Giving In To Jesus: 5 Christian Country Songs

Best of country music that glorifies God Almighty.

1. Mercy Built A Bridge

Artist: The Hinsons

Lyrics:

In a lowly cattle stable in Bethlehem,

There were signs of new construction on a mighty span

That in the hearts of all the lost

Would cast a shadow of the cross

Cause that Babe of Mary's crib

Would soon be mercy's bridge

Home was just across the river on Heaven's side

But we were much too tired to swim with no boat to ride

God made a way that wouldn't fail

A wooden cross and three rusty nails

On Calvary's rugged ridge, Mercy built a bridge

Now we can cross but we must cross the Calvary way

That leads from night unto the brightest day

Where Jesus died so you and I could live

Leave all your guilt Mercy built a bridge

Jesus is a bridge

2. Rise Again

Artist: Dallas Holm

Lyrics:

Go ahead, drive the nails in My hands

Laugh at me, where you stand

Go ahead, and say it isn't Me

The day will come, when you will see

'Cause I'll rise again

Ain't no power on earth can keep Me down

Yes I'll rise again

Death can't keep Me in the ground

Go ahead mock My name

My love for you is still the same

Go ahead and bury Me

But very soon I will be free

'Cause I'll rise again

Ain't no power on earth can keep Me down

Yes I'll rise again

Death can't keep Me in the ground

Go ahead, and say I'm dead and gone

But you will see that you were wrong

Go ahead try to hide the Son

But all will see that I'm the One

'Cause I'll come again

Ain't no power on earth can keep me back

Yes I'll come again

Come to take My people back

3. On My Knees

Artist: Bob Carlisle

Lyrics:

Stand with all my might and still I seem to fall

I try to walk before I even crawl

Oh it seems I'm like a child in me again a helpless heart

A broken man

Strength is something that’s so very hard to find

But still I know the Truth

It must be blind so I sacrifice my heart to God in prayer

Lay my weakness down and I’ll find you there

I can stand tall

On my knees I can see forever

On my knees I can face it all

I feel like I can climb a mountain cause on my knees

The world’s a Little smaller

And I stand taller on my knees

See a man in a garden

Long ago He went along as the weight of sins unseen

And lies unknown came to rest upon His weary shoulders

He knew my name He took my pain

So I can stand tall

On my knees I can see forever

On my knees I can face it all

I feel like I can climb a mountain

Cause on my knees the worlds a little smaller

And I stand taller on my knees.

There's a piece that shadows anything I know

I lay down every burden and I'm free

I can stand tall on my knees

I can see forever on my knees

I can face it all

I feel like I can climb a mountain cause on my knees

The worlds a little smaller on my knees

4. I Can Only Imagine

Artist: Emerson Drive

Lyrics:

I can only imagine what it will be like

When I walk by your side

I can only imagine what my eyes will see

When Your face is before me

I can only imagine

I can only imagine what it will be like

When I walk by your side

I can only imagine what my eyes will see

When Your face is before me

I can only imagine

Surrounded by Your glory what will my heart feel

Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still

Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall

Will I sing hallelujah will I be able to speak at all
