Dearly Loved

I LOVE this song, you can listen to it on my "radio station" at the bottom of this blog

Dearly Loved

by Jimmy Needham

(Matthew 11:28)

Please lay down your arrows

For they're sure to pierce the skin,

And water from a broken well

Will make you thirst again.

When all things you've acquired

Are tested by the flames

And you can see them melting

Then will you call his name

It's worth it brothers

It's worth it friends

To know your Maker

To lose your sin

Did you know that you are dearly loved

To the slaughters you are being led

Being told that it's a party

That this God is in your head

And every single lie

Sounds just like the greatest truth

But the one truth you're not hearing

Is that he died for you

It's worth it brothers

It's worth it friends

To know your Maker

To lose your sin

Did you know that you are dearly loved

No greater joy

No greater peace

No greater love than this

No greater joy

No greater peace

No greater love

It's worth it brothers

And it's worth it friends

To know your Maker

To lose your sin

Did you know that you are dearly loved

And it's worth it brothers

And it's worth it friends

To know your maker

To lose your sin

Did you know that you are dearly loved

There is a Way
by Newworldson

You say love is just a word, just four letters in a row.

Just a thing that people say, or they never tell you so.

And you use every excuse, to let nobody in.

Now this cloud you bring around, has become your only friend.

And everybody saying that it's going to go away, but it don't go.

And everybody's telling you one day it's going to change,

but you don't know, if it's really going to end.

But there is a way, there is a spark,

there is a hope that you can hold on to.

There is a lifeline come to the rescue,

just like a hand that's waiting for you.

And if you believe in this I promise that you won't be alone.

There is a way, the truth and the life, and the way.

But if love became a man, if the word had flesh and bone.

Would you recognize His face, if He came to bring you home.

You think you're all alone, gotta do it on your own riding solo.

Is there someone you can call, when you stumble and fall?

Cause you don't know, if you'll be getting up again.

There is a way, there is a spark,

there is a hope that you can hold on to.

There is a lifeline come to the rescue,

just like a hand that's waiting for you.

And if you believe in this I promise that you won't be alone.

There is a way, the truth and the life, and the way.

Don't you think your life's worth saving?

Don't you know that love's amazing?

Don't you want to lay your troubles down?

Lay them down.

If I thought love was just a word, I might feel the same way too.

But there's so much more than that, and it's waiting here for you.

There is a way, there is a spark,

there is a hope that you can hold on to.

There is a lifeline come to the rescue,

just like a hand that's waiting for you.

And if you believe in this I promise that you won't be alone.

There is a way,

there is a way,

there is a way.
