While I Have Breath Lyrics

Rejoice in the Lord!

Rejoice in the Lord, always!

Rejoice with thanksgiving,
Rejoice ever more.
Rejoice in the Lord,
All your days


Rejoice in His life,
Rejoice in His Word.
Rejoice in His love for you

His Countenance (Hymn
#1137)
1. His Countenance angels can often behold,
But ne'er taste His love in His grace;
His saints, though they know of his pure,
boundless love,
Have never yet once seen His face.
His saints will before long His visage behold,
E'en in His bright glory will share;
But Mary, beholding His tears as He wept,
Could touch His heart's agony there.
Could touch His heart's agony there.

2. We'll soon see the Lord, as He is, face to face,
We'll know Him as never before;
But that touch today, healing our broken heart,
In that day will be felt no more.
That day, though our lips offer unceasing praise,
No tears, then, nor prayers fervent burn;
Nor is there the comfort received through much
pain,
Nor trust gained through trials to learn,
Nor trust gained through trials to learn.

3. Exceeding in glory, that day we'll be crowned,
Yet there'll be no cross to obey;
The sweet fellowship of his suff'rings for us
We only can share in today.
Once we've that rest entered, no weariness then,
Nor chance will remain to partake
The trials nor the hardships, nor happiness lost,
Nor suffering borne for his sake,
Nor suffering borne for his sake.

4. Oh, chances to suffer for Him are so few,
His shame and derision to bear;
Such blest opportunities soon pass away,
That He in our troubles may share.
All loneliness, misunderstandings and scorn
Despising's and sorrows will flee;
I treasure these blessings, for through them, O
Lord,
I enter sweet oneness with Thee,
I enter sweet oneness with Thee.

5. I long to behold, Lord, Thy countenance soon,
What rapture with Thee, Lord, to meet.
But neither seek I all these trials to avoid;
Such times, Lord, are too rare and sweet.
Have mercy on me, fill me with Thy great love,
For Thee, Lord, to live at all cost;
Lest Thy servant, hoping for that blessed day,
That day, regret chances were lost,
That day, regret chances were lost.

A Little Bird I Am (Hymn
#724)
1. A little bird I am
Shut from the fields of air,
And in my cage I sit and sing
To Him who place me there;
Well pleased a prisoner to be,
Because, my God, it pleaseth Thee.

2. Nought have I else to do,
I sing the whole day long;
And He whom most I love to please
Doth listen to my song;
He caught and bound my wandering wing;
But still He bends to hear me sing.

3. Thou hast an ear to hear
A heart to love and bless;
And though my notes were e'er so rude,
Thou wouldst not hear the less;
Because Thou knowest as they fall,
That love, sweet love, inspires them all.

4. My cage confines me round;
Abroad I cannot fly;
But though my wing is closely bound,
My heart's at liberty;
For prison walls cannot control
The flight, the freedom of the soul.

5. O it is good to soar
These bolts and bars above!
To Him whose purpose I adore,
Whose providence I love;
And in Thy mighty will to find
The joy, the freedom of the mind.
Lord, I Love You More Today
1. Lord I love You more today, then any other
Lord, I love You more right now, then ever
before
Lord, You are so dear
How could my heart desire anything that's less
then You
Lord, You are the one I must choose
Lord, I love You

2 Lord, I need You more today, then any other
Lord, I need You more right now, then ever
before
Lord, You are so near
Be everything to me, I couldn't live a day without
You
I'm totally dependent on You
Lord, I need You

Lord, I love You (Lord, I love You)
I'll never let You go (won't let You go)
Lord, I love You
I want You to know
Lord, I love You so

In the Clefts of the Rock
(SofS 2:10-14)
1. In the clefts of the rock
I delight to be.
In the covert of the precipice
You would find me.
Lord, conform me now,
Daily to your death.
Let me see Your countenance,
I am a dove,
In the clefts of the rock.

2. My Beloved responds:
Rise up my love,
My beauty and come away;
The rain is gone.
The winter is past,
The time of singing has come.
Rise up and come away,
You are my dove,
In the clefts of the rock.

3. Its just so difficult,
In these clefts to remain.
Naught but Your resurrection power
Could me sustain.
Now to Your call I respond,
From introspection to come.
Now and always, my Beloved,
Id be Your dove,
In the clefts of the Rock.

What a Christ We Have
1. What a Christ we have, the all-inclusive One.
Our allotted portion, set apart in light.
In the kingdom of the Son of God, the Son of
God's love.
Here He rules us in the light of his love.

2. Lift your eyes up and look from where you are.
When you see the Christ, our all-inclusive land,
Then we walk in this blessed land, enjoying all
we see,
Getting saved eating milk and honey.

3. See the wheat, the restricted Jesus Christ.
Incarnation was restriction in the flesh.
Limited outwardly, by God's power set free,
Resurrected as unlimited barley.

4. See the vine trees, the sacrificing Christ.
He produced wine thus cheering God and man.
When we drink this new wine, we are so
energized,
For the Lord to be a living sacrifice.

5. See the fig trees, Christ's sweetness our
supply.
To progress in the joy of all our faith,
Be a channel of supply so others experience
Christ.
And be happy in the bountiful supply.

6. See the pomegranates fulness of His life.
The abundance and the beauty of this life.
As the olive tree the Spirit fills to honor God and
man.
Bearing fruit as branches grafted into Christ.

7. See our portion so available to take.
To be walked in and experienced in full.
Apprehending the unsearchable extent of this
good land,
When we corporately enjoy Him with the saints.
Thou Magnet of My Soul
(Hymn #356)
1. Thou Magnet of my soul!
Let me come nearer, till
The life of self pulsates no more,
But is forever still.

2. Thou Sunshine of my heart!
Fill Thou each crevice there,
And let Thy garden yield to Thee
A fragrance sweet and rare

3. Thou Ransomer from death!
Possess Thy ransomed one:
Appropriate to Thine Own use
The spoil that Thou hast won.

4. Thou Lord of Life and Light!
I bow beneath Thy sway,
And count it holy privilege
Thy precepts to obey.

5. Thou Gift unspeakable!
Straight from God's heart of love,
I break my heart to give Thee room
And thus Thy sweetness prove.
When Morning Gilds the
Skies (Hymn #238)
1. When morning gilds the skies
My heart awaking cries:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Alike at work and prayer
To Jesus I repair:

2. To Thee, my God above,
I cry with glowing love,
The fairest graces spring
In hearts that ever sing,

3. Does sadness fill my mind?
A solace here I find,
Or fades my earthly bliss?
My comfort still is this,

4. When evil thoughts molest,
With this I shield my breast,
The powers of darkness fear,
When this sweet chant they hear,

5. When sleep her balm denies,
My silent spirit sighs,
The night becomes as day,
When from the heart we say,

6. Be this, while life is mine,
My canticle divine,
Be this th' eternal song
Through all the ages long,

You are the Master
1. Lord, You give based on who You are,
Not by anything that I deserve.
Lord, it is not by self effort
Or by any merit of my own, but

You are the Ruler and the King of the
universe.
It is Your word that will last.
You are the Master and the Shepherd of the
flock.
It is not my will, but Yours, that stands.
And You are in charge.

2. Lord, even though I tend to doubt,
I believe Your heart for me is good, and
Lord, I know You do all things well,
So I offer myself willingly, cuz

3. Lord, I trust in Your perfect will,
Because all Your thoughts surpass my highest.
Lord, I may never understand,
Why You act the way You do, but I know

4. Lord, thank You for Your good pleasure.
I can trust that all You do is for it.
So, if it makes You happy, Lord,
I will step aside to let You be my God.

Since Christ My Soul (Hymn
#348)
1. Since Christ my soul from sin set free,
This life has been a joy to me;
And 'mid earth's sorrows and its woe,
'Tis joy my Jesus here to know.

O hallelujah, yes 'tis joy!
For it is Christ that I enjoy!
On land or sea, what matters where?
Where Jesus is, my joy is there.

2. The earth was once a bitter place
Til Jesus showed His smiling face;
Now joy's begun within my soul,
'Twill last while endless ages roll.

3. What matters where on earth we dwell?
On mountain top, or in the dell,
In cottage, or a mansion fair,
Where Jesus is, my joy is there.
Peace to the Brothers (Eph
6:23-24)
Peace to the brothers
And love with faith
From God our Father
And the Lord Jesus Christ
Grace be with all those who
Love our Lord Jesus Christ,
In incorruptibility

Grace with those,
Who love our Lord Jesus Christ
In incorruptibility
Grace with those,
Grace with those,
I Have an Excuse!
I have an excuse to praise my God and Father
I have an excuse to give thanks to my Lord.
I have an excuse to give glory to my God,
Because I know that He is and He's on the
throne.

Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
I will bless the God and Father.
Of my Lord Jesus Christ
I will praise while I have breath
Because I know that He is and I have breath
now

I have an excuse to praise my God and Father
I have an excuse to give thanks to my Lord.
I have an excuse to give glory to my God,
Because I know that He is and He's on the
throne.

Hallelujah!
Praise You God and Father!
Hallelujah!
Praise You Lord Jesus Christ!
Hallelujah!
I will praise while I have breath.
Because I know that He is and He loves me
so.
Yes, I know that He is and He loves me...

(Choruses simultaneously)

Yes, I know that He is and He loves me so!
