There is a great mystery,

A wonderful story;
               F  Dm  
For ages 'twas hidden,
                 G  G7  
Now shown in His wisdom;
              C      
'Tis a divine romance
               Em      
Of God and man in time;
            F    Dm  
Beyond understanding,
                  G    G7  
Yet seen in God's speaking.

                 C        
God fell in love with man;
               Am      
For only God's love can

Forever, together,
             C                G  G7 
As living, insep'rable as one couple
       C  
Eternally.

Though He was rejected
By men who were blinded;
His love is constraining,
His heart still unchanging;
Thus in incarnation
Came He as salvation;
His name is called Jesus,
And He came to seek us.

God fell in love with man;
For only God’s love can
Make man just the same as He
In life and in nature.
We are His expression,
His bride, His enlargement;
Forever, together,
As living, insep’rable as one couple
Eternally.

Though born as a sinner,
His blood has redeemed me.
He suffered on Calv’ry,
Then raised up in glory,
To regenerate me.
Now joined in one spirit
I love to enjoy Him,
For I’ve been forgiven!

God fell in love with man;
For only God’s love can
Make man just the same as He
In life and in nature.
We are His expression,
His bride, His enlargement;
Forever, together,
As living, insep’rable as one couple
Eternally.

His love is so tender,
To Him I’ll surrender;
His name is so precious,
I gladly call, “Jesus!”
His Person’s so charming,
My heart ever winning;
I’ll hold back no longer,
I’ll love Him forever.

God fell in love with man;
For only God’s love can
Make man just the same as He
In life and in nature.
We are His expression,

We, like Peter, all have stumbled,
Such defeats make our strength crumble,
Our once proud hearts become humble,
We are so low,
In these moments the Lord comes in,
Seeking our love and affection,
As we listen, we can hear Him
Saying to us...

3
In these days the Lord is hindered
Because of a lack of shepherds
Who dispense the milk of the Word
To the lost sheep,
He needs man’s cooperation,
To let Him shepherd from within,
Will you be one who is open
And say to Him...

  Lord, I love You! I'll feed Your lambs,
  Lord I love You! I'll shepherd Your sheep,
  Lord I love You!
  I'll give Your sheep something to eat.

Feeding on the husks around me,
Till my strength was almost gone,
Longed my soul for something better,
Only still to hunger on.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

Poor I was, and sought for riches,
Something that would satisfy,
But the dust I gathered round me
Only mocked my soul’s sad cry.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

Well of water, ever springing,
Bread of life, so rich and free,
Untold wealth that never faileth,
My Redeemer is to me.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

We have come to God’s chosen place;
It is here that we see His face.

Once you’re here you’ll not be the same.

Hallelujah! We’ve lost our choice,
Since the day that we heard His voice.
Deep within we heard the “Amen.”

Moses was a person who was called by God,
He was meant to turn the age;
He was God’s companion, he was for God’s move,
He was faithful, meek, and sage.

Samuel ministered to be a God-pleasing priest,
He was absolute for Him;
Samuel gave himself to be a Nazarite,
Saved from death, the world, and sin.

Daniel had companions, and they ate God’s Word,
From the world, they stood apart;
Through a praying spirit were aligned with God,
For His people, God’s own heart.

I will choose to be a living overcomer,
Be a person not ashamed to be a Jesus lover,
One who eats the tree of life,
And drinks the living water.
I will give myself to be an overcomer,
To see a heav’nly vision,
Keep my flaming spirit burning!
I give myself to You, to turn this age.

Our witness to defy.

How happy when the Lord we see
And all our sighing’s done!

Who then will forward go
Strong in His mighty power?
Who then will firmly trust the Lord
Until the vict’ry hour;
Till with the conqu’rors blest,
The triumph song’s begun?
That man will then rejoice to hear,
Behold, I quickly come!

Who then will choose God’s best,
And take the narrow track,
Though passing thru the wildest storms,
Yet never turning back?
Who now will dare press on,
Enduring pain and fear?
All such will then rejoice to see
Jesus, the Lord, is near!

Though deep the darkness be
We still would onward go,
Till we the day of rapture greet
And glory ’round shall glow.
’Tis there we’ll see the Lord,
And Satan overcome;
The overcomers will rejoice,
Jesus, the Lord, has come!

By loving you, making home in you,
Just love your Lord with all your heart,

A sweet relationship.             
Lord, daily change my inward being
Lord, all my heart possessing
In all my being—transforming
To be Your bride and queen.

In Your love I’m drawn,
To You I belong;
I am not my own, Lord,
I’m Yours alone.

By Your love I’m drawn,
In Your name I’m charmed,
And Your Person captured me,
For I’ve been kissed by Thee.

After breakfast on the seashore,
      Dm7  C       G      
Jesus set about to restore
        Dm7        C        G         
Peter's love, that he would henceforth
Not trust himself,
      C      G        C        
He committed some big failures,
            Dm7 C       G      
Three times denying the Savior,
         Dm7    C      G     
Then leading others to waver,
Yet Jesus said...

       Am   F           G     
Do you love me? Feed my lambs,
       Am   F            C  G     
Do you love me? Shepherd my sheep,
F  E7  Am   F  
Do you love me?
     C       G                  C   
Then give My sheep something to eat.

We, like Peter, all have stumbled,
Such defeats make our strength crumble,
Our once proud hearts become humble,
We are so low,
In these moments the Lord comes in,
Seeking our love and affection,
As we listen, we can hear Him
Saying to us...

In these days the Lord is hindered
Because of a lack of shepherds
Who dispense the milk of the Word
To the lost sheep,
He needs man’s cooperation,
To let Him shepherd from within,
Will you be one who is open
And say to Him...

Lord, I love You! I’ll feed Your lambs,
Lord I love You! I’ll shepherd Your sheep,
Lord I love You!
I’ll give Your sheep something to eat.

#"From my youth I have sought to know how to live the Christian life, how to be holy, and how to be victorious. I have read many Christian publications on this subject. Eventually, I found out that not one of the ways presented in these books was really prevailing. According to my own experience, only the way of remembering that He is within us really works. The problem we have is that we often forget that He is within us. During our daily life, we just do not remember that the Lord as another One is with us. But when we do remember and realize that He is within us, everything is okay."

Leave hungers that won’t pass away,
My blessed Lord will come and save you
If you kneel to Him and humbly pray—

Fill my cup, Lord;

Come and quench this thirsting of my soul.

      D                         
Well, while down here you travel
You may never have a lot of silver and a lot of gold
Trouble overtake you,
Your friends, they may forsake you
And leave you here to weep alone
But we call on Jesus
We know that He sees us in our every trying hour
From the windows up above,
He sends down His love
And He keeps us with His Heavenly power

Now don't you be a doubter
Come on and be a shouter
Take hold of the Master's hand
Because His love is wider
And is higher than the sky or anything made by man
And though trouble ay depress you
His love will caress you
Throw your heavy burdens all away
With loving arms, He will strengthen
Long suffering He will lengthen
Now, to keep you till the judgment day

From my spirit within flows a fountain of life

At Your coming may life be my crown.

In the fresh, tender grass Jesus makes me lie down;
He leads me by waters of rest;
No more struggle and strain; all self-effort is vain;
In the flow I am perfectly blessed.

Lord, I treasure the sweet flow of life,
And my soul-life at last I lay down;
O Lord, deepen the pure flow of life;
At Your coming may life be my crown.

Jesus called me one day to the Holiest Place,
To live in His presence divine;
Hallelujah, I’ve heard an encouraging word:
“Abide—you’re a branch in the vine.”

Lord, I treasure the sweet flow of life,
And my soul-life at last I lay down;
O Lord, deepen the pure flow of life;
At Your coming may life be my crown.

Dying to the flesh and soul-life.
Living by the mingled spirit,
Natural man we will deny.
Now we’re living in the Body,
Every day we’re overcoming,
Striving for the peak of Zion,
Watching for our Lord’s appearing.

There's always been something hidden deep in Your heart,
    D     Bm        Em            A       
Yet I had not given it one single thought,

  D       F♯m G                 A7          D     
Until one day You revealed Your dream in my heart.

Your heart’s desire is with man to mingle as one,
To dwell with man, an eternal bond to form,
’Twas for this dream You became man, uplifting man,
That God and man, heaven and earth, be joined for aye,
God’s house, heav’n’s gate, now descends, Your dream to attain.

From heav’n You came as my bread of eternal life,
By eating You, I can now enjoy Your life,
Brought to His house, the Father’s love for You is mine,
I’m joined, a branch, to You, the vine—union divine,
By bearing fruit, this relationship multiplies.

Abide in love, so His life in us may flow free,
By mutual love, His disciples we will be;
The more we’re joined, the more we’re built organically,
And by His word we’re sanctified, not of the world,
As one new man, corporate God-man living we’ll see.

O Lord, I place myself on the altar for You,
For Your desire, that Your dream may become true.
As for my life, I’d gladly dwell in a lowly tent,
To be a drink off’ring outpoured for man
God’s pillar, stand to fulfill God’s eternal plan.

Not a sense of right or duty,
But the sight of peerless worth.

4
Not the crushing of those idols,
With its bitter void and smart;
But the beaming of His beauty,
The unveiling of His heart.

5
Who extinguishes their taper
Till they hail the rising sun?
Who discards the garb of winter
Till the summer has begun?

6
'Tis the look that melted Peter,
'Tis that face that Stephen saw,
'Tis that heart that wept with Mary,
Can alone from idols draw:

7
Draw and win and fill completely,
Till the cup o'erflow the brim;
What have we to do with idols
Who have companied with Him?

When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed ere the day is half-done,
When we reach the end of our hoarded resources,
Our Father’s full giving is only begun.

His love has no limit, His grace has no measure,
His power no boundary known unto men,
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus,
He giveth and giveth and giveth again.

He chose to be humbled,
He chose limitation,
He chose to be finite,
He chose to be man.
God’s unfathomed purpose
Found substance in Jesus!
A two-natured being—
The unique God-man.

His own shell was broken
Releasing His glory,
This life impartation
Produced many grains.
The Firstborn rejoices
With His many brothers—
An incorporation
Divine and human!

We cannot but love Him!
Our lovely Forerunner;
His shame was our vict’ry,
His anguish our joy.
The children of judgment
He brought into glory,
The millions of God-men
Forever rejoice!

So personal and affectionate,

Weak is the effort of our heart,
And cold our warmest thought;

We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
We’ll praise Thee as we ought,
But when we see Thee as Thou art,

One with Thee in Thine ascension,
In the heavens now with Thee;
Here a pilgrim and a stranger,
My true life is hid in Thee.

One with Thee, one with Thee,
One with Thee, one with Thee;
Day by day I share Thy riches,

One with Thee in Thine enthronement,
Sharing Thine authority,
Even as I share Thy life, Lord,

Tell me where you have laid Him
And I’ll carry Him away, I’ll carry Him away.

And then I heard a voice say, “Mary.”
That sweetest voice that penetrated me.
It is the voice of my Beloved,
Jesus, my Love.

I have found my Jesus!
I have found my Beloved!
I have found Whom my soul doth love,
Jesus, my love, I just love You!

But Jesus told me not to touch Him yet.
He must ascend first to the Father
And to My Father and your Father

Go and tell My brothers,

And my garments are whiter than snow.

And in Him I am perfectly whole.

Can never discover or buy.
But the secret my Lord hath revealed
In the fountain that flows from His side,
In the stripes by whose pain we are healed,
In Himself as He comes to abide.

Oh, come to the Fountain of Life,

Oh, drink of the boundless supply,
For Christ is the Fountain of Life.

I have come to the Fountain of Joy;
His joy is the strength of my heart.
My delight is unmixed with alloy,
My sunshine can never depart.
The fig tree may wither and die,
Earth’s pleasures and prospects decline;
But my fountains can never be dry—
My portion, my joy is divine.

Oh, come to the Fountain of Life,
The fountain that never runs dry;
Oh, drink of the boundless supply,
For Christ is the Fountain of Life.

The One in whom my heart delighteth.

Thy love, Lord Jesus,
Is sweeter than wine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine,
And Thy fragrance of ointments
My heart doth entwine.
A fount in gardens,
A well of living waters,
Which streams and flows from Lebanon’s mountains.

O come Beloved,
On my garden blow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow,
That the odor of spices
May break forth and flow.
My spouse, My sister,
I’m come into My garden
To feast upon wine, milk and honey.

Set me, Lord Jesus,
As seal on Thine heart;
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death,
Jealousy’s cruel as Sheol,
And love’s strong as death.
Much water cannot
Quench love, nor do floods drown it.
All man could give for love is contemned.

Days may be coming fraught with loss and change,
New scenes surround my life and fancies strange;
I thank Thee that no day can ever break,
Savior, when Thou wilt leave me or forsake.

There may be days of darkness and distress,
When sin has power to tempt, and care to press,
Yet in the darkest day I will not fear,
For, ’mid the shadows, Thou wilt still be near.

Days there may be of joy and deep delight,
When earth seems fairest, and her skies most bright,
Then draw me closer to Thee, lest I rest
Elsewhere, my Savior, than upon Thy breast.

And all the other days that make my life,
Marked by no special joy or grief or strife,
Days filled with quiet duties, trivial care,
Burdens too small for other hearts to share;

Spend Thou these days with me, all shall be Thine,
So shall the darkest hour with glory shine.
Then when these earthly years have passed away,
Let me be with Thee in the perfect day.

When He came, though many followed in the way,
Few remained who knew Him and His ways.
Lamb of God—He took the narrow gate;
The constricted way to life He traced;
Sacrificed, though men denied Him;
Gave His life, though men forsook Him.
How can we t’ward Him still hardened be
When to us He gave all selflessly?

Lord we pray, preserve us faithful in the way
All our days, never to fall away.
By Your grace, keep us pursuing You,
Taking up the cross to follow You.
Consecrate we unreservedly,
Absolute for You entirely.
In our hearts, Lord, let the highways be
Unto Zion single-heartedly.

Now we will follow Him!
To His call we’re answering,
All we are we’re offering.
New Jerusalem we see
Come down from heav’n to earth!
God and man mingled now,
Our oneness we avow
Eternally, O gloriously!
This is where the Lamb would lead!

Once Thou wast the only grain, Lord,
Falling to the earth to die,
That thru death and resurrection

We were brought forth in Thy nature
And the many grains became;
As one loaf we all are blended,
All Thy fulness to proclaim.

We’re Thy total reproduction,
Thy dear Body and Thy Bride,
Thine expression and Thy fulness,
For Thee ever to abide.
We are Thy continuation,
Thy life-increase and Thy spread,
Thy full growth and Thy rich surplus,
One with Thee, our glorious Head.

All the troubles in my life
Make me feel like I’m surrounded,
Countless problems, pain, and strife,
Come to rob my soul of peace.
I’m worn and weary fighting off the grief.
Is there no one who my suffering can relieve?
The Lord says,

Jesus is the Son of God,
Come as man, full of compassion.
Crucified upon a cross,
He bore all your sins away.
His life subdues the power of the grave.
Will you let Him soothe your aching heart today?
Then He’ll say,

  “It is I.
  It is I. Don’t be afraid.
  Just believe,
  Call My name and you’ll be saved.”
  Oh Lord Jesus,
  You’re the One I need today.
  I let You in my heart,
  Come in to stay.

In my fellowship with Him
How He shines on what’s within
I’m a-failure with no end
Yet the blood fails not to cleanse
Satan tries to make me doubt
Paralyze my growth in life
Yet his schemes have no success on me because

Though the world still calls my name
and my love for it remains
The Lord-draws me near to Him
Gently touching what I grip
Though I fail, He never will
He is faithful and I still
Put my trust in Him to carry me today

Or look of love to Thee I’ve ever brought;
Yet I may come, and come again to Thee,
With this the empty sinner’s only plea,
Thou lovest me.

Oh, fill me, Jesus, Savior, with Thy love!
Lead, lead me to the living fount above;
Thither may I, in simple faith draw nigh,
And never to another fountain fly,
But unto Thee.

Lord Jesus, when Thee face to face I see,
When on Thy lofty throne I sit with Thee,
Then of Thy love, in all its breadth and length,
Its height and depth, its everlasting strength,
My soul shall sing.

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
I was once rebellious and hard,
But I drop it all now to come to Thee,
Self forsake, that like Thee I’d be.
When I live, be it Thou, I pray,
Not self’s will, but God’s I’d obey;
To Thine heart attuned, Thy delight I’d seek;
No more struggling, fully at peace.

Who in all the world is as fair as Thee?
Or who else can love so romantic’ly?
Oh, most holy One, now You live in me!
Jesus Lord, I deeply love Thee!
No more trusting self, nor deceived I’d be;
I’d put off my self, just be filled with Thee;
Oh, let all apart from Thee fade and flee;
My one love, my best love, is Thee.

Jesus Lord, my best love Thou art;
We two never, ever will part;
Thy dear presence is all my breath and might;
Thy dear smile is all my delight.
I would pour my heart out to Thee,
Love Thee, serve Thee, joined utterly;
My eternal portion, dear Lord, is Thee;
My one hope, Thy coming to see.

Who in all the world is as fair as Thee?

Cover my defenseless head

Thou, O Christ, art all I want;
More than all in Thee I find;
Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
Heal the sick and lead the blind.
Just and holy is Thy name,
I am all unrighteousness;
Vile and full of sin I am,
Thou art full of truth and grace.

Plenteous grace with Thee is found,
Grace to cover all my sin;
Let the healing streams abound;
Make and keep me pure within.

Freely let me take of Thee;
Spring Thou up within my heart,
Rise to all eternity.

The olive tree whose oil is now
Anointing us anew.
Rich milk and honey He doth bring,
Sweet, satisfying, nourishing.
Our Christ is such; He is so much!
What a Christ!

In our good land we eat the bread—
There is no scarcity.
We never lack one thing in Him,
So rich, so full is He.
He is a land so vast, immense;
He is complete in every sense.
How He expands—land of all lands—
In our heart!

Christ is a land of iron stones,
Whence comes authority.
We must dig out this solid Christ
To bind His enemy.
Then we must through the sufferings pass
To be refined as burnished brass.
With iron bind, as brass refined,
Is our need.

Lord, how we bless Thee for this land,
The all-inclusive Christ!
We’ve eaten Him, we’re filled with Him,
O how He has sufficed!
Teach us to labor constantly
Upon this vast reality;
This is our joy, this our employ—

Life is mysterious, life is God Himself,
              G                  A   
Whose whole intention focuses on man.
D                           E7      A    
God made him to take in the tree of life,
D         G               A   A7  D    
To have a man of life for His own plan.

But man was tempted and seduced to sin,
By taking knowledge from the other source.
This man then fell as knowledge entered in
And dominated him with all its force.

This knowledge has developed in the man
Into the human culture on the earth.
So man, created to fulfill God’s plan,
Became a failure full of Satan’s dearth.

Then God came in the Person of the Son;
Lived He on earth, Christ Jesus was His name—
A living model so that everyone
Could live by life, God’s fullness to obtain.

This God-man, Christ, went to the cross and died,
By death He ended knowledge, the old man.
Things negative forever crucified,
Death He subdued, a new life He began!

From death He resurrected and became
The living Spirit to give life to us.
When we believe and call upon His name;
This living Spirit comes to dwell in us.

By this the very Triune God is now
The living Spirit mingling deep within.
Our spirit joins in oneness; this is how
We are one spirit evermore with Him.

’Tis by this Spirit that we walk and act,
We have our being, think, and see all things;
We’re now within this Spirit! What a fact!
This Spirit to us all God’s fullness brings!

So now we have to set our mind on Him;
Each day, each hour, our mind on Him must be;
That by this Spirit we’d be saved within
By life and reign in life eternally.

’Tis by this Spirit that we shall be freed
From Sin whose law inside us death would bring.
Our mortal bodies will have life indeed;
Thus sanctified we’ll be in everything.

This Spirit shall transform our natural life,
Save us from self, build us in one new man,
Till we’re conformed to be like Jesus Christ,
Thus finishing our God’s eternal plan.

Life is our God and life is Christ our Lord.
Life is the Spirit. Life’s the only way—
Till we’re transfigured and redeemed to God.
We’re waiting, looking forward to that day!

Withdraw not Thy presence, O hide not Thy face.

Each time when of heavenly blessings I think,
O let my heart long to be raptured to Thee;
My only hope here is Thy coming again,
My only joy there, Lord, Thy presence will be.
Lord, teach me each day in Thy presence to live,
From morning to evening my one world Thou art;

Lord, I love You more today,
So much more than yesterday;
Lord, I need You, Lord, I love You.

When many years have gone,
And many things have passed,
I will still be for You,
I will still say to You:

Lord, I love You more today,
So much more than yesterday;
Lord, I need You, Lord, I love You.

Lord, I love You. Thank You for opening my eyes

Lord, I’ve been so hardened,
Caught in worldly traffic,
Drowning out Your words that
Fell upon my wayward heart.
Somehow, still You got in,
Soft’ning up my tender parts.
How could I refuse You?
You bore me on Your wounded heart.

I thought I was willing,
Shallowly receiving,
Meanwhile I was sinning,
Burying my shameful side.
But the sun exposed me,
Now I can no longer hide.
Bare without Your presence,
For dire help to You I fly.

Everything seemed peaceful,
Till Your words intruded,
Anxious thoughts arose and
Tried to choke the life away.
Lifelessly I drifted,
Couldn’t tell the night from day.
Then a ray of light came,
Shining through a man of clay.

Oh, the time I wasted,
Trying to be better.
All along You waited,
Just for me to reach my end.
Now I simply open,
Trusting in my truest Friend.
Hold me by Your mercy,
Bear fruit in me until the end.

Now Lord, my heart
Overflows with a praising song!
For Lord, I know,
I’ve been touched by You.

Lovers of Christ in His ascension—
Enjoy the riches of His life.
She becomes His private garden
With its fountain, fruit, and spice.
Christ is hers and she is Christ’s dear love.

She is as beautiful as Tirzah
As lovely as Jerusalem.
Through her living in Christ’s ascension
Her dear heart is now His home.
She’s become the sanctuary of God.

Who is this woman I am seeing?
Shining forth as the moon and sun.
She is absolutely heavenly,
From the old creation free;
Overcoming all to live within the veil.

An army terrible with banners
Christ’s lovers overcome to be.
Those attracted by His beauty,
Fully trusting in His power.
Her romance is now the dances of two camps.

The Shulammite, His duplication,
His counterpart has now become.
She’s the same in life and nature,
His expression to the full;
Consummated as the New Jerusalem.

Not just a body we were made,
But body, soul, and spirit too;
The inmost part the spirit is
To contact God and Him pursue.

Just as we need the earthly food
Our body’s need to satisfy,
We need the food for spirit too—
Thyself, Thy Word, its true supply.

Thou art the Spirit, and Thy Word
Thy very Self expressed doth make;
Thus, it is Spirit as Thyself,
Which by our spirit we must take.

Thus, to receive Thy Word is not
To read it only with our eyes
And understand it in our mind,
But ’tis the spirit’s exercise.

Thy Word in spirit we must eat
And to our inmost part receive;
’Tis by our spirit’s exercise
To pray with what our minds perceive.

Thy Word remaining in our mind
Is only knowledge burdensome,
But when it to the spirit goes
Then life and spirit it becomes.

’Tis only when our spirit acts
To take Thy Word and contact Thee,
We truly feed upon Thy Word
And touch Thyself most inwardly.

Lord, teach us how to exercise
Our spirit when Thy Word we read;
Then will our spirit nourished be
As thus upon Thyself we feed.

But You have captured my heart.

Or what’s my safety, or my health,

Let others stretch their arms like seas,
And grasp in all the shore;
Grant me the visits of Thy grace,
And I desire no more,

And caused my heart to burn.
You touched my hardened heart
And softened every part.

Now nothing can erase.

I couldn’t, Lord, believe,
But, Lord, You still appeared.
Your life in me conceived,
Dear Lord, I now believe.
You called not being as being
In me conceiving.
Your life transfusing,
I’m now reacting.

Dear One, I can’t refuse!

O Love, that wilt not let me go,

I rest my weary soul in Thee;
D           A               Bm

That in Thine ocean depths its flow
            A7     D  
May richer, fuller be.

O Light, that followest all my way,
I yield my flickering torch to Thee;
My heart restores its borrowed ray,
That in Thy sunshine’s blaze its day
May brighter, fairer be.

O Joy, that seekest me through pain,
I cannot close my heart to Thee;
I trace the rainbow through the rain,
And feel the promise is not vain
That morn shall tearless be.

O Cross, that liftest up my head,
I dare not ask to fly from Thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.

I myself was losing heart each day;
Then the Lord brought some saints my own way;
I alone could not Thee apprehend
But with all the saints You now my joy have been.

All these years I’ve come the church to know,
Yet O Lord, there’re things I can’t let go;
Yet within me there is an “Amen”;
O now joy I never knew in me’s flowin’.

Pursuing corporately in all we do

Open up your heart believing,
Call “Lord Jesus” and He’ll come in!
Then today you’ll find Him,
And calling on His name,
You’re joined to Him, you’re one with Him—
You’ll never be the same.

Once ’twas anxious caring,
Now He has the care;
Once ’twas what I wanted,
Now what Jesus says;
Once ’twas constant asking,
Now ’tis ceaseless praise.

All in all forever,
Only Christ I’ll sing;
Everything is in Christ,
And Christ is everything.

Once it was my working,
His it hence shall be;
Once I tried to use Him,
Now He uses me;
Once the pow’r I wanted,
Now the Mighty One;
Once for self I labored,
Now for Him alone.

All in all forever,
Only Christ I’ll sing;
Everything is in Christ,
And Christ is everything.

Once I hoped in Jesus,
Now I know He’s mine;
Once my lamps were dying,
Now they brightly shine;
Once for death I waited,
Now His coming hail;
And my hopes are anchored
Safe within the veil.

All in all forever,
Only Christ I’ll sing;
Everything is in Christ,
And Christ is everything.

He redeemed us from the sons of men.

On the cross ordinances slain,
That He might form just one of twain.
Reconciling us to God,
Thus on the serpent’s head He trod.
He breaks down the middle wall
As upon His name we call;
On the cross ordinances slain,
That He might form just one of twain.

For this cause Your Person, Lord,
We take and stand in one accord;
All the members self forsake,
And of the Body-Christ partake.
We in Christ as one new man
Now come forth to take this land.
For this cause Your Person, Lord,
We take and stand in one accord.

With the calling comes the promise
Of the kingdom life on earth.

To get out of all the dearth!

For this You must call us on,
Till Your kingdom and expression
On this earth are fully come.

To those still in Chaldee’s land—
Leave the fallen situation,
You’ve been chosen for God’s plan.

Call us out into Your building,

Feeding on the husks around me,
Till my strength was almost gone,
Longed my soul for something better,
Only still to hunger on.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

Poor I was, and sought for riches,
Something that would satisfy,
But the dust I gathered round me
Only mocked my soul’s sad cry.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

Well of water, ever springing,
Bread of life, so rich and free,
Untold wealth that never faileth,
My Redeemer is to me.

Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings;
Through His life I now am saved.

And be led forth in peace.
The mountains and hills before you shall sing,
And the trees of the fields clap their hands.
Instead of the thorns shall come cypress,
And myrtle replace every brier,
And it shall be to remember the Lord,
An everlasting sign.

If you’ll taste of His wine,
There is love ever flowing,

Help us amen each trial and tribulation;
Increase in us; make us abound in love.

He’s coming soon—these moments are so precious.
The oil is here—Oh, let us buy the more.
Amen the trials and welcome tribulations—
The kingdom’s ours through these afflictions sore.

Lord, ever turn us from our soulish pleasures
To gaze upon Thy tender, loving face.
Oh, keep us running forth to meet the Bridegroom
And patiently attending to the race.

When Jesus comes, will we be in His presence?
When Jesus comes, will we His face behold?
Oh, let us not return to sloth and folly,
But jealously His loving presence hold.

As His dear Bride, let us go forth to meet Him,
Our lamps well-trimmed, our fires burning bright,
Our vessels filled, our eyes set on His glory,
To be with Him completely satisfied.

Yes, satisfied—Christ and His Bride together.
Yes, satisfied—throughout eternity.
Oh, what a rest, what joy, what love, what favor
To be His Bride when He comes to His feast!

There are times in my life
When my heart is embittered.
There are questions unanswered,
Yet, You’re drawing me

To enter
Into Your blessed sanctuary
And turning my eyes heavenward,
The questions of constant inquiry
Are changed to these words,

Whom do I have in heaven
But You, dear Jehovah.
My flesh and my heart
Constantly fail,

But God’s still
The strength of my heart and my portion;
To Him forever I’ll draw near.
I’ve made Jehovah my sweet refuge.
So now throughout the years

Turn my view to see You,
How I need to see Jesus!!
Though I don’t understand
The ways that You take;

Lord, make me
A babe and suckling always praising.
Enjoying Your worth day by day.
Let each experience constitute me
So Your life I’ll display
In every way.

There's a gospel of today
     D                Em                      
That says believe and you'll be saved and then
D             Em                 D           
You can go to heaven and see the pearly gates
    Em       A7             
And walk the golden streets;
D     A    G     Em      A    
Words like these fail to treat
        D  AG  Em      Asus4A    D  
All the vanity that is hidden in me.

But the gospel is to me
The Triune God within humanity
As the Spirit reaching me to be in me
The one reality;
Love untold—Gospel theme
Never getting old—story told eternally.

Left the ninety-nine behind—
You searched until the lost sheep You did find,
Laid me on Your shoulders there, You bore me in
Your tender loving care;
Rejoicing—You found me
Though a small lost sheep—You gave all to come find me.

Sweeping in my deepest parts,
You lit a lamp and searched my inward heart,
Sanctifying deep within You shined in me,
Exposed me of my sin;
Repenting—now I see
Lord, You’re sprinkling me—with the blood You shed for me.

Eagerly awaiting me
That I the slightest turn to Thee would make
Though my life had been a wreck, You ran to me
And fell upon my neck
Kissing me, affectionately;
Killed the calf for me—“Let us eat and be merry.”

All the riches of this life that is within.
Not just shallowness with strife,
But a deep and peaceful life
Is just waiting to flow out, a living spring.
With the saints it’s easy to be bold,
To pursue this life, to gain it, to lay hold.
All the other things we find,
Must be quickly left behind,
So that only life remains for us to see.

O Lord, we’re just for Your flowing;

Deeper, Lord our turn must be to You;
We would move by life in everything we do;
All our concepts refute,
For Your life be absolute—
Grant us grace to turn much deeper day by day.
When we touch our spirit—such a thrill!
This is far beyond emotion, mind, and will—
It’s within our hidden part—
Come, make home in all our heart;
Let Your presence flow as rivers deep within.

O Lord, we’re just for Your flowing;
How we need a deeper knowing!

And why You’ve come in us.

A priceless living spring,
Wherever it flows conveys the tree,
Brings life to everything;
This turbulent river is full and great,
And man regenerates;
This hydropower permeates,
Transforms and saturates.

But swiftly reach the end,

Will consummate the sanctified
Unto eternal life.

The church life is a life-flow from which we never roam.

We have seen Christ is reality:
G        Em             Am      D   
But it's not sufficient just to see:
G     G7        C         Am
He in our experience must be
G    Gm       D  
Everything to us.
G     Em                Am      D    
We in prayer behold Him face to face,
G      Em                Am       D     
In the Word and meetings know His grace;
G      G7             C     Am    
But in daily life, in every place,
D             G  
What is He to us?

Oh, how real, how full our Lord will be
Am                                 D    
If we'll only turn to Him at every time,
in every day,

Every thing, in every way and—
G     Em          Am D  
Be specific for reality!
G      Em            Am  D  
And be done with generality!
G        G7              C       Am 
If we'll just apply Him, we will see
D         D7       G  
He's everything to us.

        Em           Am  D   
Life is full of opportunities
G       Em              Am       D  
Ordered by our Father's hand: we see
G    G7                    C        Am 
Everything's the best that it could be,
G  Gm         D      
So let's gain Christ!
G          Em            Am D 
Christ our content and reality
G        Em            Am     D  
To shine out from us unceasingly:
G       G7            C       Am 
He must have a way in you and me,
D              G   
He must have a way.
C                         
Hallelujah! In the body we
Bm                                   
Bear the death of Christ continually:
Am                                         
Thus His life comes forth for all to see as
    D                        
The outer man is broken down,
    D7                           
The inner man is shining so that—
G        Em              Am      D  
In these earthen vessels men can see
G           Em            Am D  
There's the treasure of reality!
G        G7                C          Am
Thus the gospel's glorious light will be
D       D7       G  
Shining out from us.

         Em               Am D  
Not just doctrines and theology,
G       Em           Am D  
But the content of reality:
G         G7            C       Am 
Christ as everything in you and me,
D         D7       G

We enjoy all the riches of Him.

Though my eyes be filled with tears,
My heart will evermore be fixed

And I run toward the goal;
I pursue the prize, God’s highest to obtain;
Pressing forward toward the mark,
I run forgetting all behind,
Thus the Holy City gain.

By His love and through His grace I’ll
In the Holy City live—
New Jerusalem, New Jerusalem;
All saints leaping, singing, shouting,
To the Lord their praises give,
In the New Jerusalem.

D          G        
We are the ministers
D        G        
Of a new covenant,
D       Bm                 
Not the letter which kills,
Em      A7  D          D7 
But the lifegiving Spirit.

Whenever the heart shall turn to the Lord,
The veil shall be taken away.
Where the Spirit of the Lord is,
There is freedom;
Whenever the heart turns to the Lord.

D                             A               Bm    
Who can ever know the feeling deep down in my heart?
        D           G        Em             A    
Who can really understand my weakness to sustain?
A7     D                 A             Bm   
When I have lost hope to carry on by myself,
     D                G     A7             D    
Your person stands by me to be my hope and life.

                  A          Bm   
Your love so deep moving and sweet
D         G     A        A7 
How can I still stubborn be;
D         A            Bm     
No more I struggle and strive,
D             G         A7           D      
Trust in Your faith and rest in Your breast.

When I feel the touch of Your hand upon my life,
I sense the flow of life flowing rich and free;
When You wipe away every tear in my eyes,
Sorrow has depart’d, behold a smiling face!

Your love so deep moving and sweet
How can I still stubborn be;
No more I struggle and strive,
Trust in Your faith and rest in Your breast.

我 王 必 定 快 要 再 臨,
  A   A7  D7
天 空 都 滿 了 祂!
  G   C   G     
待 贖 宇 宙 快 得 復 興,
  C   D7  G 
主 要 完 成 救 法!
  B7      Em    
我 已 聽 見 祂 的 腳 聲,
  D   A7  D7
在 那 彩 雲 中 間;
  G   C   G     
我 已 看 見 祂 的 榮 身,
  C   D7  G 
隱 約 顯 露 在 天。

我今仰望我主『同在』,
不敢懈怠一點;
我今等候我主再來,
使我得著所天。
除了我主此刻就來,
接我與祂同在,
除了這件美事以外,
我心別無所愛。

我眼專看我的救主,
我心已經在天,
我口不說別的題目,
只說與主相見。
主的再臨已經緊近,
主來原是為我;
主的應許永遠堅定,
從來沒有空說。

我的救主,你的聖言
無可惑,無可減;
我今忠誠不顧臉面,
因你聖言自勉。
願你榮耀早日顯現,
仇敵敗,陰府陷;
願你應許早日應驗,
接我們到那邊。

你的膀臂是逃避所,
耶穌救主我神!
你像天父一樣保妥
一切靠你的人;
羊和牧者同樣輕重,
身和頭同境遇!
誰也不能從你手中,
奪去你的兒女。

千人的手不能阻我,
萬人的眼也不;
路上荊棘,不過助我
忠勇進前得福。
我心!我靈!今當復興,
讓這世界過去;
生命的主!求你快臨,
接我進入天域。

醫治的日!人的盼望!
我真愛你光線;
公義的主!榮耀的王!
我今伏你面前;
求你自己快登寶座!
求你臉面快顯!
求你伸手建立天國,
向萬民賜恩典!

真理本當得勝為王!
自由本當為后!
但是謊言竟然猖狂,
為這世界元首!
所以真理求你快來!
帶著天光而來!
好使仇敵遇見失敗,
眾子投入你懷。

There’s a life that’s deeper than our mind [Hymnal NS 217 (tune 1, Chinese)]

D                     A      G        D    
There's a life that's deeper than our mind,
       F♯m         Em       A7   D7   
With experience of man, yet so divine.
       G                  A7     
It's a life that knows no bounds;
         F♯m      B7      
And with glory is crowned;
        Em                   Em7              A7  
It's of depth and height and breadth unsearchable.
D                A        G      D  
Now this life is just the Living One
    F♯m           Em     A7     D7  
Manifested in the Person of the Son.
       G          A7    
As the Spirit, He flows;
       F♯m       B7    
In our spirit He grows,
        Em           Em7              Asus4 
Growing up to be the church that He desires.

A7            D             D7      
O Lord, we're just for Your flowing;
       G                     
How we need a deeper knowing!
        D             
Life is why we're here
    Em         A7      D7 
And why You've come in us.
         G             A7  
Turn us, Lord, turn us now;
        D               G  
Turn us deeply— Life is how
D   A7   D       Bm     
You will get the church,
    Em7         A7      D   
The home You're longing for.

In the church, we all can apprehend
All the riches of this life that is within.
Not just shallowness with strife,
But a deep and peaceful life
Is just waiting to flow out, a living spring.
With the saints it’s easy to be bold,
To pursue this life, to gain it, to lay hold.
All the other things we find,
Must be quickly left behind,
So that only life remains for us to see.

O Lord, we’re just for Your flowing;
How we need a deeper knowing!
Life is why we’re here
And why You’ve come in us.
Turn us, Lord, turn us now;
Turn us deeply—Life is how
You will get the church,
The home You’re longing for.

Deeper, Lord our turn must be to You;
We would move by life in everything we do;
All our concepts refute,
For Your life be absolute—
Grant us grace to turn much deeper day by day.
When we touch our spirit—such a thrill!
This is far beyond emotion, mind, and will—
It’s within our hidden part—
Come, make home in all our heart;
Let Your presence flow as rivers deep within.

O Lord, we’re just for Your flowing;
How we need a deeper knowing!
Life is why we’re here
And why You’ve come in us.
Turn us, Lord, turn us now;
Turn us deeply—Life is how
You will get the church,
The home You’re longing for.
