My Filing Cabinet

This is the Lyrics for Oh Mighty Cross.

This song never fails to slow me down and worship Abba God.

The words focuses squarely on Jesus Christ and the sacrifice He had to make to give me abundant and overflowing life, undeserving grace and shalom peace.

The song sang of the Lord of life who is raised up on the cross to die. That He knew no sin but took all of mine. That He is so pure yet endured the shame that my impurity caused. The scourging He suffered bought me the peace I can’t get myself.

The cross is mighty indeed. He took my place so that I can take His. And now, as He is, so am I in this world.

The lyrics and music are written by David Baroni and John Chisum.

May it minister life to your soul.

O mighty cross
Love lifted high
The Lord of life
Raise there to die
His sacrifice on Calvary
Has made the mighty cross a tree of life to me

O mighty cross
What throne of grace
He knew no sin yet took my place
His sacrifice on Calvary
Has made the mighty cross a tree of life to me

O mighty cross
Oh Christ so pure
Love held him there such shame endured
His sacrifice on Calvary
Has made the mighty cross a tree of life to me

O mighty cross
My soul’s release
The stripes He bore has brought me peace
His sacrifice on Calvary
Has made the mighty cross a tree of life to me

Oh mighty cross x3
A tree of life to me

Oh mighty cross!

Lyrics for I’m Held by Your Love

This is the first New Creation Church worship song that helps me to fall in love with Jesus all over again.

The video embedded here is a newer version sang by Bob Fitts together with the original singer Adeline Gan. I have no rights over this video. I’m just sharing it here as I found it at youtube and it will be here as long as youtube has it. I hope it blesses you as much as it has for me.

The Lyrics
I’m held by Your love, upheld by Your strength
On your shoulders You bore me, by Your faith I stand
Cherished by You Lord, treasured in Your sight
So close to Your heart, held firm in Your hand [Repeat once]

So awesome is Your love
So mighty is Your hand
On eagle’s wings You carry me
Your grace shall be my strength
So perfect is Your love
You sacrificed Your son
Amazing love reached out to me
With joy to You I come

Not by my wisdom, not by my strength
Gently You guide me, lead me by hand
Total surrender, Jesus I am Yours
Now and forever, in Christ I now stand

So awesome is Your love
So mighty is Your hand
On eagle’s wings You carry me
Your grace shall be my strength
So perfect is Your love
You sacrificed Your son
Amazing love reached out to me
With joy to You I come [repeat 2x]

I’m held by Your love, upheld by Your strength
On your shoulders You bore me, by Your faith I stand

It’s all about Jesus sang by the PlanetShakers is one of my all time favourite praise song. The lyrics is all about what Jesus has done for me. Here’s the youtube video and the lyrics. God bless the PlanetShakers!

It’s all about Jesus
It’s all about the way he changed our lives
It’s all about Jesus
The power of his blood can’t be denied
It’s all about Jesus
It’s all about the covenant he made
It’s all about Jesus
Victorious he rose up from the grave

We lift our hearts to him
He is the reason that we sing

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
We praise your name

It’s all about Jesus
It’s all about the way he set us free
It’s all about Jesus
Bearing all our sins at Calvary
It’s all about Jesus
It’s all about the gift of love he gave
It’s all about Jesus
The precious lamb of God for us was slain

We lift our hearts to him
He is the reason that we sing

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We praise your name
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We praise your name

We lift our hearts to him
He is the reason that we sing

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We praise your name [4 times]

This video is a live recording. A different feel to the one recorded in the studio.

I first heard PlanetShakers in 2002 when a church friend recommended the album Reflector. My initial reaction was that the music was too loud. However, the lead singer’s diction was clear and I could hear the lyrics and they won me over. Sometimes a little loud music is good for the soul. Here’s a selection of their latest songs downloadable as mp3 from Amazon.
