Encouragement for Today
Welcome to a place where you can find encouragement for your daily walk with God!
He Bore It All
My Savior bore that cup of wrath
Poured out on Him alone,
With none to share the awful load
That no one else had known.
He bore God’s wrath against my sin
With all of my disgrace,
And died the death that I had earned
As justice purchased grace.
He bore the pain when, for my sake,
The Father turned away,
The separation I deserved
Was laid on Him that day.
…
My Heart Your Throne
Lord, make my heart a holy place
Devoted all to You,
And by Your Spirit’s strength and grace
My love and zeal renew.
Please help me think like You, I pray,
And make Your precepts clear;
Oh, help me walk with You each day
In humble love and fear.
Reveal Your ways and help me see
The wonders of Your hand;
Exalt Your Word and humble me
To seek and understand.
…
Building on the Bedrock
I’m building on the bedrock
That’s sure and will not shift;
I’m anchored in securely
To what will never drift.
God’s Word is my foundation
That cannot pass away;
The Rock of my salvation
Is changeless day by day.
Though all the highest mountains
May crumble in the sea,
And though the mighty oceans
May rise and threaten me,
…

God’s Signature
God made a solemn promise
And signed it in the sky –
Each time we see a rainbow
We know the world is dry.
God made a solemn promise
And signed it with His Son –
The cross of Christ reminds us
Our pardon has been won.
God made a solemn promise
And signed it like a deed –
His Spirit’s our down-payment
For all that He’s decreed.

White As Freshly Fallen Snow
My heart was red as crimson
With sin and guilt and shame,
But through His death and triumph
My Savior cleared my name.
He took my sinful record
And washed it all away;
His blood has bought my pardon
And makes me clean today.
Now when I sin and fail Him
I come and I confess,
His grace forgives and gives me
His perfect righteousness.
…
Stirred Up
Lord, stir my soul from deep within,
Reveal what’s good and cleanse from sin;
Renew my soul to long for You
And hunger for the Scriptures, too.
Revive my spirit with Your grace
To daily run my Christian race,
To learn and do Your will for me
And serve You with humility.
Incline my mind and heart, I pray,
To seek the things above each day
That I might scorn the devil’s lies
And win with joy the lasting prize.
…
God’s Love for Me
God’s love for me is boundless –
It’s deeper than the sea
And won’t run out no matter
How much He does for me.
God’s love for me is endless –
It never fades away.
He’ll always truly love me
Forever and a day.
God’s love for me is changeless –
No matter what I do
He sets His love upon me
Each day again like new.
…
The Lord Our God
The Lord our God is mighty –
Immortal King of kings
Whose glory fills the heavens
As all creation sings.
His strength is very gentle,
His tenderness is strong,
While holiness and mercy
To God the Lord belong.
He made us for His glory
To show His skill and love,
His wisdom and kindness
Are shining from above.

Let God Write the Story
So often as we talk through life
We want to know the ending;
We want to see it all work out
When things are just beginning.
But God most often doesn’t show
The map of where He’ll lead us;
He simply shows us day by day
The way to live for Jesus.
He knows the end, and that’s enough –
By faith we must believe it;
He’ll give us grace to get us through
If only we’ll receive it.

I Saw the Light of Heaven
I saw the light of heaven
As Jesus took my hand
And gently came and brought me
To heaven’s perfect land.
He led me ‘cross the Jordan
Then through the pearly gates:
“Now welcome home, my daughter,
Come see what joy awaits!”
“Well done” is what He told me
And gave a radiant crown;
He’d seen my love and worship
And wrote my service down.
…
O Lord, Restore My Soul
O Lord, who lifts the fallen
And gives the weary rest,
Who heals the broken-hearted
And rescues the oppressed.
Please hear my prayer and help me
In this my time of need
For I’m so weak and weary –
Lord Jesus, intercede.
My hope and expectation
Is in Your grace and love
For You’re so strong and willing
To help me from above.

The Fullness of God’s Blessings
Oh the fulness of His blessings
Oh the riches of His grace
Oh the glory of His power
Shown in Christ my Savior’s face
Oh the brightness of His favor
Oh the wisdom of His plan
Oh the price He paid to save me
God Himself becoming man
Oh the treasure of His Scriptures
Oh the depth of love divine
Oh the length and breadth of mercy
Making life and heaven mine
