finding nothing to quench my despair.
Wandering thru the dark vale of shadow
no relief from life's pain found I there.
Then He whispered my name.
Jesus whispered my name.
He had whispered but I could not hear it
my sin had muffled the sound.
Then a lull in the tumult gave over
I listened and suddenly found.
He was whispering my name.
Jesus whispered my name.
"Come unto Me, My peace I give you
Lean on Me, stand in my rest.
I've paid the price of redemption
My strength can handle this test.
Believe, trust in My Name,
Trust in My Name."
My grateful heart filled with His presence
And accepted the grace in His voice.
All my self-effort was over
And I made His gift my choice.
I believed on His Name.
I trusted His Name
Now His power is with me
I'm redeemed my life is reclaimed.
In eternity one day I'll see Him
Because Jesus whispered my name.
He whispered my name
Jesus whispered my name…
About
Pastor's Biography
Leon McKinley Corder, Jr.
Biographical Sketch
Leon M. Corder, Jr. is the second of four children, born to Linda E. Petway and Leon M. Corder, Sr. According to his mother, he was always a spiritual child. From a very young age, he emulated Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He also gives credit to his stepfather, Edward Petway. His mother maintains that she always knew he would be a minister, even though he was known as the “class clown” in his youth.
Pastor Corder has always believed his calling is to win people (souls) to Christ. In following this calling, he founded Vine Hill Community Baptist Church in January, 2001. He was Senior Pastor of this church body until God sent him, in the same capacity, to Swift Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church on March 19, 2006. On June 4, 2006, the two church bodies merged under the already established name of Swift Tabernacle Missionary Baptist Church. Under this anointed shepherd, God is blessing the Swift Church family in countless ways. Membership has increased from 24 active members to over 300 dedicated and committed members. Under the spiritual leadership of Pastor Corder, members are actively participating in ministries that make a positive difference in people’s lives, in both the church and the community.
Pastor Corder always brings the word that convicts your soul and challenges you to change the way you act, think, feel, and speak about the power of God. He encourages you to always stay in the Word, and when times get hard, stand on the Word.
Pastor Corder became a Graduate of American Baptist College in May, 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Bible Theology. He is currently enrolled at Trevecca Nazarene College obtaining his Master's Degree. He will be graduating this May, 2013. Pastor Corder pledged Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Incorporated in 2009.
Pastor Corder is married to Audrey Ray Corder, who is dedicated to the Women's Ministry at Swift. First Lady is a Second Grade Teaher in the Metro Nashville School System. Pastor and First Lady Corder have a wonderful 19-year old son Louis, who excels academically and is deeply loved by his parents.
