By Request, ‘Sitting at the Feet of Jesus’

I can’t remember who requested this, but whoever it was, thank you–Sitting at the Feet of Jesus, by the Gaither Vocal Band.

Listen to the lyrics: they’re Biblical. “He is all my righteousness.” This is the foundation of our hope, our assurance of salvation.

‘Cause if we had to generate our own righteousness, we’d none of us make it.

By Request, ‘The Name Above All Names’

Hot dog, there’s no such evil news out there today, I don’t know where to begin. Maybe I won’t begin at all.

In the meantime, let us fortify ourselves with worship: the things that dismay and frighten us only make God laugh, before He puffs them away with one breath of His nostrils. The day of the wicked will last not one second longer than He has already ordained.

So here, requested by Erlene, is Chuck Girard with The Name Above All Names.

By Request, ‘Voice of Truth’

You might want to turn up the volume on this one–Voice of Truth, performed by Casting Crowns. Requested by Allison.

Good advice here: listen to, and believe, the voice of truth. Not the voice of this fallen world, but that of God’s word and of His Holy Spirit.

By Request, ‘Tongues of Fire’

Erlene asked for this one, so here it is–Tongues of Fire, performed by Chuck Girard.

Do we not hunger and thirst for communion with the Holy Spirit? Especially in this evil age.

O Lord Our Father, do as thou has said! Pour out thy spirit upon all flesh–and let the Mountain of the Lord arise.

By Request, ‘Look for Me at Jesus’ Feet’

Another one from Erlene–Look for Me at Jesus’ Feet, sung by the Booth Brothers.

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord!

By Request, ‘Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus’

Sweet and gentle, soothing to the soul–Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus, performed by Alan Jackson. Thank you, Erlene, for suggesting it.

The rest of you–well, hey, the hymn shop’s always open. See your favorite hymns posted here: all you have to do is ask.

‘Victory of the Cross’

Sing it loud and sing it long! This is Jonathan Lewis with Victory of the Cross.

Take it out from behind the pews and into the street, fight for the Cross of Jesus Christ–remembering at all times that our weapons are spiritual, not carnal, for pulling down the strongholds of the Enemy.

By Request, ‘How Great Is Our God’

Generally I don’t go in for guitars and keyboards and drums; but this performance of How Great Is Our God, by Chris Tomlin, makes me want to dance in the aisles–and I don’t know how to dance, and I don’t have any aisles handy. Anyhow, you might want to turn up the volume on this one and do a little jumping around yourself. Thanks so much for the request, Linda! Just what I need this morning.

Now it’s off to the nursing home to see my aunt. The unedifying news of the day will just have to wait till I get back.

By Request, ‘A Moment of Time’

I’m a little early today because I’ve got a lot to do–but first a worship song, nominated by Erlene: A Moment of Time, performed by Carroll Roberson.

By Request, ‘Grace’

I decided not to wait for tomorrow, after all, to post this worship song. There might be somebody out there who needs it. Like me.

So, at Linda’s request, here is Grace by Michael W. Smith.

Think about this. We are blind to God; but Jesus Christ gave sight to the blind. We are deaf to God’s word; but Jesus made the deaf to hear.

He still does these things. Just ask.
