Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”

When the enemy tries to destroy
All the joy that lives inside…
When he tells you that you’re not worth
The love that God pours over your heart…
When he reaches beyond your dreams
To tell you that you are doomed to grieve….

Remember, the angels of heaven see.
God, who is with you, restores
Offering you hope that can’t be ignored,
Faith that helps you to know…
Whatever comes, even the worst imaginable,
Can be overcome when you look to Him,
The One who changes the world….

One heart at a time – one soul, one spirit, one life
Changed by the love that abides
Inside those who see Jesus as the light,
Know Jesus can make the wrongs right,
Recognize the love that He pours out in each life.

One heart at a time – He promises to convert,
Leave the hopeless with a hope that is eternal,
Leave the darkness with a light that is supernal,
Leave the fearful with a courage that inspires,
Leave the heartless with a love that is full of wonder,

A love that abides inside those who know Him,
The One who saves the souls who believe,
Not just that He lived, but that He died and rose again
And that He changes hearts so they can be…
Forgiven and saved by the love that abides throughout eternity,
The love that describes Jesus as the Prince of Peace.
