In the Sweet By and By Lyrics
There’s a land that is fairer than day
And by faith we can see it afar
For the Father waits over the way
To prepare us a dwelling place there
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
We shall sing on that beautiful shore
The melodious songs of the blessed
And our spirit shall sorrow no more
Not a sign for the blessing of rest
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet by and by
In the sweet by and by, oh

I’d Rather Have Jesus Lyrics
Song by Jim Reeves
I’d rather have Jesus than silver or gold
I’d rather be His than have riches untold
I’d rather have Jesus than houses or land
I’d rather be led by His nail-pierced hand
Than to be the king of a vast domain
And be held in sin’s dread sway
I’d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today
I’d rather have Jesus than worldly applause
I’d rather be faithful to His dear cause
I’d rather have Jesus than worldwide fame
Yes, I’d rather be true to His holy name
Than to be the king of a vast domain
And be held in sin’s dread sway
I’d rather have Jesus than anything
This world affords today

Ivan Parker – Thank You Lyrics
Artist: Ivan Parker
Album: How Great Thou Art
I dreamed I went to heaven,
and you were there with me.
We walked upon the streets of gold,
beside the crystal sea.
We heard the angels singing,
as someone called your name.
We turned and saw this young man,
he was smiling as he came.
(And he said)
Friend you may not know me now.
(Then he said)
But wait,
you used to teach my Sunday school,
when I was only eight.
Every week you would say a prayer,
before the class would start.
And one day when you said that prayer,
I asked Jesus in my heart.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.
Then another man stood before you.
(He said)
Remember the time,
a missionary came to your church.
His pictures made you cry,
you didnt have much money but you gave it anyway.
Jesus took the gift you gave,
thats why Im here today.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.
One by one they came,
for as the eye could see.
Each life somehow touched,
by your generosity.
Little things that you had done,
sacrifices made.
Unnoticed here on earth,
in heaven now proclaimed.
(Listen now) I know up in heaven,
youre not suppose to cry.
But I am almost sure,
I saw tears in your eyes.
When Jesus took your hand,
and you stood before the Lord.
(He said) My child look around you,
for great is your reward.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am a life that was changed.
Thank You for giving to the Lord,
I am so glad you gave.

Satisfied (Hymn) Lyrics
- All my life I had a longing
For a drink from some clear spring,
That I hoped would quench the burning
Of the thirst I felt within.- Refrain:
Hallelujah! I have found Him
Whom my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies my longings,
Through His blood I now am saved.
- Refrain:
- Feeding on the husks around me,
Till my strength was almost gone,
Longed my soul for something better,
Only still to hunger on. - Poor I was, and sought for riches,
Something that would satisfy,
But the dust I gathered round me
Only mocked my soul’s sad cry. - Well of water, ever springing,
Bread of life so rich and free,
Untold wealth that never faileth,
My Redeemer is to me.

Because He Lives Lyrics
Song by Bill & Gloria Gaither
God sent His son
They called Him Jesus
He came to love
Heal and forgive
He bled and died
To buy my pardon
An empty grave
Is there to prove
My savior lives
And because He lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He lives
All fear is gone
Because I know
He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives
And then one day
I’ll cross the river
And I’ll fight life’s final war with pain
And then
As death gives way to victory
I’ll see the lights of glory
And I’ll know He reigns
Because He lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He lives
All fear is gone
Because I know
He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives (He lives)
Hallelujah
He lives

We Believe Lyrics
I believe in the Father who created all that is
And I believe the universe and all therein is His
As a loving Heavenly Father, He yearned to save us all
To lift us from the fall….I believe.
I believe in Jesus the Father’s only Son
Existing uncreated before time had begun
A sacrifice for sin, He died then rose again
To ransom sinful men…I believe.
I believe in the Spirit who makes believers one
My heart is filled with His presence
The Comforter has come
The kingdom unfolds in His plan
Unhindered by quarrels of man
His church upheld by His hand…I believe.
Though the earth be removed
And time be no more
These truths are secure
God’s word shall endure
Whatever may change, these things are sure…We believe.
So if the mountains are cast down into the plains
When kingdoms all crumble, this one remains
Our faith is not subject to seasons of man
With our fathers we proclaim
We believe our Lord will come as He said
The land and the sea will give up their dead
His children will reign with Him as their head
We believe.
We believe in the Father and all He has done
We believe in Jesus, his one and only Son
And we believe in the Spirit who makes believers one
We believe
We believe
We believe

Jimmy Fortune Sings Classic Hymn “In The Garden” Live In Columbia, Tennessee, 2019
This is probably one of the best versions of this classic hymn “In the Garden.” What a powerful voice of Jimmy Fortune! Very captivating and what a blessing to hear him sing this. “In the Garden” (sometimes rendered by its first line “I Come to the Garden Alone” is a gospel song written by American songwriter C. Austin Miles (1868–1946), a former pharmacist who served as editor and manager at Hall-Mack publishers for 37 years. The song was first published in 1912 and popularized during the Billy Sunday evangelistic campaigns of the early twentieth century.
About Jimmy Fortune
Born in Staunton, Virginia on March 11, 1955, Fortune began his career as a singer in high school as a member of the Nelcon County High School choir. It was in 1981 when Fortune was discovered by Lew DeWitt of The Statler Brothers. He replaced Lew DeWitt and became an integral part of the group, and he wrote several of their latter-day hits, including “Elizabeth,” “Too Much on My Heart,” and “More Than a Name on a Wall.” He spent 21 years touring, singing, and performing with the Statler Brother. In 2002, after the Statlers disbanded, Fortune continued his career as a solo artist. Fortune and the Statlers were welcomed into the Country Music Association Hall of Fame in 2008.
In the Garden
Charles A. Miles, 1913
- I come to the garden alone,
While the dew is still on the roses,
And the voice I hear falling on my ear
The Son of God discloses.- Refrain:
And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
And He tells me I am His own;
And the joy we share as we tarry there,
None other has ever known.
- Refrain:
- He speaks, and the sound of His voice
Is so sweet the birds hush their singing,
And the melody that He gave to me
Within my heart is ringing. - I’d stay in the garden with Him,
Though the night around me be falling,
But He bids me go; through the voice of woe
His voice to me is calling.
