Gospel Songs That Inspire And Edify You by salt1: 12:30pm On Aug 12, 2013 |
The purpose of this thread is to share the lyrics of Gospel songs that inspire and edify you. As the world is awash with ungodly and suggestive music, let the children of Zion sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, offering our sacrifices of praise to the great Redeemer and encouraging one another. I will start with mine. I have songs for different occasions: when I'm happy, sad, discouraged,etc. I am a fan of Bill and Gloria Gaither and enjoy Southern Gospel music. Please feel free to add yours Down from His Glory Oh, how I love Him How I adore Him My breath, my sunshine My all in all The great Creator Became my Savior And all God's fullness Dwelleth in Him Down from His Glory Ever living story My God my Savior came And Jesus was His name Born in a manger To His own, a stranger A Man of sorrows, fears and agony Oh, how I love Him How I adore Him My breath, my sunshine My all in all The great Creator Became my Savior And all God's fullness Dwelleth in Him Without reluctance Flesh and blood His substance He took the form of man Revealed the hidden plan Oh, glorious myst'ry Sacrifice of Calv'ry And now I know Thou wert the great "I am" |

May those coming behind us find us faithful We're pilgrims on the journey Of the narrow road And those who've gone before us line the way Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses Let us run the race not only for the prize But as those who've gone before us Let us leave to those behind us The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives CHORUS: Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful May the fire of our devotion light their way May the footprints that we leave Lead them to believe And the lives we live inspire them to obey Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone And our children sift through all we've left behind May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find REPEAT CHORUS Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful 1 Like 1 Share |

He Looked Beyond My Faults Amazing Grace..Will always be my song of praise. For it was grace, that brought me liberty, I do not know, just why He came to love me so. He looked beyond my faults and saw my need. I shall forever lift mine eyes to Calvary, To view the cross, where Jesus died for me How marvelous, His grace that caught my falling soul He Looked beyond my faults and saw my need. (Instrumental) I shall forever lift mine eyes to Calvary, To view the cross, where Jesus died for me How marvelous, His grace that caught my falling soul He Looked beyond my faults and saw my needs, He Looked beyond my faults and saw my needs. |

Thanks for loving me 1. Dear Lord, I’ve asked you for So many things before For strength to climb each mountain in my way I’ve asked for strength and health I’ve even asked for wealth But from now on, this is the way I’ll pray (Chorus) Thanks for Loving Me Thanks for Calvary Thanks for the riven side, the nail-pierced hand The crown of thorns You wore Thanks for Mom and dad And the good times we had But most of all, thanks for loving me 2. When I was just a kid And I knelt by my bed My thanks to Thee each night I always said To be a child again And pray as I prayed then Lord grant this one request to me, Amen Repeat Chorus Tag: But most of all, thanks for loving me |

Jesus have mercy on me I'm not even worthy of all of the blessings I've had while living below, When I think of Heaven and all of its splendor I know I'm not worthy to go, Deeply I try to do what you wanted and be what you asked me to be, But when you make up your jewels and call them your own, Jesus have mercy on me. Jesus have mercy on one of your children whose failed and been far from the best, Jesus have mercy on one whose unworthy and already overly blessed, I've heard of the glory that awaits all the saints but that's too high to hope to be, But when you look in the book and you're calling the roll, Jesus have mercy on me. Lord I'm down here where you used to be and I've failed all the tests that you passed, And so I won't be first in the race but run it was all that you asked, When I stand before you on that final day I'm sure that you'll plainly see It's not justice I'm needing, it's mercy O, Lord Jesus have mercy on me. Jesus have mercy on one of your children whose failed and far from the best, Jesus have mercy on one whose unworthy and already overly blessed, I've heard of the glory that awaits all the saints but that's too high to hope to be, But when you look in the book and you're calling the roll, Jesus have mercy on me. |

Lynda Randle - God On The Mountain Lyrics Life is easy, when you're up on the mountain And you've got peace of mind, like you've never known. But things change, when you're down in the valley. Don't lose faith, for you're never alone. For the God on the mountain, is still God in the valley. When things go wrong, He'll make it right. And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times. The God of the day is still God in the night. We talk of faith way up on the mountain. Talk comes so easy when life's at its best. Now down in the valleys, of trials and temptations That's where your faith, is really put to the test. For the God on the mountain is still God in the valley. When things go wrong, He'll make it right. And the God of the good times is still God in the bad times. The God of the day, is still God in the night. The God of the day, is still God in the night. |

Through it All Verse 1 I've had many tears and sorrows, I've had questions for tomorrow, there's been times I didn't know right from wrong. But in every situation, God gave me blessed consolation, that my trials come to only make me strong. Chorus Through it all, through it all, I've learned to trust in Jesus, I've learned to trust in God. Through it all, through it all, I've learned to depend upon His Word. Verse 2 I've been to lots of places, I've seen a lot of faces, there's been times I felt so all alone. But in my lonely hours, yes, those precious lonely hours, Jesus lets me know that I was His own Chorus Verse 3 I thank God for the mountains, and I thank Him for the valleys, I thank Him for the storms He brought me through. For if I'd never had a problem, I wouldn't know God could solve them, I'd never know what faith in God could do 1 Like 1 Share |

What a Friend we have in Jesus: 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? Is there 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 weakness; Take it to the Lord in prayer. Are we weak and heavy-laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge— Take it to the Lord in prayer. Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In His arms He’ll take and shield thee, Thou wilt find a solace there. Blessed Savior, Thou hast promised Thou wilt all our burdens bear; May we ever, Lord, be bringing All to Thee in earnest prayer. Soon in glory bright, unclouded, There will be no need for prayer— Rapture, praise, and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there. 1 Like |

Thy word is a lamp Thy Word is a lamp to my feet, A light to my path alway, To guide and to save me from sin, And show me the heav’nly way. Refrain Thy Word have I hid in my heart, That I might not sin against Thee; That I might not sin, that I might not sin, Thy Word have I hid in my heart. Forever, O Lord, is Thy Word Established and fixed on high; Thy faithfulness unto all men Abideth forever nigh. Refrain At morning, at noon, and at night I ever will give Thee praise; For Thou art my portion, O Lord, And shall be through all my days! Refrain Thro’ Him whom Thy Word hath foretold, The Savior and Morning Star, Salvation and peace have been brought To those who have strayed afar.l |
