When Down In The Valley !

When I was down in the darkest valley
And darkness was everywhere,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Friend who for me so cared.
When I was down in the darkest valley
And I struggled to bear the pain,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Master did rule and reign.
When I was down in the darkest valley
And I at times so battled to cope,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Comforter brought me hope.
When I was down in the darkest valley
And loneliness overwhelmed me each day,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Companion by me did stay.
When I was down in the darkest valley
And I struggled to see any light,
It was there that I found my Jesus
Was my Guide both day and night.
When I was down in the darkest valley
And I struggled along life's road,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Up-lifter to help bear the load
When I was down in the darkest valley
And death came so close to me,
It was there that I found my Jesus
My Saviour did set me free.

Amidst Winds of Adversity !

As winds of adversity come our way,
You Lord stand by us each day,
To be our shelter in the time of storms
Until the dangers have gone away.
You provide for us a sure foundation
Upon which we can safely stand,
As we take refuge in the time of storm
Upheld Lord by Your Hand.
You stand with us as the storms rage
In love You cover us along the way,
To protect us from the dangers nearby
That we face in life each day.
You provide for us a safe haven Lord
Safe from the dangers we face,
As You provide an Anchor for our souls
And uphold us Lord by Your Grace.
You guide us Lord to where we'll be safe
From the dangers that come our way,
As we look to You for shelter Lord
In life each step of the way.

I Have Been !

I have been in the deepest valley
I have climbed the highest hill,
I have learnt from all that I've been through
To yield unto m Father God's Will.
I have been in the raging waters
I have been in the searing sun,
I have learnt from all that I've been through
God helps me each day to press on.
I have learnt how in every circumstance
That God so allowed me to face,
He too was with me always
                                                                                                      To uphold me by His Grace.
                                                                                                  I have been in places of utter darkness
                                                                                                    I have been where the path was unclear,
                                                                                                    I have learnt from all that I've been through
                                                                                                          God stays by me ever so near.
                                                                                                 I have been where the storm was raging
                                                                                                   I have been where it was arid and dry,
                                                                                                I have learnt from all that I've been through
                                                                                                     God is forever close by.

His Everything

Nothing of value comes without a cost
Nothing is ever really free,
For those things that are everlasting
Comes out of hardship for you and me.
Nothing of value comes without a cost
For only in dealings do we come to the place,
Where we find the true values of things in our lives
Amidst all that we in life face.
Nothing of value comes without a cost
And those things that are worth holding onto,
Are the Promises of God to all who believe
Made long ago to both you and me.
Nothing of value comes without a cost
Including our salvation, our redemption from sin,
For while to every believer it is totally free
It cost our Lord Jesus Christ His everything.

Thus says the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's.

 You shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you,

O Judah and Jerusalem: fear not, nor be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you.

2 Chronicles20:16,17

The Mount Of Crucifixion !

On the Mount of Crucifixion, Jesus Christ died for you and me
On the Mount of Crucifixion, yes on the Cross of Calvary,
Christ bore all of our sin, yes all the sin of fallen man
So that we would be redeemed and before our Father God in time stand.
Not to receive judgement to be sentenced, to be cast for eternity one day
Into eternal damnation, by not responding to Jesus Christ the Way,
But rather to receive from Him Blessings, to be crowned as children of the King
For all of eternity yet to come, redeemed in Love and Mercy from sin.

On the Mount of Crucifixion, Jesus Christ died on that awful day
On the Mount of Crucifixion, He so suffered so that you and I may,
By claiming the Power of His Blood, over the power of death and sin
Stand today redeemed by Grace, as children of the King.
So my friend know this today, my Lord Jesus Christ is beckoning
You to open the door of your heart to Him and today so allow Him in,
So that He may so become your Saviour, your Lord and King for eternity
If this is what you so desire, then now say this with me:

I confess I am a sinner Jesus, yes today it is true
There is no other way to salvation, other than the Cross through You
I confess I am a sinner my Jesus, forgive me of my sin I pray
I claim my salvation by Your Blood and now unto You I say.

Please come into my life Jesus, to become my Lord
Please come into my life today, Christ to be my King,
Please come into my life today, for I am a sinner indeed
And only You can set me free, forevermore from my sin.
By the Power of Your Blood, You shed for me in Love
Upon the Cross of Calvary, where You bore my sin one day
Please come into my life to fill up the emptiness within
Yes please come into my life now, so that I may, I pray.
Begin my new life in You my Lord, as a child of God today
Washed clean by Your Blood, from the power of all sin,
A new life in You, forevermore My Lord Jesus Christ
From now on and forever, as a child of the King. AMEN !!!

Thank You my Jesus, Thank You for becoming My Saviour, My Lord and My King today !!!
