His Great Love For Me

His Great Love For Me

 I don’t know why He loves me but He does
 I don’t know why He cares, but He cares
 I don’t know why He heals but He heals
 I don’t know why His plans He reveals
  
 I don’t know why He saved me but He did
 I don’t know why He died, but He lives
 I don’t know why He came to this earth
 I don’t know why he gave me new birth
  
 It’s His love for me, that came down for me
 From that heavenly home to set me free
 It’s His sacrifice on that lonely tree
 That showed His great love for me
  
 I don’t know what he gives me this great hope
 Or why he gave me peace so I could cope
 I don’t know why His joy has filled my soul
 His mercy is a thrill to behold
  
 He took the stripes and He took the scars
 The crown of thorns and the wounded heart
 He took the nails in His hands and feet
 All for me.  All for me
  
 It’s His love for me, that came down for me
 From that heavenly home to set me free
 It’s His sacrifice on that lonely tree
 That showed His great love for me
He Wants No Less

Trust In His Love

 I can’t imagine why He’d save me
 Why He’d take my cross to set me free
 I can’t imagine why He’d take my stripes
 Why He’d bear those thorns for me
  
 I can’t imagine why He’d leave His throne
 To be born in a manger with hay
 I can’t imagine why He’d take this time
 To walk with me each day
  
 But He does.  Oh, yes, He does
 He pours out His grace on me
 When I can’t imagine all that He does
 I trust in His love for me
  
 I can’t imagine that He’d hear my prayers
 Above all the noise of this world
 I can’t imagine why He’d forgive my sin
 Even though He is so holy
  
 He’s the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end
 He’s the bright and morning star and the Rose of Sharon
 He’s the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords
 He’s the way, the truth, the life and so much more
  
 Yet, He loves me.  Oh, yes, He does
 He pours out His grace on me
 When I can’t imagine all that he does
 I trust in His love for me
   

A Taste of Your Mercy

 You were mercy to me when I wandered
 Down the road of sin and despair
 I struggled just to survive a life
 That was desperately needing a prayer
  
 You were mercy to me when I looked up
 From the pit I was drowning in
 My heart barely knew how to cry out
 Yet you heard from the depth of my sin
  
 Then you saved me
 Reached out and held me
 Wrapped your arms around this soul of mine
 It was then you gave me
 A taste of your mercy
 I will forever praise your name
  
 You were mercy to me when I looked back
 And I longed for the ways of my past
 You showed me your way was much brighter
 You showed me your mercy will last
  
 Your mercy took my guilt. Your mercy took my shame.
 Your mercy took my scars. Your mercy took my pain.
 Your mercy took my sin and washed it all away
 Now your mercy gives me life eternally
  
 You saved me
 Reached out and held me
 Wrapped your arms around this soul of mine
 It was then you gave me
 A taste of your mercy
 I will forever praise your name
 I will forever praise your name
 The name of Jesus 

Grace Plus Faith

 It’s a simple equation all can do
 The oldest in age and the youngest too
 Anyone who can think
 Or can learn anything
 Can trust that the answer was given to you
  
 First came the Father, who out of His love
 Sent His only Son and said it was enough
 I’ll show them my grace
 When He takes their place
 The sins of the world will go down to the grave
  
 All they need to do is add their little faith
 That they would believe that He died in their place
 As they turn from there sin
 And ask Him to come in
 My grace and their faith will lead them to be saved
  
 Grace plus faith is the answer to life’s biggest tests
 Grace plus faith in the midst of your storms will bring rest
 Grace plus faith will turn your sorrow to joy
 Grace plus faith will heaven’s armies employ
 As you come to the Father, He will pour out His grace
 And you will be saved adding your little faith
  
 Don’t delay, do not wait.
 Come to Jesus today
 Learn the equation grace plus faith
 Simple and yet profound for all time
 I hope that you’ll hearken to the simple rhyme
 Trust in His grace today
 Add faith and you will be saved 
Your Mercy

Your Mercy

 I seek your mercy, Lord
 All that is within me needs your mercy, Lord
 I seek your mercy, Lord
 A heart that wanders from you longs for mercy, Lord
 Let mercy bring new life to me
  
 You move the mountains
 You calm the sea
 Sit on the throne in majesty
 Why do you think of me?
 Why do you care for me?
 Why did you die for me?
 Out of mercy, Your mercy.
  
 Come fill my soul with peace.
 Come now and rescue me
 Come bring new life to me
 By your mercy, your mercy
