<\/a>iece of music that I\u2019ve heard a couple of times in the past two weeks that is so enjoyable. The music is toe-tapping good. The lyrics are simple and yet hold great meaning.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I have found it quite difficult to find this song, the lyrics and even the person who wrote this wonderful piece. But after much searching, I\u2019ve finally found the right lyrics, the right person who wrote it and a version you can listen to.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He\u2019s So Good to Me<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Oh sweet Jesus, my Lord and Savior.<\/p>\n
He gives sight to eyes of blindness;<\/p>\n
Caused me to see.<\/p>\n
How I love Him.<\/p>\n
I adore Him.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s no other Friend I\u2019ve found;<\/p>\n
Who gives grace where sin abounds<\/p>\n
And I\u2019m rejoicing;<\/p>\n
He\u2019s so good to me.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I am on my way to heaven;<\/p>\n
For my sins have been forgiven.<\/p>\n
And it\u2019s all because my Jesus loves me;<\/p>\n
And He\u2019s so good to me.[i]<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Now you\u2019ll love this version of this song if you lived through the 1970\u2019s. I knew several guys with suits just like this group! So now that I\u2019ve built it up, you\u2019ll not want to miss this one. However, if you\u2019re like me, you\u2019ll have this tune stuck in your head (and your heart) for a while. So click here <\/a>if you want an uplifting experience.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As a side note, the Calvarymen Quartet was the group singing the version I heard on the radio. If you get a chance to hear their version, you\u2019ll really be blessed.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There are a few reasons to rejoice as listed in this song. Let\u2019s take a look at them.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cDo not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God. You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the house of Jacob forever; his king will never end.\u201d<\/em> (Luke 1:30-33 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lord and Savior<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cTherefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall, and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.\u201d <\/em>(2 Peter 1:10-11 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Restoration of Sight<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cFor you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light.\u201d <\/em>(Ephesians 5:8 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Friendship<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cYou are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master\u2019s business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made know to you.\u201d <\/em>(John 15:14-15 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cBut he gives us more grace.\u201d<\/em> (James 4:6a \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Heaven<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cIn my Father\u2019s house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.\u201d <\/em>(John 14:2-3 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Forgiveness of Sin<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cIn him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God\u2019s grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding.\u201d<\/em> (Ephesians 1:7-8 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jesus Loves Me<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cFor God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.\u201d <\/em>(John 3:16 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Goodness<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cBut the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.\u201d <\/em>(Galatians 5:22-23 \u2013 NIV)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If these were the only reasons we have to rejoice, we would have quite a list! However there are plenty more found in Scripture. But this is a great start. If you are searching for a reason to rejoice today, rejoice for these blessings we\u2019ve received from God our Father, His sweet Son, and the Holy Spirit.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Because of the goodness we have received, we too can say, I love Jesus. I adore Jesus. He deserves nothing less. The Apostle John knew of Jesus\u2019 goodness first hand. He mentions in 1 John 4:19 (NIV) that because He loved us, we love. \u201cWe love because he first loved us.\u201d<\/em> We are called to love others and are able to do so because of the love God gave us.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n For sure, God has been so good to me. I pray that you know His goodness and that you can say the same. If not, maybe today is the day to accept His goodness and His gift of salvation. Then you can tell others of how good God has been to you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I now have a brighter outlook on Monday\u2019s. Sharing my love of music brings joy to my heart and a smile to my face. If you have a favorite song that you\u2019d like me to share, please let me know. I\u2019d be happy to do so.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Have a blessed Monday and let\u2019s rejoice today for all the goodness we\u2019ve received!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Donna<\/p>\n <\/p>\n To leave a comment, please click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
