more songs

Okay, here's some more to ponder. They're so good!

This song is so good! It's full of absolute Bible truth. So true of the dark stain of sin I hold, but so true, too, of my freedom from guilt and sin, all through the blood of my Saviour. There is no other way. It's only because of "His great love wherewith He loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us (made alive) together with Christ, (for by grace ye are saved)." (Eph. 2:4-5)

Free from Guilt and Free from Sin

Dark the stain I cannot hide
Stain of sin my guilt to prove
Guilt my own and foolish pride
Pride, the reason for my sin.

Light of God came shining down
Son of God, my soul to win,
Laid aside His Heavenly crown
Paid the price for all my sin.

















Wash me in the Savior's blood.
Make me pure without, within;
Cleanse my heart and set me free,
Free from guilt and free from sin.

Love of God that lights my way,
Love displayed on Calvary.
Lamb of God, my soul to save,
Gave His life to set me free.

Gone the darkness from the light,
Gone the night the day begins,
Gone the wrong, my soul made right.
Free from guilt and free from sin.

This next song is very special to me, and kind of sad. Actually it is very sad. It almost makes me cry when I hear it, because I just think about my brother, and I "want him over there." It reminds me to pray for him.

We Want You Over There

We are going home to glory soon
To see the city bright,
To walk the golden streets of Heav'n
and bask in God's own light.

But some of you are out of Christ
And held by many a snare
We cannot leave you lost and lone.
We want you over there.

The pearly gates are open wide
And we shall enter in
To knowthenceforth no tear or sigh,
No sorrow and no sin.

Oh come with us and come at once;
That land is bright and fair
We cannot leave you lost and lone.
We want you over there.

We come to tell the story true
Of love so rich and free.
The crucified and risen Lord
Has grace for you and me

Oh listen to His words of love
His messangers declare
We cannot leave you lost and lone
We want you over there.

We once were burdened sore with sin.
And dark were we and sad.
But Christ has washed us in His blood,
And He has made us glad.

Fly to His wounds, ye guilty ones,
His love and mercy share.
We cannot leave you lost and lone.
We want you over there.

We are going home to glory soon.
We want you over there.
