God's Plans For You

God's Plans For You 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

When troubles come and the floor

Starts to break under your feet 

Then the enemy comes 

With the familiar speech 

If God truly loves you 

You would not be going through this 

If God truly loves you 

Would He not get you out of this?

Heed not the lies of the enemy 

Who comes only to steal, kill and destroy 

But remember God's Grace and Mercy 

And you shall be filled with true peace and joy

The Lord knows the plans He has for you

Plans to prosper you and not to harm you 

Plans to give you hope and a future 

So be still and trust the Lord's plans for you 

Trust in the Lord with all your heart 

And lean not on your own understanding 

Whatever you are going through

Surely did not escape the Lord's planning 

The Lord loves you and 

He will never leave you 

In Him firmly stand 

And let His Word lead you

The punishment for our sins 

So that now God can look 

At us all as without sin

Who Is the Chosen One?

Who Is the Chosen One?

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Who is the Chosen One?

The firstborn of the dead 

Who is, who was, and who is to come

The ruler of the kings of the earth 

The King of kings 

The Lord of lords

The Beginning 

And He's the End 

The Cornerstone 

The builders rejected 

Immanuel

And the one Good Shepherd 

The Way, the Truth

And the Life 

The Son of God

Jesus Christ 

God's Hand Is There

God's Hand Is There 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Through raging storms 

And desert heat

Through death and wrongs 

And all things bleak 

Through pits and valleys 

And darkened nights 

I see God's Mercy

And His bright Light 

His Hand is there 

To lift and hold 

His Glory comes 

So loud and bold 

Come To Christ

Come To Christ

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Come to Christ

Who are heavy-laden 

Come to Christ 

Who are deeply saddened 

Come to Christ 

Who are dead and lost 

Come to Christ 

And take up the cross

Come to Christ 

For His burden is light 

And in Christ 

You'll gain eternal life

Our Trust in Christ Alone

Our Trust in Christ Alone

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

We place our trust 

In Christ alone 

To Him we cast 

Our cares and storms

We lean upon 

His Mercy and Grace 

And we take on 

His strength for the race 

We bear the cross

Daily and completely 

We know the cost 

Is certainly worth it 

We have no doubt 

Of His power and love 

Risen from death 

And now seated above

Firmly Stand

Firmly Stand 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

The dark thick clouds 

Come to surround 

The thunders loud 

And the heart pounds 

But do not fear 

The Lord is near 

Hand Him the steer 

And rest in cheer 

Letting Him 

Lead the way 

Trusting Him 

All the way 

Victory is 

In His hand

So in the Lord

Firmly stand 

Keep On Going

Keep On Going 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

When the rain keeps pouring 

When the winds keep blowing 

When the storms unceasing

And the climb so tiring 

Do not give up 

Keep on going 

Look to the Lord 

And keep trusting 

His Mercy and Grace 

Will see you through 

Keep running the race 

God is with you 

Set Free Through Christ

Set Free Through Christ 

By Dr Marilyn Bouniu 

Christ Jesus had 

Come to set you free 

From sin and death 

Through Blood completely 

His Blood shed

At the cross

For all those 

Dead and lost 

To bring us all 

Back to Him 

Made whole again

Pure and clean

Forever with Him 

Through Mercy and Grace 

Life eternal in 

The heavenly place

Continue On

Even though the opposition is strong 

Even though everyone says you're wrong 

Even though the challenges are great 

Continue to walk narrow and straight 

Even though no one agrees with you 

Even though you are extremely tired 

Remember God's Word is always true 

Carry on in His Strength and Fire 

Even though the times are very slow 

Even though you face both drought and storm 

Trust in the Lord and fruits will grow 

Submit all things to His great Throne
