"Cherish"

"Cherish"


Long before I was ever formed in my mother's womb
You knew and loved me
Then You came and You rescued me showed me the truth
Of what my life could be

Now when I try to explain all the joy all the love I'm feeling'
Feeling in my heart
I start thinking about who You are

Words like cherish come to mind
Every time that I'm reminded how You set me free
And just how much You love me
Words like mercy and grace
Bring a smile to my face
I know that there is nothing that could ever keep us apart
Because I know I hold
A special place in Your heart

There were days I was so amazed that I made it thru
But You were right there beside me
And there were nights when I closed my eyes and I called out to You
And Lord You helped me to believe

And when I try to explain all the joy all the love I'm feeling
Feeling in my heart
I start thinking about who You are

I'll spend my life
I'll keep telling the story
To everyone who would believe
How God would come down
From all of His glory
Out of love for someone like me

"Choose To Love"

"Choose To Love"


Here on the battle line
You're on your side, I'm on mine
We've built a wall so high, one brick at a time
Was it pride or was it fear?
The reason still unclear
But here we are, a world apart
What if we stood with hearts wide open
Ready to start again
What if we let God's grace take over
Learn to forgive and forget
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
A little time, a little faith
A little mercy for mistakes
Maybe love is all it takes to heal these scars
When we lay our weapons down
All the walls fall to the ground
We were worlds apart, and now here we are
What if we stood with hearts wide open
Ready to start again
What if we let God's grace take over
Learn to forgive and forget
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
Nothing, nothing
Nothing, nothing
Can stop us now
Can stop us now
[x2]
What if we stood with hearts wide open
Ready to start again
What if we let God's grace take over
And learn to forgive and forget
What if we stood with hearts wide open
Ready to start again
What if we let God's grace take over
Learn to forgive and forget
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
What if we choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love
We choose to love

"Christmas Carol"

"Christmas Carol"


I first met her in December,
On a snowy winter's night.
And it didn't take me long to see
That something wasn't right.

They called her Christmas Carol,
Said her mind was nearly gone,
But she could still light up the room
When she sang a Christmas song.

Seems no one knows the story
To explain her Christmas cheer.
Why, she keeps the decorations up
All through the year.

And though she long ago
Forgot the names of family and friends,
When it comes to singing Christmas songs,
She's like a child again.

[CHORUS:]
Sing, oh sing, Christmas Carol,
Sing with all of your might!
Sing Joy to the World,
Sing O Holy Night!
You're closer now to Jesus
Than you've ever been;
Sing, oh sing, Christmas Carol,
Sing your songs to Him.

I'd told my son about her,
So I thought I'd take him by.
And he was so amazed at all
The tinsel and the lights.

She laughed and told her stories
Of her Christmas memories,
But nothing told it better than
When she began to sing.

[CHORUS]

Last time that I saw her,
She didn't recognize me.
Her hair was thin and she was frail,
And she couldn't even speak.

But I could sit down next to her,
Sing her favorite Christmas songs,
And somehow, God only knows how,
She could still sing right along!

[CHORUS 2X]

"Christmas Time Is Here / Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"

"Christmas Time Is Here / Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas"


Christmas time is here
Happiness and cheer
Fun for all that children call
Their favorite time of the year
Snowflakes in the air
Carols everywhere
Oh, that we could always see
Such spirit through the year
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Let your heart be light
From now on,
Our troubles will be out of sight
Have yourself a merry little Christmas,
Make the Yule-tide gay,
From now on,
Our troubles will be miles away.
Here we are as in olden days,
Happy golden days of yore.
Faithful friends who are dear to us
Gather near to us once more.
Through the years
We all will be together,
If the Lord allows
Hang a shining star upon the highest bough.
And have yourself a merry little Christmas now.

"Defining Moment"

"Defining Moment"


There comes a time in every heart
A time of real decision
When we reach the point of choosing
How we will live our lives
All our hopes, all our dreams
Will rise up from that moment
The moment we surrender
And choose to fallow Christ
He's been waiting all our lives to hear us say
"I am Yours, Lord, take my hand and lead the way"
When you believe He's all you need
That will be your defining moment
As you live your life walking in His light
Trusting Him completely
That will be, that will be your defining moment
All I have, all I am is resting in His promise
The promise that He'll make me everything that I should be
I will live, I will die, for the cause He set before me
To take this love in side my heart for all the world to see
Oh, all of heaven celebrates when they hear someone say
"I am Yours, Lord, take my hand and lead the way"
When you believe He's all you need
That will be your defining moment
As you live your life walking in His light
Trusting Him completely
That will be, that will be your defining moment, yeah
His amazing grace is such a mystery, yeah
How in an instant it can make your life complete
When you believe He's all you need
That will be your defining moment
As you live your life walking in His light
Trusting Him completely
When you believe He's all you need
That will be your defining moment
As you live your life walking in His light
Trusting Him completely
That will be, that will be your defining moment, oh, oh
Your defining moment, oh
Your defining moment

"Don't It Make You Wanna Go Home"

"Don't It Make You Wanna Go Home"


The morning paper is reading like a scroll
Like the headlines from 2000 years ago
Everywhere I look I see the signs
My hearts telling me its almost time

Don't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
and all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya...Don't it make you wanna go home

I cant wait to sit at Jesus feet
To hear him say welcome home to me
I can almost feel his warm embrace
And His nail scarred hands as they wipe my tears away!

Don't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
and all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya...Don't it make you wanna go home

Far away from this world of pain
God's prepared a perfect place
And I can't stop thinking about it
I'm so homesick for it
Don't it make you want...don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and fall in Jesus' arms
and all the cares of this world will be gone
Don't it make ya...Don't it make you wanna go home

Don't it make you want to go home
Run through those gates and straight to heavens throne
and fall in Jesus' arms
Don't it make ya...Don't it make you wanna go home

yea, yes I wanna go home
yea, yes I wanna go home
yea, yes I wanna go home

"Emmaus Love"

"Emmaus Love"


Their hearts burned within them as they walked
And as they talked about
All the things they had seen
So many questions on their mind
But their eyes were blind
To what His death would mean

Who is this Man who walks with them
And explains the mysteries
Could it be that He's the risen One
Come to set them free

My Emmaus Love everyday He walks with me
Emmaus love everyday He talks with me
Emmaus love He's always there for me
My Emmaus love

He's the light that helps me find my way
Every step I take
He knows my every need
I hear His voice speaking to my heart
The very deepest part
Saying follow where I lead

Who is this Man who walks with me
And explains the mysteries
I know that He's the risen One
Come to set me free

So many roads and choices to make
So many answers to find
I can't imagine living one day
With out You in my life

"Every Child (Deserves A Home)"

"Every Child (Deserves A Home)"


To be remembered on your birthday
Feel a father’s kiss goodnight
To have a mother wrap her arms around you
And say it’s gonna be alright

These are the things we take for granted
That every child should know and love
It’s simply heaven’s way of telling them
They are precious in this world
Precious in this world

Every child deserves a home
Every child deserves to hear the words, “You are not alone.”
Every life on earth is sacred
Every heart is heaven’s own
Every child deserves a home
Deserves a home

They are out there by the millions
Hurting children without hope
Little boys and girls who need a family
That they can call their own

Now it’s up to us to help them
We can’t just close our eyes
Jesus loves the little children
And His arms are open wide
They are open wide

Every child deserves a home
Every child deserves to hear the words, “You are not alone.”
Every life on earth is sacred
Every heart is heaven’s own
Every child deserves a home

There’s something in their faces that tells us their story
There’s something in their cry that keeps calling out, “Don’t forget about me.”
Red and yellow, black and white
They are precious in His sight
Jesus died for all the children of the world

Every child deserves a home
Every child deserves to hear the words, “You are not alone.”
Every life on earth is sacred
