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

Then Came Jesus

I was wallowing in my sin
Captured by fear and doubt
There was nothing that I could do
To save myself

My eyes were dimmed to the light
And darkness was all I knew
Then I realized I had to trust
In someone else

Then came Jesus
Running to me
Showing me what
I could be
Light filled my path
His word warmed my heart
Precious Savior
Came to me

Now I open my eyes to see
All the mercy that he showed me
I’m in awe of His love for me
Every day

He saved me when I was lost
Gave His life on a rugged cross
I’m so glad that He paid the cost
He made a way

I saw Jesus
Running to me
Picking me up
When I was down
Cleaning me off
Leading the way
Setting my feet
On solid ground

Oh what a Savior
Oh what a friend
Loves me to
The very end
Pardons my sin
Fills me with hope
Peace fills my soul
Joy never ends

Then came Jesus
Running to me
Showing me what
I could be
Light filled my path
His word warmed my heart
Precious Savior
Came to me

He’s Coming Back For Me

I will sing a love song to Jesus
I will sing it loud with all my heart
I will sing a love song to Jesus
Every day. Every day

I will lift my hands and worship
I surrender all to my Lord
I will lift my hands to worship
Every day. Every day

CHORUS
What a Savior
He loves me so much
That he gave His life on Calvary
My Redeemer
Rose up once again alive
And He’s coming back for me
He’s coming back for me

I will bow my head in reverence
He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords
I will bow my head in reverence
Every day. Every day

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. He loves me. He loves me
Hallelujah. Hallelujah. He loves me and I love Him.

CHORUS

The Believers Life

The Lord is My Shepherd

The Lord is my shepherd in him I abide
He is my provider and He is my guide.
When trouble surrounds me in am I hide.
The Lord is my shepherd in him I abide

The Lord is my shepherd He fills every need
When I fully trust him I am blessed indeed.
My troubles will leave me if his word I heed
When He is my shepherd He fills every need

He leads me beside the Still Waters by day
In everything I am refreshed by the way
If I listen to him and his word I obey
He’ll lead me beside the Still Waters by day

He restores my soul when my strength gives out
I know that by his word there is never doubt
When he lifts me up my praise is a shout
He restores my soul when my strength gives out

He makes me to lie down in pastures of green
He keeps me hunger on His word I feed
I’ll never let anything come in between
He leads me to lie down in pastures of green

He leads me in paths of His righteousness
He showers me with His love and I’m blessed
I cannot imagine anything less
Than walking in paths of his righteousness

Yay though I walk through the valley of death
The Shadows around me will not cause distress
My fear will be gone and He’ll give me rest
Whenever I walk through the valley of death

I will fear no evil for He is with me
When I’m feeling danger His help I will see
I never will doubt that He’ll fill all my needs
I will fear no evil for He is with me

His rod and His staff are comforts indeed
They help guide my path when I cannot see
His peace I will know as I sit at His feet
His rod and His staff are comforts indeed

He prepares a table before my enemies
They can see all the help that my Shepherd gives me
They run off with fear because He protects me
I feast at the table by my enemies

He anoints my head with heavenly oil
His Spirit is with me amidst all my toil
The enemy’s darts He will constantly foil
He anoints me head with heavenly oil

My cup runneth over with goodness from Him
Again and again I can feel Him within
Every day with Him I will win
My cup runneth over with goodness from Him

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life As I bow on my knees
In His house I’ll dwell for eternity
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

The Believers Life

He is a Friend to Me

I can’t begin to tell you
What Jesus means to me
My Lord and my Savior
A friend when I’m in need

My head leans on His shoulder
His arms encircle me
His voice speaks in my ear
He watches over me

Everything I long for
Everything I need
Everything my heart desires
He has given me

I will praise His holy name
Jesus King of Kings
Lord of Lords Messiah
He is a friend to me

Forever I’m Yours

Make me to shine over all the earth
So that others might see only you
Make me a vessel of your peace
In all that I say and do
Make me yours
Make me yours

Make me bring joy to the people I meet
So that they know your near
Make me show love to all those in need
Help me your voice to hear
Make me yours
Make me yours

CHORUS
I am not my own
I’ve been bought with a price
I am yours
I lay my life down
At the foot of your cross
I am yours
Forever I’m yours

Make me an instrument of your peace
Make me the one who brings hope to all men
Make me yours
Make me yours

CHORUS

BRIDGE
And I will lift my voice
I will each day rejoice
You have filled me with joy
You have made me yours (REPEAT)

CHORUS
