One Thing Needful

All on the Altar
I have longed for peace, O Lord
And for faith to increase, O Lord
Many times I have earnestly, fervently prayed
But I cannot have rest, O Lord
Or be perfectly blessed, O Lord
Until all on the altar is laid
So I’m yielding my body and soul as I say

I lay all on the altar, the altar, O Lord
Worthy are You to be praised and adored
There is no fear when I’m lost in Your love
Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
All my affection I nail to the cross
Now I count all things for Jesus, but loss
Cleansed and made holy by Your precious blood
I lay all on the altar for You

Wash me, Lord ‘til I am as white as the snow
Ev’ry idol break down
I’m clinging to Your promises as humbly I go

To lay all on the altar, the altar, O Lord
Worthy are You to be praised and adored
There is no fear when I’m lost in Your love
Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
All my affection I nail to the cross
Now I count all things for Jesus, but loss
Cleansed and made holy by Your precious blood
I lay all on the altar for You

Speak to Me
Speak to me, I will listen
Speak to me and I will obey Your voice, my God
Speak to me, I will listen
Speak to me, I will follow You
For You are the Truth, and the Life and the Way
Jesus, I’ll obey

Take my heart and make it yours
Ev’ry part is Yours for Your glory
You alone I long to hear
Ev’ry Word I will hide in my heart

Now I break my fallow ground
Cultivate my heart to receive Your Word
That it may overflow
In ev’ry thought, ev’ry word, ev’ry deed

Speak to me, I will listen
Speak to me and I will obey Your voice, my God
Speak to me, I will listen
Speak to me, I will follow You
For You are the Truth, and the Life and the Way
Jesus, I’ll obey

I Choose to Forgive
Lord, I come to You
Broken and ashamed
Too long I have refused to forgive
I have sinned!
Humbly, Lord, I now confess
And with all my heart repent

I choose to forgive!
I choose to forgive!
Release me from my debt as I rely on You
Restore our fellowship as it was when it was new
Use me for Your glory, Lord, as I reflect Your grace
On this day I choose to forgive

You’ve forgiven me
How can I do less?
For Your glory, Lord, restore my usefulness

I choose to forgive!
I choose to forgive!
Release me from my debt as I rely on You
Restore our fellowship as it was when it was new
Use me for Your glory, Lord, as I reflect Your grace
On this day I choose to forgive
