The Best Day You've Ever Had

I can still recall when I was just a boy
I used to think that the best things were candy, gifts, and toys
But when I heard that Jesus was given just for me
That's when life became the best its ever been for me

This could be the best day you've ever had
Take the gift of Jesus and you will be glad
He'll give you His good life and take away the bad
This could be the best day you've ever had

A long, long time ago, when God gave His dear Son
Jesus sent from God the Father was the chosen One
Giving life to all of us, if in Him we believe
Jesus is the greatest gift you ever could receive

This could be the best day you've ever had
Take the gift of Jesus and you will be glad
He'll give you His good life and take away the bad
This could be the best day you've ever had

The things we get on earth we might have for today
But we can't keep a single thing when we go away
Take the gift of Jesus, just open your heart's door
The life He gives to you will last forevermore

This could be the best day you've ever had
Take the gift of Jesus and you will be glad
He'll give you His good life and take away the bad
This could be the best day you've ever had

This could be the best day you've ever had

Thankful

Performed by the Louvin Brothers

Thankful for the sunshine thankful for the rain
Thankful for the snowflakes or the flowers in spring
Thankful Thou will answer when in trouble I pray
Thankful dear Lord everyday

I know I'm not worthy but thankful am I
Do know I'm Thy servant I won't pass me by

Thankful for the heartache thankful for the pain
Thankful for a faith, lest my prayers be in vain
Thankful for the teardrops when in trouble I weep
Thankful for the smile when I sleep

I know I'm not worthy but thankful am I
Do know I'm Thy servant I won't pass me by

Thankful for the heartache thankful for the pain...

Christ is Captain of My Boat

Original title: "Jesus es mi Capitan" by Jose Gomez

[Verse 1]
I was on-board a sailboat
headed to who even knows where
then suddenly a storm came
the boat was going to sink
The wind became more intense
every time raging more and more
Then my soul began to cry
in middle of that great storm

[Verse 2]
I have done all of the efforts
that can be done in human power
I thought with all my efforts
that I'd find inner peace
I struggled fought and I toiled
but then I gave up in defeat

And then suddenly I heard a voice
And it gave me peace within
And it said: “Do not fear,
This is Jesus the Savior of your soul

[Chorus]
Christ is captain of my boat
Oh Christ is the captain of my boat
Oh I know that I will stay afloat
because Christ is captain of my boat

[Verse 3]
The boat of which I speak of
is this world of suffering
Many onboard this boat, 
they sail around aimlessly
So let's march on with the Lord
He's the Savior of our souls
He died for you, He died for me
And one day we will see Him face to face

[Chorus]
Christ is captain of my boat
Oh Christ is the captain of my boat
Oh I know that I will stay afloat
because Christ is captain of my boat
 
[Chorus]
Christ is captain of my boat
Oh Christ is the captain of my boat
Oh I know that I will stay afloat
because Christ is captain of my boat
 
[Outro]
Oh I know that I'm going to stay afloat
because Christ is captain of my boat


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.

There Is A River

There is a river
And it flows from deep within
There is a fountain
That frees the soul from sin
Come to this water
There is a vast supply
There is a river
That never shall run dry

There was a thirsty woman
She was drawing from the well
See, her life was ruined and wasted
And her soul was bound for hell
Oh, but then she met the Master
And He told her of her sin
And He said, "If you drink this water
You'll never thirst again"

There is a river
And it flows from deep within
There is a fountain
That frees the soul from sin
Come to this water
There is a vast supply
There is a river
That never shall run dry

Lose all your guilty stains
Lose all your guilty stains

Oh, come to this water
There is a vast supply
There is a river
That never shall run dry
There is a river
That never shall run dry

Never Shall Run Dry

There's a fountain flowing in me
Coming from a vast supply
Springing forth with life eternal
And it never shall run dry

Precious fountain of living water
Floods my soul with brand new life
Streams refreshing, like no other
And it never shall run dry

It began with Calvary's mountain
Where the Lamb was crucified
And the stream just keeps on flowing
And it shall never run dry

Precious fountain of living water
Floods my soul with brand new life
Streams refreshing, like no other
And it never shall run dry

Precious fountain of living water
Floods my soul with brand new life
Streams refreshing, like no other
And it never shall run dry
And it never shall run dry

Lead me to that Fountain

This barren land of sin will never quench my thirst for living
Death will one day claim my soul
I've been told that Jesus has a fount of changing water
Living can be ever more

Chorus:
O Brother lead me to that fountain,
Blessed fountain from above
I need that wondrous living water
Shared by the master's love.

Each shackled soul and scattered life
Needs hope for joyous living
Something only Christ can share
He's the source to touch the soul and give it life forever
What a time He's planned up there.

Chorus
In heaven's land I'm told the waters flow goes on forever
Coming from a mighty throne
Crystal clear to quench the thirst of all that Holy Family
New life will go on and on.

He Knows My Name

He counts the stars one and all,
Knows how much sand is on the shore
Sees every sparrow that falls
He made the mountains and the seas
He's in control of everything
Of all creatures great and small.

And He knows my name
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cried
He knows my name
When I'm overwhelmed by the pain
Can't see the light of day
I know I'll be just fine
'Cause He knows my name

I don't know what tomorrow will bring
I can't tell you what's in store
I don't know a lot of things
I don't have the all answers
To the questions of life
But I know in whom I have believed

And He knows my name
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cried
He knows my name
When I'm overwhelmed by the pain
Can't see the light of day
I know I'll be just fine
'Cause He knows my name

He knew who I was
When he carried my cross
He knew that I would fail Him
But he took the loss

And He knows my name
Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cried
He knows my name
When I'm overwhelmed by the pain
Can't see the light of day
I know I'll be just fine
'Cause He knows my name

Every step that I take
Every move that I make
Every tear that I cried
He knows my name
