LYRICS // (based on Psalm 86)
Verse 1
Hear me, Lord, out of the depths I call
Comfort and guard my heart, shelter me in this storm
Turn to me, see my distress and need
Weary and poor I come, calling upon your name

Chorus
You are forgiving and good
Abounding in love to the faithful who call
No other god can compare to you
Great is your mercy and grace
With all of your heart I will sing of your name
No other power can save, but you

Verse 2
Teach me, God, show me the righteous path
Lead me to walk with you, trusting you all my days
Hear my cry, with terror on every side
Justice will soon prevail; you are the God who saves

Blood coming from all over his body and NAKED hanging on that cross like torture weapon! What a Lord and God and Savior! He had to do it. HE is God the Son and only His body and blood could pay the sins price of ALL ever! 1 John 2:1-2. God has richly blessed you.

God knew your faithful praise ministry from before the world was made! Ephesians 1:1-14. Oh Lord bless this channel; a haven for your blessings in Jesus Christ. I will pray for you and those gathered here.There is a Crown in Heaven awaiting all who faithfully share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and a soul is saved. ( "JESUS SAVES" below) 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20; Philippians 4:1. The Apostle Paul testified; Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek".

This praise resounds across the earth: "Jesus is Lord and only He saves".
2 Samuel 22: 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name."

JESUS SAVES
God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world.
Mark 16: 15: "And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
How can anyone hear the "good" news? Romans 10: 17 "Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (We receive the "word" in many ways. The "Word" is Jesus Christ!); John 1:1-5 The Spirit teaches through the Word)

Isaiah 7: 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died (John 19:30; Luke 23:46 ) and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew 28: 6.

Isaiah 53:" 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." - IT IS FOUNDED UPON GOD'S LOVE FOR MAN AND WOMAN HE CREATED

John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23
" For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6: 23
" Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14: 6

"1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER!
"And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world." 1 John 2: 2
Romans 5: 8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."
“For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5: 21.
"In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;." Ephesians 1: 7

BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED
Ephesians 2: 8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."

Jesus died to pay the penalty for our sins and rescue us from eternal death. Because of Jesus' death on our behalf, all we have to do is believe in Him, trusting in His death and in the shedding of His blood as payment for our sins, as well as in His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day, and we will be saved! John 20: 24-31; See also 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above.

WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH
Romans 10:
9 That if you shall confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shall believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For with the heart man believes in righteousness; And a confession by mouth is given for salvation.
13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21: 8.

[synthunter]

This song is beautiful and captivating! The lyrics are Biblically inspired, real and raw - we need more of this stuff!

[karindiamond]

Thank you for your precious words of comfort and encouragement.

[florat]

Beautiful rendition. Stay Safe and Stay Blessed.

[kalpanvasa]

"With all of my heart i will sing of your name" Hallelujah! Amen! Praise the Lord!

[haroldgeernian]

These songs are very short, sweet, and to the point which I like. For such a small group y'all are really good; most of the big worship groups have 20+ members on the stage. There are few groups that still provide good biblical songs, namely CityAlight and Sovereign Grace, and y'all are one of those groups.

[benepps]

Powerful song! The melody so perfectly matches the lyrics - a rare feat - we praise the Lord for the skills he's given you.

[houdaharb]

This song captures you right from the first note. The music and words go straight to the heart. Wonderful. Please keep writing and singing these beautiful songs Liv, they are fuel for our spirits and souls. Thank you, God bless. ❤️🙏

[roberttrevino]

I showed your music to my brothers and sisters from church and we all love your music. Greetings from TX ! Also, that drummer is the real deal! I love it when a drummer plays exactly what the song calls for.

[marieltalentscout]

Love the message of the song! Thanks a lot Emu music for sharing your talents.

[peterfoster]

Amen 🙌. Love this song, thank you Emu

[MrJacRad]

Really appreciate this, thank you EMU Music for all that you are putting it out. Berwick Baptist, Nova Scotia, Canada is blessed by it!

[neilh]

What a beautiful song.

I suspect this might not be seen in time, but would it be OK to show our congregation this song during our (online) service? It's not in your video downloads yet, like some of your other songs, but I think it would be very fitting as our pastor's wife passed away unexpectedly this week and I think some of the words are very fitting for the time of grief we're feeling.

God bless you and keep writing amazing songs.
