I Need You Lord

I need you Lord
In my trials
In my sorrow
In my weakness
In tomorrow
In my heartache
When my faith goes
I need you Lord

Not a week
Not a day
Not an hour
Not a minute
Not a second
Not a blink
That I don’t need you Lord

Come to me Lord
I seek your face
Come to me Lord
I need your grace
Come to me Lord
I’ll give you praise
Oh how I need you Lord

All For Me

All For Me

I was stuck in miry clay
All alone deep in my sin
When the Savior came to me
As I was

He shed His blood for me
Rose again to give me life
Today I stand with Him
As I am

CHORUS
Yesterday, today, forever He will never change
His love and His sweet peace always remain
I can place my trust in Him
For He washed away my sin
Forever I will lift my hands in praise

He’s coming back for me
I will look upon His face
Forever with my Lord
I will be

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Yesterday I was lost, He paid the cost
Today I am set free He ransomed me
Tomorrow He will come in clouds above
All for me. All for me

CHORUS

Jesus Life

You Are Precious

Lead me to the cross where you suffered and died
Lead me to the cross where your grace is alive
You said Father forgive them they know now what they do
Lead me to the cross where my life is renewed

I fall down before you for freedom from sin
I fall down before you to have peace within
You said it is finished my shame is erased
I fall down before you on my knees to pray

You are precious, more precious
Than all this world can afford
You are precious, so precious
Make me yours, Lord, make me yours

Effective Prayer

Worthy Is he

Something inside me cries out to praise Him
To lift Him high and glorify His name
To shout out loud above the crowd His praise
Worthy is He. Worthy is He

Something inside me just wants to touch Him
To lift up my voice as I rejoice in Him
My praise lifted High where He will abide within
Worthy is He. Worthy is He

Worthy is the Lamb, the King of all Kings
Worthy is the Lord of Lords
Worthy is my Savior, redeemer and friend
Worthy is He. Worthy is He

You’re Always With Me

When I am weary you make me strong
When I am lonely you come along
When I am sad you give me a song
You lift me up, Lord Jesus

When I’m in darkness you give me light
When I feel blinded you give me sight
When all seems lost you ease my plight
You lift me up, Lord Jesus

CHORUS
Out of the storm
Out of the waves
Out of the ashes
And miry clay
Out of my sin
Into your grace
You lift me up, Lord Jesus

When I feel hopeless you bring your love
When I am wandering your Spirit comes
When I’m defeated you overcome
You lift me up, Lord Jesus

CHORUS

BRIDGE
I do not have to live here alone
You’re always with me
You’re always with me
I can see clearly for your light has shone
You’re always with me
You’re always with me

CHORUS

Listen Closely

I can hear you calling
Calling out to me
Hoping I will listen
To your words of peace

I can hear you whisper
In my quiet times
Telling me you love me
Words that give me life

Help me to listen closely
To your words today
I want to draw in closer
I want to know your ways

For your ways are perfect
You’re always good to me
If I will listen closely
Forever I will be
Yours

What A Savior to Me

Blessing and glory and honor and praise
To the Lamb that was slain
Blessing and glory and honor and praise
To the Lamb that was slain
For he is worthy to be praised
He is worthy to be praised
Blessing and glory and honor and praise
To the Lamb that was slain.

I lift my hands to the heavens
My heart to the sky
My eyes lift to see Him
My voice glorifies
I sing hallelujah
To the Lamb on the throne
What a Savior to me’
What a Savior to me

I Want to Go

I want to go where I see His face
I want to go where I feel His pain
I want to go where I hear His voice
I want to go to the cross

I want to go where His mercy flows
I want to go where His love arose
I want to go where His life was given
I want to go to the cross

CHORUS
At the cross He gave His life
As a sacrifice for me
So that I could spend my life with Him
In eternity

At the cross He took my sin and doubt
So that I could shout I’m free
I will bow before the Lamb of God
Jesus, Jesus

I want to go where my debt was paid
I want to go where my life was saved
I want to go where my prayers were heard
I want to go to the cross

CHORUS

BRIDGE
All my praise to Him
All my heart I give
All my love
All my worship to Him (Repeat)

CHORUS

The Believers Life

Your Love Was Enough

My will was not enough
To wipe away my sin
But your love was enough
To wash me deep within

I could not calm myself
And find an inner peace
But your love was enough
To set my heart at ease

I rarely left my sorrow
To find an life of joy
But your love was enough
To make my heart rejoice

I looked out to the future
And found my hope was gone
But your love was enough
To make my future strong

Your love was enough
For you sent your only Son
To die for me that day
On the sting of Calv’ry’s cross

Your love was enough
When you rose Him from the dead
I’m no longer bound for hell
But heavens home instead

Your love was enough
For you covered me with grace
Your mercy touched my heart
And all my past erased

I’m a new man now
And your love has captured me
Your love is enough
So that yours I’ll always be
