Track 1 - Washing the Feet of My Family
Words and music by Abigail Miller
Washing the dishes, making the beds, combing the knots out of curly heads,
Making the meals, folding the clothes, where does it end? Nobody knows…
Chorus:
But I’m washing the feet of my family,
Lord, let me do it with joy.
When I’m washing the feet of my family,
I’m a servant in the Savior’s employ.
Each little task, no matter how small, is something I’m giving,
I’m giving my all.
I’m washing the feet of my family,
Serving the Savior with joy.
I’m a big helper, I’m a great cook, read my sister a story from her favorite book.
Take out the trash, pick up the floor, no matter what I do, there’s always more.
Chorus
And even if you’re far away from the family of your birth,
Serving among the family of God is the sweetest joy on earth.
I’m…Chorus
Track 2 - God Wants to Hear You Sing
Words and music by Rodney Griffin; Used by permission
Their chains were fastened tight
Down at the jail that night,
Still Paul and Silas would not be dismayed.
They said, “It’s time to lift our voice,
Sing praises to the Lord,
Let’s prove that we can trust Him, come what may.”
Chorus:
God wants to hear you sing
When the waves are crashing round you,
When the fiery darts surround you,
When despair is all you see.
God wants to hear your voice,
When the wisest man has spoken,
And says your circumstance is as hopeless as can be,
That’s when God wants to hear you sing.
He loves to hear our praise,
On our cheerful days,
When the pleasant times out weigh the bad by far,
But when suffering comes along,
And we still sing songs,
That is when we bless the Father’s heart.
Chorus
When the wisest man has spoken,
And says your circumstance is as hopeless as can be,
That’s when God wants to hear you sing.
God wants to hear you sing.
Track 3 - Let All the Earth (Psalm 33:8-9)
Non-Scripture Words and music by Abigail Miller
Chorus:
Let all the earth fear the Lord,
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him,
For He spake, He spake, and it was done.
He commanded and it stood fast.
Psalm thirty three, verse eight…
My God is very great.
Psalm thirty three, verse nine…
Oh, what a great God is mine!
Chorus
For He spake, He spake, and it was done.
He commanded and it stood fast.
He commanded and it stood fast.
Track 4 - Turn the Tide
Words and music by Abigail Miller
When America was founded, she was strong and pure and good,
And her leaders on their knees were not ashamed to call on God.
But our nation, in her pride, has turned her back upon the right,
And the clouds of evil threaten to turn glory into night.
Strong wickedness has crept in like a cold and bloody thief,
Those who know the Lord and do His word stand by in disbelief.
For the love of God and country, we must not cease for a day,
For the future of our children we must lift our hearts and pray…
Chorus:
Turn the tide, Lord, turn the tide,
Open wide the floodgates of Your power.
Stem the flood of wickedness;
Restore, revive, and bless.
Turn the tide.
God’s enemy is hard at work, undermining everywhere,
Breaking down foundations, twisting laws, and setting snares.
He would take away our freedom and replace it with despair,
And he laughs at those opposing him as if they were not there.
But God’s children cannot sit by, we must stand up and defend,
For the battle is not over ’til our King declares the end.
We must work and fight and meet him, not as those that beat the air,
For the greatest weapon in our hands is strong and fervent prayer.
Chorus
Though the waves of immorality may beat upon the shore,
And it seems that all ungodliness is knocking at our door,
We must never give up hope, we must not let them win the war,
We must plead with Him who has the pow’r to cleanse and to restore.
Restore! Lord, turn the tide,
Turn the tide,
Open wide the floodgates of Your power,
Stem the flood of wickedness,
Restore, revive, and bless,
Turn the tide.
Stem the flood of wickedness,
Restore, revive and bless,
Turn the tide!
Track 5 - Call Unto Me (Jeremiah 33:3)
Non-Scripture Words and music by Abigail Miller
Chorus:
Call unto me and I will answer thee,
And show thee great and mighty things.
Great and mighty things, which thou knowest not,
Call unto me and I will answer thee.
A telephone number from God to me,
It’s Jeremiah thirty-three three.
The line is never busy, He always answers me,
And He works in mighty ways that I can not see.
He says… Chorus
Track 6 - A Vessel God Can Use
Words and music by abigail miller
Chorus:
Oh, I want to be a vessel God can use!
When He needs someone to serve, how will He choose?
Empty, cleansed, and ready His service to do,
I want to be a vessel God can use.
Mama has a teapot sitting on the shelf,
Pretty as a picture there, all by itself,
But I never see her turn and take it down,
Even when our company comes ’round.
Mama has a teapot sitting on the stove,
Humble in appearance, it’s not a piece for show,
But it’s always ready for her every need,
Counted on for service faithfully.
Chorus
God has many vessels sitting on the shelf,
No room for usefulness, they’re so full of self,
But the humble vessels, empty and prepared
Are the ones He uses everywhere.
Chorus
Oh, Lord, make me a vessel You can use!
Track 7 - Go to the Ant (Proverbs 6:6)
Non-Scripture Words by Lydia Miller; music by Abigail Miller
Chorus:
Go to the ant now sluggard,
Consider her ways and be wise.
Go to the ant now sluggard,
Consider her ways and be wise.
The Ant is very diligent, she never quits on work,
But sometimes I am tempted to run away and shirk.
Lord, help me to consider, my heart for duty fixed.
And let me be just like the ant in Proverbs six, verse six.
So… chorus (x2)
Consider her ways and be wise.
Track 8 - A Soldier Brave and Strong
Words and music by Abigail Miller
God has given Christian armor to the ones who follow Him,
For without His strength and power we can never conquer sin,
So with peace and truth and righteousness we stand against the wrong,
God is making me a soldier brave and strong!
Chorus:
So I’ll march to the battle with the Sword of the Lord,
And I’ll face every giant by the power of His Word,
Through His might, I will conquer and I’ll sing His triumph song
God is making me a soldier brave and strong.
With the helmet of salvation and the mighty shield of faith,
I must fight until the evil cannot find a hiding place.
With all prayer and perseverance, though the battle seems so long,
One day we will join the great victorious throng.
(Chorus x2)
God is making me a soldier brave and strong!
Track 9 - The King’s Daughter
Words and music by Abigail Miller
Jesus wants me to follow Him,
He wants me to serve and obey.
He alone can wash me from sin,
And help me to please Him each day.
I want to please Him more than anything,
I want to be known as a daughter of the King!
Chorus:
The King’s daughter, all glorious within,
Pure and white, washed from sin.
I want to be just like Him,
He’s making me all glorious within.
Though I’m so young, and very small,
Right now is the time to begin
To give to the Lord my life, my all,
He calls me to come unto Him.
I want to please Him more than anything,
I want to be known as a daughter of the King!
Chorus
He’s making me all glorious within.
Track 10 - Come to Jesus
Words and music by Chris Rice; Used by permission
Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die,
O, raise your head, for love is passing by.
Come to Jesus,
Come to Jesus,
Come to Jesus and live!
Now your burden’s lifted,
And carried far away,
Precious Blood has washed away your stain, so…
Sing to Jesus,
Sing to Jesus,
Sing to Jesus and live!
Like a newborn baby,
Don’t be afraid to crawl,
Remember when you walk
Sometimes we fall, so…
Fall on Jesus,
Fall on Jesus,
Fall on Jesus and live!
Sometimes the way is lonely,
And steep and filled with pain,
So if your sky is dark and pours the rain, then…
Cry to Jesus,
Cry to Jesus,
Cry to Jesus and live!
O, and when the love spills over,
And music fills the night,
And when you can’t contain your joy inside, then…
Shout for Jesus,
Shout for Jesus,
Shout for Jesus and live!
With your final heartbeat,
Kiss the world goodbye,
Go in peace, and laugh on Glory’s side, and…
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus
Fly to Jesus and live!
Sing to Jesus
Shout for Jesus
Fly to Jesus…and live!
Track 11 - Give Him the Glory
Words and music by Kurt LaBouve; Used by permission
Do you remember when, you were drowning in the sea of sin,
Going down for the last time, when you called upon His name?
He reached down his nail-pierced hand, and He lifted you out,
So remember where you were back then, and thank Him for where you are now.
Chorus:
Give Him the Glory for what He’s done in your heart.
He took you from sin and strife and gave a new start.
He took your broken life and made you complete,
So take off those crowns of glory and cast them at the Savior’s feet.
Do you remember when with all your heart you longed to serve Him?
But you didn’t think that Jesus would ever use someone like you.
But look how He’s used your life, since He brought you out,
So remember where you were back then, and thank him for where you are now!
Chorus
So take off those crowns of glory, and cast them at the Savior’s feet.
Track 12 - Complete in Thee
Words and music by Aaron R. Wolfe; Public domain
Complete in Thee! no work of mine,
Could take, dear Lord, the place of Thine.
Thy blood hath pardon bought for me,
And I am now complete in Thee.
Chorus:
Yea, justified, O blessed thought!
And sanctified, salvation wrought!
Thy blood hath pardon bought for me,
And glorified, I too, shall be!
Complete in Thee—each want supplied,
And no good thing to me denied;
Since Thou my Portion, Lord, wilt be,
I ask no more, complete in Thee.
Chorus
Complete in Thee—no more shall sin,
Thy grace hath conquered, reigned within;
Thy voice shall bid the tempter flee,
And I shall stand complete in Thee.
Chorus
Dear Savior, when before Thy bar,
All tribes and tongues assembled are,
Among the chosen I shall be,
At Thy right hand—complete in Thee.
Chorus (x2)
