SUNDAY NIGHT MEETING

SUNDAY NIGHT MEETING. I REMEMBER WHEN I WAS, I WAS A LITTLE GIRL GROWING UP IN KISSIMMEE, FLORIDA WE MET TOGETHER IN OUR PENTECOSTAL CHURCH ON SUNDAY NIGHTS. WE DIDN’T GET TOGETHER OUT OF ROUTINE. WE MET OUT OF A DESIRE FOR GOD. WE KNEW THAT HIS PRESENCE WOULD BE THERE. WE EXPECTED TO WALK IN ONE WAY AND LEAVE ANOTHER. MY SISTER BRENDA WOULD PLAY THE PIANO, AND MY MOTHER PLAYED THE ACCORDION. THE REST OF US KIDS WOULD SING. BUT AS A CONGREGATION, WE WOULD SING UNTIL THE POWER OF GOD FILLED OUR HEARTS. I CAN STILL FEEL THE EXCITEMENT OF THOSE NIGHTS, AS WE’D OPEN UP OUR SERVICE AND SING SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

*THE WINDOWS OF HEAVEN ARE OPEN, GOD’S BLESSINGS ARE FALLING TONIGHT, AND THERE IS JOY, JOY, JOY IN MY HEART, SINCE JESUS MADE EVERYTHING RIGHT. I GAVE HIM MY OLD TATTERED GARMENT AND THEN HE GAVE ME A ROBE OF PURE WHITE, I’M FEASTING ON THE MANNA FROM HEAVEN AND THAT’S WHY I’M HAPPY TONIGHT.
WE KNEW THAT WE WERE A NEEDY PEOPLE, BUT WE KNEW WE SERVED A GOD WHO HAD PROMISED TO MEET ALL OF OUR NEEDS. IF THERE WAS ANYBODY IN THE BUILDING WHO NEEDED HOPE, DELIVERANCE, OR ANYTHING WE’D SING SOMETHING LIKE THIS:
*IF YOU NEED A BLESSING, THEN TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, IF YOU NEED A BLESSING TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, WELL IF YOU NEED A BLESSING, TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, JESUS ON THE MAINLINE NOW.
JESUS ON THE MAINLINE, TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, I KNOW JESUS ON THE MAINLINE TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, I SAID JESUS ON THE MAINLINE, TELL HIM WHAT YOU WANT, JESUS ON THE MAINLINE NOW.
*WELL SOMETIMES WE’D GATHER AROUND THE ALTERS AND BEGIN TO PRAY FOR THE SICK. WE BELIEVED THAT JESUS HAD ALREADY PAID THE PRICE FOR THE HEALING OF OUR BODIES. WE BELIEVED THAT THE BLOOD THAT FLOWED BACK THEN IS THE SAME BLOOD THAT HEALS US TODAY.
CAUSE THERE IS POWER, POWER, WONDER WORKING POWER, IN THE BLOOD, OF THE LAMB. THERE IS POWER, POWER, WONDER WORKING POWER, IN THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE LAMB. OH, PRECIOUS IS THE FLOW, THAT MAKES ME WHITE AS SNOW, NO OTHER FOUNT I KNOW, NOTHING BUT THE BLOOD OF JESUS.
AND I THANK GOD FOR THE BLOOD, THANK GOD, FOR HIS HEALING BLOOD, THANK GOD FOR THE BLOOD THAT WASHES WHITE AS SNOW.
*IT WAS TIME FOR A GOOD TESTIMONY SERVICE, ONE BY ONE WE’D STAND UP AND TELL WHAT GOOD THINGS GOD HAD DONE. MY AUNT STELLA WOULD SAY IT LIKE THIS
HE’S DONE SO MUCH FOR ME, I CANNOT TELL IT ALL, CANNOT TELL IT ALL, CAN NOT TELL IT ALL, HE HAS DONE SO MUCH FOR ME, THAT I CANNOT TELL IT ALL. HE HAS TAKEN MY SINS AWAY.
JESUS I’LL NEVER FORGET WHAT YOU’VE DONE FOR ME, JESUS I’LL NEVER FORGET HOW YOU SET ME FREE, AND JESUS I’LL NEVER FORGET HOW YOU BROUGHT ME OUT, OH, I’LL NEVER FORGET, NO NEVER.
*MY DADDY WOULD HIT THAT PULPIT PREACHING. HE WASN’T A MAN WHO USED A LOT OF ELOQUENT WORDS BUT HE’D BEEN ON HIS KNEES WITH GOD. HE WOULD PREACH *UNTIL THE ALTERS WOULD FILL FROM ONE SIDE TO THE OTHER. YOU COULD LOOK INTO THE ALTER AND SEE A MAN WHO HAD GONE FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT, FROM SINNER TO SAINT, WHO’S HEART WAS CHANGED AND HE’D BEGIN TO SAY…..
I’M SAVED AND I KNOW THAT I AM, I’M SAVED AND I KNOW THAT I AM, WELL I AM SAVED, AND I KNOW THAT I AM, I’M SO GLAD I KNOW THAT I AM.
I’M SATISFIED AND I KNOW THAT I AM, I’M SATISFIED AND I KNOW THAT I AM, I’M SATISFIED AND I KNOW THAT I IM, WELL I’M SO GLAD I KNOW THAT I AM.
CAUSE I’M REDEEMED BY LOVE DIVINE, GLORY, GLORY CHRIST IS MINE AND ALL TO HIM I NOW RESIGN, FOR I HAVE BEEN, I HAVE BEEN REDEEMED.
WELL I REDEEMED BE LOVE DIVINE, GLORY, GLORY CHRIST IS MINE AND ALL TO HIM I NOW RESIGN, CAUSE I HAVE BEEN, I HAVE BEEN REDEEMED.
*WELL IT DIDN’T TAKE MUCH TO TURN OUR HEARTS TOWARD HOME. WE KNEW THAT THE REJOICING WE WERE DOING DOWN HERE, *WE’D SOON BE DOING ON STREETS OF GOLD. AS THE HOPE OF HEAVEN WAS RESOUNDING IN THE ROOM, WE’D BEGIN TO SING ABOUT IT AND SHOUT ABOUT IT.
WON’T WE HAVE A TIME WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER, WON’T WE HAVE A TIME, WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER, AND WON’T WE HAVE A TIME, WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER. OH, WON’T WE HAVE A TIME.
WE’RE GONNA WALK AND TALK AND SING AND SHOUT, WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER, WALK AND TALK AND SING AND SHOUT WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER, WALK AND TALK AND SING AND SHOUT, WHEN WE GET OVER YONDER OH, WON’T WE HAVE A TIME?
*MY GRANDMA WOULD SING
EVERYBODY WILL BE HAPPY, WILL BE HAPPY OVER THERE. WE WILL SHOUT AND SING GOD’S PRAISES, EVERYBODY WILL BE HAPPY OVER THERE, OVER THERE, WE WILL SHOUT AND SING GOD’S PRAISES EVERYBODY WILL BE HAPPY OVER THERE!
