From the time I spoke Your name

1
From the time I spoke Your name,
Lord, my life's not been the same
Since I called on the only One who'd save me.
When forsaken, in despair—
Who'd have thought that You'd be there!
Now I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!
  Now my eyes begin to see
I'm living as I ought to be,
As this turning, burning God
moves in my heart...
I don't care now how I feel;
I just know that this is real,
And I know, oh Jesus, You're alive!
2
All my friends might think it's square—
Since I touched You, I don't care—
For I've found You're the only life worth living.
Though some mock and criticize,
Lord, they just don't realize
That I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!
3
It's no statue that I call,
Not a picture on the wall,
But a person who lives His life within me.
Wish they'd told me long before,
All You want's an open door
And that really, Jesus, You're alive!

"All my friends might think it's square—

Since I touched You, I don't care—

For I've found You're the only life worth living.

Though some mock and criticize,

Lord, they just don't realize

That I've found out, Jesus, You're alive!"

Hallelujah for such a glorious declaration! Praise Jesus!! I love Jesus Christ. My life belongs to Him.

Amen. calling Oh Lord Jesus! is so sweet. It's not a statue that we call, nor a picture on the wall. As Christians in the Lord's recovery it must be our breathing: Exercise every moment and reading His word must be our Daily diet, then finally Praying must be our thirst quencher to drink Him.

This a glorious song of dedication to the Lord.

I miss singing it with the other dear saints on KNUST campus. Our meetings were always filled with singing and rejoicing in the Lord. Hallelujah for Christ and the church.
