Best Friends

Cold and in the snow an orphan with no place to go ask a man
Sir can you spare a dime
The man shook his head he said I’ll tell you something instead
You see that little house down the street
Knock on the door and say John 3:16 sent me

She looked at his tattered coat, his worn out shoes and little
Red nose she said ..come on in there’s warm food on the stove
He ate and then she said “a warm bath for you then off to bed’
That’s’ when she saw a tear run down his cheek
He said mam I don’t know John 3:16 I don’t know why but he
Has sure been good to me today

He’s made this poor boy glad and Im thankful for the food the fire
And the good warm bed. When you see him will you tell him for me
…Im not cold – lonely – or sad….
and that John 3:16 has been the best friend I’ve ever had

Years came and went and often she would think of him
and remember when he knelt down and prayed.
Revival came to town
They said the preacher was renown
so she went to the church down the street.
When he stood to preach tears ran down her cheeks
He said open up your bible to John 3:16

He said He made this lost boy saved
and Im thankful for His sacrifice
and what He did that day…He found me when I just a lad
Im not orphaned or alone and now I have a dad…
and John 3:16 is still the best friend I’ve ever had

Walking By Faith

The road I face ahead may not be easy
There may be some twists and turns along the way
But I'm thankful that the Lord, He leads me
And His guiding hand will help me stand
as I struggle day by day

I'm walking by faith and not by sight
Living for the Lord and doing what's right
Knowing my sins have all been covered
by the Great I am (I am)
No need to worry, fear or care
for the Lord is always there
Let come what may
I'm on my way
I'm walking by faith

Sometimes I can't see what lies before me
And I follow him into the darkness night
But every step I take it draws me closer
And I won't turn around
because I found that Jesus is the Light (the Light)

I'm walking by faith and not by sight
Living for the Lord and doing what's right
Knowing my sins have all been covered
by the Great I am (I am)
No need to worry, fear or care
for the Lord is always there
Let come what may
I'm on my way
I'm walking by faith

Let come what may
I'm on my way
I'm walking by faith

What A Wonderful Savior Is He

I once wandered out in sin and despair
But the Savior heard me pleading in prayer
Broke the chains of Satan setting me free
What a wonderful Savior is He

What a wonderful Savior is He
What a wonderful Savior to me
How He loved me so
I never could see
What a wonderful Savior is He

Weak unworthy I was wandering that day
With the light of love that shown on my way
Just as sinful as a sinner could be
What a wonderful Savior is He

What a wonderful Savior is He
What a wonderful Savior to me
How He loved me so
I never could see
What a wonderful Savior is He

What a wonderful Savior is He
What a wonderful Savior to me
How He loved me so
I never could see
What a wonderful Savior is He

What a wonderful Savior is He

What a Savior, What a Master

1. There's a man who can walk on water
and calm the raging seas.
He can bind up the broken hearted
and set the captives free.
He can heal you and He can fill you
with love you've never known.
What a Savior, what a Master.
Do you call Him your own?

What a Savior and what a Master
and what a friend is He
Left his glory and went to Calvary
Just to set me free.
To describe Him would take forever
so I'll just simply say:
What a Savior what a Master,
Do you know Him today?

2. Just imagine that we're in heaven
and all our troubles are gone.
 oh what singing and oh what shouting,
and how were gonna carry on.
when we see our blessed Jesus
I believe were gonna say.
what a Savior what a Master,
He took my sins all away.

What a Savior and what a master
and what a friend is He
Left his glory and went to Calvary
Just to set me free.
To describe Him would take forever
so I'll just simply say.
What a Savior what a Master,
Do you know Him today?

What a Savior what a master,
Do you know Him today?

Sowin' Love

I use to love to walk behind my daddy
As he plowed our garden every spring
Our little bare feet in the dirt would make me happy
As we talked about what harvest time would bring

He'd say son this whole world is like a garden
And what you sow your surely gonna reap
Where bitter seeds are planted hearts will harden
But a caring hand will make the harvest sweet

And he was sowin' love for the family
Yeah, he was sowin' love, he took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good father does he was sowin' love

How I use to love and sit and watch my momma
Workin' with her needle and her thread
So patiently she'd listen to our problems
And we knew she heard every word we said

She'd say, "Children this old world is full of scratches
And in your life your bound to have a few"
I guess that's why the good Lord gave us patches
So we could start each day out feelin' new

Yes, she was sowin' love for the family
She was sowin' love, she took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
Like a good momma does she was sowin' love

Yeah, they were sowin' love for the family
They were sowin' love, they took a little extra time
Lookin' forward to a bountiful harvest
They took good care of us they were sowin' love
Yeah, they did it all for us they were sowin' love

One Day At A Time

I'm only human I'm just a man
Help me to believe in what I could be and all that I am
Show me the stairway that I have to climb
Lord for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

One day at a time sweet Jesus that's all I'm asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Do you remember when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know if you're looking below it's worse now than then
Pushing and shoving crawding my mind
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

One day at a time sweet Jesus that's all I'm asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday's gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
Yes just for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Thy Word

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path

When I feel afraid
Think I've lost my way
Still you're there right beside me
And nothing will I fear
As long as you are near
Please be near me to the end

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path

I will not forget
Your love for me and yet
My heart forever is wandering
Jesus be my guide
And hold me to your side
I will love you to the end

Nothing will I fear as long as you are near
Please be near me to the end

Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path
Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path
And a light unto my path
You're the light unto my path

Daystar Shine Down On Me

Lily of the Valley, let your sweet aroma fill my life
Rose of Sharon show me how to grow in beauty in God's sight
Fairest of ten thousand make me a reflection of your light
Daystar shine down on me let your love shine through me in the night

Lead me Lord, I'll follow. Anywhere you open up the door
Let your word speak to me, show me what I've never seen before
Lord I want to be your witness, you can take what's wrong and make it right
Daystar shine down on me, let your love shine through me in the night

Lord I've seen a world that's dying wounded by the master of deceit
Groping in the darkness, haunted by the years of past defeat
But when I see you standing near me shining with compassion in your eyes
I pray Jesus shine down on me let your love shine through me in the night

Lead me Lord, I'll follow anywhere you open up the door
Let your word speak to me, show me what I've never seen before
Lord I want to be your witness, you can take what's wrong and make it right
Daystar shine down on me, let your love shine through me in the night

O Master Let Me Walk With Thee

1
O Master, let me walk with thee
in lowly paths of service free;
tell me thy secret; help me bear
the strain of toil, the fret of care.

2
Help me the slow of heart to move
by some clear, winning word of love;
teach me the wayward feet to stay,
and guide them in the homeward way.

3
Teach me thy patience; still with thee
in closer, dearer company,
in work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
in trust that triumphs over wrong;

4
In hope that sends a shining ray
far down the future’s broadening way,
in peace that only thou canst give,
with thee, O Master, let me live.

O Let Me Walk With Thee

1
O let me walk with Thee, my God,
As Enoch walked in days of old;
Place Thou my trembling hand in Thine,
And sweet communion with me hold;
E’en though the path I may not see,
Yet, Jesus, let me walk with Thee.

2
I cannot, dare not, walk alone;
The tempest rages in the sky,
A thousand snares beset my feet,
A thousand foes are lurking nigh.
Still Thou the raging of the sea,
O Master! let me walk with Thee.

3
If I may rest my hand in Thine,
I’ll count the joys of earth but loss,
And firmly, bravely journey on;
I’ll bear the banner of the cross
Till Zion’s glorious gates I see;
Yet, Savior, let me walk with Thee.
