Jesus lived
And died
Resurrected
To the Father’s side

Living in me
So that I might be
A child of God
Alive and free

His love for me
Underscores my worth
A plan I can work
A life I can give

That will testify
Christ in me
Living out His victory
People count with Jesus

I will live each day
With light and life
My Lord gives me
The wisdom to be free

Grace to grow
His presence to know
That I am loved
And count with Him

The things I do
I do for Christ
No more fear
His love is here

God loves man
Made me by His hand
Giving what we need
Christ will make you free

All His thoughts for me
Come from eternity
Telling me of His love
My life was made above

He would never leave
I am His beloved
Reaching out to me
From His cross on Calvary

Jesus lives for me
He came to save my soul
And touch the life I live
With an eternal hold

He would never leave
I can claim His strength
To give me a life
Valuable to me

God is good to me
He is here for me
Helping me to be
A servant that lives free

God is my delight
Talking with Him day and night
I love Jesus Christ
He is life for me

Life is simple
It’s for me
I am birthed
To live for Thee

Knowing I am heaven sent
Sin destroys heaven’s scent
And life moves me away
Confusing and blinding
Robbing me of say
Pushing me to lose each day

I have life in Christ
He will be my guide
Creating a spiritual side
A relationship with God
Life was a blah
The present is for me
New life in Christ

Living as who I am
Right where I stand
Knowing my worth
The value in God’s plan
Seeing Christ work
In each and every day
Reminding me I have a say
The Lord is alive in me
Christ walks with me
The Lord will bless each day

I can claim Christ’s help
His Word to me is good
Birthed to have His wealth
I live by His life in me
Knowing I am His
Life is simple
The Lord loves me and gives

Everywhere I look
Are things I want to do
All those things I shouldn’t
Seek to conquer and rule

Sadly I agree
Sinning again
Wanting my way
Knowing I will pay the price

Heartache and trouble
Fear and strife
Mortgaging my future
Bankrupt by my past

The moment comes
I seize my way
Ignoring Christ
I’ll get help another day

Sin is serious
It destroys me
I’m alone
Fellowship with Christ gone

Forgive me Lord
My heart felt plea
Jesus help me
Make me free

Free of those chains
That weigh so much
Making me weak
Even my head hurts

Come Christ says
Change your ways
Let me lead
Through life’s byways

I followed Him
My sin was gone
Today is life
I’m not alone

1 Samuel 6:20a “Who is able to stand in the presence of the LORD, this holy God?” they cried out.

Questions can lead us to the truth or cause us to drop off into despair. Who indeed can lead us into the presence of God? Too many people spend their entire lives seeking to justify themselves to God. Man cannot justify himself. The Bible tells us that all have sinned (Romans 3:23) but God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners (Romans 5:8). Therefore anyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved (Romans 10:13).

Good news for a troubled world. In Christ we can come to the Lord. Your life is important to Jesus.

WHO

Troubled world
Struggling hearts
Hurting souls
Do I count?

What is this?
The life I lead
Am I strong?
Can I live?

All around
Others rejoice
I seek the Lord
But problems seek me

Stop your worry
Spend you time
Sitting with Jesus
He will refine

The life you lead
Counts with Christ
Your soul is His
Claim paradise

Perspective is strong
See your strength
Each day you live
Is victory

The Lord is here
He is fighting for you
Stand real close
Christ is using you

I can make a difference
In Some one’s life
Simply share my Jesus
And how He battles strife

Speak about the comfort
He brings each day
Reaching into my troubles
Taking pain away

Show the way He loves me
By loving those I meet
They are precious people
Christ makes me complete

I can change the failure
All of us feel
If I will listen carefully
Letting Christ have my hand

All of my troubles
Are made to be used
Letting Jesus lead me
Refusing the world’s abuse

Everyday with Jesus
Every hour with Christ
He will give me wisdom
To face the moments strife

I can speak forgiveness
I can give what I have
Life will be like heaven
As I let Jesus control my life

People count with Jesus
He wants me to go
Tell all I know
The Lord loves them so

Ask Jesus into your heart
Ask Him to forgive your sin
Bend your knee and let Him
Give His life to you

Everyday is a choice
Actions abound
What would Jesus do?
Is how I travel around

It may not seem like victory
To bend the knee to Christ
But every moment’s victor
Will come from life in Christ

How and what and when
Gives wisdom when we plea
Lord I need your guidance
I want your plan for me

Jesus is the resource
I must have for life
Wisdom guides my footsteps
Christ is all to me

And then the times I’m blinded
By the future’s active role
I can stand this moment
Christ will make me whole

Now I live forever
One day I will change
Christ will take me to the Father
I have salvation in Jesus name

Jesus knows your heart
The pain you’ve caused
The evil things you’ve done
Lusting after number one

Jesus died for you
Giving His life
To save you
So you could live for Him

Being in His presence
Gives us all we need
Jesus guides my living
By living in me

All of God’s resources
Come to me in Christ
Equipping me for living
Giving me His life

All the sin I’ve committed
Christ paid each and all
No more war to bother
Christ forgives me

Every breath I take
Every move I make
All that I am
Christ gives me His plan

A plan for value
An important goal
To live as Jesus brother
Serving those I know

All the lost need Jesus
Christ gave me some names
I go out to find them
Sharing in Jesus name

The world is an evil place
Demanding all you have
Stomping out your wishes
Ending all your dreams

Tough and unforgiving
Never on your side
Taking what you value
Death always abides

Every time you conquer
Failure returns
Reaching out its fingers
Demanding the victory you’ve won

Savoring the moment
We quickly feel the pain
An aging life brings
Time quickly flees

Looking back at moments
As though they were just now
Reliving in a second
All those years we’ve seen

I demand better
I will not quietly die
I want a life forever
Jesus tells me why

Stepping up to the moment
Seizing the life I see
The Lord is here to give me
All the love He has for me

Failure was my posture
Now victory is in me
Jesus lives to conquer
All the failure in me

Clay Corvin 9/18/04

Made by God
Stamped with Him
Sin destroyed our claim
Cast down to live in pain

Every moment
Counting down
Death our goal
Blind and wayward soul

Inside we hear
A voice that’s near
Claiming that we count
Valuable to the Lord

Straining to live
Striving to survive
Life is precious
Yet we die

Blind to life
A gift from God
Ordained in Christ
Jesus is life

Offering us eternity
Perspective of God
Able to see
Life’s value given me

The gift is at hand
All I do is ask
Christ will give
The very thing I seek

Worth and wisdom
A guide to direct
A friend to hear
Jesus gives me life
