All Thanks Belongs to You oh Lord

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 28, 2025
All thanks belongs to You oh Lord
Creator of both Heaven and Earth
God of the seen and unseen realms
Creator of the universe
Yours is the greatness and the power
The glory, majesty and splendour
For everything in Heaven and Earth
Is Yours, oh Lord, forever and ever
Yours, oh Lord, is the Kingdom
You’re in control, oh King of Kings
Wealth and honour come from You
You are the Ruler of all things
In Your hand are power and might
By Your discretion You make great
And give strength to Your chosen ones
Your glorious Name we celebrate
[Inspired by 1Chron. 29:11-13]

Be Exalted in My Heart, LORD

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 27, 2025
Be exalted in my heart, LORD
Be exalted when I pray
In each thought that comes to mind, LORD
And in every word I say
Be exalted in my actions
Be exalted every day
In my walk and in my standing
Be exalted every way
Be exalted in my worship
Be exalted in my song
In my testimony of You
Be exalted all day long
You’re exalted in the heavens
Far above the stars that shine
Far above angelic creatures
You’re exalted, GOD divine
Be exalted on the earth LORD
May creation give You praise
For all things were made by You, for You
Oh, Ancient One of Days

How do I Describe Indescribable Love

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 27, 2025
How do I describe indescribable love
Or explain unexplainable grace
Or fathom the fathomless might of Your Word
Or the Glory that shines in Your face
The impossible does not exist where You are
The miraculous is commonplace
In Your presence no illness, nor bondage can stay
And even death is laid waste
How do I conceive inconceivable work
Of Your hands wrought by infinite mind
An incredible, unending universe
And Your precious possession: mankind
So I stand in awe of Your awesome throne
Omnipotent, sovereign King
And I worship amazed, Omnipresent God
In Your Light as Your praises I bring
Omnicient Lord of my life I will hide
In the shadow of Your holy wings
In Your secret place I’ll abide evermore
For in love and joy my heart sings

There’s a Song in My Heart

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 26, 2025
There’s a song in my heart
And it tells of GOD’S grace
And His plan of redemption
For this human race
There’s a song in my heart
Of worship and praise
Which I sing reverently
To the Ancient of Days
There’s a song in my heart
That will never grow old
For its source is eternal
Its worth more than gold
There’s a song in my heart
Dedicated in love
And I sing it in joy
To my Father above

Wasted Lives with None to Care

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 21, 2025
Wasted lives with none to care
Lives lived in darkness and despair
So many talents unfulfilled
In many graves forever stilled
Plastic faces, hidden sighs
And smiles that seldom reach the eyes
Hollow laughter, empty mirth
Shallow conversationalists
There is a doorway out of this
There is a key to happiness
beckons one and all
Friend, won’t you heed our Saviour’s call
Fulfill your destiny in HIM
Your cup will overflow its brim
Invest the talents you’ve received
That many more may be conceived
Allow His love to flow through you
And daily mold your life anew
You’ll know the comfort of His peace
And love and joy that will not cease

Isn’t our LORD GOD Marvelous

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 20, 2025
Isn’t our LORD GOD Marvelous
Isn’t He simply Wonderful
He sits upon the throne in Righteousness
Isn’t our LORD GOD Beautiful
Isn’t He All Glorious
In truth and justice rules the universe
Isn’t our LORD Magnificent
Isn’t He Resplendent
His Radiance outshines the sun so bright
Isn’t He Majestic, Regal in His splendor
Distinguished, Awe- inspiring in our sight
Our LORD worthy of our praises, thanksgiving, and our worship
Our Omnipotent, Omniscient KING of kings
Our LORD is worthy of our righteousness, our time, our love and faithfulness
Our Omnipresent Ruler of all things

You’re the Rock of My Salvation

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 18, 2025
You’re the Rock of my salvation
You’re my shelter from life’s storms
You’re the Alpha and Omega
You’re the Star who greets the dawn
You’re the water in the wilderness
Eternal healing Spring
You’re the beauty of each sunset
You’re my Saviour, You’re my King
You’re my Fortress, my Deliverer
You’re the Wind beneath my wings
You’re my Hope of life eternal
God to whom my spirit clings
You’re the Righteousness within me
You’re the Grace who set my free
You’re my Love without an ending
You are everything to me

Open Up the Door to Me

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 16, 2025
Open up the door to Me
And I will come and sup with thee
Invite Me in your heart to stay
And I will walk with you each day
Keep your eyes on things above
And I will fill you with My love
Keep your conversation pure
And I will teach you to endure
All My precepts I’ll impart
Upon the tablets of your heart
Walk within My Spirit’s power
In your every waking hour
Go to the children of the night
And preach the Gospel of My Light
Bring the lost sheep from the cold
Safely to My waiting Fold
Soon I’ll come upon the clouds
To fetch My eager, waiting crowds
Who have been faithful to My Name
Forevermore with Me to reign

LORD, You’ve Never Let Me Down

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 13, 2025
LORD, You’ve never let me down
You’ve always stood by me
However tough the going got
You’ve never let me be
When I have felt defeated
You spurred me on to win
You’ve been my inspiration
A buffer against sin
Whenever I felt weary
You gave me strength anew
You’ve led me on to greater heights
Of glory within you
And with Your hand to guide me
I’ll follow where You lead
For You’re the Way, the Truth, the Life
Yes, You are GOD indeed

Every Sickness and Every Disease

Published by Hillary van Eyssen on February 11, 2025
Every sickness and every disease
Every unbearable pain
Vanished as soon as they came face to face
With the Spirit filled Son of man
The paralyzed walked and the seizures ceased
The demon possessed were set free
The deaf heard, the mute spoke, the barren bore fruit
And those who were once blind, could see
Leppers were cleansed and the dead raised to life
stilled the raging storm
A multitude fed on two loaves and five fish
Yet the Pharisees laughed Him to scorn
The Son of GOD stood on a mountain high
His face shining like the sun
His clothes became white as the radiant light
While John, James and Peter stood stunned
They saw Moses, Elijah and converse
In the glory that seemed like a shroud
Then a bright cloud enveloped the three of them
And GOD spoke from within the cloud
This is My Son whom I love and with whom
I am well pleased, so listen to Him
Afraid, they fell face down upon the ground
Astonished by what they had seen
As the Son of man, spread the Good News
In power wherever He went
As the Son of God, He forgave man’s sins
And His heart for Jerusalem rent
As the Son of man He died on the cross
Beaten and bloodied and scorned
As the Son of God He sits on the throne
In crown and scepter adorned
