Because Of Jesus



Several months ago, Bro. Jerry Bouey wrote  some  lyrics and sent them to me. I made a few small changes as I set them to music.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When I was lost and all alone,
Jesus melted my heart of stone;
Now there's a wonderful change within;
My heart's renewed, I can reach out again;
~
Because of Jesus, I know that I love you.
Because of Jesus, I want the best for you......
He did a work within my heart;
His love He did impart.
I love you - because of Jesus.
~
There was a time I didn't care.
My heart was wounded beyond repair;
But then God's Spirit worked within;
And he repaired all the hurt caused by sin;
~
Because of Jesus, I know that I love you.
Because of Jesus, I want the best for you......
He did a work within my heart;
His love He did impart.
I love you - because of Jesus.
~
There's a change I now can see;
He healed my heart - He set me free;
Transformed by Love eternally.
I love you - because of Jesus.

For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6:21

It is the time we spend investing in the lives of others that will make the difference to them - in time and in eternity - the time we spend representing Jesus and being like Him in this dark world.

Matthew 9:36 But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
Jude 1:21-23 Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

  2. Sis Deb, I don’t remember if I ever heard the music you wrote for my songs. I can’t read or write music - this is so beautiful. Thank you so much for using the talents the Lord gave you to be a blessing to others.
