Why Me Lyrics


Why me, Lord? What have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I’ve known?
Tell me, Lord, what did I ever do to be worthy
Of You and the kindness you’ve shown?

Lord help me, Jesus, I’ve wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul’s in your hand


Try me, Lord, if you think there’s a way
I can try to repay all I’ve taken from you
Maybe, Lord, I can show someone else
What I’ve been through myself on my way back to you


Lord help me, Jesus, I’ve wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul’s in your hand

[Outro]
Jesus, my soul’s in your hand

Martina McBride’s Beautiful Version of “What Child Is This?” with Michael W. Smith (Christmas Song)

Martina Mcbride version of the classic Christmas carol “What Child is This.” Martina McBride is a contemporary country singer. She rose to stardom in the late ’90s, starting out with a more traditionalist approach and later moving into pop-friendlier territory. “What Child is This” Christmas song has been interpreted by music icons like Josh Groban, David Archuleta, Charlotte Church, etc but this version by Martina Mcbride is really good.

What Child Is This Martina Mcbride

What Child is This Lyrics

“What Child Is This?”

What child is this
Who lay to rest
On Mary’s lap is sleeping
Whom angels greet with anthems sweet
While shepherds watch are keeping

So bring him incense, gold and myrrh
Come peasant king to own him
The King of Kings salvation brings
Let loving hearts enthrone him

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary

O raise, raise a song on high
His mother sings a lullaby
Joy, oh joy for Christ is born
The Babe, the son of Mary

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary

What child is this who lay to rest
On Mary’s lap, on Mary’s lap he is sleeping

This, this is Christ the King
Whom shepherds guard and angels sing
Haste, haste to bring him laud
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Babe, the Son of Mary
The Son of Mary

One Day at a Time Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I’m only human I’m just a man
Help me to believe in what I could be and all that I am
Show me the stairway that I have to climb
Lord for my sake teach me to take one day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus that’s all I’m asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Do you remember when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know if you’re looking below it’s worse now than then
Pushing and shoving crawding my mind
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus that’s all I’m asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
Yes just for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Happy Thanksgiving! “In Everything Give Thanks!” Gaither feauturing Charlotte Ritchie, Jeff & Sheri Easter

This is a beautiful song to start a new day! No matter what circumstances that we are at the moment, be it good or bad, we have to give thanks to the Lord our God. The Bible say in 1 Thessalonians 5:18: “in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” What are you thankful for today? Count them one by one! Waking up from sleep is a good starting point. Glory to God!

Gaither In Everything Give Thanks [Live]

“In everything give thanks, with all your heart give praise,

for the Lord we serve will never let you down.
In every thing give thanks, with all your heart believe

that the Lord can take a circumstance and turn it all around.”
In Everything Give Thanks Lyrics

In Everything Give Thanks

Jeff & Sheri Easter, Charlotte Ritchie

In everything give thanks, with all your heart give praise
For the Lord we serve will never let you down.
In everything give thanks, with all your heart believe
That the Lord can take a circumstance
And turn it all around.

When you want sunshine to brighten up your day,
But you find the clouds rain on your parade;
Don’t forget somewhere someone you may not know
Is thanking God for a rain to make the crops grow.

When troubles trouble you and you think life’s not fair
When you need someone and there’s no one there;
Remember all the times that you feel alone are the
Times He’ll use to make you strong.

We Are The Reason Lyrics

David Phelps

As little children
We would dream of Christmas morn
And all the gifts and toys
We knew we’d find
But we never realized
A baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives

And as the years went by
We would learn more about gifts
The giving of ourselves
And what that meant
On a dark and cloudy day
A man hung crying in the rain
Because of love, because of love

And we are the reason
That He gave His life
We are the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live

I’ve finally found the reason for living
It’s in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do, every word that I say
I’ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him

And we are the reason
That He gave His life
We are the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live, to live (The reason to live)

He is my reason to live (He is my reason, my reason to live)
My reason to live (He is my reason, my reason to live)
He is my reason to live (He is my reason, my reason to live)
He is my reason to live (He is my reason, my reason to live)
