Help Wanted Blues, by DianaDee Osborne (guitarist Johnny Kyle)

HELP  WANTED  BLUES
ALBUM:      Amazing  JOY 'n' Choices

Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
       This entire song was built upon a single, accidentally-found  chord. ("Accidentally", in a God incidence way, of course.)   I was checking my guitar’s tuning while waiting for band practice one evening, and “missed” the Em7.  The instant I heard this one, my simultaneous thoughts were, “wow, that’s really cool, God”  and also “what IS that chord?”
      I never have found the chord in my own chord books.  Best I can figure is that since (1)  it adds a B flat into the E minor chord that already contains a natural B as the 5th in chord, but (2) does not remove (mute) the open B string (thus causing a major conflict), therefore  it must be an Em(add b5).  Pattern is {022300}.  Then the companion chord drops in another D on the B string {022330}, which makes it an Em(add9 add b5}.  If I’m wrong, ahhh well…. I’m happy that God gave me the idea for providing “string sets” as part of my invented Osborne Text Notation Method (OTEN) so you guitarists can use them  without really caring what the guitar chord's formal name is!  For pianist, a simple E minor chord works!  
      The bass player works hard with this chord pattern ... (kidding!)   Play a steady  E ☺
      Whatever,  it’s a cool chord FULL of conflict, which is exactly what Paul describes in Romans 7 as our human nature—even when we dearly want to serve and reflect our wonderful God, we keep doing things we know hurt God, or keep missing doing things we know God wants us to do.
       Paul concludes Romans 7 with a version of WOE IS ME.  But God gives us hope through Paul in the first two verses of Romans 8… our salvation is not from our own works, but in depending on God to help us do what is right.  But we must ask God for help.

      And with thanks to Johnny Kyle of J & T Studio for his amazing guitar work!


Dedicated to The Understanding God, 17 July 2010


LYRICS
Part 1:    “For what I am doing,   I do not understand. For what I will   to do, that I do not practice; but what I  hate,  that I do.  For the good that I will to do,  I do not do;  but the evil I will not to do,   that   I practice.”    – Romans 7:15 and 19

Part 2:     “But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.” 
    -- Romans 7:6                              NKJV
Part 3:     “O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death?  There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus,  who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.  For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.” – Romans 7:25 and 

Romans 8: 1 and 2
 

1
I need Your help, God.
I don't want Your help, God.
I  DO  need Your help, God....  just to really want help!
This sin is much fun.
Help me, God   or I'm done.
Romans chapter Seven:
I like sin.......   Please help!

Bridge
I don't do what I want to do.  I don't do what I want to do.
And I do things I don't want to.  And I don things I don't want to.


2
God, who can deliver me from this body of death?  

          Only You!  Only You!
God, who can deliver me from temptations to sin?   

          Only You!  God, please do!

INTERLUDE READINGS
First Corinthians 10: 13
No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man;
 but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation 
will also make the way of escape, 
that you may be able to bear it.
 
James 1:  13- 14
Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.  
But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by 
his own desires and enticed.

Fervent Worship Love (song), by DianaDee Osborne

FERVENT  WORSHIP  LOVE 
ALBUM:      Amazing  Holy Spirit 'n' Church   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/Songs-2008-2012.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE)  Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
       While checking my “Untitled Loops I Like”  folder, I found this music piece I'd created and loved, but had not yet had a song concept for.  As I played the loop, these worship words came to mind as a prayer.  Selecting exact wording to fit the meter was a fun challenge. I had to keep the words as exciting as our Great God is!
        The many studio tracks took a full day to develop... which is still a short  time period by normal standards  to add to the evidence that this is the Holy Spirit's guidance.  I prayed for the right scriptures, and Psalm 107 (a long one) was one of the first few that I noticed in my search.  

        So that's how FERVENT WORSHIP LOVE was written for your worship time, for churches to worship our Lord.... written in  8  hours.

Dedicated to our Lord THE Only God, 25 June 2011

SUPPORTING SCRIPTURE:   PSALM 107
“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! For His mercy endures forever! Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.... Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness.... for     He satisfies the longing soul and fills the hungry soul with goodness.  Those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, bound in affliction and irons -- because they rebelled against the words of God and despised the counsel of the Most High.......
    He saved them out of their distresses. 

He sent His word and healed them  [see Isaiah 53  especially 5-6], 
            and  DELIVERED  them from their destructions.
Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord 
                      for His goodness....
praise Him in the company of the elders.”   [in church]
-- verses from Psalm 107.  New KJV.  Prophecies of Isaiah, in New Living Translation.


LYRICS
1
I worship You!  I do praise You!  I give glory to the Only God!
YOU have saved me!  YOU amaze me!  

YOU alone are worthy of my love!
    YOU alone deserve Worship!
        You alone are Truth and Light!

I worship You with ALL my life.     

I give GLORY to the Only God!
YOU have SAVED me, You AMAZE me,          

LORD, I WORSHIP YOU!

2
Let us worship God, for He is merciful 

and He redeemed us all.
God  sent Jesus to redeem us. 
 

God alone is worthy of our love!
    YOU alone deserve our praise!
        We, Your Church, our voices raise!
We worship You with humble thanks.  We give GLORY to the Only God!
YOU have SAVED us.  WE serve JESUS!        

LORD, WE WORSHIP YOU!

3
We, Your Church do WORSHIP  You, God!   

We unite in worship and our love!
GOD alone can FILL our hunger.  

You alone,  God,   satisfy our soul!
    You alone we glorify!
        YOU alone are The True God.

We worship You with all we ARE.   

We give GLORY to the Only God!
YOU have SAVED us.  WE serve JESUS!         

         LORD,  WE   WORSHIP   YOU!

Truth Seeker's Prayer, by DianaDee Osborne

TRUTH  SEEKER'S  PRAYER
ALBUM:      Amazing  Power 'n' Prayers   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/NEW-Songs.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE)  


Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
        This began as two songs,  with an interesting but average sound.
         I decided to change the piano to an organ, knowing that the sound would be a bit weird with notes running into each other.   PURPOSE OF THE FUNKY SOUNDS on the recording -----  These MIMIC  the way humans talk, acting so wise in their limited bits of knowledge.  Compared to God's Wisdom that He OFFERS to us for FREE -- God's TRUTH  FOR  THE ASKING.
         As I looked for some sound loops,  I'm convinced that God guided me to these funky sounds.... I love the panning of them.   I finished my work for February 12th early,  so started looking for some project I'd started,  to just start adding to it.  But within an hour, I finished ALL of these tracks added to the basic kits and piano recorded back in December.
    YET AGAIN:   WOW -- IT IS THE CREATIVE WORK of God's HOLY SPIRIT!
Dedicated to Jesus, THE Way and THE Truth, 15 December 2012

LYRICS
1
God, I seek to know real Truth.  Know that You are there.
I seek to believe what's Truth -- not myths.   I
declare firmly to this air,
I seek You, God, if You're there.
No one else can hear this prayer......
if that is     what this is.

2
God, I seek to know real Truth.  I see evidence.
I see miracles beyond coincidence.  I
declare firmly through this earth:
I seek Truth and don't need proof.
Scientists can believe facts without pure proof.  They
call it truth.

3
I seek to have more wisdom than human reasoning.
Not to brag -- just to know what's TRUTH --- only.  
I ray to God  James 2, Verse 5.
There I'm promised Truth for Life.
Without wisdom I don't even understand
God's Truth Plan.

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
JAMES 1:5   and   6
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.

Embarrassed Witness, by DianaDee Osborne

EMBARRASSED  WITNESS 
ALBUM:      Amazing  Holy Spirit 'n' Church   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/Songs-2008-2012.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE) 


Song Story:  THE  LYRICS:   
Sometimes I joke with the guys in my two studios that I'm going to get “kicked out of church”  with some of these songs from God.  This version is mild compared to parts of original verses, like  “....things we do inside church walls--- Pushing people to do things our way... calling gossip _ our 'prayer concerns'?”

    And a Revelation 2:19-20 reference to Tolerance within churches; “suffered” = “tolerated” in verse 20... “Compassion” is not a reason to tolerate sin even while loving the sinner -- NOTE that God even invited Jezebel in verse 21.  YET--it's exciting to think that perhaps God's songs may make us more aware of how we offend Him and His Holiness even with our so-called “little sins.” 

    My own repeated giving in to a common sin actually made me open to this song-in-minutes from God.... It doesn't help when friends in church mean well and tell us, “oh, don't worry about it.... It's not important.... lots of people do that..... God will understand....NOT.  God is a Holy God who says "You must be holy as I am Holy."  (1 Peter 1:16, Lev. 11: 44-45,  Leviticus 20:26).

    2nd Corinthians 3:18....    If we reflect God badly, even little things,
    we might hinder other people from coming to Him.    Do we as individuals
    OR     as churches     focus on that Truth?


Dedicated to our HOLY God, 21 October  2010


LYRICS
VERSE 1
Why am I NOT embarrassed  by the things I do alone?
Things I would NEVER do or SAY if Jesus were
visibly right by my arm?        YET HE'S HERE
God I'm desperate!          Help me witness to Your
Glory.  Please fill me      with Your Holy Spirit Power  for Your
Kingdom -- not just for me.  Help me
be a good witness for You!

VERSE 2
Why aren't Christians embarrassed  by the things we do outside church walls?
Things we would NEVER do or SAY if Jesus were
visibly right by our sides?        YET HE'S HERE
God we're desperate!      Help us witness to Your
Glory.  Please fill us  with Your Holy Spirit Power  for Your
JOY through us, Your Church.
  Help us
be a good witness for You!


VERSE 3
Why aren't churches embarrassed  by the 

things we do right within church walls?
Things we would NEVER do or SAY if Jesus were
visibly right by our sides?        YET HE'S HERE!

God we're desperate!      Help us witness to Your
Glory.  Please fill us  with Your Holy Spirit Power  for Your
JOY through us, Your Church.  Help us
be a good witness for You!


READING
First John Chapter One,   verse 2:
Help me, Lord, be a good witness FOR You through my acts.
Second Corinthians 3:18,
Help me reflect You and not cause others to think badly of YOU, I pray.

Tornado Holy Spirit, by DianaDee Osborne

TORNADO  HOLY  SPIRIT 
ALBUM:      Amazing  Holy Spirit 'n' Church   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/Songs-2008-2012.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE) 


Song Story:  
This song concept arose after reading Acts 4:31 specifically (and entire book).  Just think of it!  They SPOKE THE WORD OF GOD WITH BOLDNESS.  How I have prayed to speak thus for God through songs!

      In PRAYERS OF A GOD CHASER, Tommy Tenney urges, "God is calling the church to spring into flame and catch the world on fire in His Name.  The only way to capture the fiery passion of God's heart is to draw near His heart so He can impart His desires to us.  Once we receive them we can *speak them* into the earth with authority....” (Crossroad Publishing, page 99).   

          Yet many of us even in the church are like I once was -- rather afraid to ask God to send His Holy Spirit.  What would that do?  Would I start acting crazy?  (Well, crazier than usual :)

    So let's look at the logic here:                                        
    (1)  Jesus loves us so much that He died on the cross for us so that we can live forever with Him.  Jesus loves YOU so much that He died on a cross for you......

    (2)  Jesus said in Luke 11:13 that God will fulfill His example from back in Isaiah 63:11 where God “put His holy Spirit within him”, promising that “"If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!"

    (3)  Thus, Jesus who LOVES us says that the Holy Spirit is a GIFT from God who LOVES us..... a GOOD gift. 

    Yes, it's a bit scary to give ourselves to God without reservation.  We like to control our lives to details, quite often.  But God loves us... and just think of the Power that not only we but God's Church Body could have if we would only URGENTLY pray for the tornado power of His Spirit to sweep through our lives, our church, our world to draw people to glorify God!


Dedicated to our Holy God, 25 June 2010


LYRICS
1
Tornado Holy Spirit pow'r sound great but gives some fear.  I've
only worshiped quietly in church for many years.  But
what Your world does NOT need God, is
just a gentle breeze!

HERE   I  AM!     I  AM  YOURS!
Blow Your Tornado Holy Spirit  POWER..........
through ME!
 

2
I'm on my knees in gratefulness for
all You, God, have done.  I
yearn to do a million times more to serve Your great Son.  I
humbly ask You, Holy Spirit,
Teach Your words through me!
HERE   I  AM!        I  AM  YOURS!
Blow Your Tornado Holy Spirit  POWER..........   through ME!


3
You, God, deserve such honor, worship,
praise beyond my words.  I
humbly beg, anoint me with Your
power to do great works.  Give
me, give all Your Church power to
teach Your Truth through the World!
HERE   WE ARE!        WE ARE  YOURS!
Blow Your Tornado Holy Spirit  POWER..........    through US!

Snooze Alarm Prayer, by DianaDee Osborne

SNOOZE  ALARM  PRAYER
ALBUM:      Amazing  LORD 'n' Logic   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/Songs-2008-2012.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE) 


Song Story:  
The initial music is supposed to sound like an annoying little alarm clock...  followed by blessed quiet with just chord and no trilling notes. The inspiration for this song is obvious:)  Note that this song (1) references DianaDee's key verse 2nd Corinthians 3:18, and (2) reflects the website motto for DiDoReflections: 
    “DIe to self, DO for Christ, Reflect God, all with the
    Holy Spirit's gifts of power and wisdom.”  
We worship our One Great God in all three of His representative Persons --
    Father God,    
    Son Jesus,     and
    Holy Spirit.

Three in one:  As H20  can be seen as  ice,  steam, and  water -- but always H20. 

Dedicated to our Guiding Lord, 17 April 2010 
 
Song Story:  THE  LYRICS:   
Dedicated to our Lord,




JESUS's  COMFORTING WORDS --- JOHN 14
“Believe Me that I [am] in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. .. He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved by My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him."  --  Jesus in John 14:  11 and 21  NKJV

LYRICS
1
THE ALARM RINGS
“On my knees”  I lie in bed,
ashamed of things I've done, I've said.
My feet have not yet touched the floor.  I
thank You, God, for Your mercy of one more....


SLAMMING the SNOOZE BUTTON brings PEACE...    for a few minutes.
 

  ...     day to worship You..... one more
    day to serve and love YOU, my God.  BUT  I
    NEED  Your  help.  Without YOU,  I will  FAIL.
    Holy Spirit, please guide me.  Jesus,
    help me reflect Thee.
2
ALARM RINGS AGAIN
 
To my knees I fall by my bed.  I
need YOU, God, in this day ahead.
Through this day I shall pray much more.  But
this prayer's special, on my floor as I ...
 

HITTING the SNOOZE BUTTON brings PEACE...    for a few more minutes.
....     praise and worship  You.   IN THIS
    DAY,  I  serve and love YOU, my God.  BUT  I
    NEED  Your  help.  Without YOU,  I will  FAIL.
    Holy Spirit, please guide me.  Jesus,
    help me reflect Thee.

ALARM RINGS AGAIN ........

 
Still on knees,  I pray some more.  God,
please forgive my sins galore.
God, teach and empower me _ to
show and teach Your love, mercy:    Help me
          ....     praise and worship You.  IN THIS
    DAY,  I  serve and love YOU, my God.  BUT  I
    NEED  Your  help.  Without YOU,  I will  FAIL.
    Holy Spirit, please guide me.  Jesus,
    help me reflect Thee.

ALARM RINGS AGAIN ........

 
I set my clock so that I'll awake --- in
time to do many things this day.  I
set my MIND on things above -- Co-
lossians 3:  2,  I choose God's love.    I SHALL
          ....     praise and worship You.  IN THIS
    DAY,  I  serve and love YOU, my God.  BUT  I
    NEED  Your  help.  Without YOU,  I will  FAIL.
    Holy Spirit, please guide me.  Jesus,

Psalm 99 Exalting, by DianaDee Osborne

PSALM  99  EXALTING
ALBUM:      Amazing  Psalms 'n' Promises
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/NEW-Songs.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE)  


Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
            The lyrics “fell into place” easily, as God always leads them to do.... 
It is His skill,  His gifting.  I know.   I look in my journals at song drafts when I'm ready to seek another to record,  and I am always amazed at how few words are changed.  When they are, it is usually to fit into the music that I later design. 
            But if I write out the music at the same time as the lyrics,  seldom are there many changed words. 

            The music was amongst my hardest, because I can't “cheat” and use my home studio's program for quantizing notes in an odd timing like jazz or shuffles or this Latin beat.   The computer would make all the timing very boringly even.  So I literally had to edit note by note to get the timing right in all the odd timing measures.  

            And then this song probably took longer to learn than 98% of 'my' songs that God guides.... partly because I deliberately design easy-to-learn-and-worship melodies with some occasional notes thrown in for interest and fun challenge!

    But, in doing this for  God:  It was a fun gift to do for Him.... in the empowering of HIS gifting of this music and the skills.    Dedicated to our Lord,1 January 2013

LYRICS

THE LORD God reigns, let all people tremble!
    He dwells between the cherubim....
THE LORD God reigns, let the earth be moved! The
LORD GOD is great in Zion  --- His world.

God is high above all nations.  Let them praise Your Great Name.
God is holy and loves justice.  Establishes equity.
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!

2
Moses and Aaron were among God's priests.
    Like Samuel, they called on God's Name.
And THE LORD answered, spoke in a cloud and
gave them the Torah Laws.

God is just and took His vengeance when they did not respect Him.
But God  answered their repentance, and God DID forgive them!
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!

3
You LORD God reign, and I choose You King, and
    LORD of      ALL of   my life --- I LOVE  YOU!
You LORD Go reign, and I choose to trust You.
I seek to obey You, my LORD God.
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!
    Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.    Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!
Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him. Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!
         Exalt THE LORD, bow to Him.           
        Exalt THE LORD, worship Him!           

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
“The LORD reigns; Let the peoples tremble! He dwells between the cherubim; Let the earth be moved!  The LORD is great in Zion, And He is high above all the peoples. Let them praise Your great & awesome name--'He is holy'.
--Psalm 99: 1-3

Hiding From Fire, by DianaDee Osborne

HIDING FROM FIRE
ALBUM:      Amazing  LORD 'n' Life   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/NEW-Songs.php
CLICK HERE FOR AUDIO  download (FREE)  

Dedicated to our Calling Savior, Jesus Christ,  19 February 2013
Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   Time line for this song:
1.    I  awoke with the dream exactly as described in this song, even to the antique dresser.
2.    At  8:30,  I went to gym and wrote the lyrics (all of them) in 1/2 hour on the elliptical machine.
3.    At  11:15,  I went to the church to pray at the altar as usual -- which I share, not to brag but to demonstrate the amazing wonders God has done and always does for those who HUMBLE themselves to Him.... don't just ask Him to "bless what I myself am doing 'for' You."    God called Israel to be the LIGHT TO THE WORLD, SHOWING GOD'S GLORY.
Telling the world that our accomplishments are ONLY because God honored us with the power, is being part of that "SHOWING GOD'S GLORY."
        Scripture references links:    Isaiah 42: 6         Isaiah 49:6   (Jacob = Israel, nation)
(Because they failed to give and show God's glory, Jesus came as That Light.... that WE are to now be to guide people to see God's Truths.  
        Scripture reference links:      Luke 2:32          Acts 26:23

I asked God to give me great music for this song as yet more EVIDENCE that it is GOD gifting these songs... not me.    After awhile I got off my knees and walked to the piano... a few moments after I wrote in my journal, “God, I haven't the SLIGHTEST idea for music for this song.”

4.  I sat at the piano at 12:05 and finished the song music at 12:30....
             GUIDED BY GOD'S  HOLY SPIRIT CREATIVE INSPIRING.
5.  From 1:15 to 4:45 pm,  I recorded all the main musical instrument tracks in my home studio.... oboe, flute, clavichord, and of course piano.  I typed the music sheet.
6.  At 5:30 the professional studio J&T Productions recorded my vocals - singing and scriptures.  Then did mixing.  We finished in 90 minutes.  Yes, some “filler” tracks still need to be done,  and Claxton at Valley Worship and Praise Studio  does lively bass and drums for me when I use live drums and need skills past my not so bad slide bass skills.  But --
basically:
7.  At midnight as I posted the song to the World Wide Web, I can truthfully say that GOD answered my prayers,  

providing this -- HIS --  song to HIS world in 16 hours.  
  It's a song time-line history FAR beyond my natural skills.

LYRICS
1
Two people hid under it.  Smoke rolling in.  DANGER!  DANGER!  Yet
they believed,  quite sincerely,  Fire wouldn't come to bring them death.
2
I ran inside, saw them, yelled.  FIRE IS COMING!  DANGER!  COME OUT!  I'll
lead you to safety.  Please!  Come on!   You will surely die unless you come.

BRIDGE
I reached under that old dresser.  Hurt my shoulder, yet kept reaching on.
Grabbed their legs.  Smoke getting thick.  They kicked me.  STILL THEY HID.
Beat me, hit at me, and cursed at me.
Yelled,  “Mind your own business!”   Spit at me.
    Would not see Death coming.
        Called me names:   “Prejudiced.”

“You will die!”  I cried to them.  They spat, back, “Leave us the Hell alone....
It's our right to THINK what we want.  Go away,  we'll think what we want.”
4
“Fire is coming!”  I cried again.  They mocked me:  “Leave us the Hell alone....
It's our right to DO what we want.  You're prejudiced and just plain wrong.

CHORUS PRAYER
What to do?    Reality brings sure death when people won't believe.
Do we choose to walk away saying, “Hey we warned you.”  What do we say?
    God, we pray:   HELP YOUR CHURCH.....  

          God help ME to speak only Truth.
    Your Church chooses to speak of Your Way, 
          saying “God's word warns, with Love about hell.”“

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
When they had twisted a crown of thorns, they put it on His [Jesus's] head, and a reed in His right hand. And they bowed the knee before Him and mocked Him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"   Then they spat on Him, and took the reed and struck Him on the head.  And when they had mocked Him, they...led Him away to be CRUCIFIED.  --Matthew 27:29-31

“...Jesus, the author and finisher of [our] faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame....  
          "For consider Him   [Jesus]            
who endured such hostility from sinners 
                 against Himself,                          
lest you become weary & discouraged in your souls."
 -- Hebrews 12: 2a, 3.  Verse 4:
“You have not yet resisted to bloodshed, striving against sin.”      Scripture LINK

Salvation Word Chant, by DianaDee Osborne

SALVATION  WORD  CHANT

Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
            After prayer time at the altar,  I just went over to the sanctuary piano and started playing this full song -- all the same music, all the same chords.  Again -- this is God's music guidance,  His Holy Spirit's creative guidance.  I am honored to develop His music with the prayers that He will use them as He wants -- or not at all if He wants -- in a way that gives HIM pleasure.      I don't even remember how I came up with words.
             However, these ARE the scriptures that I REPEATEDLY use in songs AND in discussions with people.  One of the scripture references.... not the famous John 3:16.... is even designed into a method for my license plates, so that I can tell complete strangers  what the plates mean.  Oh yeah.... the music plus the lyrics were completed in 10 minutes. 

             Thanking and praising God for His song gifting.  Not sure if I've mentioned this in a song story:  I always “believed in God” (as even demons do -- James 2:19).  When I accepted Jesus as Savior, I didn't know how to pray, how to find “right” scriptures.  So I “just flipped” in my Bible.... and the first verse I saw was Zephaniah 3:17.  Being immature in the faith,  the next night I did the same.  And the first verse I saw was Zephaniah 3:17.  STATISTICALLY -- what are the chances of finding an identical verse twice accidentally? Much less one in a tiny book in the Old Testament?   I'm convinced it was God's guidance.
            But I'm rather slow.  It wasn't until last year that I had the AH-HA moment and realized the verse was a  prophecy  for my ministry  from and for Him:  “The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will  SAVE;   
   He will rejoice over you with gladness,                        
   He will quiet you with His love, 
   He will rejoice over you with singing."
 
Dedicated to our Lord,

Out of the Ashes (Isaiah 61), by DianaDee Osborne

OUT  OF  THE  ASHES  (Isaiah 61)
ALBUM:      Amazing  LORD 'n' Life   
Song location  http://DianaDeeOsborneSongs.com/NEW-Songs.php

Song Story:  THE  MUSIC:   
        From Smith Wigglesworth “On the Anointing”, page 88:  “We are to be more helpless, more dependent on God. These are the ashes of the sacrifice...” I found this sentence early Christmas morning, just as I was completing this song draft. I caught my breath in awe of God.  Verse 2 was  written@ altar.
Dedicated to Protector LORD God, 6 December 2012

LYRICS
READING 1  DURING INTRO:
As Jesus went into the synagogue at the beginning of His ministry, He read the PROPHECY OF HIMSELF:  From Isaiah 61, verse 1  

        “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, 
Because the LORD has anointed Me 
To preach good tidings to the poor; 
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, 
To proclaim liberty to the captives, 
And the opening of the prison to  those who are bound..." 

1
Out of the ashes come forth warm flame
when I reach in and stir black ASH again.
    Hot embers no one saw spring to life again.
    Dirty ash  I thought worthless  warms the room again.
Stove ash stirred to life by my touch. Ash turned to blessings prove:
Romans 8: 28,  God's promise is TRUTH.
Isaiah 61:           Messiah for YOU.
Jesus through God's Luke 4   offers life to YOU.


READING 2:  JESUS continued to read the prophecy of HIMSELF. This is told in Luke 4  starting with verse 17.   Jesus began with “The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon Me, --and Jesus continued -- Isaiah 61 verse 3--  “...To console those who mourn in Zion,   To give them BEAUTY  for  ASHES, The oil of joy for mourning,  The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called trees of righteousness,  The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified."  -- Jesus, described in Isaiah 61
 

2
Out of LIFE's  ashes can spring forth heat.
Though I feel cold and lifeless, God stirs me!  
    Joy that I thought was gone, God brings to Life again!
    Sorrow ashes seemed so cold. God turns to blessings.
My life's ash stirred to life by God's touch. Ash stirred to blessings prove:
Romans 8: 28,  God's promise is TRUTH.    [2 Timothy 3:16]
Isaiah 61:         Messiah for YOU.
Jesus through God's Luke 4   offers life to YOU.
[John 10: 10]
