we pray.

Love is reaching out to all
We meet along the way
It could be to a man in sin
to cause him not to stray

We cannot look beyond the needs
of all we chance to see
oh use me as a vessel Lord
and pass Your love through me

and thank you Lord for loving me
for dying on the tree
to show the world the greatest love
the gift that came from Thee

Hi All :
Enjoy ;

This World is Not My Home

1. This world is not my home ; I'm only passing thru;
My treasures are laid up , some where beyond the blue;
The angels beckon me, from heavens open door
and I can't feel at home in this world any more

Chorus
Oh Lord you know , I have no friend like you
If heaven's not my home , then Lord what will I do
The angels beckon me, from heaven's open door
and I can't feel at home in this world any more.

2. There all expecting me , and that's one thing I know
I fixed it up with Jesus , some forty years ago
I know He'll take me thru , tho I am weak and poor
and I can't feel at home in this world any more

3. I have a loving mother , over in glory land
I don't expect to stop , until I shake her hand
she's waiting for me now , in heaven's open door
and I can't feel at home in this world any more

4. Just over in glory land , we'll live eternally,
the saints on every hand , are shouting victory
their songs of of sweet praise, drift back from heaven's shore
and I can't feel at home in this world any more

Here is a song by Michael W. Smith about Jesus:

You are Holy

You are holy (You are holy)
You are mighty (You are mighty)
You are worthy (You are worthy)
Worthy of praise (Worthy of praise)
And I will follow (I will follow)
I will listen (I will listen)
I will love you (I will love you)
All of my days (All of my days)

(Guys)
I will sing to
And worship
The King who is worthy
I will love Him, adore Him
And I will bow down before Him
I will sing to and worship the King who is worthy
I will love Him, adore him
I will bow down before Him

(Girls)
He is Lord of Lords
He is King of Kings
He is mighty God
Lord of everything

He's Emmanuel
He's the great “I AM”
He's my Prince of Peace
Who is the Lamb

He's the living God
He's my saving grace
He will reign forever
He is ancient of days

He's the Alpha, Omega, Beginning and End
He's my Savior, Messiah, Redeemer, and friend

(Both:)
Your my Prince of Peace and I will live my life for you.

(Girls)
He is Lord of Lords
He is King of Kings
He is mighty God
Lord of everything

He's Emmanuel
He's the great “I AM”
He's my Prince of Peace

He's my saving grace
He will reign forever
He is ancient of days

He's the Alpha, Omega, Beginning and End
He's my Savior, Messiah, Redeemer, and friend

Hi Happyman, I'm glad you liked that performance with Michael W. Smith.

Irene, so sorry you are struggling. You both might like this song. I went to see this artist tonight at a benefit concert for the tornado victims nearby. His name is Josh Turner and he sings clean country songs. My dear boyfriend (husband of almost 30 years) surprised my daughter and I with tickets. What a funny evening this turned out to be. It was an outdoor concert in the cattle pasture of a huge cattle farm. It rained nearly the entire evening. We parked the car and plodded through the muddy pastures, climbed over a stockyard fence, waded through a rushing stream up to our knees and finally got to the stage. The concert was delayed for about 2 1/2 hours, so 6000 people either left or sat restlessly in lawn chairs with their umbrella overhead. When the band started playing it was a very nice concert and the rain had stopped. You ought to have seen us go back through the even muddier pastures to get back to our car. It was a real hoot…I gave up trying to pry my 'flipflop' sandals out of the mud each step and just went barefoot through ankle high, very gooshy mud. Anway, Josh sang this song for those tornado victims and I think that it is a wonderful song.

Jesus is the answer! My daughter had previously thought that he was singing “she's a sassy answer.” The song means a whole lot more to her now, ha!

I hope you will have a peaceful night tonight, Irene.

Enjoy,
Kathi

Hi Kathi! It is 3AM here and all is sleeping. I slept for a few hours. I will wait til later to listen to the Song. I had to laugh what you went through to go to that concert. Sometimes, occasions like that will forever stick in your mind. We had several days or even nights like that when we had our Run-about Boat. Going to Lake Dale Hollow was occasions like that.
Thank you for sharing this with us…..

It will be a glorious experience. We become worthy by surrendering our hearts to Him and acting accordingly. He is the Lord of lords and the Lord of our heart

BE YOU STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE

When the baton was passed from Moses to Joshua years ago,
The Eternal gave instruction in the way that He should go,

He promised to stay right by His side, to help Him understand,
Promised to be His strength and guide, to help hold up His hands…

CHORUS

Be yous strong and of good courage, this is what the Lord commands,
To His people He'll divide, for inheritance the land,

Be you strong and of good courage, keep the law and never turn,
to the left or to the right hand, then you'll prosper and you'll learn,

You'll learn to meditate, Day and Night,
To savor happiness
And strive to do always what's right,
Then you'll see success,

Be you strong and of good courage, hear these words and do attend,
Be not afraid or be dismayed, and endure untill the end…

As we come down through History, unto the end time age,
Once again the baton has been passed, we turn another page,
Examples have been set, for all the world to read,
Make sure you stand on solid ground, we surely must take heed….

CHORUS

Peace and Love to all, Irene
