The Rochester Family - He Loves Me Like I Was His Only Child

My father has a great big family

And there are many children besides me

If you’re wondering how he divides His time

Just let me say, I never stand in line

He loves me like I was His only child.

I never felt so loved before

I could never ask for more

He loves me like I was His only child.

God really loves me, yes he really loves me

He loves me like I was His only child.

He never favors me above the rest

But I can’t help but feel that I am blessed

He treats me best I often say

But then all my Father’s children feel that way

He loves me like I was His only child.

I never felt so loved before

I could never ask for more

He loves me like I was His only child.

God really loves me, yes he really loves me

He loves me like I was His only child.

God really loves me, yes he really loves me

He loves me like I was His only child.

Youre Still God & Sweet Victory - McKameys

I thought that it would happen to anyone but me
I never dreamed that I would carry this heavy burden on my knees
I never thought that I'd be standing just where I stand today
I've never known this kind of heart break
I've never felt this kind of pain

You're still God when my eyes have cried a million tears
You're still God when my last hope has disappeared
You're still God and I know you'll make a way somehow
You're still God and you're  holding me right now

My heart cant find the answer  for the reason for this trial
and Lord I know your ways are perfect And You've been watching all the while
for to me You've proven faithful time and time again
and I'm learning Lord to trust You
even when I don’t understand

What A Friend We Have In Jesus - Mahalia Jackson

What a friend we have in Jesus, All our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer!
Oh, what peace we often forfeit, Oh, what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer!

Have we trials and temptations? Well there Is trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged— Take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful, Who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every care; Take everything to the Lord in prayer.

TIS SO SWEET TO TRUST IN JESUS

'Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,  Just to take Him at His word;
Just to rest upon His promise; Just to know, Thus saith the Lord.

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him, How I've proved Him o'er and o'er,
Jesus, Jesus, Precious Jesus! O for grace to trust Him more.

O how sweet to trust in Jesus, Just to trust His cleansing blood;
Just in simple faith to plunge me, 'Neath the healing, cleansing flood.

Yes, 'tis sweet to trust in Jesus, Just from sin and self to cease;
Just from Jesus simply taking Life, and rest, and joy, and peace.

I'm so glad I learned to trust Thee, Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me, Wilt be with me to the end.

The Cathedrals - "Sinner Saved by Grace" - 1993

If you could see What I once was
If u could go with me
Back to where I started from
Then, I know you would see
A miracle of Love that put me
in it's sweet embrace
and made me what I am today
just an old sinner Saved by grace

Im just a sinner Saved by grace
when I stood condemned to death
He took my place
Now I live and breathe in freedom
with each breath of life I take
loved and forgivin backed with a living
I'm just a sinner Saved by grace

How could I boast on anything
I've ever seen or done
how could I dare to claim as mine
the victories GOD has won
where would I be
had GOD not brought me
gently to this place
I'm here to say I'm nothing but
a sinner Saved by grace

I'm just a sinner Saved by grace
when I stood condemned to death
He took my place
Now I grow and breathe in freedom
with each breath of life I take
I'm loved and forgivin backed with a living
I'm just a sinner Saved by grace

Now I grow and breathe in freedom
with each breath of life I take
I'm loved and forgivin backed with a living
I'm just a sinner Saved by grace
Saved by grace

Amazing Grace-Rochesters

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me....
I once was lost but now am found,
Was blind, but now, I see.

Through many dangers, toils and snares...
  I have already come.
Tis Grace that brought us safe thus far...
and Grace will lead us home.

When we've been here ten thousand years...
bright shining as the sun.
We've no less days to sing God's praise...
then when we've first begun.

God Still Answers Prayer by Karen Peck & New River

God Still Answers Prayer Karen Peck & New River

The Lord is not too busy That He can’t reach down and mend a broken heart.

And my burden is not too heavy that He can’t hear a plea of faith God still answers prayer.

God still answers prayer.  In His time He’ll work a miracle He will never fail

Satan has lost the battle when to the Lord you humbly bow. God still answers prayer.

If you feel that life is hopeless and the night has no end. There’s hope for your hurting Heart

For He’ll be there with you no matter what you’re going through

God still answers prayer

God still answers prayer.  In His time He’ll work a miracle

He will never fail

Satan has lost the battle when to the Lord you humbly bow. God still answers prayers

Satan has lost the battle when to the Lord you humbly bow. God still answers prayers

"Grace" By The Martins

Grace

I was in prison, locked up in chains sin held me captive
To sorrow and pain, years of frustrations as love passed me by
Until the Master heard my hearts cry

For grace marvelous grace, I needed grace to pardon and make
Me whole grace marvelous grace flows from above with infinite love
Marvelous grace

Nowhere to hide, there was a solace searching for me
Grace everflowing that set my soul free

It was grace marvelous grace I needed grace to pardon and make me
Whole grace marvelous grace flows from above with infinite love
Marvelous grace

A brand new creation He saved me and gave me a reason to sing

Because He Lives I Can Face Tomorrow

God sent His son, they called Him Jesus
He came to love, heal, and forgive.
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.

How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives.
But greater still the calm assurance,
This child can face uncertain days because He lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone.
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living just because He lives.

And then one day I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives.

And then one day I'll cross the river,
I'll fight life's final war with pain.
And then as death gives way to victory,
I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives.

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow.
Because He lives, All fear is gone!
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives!

Because life is worth the living just because He lives!

Ernie Haase & Signature Sound - Oh,What A Savior

What a Savior

He gave his life’s blood for even me

Once I was straying in sin's dark valley,
No hope with in could I see,
But they  searched Thru heaven and found a Savior,
To save a poor lost soul like me

Chorus

Oh what a Savior! Oh Hallelujah
His heart was broken on Calvary,
His hands we nail scared: His side was driven,
He gave his life’s blood for even me

Death's chilly waters (one of these days)  I'll be crossing,
(For I will not fear) His hands will lead me safe o're
(But then, but then) I'll join that chorus in that great city,
And sing up there for ever more (ever more)

Oh what a Savior! Oh Hallelujah (Hallelujah)
His heart was broken on Calvary,
His hands we nail scared: His side was driven,
But He gave his life’s blood for even me

Oh what a Savior!

"Indescribable" by Laura Story

Indescribable – Laura Story

From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings, all exclaiming

Indescribable, uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name You are amazing God

All powerful, untameable Awestruck we fall to our knees
And we humbly proclaim That You are amazing God

Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night, none can fathom
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/l/laura_story/indescribable.html ]
Indescribable, uncontainable
You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name
You are amazing God

All powerful, untameable Awestruck we fall to our knees
And we humbly proclaim That You are amazing God, You are amazing God
You are amazing God

Indescribable, uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name You are amazing God

All powerful, untameable Awestruck we fall to our knees
And we humbly proclaim That You are amazing God

You are indescribable, uncontainable You placed the stars in the sky
And You know them by name You are amazing God

Incomparable, unchangeable You see the depths of my heart
And You love me the same You are amazing God, You are amazing God
You are amazing God

The McKameys -- God Is So Good To Me

Coming from Heaven to dishonor and storm

Christ in a manger so lowly was born

He took on Himself, the sins of the world

That we might be free (that we might be free)

As on the cross Jesus suffered and died

Father forgive them, in sorrow He cried

Then He gave all, yes all, to save you and me

God is so Good to Me, (so good to me) yes He is good to me (so good to me)

God is so Good, so good, He’s so good to me (so good)

God is so Good to Me, (so good to me) yes He is good to me (so good to me)

God is so Good, so good, He’s so good to me (God is so good to me)

God is so Good to Me, (so good to me) yes He is good to me (so good to me)

God is so Good, so good, He’s so good to me (so good)

God is so Good to Me, (so good to me) yes He is good to me (so good to me)

God is so Good, so good, He’s so good to me (God is so good to me)

Now I am signing my praises to God

Joy bells are ringing as onward I plot

No happier nor more satisfied could anyone be (could anyone be)

Now I’m a pilgrim here, just passing through

Going to Heaven the home of the true

God is so Good, so good, He’s so good to me (to me)

Gold City - Ain't God Good

Ain’t God Good

                                    Ain’t God Good, Ain’t God Good

                                    To give us so many blessings.

                                    Undeserving that’s what we are.

                                    We ought to, thank Him, go and praise Him

                                    A little more today, a little more today

                                    A whole lot more tomorrow.

                                    For 40 long years God’s children wandered in the

                                    Wilderness.

                                    Searching for Canaan – that blessed promise land.

                                    Oh, they never got to hungry and they never got to thirsty.

                        For the more that God kept blessing them, the more they

                        would complain.

                                    Ain’t God Good, Ain’t God Good

                                    To give us so many blessings.

                                    Undeserving that’s what we are.

                                    We ought to, thank Him, go and praise Him

                                    A little more today, a little more today

                                    A whole lot more tomorrow.

                                    In the times that we live so many are unthankful.

                                    So many of us fail to see that God has given all.

                                    Never having time for God, we’re always busy working.

                                    To pay for cars, new homes, TV & carpet wall-to-wall.

                                    Ain’t God Good, Ain’t God Good

                                    To give us so many blessings.

                                    Undeserving that’s what we are.

                                    We ought to, thank Him, go and praise Him

                                    A little more today, a little more today

                                    A whole lot more tomorrow.

                                    Ain’t God Good, Ain’t God Good.

The Rochester Family - It is Well with My Soul

Today, I can claim "It is well with My Soul.  Lord, Help me to always claim this.

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou has taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul. 

Refrain:
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come,
Let this blest assurance control,
That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,
And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought!
My sin, not in part but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more,
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;
The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend,
Even so, it is well with my soul.

Refrain:
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Heather Williams - God is still God

GOD IS STILL GOD

Wish I knew what I’m supposed to say to you
What you’re going through
But I don’t know what you’re feeling
Does anyone know what you’re feeling right now

You’re afraid
The future's like an enemy, and you just wish you could see
‘Cause you don’t know where you’re going
Don’t let it keep you from hoping right now

Yeah we’ve all been lost and we’ve all been hurt
Where our hope is spent and our faith don’t work
But nothing lasts forever
The only thing that matters
Is God is still God and He holds it together

So hang on now

He’s been there, walking in the wilderness
When it’s hard to see the end
But He had the strength to do it, so He can help you through it
So hang on now


Yeah we’ve all been lost and we’ve all been hurt
Where our hope is spent and our faith don’t work
But nothing lasts forever
The only thing that matters
Is God is still God and He holds it together


So hang on now
So hang on now

So even when you lie awake
And bend until you almost break
The darkest time is right before the dawn

Yeah we’ve all been lost and we’ve all been hurt
Where our hope is spent and our faith don’t work
But nothing lasts forever
The only thing that matters
Is God is still God and He holds it together
So hang on now
 So hang on now

Thank You Lord, For Your Blessings On Me

Last year in the month of November, I posted everyday what I was thankful for.  I have soooo many things to be thankful for and am blessed beyond measure.  Is my life perfect?  No!  But my God is!  This year during November, I am planning on posting a praise or Thanksgiving song each day.  The kids & I love singing around the house and in the van.  Sometimes when we are singing, the Holy Spirit gets a hold of me & the tears start a  flowin' and an occasional shoutin' happens too.  The kids hand me a tissue and just smile.  I can only imagine what the other drivers on the road are thinking.

Please join me as I take this month to thank my Lord for saving me and to praise His Holy name.

Jeff and Sheri Easter - Thank You, Lord, For Your Blessings

While the world looks upon me as I struggle along
They say I have nothing, but they are so wrong.
In my heart I'm rejoicing, how I wish they could see
Thank you, Lord, for your blessings on me.

There's a roof up above me, I've a good place to sleep.
There's food on my table, and shoes on my feet.
You gave me your love Lord, and a fine family.
Thank you Lord for your blessings on me.

I know I'm not wealthy and these clothes thier not new,
I don't have much money, but Lord I have you.
And that's all that matters tho the world may not see
Thank you Lord for your blessings on me.

There's a roof up above me, I've a good place to sleep.
There's food on my table, and shoes on my feet.
You gave me your love Lord, and a fine family,
Thank you Lord for your blessings on me.
