  • I Will Praise You

    A live performance by my friend Ginny Owens of a song from her (relatively) new album: I Have a Secret.

    This song just seems appropriate today, as some very close to me are experiencing serious life challenges.  But in each case, regardless of the immediate outcomes, I know they will be praising God.

  • In the Valley

    A beautiful song of prayer based on the title from Valley of Vision.  The music and arrangement are by Sovereign Grace Music.

  • Glorious Day!

  • Praise the King

  • In Christ Alone – Keith & Kristyn Getty

    In Christ alone my hope is found
    He is my light, my strength, my song
    This Cornerstone, this solid ground
    Firm through the fiercest drought and storm

    What heights of love, what depths of peace
    When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
    My Comforter, my All in All
    Here in the love of Christ I stand

    In Christ alone, who took on flesh
    Fullness of God in helpless Babe
    This gift of love and righteousness
    Scorned by the ones He came to save

    ‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
    The wrath of God was satisfied
    For every sin on Him was laid
    Here in the death of Christ I live

    There in the ground His body lay
    Light of the world by darkness slain
    Then bursting forth in glorious Day
    Up from the grave He rose again

    And as He stands in victory
    Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
    For I am His and He is mine
    Bought with the precious blood of Christ

    No guilt in life, no fear in death
    This is the power of Christ in me
    From a life’s first cry to final breath
    Jesus commands my destiny

    No power of hell, no scheme of man
    Could ever pluck me from His hand
    ‘Til He returns or calls me home
    Here in the power of Christ I stand

  • Power of the Cross

    Oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day:
    Christ on the road to Calvary.
    Tried by sinful men,
    Torn and beaten, then
    Nailed to a cross of wood.

    CHORUS:

    This, the pow’r of the cross:
    Christ became sin for us;
    Took the blame, bore the wrath—
    We stand forgiven at the cross.

    Oh, to see the pain written on your face,
    Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
    Ev’ry bitter thought, Ev’ry evil deed
    Crowning Your bloodstained brow.

    Now the daylight flees; Now the ground beneath
    Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
    Curtain torn in two, Dead are raised to life;
    “Finished!” the vict’ry cry.

    Oh, to see my name written in the wounds,
    For through Your suffering I am free.
    Death is crushed to death;
    Life is mine to live,
    Won through your selfless love.

    FINAL CHORUS:

    This, the pow’r of the cross:
    Son of God—slain for us.
    What a love! What a cost!
    We stand forgiven at the cross.

  • How Deep

    You were broken that I might be healed
    You were cast off that I might draw near
    You were thirsty that I might come drink
    Cried out in anguish that I might sing

    How deep is Your love
    How high and how wide is Your mercy
    How deep is Your grace
    Our hearts overflow with praise
    To You

    You knew darkness that I might know light
    Wept great tears that mine might be dried
    Stripped of glory that I might be clothed
    Crushed by Your Father to call me Your own
