Chuck SpanglerGrace Memorial Parishioner Listen, I will tell you a mystery! We will not all die, but we will all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. Therefore, my beloved, be steadfast, immovable, always excelling in the work of the Lord, because you know that in the Lord your labour is not in vain.

"Different" Album: Different Artist: Micah Tyler "Different" Lyrics: I don’t want to hear anymore, teach me to listen. I don’t want to see anymore, give me a vision. That You could move this heart to be set apart. I don’t need to recognize the man in the mirror. And I don’t want to trade Your plan for something familiar. I can’t waste a day…I can’t stay the same… I want to be different, I want to be changed, til all of me is gone and all that remains… Is a fire so bright the whole world can see that there’s something different, So come and be different…in me. And I don’t want to spend my life stuck in a pattern, And I don’t to want to gain this world but loose what matters. So I’m giving up everything because… I want to be different, I want to be changed, til all of me is gone and all that remains… Is a fire so bright the whole world can see that there’s something different, So come and be different… Oh I know that I am far from perfect. But through You the cross still says I’m worth it. Take this beating in my heart, come and finish what You’ve started: When they see me, let them see You, cause I just want to be different I want to be different, I want to be changed. Till all of me’s gone, and all that remains, oh, is a fire so bright the whole world can see. That there’s something different, so come and be different… I just want to be different…could You be different…in me. "Never Been a Moment" Album: Different Artist: Micah Tyler "Never Been a Moment" Lyrics: I've been a sinner, I've been a saint…A little bit of both every single day I've been lost, but somehow I've been found. There's been some pain, been some regret…Been some moments I'll never forget But when I look back from where I'm standing now. There's never been a moment I was not held inside Your arms…And there's never been a day when You were not who You say You are. You're forever, it don't matter what I'm walking through…; Cause no matter where I'm going There's never been a moment…That I was not loved by You Loved by You…Loved by You. You've been the Rock, You've been the peace…Always showing Your good heart to me. My days are marked by grace I don't deserve, no. You've been the price I could never pay…You've been the light that has led the way, No matter where I am…Oh, I am sure There's never been a moment…I was not held inside Your arms… And there's never been a day when You were not who You say You are. You're forever, it don't matter what I'm walking through: Cause no matter where I'm going…There's never been a moment That I was not loved by You, Loved by You, Loved by You. So where could I go That I could wander from Your side, And where could I run And never leave behind. You're all-consuming, heart-pursuing, grace-extending, never-ending love…Your love. And there's never been a moment, no. There's never been a moment I was not held inside Your arms. And there's never been a day when You were not who You say You are. You're forever, it don't matter what I'm walking through; Cause no matter where I'm going There's never been a moment That I was not loved Oh, no matter where I'm going There's never been a moment That I was not loved by You Loved by You (yeah), Loved by You (loved by You), Loved by You Loved by You, Loved by You, Loved by You.
