Lyrics below:

REST, MY SOUL

Rest, my soul. Rest, my soul

In the loving heart of Jesus.

There, we find everything we need,

O how much he loves us.

Though the journey may be long,

If we walk with him,

Tired and weary we may be,

We are at rest within.

Repeat all.

Coda:

Rest, my soul.

Rest, my soul.

Rest, my soul.

HEAL US, JESUS

Savior in each moment,

Jesus, Lord and God,

Be with us, we need you,

Help us truly feel your love.

Hurt filled memories of the past

Keep coming into view.

Pains that once had been

Break our hearts anew.

Chorus:

Heal us, Jesus,

You are Savior of us all.

Your love is what we need

To rise and stand tall.

Heal us, Jesus,

Hold us tightly by the hand.

Jesus, Lord and Savior,

With you, we live again!

Ailing bodies need your touch,

Jesus, make us whole,

Grant us healing of body,

Of heart, and mind, and soul.

Repeat Chorus

Coda:

Jesus Lord and Savior

With you, we live again!

BLESSING  May Jesus grant you all the healing that you need, and with his healing love, may you heal others, in his name.

THANK YOU FOR THE HEALING, JESUS

Thank you for the healing, Jesus,

Thank you, truly, Lord.

Hold me closer to your heart,

Help me listen to your Word.

Treasures are awaiting me,

Gifts of your love,

Blessings beyond measure,

Pouring from above.

Thank you for your gift of peace,

Of joy beyond compare,

Thank you for your gift of hope,

Your presence and your care.

Thank you for your gift of life,

And for freedom, too.

Thank you for your Spirit, Lord,

Jesus, I thank you.

(Quiet time for mentioning persons, other gifts, /thank Jesus for).

For all these and more,

Jesus, I thank you.

HEALING WATERS OF BETHESDA

Healing waters of Bethesda,

Giving strength to start anew  

To live in Christ , gift of our Father,

His greatest gift to me, to you.

Healing waters of Bethesda,

Soaking, purging, washing clean,

Op'ning hearts and minds to love and life

To behold what before we had not seen.

Chorus: Come, come, my Jesus, touch my heart today,

Give me healing only you can bring,

Come, come, my Jesus, fill my life today,

With your Spirit, let my spirit sing.

Healing waters of Bethesda,

May I heal in Jesus name,

With the newness of my love and life

God's love and power ever more proclaim.

Chorus: Come, come, our Jesus, touch our hearts today,

Give us healing only you can bring,

Come, come, our Jesus, fill our life today,

With your Spirit, let our spirit sing,

Healing waters of Bethesda,

May we heal in Jesus name,

With the newness of our love and life

God's love and power ever more proclaim,

Mommy's reflection song on the Seven Last Words of Jesus

 Finally got to make a video of this song, in time for First Friday reflection. 

 The lyrics: 

1. FATHER, FORGIVE THEM

FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO

Father, forgive them,

They know not what they do.

They don't see, don't realize

When they sin, they hurt you.

They fail, they falter, they break,

They are feeble, they fall,

Father, forgive them,

I will help them heed your call.

I will help each one to love,

Do your will as they ought,

I intercede on their behalf,

Help them live as I taught.

I have taken them as my own,

Paid dearly for their sin,

I saved them, I cherish them,

This is what my mission has been.

Father, forgive them,

See beyond the wrong they do.

I have given my life for them,

May they all be one with you.

Fill them with the Spirit,

So they love as we love.

Let the journey of each one of them,

End with us in heaven above.

May they some day be home forever

All with us in heaven above.

2. TODAY, YOU WILL BE WITH ME IN PARADISE

Today, you will be with me in Paradise,

I have given my life so you may live.

At the moment that you leave this earth,

A special blessing to you I give.

Have no fear, I am with you,

I am right here by your side.

As you journey home to Our Father,

I am your companion, your guide.

The way is long, now the end is near,

Soon your waiting will be over.

As you go, there is no need to fear,

With my love, your sins I cover.

I have asked Our Father for his mercy,

With love, he has given it to you.

As you breathe your last, as your heart stops to beat,

I am with you, I love you.

I am with you, I love you.

3. WOMAN, BEHOLD YOUR SON

Woman, behold your son,

Son, behold your mother.

I love you both so very much,

I give you each other.

Child, love my mother,

With a very special love,

From all time, she was chosen

To bring you life from above.

She will guide you,

She will mold you,

She will help you be like me.

Pray for you, cherish you,

Help you be the best your meant to be.

She's my mother, how I love her,

Every pain I felt, she felt too.

Make her happy by your love for me

She will help you love as I do.

Child, love my mother, as I do.

4. MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Why are you so far away from me,

From the sound of my groaning?

I have been yours from birth,

from my mother's womb,

you have been my God

Oh Lord be not far from me

Oh my strength come quickly to my help.

My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?

5. I THIRST

I hear you say I thirst

As you suffer and die for me

You yearn for love I do not give

Your love I fail to receive.

Yours was such a cruel death,

You endured so much pain.

If only to show me I am loved,

They say you would do it all again.

Help me believe, Oh Jesus

Change my cold, uncaring heart,

help me to heal Oh Jesus

Teach me to love.

My heart can never rest

Til it rests in you,

I want to love you, Oh Jesus,

Help me to be true.

I give my heart to you Oh Jesus,

May it be a place of rest for you.

6. IT IS FINISHED.

It is finished.

You bow your head and soon will die.

Your sufferings have been far too much,

I don't know the reason why.

You gave your life,

so we may live.

You taught and healed and loved us

Forgave and helped us to forgive.

It is finished

Your father glorifies his son

For the work you came to do for him

You have so lovingly done.

Through your passion and death

You gave us life

Jesus our Lord and God

May we all rise as you rise.

Jesus our Lord and God

May we all rise as you rise.

7. FATHER, INTO YOUR HANDS I COMMEND MY SPIRIT

Father into your hands,

I commend my spirit

All I did, I did for you

With my heart completely in it.

I did the best I could

to help all know your love.

I promised that with you and me

They have a home in heaven above.

I go now to prepare a place for them,

As I return to your embrace.

When you see each one Oh Father,

I pray you see my face.

Bless them with your choicest blessings,

Love each one as you love me.

I gave my life so they may live,

May your will for each one come to be.

Father into your hands, I commend my Spirit

And each one you have given me.
