A Beautiful Symphony

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #)

A musician needs all the keys

To play a symphony;

If he only used the white ones,

What beauty would there be?

The black keys make the music

Melodic to the ear;

If the pianist never used them,

What a different song we'd hear.

And just like that piano,

So it is with life;

It takes both light and dark to make

The music flow just right.

God uses trials and sorrows

Like the pianist uses keys;

He combines the light and dark to make

Life's music sound so sweet.

The song of life sounds better

When He uses all the keys;

For then He can turn a simple tune

Into a beautiful symphony.

(Orchestra Solo)

Yes, the song of life sounds better

When He uses all the keys;

For then He can turn a simple tune

Into a beautiful symphony,

Symphony.

A Garden For My King

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted)

(Verse 1)

I have a secret garden

A place of joy and rest

With living springs and fountains

And fragrant fruitfulness.

My garden is reserved for

My sweet beloved King.

No other one may enter

For His is everything.

(Chorus)

Oh, come sweet Jesus

And dwell within Your garden.

Delight Yourself in what You have created.

Come sweet Jesus

Let nothing come between us.

My heart is Yours and Yours alone,

A garden for my King.

(Verse 2)

Come winds of fresh revival,

Renew and cleanse my heart.

Come blow upon this garden,

It fragrance spread abroad.

Let sweet refreshing rains fall,

The sun to shine on me.

Your love is what I long for,

Come my beloved King.

(Repeat Chorus Two Times)

(Ending)

My heart is Yours and Yours alone,

A garden for my King.

My heart is Yours and Yours alone,

A garden for my King.
A Gift For All

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #2443296)

See the people as they rush all around;

Every store in the town

selling toys to go under the tree.

Every corner has a red-suited man

with a bell in his hand,

And the sights are something to see...

But beneath all the noise,

they can find the true meaning of Christmas:

Jesus came to the earth, a gift from heaven above.

Far beyond all the toys,

they can find the true meaning of Christmas:

Jesus came to the earth, with forgiveness and love.

As a gift for all!

See the families as they all gather near,

Full of holiday cheer,

as the lights flash bright red and green.

Turkey, dressing, and some fresh apple pie

put a gleam in your eye,

It's more fun than you've ever seen...

But beneath all the noise,

we can find the true meaning of Christmas:

Jesus came to the earth, a gift from heaven above.

Far beyond all the toys,

we can find the true meaning of Christmas:

Jesus came to the earth, with forgiveness and love.

As a gift for all!

Come, let me tell you of the One

From heaven above

Came as a humble child to Bethlehem;

Thanks be unto Him!

Tell of the One

From heaven above

Came to show Truth and Love in every way,

Turn our darkness into Day;

That's what Christmas truly means to me!

A New Alliance

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #2603184)

The curtain of the temple was torn in two,

from top to bottom, it could not resist.

Torn by an invisible hand,

as God gave access to the glory of the heavens.

The curtain of the temple was torn in two,

from top to bottom, it could not resist.

Jesus cried out in a loud voice,

He gave up his spirit.

In the ninth hour of Passover

death was overcome on the cross;

Christ, The Lamb, gave himself for us.

He brought us salvation,

a new alliance

between us and the Father.

He brought us salvation,

a new alliance

between us and the Father.

As I Gaze At The Stars

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #2528317)

(Verse 1)

How do I know, is what they ask of me;

How can I be sure of a God I cannot see?

Then I look up at the stars, the wonders He has made,

And I cry out for joy at the beauty He's displayed.

(Chorus)

And He loves me.

The Creator of all really loves me

So simple and small.

As I gaze at the stars in the evening sky,

I'm amazed at all I see.

And to think that the One who made the stars above

Gave His only Son for me!

(Verse 2)

When I look into space, the wonder in the skies,

I see beauty and truth and a love that never dies.

And when I look in a drop of water very small

There are worlds within worlds.

His care is with them all.

(Repeat Chorus)
As I Rise To Walk With Him

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #pending)

(Verse 1)

Except a seed be returned to the earth,

There to die to itself,

And yet to find its rebirth,

So I now testify

I am born from above,

Trusting in the Savior's love!

(Chorus)

As I die (as I die) to my sin (to my sin)

I am raised unto life everlasting with Him.

Praise the Lord for His love

Shining down from above

As I rise to walk with Him.

(Verse 2)

No more a slave to the sin that I knew,

For the Lord's cleansing power

Now has made all things new.

Washed away is the old

By the blood of the Lamb;

By His grace alone I stand!

(Repeat Chorus)
As The River Runs

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #2443416)

As a river runs to meet the sea, I run to You.

Lord, your grace is all I ever need; Your love is true.

Your abundant mercy flows to me; I know You care,

For as the river runs to meet the sea,

I run and find You there.

Glory to Your Name;

With joy my soul proclaims

That You are all-sufficient, Lord;

Your mercy's still the same.

Glory all to You;

Praise for all You do.

By grace alone, I live each day:

My soul is born anew!

As a forest longs for gentle rain, I long for You.

For Your gentle shower of love and grace

makes all things new.

Your abundant mercy flows to me; I know You care,

For as the forest waits the coming rain,

I wait and find You there.

Glory to Your Name;

With joy my soul proclaims

That You are all-sufficient, Lord;

Your mercy falls like rain.

Glory all to You;

Praise for all You do.

By grace alone, I live each day:

My soul is born anew!

And forever, Lord, I see

That in You my soul is free:

And to You Lord, may I run to find

My every need,

As a river runs to meet the sea!

Our home with Jesus through all eternity

At home with Jesus is where I'm going to be

Up in the mansions gold and bright

He'll make everything so right

When I lay me down to sleep

Please come and hear about his love

About the home we'll share above

Our home with Jesus through all eternity

Because Your Love Is Better Than Life

(Non-Profit Duplication Permitted - CCLI #2444563)

(Psalm 63:1-4)

O God, you are my God,

Earnestly I seek you;

My soul thirsts for you,

My body longs for you.

In a dry and weary land

Where there is no water.

I have seen you in the sanctuary.

And beheld your power

And your glory.

Because your love is better than life,

My lips will glorify you.

I will praise you

As long as I live,

and in your name I lift up my hands.

In your name I lift up my hands.

Behold a Miracle
