Youth Alive NSW - To Live is Christ

From the album Elevate (2001)
Lyrics:
I make a vow
My life will always honour you
Whether I live or die
I belong to Him
He bore my sin
I owe this life to my saving King
Hallelujah, I am not my own
You are in control
Hallelujah
For me to live is christ
And to die is gain
No matter what price i pay
I choose to give this life away
Only by the cross I am saved
If you like this, check out my playlist "Underground worship" for lots of songs that are great and somewhat unheard of... God Bless

I remember hearing this song at youth camp back in 2004. A very anointed young lady bout 19 years old, playing piano with a strong Mariah Carey type of voice. Unforgettable and to hear this beautiful version blesses me 🥲

[@bextacylegs11]

By any chance do you have her album "Captured"? I have been looking for it for years and would die to get a copy or a USB or something so I can hear those songs again

[@katewray2253]

[@lorirocks777]

She has a wonderful voice. Does she sing on any other albums? I always wondered who that was and how I could get more :-)

The Lord Jesus taught His disciples for three years or more. When Peter spoke on the day of Pentecost, his statement ( Acts 2:38 ) was a concise summary of what the Lord had taught him. He said: Repent Be baptized ( in the Name ) You will receive the gift of the Holy Ghost We are commanded to be obedient to the Lord. If you truly believe in Jesus, then what are you waiting for? Find a United Pentecostal church, and get ready! The Lord will return soon.

Kate Spence Wray's husband Mark Wray, at the time Senior Pastor at Lifehouse Church Coffs Harbour, was caught out recently having an adulterous affair with a much younger 27 year old worship leader. He has been stood down. I feel for Kate Spence Wray. They have five children. I don't know the status of their marriage. It will be very hard to make it what it was before this secret adulterous affair.

[@lorirocks777]

It shows how important praying for leaders is. God can turn this situation around for good, I'm sure of it. Is Kate the singer?

[@donaldelley2802]

@@lorirocks777 Yes Kate Spence Wray is the singer. Her parents Steve and Bev Spence founded Lifehouse Church Coffs Harbour. Her mother Bev is a very fine Christian and a lovely person. They retired and Kate's husband took over a head pastor. Then this adulterous affair with a 27 year old married worship leader was discovered. That's all I know. A reader of my blog-site informed me. Another reader informed me today the latest pastor also has lust issues...

[@lorirocks777]

@@donaldelley2802 Lust is a very common issue. It's good to have examples in the Bible of people God was able to use after the issue was dealt with.

[@cholsuful]

How can I find this on itunes?

[@captainshan9047]

cholsuful you can’t- all the album is here on KZbin though

[@Dragstersol]

does anyone know where to find the piano score for this song?

[@afteryou21]

I learned it by ear. Could never find the sheet.

[@SharonJane]

LifeHouse Coffs Harbour may still have them.

[@chelzyhanna]

who sang this song any ideas???

[@MegaPriviledge]

Darlene Zschech

[@captainshan9047]

Not Darlene, her name is Kate Spence, used to be part of Youth Alive NSW Australia

[@michaelfelisilda6513]

The Original one I think would be Parachute band

[@SharonJane]

Kate Spence sang and wrote it. She has an amazing gift from God for writing songs.
