STORMY
© 1976, 2013 Dan Holder
I think it’s stormy inside of me
I feel the thunder and the rain
I need to see some clearing in my soul
I need the sun to shine on me again
I need a friend who will take my hand
Someone who is warm and who is kind
One who will listen and understand
And calm the storm I’m feeling in my mind.
Lord I’ve searched the world so long
Looking for such a friend
But I know that my quest for love
Is about to end.
For there is nobody as warm as you, Lord
No one as tender or as kind
Who can calm my storm the way You do
Thanks for giving me sweet peace of mind
And helping me leave my storm behind
Oh, thanks for giving me sweet peace of mind

SYMPHONY
© 1977,1986, 2013 Dan Holder
I hear the sweet music
I hear the words of love
I feel the tender mercy in the poetry
It sounds so clear and simple
So warm and understanding
Just listen, His word is like a symphony
I hear the sweet music
I hear the words of love
I feel the tender mercy in the poetry
It sounds so clear and simple
So warm and understanding
Just listen, His word is like a symphony
I listen to the melody
Verses flow in harmony
It sounds like a symphony
Every word an inspiration
Every note a celebration
I find it on the pages
The music of the ages
I see the grace of god unfold in history
It satisfies my longing
It fills my heart with truth
And when I hear His word, It’s like a symphony
Listen to the song it sings
The melody of faith it brings
A symphony of holy things
Music part of God’s creation
Lifting me to His salvation
Jesus loves me this I know
For the bible tells me so
I hear the sweet music
I hear the words of love
I feel the tender mercy in the poetry
It sounds so clear and simple
So warm and understanding
Just listen, His word is like a symphony

LIFT HIM UP
© 1986, 2013 Dan Holder
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift Him up to the lonely
Lift Him up to the lost
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift up the one and only
The one who paid the cost
Lift Him up, Holy Spirit
Lift Him up
When He, The Holy Spirit, comes
He speaks not of His own
But glorifies the One who sent Him
The Son upon His throne
The Spirit brings the Father’s gift
The word, and gospel faith
And lifts the blood of Jesus Christ
As life we may partake
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift Him up to the lonely
Lift Him up to the lost
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift up the one and only
The one who paid the cost
Lift Him up, Holy Spirit
Lift Him up
There is no greater gift to man
Than Jesus’ life and loss
There is no higher goal attained
Than kneeling at the cross
The grace I find without of me
Is more than grace within
The Spirit shows me life in Christ
And death in all my sin
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift Him up to the lonely
Lift Him up to the lost
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift up the one and only
The one who paid the cost
Lift Him up, Holy Spirit
Lift Him up
There is one Lord
One Faith
One Life
Completed by His Grace
By pointing me away from self
The Spirit shows
The Savior’s face
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift Him up to the lonely
Lift Him up to the lost
Lift Him up, lift Him up
Lift up the one and only
The one who paid the cost
Lift Him up, Holy Spirit
Lift Him up

HERE AM I
© 1975, 2013 Dan Holder
I wandered away
From all my yesterdays
And tried to forget them
I drifted alone
My body skin and bones
But I could not forget them
My troubles are so many
My joys are all so few
And I’m wondering if I could
Speak with you?
Here am I
Alone and afraid
Here am I, Lord
Here am I
Here am I
Lord, I need a friend
In whom I can depend
Please won’t You stay with me
Oh Lord, Send down your Grace
To shine upon my face
And give sweet peace to me
My troubles are so many
My joys are all so few
And I’m wondering if I could
Speak with you?
Here am I
Alone and afraid
Here am I, Lord
Here am I
Here am I

WONDERFUL LOVE
© 1979, 2013 Dan Holder
Oh, wonderful love!
Jesus has lived for me
And died for me
And rose again to reign forever
Oh, wonderful love!
His life put in my place
And by God’s Grace
Now I can live forever and ever and ever
Love! He loved me so
That on a rugged cross
He spilled His blood for me
And He bought my sinful soul!
And I know that
Soon, so very soon
He’s coming back for me
Oh, what a day it will be
When His wonderful love we’ll see
Oh, wonderful love
This love can be yours today
If you’ll believe
And you will say that He loves you forever and ever
Love! He loved me so
That on a rugged cross
He spilled His blood for me
And He bought my sinful soul!
And I know that
Soon, so very soon
He’s coming back for me
Oh, what a day it will be
When His wonderful love we’ll see
Oh, wonderful love
Oh, wonderful love
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful love

IT’S FUNNY
© 1980, 2013 Dan Holder
While looking through my past
So blind, it makes me laugh
It’s funny how I never
Used my head before
It’s so funny
Funny that I didn’t have
The good and common sense
To accept His life as mine
And all His righteousness
It’s funny, ‘cause I’ve missed
So much happiness
And knowing what I do
About the Gift of love He brought
Any six-year-old could see
My own stupidity
It’s funny
It’s so funny
Funny that I never really listened
To His words I read
Funny that I ignored
The reasons why He bled
It’s funny
But now, my life is safe in Christ
And when I look back it seems
Funny
So funny
It’s funny

Entering the tall wooden doors
Walking over carpet floors
‘Morning, Brother
Morning hymn is 403
Now let’s pray on bended knee
Silence, Brother
Heads begin to nod and fall
Here’s the latest words from Paul
Seems a moment then it’s through
Closing hymn is 402
Amen, Brother
Yes, fine sermon, Reverend Joles
We’ve got to get out and save those souls
Oh, what time’s dinner?
How do you like my brand new car
Gets good mileage goes real far
See you next week, Reverend Joles
You’d better get out and save those souls
Goodbye, Brother
Entering the tall wooden doors
Walking over carpet floors
‘Morning, Brother

I AM NOT ASHAMED
© 1980, 2013 Dan Holder
There was a time when I would hide
My faith from those in whom I confide
I was afraid of ridicule
And so became a Christian Fool
But I’ve been saved by Jesus Christ
By His eternal Sacrifice
He suffered pain, and He suffered scorn
And perished wearing a crown of thorns
He rose again as King of Kings
And now He reigns where angels sing
For all my sin, the Lord was blamed
How could I ever be ashamed
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ
I am not ashamed of the Gospel
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ
For it’s the power of God unto Eternal Life
For in the Gospel we are Blessed
By faith in Jesus’ righteousness
And by His Blood, our lives washed clean
Accounted pure, we’ve been redeemed
Now boldly singing, I proclaim
A risen savior, Christ His name
His Life is ours, His Life is free
Now we can life eternally
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ
I am not ashamed of the Gospel
I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ
For it’s the power of God unto Eternal Life
For it’s the power of God unto Eternal Life
For it’s the power of God unto Eternal Life

TODAY
© 1976, 2013 Dan Holder
Sunrise wakes me, daylight takes me
Through this new and glorious day
Jesus guides me, always with me
Gives me strength in every way
And I can meet my new today
And face it with hope and love
For My Lord Jesus saved my soul
And gives me light sent from above
And I can meet my new today
And face it with hope and love
For My Lord Jesus saved my soul
And gives me light sent from above
Come and share my new today
Help me spend my joys with you
Come let Jesus bring you light
To make your sunrise happy too!
