How Deep the Father’s Love For Us Lyrics

How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.
How great the pain of searing loss –
The Father turns His face away,
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory.

Behold the man upon a cross,
My sin upon His shoulders;
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers.
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished;
His dying breath has brought me life –
I know that it is finished.

I will not boast in anything,
No gifts, no power, no wisdom;
But I will boast in Jesus Christ,
His death and resurrection.
Why should I gain from His reward?
I cannot give an answer;
But this I know with all my heart –
His wounds have paid my ransom.

Softly and Tenderly Lyrics

Softly and tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See on the portals
He’s waiting and watching
Watching for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Why should we tarry
When Jesus is pleading
Pleading for you and for me
Why should we linger and heed not His mercies
Mercies for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Oh for the wonderful love he has promised
Promised for you and for me
Though we have sinned, he has mercy and pardon
Pardon for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”

By

On August 16, 2024

In Gospel Music

This is a very touching performance of this famous gospel song “The Anchor Holds” by Donnie Sumner. Originally written by Ray Boltz, it brings so much encouragement and hope especially for those who are deeply struggling with addictions or life battles. There is hope in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the Anchor of our souls. Let’s cry out to Him for help. He will get us through. The Anchor will surely hold!

Donnie Sumner, raised the son of a minister, is no new comer to the world of Christian music. Since childhood his favorite form of entertainment has been “GOSPEL MUSIC“ with styles ranging from “Foot-stompin’ – hand-clappin’ revival tunes” to what has become known in today’s market as contemporary sacred music. Having devoted over forty years of his own life to the world of music, Donnie has carried on the tradition of others in his family who have also made their mark in this industry. Donnie is the nephew of the late J. D. SUMNER, nationally acclaimed as the “world’s lowest bass singer.” Both Donnie and J. D. were closely associated with the late ELVIS PRESLEY on both his stage appearances and his recordings. (Source: donniesumner.com)

The Anchor Holds

Ray Boltz

I have journeyed
Through the long, dark night
Out on the open sea

By faith alone
Sight unknown
And yet His eyes were watching me

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn

I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

I’ve had visions
I’ve had dreams
I’ve even held them in my hand

But I never knew
They would slip right through
Like they were only grains of sand

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn

I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

I have been young
But I am older now
And there has been beauty
That these eyes have seen

But it was in the night
Through the storms of my life
Oh, that’s where God proved
His love to me

The anchor holds
Though the ship is battered
The anchor holds
Though the sails are torn

I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

I have fallen on my knees
As I faced the raging seas
The anchor holds
In spite of the storm

Classic Hymn “How Marvelous” – Gaither Tent Revival Standout Rendition

By

On August 13, 2024

In Headline, Praise & Worship

This is probably one of the best interpretation of the well-loved hymn “I Stand Amazed (How Marvelous).” Such a powerful song and surely to bless anyone who hears it and fully understand the lyrics.

The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. Today, the Gaither Vocal Band roster is comprised of five power-packed voices, including Bill Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith.

Here is the Lyrics:
I stand amazed in the presence Of Jesus the Nazarene,
And wonder how He could love me, A sinner, condemned, unclean.

Chorus:
O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be: O how marvelous!
O how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!

He took my sins and my sorrows, He made them His very own;
He bore the burden to Calvary, And suffered and died alone.

When with the ransomed in glory His face I at last shall see,
’Twill be my joy through the ages To sing of His love for me.

O how marvelous! O how wonderful!
And my song shall ever be: O how marvelous!
O how wonderful! Is my Savior’s love for me!
