Sing And Be Happy

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

If the skies above you are gray, you are feeling so blue,
If your cares and burdens seem great, all the whole day through,
There’s a silver lining that shines in the heavenly land,
Look by faith and see it my friend, trust in His promises grand.

 

(Chorus)
Sing and you’ll be happy today, press along to the goal,
Trust in Him who leadeth the way, He is keeping your soul;
Let the world know where you belong, look to Jesus and pray,
Lift your voice and praise Him in song, Sing and be happy today.

 

Often we are troubled and tired, sick with sorrow and pain,
There are others living in sin, blest with earthly gain,
Take new courage we cannot tell what the morrow may bring,
When the dark clouds vanish away then your heart truly can sing.

 

(Chorus)
Sing and you’ll be happy today, press along to the goal,
Trust in Him who leadeth the way, He is keeping your soul;
Let the world know where you belong, look to Jesus and pray,
Lift your voice and praise Him in song, Sing and be happy today.

 

Oft we fail to see the rainbow up in heaven’s fair sky,
When it seems the fortunes of earth frown and pass up by,
There are things we know that are worth more than silver and gold,
If we hope and trust Him each day, we shall have pleasure untold.

 

(Chorus)
Sing and you’ll be happy today, press along to the goal,
Trust in Him who leadeth the way, He is keeping your soul;
Let the world know where you belong, look to Jesus and pray,
Lift your voice and praise Him in song, Sing and be happy today

I Stand Amazed

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me, a sinner condemned unclean.

(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!

 

For me it was in the garden, He prayed, “Not My will, but Thine.”
He had no tears for His own griefs, but sweat drops of blood for mine.

(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!

 

In pity angels beheld Him, and came from the world of light
To comfort Him in the sorrows, He bore for my soul that night.

(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!

 

He took my sins and my sorrows, He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary, and suffered, and died alone.

(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!

 

When with the ransomed in glory, His face I at last shall see,
‘Twill be my joy through the ages to sing of His love for me. 

(Chorus)
How marvelous! How wonderful! And my song shall ever be:
How marvelous! How wonderful is my Savior’s love for me!

It Is Well With My Soul

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

In my opinion, the best hymn EVER…

 

When peace like a river attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll.
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, It is well, with my soul.

 

(Chorus)
It is well (It is well) with my soul (with my soul).
It is well, It is well, with my soul.

 

My sin–O the bliss of this glorious thought–
My sin, not in part, but the whole,
Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more;
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul.

 

(Chorus)
It is well (It is well) with my soul (with my soul).
It is well, It is well, with my soul.

 

And, Lord, haste the day when the faith shall be sight,
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,
The Trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend.
Even so, it is well with my soul.

 

(Chorus)
It is well (It is well) with my soul (with my soul).
It is well, It is well, with my soul.

–H.G. Spalford

Faithful Love

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

Faithful love flowing down from the thorn-covered crown,
makes me whole, saves my soul, washes whiter than snow.
Faithful love calms each fear, reaches down, dries each tear;
holds my hand when I can’t stand on my own.

(Chorus)

Faithful love from above came to earth to show the Father’s love.
And I’ll never be the same, for I’ve seen faithful love face to face.
And Jesus is His name.
Faithful love from above came to earth to show the Father’s love.
And I’ll never be the same, for I’ve seen faithful love face to face.
And Jesus is His name.

Faithful love is a friend just when hope seems to end,
welcome face, sweet embrace, tender touch filled with grace.
Faithful love, endless power, living flame, Spirit’s fire;
Burning bright in the night, guiding my way.

(Chorus)

Faithful love from above came to earth to show the Father’s love.
And I’ll never be the same, for I’ve seen faithful love face to face.
And Jesus is His name.
Faithful love from above came to earth to show the Father’s love.
And I’ll never be the same, for I’ve seen faithful love face to face.
And Jesus is His name.

Ancient Words

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

Holy words long preserved for our walk in this world;
They resound with God’s own heart, O, let the ancient words impart.
Words of life, words of hope, give us strength, help us cope;
In this world where-’er we roam, Ancient words will guide us home.

 

Ancient words ever true, changing me, and changing you;
We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words impart.

 

Holy words of our faith, handed down to this age,
came to us through sacrifice, O, heed the faithful words of Christ.
Holy words, long preserved for our walk in this world,
They resound with God’s own heart, O, let the ancient words impart.

 

Ancient words ever true, changing me, and changing you;
We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words impart.

 

Ancient words ever true, changing me, and changing you;
We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words impart.

 

We have come with open hearts, O let the ancient words impart.
O let the ancient words impart.

We Shall Assemble

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

We shall assemble on the mountain,
we shall assemble at the throne.
With humble hearts into His presence,
we bring an offering of song.
Glory and honor and dominion,
unto the Lamb, unto the King.
Oh hallelujah, hallelujah!
We sing the song of the redeemed.
We shall assemble on the mountain,
we shall assemble at the throne.
With humble hearts into His presence,
we bring an offering of song.
Glory and honor and dominion,
unto the Lamb, unto the King.
Oh hallelujah, hallelujah!
We sing the song of the redeemed.

Every Time

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

(1) Every time I kneel to pray, I open up my heart to my Lord.
Every time I close my eyes, I feel the sweet embrace of my Lord.

(Chorus):
I don’t know why so many things seem to get in the way of seeing my God’s glory.
But I try every day to see Him and to thank Him for all the things He’s given me.

(2) Every time I see a child, I see the gentleness of my Lord.
Every time I watch a storm, I know the awesome pow’r of my Lord.

(Chorus):
I don’t know why so many things seem to get in the way of seeing my God’s glory.
But I try every day to see Him and to thank Him for all the things He’s given me.

(3) Every time I see the cross.

We Bow Down

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

You are Lord of creation and Lord of my life,
Lord of the land and the sea.
You were Lord of the heavens before there was time,
and Lord of all lords You will be!

We bow down and we worship You Lord,
We bow down and we worship You Lord,
We bow down and we worship You Lord.
Lord of all lords You will be!

You are King of creation and King of my life,
King of the land and the sea.
You were King of the heavens before there was time,
and King of all kings You will be!

We bow down and we crown You the King,
We bow down and we crown You the King,
We bow down and we crown You the king.
King of all kings You will be!

You Are My All In All

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics

(1) You are my strength when I am weak,
You are the treasure that I seek,
You are my all in all.
Seeking You as a precious jewel,
Lord to give up I’d be a fool,
You are my all in all.

(2) Taking my sin, my cross, my shame,
Rising again I bless Your name,
You are my all in all.
When I fall down You pick me up,
When I am dry You fill my cup,
You are my all in all.

(Refrain) Jesus, Lamb of God, Worthy is your name.
Jesus, Lamb of God, Worthy is your name.

–Dennis L. Jernigan

“For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong” (2 Corinthians 12:10).

In Moments Like These

Published by Jason Browning under Lyrics, Psalms

In moments like these, I sing out a song,
I sing out a love song to Jesus.
In moments like these, I lift up my voice,
I lift up my voice to the Lord.
Singing I love You Lord, singing I love You Lord;
Singing I love You, Lord.
I love You.

In moments like these, I sing out a song,
I sing out a love song to Jesus.
In moments like these, I lift up my hands,
I lift up my hands to the Lord.
Singing I love You Lord, singing I love You Lord;
Singing I love You, Lord.
I love You.

–David Graham

 

“I love You, Lord, my strength.
The Lord is my rock,
my fortress, and my deliverer,
my God, my mountain where I seek refuge,
my stronghold.
I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,
and I was saved from my enemies” (Psalm 18:1-3).
