I started out to follow Jesus many years ago
The road was sometimes slippery and my steps were often slow
I met opposition, I didn't quite know what to do
But I've made up my mind to make it through.
Before the first round started - I said I'll fight until I win
I might even get knocked down, but I'll get up again
I control this temple, and I can't afford to lose
I've made up my mind to make it through.
Years have come and they have gone, this battle has grown old
My mind's made up to win this fight, my faith has not grown cold
The joy of the Lord is still my strength, my confidence is true
My mind is still made up to make it through.
Stand by me Jesus, forgive me somehow
If there's any hope left- don't leave me now
I might be worth saving, I'm trying to be
Jesus, oh Jesus, Don't give up on me.
It's late, I know, and I've made you wait
But don't turn the light out, don't lock the gate
Forgiveness and patience, that's all I need
Jesus, oh Jesus, don't give up on me.

I Claim the Blood
He paid a debt He did not owe... I owed a debt I could not pay.
In Christ Alone is a favorite
In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
‘Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt of life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life’s first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
‘til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
I've had many songs minister to me over the years.
He is my peace (CLC)
I find my peace in you Lord are two that I heard at specific times when I really needed them.

Psalm 19:14
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
1. Looking Down Thru The Ages God Beheld A Dying Soul
Sin Has Brought Separation. Never More Could Man Be Whole
There Must Come A Lamb One Whose Blood Alone Redeems
Bringing Gifts From The Father For Our Soul Made Pure And Clean
Chorus
And When He Sees Me He Sees The Blood Of The Lamb
He Sees Me As Worthy And Not As I Am
He Views Me In Garments As White As The Snow
For The Lamb Of God Is Worthy And He Washed Me This I Know.
2. So He Left That Holy City Traveling On To The Cross
Thus To Bridge The Gulf To Glory And To Rescue The Lost
By His Blood He Entered Into The Throne Room Of Our God
And On The Mercy Seat He Placed It - Salvation For Us All.
Chorus
And When He Sees Me He Sees The Blood Of The Lamb
He Sees Me As Worthy And Not As I Am
He Views Me In Garments As White As The Snow
For The Lamb Of God Is Worthy And He Washed Me This I Know.
My Promise Land
1.
What Makes A Dying Saint Lift Up His Hand
And Thank God For All The Years
He Was Able To Stand
And With A Weary Smile
A Far Away Look In His Eye
He Begins To Say This Prayer
As If He’s Almost There
Cho
Lord Put A White Robe Around Me
And Give Me A Crown To Wear
Let Me Take Your Hand
Let Me Understand It’s Forever
And Lead Me To My Promise Land
2.
So If I Stumble On Life’s Shifting Sand
Just Reach Out Lord And Let Me
Take Ahold Of Your Hand
Tho The Mountain Seems Oh So Tall
And The Road Is Rough
Just One Glimpse Of My Promise Land
That Will Be Enough

I used to sing that song when we evangelized back in the 1980's. The first time I heard it was when my roommate at JCM sang it for a chapel service. My roommate was Sis. Talmadge French.

A dear friend of mine passed away and we'd like to play it
at her funeral.....
