The Balm of Gilead

Where two or more are gathered here
In My Name
I Am in the midst you
Don’t you fear
I want to hear, your voice, my dear
You don’t have to run and hide away
You see every time you cry
So do I

Whisper in my ear,
Tell Me how you feel
Are you hurting today
With angels a myriad
I’m Your Balm of Gilead

Where two or more are gathered here
In My name
I Am in the midst of you
Don’t you fear
If you think that things are getting
Much too burdensome, my child
I already faced them, at the Cross
Where I loved you, till I died

Whisper in my ear, tell Me how you feel
Are you hurting today
With angels a myriad
I’m Your Balm of Gilead

Bridge
Yeah though you walk through the shadows
Just a little while
I go to prepare a mansion for you
So tarry by My side
I have sent to you a comforter
To help you know the Power of My Love
Bring all of your troubles to me my child

Whisper in my ear, tell Me how you feel
Are you hurting today
With angels a myriad
I’m Your Balm of Gilead

Words and Music Kelly Sampson Griswold

Jesus Is Our Home

Finally we come
To the place we call our own
We speak our life
And live it, live it out loud …
Jesus is our home

And if we must compromise
For any selfish desire
We know, that in our heart
We’re slipping back
Into the grip of the cold dark mire

We are, because of Christ
We live what we believe
He’s our strength He’s our fortress
Jesus is our home

Even when we die
We will live again in Christ
Our ultimate gain
To live with Him
We are, because of Christ
We live what we believe
He’s our strength He’s our very life
Jesus is our home

Words and music
A Hymn by
Kelly S Griswold

Strength

Smile oh Christian, beaten down
In strength and beauty, stand up tall
Know you know, you need not frown
God is watching judging all

Smile oh Christian, don’t you cry
Christian, hold your head up high
For the one who beats the brow
Shall be one to push the plow

Holding forty thousand pounds
Holding forty thousand pounds
Grasp His grace; His love abounds
Grasp His grace; His love abounds

Smile oh Christian we are one
For together, we will run
Through the forests and the trees
To the golden fields, with ease

Holding forty thousand pounds
Like a feather in the breeze
Holding forty thousand pounds
Like a starling in the feis
