What #heaven holds
No #eye has #seen #heard #conceive
This is #love
to #heal #thebroken
Bleeding #life into the #grave

We are worlds, we are bodies
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame

Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus

This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world

We are shadows and portraits
Empires of light and clay
Images of our Maker
Sinners called out as saints

Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus

This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world

No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name

No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name

"LIFE IS TO BE LIVED"

#TMB @IsraelKuti #israelkuti
#Never lit the #face up with a #frown
#Stand #tall and #voice on still
These #success once #turned

When life brings you down

When on your face is tears trickling down

Never lit the face up with a frown

Cos its always darkest before the dawn

When your words are off reckon

Never you hide in any corner

Stand tall and voice on still

These success once turned,

Will surely tour.

"War"

#triplee #war #Jesus #life

 #death and #Hades they'll #freeze where they stand

 The #Son came down to the wasteland we in

A #death -filled mess, He'll #win, no leavin"

This is war

Like you ain't seen

This winter's long

It's cold and mean

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

It's war tonight, it's death and life

This the kind of war you ain't never seen ever

Soldiers gettin' ragged, homie, heads gettin' severed

Death toll's crazy like nothin' on record

Civilians ain't safe, man, the troops might get ya

Can't run or hide, 'cause them guys gon' catch ya

They never get tired, never let up

They're fired up, wired up, to put you on a stretcher

But is the good side tough enough? You bet yah

Yeah you got bad guys, you know they a problem

Tryna overthrow the King, yep that's what we call Him

No life fulla dark knights, no Gotham

This ain't fake death, no possum, can't anybody stop 'em?

Tombstones everywhere, dead bodies rottin'

Big glocks poppin', bodies still droppin'

But I ain't gon' cry though, 'cause Death'll get swallowed

The Father sent His Son and the troops gon' follow

This is war

Like you ain't seen

This winter's long

It's cold and mean

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

It's war tonight, it's death and life

The Son came down to the wasteland we in

A death-filled mess, He'll win, no leavin'

No rest til Death's killed, the fight ain't even

And death won't be left still breathin' (get'm)

The Son's on the frontline crossin' their borders

Invadin' enemy land, but they can't thwart Him

A good troop will graze him, and they ain't even force him

But God use that sin to support Him

They capture the King, next thing they shots rang out

General is down, the troops are like "We out"

The life-giver dies, and the other side celebrates

But they ain't know that hell is fate, the devil faced

They never say, if he's the beast who's the featherweight

Just when they thought they took Him down, He would elevate

Death can never take pride in that blow

'Cause the King beat death when He died and He rose

This is war

Like you ain't seen

This winter's long

It's cold and mean

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

It's war tonight, it's death and life

It really might seem like the war's still goin'

People still dyin', sin is still potent

The devil's still temptin', and evil ain't slowin'

Just wait until that trumpet gets blowin'

The general is comin' with keys in His hands

The death and Hades they'll freeze where they stand

To see they've been defeated, please understand

If they don't wanna see Him, bro the King is the man

He's the man of war, a beast on the battlefield

Obliteratin' all the evil forces that are killed

What you seen, death? Oh you don't got it, bro

Where's your victory? Oh you've been swallowed whole

And when He's back ain't no fightin' Jehovah

He'll toss you in a lake of burnin' fire and sulphur

He's a titan, a soldier

He'll wipe away our tears, and our fears, and all our pain and death will be over

This is war

On sin and death

The dark will take

It's final breath

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

When life and death go to battle, ain't no tellin' what'll happen

It's war tonight, it's death and life

"Gold" Lyrics

watch: gold

You were walking on the moon
Now you feeling low-ow-ow
What they said wasn't true
You're beautiful
Sticks and stones break your bones
I know what you're feeling
Words like those
Won't steal your glow
You're one in a million, this, this is for all the girls
Boys all over the world
Whatever you been told
You're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high
It's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows
You're worth more than gold
You're worth more than gold

Everybody keeps score
Afraid you're gonna loo-loo-loo-loose
Just ignore
They don't know the real you
All the rain in the sky
Cant put out your fire
Of all the stars out tonight
You shine brighter this, this is for all the girls
Boys all over the world
Whatever you been told
You're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high
It's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows
You're worth more than gold
You're worth more than gold

So don't let anybody tell you that you're not loved
And don't let anybody tell you that you're not enough
Yeah, there are days when we all feel like we're messed up
But that truth is that we're all diamonds in the rough

So don't be ashamed to wear you're crown
You're a king, you're a queen inside and out
You glow like the moon, you shine like the sun
This goes to you, wherever you are

This, this is for all the girls
Boys all over the world
Whatever you been told
You're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high
It's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows
You're worth more than gold
You're worth more than gold

So don't be ashamed to wear you're crown
You're a king, you're a queen inside and out

"Boasting"

 watch: boasting-lecrae-feat-anthony-evans

(feat. Anthony Evans)

[Chorus:]
If this life has anything to gain at all
I'll count it loss if I can't hear you, feel you, 'cause I need you.
Can't walk this earth alone.
I recognize I'm not my own, so before I fall
I need to hear you, feel you, as I live to make my boast in you alone.

[Verse 1:]
With every breath I take, with every heart beat,
Sunrise and the moon lights in the dark street.
Every glance, every dance, every note of a song.
It's all a gift undeserved that I shouldn't have known.
Every day that I lie, every moment I covet
I'm deserving to die, I'm just earning your judgment.
I, without the cross there's only condemnation.
If Jesus wasn't executed there's no celebration.
So in times that are good, in times that are bad
For any times that I've had it all I will be glad.
And I will boast in the cross. I'll boast in my pains.
I will boast in the sunshine, boast in his reign.
What's my life if it's not praising you?
Another dollar in my bank account of vain pursuit.
I do not count my life as any value or precious at all.
Let me finish my race, let me answer my call.

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]
Tomorrow's never promised, but it is we swear.
Think we holding our own, just a fist full of air.
God has never been obligated to give us life.
If we fought for our rights, we'd be in hell tonight.
Mere sinners owed nothing but a fierce hand.
We never loved him, we pushed away his pierced hands.
I rejected his love, grace, kindness, and mercy.
Dying of thirst, yet, willing to die thirsty.
Eternally worthy, how could I live for less?
Patiently you turned my heart away from selfishness.
I volunteer for your sanctifying surgery.
I know the Spirit's purging me of everything that's hurting me.
Remove the veil from my darkened eyes.
So now every morning I open your word and see the Son rise.
I hope in nothin, boast in nothin, only in your suffering.
I live to show your glory, dying to tell your story.

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
Glory was solely meant for you.
Doing what no one else could do.
With All I have to give, (With all I have to Give)
I'll use my life, I'll use my lips. (My Lips Yeaaah)
I'll only glory in your Word. What gift to me I don't deserve.
I'll live in such a way that it reflects to you, my Praise.

[Chorus: with Descant]

"I Surrender"

Here I am
Down on my knees again
Surrendering all
Surrendering all

Find me here
Lord as You draw me near
Desperate for You
Desperate for You

I surrender

Drench my soul
As mercy and grace unfold
I hunger and thirst
I hunger and thirst

With arms stretched wide
I know You hear my cry
Speak to me now
Speak to me now

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more
[x2]

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a rushing wind
Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Like a mighty storm
Stir within my soul
Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

Lord have Your way
Lord have Your way in me

I surrender
I surrender
I wanna know You more
I wanna know You more

"Let The Heavens Open"

You are welcome in this place
Welcome in our hearts
Come and have your way
God, meet us face to face
All consuming fire
Move without restraint

Breathe on us
Spirit, come
You're our heart's desire

We stand in the glory of the King
Knowing that You're here
You have set us free
You're here
Let our worship be Your throne
Amazed by who You are
Your Presence makes us whole

Breathe on us
Spirit, come
You're our heart's desire
[Repeat 3x]

Let the Heavens open
Let Your Kingdom move
All our faith and hope
Our great God
[Repeat 2x]

Let the Heavens open
*(No Heaven locked up, let it open)
Let Your Kingdom move
*(No Kingdom stand still, let it move)
All our faith and hope
*(Our faith, our trust, our hope in our great God)
Our great God
*(Our Great God)
[Repeat 3x]

"Don't Waste Your Life"

(feat. Cam & Dwayne Tryumf)

[Hook — Cam:]
Don't wanna waste my life

[Verse 1 — LeCrae:]
I know a lot of people out there scared they're gone die
A couple of them thinking they'll be livin' in the sky
But while I'm here livin' man I gotta ask why, what am here fo' I gotta figure out
Waste my life
No I gotta make it count
If Christ is real then what am I gonna do about
Everything in Luke 12: 15 down to 21
You've really gotta go and check it out
Paul said if Christ ain't resurrected we've wasted our lives
Well that implies that our life's built around Jesus being alive
Everyday I'm living tryin' to show the world why
Christ is more than everything you'll ever try
Better than pretty women and sinning and living to get a minute of any women and men that you admire
It ain't no lie

We're created for Him
Outta the dust he made us for Him
Elects us and he saves us for Him
Jesus comes and he raises for Him
Magnify the Father why bother with something lesser
He made us so we could bless Him
To the world we confess Him
Resurrects Him
So I know I got life
Matter fact better man I know I got Christ
If you don't see His ways in my days and nights
You can hit my brakes you can stop my life
Then I lost my rights
I lost my life
Forget the money cars and toss that ice
The cost is Christ
And they could never offer me anything on the planet that would cost that price.

[Verse 2 — Dwayne Tryumph:]
Armed and dangerous
So the devil just can't hang with us
Christian youth them will stand with us
Living and driven
Given a vision
Fulfilling the commission he handed us
London to Los Angeles
The rap evangelist
My daddy wouldn't abandon us
I gotta backpack full of tracts and I keep it on the Johnny mac
So are you ready to jam with us
So let's go, give me the word an let's go
Persecution let's go
Tribulation let's go
Across the nation let's go
Procrastination let's go
Hung on the cross in the cold
Died for the young and the old
Can't say you never know
Heaven knows how many souls are going to hell or to heaven so we gotta go in to get them

[Verse 3 — LeCrae:]
Suffer?
Yeah, do it for Christ!
You're trying to figure what to do with your life
If you make a lot of money hope you're doing it right
Because the money is God's you better steward it right
And stay focused
You ain't got no ride
Your life ain't wrapped up in what you drive
The clothes you wear, the job you work
The color your skin naw you're a Christian first
People get to living for a job
Make a little money start living for a car
Get 'em a wife a house kids and a dog
Then they retire they're living high on the hog
But guess what they didn't ever really live at all
To live is Christ and that's Paul I recall
To die is gain so for Christ we give it all
He's the treasure you'll never find in a mall
Your money your singleness marriage talent your time
They were loaned to you to show the world that Christ is Divine
That's why it's Christ in my rhymes
That's why it's Christ all the time
See my whole world is built around Him He's the life in my lines
I refuse to waste my life
He's too true to chase that ice
Here's my gifts and time
'Cause I'm constantly trying to be used to praise the Christ
If he's truly raised to life
Then this news should change your life
And by his grace you can put your faith in place that rules your days and nights.

"Speak Life"

Song by Toby Mac

life feels perfect.
Other days it just ain't workin.
The good, the bad, the right, the wrong
And everything in between.

Though it's crazy, amazing
We can turn a heart with the words we say.
Mountains crumble with every syllable.
Hope can live or die

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Some days the tongue gets twisted;
Other days my thoughts just fall apart.
I do, I don't, I will, I won't,
It's like I'm drowning in the deep.

Well it's crazy to imagine,
Words from our lips as the arms of compassion,
Mountains crumble with every syllable.
Hope can live or die.

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Lift your head a little higher,
Spread the love like fire,
Hope will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the words you say.

Raise your thoughts a little higher,
Use your words to inspire,
Joy will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the things you say.

Lift your head a little higher,
Spread the love like fire,
Hope will fall like rain,
When you speak life with the words you say.

So speak Life, speak Life.
To the deadest darkest night.
Speak life, speak Life.
When the sun won't shine and you don't know why.
Look into the eyes of the brokenhearted;
Watch them come alive as soon as you speak hope,
You speak love, you speak...
You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

You speak Life, (oh oh oh oh oh oh) You speak Life. (oh oh oh oh oh oh)

Some days life feels perfect.

NOW IS THE HOUR

Now is the hour

To climb the success tower

To embark on the life positive tour

Renouncing all clogged actions

Forsaken all unfaithful reactions

Now is the hour

Who told you tomorrow will be fine

Who gave you the sign

Who promised you an additional time

Now is the hour

The uncertainty of tomorrow is very high

Your clock will soon breathe its last

And you alone left to defend your past

Now is the hour

To plung your net to the deepest of the sea

To impact the lost life in your vicinity,

And provide them a peaceful home in eternity.

#now is the hour

LIFE JOURNEY

The  journey isn't funny

On your two tentacles u've got to move on beaming

The rugged road with its cruelty teeth so gnashing

Yet unseen is your last breath courage

The road so deserted

With fountains of no harvest

To quench the thirst that has got you perplexed

The passersby you gladly approach

Their friendly company you sincerely propose

Yet straight in your eye they gave a reproach

Yet in this desertion, i journeyed the road

To my faintest cry did God reply

Nothing kept me still, than his utmost concern

Soonest the road will tell her story

0f a sojourner who quenched his troubles

Down the memory lane without a plane.

The Promise --- 1Ti 4:8

"For bodily exercise profiteth little:but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come."
1Ti 4:8 (KJV)

posted from Bloggeroid

Rhythm of Life

All stance feel nice,
When the heart is in tune,
I see myself in line,
With all rhythm of life,
I find peace for concepts,

My precious soul,
Wouldn't you lose yourself?
In common cause,
Fall into worldly lust,

Yes, I fear,
Yet I trust,
My hope in Christ,
His word my fate,
Rhythms of life,
Can't tear me apart.

The Promise --- Acts 11:18

When they heard these things they fell silent. And they glorified God, saying, “Then to the Gentiles also God has granted repentance that leads to life.”
Act 11:18

"According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:"
2 Peter 1:3
