Eddy Mann ~ Hope Love Joy Peace
This album, inspired through the 2013 season of Advent, was written as I was adjusting to my mother’s recent residential change to heaven. It marked a season of transition, a moment of growth, and the realization of a deeper faith. It speaks to a spirit that began to understand a clearer vision of life, of death, and of eternity. It birthed a renewed period of hope, love, joy and peace that still pervades today.
E.M.
LORD OF PEACE …inspired by Isaiah 9:6
© 2013 Eddy Mann
Lord of Peace love away my sorrow
Sooth this pain with a blest tomorrow
See the manger
Peace it came here
Lord of Peace love away my blindness
Melt this ice thaw this heart of kindness
See the manger
Peace it came here
At all times, in all ways
You make it possible to live in peace with you
Lord of peace, Lord of peace
Love away my sorrow with a blest tomorrow
Lord of peace, Lord of peace
Love away my blindness; thaw this heart of kindness
WONDERFUL COUNSELOR …inspired by Isaiah 9:6
© 2013 Eddy Mann
Wonderful Counselor, born to us
Born to love, and want good for us
You want good for us, Lord Jesus
Wonderful Counselor, given to us
Given to guide, and provide for us
You provide for us, Lord Jesus
Your presence surrounds me
Your glory for all to see
Wonderful Counselor, sent to us
Sent to heal, and to comfort us
You comfort us, Lord Jesus
GOOD NEWS OF GREAT JOY …inspired by Luke 2:11
© 2013 Eddy Mann
He is king
Ruling His people
In His realm, he is in their hearts
He is divine
Bridging the chasm
He's the sacrifice given in love
Good news of great joy
He is Christ, the anointed One
Good news of great joy
He is Christ; he is God's own Son
He is prophet
Bringing the Word
He's alive in the midst of our lives
He is Anointed One
He is God's Son
He was sent to fulfill God's Word
IN THE SHADOW OF JERUSALEM …inspired by Luke 2:4
© 2013 Eddy Mann
Shed a little light in this place
Shed a little light on this face
Pour a little love on this soul
Turn a little tin heart to gold
In the shadow of Jerusalem
Cast me the ordinary
Shape me to fill the par
Use me to tell your story
Mold me a loving heart
Waiting for the moment to arise
Joy, hope, and peace, in my eyes
Love not withstanding, love divine
Washing over all of mankind
JESUS (THE LORD SAVES) …inspired by Luke 2:7
© 2013 Eddy Mann
The angel did appear
He spoke the world to hear
The name for which to give His Son
He’ll save us from our sin
The Savior born to
He’ll separate us from ourselves
Jesus, the Lord saves, the splendor of God
Holy! Powerful! The Son of God
Our saving grace was born
Upon that blessed morn
The answer to the world’s prayers
So as we contemplate
O we can celebrate
The saving started at His birth
The angel made it clear
For all the world to hear
The Savior born to us this night
THE GOOD BEGINNING …inspired by 1 John 1:1-2
© 2013 Eddy Mann
You're the only one who can
Begin something new in my life
You're the one
You're the life
You're the only one who can
Turn around the trouble I face
You're the life
You're the grace
Real wisdom
Real virtue
You're the good beginning
And the rescue of us now
Lord, help us regain, everything
That we were supposed to be
Restore Your image, in us
So that we can be love for all to see
MY SOUL MAGNIFIES THE LORD …inspired by Luke 2:46-47
© 2013 Eddy Mann
My soul magnifies. My soul magnifies
My soul magnifies the Lord
My spirit rejoices. My spirit rejoices
My spirit rejoices in God
You are my Savior. You are my Savior
You are my Savior for all to see
Lord, help me see clearer. Lord, help me see clearer
Lord, help me see clearer who I should be
Lord, help me get nearer. Lord, help me get nearer
Lord, help me get nearer to Thee
YOUR KINGDOM WILL NEVER END …inspired by Luke 1:32-33
© 2013 Eddy Mann
You have a storied beginning
A child with a humbled birth
Born in a lowly stable
Love come down to earth
But the end, is an explosion of glory
Divine enough for the whole world to see
The end is a kingdom
That has compassion for foe and friend
Blessings and honor and glory forever
Your kingdom will never end
THIS EVE …inspired by Luke 2:6
© 2013 Eddy Mann
There's quiet
Then there's quiet
Quietly night fell on this eve
There's silent
Then there's silent
Silently love came on this eve
Holy
O so Holy
Holiness engulfed this eve
There's peaceful
Then there's peaceful
Peacefulness surrounded this eve
Alleluia
Alleluia
Alleluia bless this eve
Peace from heaven
Bless this eve
YOU ARE HERE …inspired by Matthew 1:22-23
© 2013 Eddy Mann
You are here with us
You are here with us
Everywhere with us, Immanuel
Right here before my eyes
Every blessing prophesied
Love came down a sacrifice for me
Holy! Holy! God with us
In the name of Jesus
Heaven sent, miraculous, for all to see
Help us this season
To remember the reason
And to live in your presence more
Help us Lord Jesus
To live what you teach us
And to gratefully build and restore
