Hallelujah

Image
Hallelujah, He is Risen, who is the first and last Beyond the valley of the shadow he has surely passed He lives, he lives who once was dead We sing hallelujah to our God  who bled. His tomb is now empty for death held Him in vain So shall the tombs of them be, who in Him remain Those who died with Him who died upon the tree Shall surely rise again to live righteously. And death cannot stifle immortal breath The grave’s power  has died with death He died for all so that those who live begin To no longer live for self but rather Live for Him.  Our sure response is Holy Jubilation A joyous song  now fills us with elation He is the sacrifice of expiation He is the cause of all our celebration The Lord sits on His throne in the heavenlies  He is reigning according to His sovereign decree.  Ruling o’er the cosmos  and each soul He is working out all things  under His control According to the counsel of His will (Eph. 1:11),  Even the hard things a...

Walk With the Lord

Image
I will walk with the Lord With the Lord in His timing I will rest, I will rest Keep in step with the Spirit On this mountain we’re climbing Climbing as a trust and a test I will not grow weary as I run I will keep pace until the race is done I will rise with the rising of the Son For I will walk with the Lord I will walk in the light In the light of His glory I will walk, I will walk Walk by faith not by sight This shall be my story I will not balk, will not balk I will follow the pathway step by step On the trail of the tears that I have wept  I can trace all the promises He’s  kept So I will walk with the Lord! I will not grow weary as I run I will keep pace until the race is done I will rise with the rising of the Son For I will walk with the Lord 1 John 1:5-7 August 17, 2021 Anthony Foster

The mystery of mercy I cannot comprehend That by your steadfast love we are reconciled You blot out my transgressions, Lord help me apprehend The fact that I am loved as your own child Have mercy on me, O God, redeem my soul By your steadfast love I am called According to your abundant mercy make me whole Blot out my transgressions once for all In Christ we see the mystery of mercy is revealed By grace through faith the gift shall become known The power, pardon and favor is no longer concealed The gift of repentance given by your grace alone Come all who are hungry and are thirsty Come receive His steadfast love’s embrace The Lord, the Lord, our God is known for mercy He is slow to anger, and full of grace Have mercy on me, O God, redeem my soul By your steadfast love I am called According to your abundant mercy make me whole Blot out my transgressions once for all Psalm 51:1; Exodus 34:6–7 August 18, 2021 Anthony Foster

The Blood of Jesus

Image
Oh the Blood of Jesus will wash away our sins The Blood of Jesus the sinners soul will cleanse For those who trust in Jesus the covenant comes true! Lord put the fear of You in our hearts that we might not turn from You! You purchased our perseverance, you bought it with your blood The Spirit works within us to immerse us in the flood That covers o’er all our sin and purifies our souls, So Jesus shall preserve our faith and take us to our goal! The Blood of Jesus justifies The Blood of Jesus satisfies The Blood of Jesus reconciles And purifies that which defiles Heaven has given all that it can give So united with His life now we live Oh the blood of Jesus is our Covenant seal, Oh the blood of Jesus shall be our one appeal! We are secure forever- we who on the promise stand, For Jesus has fulfilled the work the Father planned! Jesus has fulfilled the work the Father planned! Jesus has fulfilled the work the Father planned! Jeremiah 32:40; 1 John 1:7; Romans 5:9 August 9, 2021 Anthony F...
