the truth of this moment –
these witnesses testify –
Christ rose from the dead
and they believed...
 
help us to believe
for our faith is fickle,
make us to witness
to testify to life...
 
Christ is risen,
He is our Savior,
He is our living hope
in life and in death...
 
We are risen,
resurrected with Jesus,
We live already with Him
in the spiritual realm...
 
help us to believe
for our faith is fickle,
make us to witness
to testify to life...

speak this gospel
this eternal truth
show them Jesus
God’s living word...
 
listen to the Spirit
who gives us the words
to reveal God to them
in the knick of time...
 
all of us fail, to see,
to abide in Christ,
but God calls to us
while we walk in the world...
 
share what we know
what God has helped us to discern,
speak this gospel,
God’s holy word...

The Hour Had Come,
the minutes were racing
the pace accelerating
But Christ was at peace...
 
“Rise”, Jesus said to them,
“Let us go from this place”...
Destiny calls us –
I must drink of that cup...
 
Nothing overwhelmed Him,
He was in control –
God in the flesh, before them,
The great I Am...
 
Leaving that place,
heading to the Garden...
His betrayal at hand,
His Hour had come...

let Christ bring peace into your life

gather up your burdens, your sorrows,
your hurt, your guilt and your shame,
your struggles in this life
lay them down at the feet of Jesus Christ…
don’t hold them any longer
let Christ bring peace into your life,
our perfecter, the firstborn,
the exemplar of our faith…

Time is not linear,
Though that is how we live it;
Life is eternal,
The risen Savior,
Spoke to them
Before His death
Of what was to come.
 
The light was in the world,
The Spirit moving,
Before creation,
The Word alive, moving,
The light entered humanity,
As a baby boy,
Eternity entered time...
 
The One who said, “I am,
Before Abraham was”,
The Risen One is
Seated in Heaven,
Yet, He stands beside us,
Christ promises us Life,
In His Holy Name.

In the midst of our struggles,
In our trials, tribulations,
In our day-to-day living,
In the nights of our walk...
 
We must remember,
The promise of Jesus;
The final Victory has been won,
He has Overcome the world.
 
We must not be timid,
We must not be fearful;
Christ is the Victor,
Our risen Lord and Savior…
 
He is the Holy One,
Foretold in scripture;
Christ will soon come again,
In Power, in Victory…

In the midst of our struggles

In the midst of our struggles,
In trials, tribulations,
In our day to day living,
In the nights of our walk,
We must remember,
The promise of Jesus,
The final victory has been won,
He has overcome the world.
 
We must not be timid,
We must not be fearful,
Christ is the victor,
Our risen Lord and Savior,
He is the holy One,
Foretold in scripture,
Christ will come again,
In Power, in Victory…

In the midst of our struggles
 
Based on John 16:33
“I have told you these things,
so that in me you may have peace.
In this world you will have trouble.
But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

a foretaste of the loaves = v2

This woman’s faith
gathering the crumbs
below the table,
healing in her belief,
her daughter released
from her nagging affliction…
 
In His answer, blessing,
a foretaste of the loaves
of the banquet to come
the crumbs for the dogs
now the full meal, the bounty,
the wedding feast of the Lord

a miraculous feeding – v2

Christ displaying power,
a miraculous feeding,
as many as ten thousand fed
on the hillside that day
 
Five loaves and two fishes
fed an army, a people,
all could testify, could witness,
to Christ’s awesome power
