Hello and
welcome to Magnify Him.
00:00:18.81\00:00:22.62
I'm Danita Jones
00:00:22.65\00:00:23.99
and I'm Lyndon Carriger.
00:00:24.02\00:00:25.59
You know we're so glad
that you tuned in today
00:00:25.62\00:00:28.89
Psalm 98:5 and 6 says,
00:00:28.92\00:00:30.79
"Sing unto the
Lord with the harp;
00:00:30.83\00:00:32.86
with the harp, and
the voice of a psalm.
00:00:32.89\00:00:35.53
With trumpets
and sound of cornet
00:00:35.56\00:00:38.10
making a joyful noise
before the Lord, the King. "
00:00:38.13\00:00:41.60
Wow! and Lyndon,
trumpets and coronet...
00:00:41.64\00:00:44.61
I feel like that's a clue
00:00:44.67\00:00:46.01
with the kind of show
that we're going to have today.
00:00:46.04\00:00:47.38
Well...
00:00:47.41\00:00:48.74
Oh, I'm already excited
that we may be able to hear
00:00:48.78\00:00:51.71
some instruments and some
voice in song in praise today.
00:00:51.75\00:00:56.15
Definitely, so sit back,
enjoy, relax, get your praise on
00:00:56.18\00:01:00.46
as you magnify Him.
00:01:00.49\00:01:02.99
Magnify the Lord
the King Magnify Him.
00:01:03.02\00:01:11.43
Everyone it is times like
these that I just really enjoy
00:01:11.47\00:01:15.87
sitting in this
chair here at Magnify Him.
00:01:15.90\00:01:18.77
I have a special
brother in Christ today...
00:01:18.81\00:01:21.48
an anointed,
talented brother in Christ
00:01:21.51\00:01:24.15
his name is Steve
Norman, he plays the Saxophone
00:01:24.18\00:01:27.68
Steve, welcome to
Magnify Him today.
00:01:27.72\00:01:30.55
Thank you.
00:01:30.59\00:01:32.22
How long have you been
playing your instrument?
00:01:32.25\00:01:35.32
Well I've been
playing on about...
00:01:35.36\00:01:38.09
going on about 23 years.
00:01:38.13\00:01:39.96
Twenty-three years...
when did you start playing?
00:01:40.00\00:01:43.00
I started playing
when I was 10-years old.
00:01:43.03\00:01:47.34
Ten... so I'll let people
do the math of how old you are.
00:01:47.37\00:01:49.84
So, you've been
playing since you were ten...
00:01:49.87\00:01:52.64
now you also told me backstage
00:01:52.67\00:01:54.74
that you're a
Pastor's Kid... correct?
00:01:54.78\00:01:56.51
That's correct...
00:01:56.54\00:01:58.11
So, how does that prepare you
00:01:58.15\00:01:59.98
for doing Music
Ministry now that you're older?
00:02:00.02\00:02:02.88
Well, I think it
prepares a person...
00:02:02.92\00:02:06.39
and it definitely prepares me
00:02:06.42\00:02:10.03
because it puts me in the place
00:02:10.06\00:02:13.56
it put me in the place
of ministering to people
00:02:13.60\00:02:16.93
at an early age,
00:02:16.97\00:02:18.43
my father would
often have me play
00:02:18.47\00:02:21.40
before and after his sermons,
00:02:21.44\00:02:23.74
at the home church
where he was stationed
00:02:23.77\00:02:27.58
or you know... traveling abroad
00:02:27.61\00:02:30.21
and I got to
minister to a lot of people,
00:02:30.25\00:02:34.08
and that's when I got my
first taste of the ministry.
00:02:34.12\00:02:37.59
Praise the Lord, you
are definitely ministering
00:02:37.62\00:02:40.32
to people... I hear
you have a testimony
00:02:40.36\00:02:42.72
go ahead and tell me
a little bit about that.
00:02:42.76\00:02:46.33
Well, you know, I
went blind at the age of 22
00:02:46.36\00:02:49.90
and I lost my
kidneys two years later,
00:02:49.93\00:02:54.44
and I had to be put on dialysis
00:02:54.50\00:02:57.64
and I was put on
the transplant list
00:02:57.67\00:03:01.84
to get a kidney and a pancreas,
00:03:01.88\00:03:05.95
and that came about
almost five years later.
00:03:06.01\00:03:10.99
Wow! how did all of that impact
00:03:11.02\00:03:15.29
your music ministry today?
00:03:15.32\00:03:17.49
Well, I think it
makes it stronger,
00:03:17.53\00:03:20.76
I think, you know the fact that
00:03:20.80\00:03:24.13
I have a
determination to serve God
00:03:24.17\00:03:27.67
in whatever
capacity He puts me in,
00:03:27.70\00:03:31.01
the fact that I
want to praise the Lord
00:03:31.04\00:03:34.18
because I know that
Jesus is the center of my joy
00:03:34.24\00:03:37.91
and I know that my
soul has been anchored
00:03:37.98\00:03:41.15
and I know that
Jesus... He leads us...
00:03:41.18\00:03:43.99
and, you know, I
think all of that
00:03:44.02\00:03:48.76
I can't really understand it
but the Lord just impacts people
00:03:48.79\00:03:55.23
when they hear my
testimony and they hear me play.
00:03:55.26\00:03:58.00
What an encouraging, powerful,
00:03:58.03\00:04:02.14
story you have
00:04:02.20\00:04:03.54
listen... how can
people get in touch with you
00:04:03.57\00:04:07.61
about your music ministry?
00:04:07.64\00:04:10.45
Praise God... you
can get in touch with me
00:04:10.48\00:04:13.88
through my Manager
who is also my wife.
00:04:13.92\00:04:17.02
Oh, that's great.
00:04:17.05\00:04:18.39
Yeah... her e-mail address is
00:04:18.42\00:04:21.99
len332@yahoo. com
00:04:22.02\00:04:27.50
And you're making this
your full-time ministry
00:04:27.53\00:04:30.57
so you're wanting
to go to area churches
00:04:30.60\00:04:33.03
and do concerts, correct?
00:04:33.07\00:04:35.00
Yes...
00:04:35.04\00:04:36.37
And you're also...
you're putting out a CD?
00:04:36.40\00:04:38.07
Yes, I am
working on a CD currently
00:04:38.14\00:04:41.64
so, yes...
00:04:41.68\00:04:43.65
Now, tell me...
you're about to do
00:04:43.68\00:04:46.45
a couple of songs for us,
00:04:46.51\00:04:47.85
what are the songs that
you're going to do today?
00:04:47.88\00:04:49.78
Well, the first song is,
"Savior Like a Shepherd Lead us"
00:04:49.82\00:04:53.29
and the second song is,
00:04:53.32\00:04:55.96
"Jesus, You're
the Center of my Joy"
00:04:55.99\00:04:58.26
Oh, those are great songs,
00:04:58.29\00:04:59.86
any reason why
you chose those two?
00:04:59.89\00:05:01.50
Well, the first song...
"Savior Like a Shepherd Lead us"
00:05:01.53\00:05:06.00
that song just... you know...
00:05:06.03\00:05:08.14
I'm blind... and a
lot of times you think
00:05:08.17\00:05:12.34
a blind person should have
00:05:12.37\00:05:14.44
someone guiding them,
00:05:14.48\00:05:16.34
well, I think there's no
better person to guide me
00:05:16.38\00:05:20.62
than the Savior.
00:05:20.65\00:05:21.98
Praise the Lord
for you, Brother Steve,
00:05:22.02\00:05:23.99
you know what? I'm
going to sit back here,
00:05:24.02\00:05:26.22
I'm going to relax
and I'm going to enjoy
00:05:26.25\00:05:28.42
Brother Steve
Norman and I pray...
00:05:28.46\00:05:30.39
you at home will... as well.
00:05:30.43\00:05:32.06
Piano playing...
00:05:32.09\00:05:39.83
more piano music...
00:05:39.87\00:05:47.54
Savior, like a shepherd lead me
00:05:47.58\00:05:54.08
Much we need Your tender care
00:05:54.12\00:06:00.56
In Your
pleasant pastures feed us
00:06:00.59\00:06:07.53
For our sins, Your folds prepare
00:06:07.56\00:06:14.47
Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus
00:06:14.50\00:06:21.61
You have bought us, Yours we are
00:06:21.64\00:06:28.92
Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus
00:06:28.95\00:06:38.06
You have bought us, Yours we are
00:06:38.09\00:06:47.40
Piano playing music...
00:06:47.44\00:06:53.44
We are Yours, please befriend us
00:06:53.48\00:07:01.88
Be the Guardian of our way
00:07:01.92\00:07:07.32
Keep Your flock,
from sin defend us
00:07:07.36\00:07:16.13
Seek us when we go astray
00:07:16.16\00:07:23.14
Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus
00:07:23.17\00:07:30.48
Hear, O hear us when we pray
00:07:30.51\00:07:38.85
Blessed Jesus, Blessed Jesus
00:07:38.89\00:07:48.66
Hear, O hear us when we pray
00:07:48.70\00:07:57.27
Hear, O hear us when we pray...
00:07:57.31\00:08:05.88
Hear, O hear us when
00:08:05.91\00:08:15.16
we pray
00:08:15.19\00:08:25.10
closing piano music.
00:08:25.13\00:08:29.54
more closing piano music
00:08:29.57\00:08:35.64
All of my real joy
is centered in Jesus.
00:08:35.71\00:08:41.55
Piano playing...
00:08:41.58\00:08:49.86
Piano playing,
00:08:49.89\00:08:58.13
Jesus,
00:08:58.17\00:09:02.07
You're the center of my joy
00:09:02.10\00:09:08.31
All that's good and perfect
00:09:08.34\00:09:14.55
comes from You
00:09:14.58\00:09:19.62
You're the heart of
00:09:19.65\00:09:22.89
my contentment
00:09:22.92\00:09:26.49
Hope for all I do
00:09:26.53\00:09:30.13
Jesus, You're
the center of my joy
00:09:30.17\00:09:39.07
When I've lost my direction
00:09:39.11\00:09:45.35
You're the compass for my way
00:09:45.38\00:09:51.39
You're the fire and the light
00:09:51.42\00:09:55.69
When nights are long and cold
00:09:55.72\00:09:59.93
In sadness,
00:09:59.96\00:10:04.17
You're my laughter
00:10:04.20\00:10:06.50
That shatters all my fears
00:10:06.53\00:10:11.94
When I'm all alone,
00:10:11.97\00:10:14.61
Your hand is there to hold
00:10:14.64\00:10:20.02
hold...
00:10:20.05\00:10:22.48
Jesus,
00:10:22.52\00:10:24.89
You're the center
00:10:24.95\00:10:26.69
of my joy
00:10:26.72\00:10:31.83
All that's good and perfect
00:10:31.86\00:10:38.27
comes from you

Hope for all I do
00:10:50.78\00:10:53.28
Jesus,
00:10:53.31\00:10:55.78
You're the center of my joy
00:10:55.82\00:11:02.12
You are why I find pleasure
00:11:02.16\00:11:07.83
In the simple things in life
00:11:07.86\00:11:13.77
You're the music in the meadows
00:11:13.80\00:11:19.67
and the streams
00:11:19.74\00:11:22.81
The voices of the children,
00:11:22.84\00:11:28.68
my family, and my home
00:11:28.72\00:11:33.62
You're the source and finish
00:11:33.66\00:11:37.29
of my highest dreams
00:11:37.33\00:11:42.46
Oh,
00:11:42.50\00:11:45.17
Jesus,
00:11:45.20\00:11:47.80
You are the
00:11:47.84\00:11:51.91
center of my joy
00:11:51.94\00:11:55.18
All that's perfect
00:11:55.21\00:11:59.71
comes from you
00:11:59.75\00:12:04.19
You're the heart
00:12:04.22\00:12:07.16

00:12:07.19\00:12:10.83
Hope for all I do
00:12:10.86\00:12:14.43
Jesus,
00:12:14.46\00:12:17.10
You're the center
00:12:17.13\00:12:20.30
Jesus,
00:12:20.34\00:12:22.14
You're the center
00:12:22.17\00:12:24.84
Jesus...
00:12:24.87\00:12:27.41
You're the center
00:12:27.44\00:12:30.68
Jesus
00:12:30.71\00:12:32.18
You are everything...
00:12:32.21\00:12:34.88
You are my hope
00:12:34.92\00:12:37.55
for tomorrow
00:12:37.59\00:12:40.52
When I'm lonely
00:12:40.56\00:12:41.99
deep inside
00:12:42.02\00:12:44.99
You're my joy
00:12:45.03\00:12:48.00
Oh Jesus
00:12:48.03\00:12:50.73
You're the center
00:12:50.77\00:12:55.64
of my help
00:12:55.67\00:12:58.01
You're my...
00:12:58.04\00:13:02.34
music...
00:13:02.38\00:13:06.61
You're my song...

You're my joy...
00:13:15.79\00:13:21.03
Oh Jesus
00:13:21.06\00:13:26.30
Jesus,
00:13:26.33\00:13:28.77
You're the center of my joy
00:13:28.80\00:13:36.48
joy...
00:13:36.54\00:13:39.95
my joy...
00:13:39.98\00:13:48.52
my joy.
00:13:48.56\00:13:56.87
Magnify the Lord the King
00:13:56.90\00:14:00.84
Magnify Him.
00:14:00.87\00:14:05.21
I am so excited to
have on the Program today
00:14:05.24\00:14:09.24
a wonderful couple that
have an amazing ministry
00:14:09.28\00:14:12.88
please help me welcome
00:14:12.91\00:14:14.48
Marguerite and Leslie
Samuel welcome to the Program.
00:14:14.52\00:14:17.55
Thank you. Thank you very much.
00:14:17.59\00:14:18.92
I just want to
get started first,
00:14:18.95\00:14:20.42
the fact that
you sing, Marguerite,
00:14:20.46\00:14:23.19
and Leslie... you play...
00:14:23.22\00:14:24.56
and the fact that
you all are together
00:14:24.59\00:14:25.96
but I do want to hear a
little bit of how you all met
00:14:25.99\00:14:28.86
and how this started.
00:14:28.90\00:14:31.93
Well, who do you
want to hear first.
00:14:31.97\00:14:33.44
Well, we can hear
your version first
00:14:33.47\00:14:34.90
because I know his is
probably going to be a little
00:14:34.94\00:14:36.47
bit different than
yours. Mine is too long...
00:14:36.50\00:14:37.91
Well, studying at
Andrews University,
00:14:37.94\00:14:41.04
about a year into it,
00:14:41.08\00:14:42.74
I saw him and I realized
that he played the piano
00:14:42.78\00:14:46.88
and I said, "You
know, he's pretty good
00:14:46.92\00:14:48.25
I think I want to ask
him to be my accompanist"
00:14:48.28\00:14:50.42
and so I
approached him and he agreed
00:14:50.45\00:14:52.82
and so, from then
on, our friendship grew
00:14:52.85\00:14:55.12
and the opportunities
arose and he could meet them
00:14:55.19\00:14:59.79
and we ministered together.
00:14:59.86\00:15:01.20
That is amazing and
what kind of led you
00:15:01.23\00:15:04.60
to realize that this
was something that could
00:15:04.63\00:15:07.50
not only help in the
ministry but blossom into
00:15:07.54\00:15:10.07
a wonderful
marriage that you all have?
00:15:10.11\00:15:12.41
Well, we... a few years later
00:15:12.44\00:15:16.08
we actually were
in a group together
00:15:16.11\00:15:18.61
a group that she
started with a friend
00:15:18.65\00:15:21.12
and I joined the Group later on
00:15:21.15\00:15:23.32
and eventually
what ended up happening
00:15:23.35\00:15:26.35
was the other friend left,
00:15:26.39\00:15:28.42
and I became a
Co-Director with her
00:15:28.46\00:15:30.29
and then we started
spending more time together
00:15:30.33\00:15:32.53
started to get to
know each other better
00:15:32.56\00:15:34.86
one thing led to another
00:15:34.90\00:15:36.23
and the next thing
you know we got married.
00:15:36.26\00:15:37.97
That is amazing and
how long has it been,
00:15:38.03\00:15:40.04
how long have you been married?
00:15:40.07\00:15:41.40
Eight years...
00:15:41.44\00:15:42.77
Wonderful and you
were telling me before
00:15:42.80\00:15:45.11
that you have a 21-month-old...
00:15:45.14\00:15:47.11
That is correct, little Noah...
00:15:47.14\00:15:49.01
that is amazing
00:15:49.04\00:15:50.51
and so now you have
this amazing ministry
00:15:50.55\00:15:52.91
you were telling me about the
other group that you all started
00:15:52.95\00:15:55.12
tell me a little
bit more about that
00:15:55.15\00:15:56.72
the journey...
00:15:56.75\00:15:58.09
It's called the
Journey Ministries
00:15:58.12\00:15:59.45
Journey Ministries, go ahead.
00:15:59.49\00:16:01.02
Yes, it started on the
campus of Andrews University
00:16:01.06\00:16:03.12
actually two
seminary students had an idea
00:16:03.16\00:16:05.93
and they met up with
me and another friend
00:16:05.99\00:16:08.66
who are musicians
studying in Andrews University
00:16:08.70\00:16:11.23
and I said,
"Let's start a group"
00:16:11.27\00:16:12.60
so my friend and I
were the first Directors,
00:16:12.63\00:16:15.20
Co-Directors... and
16 of us got together
00:16:15.27\00:16:18.04
had our first
concert in November 2003
00:16:18.07\00:16:20.34
and it's been
going strong ever since.
00:16:20.38\00:16:22.61
That is wonderful and
what is the kind of music
00:16:22.64\00:16:25.11
that you all do?
00:16:25.18\00:16:26.51
We do predominantly Spirituals
00:16:26.55\00:16:28.95
but we also do
Gospel, Anthems, Hymns,
00:16:28.98\00:16:32.79
some Contemporary...
here and there...
00:16:32.82\00:16:36.42
that is
remarkable and, of course,
00:16:36.49\00:16:38.39
we are going to hear
you sing a little later on,
00:16:38.43\00:16:40.80
and we're going to talk to you
in a second about your singing
00:16:40.86\00:16:43.23
I want to know a little bit
more about you playing the piano
00:16:43.26\00:16:45.57
how did that begin, what
age did you start playing?
00:16:45.60\00:16:48.07
Well, I started to
play around the age of 12
00:16:48.10\00:16:51.04
I started to take lessons
00:16:51.07\00:16:52.81
and I went to
lessons for a little while
00:16:52.84\00:16:54.78
and I remember coming
home and telling my parents
00:16:54.81\00:16:56.85
"I want to stop, I
can't do this anymore"
00:16:56.88\00:16:59.88
because what was happening was
00:16:59.91\00:17:01.85
you know, you had
the notes on the page
00:17:01.88\00:17:04.29
and you had to do
exactly what the notes said,
00:17:04.32\00:17:06.29
and if you deviated from that,
00:17:06.32\00:17:07.82
the teacher
didn't like it very much.
00:17:07.86\00:17:09.19
That is correct.
00:17:09.22\00:17:10.56
So, I stopped playing...
I stopped going to lessons
00:17:10.59\00:17:13.23
but I had a piano at home
so, I always loved the piano
00:17:13.29\00:17:15.90
but I just continued
kind of playing around at home
00:17:15.93\00:17:18.50
and learned a few
chords here and there,
00:17:18.53\00:17:21.07
and learned to
play in different keys
00:17:21.10\00:17:22.44
and I've been playing
since then and I love it.
00:17:22.47\00:17:24.94
And I love that you came
home and told your parents,
00:17:24.97\00:17:27.44
"I don't to be in this
box, I want to be able to play
00:17:27.48\00:17:30.21
what I feel" so that is great.
00:17:30.25\00:17:32.08
And you and your beautiful
voice you have an amazing voice,
00:17:32.11\00:17:34.78
we were able to hear
it during the Sound Check,
00:17:34.85\00:17:36.35
tell me how you
got started singing.
00:17:36.38\00:17:38.65
Well, I don't
remember not singing...
00:17:38.69\00:17:40.89
Wow! I think I was born singing
00:17:40.92\00:17:43.96
but the first time I remember
00:17:43.99\00:17:47.20
being on a stage
00:17:47.23\00:17:48.56
was actually when I
was in elementary school
00:17:48.63\00:17:50.83
maybe, somewhere
between first and third grade
00:17:50.87\00:17:53.07
and I was asked to sing
for Christmas presentation
00:17:53.10\00:17:56.10
and my parents helped
me memorize the carol,
00:17:56.14\00:18:00.38
"Away in a Manger" Oh...
00:18:00.41\00:18:02.11
I got up there, my
mom made me a nice dress
00:18:02.14\00:18:04.25
and I forgot the words,
00:18:04.31\00:18:06.38
and the whole
audience began to sing with me
00:18:06.41\00:18:09.18
it was exciting, scary,
and a great experience overall.
00:18:09.22\00:18:13.96
But that gave
you an amazing start
00:18:13.99\00:18:15.89
and I want to hear a little
bit about some of the songs
00:18:15.92\00:18:17.79
that you're going to
be doing for us today
00:18:17.83\00:18:19.33
what is the first song
that you're going to do for us?
00:18:19.39\00:18:21.60
The first song
is called, "Naaman"
00:18:21.63\00:18:23.00
Yes! and I love the song
00:18:23.03\00:18:25.80
this song is dear to me because
I know what it feels like
00:18:25.83\00:18:28.67
to experience a sickness
00:18:28.70\00:18:31.37
that you don't know
why you're having it
00:18:31.41\00:18:33.94
and if it will ever be cured
00:18:33.98\00:18:35.31
so I believe in the power of God
and He's done that in my life.
00:18:35.34\00:18:38.65
And that is a great
song by the great songwriter,
00:18:38.71\00:18:41.22
Eleanor Wright...
one of my favorites
00:18:41.25\00:18:43.75
and what is the second song
that you're going to be doing?
00:18:43.79\00:18:46.29
The second song is a hymn,
"Take My Life and Let It Be"
00:18:46.32\00:18:48.82
Hmmm... hmmm... Yes...
00:18:48.86\00:18:50.19
and that is good
00:18:50.23\00:18:51.56
you know a lot of
times we find in our churches
00:18:51.59\00:18:53.06
that we're losing
some of these hymns
00:18:53.09\00:18:54.43
so I'm glad that you're
carrying on that ministry.
00:18:54.46\00:18:56.40
It is wonderful
talking to the two of you
00:18:56.43\00:18:58.93
and I just want
to encourage people
00:18:58.97\00:19:01.04
to continue to
pray for this ministry
00:19:01.07\00:19:03.04
and all of the things
that you all are doing
00:19:03.07\00:19:05.77
in your life and
especially for your marriage
00:19:05.81\00:19:08.34
and your son
because you all have
00:19:08.38\00:19:09.71
an awesome thing here
00:19:09.74\00:19:11.08
and now without further
ado you all sit back and enjoy
00:19:11.11\00:19:14.35
Ms. Marguerite and Leslie Samuel
00:19:14.38\00:19:17.05
as they sing and
play for you today.
00:19:17.09\00:19:18.75
Piano playing...
00:19:18.79\00:19:26.80
Piano playing some more
00:19:26.83\00:19:32.80
Naaman the Leper went down
into the Jordan seven times,
00:19:32.83\00:19:39.97
he came up shoutin',
00:19:40.01\00:19:42.01
oh Lord, I see the change
00:19:42.04\00:19:45.55
Naaman the leper went down
00:19:45.58\00:19:49.28
into the Jordan seven times
00:19:49.32\00:19:52.99
he came up shoutin',
00:19:53.02\00:19:55.32
Oh Lord, I see the change
00:19:55.36\00:19:59.33
Well, if you don't
know what a leper is
00:19:59.36\00:20:03.57
I want you to lend an ear
00:20:03.60\00:20:06.90
Open the pages of your mind
00:20:06.94\00:20:09.87
and I'll paint a picture there
00:20:09.90\00:20:12.81
See, there were
sores on Naaman's body,
00:20:12.84\00:20:16.31
spreading from limb to limb
00:20:16.34\00:20:19.55
He'd seen many a doctor,
00:20:19.58\00:20:22.82
there was no hope for him
00:20:22.88\00:20:26.09
Till one day a
little servant girl said,
00:20:26.12\00:20:30.13
"Master, good news!
00:20:30.16\00:20:32.56
I know somebody,
00:20:32.59\00:20:34.56
who knows somebody,
00:20:34.60\00:20:36.50
who knows what to do for you. "
00:20:36.53\00:20:39.47
So, she sent him to the prophet,
00:20:39.50\00:20:42.64
Naaman couldn't believe his ears
00:20:42.67\00:20:45.41
When the prophet told Naaman
00:20:45.44\00:20:47.94
to dip in the water
00:20:47.98\00:20:49.58
way down there
00:20:49.61\00:20:51.61
Naaman, the leper went down
00:20:51.65\00:20:55.08
into the Jordan seven times
00:20:55.12\00:20:58.52
he came up shoutin',
00:20:58.55\00:21:00.72
Oh, Lord, I see my change
00:21:00.76\00:21:05.03
Well he went on
down in the water,
00:21:05.06\00:21:09.16
one time and then again
00:21:09.20\00:21:12.43
He began to wonder as
he looked down at his hands
00:21:12.47\00:21:17.21
See there were plenty
of rivers in his homeland,
00:21:17.24\00:21:21.91
where the waters
ran crystal clear
00:21:21.94\00:21:25.05
And he wondered why the prophet
00:21:25.11\00:21:28.28
had to send him way down there
00:21:28.32\00:21:31.45
so he went on down
for the fourth time,
00:21:31.49\00:21:35.36
and he started to go back home
00:21:35.39\00:21:38.56
When a voice called out to him,
00:21:38.59\00:21:41.73
"Naaman! Hold on!
00:21:41.76\00:21:44.77
There's no power in the water,
00:21:44.83\00:21:48.24
none in the muddy stream
00:21:48.27\00:21:51.31
You see the power
00:21:51.34\00:21:52.67
it comes from
doing what God says!"
00:21:52.71\00:21:57.48
Naaman the leper went down
00:21:57.51\00:22:00.82
into the Jordan seven times,
00:22:00.88\00:22:03.62
And he came up shoutin',
00:22:03.65\00:22:07.02
Oh Lord, I see my change
00:22:07.06\00:22:10.33
So, he went on
down for the fifth time,
00:22:10.36\00:22:14.63
body still covered with sores
00:22:14.66\00:22:17.90
Seemed the muddy Jordan
00:22:17.93\00:22:20.64
made his pain a whole lot more
00:22:20.67\00:22:23.94
Six times in the Jordan,
00:22:23.97\00:22:27.41
six times... no change...
00:22:27.44\00:22:30.78
Six times and
then he looked and said
00:22:30.81\00:22:34.42
Six times no change
00:22:34.45\00:22:37.49
Well, I know he
must have thought somehow
00:22:37.52\00:22:40.76
way back in his mind
00:22:40.79\00:22:44.33
He'd be free
from the dread disease
00:22:44.36\00:22:47.43
without dippin' seven times
00:22:47.46\00:22:50.33
Well, I know he
must have doubted
00:22:50.37\00:22:53.67
God's promises to be true
00:22:53.70\00:22:56.84
But, Naaman had to learn
that when God said, "Seven"
00:22:56.87\00:23:00.98
six won't do
00:23:01.01\00:23:03.18
Naaman, the leper went down
00:23:03.21\00:23:06.51
into the Jordan seven times,
00:23:06.55\00:23:09.75
he came up shoutin',
Oh Lord I see my change
00:23:09.78\00:23:15.99
Naaman the leper went down
00:23:16.02\00:23:19.53
into the Jordan seven times
00:23:19.59\00:23:22.90
he came up shoutin', Oh Lord,
00:23:22.93\00:23:26.23
He came up shoutin'
00:23:26.27\00:23:28.24
Hallelujah! He came up shoutin',
00:23:28.27\00:23:32.84
he came up shoutin',
00:23:32.87\00:23:34.64
oh Lord
00:23:34.68\00:23:36.11
He came up shoutin',
00:23:36.14\00:23:37.88
oh Lord
00:23:37.91\00:23:42.32
I see...
00:23:42.35\00:23:48.72
the change!
00:23:48.79\00:23:55.10
shoutin', oh Lord
00:23:55.13\00:23:58.80
I see the change!
00:23:58.83\00:24:02.74
Piano playing...
00:24:02.77\00:24:08.21
More piano playing...
00:24:08.24\00:24:13.15
I just want the Lord
to use me anyway He can.
00:24:13.18\00:24:17.45
Piano playing...
00:24:17.49\00:24:24.23
More Piano playing...
00:24:24.26\00:24:32.60
Take my life
00:24:32.63\00:24:37.47
and let it be
00:24:37.51\00:24:42.24
Consecrated, Lord, to Thee
00:24:42.28\00:24:50.99
Take my hands
00:24:51.02\00:24:54.82
and let them move
00:24:54.86\00:24:58.59
At the impulse of Thy love,
00:24:58.63\00:25:06.90
At the impulse of Thy love.
00:25:06.94\00:25:15.14
Take my feet
00:25:15.18\00:25:18.98
and let them be
00:25:19.01\00:25:22.85
Swift and beautiful for Thee.
00:25:22.88\00:25:31.16
Take my voice
00:25:31.19\00:25:34.76
and I will sing,
00:25:34.83\00:25:38.33
Ever only for my King
00:25:38.37\00:25:46.34
Ever only for my King.
00:25:46.37\00:25:54.32
Take my love,
00:25:54.35\00:25:57.99
my Lord, I pour
00:25:58.02\00:26:01.62
At Thy feet its treasure store.
00:26:01.66\00:26:08.93
Take myself and I will be
00:26:08.96\00:26:16.74
Ever, only,
00:26:16.77\00:26:20.54
for my King

Program what a blessing!
00:26:50.24\00:26:53.58
and those testimonies Yeah...
00:26:53.61\00:26:55.44
Steven's testimony...
00:26:55.51\00:26:57.11
Yeah, I can't believe the
things he's had to go through
00:26:57.15\00:27:00.52
and the fact that he still gives
every ounce of his life to God
00:27:00.55\00:27:04.92
I mean, what a testimony!
what an encouraging testimony
00:27:04.95\00:27:07.86
Absolutely...
00:27:07.89\00:27:09.22
I wanted to
throw in there though
00:27:09.26\00:27:10.59
that he brought a
Piano Player with him
00:27:10.63\00:27:12.13
his Pianist and his
name is Terrence Brown
00:27:12.16\00:27:15.93
he wanted me to tell you
that you can listen to his music
00:27:15.96\00:27:19.50
at terrencetracks. com
00:27:19.53\00:27:21.40
And he and Steven have
such a remarkable ministry
00:27:21.44\00:27:23.84
and the fact that they
are willing to continue
00:27:23.87\00:27:26.21
to share that... is amazing
00:27:26.24\00:27:27.58
Yeah...
00:27:27.61\00:27:28.94
Marguerite and Leslie Samuel
00:27:28.98\00:27:31.05
they have a
special place in my heart
00:27:31.08\00:27:33.55
you know, my parents actually
ministered through music
00:27:33.58\00:27:36.45
in their
marriage and I love to see
00:27:36.48\00:27:38.95
married couples who
come together in Christ
00:27:38.99\00:27:41.22
and then continue to
want to minister to people
00:27:41.26\00:27:44.69
in music that is a great thing.
00:27:44.73\00:27:46.53
It certainly is...
00:27:46.56\00:27:47.93
So, we're going to continue
to lift their marriage up
00:27:47.96\00:27:49.96
and their ministry up
00:27:50.00\00:27:51.33
and of course their
little one in prayer.
