Thru The Blood Of Jesus

Thru the Blood of Jesus

 

It’s thru the power in the blood of Jesus

By the cross is how He see’s us

The world is who He loves

Even the rich who hang out in clubs

 

It’s was me who had ears to hear

In my heart the message was so clear

Now I know that freedom is real

Come on satan, my soul you can’t steal

 

The image of christ is who I want to be

So the Light of Christ is who you’ll see

If you’re broken and lost

Know that, for you, Christ died on that cross

 

There’s freedom to be had by breaking every chain

He’ll wipe all your tears, then clean all your stains

So if you’re down and out, living on the street

Drop to your knees, Jesus is who you will meet

 

Now He cleaned you up, so much that you will glow

Stay in Gods Word, it’s how you will grow

HE washed their feet, as an example to serve

He gave you His Word, so in it you won’t swerve

 

On the cross Christ took our sin

Now I can say Christ is my friend

So if you’re living against God’s law

Please answer when Christ calls

 

So when you reach up and grab God’s hand

Then you realize that it was God’s plan

It’s God’s love that you’re called to give

Stand firm, so it’s the Gospel you will live.

In The Mirror

When I look in the mirror

Who do I see

Someone in a broken glass

Trying to be me

When I put on a front

I put on a mask

Who am I hiding from

Behind this broken glass

Masks are made

But should never be worn

I hide behind masks

So my heart is not torn

Then came You

Breaking my chains

You started with my heart

Then cleaned all my stains

I got rid of that ole mask

I have nothing to hide

Your Word’s in my heart

It’s in what I abide

Now when I look in a mirror

Who do I see

An image of Christ

Is what I’m trying to be

His Love

His Love

Jesus’ love protected me

From dying on that cursed tree

It is His love that guides my faith

Thru trying times that can’t be waived

His love is what gives me peace

When I carry my burdens to the tree

It is His love that made a way

To be called and then He sealed my fate

His love is faithful, kind and true

It fell on me like morning dew

It is His love that changed my heart

I now have light and not always dark

His love is what brings salvation

His message must go to the nations

It’s His love that’s why I serve

His Word I never have to swerve

His love is what I love the most

I Love you child says the Lord of Host

By His Blood

Colossians 2:11-12

In him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands, by putting off the body of the flesh, by the circumcision of Christ, 13. having been buried with him in baptisim, in which you were also raised with him through faith in the powerful working of God, who raised him from the dead.

 

By His Blood

 

Christ paid a debt

Man could never pay

He nailed our sin to the cross

By His Blood He made a way

 

Thru His death and resurrection

We are reconciled to our God

Thru the cross He made the way

For God to no longer see our flaws

 

We are circumcised by the Spirit

To believe in Christ’ Holy Name

To believe in Christ in faith

We’ll never be the same

 

We are now a new creation

To walk humbly with our God

Be forever on your guard

For satan points out our flaws

 

In Christ’ Name we persevere

Thru our every trial

In Christ, He is the One

Who carries us every mile

 

We are saved By His Blood

To walk humbly with our God

Please open up your heart

To forever stand in AWE

Your Redemption Plan

Your Redemption Plan

 

Your Love walked the earth as man

To share the message of Your redemption plan

 

You put Your Love upon the cross

Your intention is to save who’s lost

 

Your Love is who defeated the grave

Because Your Love I know I’m saved

 

He rose to life after three days

The penalty for sin has been paid

 

You went to hell to free the slaves

From the prison of their graves

 

Inside our heart is where You live

Service to You is what we give

 

Your Word is what transforms my heart

It calms my storm and is where newness starts

 

Now I’m free to live for you

To trust Your Word through and through

 

Your Spirit is now my guide

From Your Truth I can no longer hide

 

I’m thankful for Your Redemption plan

For Your Love that died for man

We Are Called To Love

We Are Called To Love

 

We are called to live not in fear

But to draw close to God, who is always near

 

We are called to be His feet and hands

To trust Him thru this all, He has a plan

 

We are called to walk humbly with our God

To love the world in spite of all our flaws

 

We are called to love the least of these

To ask for power thru prayer from our knees

 

We are called in the midst of tragedy

To show Christ’s love thru humility

 

We are called to love our enemies

Which takes strength from our knees

 

Above all, we are plainly called to love

To show the world there’s the God above
