The time I have ordained for you
But rest assured, and know that
Your time is in my hands

An inheritance in heaven
That will never spoil or perish,
And that fadeth not away (1 Pet 1:5)
You will come, your time will come,
The time I have ordained for you
So rest assured, and know that
Your time is in my hands
Yes, You will come, your time will come,
The time I have ordained for you
So rest assured, believe that
Your time is in my hands
Rest assured, and know that
Your time is in my hands

I know you are my Father, yet I feel i barely know you
You're real, of that I'm certain for I've seen Your works around me.
But You’re vast just like the universe and distant as Icarus,*
I need to know You're here right now and with me in the silence.
I've heard of you, I've read your words,
From early on I prayed to you
I've called your name when things went bad. [went wrong].
And sad to say, I've cursed You, too
But I find comfort in Your Son.
In the things He said and did
How He loved us, gave His all,
What He taught and how He lived
All He could talk about was You
Your great goodness and Your love
He convinced me that it's true
Showed me who you are
Put a face on You
So now I'm trying to follow, and to live as you've instructed
And do so in a world that doesn't seem to want to know You
It doesn't help You can't be seen, and dwell outside our senses
And tend to work behind the scenes in mysterious circumstances
But I'll keep trying to know Your love
Though You are light while I am sand
And I'm so far from all You are
And barely start to understand
But I find comfort in Your Son
In the things He said and did
How He loved us, gave His all
What He taught and how He lived
All He could talk about was You
Your great goodness and your love
He convinced me it's all true
Showed me who you are
and put a face on
So I'll pray to You, and call your name
I'll worship You with all I've got
I'll praise You for all that I confront
Whether I feel you near or not
For I've found comfort in Your Son...
In the things He said and did
How He loved and gave His all
What He taught and how He lived
All I will talk about is You
Your great goodness and your love
For He convinced me it's all true
Showed me who you are
and put a face on You
He embodied who you are
Brought it down to earth --
In His beauty I see You.

She hadn’t slept much these 2 nights
tortured by the things she’d seen
The images of whips and nails,
All burning in her memory
The One she loved the most on earth
Had just been taken from her life/side
And now with dearest friends in tow
She’d come to say goodbye
But then as they approached the place
And saw the stone was rolled away
With tears rolling down her troubled face
She asked a gardener where He lay
He could have answered anything --
Some glorious truth perhaps proclaim --
Instead as they stood face to face
Jesus simply said her name: “Mary!”
Can you hear Him call your name
As He called hers that morn?
He gave His life, then rose again
That we might be reborn.
He conquered death, broke evil’s might
And opened Heaven’s door
To lead us out into the light
Set free forever more.
Are you weeping now somewhere
Troubled by some circumstance?
If Life is more than you can bear
I counsel you, give Him a chance
When you let Him into your life --
Nothing to lose, and all to gain --
You will find that He’ll appear
And gently call your name
Can you hear Him call your name,
As He called hers that morn?
He gave His life, then rose again
That we might be reborn
He conquered death, broke evil’s might
And opened Heaven’s door
To lead us out into the light
Set free forever more.
Can you hear Him call your name,
As He called hers that morn?
He gave His life, then rose again
That we might be reborn
He conquered death, broke evil’s might
And opened Heaven’s door
To lead us out into the light
Set free forever more.

A little child, so small and weak
So similar to you and me
We know His story, how it went
His life amongst the poor
His growing up in troubled lands
Confronting all the worst in man
Yet never ceasing to believe
His Father’s love was more ...
More than able to relieve
the suffering He’d daily see
And as He grew from child to man
He watched and took it in
Then following His father’s voice
He made a good but deadly choice
that led Him on to calvary
to save humanity
Easter is the reason we have Christmas
We all love to see Jesus as a babe
But we can’t forget He came to suffer violence
To give His life, then rise on Easter Day
We love the angels, shepherds, star and wise men
But let’s remember how that came to be
You see, Easter is the reason we have Christmas
Someone was born to die for you and me.
So at Cmas time we celebrate
the One who came to liberate
The day when God became a man
to execute His plan
The plan to save our troubled race
So on a cross He took our place
It all began in Bethlehem
When God became a man
Easter is the reason we have Christmas
We all love to see Jesus as a babe
But we can’t forget He came to suffer violence
To give His life, then rise on Easter Day
We love the angels, shepherds, star and wise men
But let’s remember how that came to be
You see, Easter is the reason we have Christmas
Someone was born to die for you and me.

TIERRA BUENA
Un sembrador salió a sembrar
Pasó muy cerca de mi lugar
Dejó caer una semilla
Que en su interior llevaba vida
Vi otras caer junto al camino
Donde la gente de prisa se iba
Todas pisoteadas fueron
Y las aves se las comieron
Otra parte vi caer
Sobre las rocas les vi crecer
Brotaron, pero se secaron
Porque sin humedad quedaron
Ver la existencia corta
De estas semillas prometedoras
Me hizo pensar en mi semilla,
Y una voz dentro de mi decía:
Estribillo:
Qué tipo de tierra quieres ser?
Dejaras que crezca en ti lo que Mis ojos quieren ver crecer?
Quiero que haya frutos de Mi amor por dondequiera
Tu voluntad será hecho con la Mía en esta tierra
Una otra parte vi caer
Entre espinos, y al crecer
Fueron ahogados sin piedad
Por todas esas plantas de maldad
Todo eso me hizo contemplar
En lo que mi vida iba a lograr
Y si de alguna forma yo podría
Evitar lo que sufrieron las semillas
Estribillo:
Qué tipo de tierra quieres ser?
Dejaras que crezca en ti lo que Mis ojos quieren ver crecer?
Quiero que haya frutos de Mi amor por dondequiera
Tu voluntad será hecho con la Mía en esta tierra
[puente]
Cuando llegue a mi final
Quiero que esta voz me diga:
"Que bien cuidaste de tu semilla--
Entra en la vida”
Otra parte cayó en tierra buena
Creció, y dió una cosecha
Abundante en todo sentido--
Que oye el que tenga oído:
Estribillo:
Qué tipo de tierra quieres ser?
Dejaras que crezca en ti lo que Mis ojos quieren ver crecer?
Quiero que haya frutos de Mi amor por dondequiera
Tu voluntad será hecho con la Mía en esta tierra

You are loved more than you know it, baby
You are loved, more than you feel it maybe
You are here, and there’s a reason for you
So dry those tears
You are known, every thought inside you
You are known, every reason why you
Feel the way you feel today--
You’re not alone.
But you alone must find the road that’s meant for you
And do what you alone will do
With this treasure that’s been given you
You are now, so make the most of what you’re here to do
We believe in you
You are here to fill a space that only you can fill
To make a place among the ones you will let into your heart
and into your life
You’re alive, in every sense you’re meant to live your life
To be true to what you feel is true and know is right,
With head held high
You alone must find the strength to face each day
Rise every morning come what may
Recover hope when you have lost the/your way
You’re all right, you’re going to make it
Going to be all right,
We believe in you
Bridge
But you alone are not enough to stem the tide
Others will join you in the fight
And take their places by your side, one by one
You will find they are the the riches of this life
So choose them slowly and be wise
They’ll make al) the difference in your life
You’ll be fine, you’re gonna make it, gonna be all right
We believe in you
Bridge 2
You alone will have to answer when it’s done
for choices made and races run
So set your mind to what must be done, and then begin
Determine now to find the beauty in each day
(And) In those you meet along the way
You may not pass that way again
And, remember,
You are loved more than you know it, baby
You are loved, more than you feel it maybe
You are here, and there’s a reason for you
So dry those tears
You are known, every thought inside you
You are known, every reason why feel the way you feel today
We believe in you
And you are not alone

Another christmas rolls around--
The sights and sounds invade us
We should have learned to love by now,
But peace on earth evades us
War and destruction all around
and evil walks among us
Yet in the old beloved story
True love, new hope, real peace can still be found
CHORUS:
Unto us a child was born,
Unto us a son was given
For God so loved the world He gave
The One He loved in Heaven
Let’s celebrate Emmanuel!
Let’s celebrate that God is with us!--
That HIs kingdom’s come to earth
& His Spirit lives within us.
We've made a mess of things so far
And dropped the ball He gave us
But when let Him rule our lives
His Spirit makes all the difference
We somehow do the impossible of loving those around us
He paves the way for peace on earth
Where grace, real hope, true love can now be found
CHORUS:
Unto us a child was born,
Unto us a son was given
For God so loved the world He gave
The One He loved in Heaven
Let’s celebrate Emmanuel!
Let’s celebrate that God is with us!--
That HIs kingdom’s come to earth
& His Spirit lives within us.
Bridge:
HE GAVE and gave, and gave,
Now He waits and waits and waits
While we decide, decide, decide
To let Him in our life
CHORUS:
Unto us a child was born,
Unto us a son was given
For God so loved the world He gave
The One He loved in Heaven
Let’s celebrate Emmanuel!
Let’s celebrate that God is with us!--
That HIs kingdom’s come to earth
& His Spirit lives within us.

CHORUS:
Come to the table of Grace
To the hungry He’s calling: “Draw near and partake"
Out from the highways, the byways and lands
Enter into the goodness He’s planned
Come to the table that’s set
There a bountiful feast, with no price to be met
Ye hungry and thirsty come taste
Taste and see how He loves you today
If you hear, if you will - Come
He is here, here for you - Come
He waits for you, calls to you, “Come to Me…”
He’s the Way, He is truth - Come
He’s the Life you need today - Come
He’s the start of all you’ll need - “Come and see!”
[CHORUS]
He is there in your head - Come
He wants to live in your heart - Come
He signals you, calls to you, “Come to Me…”
He wants to talk to you today - Come
He wants to save your life today - Come
He is what you’ll always need - “Come and see!”
[CHORUS x2]

The Power of One

The Power of One
I have seen with my own eyes the power that lies within
A sole individual who determines to begin
To run a race that few attempt, they take that first step forward
And something like a miracle will gradually unfold
Though forces which you can’t control may try to wear you down
If you BELIEVE you can, any battle is half won
So seek your strength from deep within, and friends who gather round you
And look up to the Source of Love for strength you never knew you had
Chorus:
And believe, just believe, and all things will be possible
The voices nearly audible that cheer you to fight on
Just believe, only believe, and the power of faith will find you
Every victory will remind you of all that can be done
Through the power of one.
If you think you can, or think you can’t, either way you’re right
Each battle is waged within the recesses of your mind
Small beginnings, greater ends will have to be your focus
A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step
So lift your eyes above the crowds, & the madness all around
And look to a future where your finished works abound
Don’t judge each day by harvests reaped, but by the seeds you've planted
Be grateful for each tiny step, take nothing gained for granted
Chorus
And believe, only believe, and all things will be possible
the voices nearly audible that cheer you to fight on
Just believe, only believe, and the power of faith will find you
Every victory will remind you of all that can be done
Through the power of one.

VERSE:
You know that no one can take away from you
That thing we call influence, the way you do what you do
No matter the/what situation you encounter, it’s a fact:
You and you alone choose how you’ll react
V2
Nobody can force you to respond/think or act a certain way
So I suggest prudence in the things you choose today
You’ll surely affect each and everyone you meet today
Will they be happy that they met you, or relieved you walked away?
CHORUS
Do what you can, where you are
Use what you have in your hand
Keep shooting for the highest star
But don’t forget your fellow man
Be the change right where you are
start with who’s there facing you
Give what you can and be glad for what simple acts of love can do
V3
Every man has his secret sorrows, & may be having a tough day
And a small word of comfort may help chase some/those blues away
And a small word of comfort could only help, it’s safe to day
You have no control over what others say or do
But how you use your time, your money or your energy is up to you
CHORUS
Do what you can, where you are
Use what you have in your hand
Keep shooting for the highest star
Just don’t forget your fellow man
Be the change right where you are
Start with who’s there facing you
Give what you can and be glad for what simple acts of love can do
Bridge:
Jesus didn’t hand out a lot of compliments while in our world,
But He praised one lowly woman saying:
“She has done/did what she could”

I am not afraid to die,
For I know my Redeemer lives
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will I, so will I
I am not afraid to cross that line
For my Redeemer lives,
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will, I so will I
He came to be one of us
Was born a helpless child
He grew and walked among us
And taught us how to live and die, so
I am not afraid to die,
For I know my Redeemer lives
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will I, so will I
I am not afraid to cross that line
For my Redeemer lives,
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will, I so will I
He promised life eternal
To all who will believe
His body was the kernel
Planted for a world to feed, a world to feed
I am not afraid to die,
For I know my Redeemer lives
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will I, so will I
I am not afraid to cross that line
For my Redeemer lives,
And because my Redeemer lives,
So will, I so will I

We stand upon a threshold, looking through an open door
Nervous for what lies ahead, unsure of what’s in store
But glancing back it’s plain to see that you were always there
That we made it this far by your grace is clear
Though we felt at times we fell behind and you had gone/moved ahead
You’d pick us up with words of love and encourage us instead
So as we embark on this new step we’re trusting as before
that you’ll lead us where you’d have us be once more,
CHORUS:
You have helped us make it this far and You never left our side
You walked us through the darkness out into the glorious light
When we couldn’t see one foot ahead you urged us to go on
You have helped us make it this far
And we’re trusting you, that You’ll surely bring us home
Except you go before us we will surely lose our way
The road is rough, with curves and turns, and changes day by day
We’ve learned to trust that you are with us, and no, never very far
That the safest place to be is where You are
CHORUS:
You have helped us make it this far and You never left our side
You walked us through the darkness out into the glorious light
When we couldn’t see one foot ahead you urged us to go on
You have helped us make it this far
And we’re trusting you, that You’ll surely lead us home
BRIDGE
You have placed within our reach
Everything that we will need
So we’re off to our promised land
Holding to your hand
CHORUS:
You have helped us make it this far and You never left our side
You walked us through the darkness out into the glorious light
When we couldn’t see one foot ahead you urged us to go on
You have helped us make it this far
And we’re trusting you, that You’ll surely bring us home
