  • FESTIVALS OF LIGHT

    Shepherd’s Song

    Come, my children, gather ‘round

    I will tell a story

    About a simple shepherd boy

    Who heard the angels sing

    Once in these Judean hills

    The sky was filled with glory

    And echoed with a song of proclamation for a king


    Hallelujah, hallelujah

    Born in the city of David

    There is a child whose name is Yeshua

    He’s the Messiah, the Savior


    A night of fear and mystery

    A night of wondrous joy

    Led to a lowly stable

    The Shepherd found the infant boy

    Born in the town of Bethlehem

    As the prophet did foretell

    Could this son of Yoseph and Miryam

    Be the one to shepherd Israel?


    Hallelujah, hallelujah

    Born in the city of David

    There is a child whose name is Yeshua

    He’s the Messiah, the Savior


    Through the years the shepherd

    Watched the child grow

    And the shepherd came to love him

    And all who followed came to know

    Yeshua held a promise

    He was born to keep

    Then they watched as that Good Shepherd

    Laid his life down for His sheep


    Though my story here is ending

    Ever more my Shepherd King

    Is the One I’ll be proclaiming

    As the angel’s song I sing


    Hallelujah, hallelujah

    Born in the city of David

    There is a child whose name is Yeshua

    He’s the Messiah, My Messiah

    He’s my Messiah


    Hallelujah, hallelujah

    Praise to the Shepherd of Israel

    He is the One, His name is Yeshua!

    He’s the Messiah!

    Our Savior!!


     


    Little Lamb

    Poem by William Blake

    Music by Marty Goetz


    Little Lamb who made thee?

    Do you know who made thee?

    Gave thee life and bid thee feed

    By the stream and or the mead


    Gave thee clothing of delight

    Softest clothing wooly bright

    Gave thee such a lovely voice

    Making all the vales rejoice


    Little Lamb who made thee?

    Do you know who made thee?

    Do you know who made thee?


    Little Lamb I’ll tell thee

    Little Lamb I’ll tell thee

    He is called by thy name

    For He calls Himself a Lamb

    He is meek and He is mild

    He became a little child


    I a child and thou a Lamb

    We are both called by His name


    Little Lamb God bless thee

    Little Lamb God bless thee

    Little Lamb God bless thee

    Far away in the dark, dark night shines the Christmas star

    It sheds it’s light over all the earth to lead men from afar


    (Chorus)

    Bright, bright Christmas Star, 

    Shine, shine on us!

    Lead us to the little child

    Born in Bethlehem


    Where is He whose star we’ve seen

    Heralding good news?

    For we have come to worship Him

    Born King of the Jews!


    (Chorus)

    Bright, bright Christmas Star, 

    Shine, shine on us!

    Lead us to the little child

    Born in Bethlehem


     


    Arise Shine


    (Isaiah 60)

    Words and music by Marty Goetz & Wendell Burton

    A people in darkness

    They stumble with eyes that cannot see

    Alone in the night, they hope for the light, they long for the brightness


    But on the horizon

    He comes with the glory of the sun

    Or the rush of a stream, to heal and redeem

    His radiance gleaming


    (Chorus)

    Arise. Shine, your light has come

    The glory of the Lord has risen upon you

    Arise, shine, your light has come

    Lift up your eyes and see, lift up your eyes and see!


    Behold! The new Zion

    Set up so high on His holy hill

    A torch in the night, a city of light

    Ablaze with His brightness


    Oh, see your redeemer!

    Hear His voice like the roar of a thousand seas

    Awake you who sleep

    Though the climb may be steep

    I call to my people!


    (Chorus)


    See the scepter raised in Judah

    Ruling kingdoms by His might!

    See the star arise in Jacob! (Num. 24:17)

    No more sun to rule by day, no more moon to rule by night

    He will be your everlasting light!! (Rev. 21:23)


    (Chorus)

    O come, O come Emmanuel and ransom captive Israel

    That mourns in lonely exile here

    Until the Son of God appears


    O come thou Dayspring

    Come and cheer our spirits by thine advent here

    Disperse the gloomy clouds of night

    And death’s dark shadows put to flight


    Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel 

    Shall come to thee O Israel


    O come, Emmanuel, your people cry

    Be God with us, Messiah, Adonai

    Yes come, and all your children bless

    And turn us from our sins to righteousness!


    Rejoice, rejoice! Emmanuel shall come to thee, O, Israel

    Rejoice, rejoice Emmanuel has come to thee O Israel.


     


    Prince of Peace


    Words & Music By Marty Goetz

    Grandpa studied Torah from the time he was a boy

    And until the day he passed away it was just his highest joy

    And sometimes I think about what Grandpa would have said

    Had he heard how I interpreted these words I’m sure he read


    Chorus:

    Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given

    And the increase of His peace shall have no end

    And His name is Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace


    As a young man I would meet some people who would claim

    The Prince of Peace already came, Y’shua was His name

    But that is not what I’d been taught, I thought “How could that be?”

    ‘Til one day by grace He found a place for His peace to reign in me


    (Chorus)

    Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given

    And the increase of His peace shall have no end

    And His name is Wonderful, Counselor, the mighty God 

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace


    Bridge:

    What He has spoken He has done

    When the fullness of the time had come

    A virgin girl brought forth a Son called Emmanuel

    He’s with us now as He was then

    Bringing peace on earth good will to men


    Unto us in Bethlehem has come a King who will come again!!!


    (Chorus)

    Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given

    And the increase of His peace shall have no end

    And His name is Wonderful, Counselor, Almighty God

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace


     


    Chanukah


    Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz

    ©1997 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    Make my life Your temple

    Lord at this season start

    To pull down every idol I have raised up in my heart


    On this Chanukah

    On this Feast of Dedication

    I dedicate myself to You


    Take my defiled altar

    Come and cleanse and come repair

    So every time I falter I can run to meet you there


    On this Chanukah

    On this Feast of Dedication

    I dedicate myself to You


    And with every candle on the menorah

    That illuminates the night

    Comes a prayer You’d kindle

    In me Yeshua

    A desire for Your fire, for Your light


    Make of my mortal body

    A house worthy of Your name

    Rid me of what’s ungodly and every hidden thing of shame


    On this Chanukah

    On this Feast of Dedication

    I dedicate myself to You


    And with every candle on the menorah

    That illuminates the night

    Comes my prayer You’d kindle

    In me Messiah

    A desire for Your fire, for Your light


    Take my supply of oil

    Not enough to burn long I fear

    But, oh how I pray I may one day say “A great miracle happened here!”


    On this Chanukah

    On this Feast of Dedication

    I dedicate myself to You

    My Yeshua, I dedicate myself to you….


     


    The Gift of Christmas


    Words and music by Marty Goetz & Wendell Burton

    © Singin In The Reign Music/ASCAP & Cross Purpose Music/ASCAP


    Above the city streets church bells are chimin’

    The lights of red and green sparkle in the night

    There’s a stirring in the air as people everywhere

    Rush home to bring that special thing 

    That makes their holiday just right


    Amidst the joyous sounds of celebration

    And decoration wrapped around this time of year

    In the quiet of your heart, just a tiny missing part

    Comes ringin’ through askin’ you 

    Where in all this Christmas cheer is…


    Christmas?, Somewhere in it all there must be

    Christmas…a moment to recall in all of this, just

    Waitin’ to reveal the wonder of the season

    Deep within you feel there’s got to be a reason for

    All the songs that fill the air and the love we long to share

    Christmas must be there……


    Beneath the Christmas tree it lies unopened

    A gift so small overlooked by all but few

    Plain and unadorned with paper frayed and worn

    But look again, for wrapped within 

    You’ll find a treasure waits for you…it’s


    Christmas! Right before your eyes, the gift of

    Christmas…imagine your surprise in finding this…

    The Hope of the world, lyin’ in a manger

    The promise of His love offerin’ to change your heart

    So, if you hear a baby’s sighs, look to where He lies

    You’ll find Christmas in His eyes, 

    The gift of Christmas in His eyes…..

    Verse 2: 

    Rock of ages let our song 

    praise thy saving power 

    thou amidst the raging foe

    was’t our sheltering tower

    furious they assailed us

    but thine arm availed us 

    and thy word broke their sword

    when our own strength failed us

    and thy word broke their sword 

    when our own strength failed us


    Hark the Herald Angels Sing 

    Hark the herald angels sing

    Glory to the newborn King

    Peace on earth and mercy mild

    God and sinners reconciled

    Joyful all ye nations rise

    Join the triumph of the skies

    With th'angelic hosts proclaim

    Christ is born in Bethlehem

    Hark the herald angels sing

    Glory to the newborn King


    (Written below is the literal English translation of the Hebrew in the song, Maoz Tzur)


    O Fortress, Rock of my salvation, 

    Unto thee it is becoming to give praise: 

    Let my house of prayer be restored, and I will there offer thee thanksgiving; 

    When thou shalt have prepared a slaughter of the blaspheming foe, 

    I will complete with song and psalm the dedication of the altar.

  • HOPE OF GLORY

    Show Me Thy Glory

    See your servant Lord, turning toward You

    One more troubadour who’s adored You 

    For throughout the years, 

    Through the triumphs through the tears

    You have met him here

    So here is where I’ll seek You as I did then

    Hear me when I speak to You once again 

    Lord, throughout my days, 

    All the things You do amaze

    You show me Your works; 

    You show me your ways


    Chorus:

    Now show me, I pray Thee, Thy glory

    Hide me in Your hand and pass before me 

    How can I go on if You’re not with me?

    So show me I pray Thee, Thy glory

    Show me I pray Thee, Thy glory


    With the fire, with the cloud in the wilderness

    By Your presence You gave Your people rest

    And I’m asking that now 

    You would do no less

    I need Your presence

    Please me grant my request


    Chorus:

    Show me, I pray Thee, Thy glory

    Hide me in Your hand, and pass before me

    I know I can go on if You’ll go with me

    So show me I pray Thee, Thy glory

    Show me I pray Thee (3x)

    Thy glory


     


    Search Me Oh God


    (Psalm 139)

    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 2006 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    You have searched me, 

    You have known me, 

    You’re acquainted with my ways

    You have laid Your hand upon me, 

    Heard my thoughts from far away

    In the nighttime or the light, 

    I’m just as visible to You

    How marvelous this knowledge is 

    And how I need You too….


    Chorus:

    Search me O God and know my heart

    Try me O God; know my anxiety

    See if there be any wicked way in me 

    And lead me in Your everlasting way

    Lead me in Your everlasting way

    Search me O God


    How precious are Your thoughts toward me 

    How great is the sum of them 

    In Your book, were the days You had for me 

    When as yet there was none of them

    I will praise You 

    For I’m fearfully and wonderfully made

    My soul knows well how skillful 

    Is the one to whom I pray


    Chorus:

    Search me O God and know my heart

    Try me O God; know my anxiety

    See if there be any wicked way in me 

    And lead me in Your everlasting way

    Lead me in Your everlasting way

    Search me O God


    And where can I go from Your presence?

    Where can I hide from Your spirit?

    If I rise into heaven, You are there

    And if I make my bed in hell, You are there

    If I ride upon the wings of morning

    Or if I sail the farthest sea

    Even there Your hand will hold me


    Chorus:

    Search me O God and know my heart

    Try me O God; know my anxiety

    See if there be any wicked way in me

    And lead me in Your everlasting way

    Lead me in Your everlasting way

    Lead me in Your everlasting way

    Search me O God

    Search me O God


     


    Teach Us to Number Our Days


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 2006 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    Lord You have been our dwelling place 

    In every generation

    Day out and day in, Your love, Your grace, 

    Sustains every living thing

    But like the grass, these creatures You’ve made 

    We grow soon to wither and fade

    Then You’ll say, “Return, O children of men.” 

    So help us learn this lesson ‘til then…


    Chorus:

    Teach us to number our days 

    That we may gain a heart of wisdom

    Teach us to number our days

    To be glad to rejoice in them


    O how we love this time this place 

    But it’s not our destination

    We struggle we strive to run this race 

    With all of the strength we can bring 

    Then in what is but the blink of an eye 

    We finish our years like a sigh

    So help us now, Lord show us how 

    We can redeem days that pass like a dream


    Chorus:

    And teach us to number our days 

    That we may gain a heart of wisdom

    Teach us to number our days

    To be glad to rejoice in them 

    For a thousand years in your sight 

    Is merely a watch in the night

    So before they all fly away

    Teach us to number our days


    Bridge:

    We’re given to pride so unsatisfied 

    Still You provide such mercy

    In light of our sin, how can we begin 

    To thank You for placing Your beauty within


    Chorus:

    Teach us to number our days

    That we may gain a heart of wisdom

    Teach us to number our days

    To be glad to rejoice in them

    For a thousand years in your sight 

    Is merely a watch in the night

    So before they all fly away

    Teach us to number our days


    Yes, before we all fly away

    Teach us to number our days

    Drink From The River


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 2006 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    You say you’re traveler just passing by

    Your road has been long 

    Your throat’s parched and dry

    And while on the way you heard someone say 

    There’s a fountain for the weary in heart


    Chorus:

    That gives you drink from the river

    The river of life, 

    Gives you drink from the river that never runs dry.

    Drink from the river, the living water 

    Where all who are thirsty can be satisfied


    I’ve little to offer a stranger like you

    Some rest and some shelter it’s the best I can do

    So you’re welcome to stay and oh by the way 

    This fountain I’ve heard of it too


    Chorus:

    I’ve heard it gives drink from the river

    The river of life

    It gives drink from the river 

    That never runs dry

    Drink from the river, the living water 

    Where all who are thirsty can be satisfied


    Bridge:

    They say it gives hope to the hopeless 

    And gives peace to the troubled mind

    A way that the lost and seeking can find

    Where there’s strength for the lame 

    And there’s sight for the blind


    They say there’s a teacher from Galilee 

    Who says if your thirsty come, come to me 

    And if you believe you will receive 

    A fountain that flows from your heart.


    Chorus:

    Drink from the river, the river of life

    Come and drink from the river that never runs dry

    Drink from the river, the living water 

    And oh what pleasure, 

    In that water from the river

    The river of life.

    Oh Lord my heart is quieted 

    My thoughts are not too proud

    The shadows flee, my eyes can see You now

    I do not occupy myself 

    With things too great for me

    Here in Your stillness, is where I long to be


    Chorus:

    And I have calmed my troubled heart, 

    I have quieted my soul,

    Like a child at its mother’s breast, 

    I find my strength and take my rest

    In the shelter of Your arms, 

    There is life to make me whole

    I have calmed my heart and quieted my soul


    But should I not be comforted 

    When darkness falls again

    When I am weak, will I still seek You then?

    Lord, help me hear You call my name, 

    Above the raging sea

    O Israel, come put your trust in Me


    Chorus:

    I have calmed my troubled heart, 

    I have quieted my soul

    I have calmed my heart and quieted my soul

    In spiritual joy, I dwell, 

    My faith has made me cease 

    To question, ponder, pause or doubt 

    And this has brought me peace

    My soul has waked to glory, 

    my eyes are turned above

    I wait the Master’s kingdom 

    With reverential love


    He’s promised me a dwelling place, 

    That He will prepare 

    And a crown of glory, He wants me to wear

    And all His inheritance He wants me to share

    So, I’ll work out my salvation 

    With fear and trembling

    And daily make my prayer, 

    That it’s Him I’ll be resembling 

    Glory to glory, even by His spirit,

    Moment by moment, 

    When the Master speaks I’ll hear it


    (Hebrew singing)


    Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh

    Adonai Tz’vaot

    Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty

    The earth belongs to You

    We’ll prepare to go with You, Lord

    But until the day we do, Lord, 

    Minute by minute, we’ll continue in the story

    This mystery, Christ in us the hope of glory

    From the rising of the sun until it’s setting 

    The name of the Lord is to be praised

    When the stone was rolled away

    Because You live, we rise to give 

    Our offering each day

    The name of the Lord is to be praised

    From the rising of the sun until it’s setting

    He Who Dwells

    Angels all around me 

    Guide my footsteps, lest I stray

    Evil ones surround me, 

    Though their power’s kept at bay

    And though terror strikes by nighttime 

    And the arrows fly by day

    Lord, You are my refuge, 

    I will trust in You and say,


    Chorus:

    He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty 

    He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the secret place of God.


    Cover me with feathers from Your wings, 

    I’m hiding there 

    Underneath the canopy of safety and of care

    And if once again I wander, 

    Find my foot trapped in the snare

    Even though I can see no escape, I’ll still declare,


    Chorus:

    He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty

    He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the secret place of God.


    “Those who know and love me 

    I will rescue,” says the Lord, 

    “Favor and abundant life I’ll give as My reward

    And when they’re in trouble, 

    I will answer when they cry,

    Their eye will see My glory 

    For I’ll raise them up on high.”


    Chorus:

    Those who dwell in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty

    You who dwell in the shelter of the Most High 

    Will abide in the secret place


    You’ll abide in the secret place

    We’ll abide in the secret place of God.

    Lord, you are our God, Redeemer of Israel

    Lord, you are our God, 

    There is no other, no Savior but you

    For You have done wonderful things

    From of old You’ve been faithful and true


    Chorus:

    And You’ll come to Your temple 

    To rule and to reign

    And the nations will tremble and fear 

    But all of Your people will say in that day, 

    “This is the Lord, we have waited for Him 

    And at last He is here!”


    Behold, our God is near, He’s comin’ quickly 

    Very soon, He will appear

    He’s the beginning and He has no end, 

    Every word He has spoken, He’ll do

    For His name it is Faithful and True


    Chorus:

    And He’ll come to His temple to rule and to reign

    And the nations will tremble and fear 

    But all of His people will say in that day 

    “This is the Lord, we have waited for Him 

    And, at last, He is here.”


    And to Yerushalayim He’ll come 

    And the sun and the moon disappear 

    For the light of the world has returned for His own, 

    He is the Lord

    We have waited for Him and at last….


    Chorus:

    He will come to His temple to rule and to reign 

    And the nations will tremble and fear 

    But all of His people will say in that day, 

    “This is the Lord we have waited for Him 

    And, at last, He is here.”


    He is here, He is here

    Yeshua is here!!

    How blessed, how happy is the man,

    Who will not walk in the way of the ungodly

    How blessed, how happy is the man, 

    Who will not stand in the path of the sinful

    How blessed how happy is the man 

    Who will not sit in the seat of the scornful

    And it’s not hard to understand 

    Why God would bless that man


    Chorus:

    He delights in the law of the Lord (2x)

    Night and day, day and night,

    He meditates on all that’s right 

    And he desires nothing more

    His delight is in the law of the Lord


    How blessed, how happy are the ones 

    Who have their hope in a living Redeemer

    How blessed, how happy are the ones 

    Who will one day see the face of their Savior

    But how distressed shall be the ones 

    Who turn away from the love of a Father,

    Unless they come to understand, 

    God’s kingdom is at hand


    Chorus:

    And they delight in the law of the Lord (2x)

    Night and day, day and night

    They meditate on all that’s right

    And they desire nothing more

    Their delight is in the law of the Lord


    Oh, to be like a tree by the rivers of water, 

    Bearing it’s fruit in season

    Should my leaf never wither, 

    Should I flourish and prosper there’s a reason


    Chorus:

    I delight in the law of the Lord (2x)

    Night and day, day and night

    I meditate on all that’s right

    And I desire nothing more

    For my delight is in the law,


    Oh, our delight is in Your Law


    We delight in the law of the Lord (2x)

    Night and day, day and night

    We meditate on all that’s right

    And we desire nothing more

    Our delight is in the law of the Lord


    And we desire nothing more

    Our delight is in the law of the Lord

  • I CALL YOU FRIEND

    Risen Again


    Words & Music By Marty Goetz

    ©1992 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    I come here to proclaim He’s risen again, risen again

    And there’s no other name that’s given to men, given to men

    By which they might enter Heaven


    I ask you to believe we’re nearing the end, nearing the end

    I ask you to receive Him, and the help that He’ll lend in these last days

    The blessings He’ll send will surely amaze you


    I know it’s hard to suspend all your reasons

    But try to pretend He’s in all that you do

    And you may find it’s true, though you never knew


    Anything I know that’s in anyway good, surely He put in my head

    No matter where I go, if it’s the way that I should, It’s purely His foot that led

    I am nothing apart from Him.

    He’s my heart. He’s why I live. He’s all I’ll ever have to give


    And I rejoice to tell you He’s coming again, coming again

    Oh hear His voice He’ll tell you, “Be born again. I stand at the door. I want to enter. 

    Know that I’m for you.”


    He wants you just to surrender your will

    And to trust He’s a friend, He’ll do all He can do

    And He won’t be through ‘til all is new


    Anything I am that’s in any way right, was wrought by His skillful hand

    No matter who I am when I stand in His light, I know I will understand

    I am something when I’m with Him

    In my heart, now I can see. He’s all I ever dreamed would be


    And if I can’t admit He’s risen again, risen again

    Then I am to be pitied more than all men, more than all men

    For my hope is all then in vain


    But I know that He’s risen, Yes I know that He’s risen

    I know that He’s risen again

    I know that He’s risen again

    Always stay at my right hand and I will not be moved

    And I will pray that in Your sight I might stand approved

    You’ve given more than I could ask, how pleasant is the boundary

    Around the portion and the lot, I got the day You found me


    Chorus:


    You have shown me Your paths Oh Lord

    In Your presence is fullness of joy

    In Your right hand are pleasures

    In Your right hand are pleasures

    In Your right hand are pleasures

    Forevermore, pleasures forevermore


    Apart from You I’ve nothing good, Your counsel’s my delight

    You’re daily, truly guiding me, consulting in the night

    You drink the cup filled up with what, the life I led would merit

    And shed instead eternity into the cup I inherit


    (Chorus)


    Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices

    You're continually before me

    My eyes upon You, to You I run

    My blessed One


    (Chorus)


    I’ll adore and treasure You, forevermore

    I call you friend, that’s what you are

    All that I do I share with you

    I have no secrets, I have no need

    To keep them to myself, for I tell you to the end

    I call you my friend


    You call me master, and so I am

    All that I do you will do too

    Secret’s I’ll whisper, and what you hear

    You’ll shout aloud out to a world that’s near it’s end

    I call you my friend


    Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you

    Truly I say to you, you’ll have tribulation

    But have no fear dear one, be of good cheer

    Truly I have overcome, you too will overcome


    So, come my friend

    I know who you are

    Before you were I knew of you

    You’ve so many secrets, you’ve so many needs

    Don’t keep them to yourself, no one to help you in the end.


    Just call my name, I’m always the same

    I search for all who will claim the love I send

    So I can call them friend

    Say, can I call you my friend?

    Words & Music By Marty Goetz

    Come, behold the works of The Lord

    How He has wrought the desolation

    How He has brought His early help

    The Lord of Hosts is with us

    The God of Jacob is our refuge

    When the nations rage and all the kingdoms fall

    He says I Am, I Am, I Am all


    And there’s a river who’s streams make glad the city of God

    They flow to His Holy habitation

    They flow to the home of the Most High

    The Lord of Hosts is with us

    The God of Jacob is our refuge

    He breaks the bow, he shatters the spear

    And says I Am, I Am, I Am here!


    So we will not fear 

    Though the worlds should change

    Though the waters roar

    Though the mountains shake and tremble

    For He’s a present help in trouble, in trouble


    Be still and know that I am God

    I Am exalted in the nations

    I Am exalted in the earth

    The Lord of Hosts is with us

    The God of Jacob is our refuge

    To the ends of the earth He causes wars to cease and says

    I Am, I Am, I Am peace

    He says I Am, I Am, I Am peace

    Merciful and gracious, so slow to anger

    In pity plenteous, Oh the Lord is so good


    He’ll not always chide us, nor let His anger or wrath abide upon us

    Oh the Lord is so good


    He is not rewarding me according to my iniquity

    Nor treating me after my sin

    No I’ll enter into His throne room with boldness

    When I’ve a hunger for His forgiveness

    Oh the Lord is so good


    He is not rewarding me according to my iniquity

    But if I happen to sin, He’ll bid me come into

    His throne room with kindness

    For my Intercessor is the gentle Jesus

    Who delivers us for our good


    So sing hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

    To the Lord, the Lord is so good

    Sacrifice, offering You do not desire

    But You’ve given me an open ear

    When I’m cold as ice and bring to You things burnt with fire

    You say, “Son keep your spirit clear, that’s all that I require.”


    Oh Holy One I delight to do Your will

    On Your Name I now look and with awe I now start

    And lo I come, please write with sacred quill

    My name in Your Book and Your Law in my heart


    Faithfulness, Mercy and Love You multiply

    And there’s no one who compares with You

    As for me I was poor and needy, but I know You heard my cry

    When You drew me from the pit so I could sit with You on high


    Oh Holy One, I delight to do Your will

    When You came I forsook all my need to be smart

    And lo, I come give me wisdom and fill my name in Your Book and Your Law in my heart


    You put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God

    Many will see and many will fear

    And men with ears to hear will know they must put their trust in The Lord


    Well sons of serpents, hypocrites, Pharisees and Scribes

    I’m afraid I’ve behaved like all of you

    But a serpent raised upon a pole healed the twelve tribes

    And a Son raised upon a cross is the healing of our lives


    O Holy One, I delight to do Your will

    All our shame Jesus took, Now we’re near not far apart

    And lo I come knowing no peace until my name’s in Your book

    And Your Law’s in my heart


    And lo I come holding fast and holding still

    My name in Your book and Your love in my heart

    (Verse 1)

    These are periled times we live in, trouble everywhere

    Weary hearts will often give in to this world’s despair

    But high and over all, our Father knows our every care

    And in His Book, if you will look, you’ll find His promise there


    (Chorus)

    He who trusts in the Lord 

    Mercy shall surround him 

    He who trusts in the Lord 

    Mercy shall surround him 

    Be glad in the Lord and rejoice 

    You upright in heart, lift up your voice 

    For great is His mercy toward, all who trust in the Lord


    (Verse 2)

    Soon will be the time when we will see the Holy One

    Oh how sweet to know that He’ll complete what He’s begun

    And blessed is the man who stands forgiven in God’s son

    And blessed are they who in that day will hear Him say, “Well done”


    (Chorus)


    (Bridge)

    Gracious is He and slow to anger

    His loving kindness has no end

    With love to embrace both friend and stranger

    He’s reaching out to one and all, who upon His name will call


    (Chorus)

    He who trusts in the Lord (she who trusts in the Lord)

    Mercy shall surround him (mercy shall surround her)

    He who trusts in the Lord (she who trusts in the Lord)

    Mercy shall surround him (mercy shall surround her)

    Be glad in the Lord and rejoice (Be glad in the Lord and rejoice)

    You upright in heart, lift up your voice 

    For great is His mercy toward, all who trust in the Lord


    Mercy is His reward

    This Poor Man Cries

    (Psalm 34)


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 1984 Singin’ In the Reign Music ASCAP


    (Verse 1)

    The Lord On High is very near

    To all who call on Him

    This poor man cries and He hears

    And delivers him from all his fears


    (Verse 2)

    For the Lord is nigh to them that fear Him

    The contrite will have light never dim

    The righteous cry and He hears

    And delivers them from all their fears


    (Chorus)

    “Gad-lu l’Adonai ee’ti,

    oon’ ram’ma sh’mo yach-dau”

    I will bless Him all my days

    His praise shall continually be in my mouth


    (Verse 3)

    To the King I sing with pride

    And the humble hear

    And the sad, are glad in Him

    His angels fly ‘round those near

    If you ever listen close you might hear

    You just might hear


    (Chorus)


    (Verse 4)

    He brings good things so I know

    He’s always here

    Never denied I’m supplied by Him

    For He has his eyes on those He holds dear

    And He delivers them from every fear, from every fear

    This Poor Man Cries, and He hears

    And delivers him from all his fears, from all his fears.

    (Verse 1)

    Whom shall I fear, The Lord is my light

    Under his wings, I find my comfort all through the night


    (Verse 2)

    I wait for you, when darkness surrounds

    You are my strength, I’ll always sing of your love come down


    (Pre-Chorus)

    If God is for us, whom then will we have to fear

    If God is for us, then nothing can stand against us


    (Chorus) 

    No angels, nor demons

    Not present past or future

    No height or depth,

    Yes I’m convinced

    No powers, no rulers

    And nothing in creation

    Can separate us from his love


    (Verse 3)

    So I will not fear, the battle is won

    In all these things, you’ve conquered death by your risen son


    (Pre-Chorus & Chorus)


    (Bridge)

    For I’m convinced, yes I’m convinced

    That we are more than conquerors, 

    we are more than conquerors


    For I’m convinced, yes I’m convinced 

    That we are more than conquerors, 

    we are more than conquerors


    (Pre-Chorus & Chorus)

    Whom shall I fear, whom shall I fear…

    Faithfully loving Your own

    More Than The Watchman (Psalm 130)


    Words & Music By Marty Goetz © 1984 Singin’ In the Reign Music ASCAP


    (Verse 1)

    Did I leave you? Did you leave me?

    One of us wandered away

    But now I need you to answer my plea

    Though I don’t know what I’m askin’

    And I know even less what I expect you to say, but...


    (Chorus)

    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I wait for you, I wait for you


    (Verse 2)

    By now it’s quite clear, I don’t know wrong from right

    And on goodness I’m makin’ no claim

    But when you are here and we struggle all night

    All I know is I can’t let you go ‘til you bless me

    And change my name, and...


    (Chorus)

    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I wait for you, my soul waits for you


    (Bridge)

    I miss you so much, I don’t know what to do

    Don’t you know that I love you, must I show you too

    Here is my mind, for you to read

    All I need is your touch, only one, only one


    (Verse 3)

    For you’re the only one from whom I need

    Forgiveness just one more time

    You’re the only one who had to bleed

    For my lack of understanding, take me back

    Take my hand in your way so sublime, for...


    (Chorus)

    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I’m blinkin at the sun, I’m starin’ at the moon!

    I wait for you, please come for me soon!


     


    Ruth’s Song (Where You Go I Will Go)


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz & Misha

    © 2017 Singin’ in the Reign Music/Misha Goetz Music ASCAP


    (Verse 1)

    All my life, I have wondered

    Wondered where I might belong

    Feeling lost, like a stranger

    Wandering far all on my own


    (Verse 2)

    Without a home. Without a people

    Without a hope, without a prayer

    Without a way, that I could follow

    Then I turned, and you were there


    (Chorus)

    Where you go, I will go

    Where you stay, I will stay forever

    Where you lead, I will follow

    So I can know the one you know


    (Verse 3)

    Under his wings, you found a shelter

    You have no fear, you have no shame

    And when you call, he seems to answer

    He even seems to know your name


    (Chorus)


    (Bridge)

    Then somehow should I find his favor

    I won’t look back on all I’ve known 

    Your people then will be my people

    And Your God my God alone


    (Chorus)


    Where you go, I will go

    And you know I will never leave you

    Not even death, will ever part us

    Now that I know the one you know

    I will go now, where you go

    (Verse 1)

    To you I give my life, 

    not just the parts I want to

    To you I sacrifice, 

    these dreams that I hold on to


    (Chorus)

    Your thoughts are higher than mine

    Your words are deeper than mine

    Your love is stronger than mine

    This is no sacrifice

    Here's my life


    (Verse 2)

    To you I give the gifts

    Your love has given me

    How can I hoard the treasures 

    that you've designed for free?


    (Chorus)


    (Verse 3)

    To you I give my future

    As long as it may last

    To you I give my present

    To you I give my past


    (Chorus)


     


    A Father’s Song (For Misha)


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz 

    © 2017 Singin’ in the Reign Music ASCAP


    Since the day that you were born and I became your daddy

    I hoped someday to write for you a song…

    And tho’ you know I love you so that song was never written

    And in a moment all these many years have come and gone


    So day by day I stood amazed at the girl you were becoming

    So full of life, so sweet, so strong, so smart…

    And your dear ole’ dad he never had one single day of trouble

    With a child who was a joy right from the start…


    Still I wish I were a Daddy who could ‘dance with Cinderella’

    And I pray somehow you know--- ‘I hope you dance!’

    For a father finds his pleasure in his baby’s laughin’ eyes

    And in her playful cries, when she’s kissed by butterflies


    Every father wants to be a hero to his daughter

    He’ll do anything to show her that he cares

    But often best that he can do is put some food upon her table

    Tuck her in and help her say her prayers…


    And somehow now you stand before me such a beautiful young woman

    But still inside my heart there is a fear…

    That I never found a way to praise the ‘bestest daughter ever!’

    (So) though I know I’m overdue, I wrote this song for you…


    Your hand today I give away to the one you’ll call your husband

    He’s a good man and I know he’ll love you well

    (Oh) But more than that I give you to your ‘Daddy who’s in Heaven’

    For He’s the one you’re trusting, on this day you say, “I do.”


    And one thing I’m certain of,

    Only He could have more love…

    Than this Daddy has…for you.


     


    House At Pooh Corner


    Words & Music by Kenny Loggins

    © 2017 Universal Music Publishing Group


    Christopher Robin and I walked along

    Under branches lit up by the moon

    Posing our questions to owl and Eeyore

    As our days disappeared all too soon


    But I've wandered much further today than I should

    And I can't seem to find my way back to the wood


    So help me if you can I've got to get

    Back to the house at Pooh corner by one

    You'd be surprised there's so much to be done

    Count all the bees in the hive

    Chase all the clouds from the sky

    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh


    Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do

    Got a honey jar stuck on his nose

    He came to me asking help and advice

    And from here no one knows where he goes


    So I sent him to ask of the owl if he's there

    How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear


    So help me If you can I've got to get

    Back to the house at Pooh corner by one

    You'd be surprised there's so much to be done

    Count all the bees in the hive

    Chase all the clouds from the sky


    Back to the days of Christopher Robin

    Back to the ways of Christopher Robin

    Back to the ways of Pooh

    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    (In Harmony)

    And we being many are one body in Messiah

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    (Both verses sung together)

    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child

    This is the land of Milk and Honey

    This is the land of sun and song and

    This is a world of good and plenty

    Humble and proud and young and strong and

    This is the place where the hopes of the homeless

    and the dreams of the lost combine

    This is the land that heaven blessed and

    This lovely land is mine


    What if the earth is dry and barren

    What if the morning sun is mean to us for

    This is a state of mind we live in

    We want it green and so it's green to us for

    When you have wonderful plans for tomorrow

    Somehow even today looks fine so

    What if it's rock and dust and sand,

    This lovely land is mine


    This is the place where the hopes of the homeless

    and the dreams of the lost combine

    This is the land that heaven blessed and

    This lovely land is mine

    This lovely land is mine

    Where you go, I will go

    Where you stay, I will stay forever

    Where you lead, I will follow

    So I can know the one you know

    You have no fear, you have no shame

    And when you call, he seems to answer

    He even seems to know your name

    If God is for us, then nothing can stand against us


    (Chorus) 

    No angels, nor demons

    Not present past or future

    No height or depth,

    Yes I’m convinced

    No powers, no rulers

    And nothing in creation

    Can separate us from his love


    (Verse 3)

    So I will not fear, the battle is won

    In all these things, you’ve conquered death by your risen son


    (Pre-Chorus & Chorus)


    (Bridge)

    For I’m convinced, yes I’m convinced

    That we are more than conquerors, 

    we are more than conquerors


    For I’m convinced, yes I’m convinced 

    That we are more than conquerors, 

    we are more than conquerors


    (Pre-Chorus & Chorus)

    x2


    Whom shall I fear, whom shall I fear…

    “Father forgive them they know not what they do.”

    Said the one they called,

    ‘King of the Jews’

    “Truly this was the Son of God!”

    Said the Roman soldier

    Marveling at the way He died that day.........

    The Love of God, the Love of God

    Can you see on that tree, the Love of God?


    The Love of God, the Love of God

    There for you, there for me, the Love of God.


    He bleeds for you, He pleads for you who are needy

    To let Him be

    The Love of God

    The Love of God

    Can you see on that tree, the Love of God?


    He gave all for you

    Hear Him call to you who are weary

    “Come to Me....”

    The Love of God......


    (instrumental break)


    He gave all for you

    Hear Him call to you who are weary

    “Come to Me.....”


    The Love of God, the Love of God

    Can you see on that tree the Love of God

    There for you, there for me

    The Love of God

    Here for you, here for me, here for free


    Jesus He’s the Love of God…..

    There's a place for us

    Somewhere a place for us

    Peace and quiet and open air

    Wait for us

    Somewhere


    There's a time for us

    Some day a time for us

    Time together

    With time to spare

    Time to learn

    Time to care

    Someday


    Somewhere, We'll find a new way of living

    We'll find a way of forgiving

    Somewhere

    There's a place for us

    A time and place for us

    Hold my hand

    And we're halfway there

    Hold my hand

    And I'll take you there

    Somehow

    Someday

    Somewhere

    He maketh me to lie down in green pastures

    He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake


    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

    I will fear no evil

    For Thou art with me

    Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me


    Thou preparest a table for me in the presence of mine enemies

    Thou anointest my head with oil

    My cup runneth over


    Surely goodness and mercy

    Shall follow me all the days of my life

    And I will dwell in the house of The Lord

    Prince of Peace

    Grandpa studied Torah from the time he was a boy

    And until the day he passed away it was just his highest joy

    And sometimes I think about what Grandpa would have said

    Had he heard how I interpreted these words I’m sure he read


    Chorus:

    Unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given

    And the increase of His peace shall have no end

    And His name is Wonderful, Counselor, Almighty G-d

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace

    Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace


    As a young man I would meet some people who would claim

    The Prince of Peace already came, Y’shua was His name

    But that is not what I’d been taught, I thought “How could that be?”

    ‘Til one day by grace He found a place for His peace to reign in me

    A Jew Born Anew


    Words & Music By Marty Goetz

    Singin’ in the Reign Music

    I had a Bar Mitzvah when I was thirteen

    Greatest Bar Mitzvah that you’ve ever seen.

    The temple on the corner of Mayfield and Lee

    Was filled with my friends and my family

    All of them as proud can be,

    With catering far as the eye could see,

    Complete with a chopped liver statue of me.


    Now they ask me how I can go so wrong

    And why all of a sudden I’m singing this song,

    They say “Son you’re deserting your fathers of old,

    So why don’t you just come back to the fold,

    You’re such a nice boy or weren’t you told

    That when you were born they broke the mold

    So whaddya need with this stuff ya been sold?”


    But it’s a far, far better thing that I do, 

    Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true

    That Yeshua is God’s only son

    Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few

    But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,

    Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew


    So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya,

    Could come to die for a schmo like I was,

    Just so I could win the prize

    and be with my Messiah in the skies!


    They say on Bar Mitzvah day I became a man,

    I’ve tried to live that way, done the best that I can,


    But I’ve been worried since way back when

    ‘Cause I’ve never done anything great since then,

    And though I could live ‘til a hundred and ten

    And never have need of a fountain pen,

    I might never succeed in the sight of men,

    And they won’t let me get Bar Mitzvahed again!


    But it’s a far, far better thing that I do, 

    Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true

    That Yeshua is God’s only son

    Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few

    But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,

    Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew


    So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya’,

    Could come to die for a real schlemiel

    When I couldn’t tell you were the long awaited Holy One of Israel!


    So all of you who don’t know Yeshua, let me introduce Him to ya’.

    He’s the blessed Messiah, the Lion of Judah

    Who wants to do to ya what He did to me!

    He came to live in a schlep like I was

    Yep, it’s true on Christmas morn,

    The truest Jew that ever was, was born!


    Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai,.............

    ..........that’s no lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie,

    a Jew Born Anew Am I!!!!!!!!!!

    “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” hear Yeshua cry,

    “How I longed to gather you to Me!”

    “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem,” Messiah wept for you

    So should we not be weeping too?


    For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent

    For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace

    For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim

    I will not rest, I will not rest


    I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem

    They shall never hold their peace

    Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord

    Call upon the Lord for Zion’s sake


    I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem

    They shall never hold their peace 

    Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord, take no rest, 

    Give Him no rest, till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth

    A praise in the earth


    For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent

    For Zion’s sake, I’ll not hold my peace

    For Zion’s sake, for Y’rushalayim

    I will not rest

    I will not rest

    I will not rest

    I will not rest

    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    (In Harmony)

    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    (Both verses sung together)

    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    I call you friend, that’s what you are

    All that I do I share with you

    I have no secrets, I have no need

    To keep them to myself, for I tell you to the end

    I call you my friend


    You call me master, and so I am

    All that I do you will do too

    Secret’s I’ll whisper, and what you hear

    You’ll shout aloud out to a world that’s near it’s end

    I call you my friend


    Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you

    Truly I say to you, you’ll have tribulation

    But have no fear dear one, be of good cheer

    Truly I have overcome, you too will overcome


    So, come my friend

    I know who you are

    Before you were I knew of you

    You’ve so many secrets, you’ve so many needs

    Don’t keep them to yourself, no one to help you in the end.


    Just call my name, I’m always the same

    I search for all who will claim the love I send

    So I can call them friend

    Say, can I call you my friend?


     


    Chanukah


    Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz

    ©1997 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    Make my life Your temple

    L-rd at this season start

    To pull down every idol I have raised up in my heart


    Chorus:

    On this Chanukah

    On this Feast of Dedication

    I dedicate myself to You


    Take my defiled altar

    Come and cleanse and come repair

    So every time I falter I can run to meet you there


    Chorus


    Bridge:

    And with every candle on the menorah

    That illuminates the night

    Comes a prayer You’d kindle

    In me Y’shua

    A desire for Your fire, for Your light


    Make of my mortal body

    A house worthy of Your name

    Rid me of what’s ungodly and every hidden thing of shame


    Chorus to Bridge


    Take my supply of oil

    Not enough to burn long I fear

    But, oh how I pray I may one day say “A great miracle happened here!”

    Let Us Run


    Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz

    Singin’ In The Reign Music © 1996


    Can you see how we are surrounded

    By so great a cloud of witnesses

    Those who paid the price

    The supreme sacrifice

    Those of whom this world was not worthy


    Chorus:

    Let us run, run, run the race with endurance

    Laying aside every weight

    Casting aside every sin

    Let us run, run, fixing our eyes on the Son

    Looking to Him, finishing what we’ve begun

    Let us run!


    And you can see now we are entrusted

    With continuing what others started

    They have passed the baton

    Straight and fast, til we’ve won

    We will run to Him who is Holy


    Chorus:

    So let us run........


    Bridge:


    Oh and yes, there are some who have stumbled, fallen

    G-d only knows, I am one

    Still I press toward the goal

    For the L-rd who’s callin’ me

    He’s gone before, He’s my reward

    When I am done, let us run!!

    Here is my mind for you to read

    All I need is your touch, only one, only one


    For you’re the only one from whom I need

    Forgiveness just one more time

    You’re the only one who had to bleed

    For my lack of understanding, take me back

    Take my hand in your way so sublime, for.....


    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I’m blinkin at the sun, I’m starin’ at the moon!

    I wait for you, please come for me soon!

    Blessed Is The Man


    (Psalm 112)

    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 1999 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    Now and for always it is written

    Penned by the loving hand of G-d

    My people perish without vision, they go astray

    And when a man makes it his mission

    To go where others have not trod

    Into the valley of decision to show the way

    Of Him they’ll say


    Chorus:

    They’ll say ,“Hallelujah! Blessed is the man with a vision

    Hallelujah! One who delights in G-d’s Word

    Hallelujah! He is a lover of Jesus

    Hallelujah! Blessed is the man who fears the L-rd”


    And in the midst of tribulation

    He will stand steadfast and secure

    Gracious is he who shows compassion in all his ways

    And when his hands are filled with riches

    They’re still extended to the poor

    This one will bless his generation all of his days

    And they will say, they’ll say


    (Chorus)


    And in a world turned cold & heartless

    And at a time we’ve lost our way

    He is a beacon in the darkness

    And all who hear of Him will say, they’ll say


    (Chorus)


    Blessed is the man who fears the L-rd!

    © 1985 Lion Cub Music - Singin’ in the Reign Music - Cross Purpose Music / ASCAP


    Verse: Standing at my station

    Camped upon the battleground

    Though I can’t see my enemy

    I know that he is all around

    So many voices speakin’

    Tellin’ me I’m wrong, could they be right?

    I have the choice to weaken

    Or to stand up strong and fight

    But the only defense that I can raise

    Is liftin’ up an anthem of Your praise


    Chorus: O L-rd, Your loving kindness is everlasting

    That’s why I sing

    O L-rd Your loving kindness endures forever

    And You are able to deliver me

    Deliver me!


    Verse: L-rd in my confusion all my strength is givin’ in

    My adversary’s everywhere

    It seems that there’s no way to win

    Then, I hear Your voice all through me

    Tellin’ me this battles Yours, not mine

    I have no choice left to me, but to yield to Your design

    As You take it from my hands what can I do

    But lift them up in sacrifice to You?


    (Chorus)


    Bridge: And now the hope of Your salvation

    Is burnin’ in me like a flame

    I come before You now rejoicing

    And with this song of deliverance proclaim


    Chorus: O L-rd, Your loving kindness is everlasting

    And so I’ll sing

    My L-rd Your loving kindness endures forever

    And You are able to deliver me

    Forever able to deliver me!

    Lately I wonder as time hurries on

    What have I done with the days come and gone?

    And I remember how once I was drawn

    Into Your sanctuary


    When did I wander so far away?

    How did I get here? Why did I stray?

    And can I ever find my way

    Back to Your sanctuary?


    Nothing have I on earth but You

    No one but You in heaven

    So why do I continue to do everything else

    But come to You?


    All of my folly I fin’lly see

    I’ve nowhere to hide, I’ve no place to flee

    If I ran to you, would you run to me

    Out from Your sanctuary?


    Nothing have I on earth but You

    No one but You in heaven

    So why would I continue to do anything else

    But come to You?


    I will remember what You did for me

    Climbing that hill to die on that tree

    There I will go and bend my knee

    There I’ll find sanctuary

    Oh I’ll give You thanks 

    For Your sanctuary

    Chorus:

    Unless it is the L-rd who builds the house

    They labor in vain who build it

    Unless it is the L-rd who guards the city

    The watchmen watch in vain


    Vain are we to rise up early and to stay up late

    To toil and labor greatly for our daily bread

    Vain are we to worry that our souls He will not keep

    He gives His loved ones sleep

    For He Himself has said


    (Chorus)


    Foolishly we try to build our houses on the sand

    They cannot withstand the storms we must endure

    Wise are we when we’ve been found to build on solid ground

    Though rain & wind may pound

    We’ll still stand secure


    (Instrumental)


    Vain am I and foolish and embarrassed to admit

    I’ve often almost quit, yet on and on I go

    And though I’m slow of step

    And though my heart is filled with fears

    Still after all these years

    This one thing I know


    (Chorus)

    The watchmen watch in vain

    Unless it is the L-rd, Unless it is the L-rd

    Blessed are the poor in spirit

    For theirs is the kingdom of heaven

    Blessed are those who mourn, for comfort shall be theirs

    Blessed are the gentle, they shall inherit the earth

    Blessed, blessed are they, blessed are they


    Blessed are those who hunger

    Blessed are those who thirst

    Those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, surely shall be filled

    Blessed are the merciful, they shall obtain mercy

    Blessed, blessed are they


    Truly I say, you are the salt of the earth

    Oh, so don’t you lose your savor

    Truly I say you are the light of the world

    So let your light shine before men

    That they may glorify your Father


    And the people were astonished at His teaching, for He taught them not as their scribes did, but as one having authority!


    Blessed are the pure in heart, they shall see G-d

    And blessed are the peacemakers

    They shall be called the sons of G-d

    And you who suffer for My name’s sake

    Yours is the kingdom of Heaven

    Blessed, blessed are you, blessed are you

    Blessed are you

     Breathe On Me

    The flame in my heart used to blaze with delight

    But like sparks that rise into the skies, it vanished in the night

    Now I long to once again

    Burn for You as I did then

    But to even try there’s something I must ask of You

    I need You to...


    Breathe on me, breathe on me 

    It’s been so long since the fire within

    Burned bright and strong 

    Breathe on me, breathe on me 

    Like a gentle breeze, L-rd I ask You please

    To tenderly breathe on me


    Blow, Spirit, blow

    Come & fill this weary soul

    In Your mercy send a holy wind and ‘til You do

    I’ll wait for You to


    Breathe on me, breathe on me

    It’s been so long since the fire within

    Burned bright and strong

    Breathe on me, breathe on me 

    Like a gentle breeze, L-rd I ask You please

    Won’t You tenderly, breathe on me


    It isn’t that I’ve lost my desire

    It’s just that what once was a fire has dwindled again

    And it needs to be kindled again, so


    Breathe on me, breathe on me

    It’s been so long since the fire within

    Burned bright and strong

    Breathe on me, breathe on me 

    Deep inside I know hiding embers glow

    They could grow into a flame for all to see

    If You’d only, if You’d only, if You’d only

    Breathe on Me

    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me

    He sent me to preach good news to the poor

    And to bind up the broken in heart

    To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound


    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me

    He sent me to preach the year of His grace 

    And that vengeance belongs to our God

    And to comfort all those who mourn and who grieve, all those who grieve


    To give them beauty for ashes for mourning the oil of joy

    And for the spirit of sorrow the garment of praise

    And they will be called the trees of righteousness

    Planted by God’s own hand that He may be glorified


    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord)

    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And my soul shall exult in my God)

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me


    He sent me to preach good news to the poor and to bind up the broken in heart

    To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound

    And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord and my soul shall exult in my God

    For He’s clothed me with garments of His salvation 

    And wrapped me with robes of His righteousness


    Yes upon me is the Spirit of the Lord, Upon me is the Spirit of the Lord

    He’s anointed me with the Spirit of the Lord


     


    Who Has Believed


    (Isaiah 53)

    Words & Music By Marty & Jennifer Goetz

    © 1994 Singin in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    Who has believed our report?

    To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?

    He grew up among us a tender shoot

    A root from dry ground, in Him no beauty we found


    Scorned and rejected by men

    A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief

    Like one from whom men hide their faces

    Not esteemed but denied, not desired but despised


    (Chorus)

    He was wounded for our transgressions

    He was bruised for our iniquities

    The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed


    Like a sheep before shearers is silent

    As a lamb led to slaughter He said not a word

    Assigned a grave with the wicked

    Though no evil He’d done, no deceit was on His tongue


    (Chorus)

    He was wounded for our transgressions

    He was bruised for our iniquities

    The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed


    All we like sheep have gone astray

    Turned everyone to his own way

    Our iniquities on Him were laid

    Surely He has born our griefs and our sorrows

    He has born our griefs and our sorrows


    (Chorus)

    He was wounded for our transgressions

    He was bruised for our iniquities

    The chastisement for our peace fell on Him and by His stripes we are healed

    These are periled times we live in, trouble everywhere

    Weary hearts will often give in to this world’s despair

    But high and over all, our Father knows our every care

    And in His Book, if you will look, you’ll find His promise there


    (Chorus)

    He who trusts in the Lord

    Mercy shall surround him

    He who trusts in the Lord

    Mercy shall surround him

    Be glad in the Lord and rejoice

    You upright in heart, lift up your voice

    For great is His mercy toward all who trust in the Lord


    Soon will be the time when we will see the Holy One

    Oh how sweet to know that He’ll complete what He’s begun

    And blessed is the man who stands forgiven in God’s son

    And blessed are they who in that day will hear Him say, “Well done”


    (Chorus)


    Gracious is He and slow to anger

    His loving kindness has no end

    With love to embrace both friend and stranger

    Reaching out to one and all, who upon His name will call


    (Chorus)


    Mercy is His reward

    For all who trust, for the pure and just 

    Who put their trust in the Lord

    For all who trust for the pure and just who put their trust in the Lord

    Hineni (Here Am I)


    (Isaiah 6; Matthew 28)

    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 1994 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    In the temple long ago the prophet saw The Lord high and lifted up

    Angels all around crying “Holy Holy Holy, Holy is The Lord, the earth is full Glory”

    And a voice said “Who will go for us?” and it cried “Whom shall I send?”

    And the house was filled with smoke at the voice of Him who spoke

    That voice that makes the heavens rend


    And the prophet said “Hineni”, and the prophet said “Here am I”

    You could hear Him say “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me”


    On a mountain far away the disciples saw The Lord, who had died and been raised up

    They worshipped and bowed down as He told them 

    “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given unto Me

    So go! Make disciples of all nations, beginning in Jerusalem. And Lo, I am always with you, until this age is through, all I’ve taught you, you teach them.”


    The disciples said “Hineni,” the disciples said “Here am I”

    With their lives they said “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me.”


    But I say “Woe is me. I’m undone by what I’ve heard

    For I’m a man unclean in thought and word. 

    But as for me,

    I need the fire of your glory to purge my lips to tell Your story, My Lord.”


    May you hear me say “Hineni”, may you hear me say “Here am I”

    Adonai I cry, “Hineni, Hineni, Hineni. Here am I, send me”


     


    Psalm 23

    The Lord is my shepherd

    I shall not want

    He maketh me to lie down in green pastures

    He leadeth me by the still waters

    He restoreth my soul

    He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His Name’s sake


    Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death

    I will fear no evil

    For Thou art with me

    Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me


    Thou preparest a table for me in the presence of mine enemies

    Thou anointest my head with oil

    My cup runneth over


    Surely goodness and mercy

    Shall follow me all the days of my life

    And I will dwell in the house of The Lord

    Forever and ever

    Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord

    Call upon the Lord for Zion’s sake


    I’ve set watchmen on your walls, O Jerusalem

    They shall never hold their peace 

    Day or night, all you who call upon the Lord, take no rest, 

    Give Him no rest, till He makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth

    A praise in the earth


    For Zion’s sake, I will not keep silent

    Hear me, O Lord, won’t You enlighten my eyes that I may see?

    Hear me, O Lord

    Must I hear my enemy say he has triumphed over me?

    Before, when I went astray, I learned your way

    The Lord On High is very near

    To all who call on Him

    This poor man cries and He hears

    And delivers him from all his fears


    For the Lord is nigh to those who fear Him

    The contrite will have light never dim

    The righteous cry and He hears

    And delivers them from all their fears


    “Gad-lu l’Adonai ee’ti,

    oon’ ram’ma sh’mo yach-dau”

    I will bless Him all my days

    His praise shall continually be in my mouth


    To the King I sing with pride

    And the humble hear

    And the sad, are glad in Him

    His angels fly ‘round those near

    If you ever listen close you might hear

    You just might hear......


    “Gad-lu l’Adonai ee-ti

    oon’ ram’ma sh’mo yach-dau”

    I will bless Him all my days

    His praise shall continually be in my mouth


    He brings good things so I know

    He’s always here

    Never denied I’m supplied by Him

    For He  has eyes on those He holds dear

    And delivers them from every fear, from every fear

    This Poor Man Cries and He hears

    And delivers him from all his fears, from all his fears!

    Sacrifice, offering You do not desire

    But You’ve given me an open ear

    When I’m cold as ice and bring to You things burnt with fire

    You say, “Son keep your spirit clear, that’s all that I require.”


    Oh Holy One I delight to do Your will

    On Your Name I now look and with awe I now start

    And lo I come, please write with sacred quill

    My name in Your Book and Your Law in my heart


    Faithfulness, Mercy and Love You multiply

    And there’s no one who compares with You

    As for me I was poor and needy, but I know You heard my cry

    When You drew me from the pit so I could sit with You on high


    Oh Holy One, I delight to do Your will

    When You came I forsook all my need to be smart

    And lo, I come give me wisdom and fill my name in Your Book and Your Law in my heart


    You put a new song in my mouth, a song of praise to our God

    Many will see and many will fear

    And men with ears to hear will know they must put their trust in The Lord


    Well sons of serpents, hypocrites, Pharisees and Scribes

    I’m afraid I’ve behaved like all of you

    But a serpent raised upon a pole healed the twelve tribes

    And a Son raised upon a cross is the healing of our lives


    O Holy One, I delight to do Your will

    All our shame Jesus took, Now we’re near not far apart

    And lo I come knowing no peace until my name’s in Your book

    And Your Law’s in my heart


    And lo I come holding fast and holding still

    My name in Your book and Your love in my heart

    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    (In Harmony)

    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    (Both verses sung together)

    We are His Bride, taken from His side

    When blood and water fell from the broken heart of Israel

    See the Lord provide the precious Lamb who died

    The great “I Am”” who cried “Eli, Eli, Lama Azavtani,

    Abba, El Shaddai, to God I give my life”


    And we being many are one body in Christ, in Christ

    And everyone members of one another

    Loving each other, with God as our Father

    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child


    Who loves us as a mother loves her newborn child

    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me

    He sent me to preach good news to the poor

    And to bind up the broken in heart

    To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound


    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, The Spirit of the Lord is upon me

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me

    He sent me to preach the year of His grace 

    And that vengeance belongs to our God

    And to comfort all those who mourn and who grieve, all those who grieve


    To give them beauty for ashes for mourning the oil of joy

    And for the spirit of sorrow the garment of praise

    And they will be called the trees of righteousness

    Planted by God’s own hand that He may be glorified


    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord)

    The Spirit of the Lord is upon me (And my soul shall exult in my God)

    For the Lord has anointed me, yes the Lord has anointed me


    He sent me to preach good news to the poor and to bind up the broken in heart

    To proclaim His freedom to all who are bound, all who are bound

    And I will greatly rejoice in the Lord and my soul shall exult in my God

    For He’s clothed me with garments of His salvation 

    And wrapped me with robes of His righteousness


    Yes upon me is the Spirit of the Lord, Upon me is the Spirit of the Lord

    He’s anointed me with the Spirit of the Lord


    A Jew Born Anew

    I had a Bar Mitzvah when I was thirteen

    Greatest Bar Mitzvah that you’ve ever seen.

    The temple on the corner of Mayfield and Lee

    Was filled with my friends and my family

    All of them as proud can be,

    With catering far as the eye could see,

    Complete with a chopped liver statue of me.


    Now they ask me how I can go so wrong

    And why all of a sudden I’m singing this song,

    They say “Son you’re deserting your fathers of old,

    So why don’t you just come back to the fold,

    You’re such a nice boy or weren’t you told

    That when you were born they broke the mold

    So whaddya need with this stuff ya been sold?”


    But it’s a far, far better thing that I do, 

    Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true

    That Yeshua is God’s only son

    Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few

    But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,

    Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew


    So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya,

    Could come to die for a schmo like I was,

    Just so I could win the prize

    and be with my Messiah in the skies!


    They say on Bar Mitzvah day I became a man,

    I’ve tried to live that way, done the best that I can,


    But I’ve been worried since way back when

    ‘Cause I’ve never done anything great since then,

    And though I could live ‘til a hundred and ten

    And never have need of a fountain pen,

    I might never succeed in the sight of men,

    And they won’t let me get Bar Mitzvahed again!


    But it’s a far, far better thing that I do, 

    Than I have ever done, when I believed what they said was true

    That Yeshua is God’s only son

    Well I’ve done many things and I don’t do a few

    But this one thing I do makes Me a Jew Born Anew,

    Yes, through and through I’m a Jew Born Anew


    So Hallelujah to Yeshua from a Jew who never knew ya’,

    Could come to die for a real schlemiel

    When I couldn’t tell you were the long awaited Holy One of Israel!


    So all of you who don’t know Yeshua, let me introduce Him to ya’.

    He’s the blessed Messiah, the Lion of Judah

    Who wants to do to ya what He did to me!

    He came to live in a schlep like I was

    Yep, it’s true on Christmas morn,

    The truest Jew that ever was, was born!


    Lai, lai, lai, lai, lai,.............

    ..........that’s no lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie,

    a Jew Born Anew Am I!!!!!!!!!!


    Thank You, Jesus

    First you showed me the sky, and a bird flyin’ high

    Then a cross of shinin’ white

    Then the wind it blew, and it filled me with You

    And made my soul take flight


    Now you’re everywhere, and you prove that you care

    About everything I do

    You take people I know, and you use them to show

    Your love for me is true


    Thank you, Jesus

    Thank you, Jesus

    You wait inside for me

    Thank you, Jesus

    Praise you, Jesus

    You want to see me free


    See me free, from all my selfish desires

    Set my mind on a goal that is higher

    Make my heart free from guilt, free from shame

    Take my life, let it be in the glory of your name


    I don’t do all the good, that I know I should

    Sometimes my darkness hides your light

    Still your grace you bestow

    ‘Cuz you want me to know, in my weakness is your might

    Yes in my weakness is your might


    Thank you, Jesus

    Thank you, Jesus

    You wait inside for me

    Thank you, Jesus

    Praise you, Jesus

    You want to see me free

    You want to see me free

    Light Is Sown For The Righteous

    Light is sown for the righteous,

    Joy is known by the upright in heart

    Peace is grown and love is planted by those who cry;

    Now they’re weepin’ but how they’re reapin’

    When angels come to gather

    And bring them to the kingdom of their Father


    Light is sown for the righteous,

    Joy is known by the upright in heart

    Peace is grown and love is planted by drawing nigh;

    What he’s concealin’ He’ll be revealin’

    When angels come to gather

    And bring them to the kingdom of their Father


    The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me

    His covenant love endures forever

    Do not abandon the works of your hands,

    And we’ll do our best to harvest the fields of white


    Light is sown for the righteous

    Joy is known by the upright in heart

    Peace is grown and love is planted by those who die

    He  knows they’re sleepin’ their souls He’s keepin’

    ‘Til angels come to gather

    And bring them to the kingdom of their Father

    They have their hope in the heavens openin’

    That’s when He’ll come to gather

    And tell them, “Welcome to the Kingdom of your Father,

    Welcome to the kingdom of your Father!”


    O Lord (I’ve Done It Again)


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 2020 Singin’ in the Reign Music/ASCAP


    O Lord, I’ve done it again

    That which I did not want to do

    And I know Lord, that I have sinned against you

    And you alone, forgive me


    Hey Lord, do you remember when

    I did it before a long time ago?

    What’s that you say, Lord

    Just this morning I did it too

    Oh, what can I tell you, but only 


    Create in me a clean heart O God

    And renew a right spirit within me

    Open my mouth, I will show forth your praise

    And teach the people your ways

    Make me clean, O God, from all you’ve seen, O God

    That I might serve you all of my days

    I wanna serve you all of my days


    La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

    Why do I never do what I should do?

    La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

    Why do I always do all the things I know you never would do?


    A sacrifice acceptable in your sight

    Is a spirit broken and a heart contrite

    So cleanse me pure with hyssop, I’m waiting

    My sins are surely dissipating me, and frustrating me

    I end up hating me! 


    O let your mercy flow and wash me white as snow

    Lord, I want you to smile, so I’ll never go and do that again

    I’m gonna show, Lord, that perfect is more my style

    But, it could take awhile

    So help me…


    Create in me a clean heart O God

    And renew a right spirit within me

    Open my mouth, I will show forth your praise

    And teach the people your ways

    Make me clean, O God, from all you’ve seen, O God

    That I might serve you all of my days

    I wanna serve you all of my days


    La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

    Why do I never do what I should do

    La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

    Why do I always do all the things I know you never would do


    Well teach me to always do

    All of the things you want me to do

    And then one day I will be perfect…

    Like you

    Did I leave you? Did you leave me?

    But now I need you to answer my plea

    Though I don’t know what I’m askin’

    And I know even less what I expect you to say, but...


    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I wait for you, I wait for you


    By now it’s quite clear I don’t know wrong from right

    And on goodness I’m makin’ no claim

    But when you are here and we struggle all night

    All I know is I can’t let you go ‘til you bless me

    And change my name, and.....


    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I wait for you, my soul waits for you


    I miss you so much I don’t know what to do

    Don’t you know that I love you, must I show you too

    Here is my mind for you to read

    All I need is your touch, only one, only one


    For you’re the only one from whom I need

    Forgiveness just one more time

    You’re the only one who had to bleed

    For my lack of understanding, take me back

    Take my hand in your way so sublime, for.....


    More than the Watchman for the morning

    More than the evenin’ for the dawning

    I’m blinkin at the sun, I’m starin’ at the moon!

    I wait for you, please come for me soon!

    Jesus, where are you? 

    We want to sing, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    Jesus, where are you? 

    We want to sing, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


    You and me, look around

    Don’t see a thing, don’t hear a sound

    So we’re wondering, have we really been found? 

    Or are we still lost? 

    And are we bound for that kingdom to come

    Where everyone sings, you’re King of Kings


    And you’re always the same, yesterday, today, and forever

    And if we say your name, we can claim all that’s good

    Have you promised you would be here? Or have we misunderstood? 


    Jesus, where are you? 

    We want to sing, Hallelujah, Hallelujah

    Jesus, where are you? 

    We want to sing, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


    You and me, swear He’s gone

    And there’s no hope to stand upon

    And oh how we grieve, till we hear that voice

    That makes us rejoice

    Say, ‘I’ll never leave, I’m not forsakin’ ya, only makin’ ya

    Learn to believe, you’ll mount up on wings to the mount where all of creation

    Sings, I’m King of Kings.


    Oh there you are, oh Jesus, hallelujah

    Hallelujah, there you are

    Oh Jesus, hallelujah


    Hallelujah, all of creation sings

    Jesus is King of Kings

    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Would one day walk on water?

    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Would save our sons and daughters?

    Did you know that your baby boy

    Has come to make you new?

    This child that you delivered, will soon deliver you


    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Will give sight to a blind man?

    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Will calm the storm with his hand?

    Did you know that your baby boy

    Has walked where angels trod?

    When you kiss your little baby

    You've kissed the face of God


    The blind will see, the deaf will hear

    The dead will live again

    The lame will leap, the dumb will speak

    The praises of the Lamb


    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Is Lord of all creation?

    Mary, did you know that your baby boy

    Would one day rule the nations?

    Did you know that your baby boy

    Is heaven's perfect Lamb?

    This sleeping child you're holding is the great, I Am


    A Child Was Born


    Words & Music by Michael Gleason

    © 1983 Sparrow


    Silent, deep in the night

    Half spent, one mother's child

    Was sent, into a world that would know Him not


    Dayspring, joy to the world

    Would bring, angels and men

    Still sing, the world that longed for His light to shine


    He was born to bring new life to the sons of men

    Even then was the treasure sold

    Even then was the treasure sold


    He came, making no earthly claim

    Suffered the guilt and shame, He never knew

    For me and you, still we knew Him not


    Surely he bore all our sorrow and despair

    This despised and forsaken man

    A despised and forsaken man


    Silent, deep in the night

    Half spent, one mother's child

    Was sent, into a world that would know Him not

    A child was born, and we knew Him not


    Jenny


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    © 2022 Singin' in the Reign Music


    I know a girl named Jenny, as many of you do

    To me she is not like any other girl I ever knew

    When we met I was beat and broken, yet, somehow, she let me in

    Then I plopped myself down in her life, to make sure life could begin


    I can remember Jenny, happy bright and free

    Things that were threatened from the day that she bumped into me

    Jenny and I were married, back in 1984

    I knew then I had found a pretty bride, now I know she is so much more


    See, Jenny understands

    Jenny, she forgives

    I’ll never doubt her, and without her, I just don’t know how I would live


    I love a girl named Jenny, I have most of my life

    The Lord showed He loved me when He gave me Jenny for a wife

    Seems from the time I saw her, a story would be told

    That God made us for each other, and with each other, we’d grow old


    Jenny, she’s my joy

    Jenny’s my best friend

    We’re tested and tried, and so with my bride, we’ll walk side by side until the end 


    I know a girl named Jenny, soft as silk, sharp as a knife

    And I couldn’t count the many ways that Jenny’s saved my life

    Oh I know I owe all to Jesus, He’s the one who made me free

    And I believed I would go to heaven, when to Him I bowed my knee

    But when I met a girl named Jenny

    That’s when heaven came to me


    Oh yes, I love a girl named Jenny

    And I’m happy she loves me


    Over the Rainbow


    Words by E.Y. Harburg, Music by Harold Arlen

    © 1939 Leo Feist, Inc.


    When all the world is a hopeless jumble 

    And the raindrops tumble all around

    Heaven opens a glorious lane


    When all the clouds darken up the skyway 

    There's a rainbow highway to be found

    Leading from your window pane

    To a place behind the sun

    Just a step beyond the rain


    Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high

    There's a land that I heard of

    Once in a lullaby


    Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue

    And the dreams that you dare to dream

    Really do come true


    Someday I'll wish upon a star

    And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

    Where troubles melt like lemon drops

    Away above the chimney tops

    That's where you'll find me


    Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly

    Birds fly over the rainbow

    Why then, oh, why can't I?


    Someday I'll wish upon a star

    And wake up where the clouds are far behind me

    Where troubles melt like lemon drops

    Away above the chimney tops

    That's where you'll find me


    Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue

    And the dreams that you dare to dream

    Really do come true


    Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly

    Birds fly over the rainbow

    Why then, oh, why can't I?


    If happy little bluebirds fly

    Beyond the rainbow

    Why, oh why, can't I?

    Come, O Sabbath day, and bring 

    Peace and healing on thy wing 

    And to every troubled breast 

    Speak of the divine behest 

    Thou shalt rest, thou shalt rest       

     

    Earthly longings bid retire 

    Quench the passion's hurtful fire 

    To the wayward, sin-oppressed 

    Bring thou thy divine behest

    Thou shalt rest, thou shalt rest       


    Shabbath shalom, shabbat shalom

    May the God of Israel give peace unto your home

    Peace unto your home

     

    Wipe from every cheek the tear 

    Banish care, and silence fear

    All things working for the best,

    Teach us the divine behest 

    Thou shalt rest, thou shalt rest       

    Thou shalt rest, thou shalt rest  

    Thou shalt rest, thou shalt rest       


    Charity


    Words & Music by Kenn Gulliksen

    Although I speak with tongues of men and of angels

    And though I prophesy and understand all

    Although I have all faith, so mountains may be removed

    And though I feed the poor and give up my life


    If I have not charity

    If love does not flow from me

    I am nothing

    Jesus reduce me to love


    Love is patient and kind. Love is not envious

    Not proud but gentle and meek, seeks not its own way

    Love sings when Jesus prevails believes and endures all things

    Love hopes and bears every wrong, and love never fails


    If I have not charity

    If love does not flow from me

    I am nothing

    Jesus reduce me to love


    If I have not charity

    If love does not flow from me

    I am nothing

    Jesus reduce me to love


    One season I was a child. I spoke and I thought as a child

    But when I turned to a man, such ways put aside

    Though now we see through a glass

    Yet then we shall see face to face

    Though now abide faith and hope, the greatest is love


    But if I have not charity

    If love does not flow from me

    I am nothing

    Jesus reduce me to love     


    If I have not charity

    If love does not flow from me

    I am nothing

    Jesus reduce me to love

    Jesus reduce me to love

     While the storm clouds gather

     Far across the sea

     Let us swear allegiance

     To a land that’s free

     Let us all be grateful

     For a land so fair

    As we raise our voices

    In a solemn prayer

     

    God bless America

    Land that I love

    Stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above


    From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam, God bless America

    My home, sweet home

    God bless America

    My home, sweet home


    God bless America

    Land that I love

    Stand beside her and guide her through the night with a light from above


    From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam, God bless America

    My home, sweet home

    God bless America

    My home, sweet home


    From the mountains, to the prairies, to the oceans white with foam, God bless America

    My home, sweet home

    God bless America

    Our home, sweet home


    Smile

    Smile though your heart is aching

    Smile even though it's breaking

    Though there are clouds in the sky

    you'll get by


    If you smile through your fear and sorrow

    Smile and maybe tomorrow

    You'll find the sun come shining through

    For you


    Light up your face with gladness

    Hide every trace of sadness

    Although a tear may be ever so near


    That's the time you must keep on trying

    Smile, what's the use of crying

    You'll find that life is still worthwhile

    If you just smile


    If you smile through your fear and sorrow

    Smile and maybe tomorrow

    You'll see the sun come shining through


    If you light up your face with gladness

    Hide every trace of sadness

    Although a tear may be ever so near


    That's the time you must keep on trying

    Smile, what's the use in crying

    You'll find that life is still worthwhile

    If you just smile

    Gone is the curse from which I stumbled and fell

    Evil is banished to eternal hell


    No more night, no more pain

    No more tears, never crying again

    And praises to the great, "I am"

    We will live in the light of the risen Lamb


    See all around, now the nations bow down to sing

    The only sound is the praises to Christ, our King

    Slowly the names from the book are read

    I know the King, so there's no need to dread


    No more night, no more pain

    No more tears, never crying again

    And praises to the great, "I am"

    We will live in the light of the risen Lamb


    See over there, there's a mansion prepared for me

    Where I will live with my Savior eternally


    See over there, there's a place He's prepared just for me

    Where I will live with my Savior eternally


    No more night, no more pain

    No more tears, never crying again

    And praises to the great, "I am"

    We will live in the light of the risen Lamb


    Praises to the great, "I am"

    We will live in the light of the risen Lamb

    We will live in the light of the risen Lamb

    Have yourself a merry little Christmas

    Let your heart be light

    Next year all our troubles, will be out of sight


    Have yourself a merry little Christmas

    Make the Yuletide gay

    From now on our troubles, will be miles away


    Once again, as in olden days

    Happy golden days of yore

    Faithful friends who are dear to us

    Gather near to us once more


    Through the years we all will be together

    Should the Lord allow

    Until then, we'll have to muddle through somehow

    So have yourself a merry little Christmas now


    Here we are, as in olden days

    Happy golden days of yore

    Faithful friends who are dear to us

    Will be near to us once more


    Through the years we all will be together

    Should the Lord allow

    Hang a shining star upon the highest bow

    And have yourself a merry little Christmas now


    Hang a shining star upon the highest bow

    And have yourself a merry little Christmas now


    Of Him, Through Him, and To Him (Romans 11)


    Words & Music by Marty Goetz

    Oh how deep are the riches, of the wisdom and knowledge of God

    And His ways, how unsearchable

    And His judgments past finding out

    For who has known His mind, who has been His counsel

    From whom did He get all these things, they should be repaid


    But of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things

    Of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things


    Oh what love has the Father, that He chose us to become like His son

    Now behold, we are His children

    Still not knowing just what we shall be

    But when He appears, when He comes in glory

    When He is revealed we know, we shall be like Him


    For of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things

    Of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things

    To Him be the glory forever and ever

    To him be the glory forever


    But when He appears, when He comes in glory

    When He is revealed we know that we shall be like Him


    For of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things

    Yes of Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things

    To Him be the glory forever and ever

    To him be the glory forever, forever 

    Amen


    We Will Never Forget (9/11 Tribute)

    20 years ago—20 years ago

    Planes of terror brought down our gleaming towers

    20 years ago

    People covered in dust and ash

    Cities smothered in smoke

    20 years ago—and to this day we know


    We will Never forget, We will always remember

    Just where we were

    When it all changed forever

    We will never forget

    That day in September

    Watching in fear—through those desperate hours

    That beautiful morning

    Moments before

    We knew a world—we know no more

    We can never forget

    We will never forget


    ‘Yitgadal, V’yitkadash’

    The prayer for mourners we pray

    Tears like rivers have washed the earth below 

    They’re still shed today

    Our Messiah—He also wept

    For those we loved, those we lost

    20 years ago—He knows each name and so


    We will Never forget, We will always remember

    All the brave heroes who ran to the danger

    We will never forget—that day in September

    Some cried ‘Let’s Roll’—Others died saving strangers

    Many would pay the ultimate price

    What can we say of such sacrifice

    We can never forget—We will never forget


    The dust has cleared—the dawn has broken—raging fires gone at last

    From the ash—hope has risen—clothed with steel and glass

    A symbol for our children

    Of liberty and strength

    May each new generation

    Look up and say—what we say today


    We will Never forget—We will always remember

    To hold loved ones near—for we’re not here forever

    We will never forget—Every year in September

    Freedom is dear—We must cherish it ever

    So we have come—to this solemn day

    Our hearts as one—We gather to say—We will never forget

    We can never forget

    Twenty years, now, and yet…

    We will never forget

    We will never forget!


    For Such a Time as This (Esther's Song)


    Music and Lyrics by Marty Goetz & Misha Goetz Hoyt

    ©2020 Singin’ in the Reign Music/Misha Goetz Music ASCAP


    (Esther)

    Who am I that I should find myself right here, right now?

    Who am I to try to save these lives—someway, somehow?

    Can it be that you chose me—a girl who no one knew?

    So afraid, unsure, not knowing—what to say, what to do—


    (Mordecai)

    For such a time as this—For such a time as this

    Are you our help—are you our hope?

    At such a time as this?

    Is there before you now—a chance you dare not miss?

    Could it be, you have come to the kingdom—

    For such a time as this?


    (Mordecai) You and I know - you’re the one to go before the king

    (Esther) How I fear- that He won’t hear - the message that I bring

    (M) I see you there, so young, so scared—

    not knowing what will be

    (E) If I should go, please tell my people—I’ve one plea—

    pray for me


    (Esther)

    For such a time as this—For such a time as this

    Is there a help—Is there a hope—At such a time as this?

    Is there before me now—a chance I dare not miss

    Could it be—I have come to the kingdom

    For such a time as this?


    (M) Will you find mercy there?

    (E) Or will I perish—who can say?

    (M+E) Still at this time we cannot keep silent

    We will stand—We will pray!


    (M) For such a time as this 

    (E) (Who am I, How could it be?)

    (M) For such a time as this

    (E) (That you would choose someone like me)

    (M) There is a help

    (E) (I’ll go)

    (M) There is a hope

    (E) (And so)

    (M) At such a time as this

    (E) (I know I must be strong)


    (M) There is before us now

    (E) (Now that my purpose I can see)

    (M) A chance we dare not miss

    (E) (Nothing matters more to me)

    (M) Could it be—

    (M + E) We have come to the kingdom

    For such a time as this? 


    There is before us now

    A chance we dare not miss

    Could it be, we have come to the kingdom

    For such a time as this? 

    We have come to the kingdom 

    For such a time as this!
