Mine changes from day to day..
Right now my favorite is Praise You in this Storm by Casting Crowns..
I’ll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I’ve cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

Face down by Matt redman
Welcomed in to the courts of the King
I've been ushered in to Your presence
Lord, I stand on Your merciful ground
Yet with every step tread with reverence
And I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around
Yes, I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around
Who is there in the heavens like You?
And upon the earth, who's Your equal?
You are far above, You're the highest of heights
We are bowing down to exalt You
So let Your glory shine around
Let Your glory shine around
King of glory, here be found
King of glory

In Your Left Hand
John Olmstead
1. In your left hand you hold the universe,
All creation heaven wide….
You made everything dazzling and bright
All for the pleasure of your eye…..
Chorus
But, it’s your right hand that reaches down to me,
Lifts me up so I can see….you reaching down to save a fallen (1 world,) (2 race) (3 man)
It’s you right hand that sets (it, them, me) free..
2. In your left hand you hold the whole world,
Everything made from east to west
You framed the mountains, you set the seas,
Declared it all your very best
(chorus)
Bridge
Jesus sits at your right hand
There enthroned high priest and king
All creation declares he is LORD,
And the universe sings, hear the universe sing
3. In your left hand you hold the hearts of kings,
Nations fall and nations rise
You set your glory before the eyes of man,
And wrote your name across the skies..
(end with chorus)

This is also (one of) my favourites, too! But I especially love it for flagging to - I have the most wonderful flag routine for it. I did it for some friends a while back and some were moved to tears by the combination of the song and the flags.
But to be honest, my choice changes from day to day and mood to mood. I have about 90 songs on my mp3 player in that plays in my car and I love every one of them!!!

: Dancing with you:
I put my headset on when I am doing dishes.. and I dance in the kitchen "in private"..
One Sunday, my Pastor comes to me & says.. Jesus wants you to know that He loves it when you dance for Him at home..
Pastor says, I didn't know you dance at home... I said no one does.. not even my hubby.. the only one that knows that is God.. :) So I knew where that message came from..

Well, we know that the Lord loves dancing - I just think of David dancing before the Lord! Wow!
Recently I've been listening to the music on Calvary Satellite Network - sort of alternative worship music, mostly by large worship teams and it's sooooo beautiful. So I've been dancing alot - behind the curtains, so I don't frighten the neighbors! :D

Right now I'm really diggin' Brenton Brown's new one:Hosanna
Brenton Brown
Verse 1
Praise is rising
Eyes are turning to You
We turn to You
Hope is stirring
Hearts are yearning for You
We long for You
'Cause when we see You
We find strength to face the day
In Your presence
All our fears are washed away
Washed away
Chorus
Hosanna hosanna
You are the God who saves us
Worthy of all our praises
Hosanna hosanna
Come have Your way among us
We welcome You here Lord Jesus
Verse 2
Hear the sound of
Hearts returning to You
We turn to You
In Your kingdom
Broken lives are made new
You make us new
'Cause when we see You
We find strength to face the day
In Your presence
All our fears are washed away
Washed away
...and Chris Tomlin's remake of Amazing Grace, which is so new it hasn't even been recorded yet! Basically, it's Amazing Grace, with the following refrain added:My chains are gone
I've been set free
My God my Savior
Has ransomed me
And like a flood
His mercy reigns
Unending love
Amazing Grace

Is that your song that you made?
Yes,
One morning I was praying before church in our sanctuary. I was pondering how great the universe is and how the heavens declare the glory of God.
The LORD spoke to me in my spirit. He said, “All these things you are pondering I hold in my left hand.” I asked the LORD what about His right hand. He said, “My right hand is so I can reach down and touch your cheek”
I went home after church and wrote that song.
(that’s why its my favorite)

I have been enjoying this hymn:
Father, Long before Creation
Hymns, #33
1. Father, long before creation,
Thou hadst chosen us in love;
And that love, so deep, so moving,
Draws us close to Christ above,
And will keep us, and will keep us,
Firmly fixed in Christ alone,
Firmly fixed in Christ alone.
2. Though the world may change its fashion,
Yet our God is e’er the same;
His compassion and His cov’nant
Through all ages will remain.
God’s own children, God’s own children,
Must forever praise His name,
Must forever praise His name.
3. God’s compassion is my story,
Is my boasting all the day;
Mercy free and never failing
Moves my will, directs my way.
God so loved us, God so loved us,
That His only Son He gave,
That His only Son He gave.
4. Loving Father, now before Thee
We will ever praise Thy love;
And our song will sound unceasing
Till we meet Thy Son above,
Giving glory, giving glory,
To our God and to the Lamb,
To our God and to the Lamb.
The tune is here: http://www.hymnal.net/
and it is under New Tunes and the title is Father, Long before Creation

Also, "Holy," by Shane & Shane from the "Upstairs" Album, and Shane & Shane's "Mercy Reigns."

Right now my favorite song is old-time gospel. (My favorite song changes often.)
I Will Follow Thee
Sung by: Vestal Goodman (The "Queen" of Gospel music)
Verse One:
God's people were in bondage
No one to lead them out
Until the Lord said,
Moses, turn your steps about.
He looked toward the burning bush,
Then took off his shoes.
On holy ground Moses cried,
Lord I'll follow you!
Chorus:
I will, I will follow thee
Over mountains high
Or on the stormy sea.
And when I hear your voice Lord
No matter how I feel
I'm will leave my burden there
Lord I'll follow thee!
Verse Two:
I've walked alone at midnight
Cried my share of tears
Had troubles all around me
For many, many years
But midnight all has vanished
My troubles had to flee
When I heard my Savior say,
Will you follow me?
(Chorus)
