Bigger Than Any Mountain

Written by: G. Jenson

Bigger than all my problem bigger than all my fears
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or can not see
Bigger than all my question bigger than anything
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or can not see 

He's bigger than all the shadows that falls across my path
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see
Bigger than my confusion bigger than anything
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see

Bigger than all my problems bigger than all my fears
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see
Bigger than all my questions bigger than anything
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see

He's bigger than all the giants of fear and unbelief
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see
Bigger than all my hang ups bigger than anything
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see

Bigger than all my problem bigger than all my fears
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see
Bigger than all my questions bigger than anything
God is bigger than any mountain that I can or cannot see

Through The Fire

Written By: Gerald Crabb. © 1999 Lehsem Songs

So many times I've questioned certain circumstances
Or things I could not understand
Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision
And my frustration gets so out of hand
Its then I am reminded I've never been forsaken
I've never had to stand the test alone
As I look at all the victories
The spirit rises up in me
And its through the fire my weakness is made strong

Chorus:

He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
And the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered our victories without fighting
But He said help would always come in time
Just remember when your standing in the valley of decision
And the adversary says give in
Just hold on, our Lord will show up
And He will take you through the fire again

I know within myself that I would surely perish
But if I trust the hand of God, He'll shield the flames again, again
He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
And the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered our victories without fighting
But He said help would always come in time
Just remember when your standing in the valley of decision
And the adversary says give in
Just hold on, our Lord will show up
And He will take you through the fire again

This Valley is For Me

by Ricky Atkinson

As I look down this mountain side
I can see where this road goes
The shepherd is leading me
To a place where I can grow
Tho' it seems to be a trying test
I have no doubt he knows what's best
It just might be a place of perfect rest

 

Chorus
This valley is for me

This valley is for me
The waters have been made so sweet
A pleasant rest for my weary feet
This valley is for me
A far cry from the mountain scene
The grass here has been made so green
My shepherd chose this route
So i can say without a doubt
This valley is for me

 

Standing here beside still water
I know why I am here today
This place of restoration
Will strengthen me along the way
Thru the valley i can feel
His presence here is so real
And now i know it was his perfect will

Little David

 CHORUS:

"The battle's not mine," said Little David,
"Lord, it's Thine, I'm in Your favor.
I'm giving it all to You, I knew not what to do.
I'm so glad You let me see, You're really all that I need.
For the battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."

1. Little David looked so small, Goliath looked so tall,
The odds were just too high for Little David.
So he shook off all of his load for with the power of God he was bold,
He said, "The battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."

CHORUS:

2. A Little David he stood tall, now Goliath seemed so small,
Sweet victory had reigned for Little David.
He gave the battle to One with a record for getting things done,
He said, "The battle's not mine, I give it to You, Lord, it's Thine."

Christ Arose

Low in the grave He lay
Jesus my Savior!
Waiting the coming day
Jesus my Lord!

 

Up from the grave He arose
With a mighty triumph o'er His foes
He arose a Victor from the dark domain
And He lives forever with His saints to reign
He arose! (He arose)
He arose! (He arose)
Hallelujah! Christ arose!

 

Vainly they watch His bed
Jesus, my Savior!
Vainly they seal the dead
Jesus my Lord!

Death cannot keep his prey
Jesus, my Savior!
He tore the bars away
Jesus my Lord!

 

The Anchor Holds

By Ray Boltz

I have journeyed through the long, dark night 

Out on the open sea,

By faith alone, sight unknown, 

And yet His eyes were watching me.
 

Chorus:

The Anchor holds, though the ship is battered.

The Anchor holds, though the sails are torn.

Well I have fallen on my knees, as I faced the raging sea,

But the Anchor holds, in spite of the storm.

I've had visions and I've had dreams; 

Well I've even held them in my hands,

But I never knew those dreams could slip right through 

Like they were only grains of sand.



Now I have been young, but I am older now.

O and there has been beauty these eyes have seen;

But it was in the night, when I faced the storms of my life.

Oh, that's where God proved His love to me.

The Haven of Rest

By Henry L. Gilmour  

My soul in sad exile was out on life’s sea, 

So burdened with sin and distressed, 

Till I heard a sweet voice, saying,

 “Make Me your choice”;

 And I entered the “Haven of Rest”! 

 

 I’ve anchored my soul in the “Haven of Rest,” 

I’ll sail the wide seas no more; 

The tempest may sweep over wild, stormy, deep, 

In Jesus I’m safe evermore. 

 

I yielded myself to His tender embrace, 

In faith taking hold of the Word, 

My fetters fell off, and I anchored my soul; 

The “Haven of Rest” is my Lord. 

 

 The song of my soul, since the Lord made me whole, 

Has been the old story so blest, 

Of Jesus, who’ll save whosoever will have 

A home in the “Haven of Rest.” 

 

How precious the thought that we all may recline, 

Like John, the beloved so blest, 

On Jesus’ strong arm, where no tempest can harm, 

Secure in the “Haven of Rest.” 

 

Oh, come to the Savior, He patiently waits 

To save by His power divine; 

Come, anchor your soul in the “Haven of Rest,” 

And say, “My Beloved is mine."

His Grace is Sufficient

By Mosie Lister 

Many times I'm tried and tested 

As I travel day by day 

`Oft I meet with pain and sorrow 

And there's trouble in the way 

But I have a sweet assurance 

That my soul, the Lord will lead 

And in Him there is strength for every need. 

 

CHORUS 

O, His grace is sufficient for me 

And His love is abundant and free 

And what joy fills my soul, 

Just to know, just to know 

 That His grace is sufficient for me

 

When the tempter brings confusion

And I don't know what to do, 

On my knees I turn to Jesus 

For He'll always see me through 

Then despair is changed to victory 

Every doubt just melts away 

And in Him there is hope for everyday

Because He Lives

God sent His son, they called Him Jesus 

He came to love, heal, and forgive. 

He lived and died to buy my pardon, 

An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives. 

 

Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. 

Because He lives, All fear is gone. 

Because I know He holds the future, 

And life is worth the living just because He lives. 

 

How sweet to hold a newborn baby, 

And feel the pride and joy he gives. 

But greater still the calm assurance, 

This child can face uncertain days because He lives. 

 

And then one day I'll cross the river, 

I'll fight life's final war with pain.

 And then as death gives way to victory, 

I'll see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives. ~ William and Gloria Gaither ~

Peace in the Midst of the Storm

When the world that I've been living in collapses at my feet

 When my life is shattered and torn 

Though I'm windswept and battered, 

I can cling to His cross 

And find peace in the midst of the storm 

 

There is peace in the midst of my storm-tossed life 

Oh, there's an anchor, there's a rock to cast my faith upon 

Jesus rides in my vessel, so I'll fear no alarm 

He gives me peace in the midst of my storm 

 

When in twenty-four short hours, 

Years of living are brought to moments 

And when life's final picture is taking form 

In the dark room of my suff'ring 

There's a light comes shining through! (shining through)

 He gives me peace in the midst of my storm

Fill My Cup, Lord

Words and Music by Richard Blanshard John 4:14 "But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst;but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life."  

Like the woman at the well 

I was seeking 

For things that could not satisfy: 

And then I heard my Savior speaking: 

"Draw from my well that never shall run dry".

 

Chorus

Fill my cup Lord, I lift it up, Lord! 

Come and quench this thirsting of my soul; 

Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more 

Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole! 

 

There are millions in this world who are craving 

The pleasures earthly things afford;

 But none can match the wondrous treasure 

That I find in Jesus Christ my Lord.

On Eagles Wings

 

 

 

 

 

You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord

Who abide in His shadow for life,

Say to the Lord: 'My refuge,

My God in whom I trust!'

 

And He will raise you up on eagles' wings,

Bear you on the breath of dawn,

Make you to shine like the sun,

And hold you in the palm of His hand. 

 

The snare of the fowler will never capture you,

And famine will bring you no fear:

Under His wings your refuge,

His faithfulness your shield. 

 

You need not fear the terror of the night,

Nor the arrow that flies by day;

Though thousands fall about you,

Near you it shall not come.

 

For to His angels He's given a command

To guard you in all of your ways'

Upon their hands they will bear you up,

Lest you dash your foot against a stone.

Under His Wings

Under His wings I am safely abiding, 

Though the night deepens and tempests are wild, 

Still I can trust Him; 

I know He will keep me, 

He has redeemed me, and I am His child. 

 

Under His wings, under His wings, 

Who from His love can sever? 

Under His wings my soul shall abide, 

Safely abide forever. 

 

Under His wings, what a refuge in sorrow! 

How the heart yearningly turns to His rest!

Often when earth has no balm for my healing, 

There I find comfort, and there I am blessed. 

 

Under His wings, oh, what precious enjoyment! 

There will I hide till life’s trials are o’er; 

Sheltered, protected, no evil can harm me,

 Resting in Jesus, I’m safe evermore.

The Curtain of TIme

When my final breath departs from this old body 

And my eyes have closed in slumber one last time 

Lord, I just ask that to your presence you will guide me 

To the land just beyond the curtain of time 

 

Chorus

It's a land where sickness cannot enter 

And the toils of life no more will cloud our minds 

There'll be no worries o'er tomorrow 

No sorrows of yesterday 

One endless day, just beyond the curtain of time 

 

Precious brothers and precious sisters there are waiting 

Forever youthful in their robes of spotless white 

Not a shadow of corruption, only joy and love divine 

One breath away, just beyond the curtain of time

When Nothing But A Miracle Will Do

When you've tried everything and everything you've tried has failed,
When you're standing at the harbor and the ship of hope has sailed;
Friends have no answers and peace just can't be found,
Oh, but there's a hand of mercy that can turn it all around

Chorus

When nothing, but a miracle, will do,
There's nothing that the hand of God cannot bring you through.
Well, I know He's more than able and He will deliver you,
When nothing but a miracle, will do.

When you cried out in the darkness and no one seems to hear
Just because you can't see Him, doesn't mean He isn't near.
Perhaps He's only waiting 'til you've done all you can do
Until He's the only thing that’s left to hold on too.

In your time of trials when you face the trial of doubt
Oh, just listen to a crowd of witnesses; you'll hear them crying out;
From a lion's den and a fiery furnace, from the belly of a whale,
Through prison walls, at a hopeless turn, walks a God who never fails
Ask Daniel, and Jonah, Peter and Paul, They're shouting with Lazarus He's livin' after all.

I've Got Confidence

Proverbs 14:26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.  

I've Got Confidence Andrea Crouch 

When trouble is in my way 

I can't tell the night from day 

When I toss from side to side 

Like a ship on the raging tide 

I don't worry and I don't fret 

God has never failed me yet 

Troubles come from time to time 

But that's all right, 'cause I'm not the worrying kind 

 

Chorus:  

I've got confidence 

God is going to see me through 

No matter what the case may be, 

I know He's gonna fix it for me 

I've got confidence 

God is going to see me through 

No matter what the case may be, I

 know He's gonna fix it for me 

 

Job was so sick now oh so long 'Til the flesh fell from his bones 

His wife, cattle, and children 

Everything that he had was gone 

Job in his despair 

Knew that God still cared 

Sleepless days and sleepless nights

 But Job said honey that's all right

Run the Race

By Michael L. Flemming  

Roadblocks. Mountains. Walls. 

Obstacles that keep us from the goals we desire to attain in this life. Were we to reach these obstacles and decide they were insurmountable, and the challenge too great, we would fail to reach our chosen destination. 

As it is with the natural being, so it is with the spiritual being. Stumbling blocks will arise in our life that will try to hinder us from reaching our spiritual potential. We are in the greatest race of all time, and our adversary does not want us to cross the finish line. 

We can take encouragement from the many events in the life of the Apostle Paul. He had many things rise against him to try to stop him from crossing the finish line. He did not allow those events to hinder his stride because he had the following mindset: Hebrews 12:1-2, “Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (KJV) 

 This paradigm served Paul well! The Bible records some of Paul’s obstacles in 2 Corinthians 11:24-27, “Of the Jews five times received I forty stripes save one. Thrice was I beaten with rods, once was I stoned, thrice I suffered shipwreck, a night and a day I have been in the deep; In journeyings often, in perils of waters, in perils of robbers, in perils by mine own countrymen, in perils by the heathen, in perils in the city, in perils in the wilderness, in perils in the sea, in perils among false brethren; In weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst, in fastings often, in cold and nakedness.” (KJV) 

Through all of this, Paul remained true to his Master. Child of God, stand fast – Paul did! The Word of God records the following words, spoken near the end of his life, in 2 Timothy 4:7-8, “I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.” (KJV) 

Paul made a profession through those powerful words that still stands in the hour in which we live! Hold fast, for our reward shall come! The Apostle put it this way in Galatians 6:9, “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” (KJV) Run the race to win!  

I Have Decided  

I have decided to follow Jesus, I have decided to follow Jesus; 

I have decided to follow Jesus; No turning back, no turning back.

Though I may wonder, I still will follow 

Though I may wonder, I still will follow; 

Though I may wonder, I still will follow: 

No turning back, no turning back. 

The world behind me, the cross before me; 

The world behind me, the cross before me; 

The world behind me, the cross before me;

 No turning back, no turning back. 

Though none go with me, still I will follow; 

Though none go with me, still I will follow; 

Though none go with me, still I will follow; 

No turning back, no turning back. 

 

Will you decide now to follow Jesus? 

Will you decide now to follow Jesus? 

Will you decide now to follow Jesus? 

No turning back, no turning back.

He is Able to Deliver Thee

‘Tis the grandest theme through the ages rung; 

’Tis the grandest theme for a mortal tongue; 

’Tis the grandest theme that the world e’er sung, 

“Our God is able to deliver thee.”

 

He is able to deliver thee, He is able to deliver thee; 

Though by sin oppressed, go to Him for rest; 

“Our God is able to deliver thee.”

’Tis the grandest theme in the earth or main; 

’Tis the grandest theme for a mortal strain; 

’Tis the grandest theme, tell the world again, 

“Our God is able to deliver thee.”

 

’Tis the grandest theme, let the tidings roll, 

To the guilty heart, to the sinful soul; 

Look to God in faith, He will make thee whole,

 “Our God is able to deliver thee.”

Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. And it came to pass in process of time, that the king of Egypt died: and the children of Israel sighed by reason of the bondage, and they cried, and their cry came up unto God by reason of the bondage.  

He is Able

A cursory reading of these verses might give a person the impression that God was just sitting on His throne, twiddling His fingers, and waiting for Israel to do something. But God had already begun to act. He had ensured that Moses would live through the slaughter of the Israelite children. He had directed the little ark into the hands of the Pharaoh's daughter. He had ensured that Moses would receive the benefit of a tremendous education, the best kind of secular education that one could receive at that time. He had put thoughts in Moses' mind that he could be Israel's deliverer. He had spared Moses' life when the Pharaoh tried to take it. He had prompted Moses to flee the land and led him into the wilderness to the family of Jethro. He had given Moses the time and the opportunity to continue his preparation for leading His people out of Egypt.

Who initiated all this? Certainly not the children of Israel! God did! We find all the way back in the book of Genesis that God had already prophesied that in about 400 years, he would move to bring the children of Abraham out of a captivity, which He also arranged. Could God—who does not change, who sets patterns in His Word so that we will understand—ensure, long before we were born, that there would be a way prepared for his people at the end time? We know very well He could—and did.

How did Israel get out of Egypt? Not through any rebellion, revolution, intelligence, or negotiations on their part. They got out because God wanted them out. It was part of His purpose. Author Unknown

Sunshine

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There is sunshine in my soul today, 

More glorious and bright 

Than glows in any earthly sky, 

For Jesus is my Light. 

 

O there’s sunshine, blessèd sunshine, 

When the peaceful, happy moments roll; 

When Jesus shows His smiling face, 

There is sunshine in the soul. 

 

There is music in my soul today, 

A carol to my King, 

And Jesus, listening, can hear 

The songs I cannot sing. 

 

There is springtime in my soul today, 

For, when the Lord is near, 

The dove of peace sings in my heart, 

The flowers of grace appear. 

 

There is gladness in my soul today, 

And hope and praise and love, 

For blessings which He gives me now, 

For joys “laid up” above.
