Scars In The Hands Of Jesus

[lighthouse]

Scars In The Hands Of Jesus
My Eyes Haven't Seen,
Nor Have My Ears Heard,
What My Father Has In Store.
But, When I Hear The Song Of The Sweet Singing Birds,
I'm Closer Than I've Been Before.


To That Heavenly Home,
Built By God Alone,
According To His Perfect Plan.
Where The Only Thing There That's Been Made By Man,
Are The Scars In The Hands Of Jesus.








Yes, I'm Headed For A Home Built By God Alone,
Hallelujah, Praise The Lord, I Am.
Where The Only Thing There That's Been Made By Man,
Are The Scars In The Hands Of Jesus.
Where The Only Thing There
That's Been Made By Man,
Are The Scars In My Savior's Hands.
When I See A Mountain, Covered With Snow,
Falling From Heaven Above.
It Makes Me Feel Small, Hardly Nothing At All,
To Know I'll Be A Part Of...


That Mansion World Where The Gates Of Pearl,
They Are Opened By An Angel Band.
And The Only Thing There That's Been Made By Man,
Are The Scars In The Hands Of Jesus.




Yes, I'm Headed For A Home
Built By God Alone,
Hallelujah, Praise The Lord, I Am.
Where The Only Thing There
That's Been Made By Man,
Are The Scars In The Hands Of Jesus.

The Eastern Gate


I Will Meet You In The Morning,
Just Inside The Eastern Gate.
Then Be Ready Faithful Pilgrim,
Lest With You It Be Too Late.


I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
Just Inside The Eastern Gate
Over There...
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning Over There.
If You Hasten Off To Glory,
Linger Near The Eastern Gate.
For I'm Coming In The Morning,
So You'll Not Have Long To Wait.


I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
Just Inside The Eastern Gate
Over There...
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning Over There.
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
Just Inside The Eastern Gate
Over There...
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning,
I Will Meet You
In The Morning Over There.

They'll Know We Are Christians

We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
We are one in the Spirit, we are one in the Lord
And we pray that all unity may one day be restored
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
They will know we are Christians by our love

We will work with each other, we will work side by side
We will work with each other, we will work side by side
And we'll guard each one's dignity and save each one's pride
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
They will know we are Christians by our love

By our love, by our love

And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
They will know we are Christians by our love

We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand
We will walk with each other, we will walk hand in hand
And together we'll spread the news that God is in our land
And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
They will know we are Christians by our love

By our love, by our love

And they'll know we are Christians by our love, by our love
They will know we are Christians by our love

Love is patient, love is kind
Never boasts, not full of pride
Always hopes, always trusts
The evidence of Christ in us

Redeemed, how I love to proclaim it!
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed through His infinite mercy,
His child and forever I am.

Refrain

Redeemed, redeemed,
Redeemed by the blood of the Lamb;
Redeemed, redeemed,
His child and forever I am.

Redeemed, and so happy in Jesus,
No language my rapture can tell;
I know that the light of His presence
With me doth continually dwell.

Refrain

I think of my blessèd Redeemer,
I think of Him all the day long:
I sing, for I cannot be silent;
His love is the theme of my song.

Refrain

I know there’s a crown that is waiting,
In yonder bright mansion for me,
And soon, with the spirits made perfect,
At home with the Lord I shall be.

In the resurrection morning
We will see the Savior coming,
And the sons of God a-shouting in the kingdom of the Lord.

Refrain

When the trump of God shall sound,
When the trump of God shall sound,
It shall wake the sleeping nations,
When the trump of God shall sound!
The dead in Christ shall rise,
The dead in Christ shall rise.

We feel the advent glory
While the vision seems to tarry,
We will comfort one another with the words of Holy Writ.

Refrain

By faith we can discover
That our warfare’ll soon be over,
And we’ll shortly hail each other on fair Heaven’s happy shore.

Refrain

We will tell the pleasing story
When we meet our friends in glory,
And we’ll keep ourselves all ready for to hail the heav’nly King.
