“I’m Richly Blessed.”

“I’m richly blessed”.
Cos’ God loves me
And on a cross at Calvary
Jesus died for me
I’m richly blessed.”

“I’m richly blessed.”
With lovely days
Opportunities to praise
With Jesus walking all my ways
“I’m richly blessed”.

“I’m richly blessed”.
With loving friends
And all the gifts
That Jesus sends.
“I’m richly blessed”.

“I’m richly blessed.”
A child of God am I,
And one day I will fly,
To my home above the sky
“I’m richly blessed”

“I’m richly blessed.”
Oh What a treat!
When Jesus I meet
I’ll kneel at His feet,
“I WILL BE RICHLY BLESSED”

Your Burden

When you’re feeling weak and frail,
And you think your strength will fail,
Speak to God, He’s always near,
He will surely answer prayer

If the path is rough and steep,
And you are like a weary sheep,
Let the Shepherd carry you,
He will always see you through.

If today the load is telling,
And to give up, quite compelling,
Lean on the Lord, He’ll take the strain,
He’ll give instead a sweet refrain.

When you feel let down by others,
Even family , sisters, brothers,
He will be there, to help you stand,
Faithfully to hold your hand.

Then one great day if you endure,
He’ll take you home, you can be sure,
Then you and Him will be together;
To live in heaven’s home, forever.

My Friend

When my friends seem to forget me
And I’m feeling rather low,
There’s someone who’ll always be,
A loving, caring, friend I know..
This friend is Jesus!

When you’re longing for another,
Who will come longside to care;
One whose closer than a brother,
And will with your burden share.
That friend is Jesus!

When the day is dark and depressing,
And you need a friend to cheer;
Who will bring the sunshine shining
And so keep you free from fear.
This friend is Jesus!

When you trip and almost fall,
And you need to hold a hand :
I know one that you can call,
Who will lift you, help you stand.
This friend is Jesus!
David Moody

Thank you Father.
L.M.

I thank you Father for your Son,
Who has for us the victory won
He rescued us from sin and shame,
And gave us freedom through His name.

We thank you Father for your love,
Revealed in Jesus from above,
He walked this scene so meek and mild
And reached right down to bless a child.

We thank you Father for your grace,
And through your Son we see your face,
Your perfect image is revealed,
In every step and word and deed.

We thank you Father for your care,
At home, at work and every where;
Your angel does around us dwell,
To keep us safe, so all is well.

We thank you Father for the hope
Which fills our hearts and helps us cope;
Your promise stands, it will endure,
We’ll live with you, we can be sure.

Mr. Preacher

Mr. Preacher!
Preach the Word,
Some in church
Have never heard.
Tell it as it really is;
Not wrapped up
In religious clutter.
Open your mouth
Do not mutter:
Please do not sit
There on the fence?
Preach God’s Word
Without pretence.
Men and women
Need the truth
That Christ has died
And risen again.
Tell it clear,
Preach it plain,
That Christ is
Coming back again.

First Day

The first day of the week,
The women went,
To the garden tomb,
Their crucified Lord to seek.
Not here, but risen!

Peter ran and John ran too,
And outran Peter,
But went not in through fear,
His blessed Lord to view
Not here, but risen!

David Moody

When Jesus came.

When Jesus Christ came to this planet,
He came to dwell and walk here in it,
Love brought Him here to save mankind,
They were so sinful, lost, and blind.

I see the Saviour lifted high
Upon a cross of shame, to die,
It was our sins that took Him there,
That we might in His glory share.

He paid sin’s price when on the tree,
That those in bondage might be free;
He cried, “tis finished”, then He died,
So sinners can be justified.

I now peruse the empty tomb,
And cannot see him through the gloom,
But angels shining, tell me clear,
My Lord is risen! “He’s not here”.

The Lord arose on the third day,
On Olive’s Mount, we hear Him say,
“Go preach the word, throughout the earth,
So they’ll believe and gain new birth”.

My Lord is now at God’s right hand,
It is fulfilled, what God has planned;
All creatures soon will bend the knee,
With kings and rulers prostrate be.

I wait the time, when Christ will come,
And take His blood-bought people home;
The clouds will part, I’ll see His face,
And dwell in that most glorious place.

So then forever with my Lord,
I’ll join in heaven’s sweet accord;
Then through eternity I’ll raise,
With angels choirs, my song
