Man of Sorrows! What a Name (capo 3, G)

 

 G      Bm        Em     B7  
“Man of Sorrows,” what a name
C       G      A7      D   D7 
For the Son of God who came
G      Bm      Em C    G     
Ruined sinners to re - claim!
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!

 

G       Bm        Em       B7   
Bearing shame and scoffing rude,
C     G           A7        D     D7 
In my place con - demned He stood;
G         Bm     Em   C   G     
Sealed my pardon with His blood;
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!

 

G       Bm        Em        B7 
Guilty, vile, and helpless, we,
C        G       A7      D  D7 
Spotless Lamb of God was He;
G        Bm        Em  C  G  
Full a - tonement! can it be?
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!

 

G      Bm     Em    B7  
Lifted up was He to die,
 C     G          A7      D   D7 
“It is finished!” was His cry;
G      Bm         Em    C   G    
Now in heaven e - xal - ted high;
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!

 

G       Bm         Em       B7   
When He comes, our glorious King,
C       G        A7      D     D7 
All His ransomed home to bring,
G        Bm       Em   C     G   
Then a - new this song we’ll sing
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!
G         D/F#        C     G   
Hallelu - jah! what a Sav - ior!

Yesterday, Today, Forever

A                                D                A    
O how sweet the glorious message simple faith may claim
                          E7                
Yesterday, today, forever Jesus is the same.
                  A                D                 E7  
Still He loves to save the sinful, heal the sick and lame
A                                     D     E7     A    
Cheer the mourner, still the tempest, glory to His Name.
A            D             A            E7   
Yesterday, today, forever, Jesus is the same.
A                   D            A            A    
All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His Name!
      D      A                  E7   
Glory to His Name! Glory to His Name!
A                   D            A     E7     A    
All may change, but Jesus never! Glory to His Name!

 

He, who was the Friend of sinners, seeks the lost one now
Sinner come, and at His footstool penitently bow
He Who said "I'll not condemn thee, go and sin no more,"
Speaks to thee that word of pardon as in days of yore.

 

Oft on earth He healed the sufferer by His mighty hand
Still our sicknesses and sorrows go at His command
He who gave His healing virtue to a woman's touch
To the faith that claims His fullness still will give as much.

 

As of old He walked to Emmaus, with them to abide
So through all life's way He walketh ever near our side
Soon again we shall behold Him, Hasten Lord the day
But twill still be this same Jesus as He went away.

This World is not My Home (Key of D)

                         E7                   A    
My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue.
    D             D7      G7            D    
The angels beckon me from heaven's open door,

And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

There all expecting me, and that's one thing I know.
My Saviour's pardoned me, and now I onward go.
I know He'll take me through, thought I am weak and poor,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

 

I have a loving mother up in glory land,
And I don't expect to stop until I shake her hand.
She's waiting now for me in heaven's open door,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

 

Just up in glory land we'll live eternally;
The saints on every hand are shouting victory.
Their songs of sweetest praise drift back from heaven's shore,
And I can't feel at home in this world anymore.

Love Lifted Me (Key of G)

G                                                D     
I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore;
D7                                            G       
Very deeply stained with sin, sinking to rise no more.
                                              C   
But the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry;
                G      C       D       G 
From the waters lifted me, Now safe am I.
G                           C  
Love lifted me, love lifted me!
             G                A           D  
When nothing else could help, love lifted me!
G                           C  
Love lifted me, love lifted me!
             G                D    G         
When nothing else could help, love lifted me!

 

All my heart to Him I give, ever to Him I'll cling;
In His blessed presence live, ever His praises sing.
Love so mighty and so true, merits my soul's best songs;
Faithful, loving service, too, to Him belongs.

 

Souls in danger, look above; Jesus completely saves.
He will lift you by His love, out of the angry waves.
He's the Master of the sea, billows His will obey.
He your savior, wants to be; be saved today.

Mansion Over the Hilltop (Key of C)

            C                F       C     
I'm satis - fied with just a cottage below,
         G7                  C    
A little silver and a little gold;
                           F             C     
But in that city where the ransomed will shine,
         G               G7     C    F   C 
I want a gold one that's silver lined.   
C    C7    F                     C       
I've got a mansion just over the hilltop,
               G                G7         C   
In that bright land where we'll never grow old;
    C7      F                         C      
And someday yonder we will never more wander,
             G                G7     C    
But walk the streets that are purest gold.

 

Though often tempted, tormented, and tested,
And like the prophet my pillow's a stone;
And though I find here no permanent dwelling,
I know He'll give me a mansion my own

 

Don't think me poor or deserted or lonely;
I'm not discouraged, I'm heaven bound.
I'm just a pilgrim in search of a city,
I want a mansion, a harp, and a crown.

There in those mansions sublime.

Who Am I

by Rusty Goodman

 

C                      G7               C    
When I think of how He came so far from glory
        Am              D7            G7 
Came to dwell among the lowly such as I
          C         G7      C    
To suffer shame and such disgrace
         Am      D7      C    
On Mount Calvary take my place
                       G7              C 
Then I ask myself this question Who am I?
       F                     C                
Who am I that The King would bleed and die for
                                         G7      
Who am I that He would pray not my will, Thy Lord
    C      G7          C   
The answer I may never know
       F    G7       C 
Why He ever loved me so
                                  G7            C 
But to that old rugged cross He'd go For who am I?

 

                         G7                   C    
When I'm reminded of His words I'll leave Him never
             Am                D7          G7  
If you'll be true I'll give to you life forever
     C             G7         C   
Oh I wonder what I could have done
   Am            D7   C  
To deserve God's only Son
                                  G7             C 
To fight my battles until they're won For who am I?

Repeat Chorus

It is the night of the dear Savior's birth.
                      F             C    C7  
Long lay the world in sin and error pin -ing,
            Em/B           B7            Em    
Till he ap -peared and the soul felt its worth.
  G7/D   G7 G7/B      C                    
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices,

C                                         
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His cradle we stand
So led by light of a star sweetly gleaming
Here came the wise men from orient land
The King of kings lay thus in lowly manger
In all our trials born to be our Friend

 

Chorus 2:
He knows our need
to our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King before Him lowly bend
Behold your King before Him lowly bend

 

Verse 3:
Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains shall He break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we
Let all within us praise His holy name

 

Chorus 3:
Christ is the Lord
O praise His name forever
His power and glory evermore proclaim
His power and glory evermore proclaim
