Touch My Soul
I know that You are always here,Watching over me.On days when struggles come my way,Your strength will protect me.But in my heart I feel so lost,So confused and afraid.I don't know why my hope is gone,With me I know You've stayed.The joy and peace You fill me with,Is hard for me to see.I feel such sadness fill my soul,It's taking over me.There is a raging fight in me,I'm starting to feel beat.The evil one is hard at work,I'm feeling O so weak.I won't let Satan rule my life,I...

Where I Belong
Not long ago my heart was sad,I felt I had no one.Life didn’t make any sense to me,My heart it weighed a ton.Then one day God stirred my heart,He said, “I’m here with you.”He led me to His loving arms,And said, “I love you too.”My time each day with God was great,I didn’t feel all alone.I felt such peace and joy and hope,His love He had made known.Each day I came and talked to Him, He listened to each word.I always felt Him close to me,I know my voice He heard.My life was so...

Don't Give Up
Your faith just isn't feeling strong,The way it used to be.Your heart feels cold; your hope is gone,You've given up on Thee.You don't know why you feel this way,You've so much pain inside.Despair takes over your whole life,You want to run and hide.Just don't give up, no matter what,Get on your knees and pray.The Lord is here; He feels your pain,He'll heal your heart today.Don't give up; keep holding on,He knows that you can't cope.He wants to take your wounded heart,And fill...

Suffering
If we suffer for the sake of Christ, Our Lord rains more love down.He knows that life on earth is hard,He wore a throne filled crown. He suffered death so we could live,He paid a price so high.So that although our life is hard,We'll never have to die.He knows our struggles, everyone,He lived here among men.He knows the trials that we face,The pains we face again.He never promised an easy life,But one thing that is true.We do not have to walk alone,He's always here for you.When we...

Give You My Best
I want to give You the best part of my day,I want to please You by the things that I say.I want to be faithful, I give You my all,And up to You Lord each day I will call.I feel so blessed to call You my King,And all day long heart wants to sing.I want to shout praises for You saved my soul,I want the whole world to know You made me whole.Lord I have problems, some big and some small,But Lord I have faith and I give You them all.I know You’ll take care of them in Your own...

Worship
I’ll worship You all the days of my life,When I feel joy or when I face strife.Not a day will go by when I don’t praise Your name,Each hour I live Your name I’ll exclaim.I’ll worship in the morning and all through the day.Whatever I do and by what I say.I’ll worship in song for You saved my soul,I’ll worship You everywhere that I go.I’ll give you the honour that you so deserve,I’ll bow down to You cause it’s You that I serve.It’s You that I live for, my Father above,And for You my...

I Belong To God
I belong to God,The maker of it all.No matter how I feel,Up to my God I’ll call.I belong to God,The healer of my soul.When I asked Jesus in,My life He made so whole.I belong to God,He’s my Father for always.Such honour I do feel,So I lift His name in praise.I belong to God,He sent His Son for me.Jesus died upon the cross,So my heart can be free.I belong to God,So special I do feel.When I am down and lost,My sad heart He does heal.I belong to God,He is the strength I need.To...

Special Purpose
God has a purpose just for meWhile I’m on this earth.He planned that special purpose,Long before my birth.He has the blueprints of my life,He thought of everything.My looks, my thoughts even my friends,Right down to my offspring.Yes God knows every part of me,Much more than what I know.I was made by Him and for His will,I am here cause He says so.My eyes must focus on the Lord,Then I will understand.The purpose He has planned for me,While I live on this land.I sometimes...

Celebrate Jesus
My life is to celebrate Jesus,My life is to honour the King.My life is to celebrate JesusAnd forever to Him I will sing.My life is to celebrate Jesus,For He is the reason I live.My life is to celebrate Jesus,And praises to Jesus I give.My life is to celebrate Jesus,For He gives me strength to cope.My life is to celebrate Jesus,With Him I have meaning and hope.My life is to celebrate Jesus,For He paid the price for sin.He died on the cross to free me,Now to Heaven He’ll...
