Music Camp

Permanent Linkby Samer on July 20th, 2007, 10:16 pm

Well, I just got back from music camp...I sure do miss... ... ... uh, it.

Here are a couple of the new songs that blessed me:

The Spotless Lamb by Abe Prevette:
1. Glory to the Name of Jesus Christ the Saviour; He is spotless and He's pure (what a Saviour). Precious blood He gave upon the cross of Calv'ry, what a precious Friend is He (what a Friend is He)!

Chorus: Praise to Him who loved us and washed us from our sins. His own precious blood made us clean deep within; Oh, the spotless Lamb, we will praise and adore; Unto Him be glory now, and forevermore!

2. There's no other dearer, and there's none who's nearer, Jesus is the only cure (what a Saviour). Glory and dominion to the Lamb of Calv'ry, What a Friend is He (what a friend is He)!

(Chorus)

Coda: May the church be spotless, no blemish to be found; Praise the Lamb, for we are washed in the blood of the Lamb (spotless Lamb)!

Our Father's Land by Phillip (Dale) Garrison:
1. Our fathers settled this land of ours from sea to shining sea. They believed it was a gift of God, a place where men could be free. They founded a nation on His Word and swore allegiance to Him, But somehow, somewhere along the way we've allowed the light to grow dim.

Chorus: This is (Yes, this is) our Father's land. Oh, let (Oh, let) us take a stand, And claim (Yes, reclaim) it back again and God will surely restore; He loves ev'ry one of us, we say (Oh, yes, we say) in Him we trust, We must right now turn away from sin and reclaim our nation once more (once more).

2. They built their churches throughout this land and worshipped God in love. They declared this truth, self-evident, that God looked down from above. The churches and schools went hand-in-hand and taught their children to pray. I wonder now where it all went wrong, just where we went astray.

(Chorus)

3. We're still one nation under God, no matter what some say. We have compromised with evil men and let them lead us astray. We've got to turn back to God right now and let Him heal our land. He's calling now ev'ry child of His to repent and take a stand.

(Chorus)

May the Lamb that was slain receive the reward of His suffering!
He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. (Psalms 103:10-12)

It lasts two weeks. I had to leave Wednesday, but Rachel (joyfulpraise93) is still there until the end of next week.
The sight-reading/sight-singing stuff is really cool with the shape notes (do re mi fa so la ti do). I wish I could've stayed to learn more (and uh...other things, mainly), but work calleth.

I haven't heard either of these songs, but I really love the lyrics to the first one. Thanks for posting it. God bless.

I miss...camp too. :P Bro. Abe is a true man of God, and I always enjoy the songs he writes.

I liked this song:

He's the Author and Finisher

v1: Jesus opened up the way to Heaven's glorious city when He died on Calvary;
Full salvation was provided through His sacrifice, now we can live eternally!

ch: He's the Author and Finisher of my faith, yes, Jesus really is! For He died and rose again just to take away my sin! He's the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End; Interceding now at Heaven's throne, soon He's coming back to earth again!

v2: With His blood He wrote my name in Heaven's Book of Life, He made me whole and set me free; What a joy to know His pardon! What hope I have! Yes, Jesus made a change in me!
