THE GOODNESS OF GOD
I love You, Lord for Your mercy never fails me
All my days I've been held in Your hand
From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice, You have led me through the fire
In darkest night You are close like no other
I've known You as a father, I've known You as a friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God
'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
VAMP
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
With my life laid down, I surrender now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
I'm gonna sing
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
I will sing of the goodness of God.
I will sing of the goodness of God.
GIVE ME A CLEAN HEART
Give me a clean heart So I may serve Thee
Lord fix my heart So that I may be used by Thee
For I'm not worthy Of all these blessings
Give me a clean heart And I'll follow Thee
Verse 1
I'm not asking For the riches of the land
I'm not asking For high men to know my name
Please give me Lord a clean heart
so that I may follow Thee
Give me a clean heart
And I'll follow Thee
Verse 2
Sometimes I am up And sometimes I am down
Sometimes I am almost Level to the ground
Please give me Lord a clean heart
That I may follow Thee
Give me a clean heart
And I'll follow Thee
THANK YOU LORD
Tragedies are common place
All kinds of diseases, people are slipping away
Economics down, people can't get enough pay
But as for me all I can say is
Thank you Lord for all you've done for me
Folks without homes living out in the streets
and the drug habit some say, they just can't beat
Muggers and robbers, no place seems to be safe
But You've been my protection every step of the way and I want to say
Thank you Lord for all You've done for me
(It could have been me) thank you
(Outdoors) thank you
(With no food) thank you
(And no clothes) thank you
(Or left alone) thank you
(Without a friend) thank you
(Or just another tragic number) thank you
(With a tragic end) thank you
(But you didn't see fit) thank you
(To let none of the things be) thank you
(Cause everyday by your power) thank you
(Your keep on keeping me) thank you
(And I want to say) thank you
I wanna to say thank you for love
Thank you for your power
Thank you for your protection

Join Pastor Lloyd for Wednesday in the Word
We are studying the book of II Kings. The study picks up with David making Solomon king to succeed him on the throne. Solomon had mixed results, with his wealth and wisdom being known worldwide. He built palaces and cities, and a beautiful temple. -The house of the Lord did not match. But while on the throne, he also allowed idol worship to creep into the kingdom. And after his death, a civil war tore the nation in two. Successive kings were mainly terrible, and the prophet Elijah had dramatic confrontations with King Ahab, who could forget Jezebel on the scene. Join us Wednesday nights at 7:30 pm.
