Wonderful song! I'm so glad that I found it on RU-vid. Was looking for a song about loving our enemies as Christ commanded us. Found this. It's perfect
The nation had nothing to do with turning away from God. It was the satanic Rothschild Warren supreme court that took prayer out of the schools. They misinterpreted the constitution separation of church (catholic) and state to mean separation of God and state. Satans bride herself, madalyn murray o'hair led the the separation and not one person since lifted a finger, out of fear, to reverse the ruling
Just remember this song existed and was blessed again! We put together a little group and did this song at church about 5 years ago! Thank you for your attention to faithful and encouraging doctrine. Merry Christmas!!
I get that JJT is quite liberal in his thinking. However as a conservative Christian , I have the right to spend my entertainment dollars on Christian artists who reflect the same biblical values and see the culture war in our society the same way I do. White evangelicals make up a sizable portion of the Christian music market and the record labels understood that. Many of them are going to expect CCM artists to hold to biblical standards on the social issues if they are going to continue buying their music and going to their concerts.
I did a 5 part series reviewing The Jesus Music Movie. In parts 2 and 3 I rebutted 3 comments that Mr Thompson had made in the movie. Please feel free to check it out.
July 2022. Can't believe I am the only one to comment. I wish I was a deep thinker, smarter and more well read. I never read anybody's bible, to date. I'm not spiritual, or religious. I was never a reader,.....I had difficulty learning anything, when I was young. I was labeled a slow learner, I had to be tutored from first grade thorough 7th grade just so I wasn't held back. In my 30s I wondered if I had been Autistic,..... though not diagnosed or tested. I gravitated to making art, since there weren't too many rules. I used to think I was an "idiot/savant",.....I had great visions and could invent things. I realize I got by, by being clever, not smart. I considered myself to be a type of (retard). Yet I had some great successes, once I accepted it was ok to be an artist. I thought I would be an outcast and universally hated by everyone. The opposite was true,.....and I "found my people and I found my skill set". I never felt normal and like an actor,.....I pretended to be normal. I was acting for most of my life, trying to act normal, and hoping no one would find out I was an imposter. I fooled most of the people I encountered, and they believed me. Later in life, I took it a step farther,......I pretended I was employed by my city,.....one day I decided to impersonate a building code enforcer. I created a plausible costume,....invented a phony name for myself, invented my "back-story", and went about improving my neighborhood. I couldn't get fired, since I was never employed. I had all sorts of ways to perpetrate my ruse. I acted like I knew what I was talking about,.....I didn't, but I got good at faking it. I am proud that I secretly improved the housing standards in my neighborhood. Landlords quaked in their boots, at the thought I could levy stiff penalties against them for non compliance. I was never stern or threatening,.....I was always friendly and affable. I did this for about 6 years. No one ever caught on to my ruse.
1 I am Thine, O Lord, I have heard Thy voice, And it told Thy love to me; But I long to rise in the arms of faith, And be closer drawn to Thee. Refrain: Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To the cross where Thou hast died; Draw me nearer, nearer, nearer, blessed Lord, To Thy precious, bleeding side. 2 Consecrate me now to Thy service, Lord, By the pow’r of grace divine; Let my soul look up with a steadfast hope, And my will be lost in Thine. [Refrain] 3 Oh, the pure delight of a single hour That before Thy throne I spend, When I kneel in prayer, and with Thee, my God, I commune as friend with friend! [Refrain] 4 There are depths of love that I cannot know Till I cross the narrow sea; There are heights of joy that I may not reach Till I rest in peace with Thee. [Refrain]

Joel 2:9-11 King James Version 9 They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief. 10 The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining: 11 And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?
