Belong

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

There was a time I only knew
This homeless world my only view
Now touched by love completely new
Eternal home I found in You/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

Your loving gaze upon the earth
Seeking those whose hearts brand new
Turning from our works to You
Spirit, soul and body due/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due

Triumphant One

O sweet victory, you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong/

Barren fields now filled with fruit
Everlasting faith in You
O Restorer of my soul
Lord of life, abundance flow/

Sovereign One who searches out
Those whose hearts are Yours contrite
Brings to triumph with a shout
Angel armies our victory delight/

O sweet victory you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!/

So loved the world that He created

Yearned to redeem us from the pit

Gave His only Son begotten

We are new creatures alive in Him!/

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!/

Life everlasting in His Presence

Born again to reign with Him

Left behind a world of sorrow

Jesus Christ is now my Friend!/

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!

I Am Yours, You Are Mine

I am Yours, You are mine

This life I live, be glorified

Each breath I take in Thee I find,

I am Yours, You are mine//

God in me, my life not mine

Your Word in me, new life divine

My God, the Word, Jesus I find

Christ the Lord who saved mankind!//

My need for Thee, O Mighty God!

To lead me through this life abroad

Triumphant path for those who cling

Forever more to Jesus, King//

I am Yours, You are mine

This life I live, be glorified

Each breath I take in Thee I find

I am Yours, You are mine

Yielded

Yielded

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your love over me

I am yielded and free

Come pour your life over me/

No one can take my life

I give it willingly

No one can make me see

Thy Spirit who dwells in me/

God in me, filling me

Jesus, Lord over me

Spirit, creating in me

New life, gifted in Thee (repeat)/

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your love over me

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your life over me/

Yielded, free in Thee

Oh Jesus, yielded in Thee

A New Song

dahlia-flower,google image

A New Song

A song of triumph, a song of might

A song of glory in His delight

A song of faith, sent from above

A song anew, His faithful love/

My journey filled with arrows sharp

Firm bow arms limber, my Father taught

Unaware of life, my training ground

Would yield such strength, a victor’s crown/

My journey long, the valleys deep

Sometimes lonely, often weak

My path was lit, His Word my light

His promise sure, His power my might/

The spoil before me, a great reward

To Him this triumph, to heavens roar!

His Way, His Truth, His Life we prove

The One Most Holy, The One Most True/

A song of triumph, a song of might

A song of glory in His delight

A song of faith sent from above

A song anew, His faithful love

Give My Life Away

Give My Life Away

Copyright 2012, Loretta J. Willis

Dreams of the life I wanted

Acclaim for the pursuits I deserved

Success from the road I traveled

My destiny clinched, a road alone/

Then life took over

Dreams forced into vapor uncontrolled

The price of incurable wounds

Success trampled the best of my soul/

Now alone with my Maker

This path brought me before

The God of success reached down and rescued me

Led me to His Fame forevermore/

Now I give my life away

His path I choose, His footsteps I follow

He is my dream, He is my fame

The acclaim I sought before

Now I Know

Now I Know

Copyright 2012, Loretta J. Willis

You gave me life, I took for granted

With every breath, my heart distanced

I took this gift, took the credit

My life used up for me

Your outstretched arms, Your mercy free

Your steadfast love, never ending

God in me, my life in Thee

Now I know, its God in me

You gave me life, I bow my knees

Surrendered now and always will be

I take this gift to Your glory be

Offered up in praise to Thee

Your outstretched arms, Your mercy free

Your steadfast love, never ending

God in me, my life in Thee

Now I know, its God in me

I Belong To You

I Belong To You

Copyright 2012, Loretta J. Willis

I belong to You

Let me come to You

With all my heart, with all my might

I belong to You

In my walk through this life

I became enticed with myself

Lost in the distraction of cares

Now in my walk through life

May I remain enticed with You

Abandoned in Your life

May I find my life in You

Commit to loving You

Submitting to Your loving care (repeat)

I belong to You

Let me come to You

With all my heart, with all my might

Lord, I belong to You
