searching for hymns/choruses about KNOWING GOD

Pam · Post by **Pam** » Sat Nov 11, 2006 9:17 pm

I am writing a series of Bible studies on knowing God, His attributes and His names. I'd love your help in finding some hymns to be used in each chapter, each highlighting the benefits of knowing God deeply and discovering God's awesome attributes. THANKS!

El Shaddai by Amy Grant

El Shaddai, El Shaddai, El Elyonna Adonai
Age to age you're still the same
by the power of Your name

E. S. E. S. Er Kamkana Adonai
We will praise and lift You high
E. S.

(You can use this chorus before opening prayer. Full lyrics can be found on the Internet).

Have you a heart that's weary
Tending a load of care?
Are you a soul that's seeking
Rest from the burden you bear?

CHORUS
Do you know my Jesus, do you know my friend
Have you heard He loves you, and that He will abide till the end?

Who knows your disappointment?
Who hears each time you cry?
Who understands your heartaches?
Who dries the tears from your eyes?

This is only part of the song,More About Jesus.

More about Jesus I would know
More of His grace to others show
More of His saving fullness see
More of His love who died for me.

Just the time I feel that I've been caught in the mire of self,
Just the time I feel my mind's been bought by worldly wealth,
That's when the breeze begins to blow, I know the Spirit calls,
And all my worldy wanderings just melt into His love.

chorus:
Oh, I want to know You more
Deep within my soul, I want to know You.
Lord, I want to know You.
To feel your heart and know Your mind,
Looking in YOur eyes stirs up within me
Cries that say I want to know You.
Lord, I want to know You more.

Pam, This is a little song we use to sing in our prayer meetings. I have no idea as to who wrote it.

Wonderful, wonderful, Jesus is to me
Counsellor, Prince of Peace, Almighty God is he
Saving me, freeing me
From all guilt and shame
Wonderful is my redeember
O, praise his name.

His Name Is Wonderful
His name is Wonderful, His name is Wonderful,
His name is Wonderful, Jesus my Lord;
He is the mighty King, master of everything,
His name is Wonderful, Jesus, my Lord.
He's the great Shepherd, the Rock of all ages,
Almighty God is He;
Bow down before Him, love and adore Him,
His name is Wonderful, Jesus, my Lord.

The lily of the valley
The bright and morning star
The beautiful rose of sharon
To me that's what you are
The alpha and omega
The beginning and the end
The rock of all ages
A poor lost sinners friend
