For my Granny, Emma Ellen Milligan

Are you Ready to Praise? God deserves our highest praise no matter what our circumstance.

I wrote this song in 2019 as an additional song to sing at Kids Camp. It went over well so we've incorporated it in Kids Worship and all church worship at my home church.

Praise the Lord with me! He is WORTHY!

Ready to Praise - A

Verse

There is no god like Jesus

He is the King forever

He gave His life to free us

We’ve gathered here together

To give Him our praise

Pre-Chorus

He alone is worthy

He's the one that we adore

What are we waiting for?

Chorus

Gonna raise my hands up to the King

Gonna lift my heart and voice and let it ring

I'm ready to praise, ooh I'm ready to praise

Gonna shout Hosanna, I'm not ashamed

Wanna give the highest glory

To the highest name

I'm ready to praise, Jesus

I'm ready to praise

No matter what the world may do

Every battle that I face

No rock is gonna take my place

I’m gonna praise the Lord

Chorus

Gonna raise my hands up to the King

Gonna lift my heart and voice and let it ring

From way back in 1994. I've Got a Friend was also recorded by my buddies from White Stone and myself.

This is one of my latest worship songs, worship the King with me.

All Of Me

Verse 1

You are set apart, there is no other like Jehovah

Fill my heart, Holy Spirit with Your sweet aroma

All I want is You, and to be in Your presence

Till every part of me, is saturated in Your essence.

Pre-Chorus

I'm sorry for the times I've settled for just a feeling

God increase my faith

Till I only hear what You’re revealing

Chorus

All I have to offer You is all of me, all of me

All I have to lay at Your feet is all of me

Jesus take all of me

Make my heart Your throne, I am Yours alone

Redeemer be my King

Redeemer be my King

Verse 2

I’ve searched high and low

To quench the hunger burning in me

Now I know, Your presence God is all that I need

The peace in Your embrace

So far beyond what I can measure

The fullness of Your grace

Worth more than any earthly treasure

Pre-Chorus

I'm sorry for the times I've settled for just emotion

God increase my faith

Until I give You complete devotion

Chorus

All I have to offer You is all of me, all of me

All I have to lay at Your feet is all of me

Jesus take all of me

Make my heart Your throne, I am Yours alone

Redeemer be my King

Redeemer be my King

Bridge

I'm sorry for the times that I put faith in my own power

Fill my heart again

Jesus with Your holy fire

Chorus

All I have to offer You is all of me, all of me

All I have to lay at Your feet is all of me

Jesus take all of me

Make my heart Your throne, I am Yours alone

Redeemer be my King

Redeemer be my King

Let There Be Peace was one of four songs written in Nov of 2021 to go with a sermon series our pastors were preaching called "The Sounds of Advent."

It goes along with the story of Jesus' dedication at the temple in Luke 2.

Here are the lyrics, I hope you enjoy it, but more than that, I hope you find the Peace of Christ in every season.

Let There Be Peace

Vs 1

At the temple in Jerusalem It was just another day

A young mother and her husband came, their child to dedicate

Simeon reached out and took the baby in his hands

He looked upon his face and saw what only he could understand...and he said

Chorus 1

Salvation is here, here in my arms

I'm holding the maker of the universe

Messiah has come, come to our world

Revealing the light of God to us

Unspeakable joy, I am complete

Looking into the eyes of grace

Let there be peace, let there be peace

The King is born

Vs 2

The parents stood there so amazed at everything they heard

They knew this boy was special so they clung to every word

He said He's gonna rewrite history, He's holy and divine

Then he raised his voice to Heaven and cried out more time

Chorus 1

Salvation is here, here in my arms

I'm holding the maker of the universe

Messiah has come, come to our world

Revealing the light of God to us

Unspeakable joy, I am complete

Looking into the eyes of grace

Let there be peace, let there be peace

The King is born

Bridge

Now here we are so many years later

Still searching for peace where it can't be found

But if we trust in Jesus our Savior

We can proclaim without a doubt

Chorus 2

Salvation is here, here in my heart

I'm holding the maker of the universe

Messiah has come, come to our world

Emmanuel is still God with us

Unspeakable joy, I am complete

And I am covered by His grace

Let there be peace, let there be peace

I've been reborn

Tag

Let there be peace, because of the King

I’ve been reborn

Psalm Of Mary was written to go with an Advent sermon in 2021 by Pastor Gaby Rodriguez in reference to Luke 1:46-55...beautifully performed by my daughter Emma Milligan.

I wrote this as a special song to go with a sermon about 20 years ago.

Christmas, like the rest of the year, is all about Jesus. Most folks just don't know what they're missing.

As Christians, Christmas gives us an extra opportunity to share our faith and God's love with others.

Merry Christmas!!
