 My heart sings out your praises
 Joyful Hallelujahs 
 Worshiping your presence 
 Lifting up your name
  
 Glory in the highest 
 Highest adoration
 You alone I worship
 Lifting up your name
  
 Jesus, blessed Savior
 Lord of heaven and earth
 Jesus, mine forever
 Living in my heart
  
 Jesus, King of all Kings
 Master of my future
 Blessed Lord of all things
 That is who you are!
  
 So I will sing your praise 
 And magnify your name
 Jesus, Lovely Jesus
 Jesus, Lord forever
 Jesus, blessed Jesus 
 Lover of my heart.

Lay Your Burdens Down

1 Reply 
 Early morning, waiting
 To hear the voice of God
 Calling to me deep within my heart
 Listening so intently
 For the Spirit's call
 
 Suddenly His voice comes like a shout
 I am here to heal you
 Lay your burdens down
 Let me touch you where it hurts the most
 I am here to save you
 Give me everything
 
 Let me hold you in my loving arms
 I hear Him calling, longing
 To draw me close to Him
 So he can speak so gently in my ear
 I slowly turn to greet Him
 Into my life this day
 
 And then I hear Him speak some words of cheer
 I am here to rescue
 Take you from your trials
 Bring you into freedom from your flesh
 Let me overwhelm you
 Fill you with my grace
 
 Give you faith to overcome your fears
 Finally I yield to Him
 Peace does flood my soul
 The world and all its trials fades away
 I'm leaning on His bosom
 He holds me in His arms
 
 I'm ready to go out and face the day
 For He has come and spoken
 Truth into my life
 That He is with everywhere I go
 And I can rest assured
 That He is always mine
 And in His loving hands I find my home.

I Don’t Know

 Why He came to earth at all
 I don’t know
 Why He made home in a stall
 I don’t know
 Why He taught the Fathers’ ways
 Why He showered me with grace
 Why He called me by my name
 I don’t know
  
 Why He took the scars and stripes
 I don’t know
 Why He sacrificed His life
 I don’t know
 Why He came to earth to die
 Why He loves both you and I
 Why He even cares at all\
 I don’t know
  
 CHORUS
 I think it’s His love
 His everlasting love
 He loved the world so much
 He gave His only Son
 That all who would believe
 Will gain eternal love
 The questions that I have
 Are answered by this truth
 God loves us more than we deserve
  
 Why He builds me a mansion
 I don’t know
 Why He eases all my tension
 I don’t know
 Why He even cares at all
 Why He loves me when I fall
 Why He gives His grace so freely
 I don’t know
  
 CHORUS
 
 BRIDGE
 Now I know His healing is for me
 Now I know deliverance is for me
 Now I know redemption is for me
 Now I know salvation is for me
 Now I know forgiveness is for me
 Now the Holy Spirit is for me
 Now I know His joy
 Now I know His peace
 Now I know He did it all for me

An Undeserving Sinner

 Praise to the King! He reigns on high.
 His majesty fills the heavens
 And His glory lights the sky.
 His mercy reaches to my heart
 And His grace saves me from myself
 What a wonderful, loving God we serve.
 Who sent His son, His only son
 To come to this earth, giving up His throne
 And endured suffering and shame
 To die for me.
  
 He was beaten and bruised
 Ridiculed and mocked
 Hung on a cross, even though He was innocent
 He gave up His life - it was not taken from Him
 He gave His life so that I could have eternal life
 He is so gracious and merciful.
  
 I was an undeserving sinner,
 and had turned my back on God.
 I was wretched, and cursed God
 Yet He loved me so much
 That He sent His son
 To die for me.
  
 Now I will serve Him the rest of my days
 He is worthy of my praise. 
 He gave His life for me,
 So I will give my life to Him.
 Praise to the King. He reigns on high.

Keep Me Through the Night

 Early morning, waking up
 I rise from off my bed
 And realize quite instantly
 That I am not dead
 So I shake my head real slowly
 From side to side it flows
 And a smile comes upon my face
 It's time to praise the Lord
  
 I praise Him that He gives me breath
 To wake me up this day
 I praise Him that my eyes still work
 To see me on my way
 I praise Him that I hear the sounds
 That filter through my room
 I praise Him that He's there with me
 That I am not alone
  
 I praise Him that my arms and hands
 Still have the strength to hold
 I praise Him that my legs will work
 To take me where untold
 I praise Him that I feel His love
 Still shining from above
 I praise Him that His spirit
 Still comes in like a dove
 
 And now, five minutes in the day
 I know His wondrous grace
 Has kept me through the night again
 So I can praise His name

I Lay me Down

 I lay me down
 By the rivers of living water
 His word refreshing my soul
 Giving me life
 Renewing my mind
 Transforming my soul
 I lay me down
 In green pastures
 Provided by my Lord
 To encourage me
 To nourish me
 Tio help me grow in Him
 I lay me down
 Resting in His peace
 Surrounded by His love
 My worries subside
 My spirit rests in Him
 I am blessed in His presence

Endless Praise

 I don’t think I can live a day without you
 You have always been there for me, good times or bad
 You have taken my doubts away
 And replaced them with boundless faith
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I have come to know you are always for me
 You have opened my blinded eyes and now I see
 Your word is the path of life
 Your cross was my sacrifice
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I can place all my fears and failures at your altar
 You forgive all of my iniquities
 I can rest in your gentle arms
 Safe from all worldly harm
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I can come to you every time I’m lonely
 Your Holy Spirit will fill me up and comfort me
 You lift me up when I am down
 In you my joy and peace abound
 What a wonderful God you are to me
  
 I will tell everyone about your mercy
 I will tell them you saved my soul from hell’s despair
 You show to me your boundless grace
 I give to you my endless praise
 What a wonderful God you are to me

Fill the Will of God

 Let us journey on
 Not in our own strength 
 Not by our own power
 Not following our own spirit
 But by the Holy Spirit within us
 Let us journey on
 Not on our own path
 Not by our own will
 Not following our own plans
 But with the Holy Spirit leading us
 Don’t worry about where he might lead you
 Or what you might have to leave behind
 Let us journey on
 Let us hear the call
 Let us leave our cares behind
 Let us journey on
 In the Spirit's might
 Let us fill the will of God

Consider

 When I consider all that He has done for me
 When I consider all the love that came from Calvary
 When I consider that he died so I could be set free
 I can't help but praise His name
 When I look up to the heavens and see His majesty
 When I see the trees to colors and the wind blow mightily
 When I hear the bird sing sweetly as the sun dawns in the East
 I can't help but praise His name
 He is always there to guide me
 Always right beside me
 Always there to pick me up if I should start to fall
 He is there to hear my prayers
 He is there to dry my tears
 That is why I praise His name
 When I lie my body down, and try to go to sleep
 I can hear His voice speak softly as the day fades quietly
 He whispers in my ear "My Son I love you, Oh so dear
 I can’t help but praise His name.
