These are Lyric Videos of Lund McVey Group songs:
The Light of the Son
Full Vent
Proverbs 29:11 “Fools give full vent to their rage, but the wise bring calm in the end.”
Mind Flight
Romans 12:2 “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--His good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Prayer From the Heart
Matthew 6:6, 20a, 21 “When you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.”
When You’re Near
Hebrews 10:22a “Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings”
In Spirit He Is Speaking Secrets
1 Corinthians 4:2 “For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries
by the Spirit.”
The Light of the Son
Colossians 1:15-16 “The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For by Him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by Him and for Him.”
My Cup Runs Over
Joel 2:24 “The threshing floors will be filled with grain; the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.”
Song For Shonna
Psalm 144:9 “I will sing a new song to you, my God; on the ten-stringed lyre I will make music to you”
Freedom
2 Corinthians 3:17 “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
My God Gives Me Peace
Phillipians 4:7 “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
The Lund McVey Group
1. Brand New Cat
There are turning points in all our lives, times when we are forced to reinvent ourselves. Allowing God into our hearts gives us belief and faith that we can change and grow.
2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!”
2. In Control
We are constantly trying to have “control” over our lives – our careers, finances, health, and relationships – but there are always things that can and will happen that we don’t plan for. The only true control is that of God.
Matthew 6:33-34 “‘But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.’”
3. In My Grief
Pain and grief are an unavoidable part of life on Earth. These feelings are the result of trials, which are given to us by God for a purpose.
James 1:2-4 “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”
4. Live By Faith
Our lives are filled with Faith in many things, especially that we, and those close to us, will live to see another day. It is Faith that allows us to have peace.
Hebrews 11:1 "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."
5. Reconciled
God does love the world. His perfect plan includes the consummate solution of every problem this existence has to offer. Everything will work together in Heaven.
Colossians 1:19-20 “For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in Christ, and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood shed on the cross.”
Romans 5:10 “For if, when we were God's enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!”
6. Good and Evil
The divine creator made all things and all creation follows His divine plan.
Good and evil, joy and tragedy are part of the balance of life.
Genesis 3:5 “For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened,
and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
7. All Who Call
In the struggle to go on living, we search for meaning and direction, often looking beyond ourselves for answers. I believe exploring the spiritual realm can provide us with wisdom and peace.
Matthew 7:8 “‘For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.’”
Romans 10:12-13 "For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, 'Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'"
8. Let’s Get Serious
There are things in our lives that have serious consequences, and can affect our emotions, choices, and self-image. God wants to lead you to face painful issues and guide you to find release and healing through mercy and forgiveness!
Acts 26:17b-18 “‘I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’”
9. My Daddy From Up Above
Whether or not we know it, we all have an eternal father in God, a father who loves us and has created us to be part of his good, pleasing, and perfect will. Think of the love you have for someone or something; that is only a fraction of God’s infinite love for all of His creation.
Matthew 7:11 “‘If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!’”
10. Look Up
I believe in the beauty and value of life and the plan of God – love, peace, brotherhood and sisterhood are true blessings; let us rejoice in what God has given us!
Philippians 4:6-7 “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”
Live at the Walnut House
Spatial Anomaly
Science Fiction entertainment (such as Star Trek) can lead our thoughts to things beyond our immediate perceptions.
“Sir, I am reading a Spatial Anomaly in the Devron system!”
Telepathic Message
I believe in the Supernatural, including the ability to receive thoughts and emotions without the benefit of verbal communication.
These Days
It is important to remember that Today is our opportunity for all things - expression, action, and change.
Before I Knew You
A song about the existence of a Higher Power, which I believe exists and affects us, whether or not we are aware of it.
“Before I knew you, you were working in my life.”
Two Worlds
I believe there is another world hidden behind what we see in front of us. Only our Spirit can sense beyond our perceptions. I will live for the unseen world.
Greater Things
When we embrace that which is beyond ourselves, we can become empowered to do things we never thought we could.
Faithful Servant
It is my goal to be a servant in any way possible, to my family, my friends, and my God.
Thanks To You
I wish to humbly thank all who are a part of my life, including those people closest and farthest from me, and including He who created me and this universe of wonders.
Jesus Is My Hero
Heroes inspire us, motivate us, and help us grow. Heroes can be far off celebrities or close up friends, but all are people with limitations. I have found a Hero who is always there for me.
Nice Work If You Can Get It
A song about our common search for love, and how very nice love is, so let us value it and keep it fresh in our hearts always.
