Today More Than Yesterday



I want to say, "Good morning,"
I’ve come to say, "Good day,"
I’m here to say, "I love You,
Today more than yesterday."

I need Your love this morning,
I need Your light today,
I need Your voice to guide me,
Today more than yesterday.

If I don’t start my day with Your loving face,
If I run ahead in haste,
Then all that’s beautiful seems to slip away,
And I’m left with sorrow in its place.

So, I need Your gentle wisdom,
I need to see my way
I need the fog to vanish,
Today more than yesterday.

I feel Your love surround me,
I feel Your warmth today,
I feel Your arms around me
Today more than yesterday.

Each time I start my day with Your loving face,
When I lift my heart in praise,
Then all that’s beautiful seems to come my way,
And I find that gladness fills my day.

So, I need You here beside me,
I need Your kiss today,
I need Your voice inside me
Today more than yesterday.

Your love is like the breath of springtime
That warms the Earth & melts the snows,
Calling all life from its deep slumber
Out to the light & warmth of love,
and even so …

I must have Your love this morning,
I long for Your light today,
I need Your joy within me
Today more than yesterday,
Oh, way more than yesterday.
[I need You] today more than yesterday.

Always Trust In Jesus by Dale Schmucker



His daughter had died and all hope was gone
It seemed Jesus waited just a bit too long
But when it seemed that things had all gone wrong
Jesus went on and He gave them a song

Always trust in Jesus and He'll give you a song
Even when everything has all gone wrong
Just when it seems this time He's left you down
Always trust in Jesus and He'll give you a song

The winds and the waves were raging all around
Jesus was sleeping and the boat was going down
But when it seemed Jesus slept too long
OH He arose and He gave them a song

You look at your life and it's all broken down
You wonder why Jesus has waited so long
Keep trusting Him though everything seems wrong
Jesus will come and He'll give you a song

Blessings by Laura Story




We pray for blessings, we pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering

All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love us way too much to give us lesser things

chorus
Cause what if Your blessings come through raindrops?
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights
Are what it takes to know You’re near?

What if trials of this life
Are Your mercies in disguise?

We pray for wisdom, Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt Your goodness, we doubt Your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough

And all the while You hear each desperate plea
 
And long that we'd have faith to believe
(repeat chorus)

When friends betray us, when darkness seems to win
We know the pain reminds this heart
That this is not, this is not our home
It's not our home
(repeat chorus)

What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst
This world can’t satisfy?

And what if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are Your mercies in disguise?

With All I Am- Hillsong




Into Your hands I commit again.
With all I am, for You, Lord
You hold my world in the palm of Your hand
And I am Yours forever.

chorus
Jesus I believe in You
Jesus I belong to You
You’re the reason that I live
The reason that I sing with all I am.

I’ll walk with You wherever You go.
Through tears and joy, I’ll trust in You.
And I will live in all of Your ways
And Your promises, forever.

I will worship
I will worship You

The Mission by Jamie Rivera





There's a call going out across the land in every nation.
A call to those who swear allegiance to the cross of Christ.
A call to true humility, to live our lives responsibly
To deepen our devotion to the cross at any price.

Let us then be sober, moving only in the Spirit.
As aliens and strangers in a hostile foreign land.
The message we're proclaiming is repentance and forgiveness
The offer of salvation to a dying race of man

To love the Lord our God is the heartbeat of our mission.
The spring from which our service overflows.
Across the street or around the world
The mission's still the same.
"Proclaim and live the Truth i
n Jesus' name."

As a candle is consumed by the passion of the flame.
Spilling light unsparingly throughout a darkened room.
Let us burn to know Him deeper then our service flaming bright
Will radiate his passions and blaze with holy light

Within Your Hands by Jerry Paladino







I worship You, O Lord, my God, in heart, in mind, in spirit; 
I raise my heart to You in prayer, In praise, and in thanksgiving 
You are the Giver of all things and You are all things to me. 
By You I have life, I have love, I have my all.

What I am and what I will become is within Your hands, 
Is within Your loving hands; 
Oh, what I am and what I will become is within Your hands, 
Is within those loving hands I trust with all my being. 

I worship you, O Lord, with every fiber of my being.
I praise and bow before You now in humble sweet surrender. 
You are deserving of all praise for Your love cannot be measured.
By You I have life, I have love, I have my all 
 

I lay my heart before you now 
You stoop to love me as I am, With Love surpassing everything 
I am at your back and call for You are more than life to me, 
and of Your glory I will sing 
 

Ooo, within those loving hands
I trust with all my being.
[Your loving hands I trust with all my being.]

Magnificent by Jerry Paladino



It would take a thousand years to tell a thousandth of an instant in Your love.
The greatest words I can imagine
Just a fragment of a fraction of enough...
Yet my eyes look unto You, Not on the body of this death,
And in my weakness, Lord, I praise You with this frail and faltering breath.

You are magnificent, You are radiant,
You're indescribable in Your omnipotence
You’re are incredible, incomparable,
And my breathless soul shall whisper When all other words are spent:
You are Magnificent.

Can this human tongue so earthly and this heart that’s so unworthy
sing Your praise?
Yet I know You’re right here listening as my eyes with tears are glistening,
My hands are raised...
And the feeling is breathtaking as You lift me up to You, 
And the Spirit’s warm embracing
Electrifies Me through and through.

Now what else can I do but give My everything to You,
The One who gave Your everything to set me free.
And bright the fire burns within to worship You, My radiant King
Who reigns on Heaven’s throne eternally.

You are Magnificent.
Ohhh Magnificent
