This is an awesome anointed gospel song that touches my heart each time I hear it. To God be the Glory out of it. Thanks to the Downing for producing it. ❤😊
They certainly made a lifelong impact on me and our family. As a teenager our youth choir would sing many of their arrangements. I still remember packing out the Ovid Community Church in Anderson, In for their concerts. You felt like they were personally ministering to you. May God keep his hand on Ann and all who remain of this group.
This is so beautiful.. Such a Ministry..! Holy Spirit driven..! Would love to hear Dony sing " The Lighthouse"..! No one sings it like Dony!!.. God blessed this group with such a talent..!!
I loved the downings as child" still listen and cry o My mother isabelle chapin was very close to them. I will never forget the songs and the way the songsmske me feel
WOW, I had forgotten how powerful this song was when the Downings performed It! This song is a true prayer for any Christian. I have heard it done by many other groups, and individuals, and it stirs the soul, but this version can lift my spirit when I hear it. Thank you for sharing it!
It's my desire to live for Jesus, It's my desire to live for Him; Though often I've failed and brought Him much shame, It's my desire to live for Him. It's my desire to help someone today, Someone who might have failed to see the way; I too was once so lost, but I found my way to God, Now it's my desire to live for Him. Chorus: If you could see where Jesus brought me from to where I am today, You would know the reason why I love Him so. So you can take the world's wealth and riches; I don't need earth's fame. It's my desire, it's my desire, it's my desire to live for Him. >>> I also found this verse slightly different: Now you can take this world's wealth and riches, I don't need earth's power; It's my desire to live for Him.

Sarah D I had this album as well, and another one, too, and I played and this on the piano at church as a teen! I'm so happy to see this!
I have their music book, too
Dony Does So Good on this Song
It's my desire to live for Jesus,
It's my desire to live for Him;
Though often I've failed and brought Him much shame,
It's my desire to live for Him.
It's my desire to help someone today,
Someone who might have failed to see the way;
I too was once so lost, but I found my way to God,
Now it's my desire to live for Him.
Chorus:
If you could see where Jesus brought me from
to where I am today,
You would know the reason why I love Him so.
So you can take the world's wealth and riches;
I don't need earth's fame.
It's my desire, it's my desire, it's my desire to live for Him.
>>> I also found this verse slightly different:
Now you can take this world's wealth and riches,
I don't need earth's power;
It's my desire to live for Him.
