Mighty is Our God

Lord of all Lords I love you
King of all Kings I praise you
God of all Gods I worship your name
Mighty is our God

I will lift up my voice to praise you
I will lift up my hands to praise you
I will lift up my heart to worship your name
Mighty is our God

Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Hallelujah. Mighty is our God

The Splendor of Your Spirit

Beauty all around me
Everywhere I see
Mercy overwhelming
Grace that blesses me

Peace is like a river
Joy flows up within
Love is like an ocean
Cleansing me from sin

Oh the glory
Of your presence
Everywhere I look
You are always there
Oh the splendor
Of your Spirit
Guiding me
Saving me
Hiding me
Surrounding me
With your love

Into the Wilderness

This is an old song I wrote from 2012. I felt the Holy Spirit telling me to post it this morning. I pray it blesses you.

My life is filled with ups and downs trying to find my way around
In a world that keeps me guessing everyday
And when I pray I just don’t know if the answer’s coming slow
Or if he’s showing me his plan another way.

CHORUS
He leads me into the wilderness from the mountaintop
He rows me into the storm then he calms the sea
I don’t need to know where he’s leading me or what he’s going to do
For I know that all he does is for my good

I will follow where he leads me
I will go when he says go
If he opens up a door I will walk through
And if he suddenly turns quiet and I cannot hear his voice
I will wait…..I will wait

CHORUS

END
I will wait. I will wait. I will wait on the Lord. I will wait

Words of Love

When I stop and closely listen
When I calm the thoughts inside
When I take the time to be still
When my inner man I find

Then I hear His gentle voice
Speaking words of love to me
I just want to hear him more
So I ask the Lord to speak

He says
I love you
I bled for you
I died for you
I rise again
I walk with you
I hear your prayers
I know your needs
I’m everywhere

One He says these things I know
I must lift my hands in praise
For the blood he shed for me
I just worship His sweet name

Jesus, Jesus
How I love you so
Jesus, Jesus
I’m so glad I know you

He says
I love you
I bled for you
I died for you
I rise again
I walk with you
I hear your prayers
I know your needs
I’m everywhere

 

He Shows Up

Though I’ve fallen once again on this journey
I’ve forgotten how to pick myself up
So I cry out to the Lord in my trouble
He shows up. He shows up

It’s amazing that in spite of my failure
He still loves me just the way I am
Every time I need a boost from my Savior
He shows up. He show up

CHORUS
He shows up when I am weary
He shows up when I am down
He shows up when I am reeling
In my fog of sin and doubt
He shows up and leans down to me
He shows up and lifts me out
When I cry out to the Lord
He shows up

I will do my best to follow in His ways
He has shown me what the best path is
I know that if I slip and fall again
He’ll show up. He’ll show up

CHORUS

BRIDGE
All I have to do is cry out to Him
All I have to do is say His name
He will come and lift me out of trouble
He will come to save the day

CHORUS

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
