Peter's Song - Michael O'Brien live from Gateway Church Easter 2013



I recall; something in the way he called
my name,
an ordinary fisherman
He called me friend and took me in
How everything had changed
It was then I knew
I’d never be the same.

Love came and rescued me
I gave up my everything
To follow …
Now I know
All that I was before
It won’t matter anymore
Cause I am a new man
Cause I have seen my savior
Face to face.

I recall
Standing in the courtyard
By the fire
Your words still ringing in my head
Three times before the break of the morn´
you would be denied
and yet I saw no judgement in your eyes

Love came and died for me
I gave up my everything
To follow …
Now I know
All that I was before
Is dead and it lives no more
For I am
A new man
Cause I have seen my savior
Face to face.

The dark night
The new day
The stone was rolled away
My savior
You are alive!
Ascended to heaven
I know that you will come again
That moment I will arise
To worship before the throne
To bow down;  for you alone
are worthy so worthy
And there with the saints of old
I’ll  sing out a brand new song
In heaven forever
When I will see my savior
Face to face.
Face to face

Safe in the Arms of Jesus - George Beverly Shea



Lyrics: Fanny J. Crosby,   1868 
Music: William H. Doane, 1868

Safe in the arms of Jesus.
Safe on His gentle breast.
There by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.

Hark! 'tis the voice of angels,
Born in a song to me.
Over the fields of glory,
Over the jasper sea.

Safe in the arms of Jesus.
Safe on His gentle breast.
There by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.

Jesus, my heart's dear Refuge,
Jesus has died for me;
Firm on the Rock of Ages
Ever my trust shall be.

Here let me wait with patience,
Wait till the night is o'er;
Wait till I see the morning
break on the golden shore.

Safe in the arms of Jesus.
Safe on His gentle breast.
There by His love o'ershaded,
Sweetly my soul shall rest.

"Redeemed and I Love to Proclaim it" - Fanny Crosby - Wintley Phipps


I know there’s a crown that is waiting
In yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon, with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.
