My favorite?

The Sweetest Song I Know
by Albert E. Brumley Sr.

I’ve heard them sing “He Paid The Price”
And “Jesus Bore It All”
I’ve heard them sing “I’m Coming Home”
And “Hear The Master’s Call”
I’ve heard them sing the modern songs
And songs of long ago
But “Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound”
Is the sweetest song I know

Amazing grace (Amazing grace, how sweet the sound)
How sweet the sound (Oh how sweet is the sound)
No sweeter song (sweeter song, sweeter song)
Could e’er be found (In this life could be found)
I’ve heard of a fountain (Heard of the dear Savior’s blood)
Filled with blood (That washed us white, white as snow)
But “Amazing Grace” (“Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound”)
Is the sweetest song I know

It was the song my momma sang
In sweet and humble voice
Like music from the world above
It made my soul rejoice
Its soothing words and melody
Like rippling waters flow
Oh, “Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound”
Is the sweetest song I know

Amazing grace (Amazing grace, how sweet the sound)
How sweet the sound (Oh how sweet is the sound)
No sweeter song (sweeter song, sweeter song)
Could e’er be found (In this life could be found)
I’ve heard of a fountain (Heard of the dear Savior’s blood)
Filled with blood (That washed us white, white as snow)
But “Amazing Grace” (“Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound”)
Is the sweetest song I know

Amazing grace (Amazing grace, how sweet the sound)
How sweet the sound (Oh how sweet is the sound)
No sweeter song (sweeter song, sweeter song)
Could e’er be found (In this life could be found)
I’ve heard of a fountain (Heard of the dear Savior’s blood)
Filled with blood (That washed us white, white as snow)
But “Amazing Grace” (“Amazing Grace, How Sweet The Sound”)
Is the sweetest song I know

How Wise Are We, Really?

God’s Own Fool
by Michael Card

Seems I’ve imagined Him all of my life
As the wisest of all of mankind
But if God’s Holy wisdom is foolish to men
He must have seemed out of His mind

For even His family said He was mad
And the priests said a demon’s to blame
But God in the form of this angry young man
Could not have seemed perfectly sane

When we in our foolishness thought we were wise
He played the fool and He opened our eyes
When we in our weakness believed we were strong
He became helpless to show we were wrong
And so we follow God’s own fool
For only the foolish can tell-
Believe the unbelievable
And come be a fool as well

So come lose your life for a carpenter’s son
For a madman who died for a dream
And you’ll have the faith His first followers had
And you’ll feel the weight of the beam
So surrender the hunger to say you must know
Have the courage to say I believe

For the power of paradox opens your eyes
And blinds those who say they can see
When we in our foolishness thought we were wise
He played the fool and He opened our eyes

When we in our weakness believed we were strong
He became helpless to show we were wrong

And so we follow God’s own fool
For only the foolish can tell-
Believe the unbelievable
And come be a fool as well

So we follow God’s own Fool
For only the foolish can tell
Believe the unbelievable,
And come be a fool as well

I pray that we can all realize this truth. And soon.

Jesus Is the Answer Every Time
Don S. Reid / Harold Wilson Reid (1992)

When there’s no good in your good mornings too much hell in your hello
And your kind heart is something less than kind
When you’re thinking more about the thorns than you are the rose
Jesus is the answer every time

Jesus, Jesus is the answer every time
Jesus is the answer every time
Use the Bible for a rule book and I think you’re gonna find
Jesus is the answer every time

When you’re thinkin’ more about the glory than you are the be
And there’s less than good intentions on your mind
When your prayers are filled with things you want instead of things you need
Jesus is the answer every time

Jesus, Jesus is the answer every time
Jesus is the answer every time
Use the Bible for a rule book and I think you’re gonna find
Jesus is the answer every time

Jesus, Jesus is the answer every time
Jesus is the answer every time
Use the Bible for a rule book and I think you’re gonna find
Jesus is the answer every time
Use the Bible for a rule book and I think you’re gonna find
Jesus is the answer every time
Jesus is the answer every time
