There's a tree in my living room

and the season is in full bloom

within my heart.

Joyful giving is an art

but let's take a moment to reflect

on the Divine aspect

of this celebration.

the sacrificial lamb

in the humblest way

came down from Heaven.

Let us pray

CHORUS:

And thank the Lord

Let's thank the Lord

He's our savior

thank the Lord

E7

for God's favor

A

is His gift to us.

D               A

Thank You, Jesus.

VERSE 2:

There's a gift under the tree

and the tag says it's for me.

But, I don't know

what is in it, though.

But, I know the greatest gift ever

given lasts forever.

He gave us salvation

if only we will believe on Him,

the sacrificial lamb.

I heard Him say

We will live in Heaven

So, Let us pray

(REPEAT CHORUS 2x's)

Verse 1:

E

Kneeling before the throne,

E7

pleading to be shown

A

just a just a little bit of grace

B

a tiny bit of mercy.

E

Kneeling before the throne,

E7                       E

seeking Your face seeking Your face

A

with just a tiny bit of faith

A7                    A

within the heart of me.

Chorus:

A

sometimes my faith

D                    A

is the size of a mustard seed.

A                  E

But, You said that's all I need

Verse 2:

My Lord doth saith

just a little faith

will surely grow in his presence

For He's the living water.

My Lord doth saith

I will surely grow in his presence

I will surely grow in his presence

For He's the living water.

(Bridge/Tag):

E

(He's/You're) the living water

A

Who irrigates my heart

E7

and brings growth to

E

this tiny mustard seed.

(chorus 3x's, then Tag)

They said I was being hysterical,

when I told them about the miracle

You performed in my life.

Pain, sin, guilt were rife

in the stone I called a heart.

Your love made that stone

softer than a dog's squishy toy

and filled it with joy.

I no longer feel all alone.

The moment I knelt in surrender

before You and declared

“my selfish ways end here

for I am impaired

by my own sin.

Lord, I invite You in

make my heart Your temple,”

I was born anew. So simple,

it was, to come to You.

Yet, when I told them about this miracle,

They said I was being hysterical.

Thankful to the One Above

I am for the opportunity to bless others

whether it's through a kind word

or good deed that covers

someone's heart with Your love.

For any opportunity, Lord,

to serve You, I am thankful.

For this blesses my soul.

Adam, with him, he took us all

When he so stubbornly did fall.

But forgiveness can be

ours because of God's compassion.

Upon the cross, He bore our sin,

but the tomb is empty.

The Pure Lamb was sacrificed.

Taking on our sinfulness, Christ

paid for our sin so vile.

But His tomb became empty

on the third day. Now we can be

free of our sin so vile.

Heaven is now my home sweet home.

As a pilgrim I simply roam

this little blue sphere

fishing for souls fishing for souls.

I shall keep fishing for for souls

as long as I am here.

Because Christ was sacrificed.

Taking on our sinfulness, Christ

paid for our sin so vile.

But His tomb became empty

on the third day. Now we can be

free of our sin so vile.

In the midst of my heart's winter,
Your Holy love built a fire.
May I always remain in the center
ofYour divine will. Oh, how I enter
Your presence in faith, and winter
becomes spring and my life is renewed.
It is only by grace that You'd
grow faith in this humble garden
in this, my heart, that was once hardened.
It is only by grace that my faith is renewed.

By grace I may enter

His Holy presence.

His grace makes no sense

but by faith I enter

By grace I may enter.

Grace is the essence

His merciful love is intense.

He is salvation's inventor.

By grace I may enter

His Holy presence.

Into the Holy presence

of salvation's inventor,

By grace I may enter.

I can't tell where I'm going

Don't know where I've been

But I feel I'm moving quickly

And I guess that's all there is

I've gone round in my head

Side to side within

Reason had too much sense

Foolishness left me behind

Walking to a dirt-road crossroad

Guess I'll say hello

Whiskey from the heavens

Daniels in my veins

Traveling to hell on that southern gothic train

Baptized my humanity in the river

Left my soul with the morning star

Guess I've lost it all

They say that those with nothing left

Have nothing left to lose

Well hell, I'm far past that

With no future, and no past

Don't mess with me, son

Or my face will be your last

Whiskey's long gone now

But the moon's still shining bright

And there's heaven to gain

But hell to pay

The brass is still warm

But I'm cold as the grave

Without Christ

we are dead for

we are only half a man

Without Christ

we live in our own

immorality not thinking

much of it

Without Christ we are

asleep and continue to sin

and be slaves to demons

Without Christ, ultimately,

we shall burn forever and ever

in our own suffering

Without Christ we are lost sheep

led to the slaughterhouse
