My Captain Is Jesus Christ

I was sailing on a boat
without a port to which to dock
then suddenly there came upon it a storm
and the boat was going to sink
the winds kept blowing harder
each time more and more
my soul experienced great anguish
in midst of the terrible storm

I have done all of the efforts
that any human being can do
I thought that with all my effort
I could find inner peace
I strove and struggled and I toiled
but I couldn’t find victory

Then suddenly I heard a voice
that spoke to my heart and soul
And it said: “Do not fear,
It is I, Jesus Christ, your Savior and Lord”

My captain, Jesus Christ
My captain is Jesus Christ
I know that I’m not going to sink
because my captain is Jesus Christ

The boat of which I speak of
is this world full of suffering
Many of those who are on board this boat
they sail about aimlessly
Let’s all sail, with Jesus Christ
He is our Savior and Lord
He died for you, He died for me
And one day we will see Him face to face

My captain, Jesus Christ
My captain is Jesus Christ
I know that I’m not going to sink
because my captain is Jesus Christ

My captain, Jesus Christ
My captain is Jesus Christ
I know that I’m not going to sink
because my captain is Jesus Christ

I know that I’m not going to sink
because my captain is Jesus Christ

 Spanish: Cristo es me capitan

Far Beyond The Sun

Original Title: Aunque En Esta Vida (Mas Alla Del Sol)
Author: Emiliano Ponce

1. Although here in this life I may have no riches, 
Over there in glory I've a mansion fair. 
I was lost and lonely until Jesus found me 
He showed me compassion and saved me from despair

Chorus
Far beyond the sun! Far beyond the sun! 
Up there is my home, my home, blessed home, 
Far beyond the sun!
Far beyond the sun! Far beyond the sun! 
Up there is my home, my home, blessed home, 
Far beyond the sun!

2. So I travel onward, through the world I wander, 
Oft beset by trials, and temptations sore
But my dear Redeemer, though He tests and proves me, 
Yet will guide me safely to the other shore. 

3. Unto every race of the human lineage
Christ's able to give them salvation full and free
He went to prepare me a glorious mansion
fully built by His hands up over in glory

Have you heard the wondrous message?

1. Have you heard the wondrous message
of the coming of the Lord?
He will call the faithful to the other shore.
If you’ve made the preparation,
when the midnight trumpet sounds
He will take you to His home forevermore.

Refrain:
He’s coming! He’s coming! Behold!
The glorious event long foretold.
Pearly gates will open wide
for the saved and glorified,
Who will find a beauteous Eden now restored.
In triumphant song uniting
with the happy angel throng
They shall dwell forever with the Lord.

2. We will ascend to the heaven with the angels of the light,
and our loved ones, they will join us in the air.
we won't ever be asunder, in that city that's so bright
because we'll abide with Jesus everyday.

3. Then we'll visit worlds unfallen that have never known of sin,
and we'll talk about Christ Jesus and His might.
Who came looking for us sinners just to give us ageless life,
and we'll see the years passing by and by.

4. Then we'll see the ages passing without number year by year,
in eternal youth we'll live forever more.
We'll abide with Jesus ever with no sorrow, with no fear,
and we'll be under the shadow of the Lord.

Who are these in shining armor?

1. Who are these in shining armor
Whence the glory so bright
Ah they come from yonder city
Where Christ is all the light.

Chorus
Ride on, King Jesus, to victory ride on,
In glory and power and majesty sublime
Ride on, King Jesus, to victory, ride on
Till heaven and earth shall own Thee Lord
O conquering One ride on

2. Sing for joy ye remnant people
Your redemption draws near
Soon your trials will be ended
When Jesus shall appear

3. For the long, long night is ended
‘tis the dawning of day
See the conquering host advancing
They meet Him on the way.

4. Hasten on glad day eternal
Sweetest prospect to me
When the King in all His beauty
Forevermore I’ll see.
