Good bye Israel our journey was so good
Walking, talking, touring in God’s neighborhood

Day by day we read God’s Word we saw it on display
Everywhere we looked His Word was seen in 3-D

Faith was listed by Your hand Working through many men
Some we called the prophets including Moses and Abraham

Recounting works and actions at least four thousand years
Joy leaps and people seek To know Your blessing here

Goodbye Israel each moment stored in me
For using in my life and faith and live Jesus showed

Barren desert arid land
Water needed to farm and stand
Wisdom found to stretch their stock
So little water creates a lot

Buildings built for living here
Negev is their place to honor God and claim their fate
Hardy souls testing life
Sacrifice great but here they toil

A land of milk and honey given from God’s hand
The desert is not easy it always challenges man
Moses came this way now faith is on display
People come with hope and prayers from a promise made by God

Peace proclaimed In Jesus name
We crave the calm His heart we seek

Lifting hands to heaven Bending low to weep
This land of pain and sorrow Suffers at Jesus feet

Life and strength offered To face the deepest hurt
But people dead in sin and strife Have ears that have not heard

My actions must proclaim Him Christ is life and light
Reaching out to people He calls me to sacrifice

Give with celebration The lost need what we have
They will see my Jesus If His life my life declares

Do not faint through failure Our flesh is weak with fear
Proclaim His love with all you do Jesus Christ is here with you

Let Him have your minutes Give Him all of your mind
Hands and feet proclaiming He gave His life for mine

Together we stand in Christ
On our own we will not survive
Because we need a guide to help us behave
More like Jesus everyday

People count we make it so
Remembering the value Christ gives our soul
I am responsible for how I live It’s what I do that counts
The key is to be Yielded in service to Christ

Glorifying Jesus is my life It fills my vacant life
Making all I do and say Important in my life each day
Instilling hope in the life I live Knowing soon I’ll see
Jesus standing before me Well done my friend Well done

Wisdom comes from knowing Christ The Word begins the way
Experiencing truth is critical I let Him control each day
Pointing out my sin Each error on my way
Then I will change Walking HIS way this day

Glorifying Jesus is my life I talk to all I meet
Best with hands and feet Becoming more like Christ
Jesus is the focus of my life Telling His story by sacrifice
Living a life like His Setting aside my claims I live in Jesus name

I am me Each of us will be Where and what we are
That is more than great That in Christ is all we need
His gift forgiving me for eternity bringing me into His family
Changing the world through me As I live in reality Jesus is glorified

Joyful living andhow can it be? Where I’m living I must be set free
All around are trips and traps- How can I deal with circumstance?

Jesus lives in me- Christ sets me free- Only Christ could possibly
Face the world that troubles me- every time I choose I lose

Remember when- I swore I would change- this sin would go
Yet here I stand in sin again- why is all this sin having strength over me?

I know it’s possible- I know it’s meant for me- help me I plea
Focus, focus, focus is the key- Jesus is alive in me

Struggles always win- I bend my knee to Him- Jesus works in me
Facing life in my body- using hands, feet and mouth- Manifesting His life in me

Magnify Jesus- My soul declares- All my strength is Him
Conspicuous love and joy- breaking out of me-magnify Jesus in me

Even in the midst of unfairness- I do not panic or flee- every day His grace is new
Taking all the things I do- working out my life for me- every moment victory

Holy Spirit filling me with Jesus- ahead of my need- knowing me
Impossible circumstances- healing salve applied- Jesus knows me

Alive is Christ and dead with Christ is gain- whatever it will be
I claim Jesus- every minute ever day- Magnifying Jesus in me

Who am I? I feel so alone— rejection is my home
I cry to youexpecting you to say?
I’m the one that lives my life
It happens every day
Better to have lived and tried
Than whine I just can’t do

What am I that I should claim
This painful heart and broken name
Oh, I was medicating pain
Now my confidence flew
I’m sad and feeling blue
Jesus I thought I knew You

“Stop and hear the Lord declares
I made you for My joy and blessed your earthly form
I’m giving you a chance to claim
All that you need in Jesus name
Stand and be My child
I will grow your faith”

Everything you see is Mine
I’m never lost or confused
I will be your guide—reminding you I care
All you do is bend your knee
Claim your life in Christ
I will listen and give you advice

Now my heart is filled with joy—No longer am I blue
Jesus cleansed my soul
He put a heart in me
Now I am free and know what I’ll be
A servant of the Lord—proclaiming Christ has come
All can have God’s peace—He loves you and me
Clay Corvin

Blue to do– I hold at bay—not by my own strength
I turn to Christ and claim my life—Jesus saved my soul
And walks with me along life’s way and every moment, every day
I have His joy in me—Evil will have to flee—Jesus lives in me

Today I felt as if I could—the joy overflowed
And then the world in all it’s woe—dumped a load on me
Stop I said —In Jesus name—there is no harbor here
My life is very dear— every moment counts—Joy overflows

In Christ the war is done—the victory has been won
Each day a new found peace—victory everywhere Christ walks
He talks His steps in me—No child of vanity—as I sit at Jesus knee
Life is new in me—Jesus is God’s way—Hallelujah everyday

I sit today and think of You—You’ve filled my heart and stopped the blue
Agonizing in the dark—which way and why will not deny
That life is rough and tough—declaring a negative worth
Reach out my heart and seek His way—Jesus I love you

Life is time and time is quick—what can I do to make it stick
Claiming days that waft away—my heart is blue and I love You
Even when the way is hard—I grow and feel Your hand divine
Remember me my Lord—Your gift of life is all I have and I am Yours

Speak to me in words that live—I have only me to give and that is not so much
You died for me and gave me gifts—Evil seeks to grab those gifts
I know they are meant for me—I cannot decree or change what I have
Only if I lay it down and I know that isn’t me—Jesus set me free

So what is it that stalks my path? Not a word from Thee
It is my enemy —seeking how he can slay me
Joy and peace are gifts you give—Your children have a right
To claim this bit of life—Today I claim for me Your offered victory
