His Divine Plan

First there was Adam
Then the help meet for him called Eve
Adam knew Eve and they bore sons
Sons Got married and wives conceived

As they were commanded they multiplied and replenished the earth
Then came Abraham and there were many descendants
Eventually many nations came into existence
Nations rose up against other nations as more sons were birthed

There has been wars for centuries now
Nations falling to other nations while others became superior
In the midst of all this ongoing world feud came our creator
He came to fulfill his divine order He came as our Savior... wow

He did not come to save one nation from another
He did not come to save one race from another either
Neither did He come on this globe to save one region from another
He came for a cause that was bigger and mightier

Mightier than any man on earth could achieve
The eternal creator required a penalty no man could qualify to pay
He knew this whole catastrophe before it was conceived
He had a divine plan to settle this account His way

The Son was the only one worthy from before the foundation of the world
To pay the debt He didn't owe
He was the only one worthy from before the foundation of the world
To lay down His life for a world of sin sick souls. 

The Stranger

He created the entire universe
The whole world, the sea and land are in His hand
He made the  fowls of the air, the fish in the sea, the creatures on the land
Then He said everything is good now let us make man

By Him everything was made that was made
Without Him nothing was made that was made
He was in the beginning and part of a divine delegation
He was a part of the trinity, Father, Son, Holy Spirit, the three in one

At the end of creation of everything including the creation of man
Everything was looked at that sixed day and there was a proclamation
Everything is very, very good just as planned and made
This entire creation is top of the line, it's first grade

Centuries later He came to His own but they received Him not
He came in the dark of night in a stable on a lot
In Him was life and that life was the light of men
He's the same now and forever as He was then

This stranger loves and cares so much for us
He demonstrated the greatest love anyone could have for us
Greater love has no one than this man
When He laid down his life for the whole race of humans 

The Cross

It was a symbol of destruction
It brought to families devastation
It was no different for the Lord
His mother and entire family and friends thought it hard

The cross signified a curse
To those crucified from the first
But when that cross bore our Lord until He died
The curse was removed and the cross was now glorified

Quickly pen was put to paper thereafter
And beautiful word appeared from the Holy drafter
When I survey the wondrous cross on which the prince of glory died
My richest gain I count but loss and pour contempt on all my pride

Even words that revealed our duty
For it was for us He paid the booty
Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free
There's a cross for everyone and surely, there's a cross for me

Because He Lives

Because He lives I can face tomorrow
Because He lives all fears are gone
Because I knoo-oo-oow He holds the future
My life is worth living just because He lives

It is because of Him I can wake up each morning
It is because of Him I am in my right mind
It is because of Him I have clean air in the atmosphere to breathe
It is because of Him why I exist today

No one can let me doubt my Savior and Lord
No one can tell me He is not alive
No one can prove me wrong for believing
No one has ever proved Him wrong since He died

He is my Savior, who rose from the dead, my keeper and Lord
He is my redeemer who lives forevermore
He is my healer, my deliverer, my one and only eternally
He is ever living, ever true, ever sure for all eternity.

I am still here because He lives
I am a living testimony because He lives
I have abundant life because He lives along all shore
I was given mercy and grace because He lives forever more.

We Belong To You

Before I was created You saw me
Before I was formed You knew me
As I exited my mother's womb You ordained and sanctified me
You fearfully and wonderfully made me

You sanctified and ordained me a prophet to nations
You have been doing this to your elect for generations
To each one you made your angel was stationed
To protect from all enemies with destructive intention

To all your plans what is your children response
We feed on milk before learning to pick up our weapons
Prayer, praise, You Word, faith, and so much more
They work for every child of God, rich or poor.

Jesus in your name we can do all things
At your feet your child comes, all sacrifice brings
Your name, Your blood is so powerful for our use
Jesus we're Yours Lord, Your vessels to use.

He Knows You

He knows you
And He loves you
He will always be there for you
He will never leave or forsake you

You are fearfully and wonderfully made
He sees you there under the shade
He knows you're not at your best right now
And he knows when you're putting on a show

Don't think for one moment that anything passes Him
He is able and willing to do for you anything, just trust Him
He knows your going out and your coming in
He knows your end from your beginning

Only trust and obey your creator
In your God, you will never be an imitator
Everything He does with you is original
And His solid and powerful Word is eternal

He Does All Things Well

He looked very tired and frail
He was on a very long and punishing trail
He had been through a mock trial all night
Beaten without mercy was only a part of His plight

Down the Villa De La Rosa He journeyed
Bloody, and bruised and weary
He could hardly breathe as He looked around
His body was beaten to a pulp but His face had no frown

His skin was so bloody, it was barely visible
Hard to believe He was God invincible
On His face where His beard and sideburns had been
It was now only raw flesh and blood to be seen

He stumbled down the pathway to Golgotha's mountain
From there would be penned the song of a bloody fountain
Where sinners plunge beneath that flood lose all guilty stain
Someone was ordered to help, it was only humane
 
The Holy Spirit quickly inspired man to put pen to paper
To the natural man these words were like vapor
As man put words on paper convincing words were written
Those who believed within their spirits were truly smitten.

Must Jesus bear the cross alone and all the world go free,
There is a cross for everyone including you and me.
And when I survey the wondrous cross on which the prince of glory died
My richest gain I count but loss and pour contempt on all my pride.

The first chance He got to speak to His mother Mary
As she bent down to wipe His bloody face, earlier hairy
He spoke triumphantly while forcing a smile
"Look mother, I'm doing a new thing, it will happen in just a little while."
