Praise You in This Storm By Casting Crowns

I was sure by now,God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.

Chorus:
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away

Chorus

I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth

(1828–1888) HORATIO G. SPAFFORD, a forty-three-year-old Chicago businessman, suffered financial disaster in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. He and his wife were still grieving over the death of their son shortly before the fire, and he realized they needed to get away for a vacation. Knowing that their friend Dwight L. Moody was going to be preaching in evangelistic campaigns in England that fall, Spafford decided to take the entire family to England. His wife and four daughters went ahead on the SS Ville du Havre, and he planned to follow in a few days. But on the Atlantic Ocean the ship was struck by an iron sailing vessel and sank within twelve minutes. Two hundred and twenty-six lives were lost—including the Spaffords’ four daughters. When the survivors were brought to shore at Cardiff, Wales, Mrs. Spafford cabled her husband, “Saved alone.” Spafford booked passage on the next ship. As they were crossing the Atlantic, the captain pointed out the place where he thought the Ville du Havre had gone down. That night, Spafford penned the words “When sorrows like sea billows roll . . . it is well, it is well with my soul.”

IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL

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

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

Though Satan should buffet, tho’ 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—O, 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 the 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 sou

Mercy Me---------------> I Can Only Imagine

I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By your side

I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When your face
Is before me
I can only imagine

[Chorus:]
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine

[Chorus]

I can only imagine [x2]

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you

Avalon------------> Oxygen

I take each breath as if it is my first
I hold it there, so deep inside me
'Til I'm about to burst
I speak each word as if it is Your name
I move my lips , I see the whisper
Stir the gentle flame

Your heart beats and so does mine
Your love moves
And I know I'm alive

You are my oxygen
I breathe You in
I breathe You out
You are my oxygen
You are my love
You are what life's about

I take each breath as if it is my last
You never know what came so slowly
Could leave us, oh, so fast
I take each step as if it is to You
I hear Your voice
I feel Your presence
In everything I do

My soul sleeps, Your love revives
Our hearts meet
And I know I'm alive

The air is think, the flower sweet
The shadow comes down
Tonight the moon is at my feet
And I breathe You in
I breathe You in to me

I'm nobody without You
If You were not here what would I do

CHRISTIANA ROSETTI
IN THE BLEAK MIDWINTER
In the bleak midwinter,
Frosty wind made moan,
Earth stood hard as iron,
Water like a stone;
Snow had fallen, snow on snow,
Snow on snow,
In the bleak midwinter, Long ago.

Our God, heaven cannot hold Him,
Nor earth sustain;
Heaven and earth shall flee away
When He comes to reign;
In the bleak midwinter
A stable place sufficed
The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ.

Angels and archangels
May have gathered there,
Cherubim and seraphim Thronged the air;
But His mother only,
In her maiden bliss,
Worshiped the beloved With a kiss.

What can I give Him,
Poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd,
I would bring a lamb;
If I were a wise man,
I would do my part;
Yet what I can I give Him: Give my heart

Hey y'all, I'm feeling John P Kee right now so I'll just bust some of his songs here.

Chorus:
Stand for Holiness
Stand for Righteousness
And be counted among them
That shall reign with Him
You stand
When friends are gone
Stand when you're all alone
And believe He shall receive His own

I decided to take a stand
Not believing I'd lose
Some of my friends
I would rather; I'd rather live right
Than in hell lift up my eyes.
Stand Stand You Stand

Stand for Holiness
Stand for Righteousness
And be counted among them
That shall reign with Him
You stand
When friends are gone
Stand when you're all alone
And believe He shall receive His own

So many things we don’t know,
say it’s hard to let go,
we must put all our trust in You.

what He wants to
whenever He wants to,
He is God.

Chorus

Oh how David did agree in the Psalm 23,
called Him Shepherd over his life.

whenever He wants to,
He is God.

et omnes, ad quos pervenit aqua ista,
salvi facti sunt, et dicent, alleluia, alleluia.

Confitemini Domino quoniam bonus: Quoniam in saeculum misericordia eius.

Sicut erat in principio, et nunc, et semper, et in saecula sæculorum. Amen.

Vidi Aquam (in English):

I saw water coming forth from the temple
on the right side, alleluia:
and all those to whom this water came
were saved, and shall say, alleluia, alleluia.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost: As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

Glory and honour - Acappella

When I'm there with You in heaven
What a wondrous joy will be
Gathered with the angel chorus
Standing by the glassy sea
Such a thought is hard to fathom
In the presence of my King
And with countless ones forgiven
Gathered round the throne to sing

Glory and honor, worthy is the Lamb
Glory and honor, worthy is the Lamb

Mortal words cannot express it
All the ways you reign supreme
Even death can’t hold the vastness
Nor approach this awesome theme
You are God and to Your glory
We will worship and abide
In Your presence there forever
We’ll be happy to reside

Glory and honor, worthy is the Lamb
Glory and honor, worthy is the Lamb

Worthy is the lamb
Worthy is the lamb

how i wish we could get a media player for these songs .i'd really like to learn a new songs

Matt Redman in Nothing But The Blood

Your blood speaks a better word
Than all the empty claims I've heard upon this earth
Speaks righteousness for me
And stands in my defense
Jesus it's Your blood (x2)

[Chorus]
What can wash away our sins?
What can make us whole again?
Nothing but the blood
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can wash us pure as snow?
Welcomed as the friends of God
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

Your cross testifies in grace
Tells of the Father's heart to make a way for us
Now boldly we approach
Not by earthly confidence
It's only by Your blood

[Chorus]

Praise You for the blood
Yes, we praise You for the blood

(We’ve been ransomed, we’ve been held, we’ve been restored & forgiven. Thank you LORD)

So, we will praise you for the blood
Praise you for the blood

What can cleanse the world from sin
Nothing but Your blood
Nothing but Your blood King Jesus

God bless y'all!

Nice One

God bless the person that sent this thread.
when i'm down and feel like God is far, yet i want to reach out and touch him. i sing
Here i am Lord,
my life is in your hand
take and use me
i am your instrument
it is your love that keeps me thru the day
and your grace wont let me go astray
i dont know where i'd be without you leading me

i'm your child Lord,
i humble myself to thee
for without you
there's nothing i can do
now i know, when troubles come my way
it is strength that keeps me come what may
everyday
you keep me in perfect peace,
when my mind is stayed on thee.
CH
i thank you for all that iam
for giving me courage to stand, and when i am weak
you hold my hand
you tell me that i realy can
i praise you for all that you are
i wont have made it this far
so iwant to take time to say
that i realy love YOU

Thank You! Song by the Katinas

Just a little while longer I want to pray
Can't get You off my mind so I came to say
Thank You Lord, just for loving me, alright
Many times I do forget
Every need that You have met
Oh thank You Lord, I know You're showing me
You are there when I am down and out
You're holding me, Your love is so amazing
Oh it changed me

CHORUS
Here I am with all I have
Raise my hands to worship You
I want to say thank you, oh thank you
For everything, for who You are
You cover me, You touch my heart
I want to say thank you

I could have died in my sin but You saved me
Didn't have any hope at all
You gave me peace divine, strength to carry on
I should have been the one to pay
But instead You took my place
Amazing grace, it's more than just a song
Even though I don't deserve Your love for me
You look beyond my fault and You showed me mercy

CHORUS

I want to say thank you for the sun
Lord we thank you for the rain
Thank you for the love You gave

CHORUS


(I love this song so much. . . . . just can't help listening to it over and over again from the Bill Gather's Series Pack.)

I love the Katinas!

but im really with Deitrick Haddon

Seven days.

Verse 1:
Gotta tell ya I'm so in a daze,
floating with the clouds,
the highest clouds, feels like heaven

When I think of You, I stand amazed,
so mesmerized, words can't describe,
but I'll try 'cause,

Chorus:
You're always on my mind
seven days of the week;
even when I'm asleep,
I'm constantly dreaming of You.

It happens every time I fall to my knees,
Your sweet name makes me weak,
I'm constantly dreaming of You.

Verse 2:
When I feel Your love, I'm so alive,
get butterflies, feels good inside,
I'm on cloud nine,

No one else can do the things You do,
Amazing You,
I want to tell the whole world.

Bridge 1:
Like a flower fully bloom from a sunshine,
so beautiful,
only You can make me feel
the way I'm feeling right now

Like an autumn leaf,
I'm falling so in love;
how do You make me feel this way?

Chorus

Bridge 2:
You give me peace of mind,
without You, I'll be lost.
And thank You for Your sweet love,
it feels so good,
please don't ever leave me

Bridge 1


Chorus

not really a fan of the Katinas.
I got easily bored with their "thank you" song.

I just discovered this guy,

Shawn Mcdonald

Beautiful

As I look into the stars
Pondering how far away they are
How You hold them in Your hands
And still You know this man
You know my inner most being, oh
Even better than I know, than I know myself
What a beautiful God
What a beautiful God
And what am I, that I might be called Your child

What am I, what am I
That You might know me, my King
What am I, what am I, what am I

As I look off into the distance
Watching the sun roll on by
Beautiful colors all around me, oh
Painted all over the sky
The same hands that created all of this
They created you and I
What a beautiful God
What a beautiful God

And what am I, that I might be called Your child
What am I, what am I
That You might know me, my King
What am I, what am I
That You might die, that I might live
What am I, what am I, what am I, what am I

What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I
What am I


the song is truely beautiful!!!

Heres another, Have you ever

Have you ever wanted to be someone else
Have you ever wanted just to be someone
Have you ever wanted to reach your dreams
Have you ever wanted life to be more than it seems

I have tasted of a love so wide
That it stops all my time
I have tasted of a love so deep
That it blows my mind

Have you ever wanted to reach up and touch the sky
Have you ever wanted to pack it up and say good-bye
Have you ever wanted someone to care
Have you ever wanted someone to be there
He is sweet, He is sweet
What your looking for
Is my sweet, sweet Jesus
What You’re looking for
Is my sweet Lord

So beautiful!

A prayer of David
