You Walk In Lonely Places - Michael Card







 
When they told you of the Baptist
Of what Herod's men had done
You fled into the wilderness
You fled to be alone
And you grieved the world's cruelty
You knew in flesh and bone
The heartache of "mistreated"
And the sorrow of "alone"

Lord you walked in lonely places
Oh you felt our emptiness
Lord you walked in lonely places
To know the pain of man

In Gethsemane you struggled
Just to make it through the night
You called on those who loved you
But weren't ready for the fight
And you pleaded as they slumbered on
You knew in breath and blood
The heartache of "abandoned"
And the suffering of "one"

Lord you walked in lonely places
Oh you felt our emptiness
Lord you walked in lonely places
To know the pain of man

And in my darkest hours
I call upon Your name, oh Lord
And You come into the solitude
Of what I cannot face alone
Of what I cannot face alone

Lord you walked in lonely places
Oh you felt our emptiness
Lord you walked in lonely places
To know the pain of man
Lord you walked in lonely places
To know the pain of man

Qualified - Travis Eades - Follow Me Part 2

I Left Everything To Follow You - Michael Card



Though sometimes I grow weary when the road's getting long
At each point of my weakness You make me strong
And when doubt takes over I remember it's true
I left everything to follow You
To stay safe or follow You asked me to choose
But how could I fail when I've got nothing left to lose?
Without Your Call I couldn't make it
It'd be impossible to do
Everything to follow, everything to follow, everything to follow You
But what is my petty offering
Compared to Your sacrifice?
I gave up my home
But You left paradise
And what You called me to offer has really set me free
Cause You left everything to be with me
So with joy I embrace a faith that calls me from home
And I will cling to Your promise that I am never alone
And with each passing moment I'll keep hoping it's true
I left everything to follow You
Everything to follow, everything to follow, everything to follow You

New Jerusalem - Michael Card


I saw the Holy City,
Descending from the sky
So brilliant with the light of God
The city is His bride
There is no temple in this town
No sun, no moon, no lamp
For God's own glory is it's light
Illuminated by the Lamb
And God Himself will wipe the tears
From every weeping eye
No death, no pain, no mourning cry
And every tear made dry

And now our God will dwell with them
The new Jerusalem
And He Himself will walk with them
The new Jersulaem

And so let all of those who thirst
Come now and drink for free
And to the one who overcomes
Come now and you will see
Behold the old has passed away
Now everything is new
The Alpha and Omega's words
Are trustworthy and so true 
And God Himself will wipe the tears
From every weeping eye
No death, no pain, no mourning cry
And every tear made dry

And now our God will dwell with them
The new Jerusalem
And He Himself will walk with them
The new Jersulaem

And now our God will dwell with them
The new Jerusalem
And He Himself will walk with them
The new Jersulaem
And He Himself will walk with them
The new Jersulaem

When You Long For a Companion – Anne Graham Lotz about the Holy Spirit


Will The Circle Be Unbroken - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band · Mother Maybelle Carter and many more 1972



I was standing by the window
On one cold and cloudy day
And I saw the hearse come rolling
For to carry my mother away
 
Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
 
Lord, I told the undertaker
Undertaker, please drive slow
For this body you are hauling Lord
I hate to see her go
 
Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
 
I followed close behind her
Tried to hold up and be brave
But I could not hide my sorrow
When they laid her in her grave
 
Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky
 
 I Went back home 
Lord, my home was lonesome
Miss my mother she was gone
All my brothers, sisters crying
What a home so sad and lone
 
Will the circle be unbroken
Bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye
There's a better home a-waiting
In the sky, Lord, in the sky

Until Then - Charles Billingsley sings with the choir & orchestra of the First Baptist Church, Jacksonville, FL



My heart can sing when I pause to remember 
A heartache here is but a stepping stone 
Along the trail that's winding always upward
This troubled world is not my final home 

But until then my heart will go on singing 
 Until then with joy I'll carry on 
Until the day my eyes behold the city 
Until the day God calls me home 

The things of earth will dim and lose their value 
If we recall they're borrowed for a while 
And things of earth that cause this heart to tremble 
Remembered there will only bring a smile 

But until then my heart will go on singing 
Until then with joy I'll carry on 
Until the day my eyes behold that city 
Until the day God calls me home 

What A Day That Will Be 
What a day that will be, 
When my Jesus I shall see, 
And I look upon His face, 
The One who saved me by His grace; 
When He takes me by the hand, 
And leads me through the Promised Land, 
What a day, glorious day that will be.
