JOY IN THE NIGHT

"I am beginning to understand that the times of difficulty and darkness in our lives can be a doorway into a place of intimacy with Jesus not found anywhere else. Will I attempt to find ‘another way' or will I step into the place where Jesus waits to meet me, in all the loving tenderness of His great heart?  I pray that, with me, you may choose to draw close to Him in the dark times, and that these songs will help you on that journey. Truly, there is Joy in the Night!"    Ruth

The cry for the presence of Jesus in our lives is a cry that continues to grow as we feel His touch, and see how beautiful He is.  There is none like Him. I CRY OUT.  When will I see Him? When will His presence be with us forever? These are the cries of the heart that is hungry for God. There is an urgent need in these days to “Get oil, and get it now!”  MARANATHA!  The Lord sees the longing in our hearts, and asks us if we really want to know the depth of His love.  WILL YOU SURRENDER? The knowledge of God’s love for me is staggering. It is beyond my comprehension, and yet, as I touch it just a little, I am persuaded that His love surpasses all other loves.  NO ONE LOVES ME LIKE YOU LOVE ME.  God’s goodness is not dependant on my circumstances, and when I find myself in the darkness, this is really an invitation to go deep into His heart, if I can only see it.  IN THE DARKEST PLACE.  The darkness seems endless. It feels as though there is no way out. Can I still declare His goodness in this place?  HOW LONG? Those around us may accuse God of forsaking us. Can I still see that this is the most wonderful invitation to know His goodness and His faithfulness?  ALL AROUND SAY YOU ARE GONE.  The promise of joy becomes a reality, when we realize that even in the darkest times, when we cannot seem to find Jesus, joy will come to us, as sure as the morning follows the night.  THERE IS JOY

sound clip real audio  I CRY OUT

The heart’s cry of longing for the kiss of God is the greatest place of freedom;

nothing else matters but to have Him, and to be in His presence.

The kiss of His Word upon our lives is the most precious gift to the lovesick worshiper

 

1. I cry out for Your kiss

The sweetness of Your Word upon my lips.

I cry out for Your love

O Jesus, I want to be with You!

 

Refrain

For Your love is better than wine

Your anointing oils are fragrant

Your Name is perfume poured out

 And so, I love You, I love You.

I love You, I love You.

 

 2.I cry out for Your touch

The safety and the strength of Your embrace

I cry out “Meet me here!”

O Jesus, I want to be with You…

 

3. I cry out to hear Your voice

The whisper of Your Word upon my heart.

 I cry out to know You more

 O Jesus, I want to be with You……

 

 

sound clip real audio  MARANATHA

How hungry am I for His presence?

 How long will I wait?

 The cry of “Maranatha!-Come Lord come!” is the expression of those

who spend their time keeping their lamps filled and ready for the Bridegroom to return

 

1. I’m waiting  for the coming of my Lord

I’m waiting for the coming of my King

I’m longing for My Bridegroom to return

And I will watch, And I will watch

And I will cry with all my heart-

 

 

Refrain 

Maranatha! Come Lord come

Maranatha! When will You  return?

Maranatha! Come, O come,

Beloved Bridegroom, come!

2. How long until I see the One I love?

How long until I rest within Your arms?

How long until this aching heart is stilled?

O, I will watch, and I will watch

And I will cry with all my heart-

 

3. My lamp is filled, the flame is burning bright

I’ve gathered oil, to last me through the night

And now I wait until my Bridegroom comes

And I will watch, and I will watch

And I will cry with all my heart-

 

sound clip real audio  WILL YOU SURRENDER?

When God comes to us with a sharp sword of healing in His hand,

it can often seem as though he intends to hurt us, because the pain is so intense.

He wants us to know that His intention towards us is our wholeness, and that He is making us a ready partner for Jesus.

 

1. My child, I come to pierce your heart

And I weep.

I do not desire to hurt you now

But to heal

 

Refrain

Will you surrender to the pain of My love?

Surrender to My touch?

Will you let me pierce your tender heart?

For you know, I love you so much……so much

 

2. As I come and touch the painful place

How I weep!

For I know how much it hurts, My child

To be healed….

 

 

3. Can you trust I want the best for you

As I weep?

That my sword has come to bring you life

As I heal……

 

Final Refrain

I surrender to the pain of Your love,

I Surrender to Your touch.

I will let you pierce my tender heart,

For I know You love me so much….so much.

 

 

sound clip real audio  NO ONE LOVES ME LIKE YOU LOVE ME

Psalm 139 is surely  one of  the greatest prayers  of confidence found in the scriptures.

There really is no place that we can go where God will not be with us.

There is nothing that He does not know about us, and yet He loves us with a steadfast love.

Such grace!

 

sound clip real audio  IN THE DARKEST PLACE

If we can see it, the hard times in our lives are God’s invitation into a deeper place of trust

and intimacy with Jesus than we can ever know when everything is going smoothly.

 

1.In the darkest place I will declare that

You are good!

When it seems as though all light has gone

You are good!

Nothing to hold on to now, nowhere left to go

It’s Your mercy that endures

And now I sing my song to You…

Refrain

You are good, You are good

You are good, You are good 

You are good, You are good 

And Your mercy endures ,Your mercy endures, Your mercy endures… for ever

 

 

2. Singing in the night my song of love

You are good!

Though all around cry ‘He is gone’ You are good!

No one can take this love away

That burns inside my heart

It’s a love You’ve grown in the darkest times

And it’s now becomes my endless song. ..

 

3. I have seen the fire in Your eyes of love

You are good!

With passion they are fixed on me

You are good!

The seal is set,

This love within my heart cannot be quenched

No waters deep, no mighty floods

Could hold me back as I declare….

 

sound clip real audio  HOW LONG?

The cry of pain and the longing for resolution are all part of being in the darkness.

How sweetly He will come to us, if we establish the truth of His goodness and His mercy,

and declare that truth  in the midst of our circumstances.

 

1. How long?

How long will the darkness persist?

Will I ever see the light again?

When will be the end to all the pain?

I am caught, caught in the grip of despair

Hardly able to breathe in the air

But this is the truth, I declare, O…

 

REFRAIN

O the Lord is good, O the Lord is good

And  His mercy endures for ever. (2x)

 

2. In the night

I am unable to see the way

Are you still walking with me Lord?

Are you still the light in the darkest place?

I cannot feel, cannot feel if You’re there at all

I Only feel very weak and small

 But this is the truth I declare, O…

 

3. Will You come?

Come and rescue me now from this place?

Do not leave me here all alone

Do not abandon my heart for ever.

Lift me up, Lift me high above the place of despair

Show me Jesus, you are still there,

For this is the truth I declare, O……

 

sound clip real audio  ALL AROUND

In hard times many will say to us ‘where is your God now?’ 

Will we respond in agreement, or will we root ourselves in the truth of God’s goodness,

and declare that He is good, and His mercy endures for ever?

 

1. All around say You are gone

All around say there’s no help now

Surely Your God has left you alone!

But this is the truth,

And I will declare…

 

Refrain

O God, You are good,

And Your mercy endures for ever

O God,  You are good,

And Your mercy endures for ever

O God, You are good,

And Your mercy endures for ever,

For ever and ever.

 

2. In the darkness night of silence and fear

In the  coldest place of ruin and despair

Though all around may crumble and fall

O this is the truth, and I will declare…..

 

3. Left all alone, helpless and weak

I feel Your hand reaching out to me

And surely now I know that You were always here

O this is the truth, and I will declare…..

 

4. All may be gone, but I am not alone

All may fail, but You’re the Faithful One

Holding me now, I am safe within your arms

O this is the truth, and I will declare…

 

sound clip real audio  THERE IS JOY

There is a place of rest and joy that the Lord wants to bring us into.

It is a place where nothing can shake us, because we a confident in the character of God;

that He is good, and His steadfast love endures for ever.

There is joy when we feel His presence, and there is joy when we do not, because we know deep in our hearts the goodness of God.

 

1. There is joy when I see Your face

There is joy when I hear Your voice

There is joy when I meet You here

There is joy!

There is joy when I feel Your presence

There is joy when know  Your touch

There is joy when I hear Your laughter

There is joy!

 

REFRAIN

Joy after the mourning,

Joy after the tears,

Joy follows the evening,

A new day has dawned,

A new day has dawned,

A new day has dawned-

There’s a resurrection here!

 

2. There is joy in Your mercy Lord,

There is joy in Your faithfulness.

There is joy in Your goodness Lord,

There is joy!

There is joy wrapped in the deepest darkness

There is joy hidden in the grief

There is joy when I can’t even hear Your laughter There is joy!
