I'm here to here to come and here to have - tonight
Oh, you're in the right place
I hope you can hear when I praise on your mind
Oh yeah

When there's a praise in the temple and a praise in the house
You can usher in the spirit and remove the devil out
God will open up a window and a blessing he'll pour out
When there's a praise in the temple
And a praise in the house

When there's a praise in the temple and a praise in the house
You can usher in the spirit and remove the devil out (yes sir)
God will open up a window and a blessing he'll pour out
When there's a praise in the temple
And a praise in the house

When there's a praise in the temple and a praise in the house
You can usher in the spirit and remove the devil out
God will open up a window and a blessing he'll pour out
When there's a praise in the temple
And a praise in the house

It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time
Enter into the gates with thanksgiving and a praise on your mind
It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time
Get up outta that seat
Stand up on your feet
Let's clap to the beat, it's service time

It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time




Enter into the gates with thanksgiving and a praise on your mind
It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time (Listen)
Get up outta that seat
Stand up on your feet
Let's clap to the beat, it's service time

You won't leave like you came in Jesus name
There's a blessing in this house that you can claim
All you have to do is speak it, it's in your name
You won't leave like you came in Jesus name

You won't leave like you came in Jesus name
There's a blessing waiting on you, you can claim
It's predestined and ordained, it's in your name
You wont' leave like you came in Jesus name

It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time
Enter into the gates with thanksgiving and a praise on your mind
It's service time, it's service time
It's service time, it's service time
Get up outta that seat (Come on)
Stand up on your feet
Let's clap to the beat, it's service time

Yeah, when there's a praise in the temple and a praise in the house
You can usher in the spirit and remove the devil out
God will open up a window and a blessing he'll pour out
When there's a praise in the temple

There's a praise in the temple (Can you feel the praise?)
Praise in the temple (When there's a praise)
Praise in the temple (The blessing will come back)
Praise in the temple (There's a praise in here right now)
Praise in the temple (Yeah)
Praise in the temple
When there's a praise in the temple and a praise in the house

Hallelujah!
Yeah

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain
Free to all, a healing stream
Flows from Calvary's mountain.
In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.

Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and mercy found me;
There the bright and morning star
Sheds its beams around me.

In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.

Julie Hanson ........ Dear Friends of God......................Please research God's Time/Calendar in Genesis 1:14 before the False Sabbath law is enforced! Actions are in progress to honor a Sabbath day. Already today, there are Sunday laws written on government books.

Saturday nor Sunday is NOT the true biblical Sabbath. Genesis 1:14 is a commandment from God. God commanded us to let the lights in heaven be for days, years, etc. We are to use the sun, moon and stars to calculate our days, years, signs, seasons, Sabbaths, etc.

The Sabbath commandment is one of the Ten commandments listed in Exodus 20 and It is just as important as the other nine commandments. It is to be kept!

The Sabbath is calculated by God's Time in the heavens not by the Gregorian Calendar or any other man-made time. The Sabbath is a sign between God and His people Israel and whosoever join themselves to them. One law is to Israel and to the stranger. Exodus 12:48,49

Note: Sunday is the seventh day in the majority of countries.

Also, research the "seven Noahide Laws" From my research online, these laws are Jewish laws taken from their writings, namely the Talmud. The first law in the "seven Noahide laws" forbids the worship of idols. According to Jewish writings, the worship of Jesus, Yahushua, etc........is idolatry and is punishable by death, decapitation. There is a movement to enforce these laws on all nations. Research the connection between President Bush, President Trump, The United Nations, etc and the " seven Noahide laws"

BEWARE OF THESE "SEVEN NOAHIDE LAWS". THESE LAWS ARE VERY DANGEROUS TO CHRISTIANS AND TO ALL MANKIND!!

Lastly, there is much talk online that the Jewish people residing in the land of Israel today are not the true Israelites and that the true Israelites are today now scattered throughout the nations, is this true? The Bible says in Revelation 3:9, someone is saying they are Jews but are not but are the synagogue of Satan. Research, Who are true Israel?

HAVE A GOOD DAY FRIENDS OF GOD..........GLORY TO THE FATHER AND SON!

1. Jesus, keep me near the cross; 
there a precious fountain, 
free to all, a healing stream, 
flows from Calvary's mountain. 
Refrain: 
In the cross, in the cross, 
be my glory ever, 
till my raptured soul shall find 
rest beyond the river.

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain—
Free to all, a healing stream—
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.

Refrain:
Near the cross, near the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.


Near the cross I’ll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.

Jesus, keep me near the cross,
There a precious fountain—
Free to all, a healing stream—
Flows from Calv’ry’s mountain.
Refrain:
In the cross, in the cross,
Be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.
Near the cross, a trembling soul,
Love and Mercy found me;
There the bright and morning star
Sheds its beams around me.
Near the cross! O Lamb of God,
Bring its scenes before me;
Help me walk from day to day,
With its shadows o’er me.
Near the cross I’ll watch and wait
Hoping, trusting ever,
Till I reach the golden strand,
Just beyond the river.

Yes!!! I couldn't agree More. This song Saved my sanity when I was 17 years old with a newborn alone. I sang this song while rocking my son & sobbing all the while. GOD Can & Will comfort our Soul when we feel hopeless and alone. "I will never Leave nor Forsake You" GOD promised. We Can count on HIM. Selah/Be Blessed

@RIDGEMATIC

For real

@ceceliasummers6103

Thank you Heavenly Father for this technology that allows me to hear these old traditional hymns of the church. I’m tired of going to churches today and rarely do you hear any hymns pertaining to Jesus, His blood, or the cross. As this World becomes more and more evil and wicked , this is my sincere heart felt prayer that Jesus keeps me near the cross
