(I just like the song and it’s been on repeat in my playlist recently =))

Times
by Tenth Avenue North 

I know I need You
I need to love You
I’d love to see You but it’s been so long 

I long to feel You
I feel this need for You
I need to hear You
Is that so wrong

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 

Now You pull me near You
When we’re close I fear You
Still I’m afraid to tell you all that I’ve done 

Are You done forgiving
Or can You look past my pretending, Lord
I’m so tired of defending what I’ve become
What have I become

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh 

I hear You say
My love is over
It’s underneath
It’s inside
It’s in between 

The times that you doubt me
When you can’t feel
The times that you question
Is this for real 

The times you’re broken
The times that you mend
The times you hate me
And the times that you bend 

Well my love is over
It’s underneath
It’s inside
It’s in between 

The times that you’re healing
And when your heart breaks
The times that you feel like you’ve fallen from grace 

The times you’re hurting
The times that you heal
The times you go hungry and are tempted to steal 

In times of confusion
In chaos and pain
I’m there in your sorrow under the weight of your shame 

I’m there through your heart-ache
I’m there in the storm
My love I will keep you by my power alone 

I don’t care where you’ve fallen or where you have been
I’ll never forsake you
My love never ends
It never ends, mmmm

Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh

Love Song for #1

~Corrinne May

In the twinkling stars that dance like fireflies
In the blushing fruit that hangs upon the vine
In the face of a baby as he forms his first smile
I see you

In the whisper of the wind’s soft lullaby
In the laughter and the roar of the rushing tide
In the song of a sparrow as he takes his first flight
I hear you

Why do you hide among the nameless and forgotten
Why do you walk along these long forsaken roads
Calling to me in the hungry and the homeless
Calling me to water your thirst

So I’ll give you my heart and my song
In a world where so much is right
But so much is wrong
Your love is my beginning and I know it won’t be too long
Till I see you

Why do you hide among the nameless and forgotten
Why do you walk along these long forsaken roads
Calling to me in the hungry and the homeless
Calling me to water your thirst

So I’ll give you my heart and my song
In a world where so much is right
But so much is wrong
Your love is my beginning and I know it won’t be too long
Till I see you, I hear you, I love you

The Face of Love
by Sanctus Real 

I’ve seen your face on stained glass, in colored lights
In pictures of you looking to the sky

You’ve been portrayed a thousand different ways
But my heart can see you better than my eyes
‘Cause it’s love that paints the portrait of your life

The face of love
The face of love
You look more like love everyday

I’ve read your words in the pages of your life
And I’ve imagined what you were like
I may not know the shape of your face
But I can feel your heart changing mine
And your love still proves that you’re alive

The face of love
The face of love
You look more like love everyday

You are the face that changed the whole world
No one too lost for you love
No one too low for you to serve
So give us the grace to change the world
No one too lost for me to love
No one too low for me to serve

Let us see
Let us be your face

I Need Thee Every Hour
by Jars of Clay

I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford

I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby
Temptations lose their power
When Thou art nigh

I need thee, oh, I need thee, every hour I need Thee
I need thee, I need thee, I need Thee every hour

I need Thee every hour in joy or pain
Come quickly and abide or life is in vain
I need Thee, oh, I need Thee, every hour I need Thee
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour

Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee
Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee
I need Thee every hour, teach me Thy will
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill

I need Thee, oh, I need Thee
Oh I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour
I need Thee, I need Thee, I need Thee every hour

Oh, bless me now, my Savior, I come to Thee 

Others
by Israel Houghton

I see the state of the world and it grieves me
I hear the cries of the broken of the rich and poor
Smell the fear of disease all around me

I feel responsible now that I see
‘Cause we all were born to live for more than this
More than this

So I want to love like you love
Love like you love want to love others
The way that you love me

So I want to love like you love
Love like you love want to love others
The way that you love me
The way that you love me 

I’ve held the children unseen and they move me
I wonder what I can do to improve a thousand lives
I feel the absence of love and it scares me

I feel responsible now that I see
‘Cause we all were born to live for more than this
So much more than this

So I want love like you love
Love like you love, want to love others
The way you love me

Yea I want to love like you love
Love like you love, want to love others
The way you love me
The way you love

I was that lost soul that you rescued
I was the orphan you adopted, brought into your heart
I was acquainted with the hopelessness of living in the streets, that was me

Now I’m gonna love like you love
Love like you love, help me love others
The way you love me

I’m gonna forgive, how you forgave
And rescue like you have saved
Others, others, others, others, others
The way you love me, the way you love me

You first loved me, that’s why I love you
‘Cause you first loved me
Yeah, you first loved me

“If I find in myself a desire which no experience in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world.”
C.S. Lewis

C.S. Lewis Song
by Brooke Fraser 

If I find in myself 
desires nothing in this world can satisfy, 
I can only conclude 
that I, I was not made for here 
If the flesh that I fight is at best 
only light and momentary, 
then of course I’ll feel nude 
when to where I’m destined I’m compared 

Speak to me in the light of the dawn 
Mercy comes with the morning 
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
as I wait for hope to come for me 

Am I lost or just less found? 
On the straight or on the roundabout 
of the wrong way? 
Is this a soul that stirs in me 
is it breaking free, wanting to come alive? 
‘Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb 
And avoid the impending birth 
of who I was born to become 

Speak to me in the light of the dawn 
Mercy comes with the morning 
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
as I wait for hope to come for me 

For we, we are not long here 
Our time is but a breath, 
so we better breathe it 
And I, I was made to live 
I was made to love 
I was made to know you 
Hope is coming for me 
Hope, He’s coming for me 
Hope is coming for me 
Hope, He’s coming 

Speak to me in the light of the dawn 
Mercy comes with the morning 
I will sigh and with all creation groan 
as I wait for hope to come for me 
For me, for me, for me 


The bold lyrics of this song is a rephrase (by the Brooke Fraser) of the C.S. Lewis quote above. The meaning of this song surrounds the quote and now that I know, I like the meaning of the song.

Prayers Of The Righteous
by Pentecostals of Alexandria 

When we pray, we believe, we receive what we ask
In His name all things are possible
When we pray we tap into miraculous thing
And victoriously we declare

That we know that the prayers of the righteous availeth much
The prayer of the righteous prevails
Yes we know, the prayers of the righteous prevails
His love never fails
The prayers of the righteous availeth much

We are victorious
We are victorious
We are victorious
We are, we are

You are miraculous
You are miraculous
You are miraculous
You are, you are

“And I sought for a man among them, that should make up the hedge, and stand in the gap before me for the land, that I should not destroy it: but I found none.”
Ezekial 22:30 

God was seeking for just one person who would stand in the gap and intercede on behalf of the nation. The fate of the entire nation could have be reverted, if one man had made himself/herself available.

“Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.”
James 5:16

Therefore, pray; intercede; travail for your loved ones, your friends, your leaders, your government and your nation for the prayers of the righteous availeth much. There are prayers that touch Heaven and change earth.

Amen.

Sweeter
by Lakewood 

Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before 
Every morning I will worship, every evening I’ll adore
Cause everyday with You is sweeter, sweeter than the day before

What a privilege to know You, like I know You
To be loved like You loved me
What honor to worship, truly worship
From this heart that You have freed
From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same 

Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before 
Every morning I will worship, every evening I’ll adore
Cause everyday with You is sweeter, sweeter than the day before

What a wonder to live life, really live life
Overcoming anything
What a reason to lift up, freely lift up
Everyday my everything 

From the rising of the sun to the setting of the same
Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before 
Every morning I will worship, every evening I’ll adore
Cause everyday with You is sweeter, sweeter than the day before 

Everyday, everyday with You, Lord 
Everyday, sweeter than the day before 

Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before
Everyday with You, Lord is sweeter than the day before 
Every morning I will worship, every evening I’ll adore
Cause everyday with You is sweeter, sweeter than the day before
 

(couldn’t get it uploaded ytd so here’s the post right now)
And I thought my days couldn’t get any better, cause they have been so so so good. It’s crazy. Again, if i would tell you everything in detail (and I am super long-winded), this could get endless… This song can seriously describe how I am feeling right now - everyday with God is getting sweeter, sweeter than the day before. 

Not all days and not all moments are good; I did struggle and had to fight but I fought it through, together with God and at the end, it just brought me even closer to Him… What more can I ask for? Yet, God still has so much more to give…

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.”
1 Corinthians 2:9

Thank you God. 

I Will Search (Acoustic) 
by Israel Houghton 

How precious how lovely
Are your thoughts oh Lord toward me
How truly amazing
Is the grace that You have shown
Oh Majesty I live to see Your face

I will search for You
And I will find You
I will find You with all my heart
I will lift my hands to You in worship
And I will worship with all my heart

How gracious relentless
Is the Father’s love toward us
Breathtaking the beauty
And the radiance of You
Oh Majesty I live to see Your face
And be transformed
Into your image 


This is seriously one of my favouritest favouritest song ever because it reminds me of one of my favouritest favouritest scripture ever.

“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”
Jeremiah 29:11-13

It is a promise from God and the ‘if’ is on our part, God is always there… And if we would seek Him and search for Him with all of our heart, we are definitely going to find Him. =)

(Thank you for all the new follows, I wasn’t expecting it all… I pray whatever I can share here on this blog would really bless you and make a difference in your life in anyway possible. GBU!)
