EVERY TIME I HEAR HIS NAME

I was blessed beyond belief on last Friday night, December 13.  I was staying with a husband and wife pastors.  I was hitting the road on Saturday morning for home, but they were about 80 miles from when I left Susan's that afternoon.  I wouldn't have as much travel difficulty in the cold, snowy, freezing phase of life.

When I arrived on Friday afternoon, I immediately met their guests from Canada.  Spiritually intense, visionary, strength-of-the-Lord people.

I love Craig and Sonja's church!

Before I arrived, I knew I needed some special prayer time, for health and for a battle to the enemy.  Amazingly, they did it, all in agreement when they didn't discuss any of this about me.  But Craig and Sonja have known me for a few years when I'm up to Minnesota and going back and forth.  Been dealing with historical and otherwise spiritual issues together.


Anyhow, Friday night, I was told specifically by all of these people that I have been dealing with orphan spirit issues [which I'd never thought of; now reading it] and that God loves me especially as His daughter.  I was filled with joyfulness as I was leaving for home.  Filled my heart all day. Still is.

Today, when trying to share a poem or song I've written in the past, this one jumped in.  I wrote it about 32 years ago, when at a church here, and I felt strongly that it was good then.  NOW??  It's truly perfect.  My heart wanted it to mean this long ago, and felt it did.  Now it truly does!!!

Would love to have the song sung again.  Sure will be in my mind, heart, soul, and spirit now... for a LONG time!

====================================

Chorus:

            Every time I hear His name I’ll love Him more.
            Every time I hear His name, I’ll worship and adore Him.
            For He gave sweet life to me,
            And through all eternity
            Every time I hear His name, I’ll love Him more.

Verse 1:

           Oh, He is my dearest Friend,
           He came to me.
           He saved my soul from sin,
           He set me free.
           He hears me when I pray,
           He guides my steps each day,
           So, every time I hear His name, I’ll love Him more.

 Verse 2:

          Oh, He’ll be your dearest Friend,
          He’ll come to you.
          He will save you from your sin,
          He’ll see you through.
          He’ll listen when you pray,
          His promise says, He’ll make a way.
         And every time you hear His name,  you’ll love Him more.
