Favourite Sermons – Phil Johnson





Every now and again – because we are so blessed with access to recorded sermons of great men far away and in the past – I come across a sermon that leaves me breathless, a sermon I can listen to again and again. Occasionally I will post these on my blogs to share them with you. Today’s selected sermon is by …

Phil Johnson
A very timely message for the church in general. Wake up!

Tetelestai (song)



(13/07/2015) Jason Horsler

[C] This child of God
[G] poor in the world
[C] Rich in the Lord
[G] found him a pearl
[C] sold all he had
[G] bought him a field
this child of God
has been [C] sealed

This church of Christ
a light on the hill
study the Word
to find God's will
built on the rock
not on the sand
this church of Christ
in his hand.

CHORUS:
[C] Save us [Em]Jesus
[Am] all hail [G] Jesus
[C] Save us [Em]Jesus
[G] tetelestai
it is [C]done.

This little song
to worship our king
will not earn his love
or even begin
to pay for his gift
so dear and so free
the words cried out on
calvary


            (Chorus)

[G] tetelestai
it is [C]done.
[G] tetelestai
it is [C]done.

Hold on

(28/04/2015)


INTRO:

[D#] [Gm] [D7] [Gm]



CHORUS:

Hold [D7] on  Hold [Gm]ooo-ooon

Keep my hand on the plow, hold on .
Hold [D7] on  Hold [Gm]ooo-ooon

Keep my hand on the plow, hold on.

[D#] [Gm] [D#] [D7] [Gm]


I won't walk left won't walk right

stand my watch right through the night

            keep my [D#] hand on the plow hold [Gm]on.

Face the front, don't look back

I will follow the furrow's track

and i won't cease to pray

until he catches me away

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.


            (Chorus and refrain)


I count all I have as loss

clinging firmly to the cross

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.

Nothing else I know can save

my wretched self from the hungry grave

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.

let the dead bury the dead

proclaim my kingdom Jesus said

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.


            (Chorus and refrain)


Lord hold me safe in your hand

In your Gospel I will stand

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.

In your truth I'll endure

You word is manna and more sure

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.

My hands are weak and yours are strong

Lord please keep me holding on

            keep my hand on the plow hold on.


(Chorus - repeat last line three times)


end (slow):

Gm

I will endure keep it straight

on the narrow road to the narrow gate

Holding [D#] on oh holding [D7] on hooo- ooolding [Gm]oooon

The Valley Below - Original Song




The valley below
(15/072015) Jason Horsler

[Am]down in the valley below
[E7] i walked with my woes
[Am] i was blind i [Dm] could not see
[Am] all the sins that [E7] burdened me
[Am]because i did not [E7] know
I was [Dm] down in the valley be - [Am] low

The [F7] sheppherd [E7] rescued [Am] me
[Dm] now i'm free in - [Am] deed
[Am] from the the valley of death
the [E7] valley of sin
for [Am] he will lead me [E7] after him
and [Am] i will always [E7] go
to the [Dm] sheppherds voice I [Am] know
to the [Dm] sheppherds voice I [Am] know [F7] [Am]

[Am] bones in the valley below
[E7] and the wind begins to blow
[Am] you cannot tell where [Dm] it comes from
[Am] but the bones stand up and [E7] sing along

from [Dm] out of the valley be - [Am] low

CHORUS:
C                             G7
If you know Jesus please tell me
                        C
What about him sets you free
                             G7
I’d love to hear your faith story - ee
                              C
What o-pened up your eyes to see

What words did someone say to you

Or what did you read and know its true

I don’t remember how I knew - ooo
                           C   F G7 C
But now were fam’ly me and you



                              G7
My heart was stony ground I’m sure
                             C
So prone to satan’s world allure
                              G7
Too proud to seek the needful cure - urr
                           C
Too dark to see I was not pure
                             G7
But when I couldn’t fight no more
                                 C
That’s when I felt the father’s draw
                              G7
I heard the Lord right at my door - or
                      C     F G7 C
I’m not the man I was before
