Boat

Christians should live in the world, but not be filled with it. A boat lives in the water; but if the water gets into the boat, she goes to the bottom. So Christians may live in the world; but if the world gets into them, they sink. 

- D. L. Moody

Shackles (Praise YOU)

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

In the corners of mind I just can't seem to find a reason to believe That I can break free. 'Cause you see I have been down for so long Feel like all hope is gone But as I lift my hands, I understand That I should praise You through my circumstance.

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

Everything that could go wrong All went wrong at one time; So much pressure fell on me, I thought I was gonna lose my mind. But I know You wanna see If I will hold on through these trials, But I need You to lift this load 'Cause I can't take it no more. 

Get the shackles off my feet so I can dance; I just wanna praise You, I just wanna praise You. You broke the chains, now I can lift my hands; And I'm gonna praise You, I'm gonna praise You. 

Been through the fire and the rain, Bound in every kind of way, But God has broken every chain So let me go …

Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! Yes, Jesus loves me! The Bible tells me so. 

Jesus loves me! This I know, As He loved so long ago, Taking children on His knee, Saying, “Let them come to Me.” 

Jesus loves me still today, Walking with me on my way, Wanting as a friend to give Light and love to all who live. Jesus loves me! 

He who died Heaven’s gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in. 

Jesus loves me! He will stay Close beside me all the way; Thou hast bled and died for me, 

I will henceforth live for Thee.
