Home by Homes



         A
Whenever I am feeling low

         F#m
I look around me and I know

           D                       A
There's a place that will stay within me

         E
Wherever I may choose to go

        A                F#m
I will always recall the city

D                       E
Know every street and shore

F#m                  A
Sail down the river which brings us life

Bm                        E
Winding through my Singapore


Chorus:

         A      E
This is Home, truly

D              A
Where I know I must be

F#m                   A
Where my dreams wait for me

           Bm            E
Where that river always flows

         A     E
This is home, surely

D             A
As my senses tell me

F#m           C#m           D
This is where I won't be alone

             E                 A
For this is where I know it's home

- End of Chorus -


                A
When there are troubles to go through

             F#m
We'll find a way to start anew

          D              A
There is comfort in the knowledge

               E
That home's about its people too

           A                F#m
So we'll build our dreams together

D                        E
Just like we've done before

F#m                        A
Just like the river which brings us life

Bm                       E
There'll always be Singapore



Chorus Repeat x2


             E                 A
For this is where I know it's home

             E                 A
For this is where I know I'm home

Lyrics 
Whenever I am feeling low
I look around me and I know
There's a place that will stay within me
Wherever I may choose to go
I will always recall the city
Know every street and shore
Sail down the river which brings us life
Winding through my Singapore

This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home

When there are troubles to go through
We'll find a way to start anew
There is comfort in the knowledge
That home's about its people too
So we'll build our dreams together
Just like we've done before
Just like the river which brings us life
There'll always be Singapore

This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home

This is home truly, where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
This is home surely, as my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone, for this is where I know it's home

For this is where I know it's home
For this is where I know I'm home

The Life of His Son in me


THE LIFE OF HIS SON IN ME (THE WILDS MUSIC) - Special thanks to Sis Dawn for the sharing. 

The God who spoke the worlds into their glorious array, whose hosts of angels run at his command. Has stooped to deal with Adam’s race & brought to them His saving grace, a new creation now to make according His plan. 

CHORUS: He’s working in me both the willing & the doing of His pleasure. With pow’r that hasn’t any boundary! Because His Word is sure, I am secure in claiming this great treasure! The life of His Son in Me!  

The heaven’s declare the glory of God, the rocks cry out His praise. 
The stars keep on their course by his decree. But yet, He’s chosen to engrave upon the hearts of those He saved, The image of His blessed Son for all the world to see! 


CHORUS: He’s working in me both the willing & the doing of His pleasure. With pow’r that hasn’t any boundary! Because His Word is sure, I am secure in claiming this great treasure! The life of His Son in Me!  

With fear & trembling joy, i view the workings of my God, in using me to make His glories known! He’ll never leave his work undone, He will perform what He’s begun, ’Tis mine to claim the promises, and run the race He’s shown (AMEN!!!)


CHORUS: He’s working in me both the willing & the doing of His pleasure. With pow’r that hasn’t any boundary! Because His Word is sure, I am secure in claiming this great treasure! The life of His Son in Me!

THE QUIET SERMON

A member of a certain church, who previously had been attending services regularly, stopped going.
After a few weeks, the pastor decided to visit him.
It was a chilly evening. The pastor found the man at home alone, sitting before a blazing fire.
Guessing the reason for his pastor's visit, the man welcomed him, led him to a comfortable chair near the fireplace and waited.
The pastor made himself at home but said nothing.  In the grave silence, he contemplated the dance of the flames around the burning logs.  After some minutes, the pastor took the fire tongs, carefully picked up a brightly burning ember and placed it to one side of the hearth all alone.
Then he sat back in his chair, still silent.
The host watched all this in quiet contemplation.  As the one lone ember's flame flickered and diminished, there was a momentary glow and then its fire was no more.  Soon it was cold and dead.
Not a word had been spoken since the initial greeting.  The Pastor glanced at his watch and realized it was time to leave.  He slowly stood up, picked up the cold, dead ember and placed it back in the middle of the fire.
Immediately it began to glow, once more with the light and warmth of the burning coals around it.
As the pastor reached the door to leave, his host said with a tear running down his cheek, "Thank you so much for your visit and especially for the fiery sermon.  I shall be back in church next Sunday."
We live in a world today, which tries to say too much with too little.  Consequently, few listen.
Sometimes the best "sermons" are the ones left unspoken.
