Oh, What A Savior He is to Me

Leave a reply 
I once was bound but now I’m free
I once was blind but now I see
I once was troubled but now have peace
Oh, what a Savior He is to me

I once had fear but now have faith
I once was guilty but He took my place
I once was a sinner but he showed me grace
Oh, what a Savior He is to me

What a Savior He is to me
Took my sin, nailed it to a tree
All my shame and guilt gone forevermore
Gave me new life, my heart restored

I once had sorrow but now have joy
I once had despair, but hope I enjoy
I once was so poor, but now riches untold
Oh, what a Savior He is to me 

What a Savior He is to me
Gives me life eternally
Relieves all my fears and all of my doubts
From all of my troubles He leads me out

So, I will praise Him, I will lift my voice
Up to the heavens with a shout of praise
So, I will praise Him, I will lift His name
Higher and higher will I lift my praise.

I’m Resting

I’m resting today in the power of His love
There is no greater power on earth
His love never fails and it never gives up
I’m resting today in His love

I’m resting today in the light of His joy
There is no greater happiness found
His joy lifts me up when this life gets me down
I’m resting today in His joy

I’m resting today in the calm of His peace
There is nothing that unsettles me
His peace stills the wind and the waves when they come
I’m resting today in His peace

I’m resting today in the strength of His hope
There is no way I’ll let go of Him
His hope lets me know that my future is bright
I’m resting today in His peace

I hope that today you are resting in Him
There is no greater life than this
To know that the Savior is walking with you
Please rest today in Him

I Won’t Forget

I was walking down the street just the other day
With no set destination on my mind
My headphones were in place
As I walked a steady pace
I had set out just to pass some time

Then a song came on that got my feet a dancing
The beat set me in motion, feeling fine
I raised my arms up high
And my feet felt really light
I felt like I had just grown wings to fly

The song gave praise to Jesus Christ my Lord
They sang hallelujah all in one accord
It set my heart ion fire
With a Holy Ghost desire
To worship right along as I went forward

Hallelujah to the Lamb who was slain
Hallelujah to the one who has risen again
He died to set me free
And He’s coming back for me
Hallelujah to the Lord of Lords

Thank you Jesus I am made brand new
Ever since I put my faith in you
I will praise you with my song
As you ask me to press on  
Every trial you will see me through

I arrived back at my house out of breath
I’d been dancing and singing since I left
My spirit felt renewed
My hope restored in you
Lord, thank you for this time I won’t forget

I won’t forget the price you paid for me
‘I won’t forget that you have set me free
I won’t forget your grace
Or the mercy that you gave
Just to pardon and sanctify me

Worship

Leave a reply 
Worship the babe
Born in a manger
King of all Kings
To the world He’s a stranger

Worship the man
Showed us the Father
Taught us the way
To life ever after

Worship the Lamb
Led to the slaughter
Beaten and bruised
For His sons and His daughters

Worship the King
He rose up from the grave
Death is defeated
He’s alive again

Worship the Lion
Roaring in Victory
King of all Kings
Lord of all Lords
King of all Kings
And Lord of All Lords

I Am A Victor

Leave a reply 
The Savior now sits upon His throne
He rose from the grave and ascended above
The praise of the angels greeted Him there
The Cherubim flying around in the air

Oh, how I’d love to hear the applause
As Jesus ascended from earths humble cause
He bought our salvation and set us all free
By taking upon Him the curse meant for me

Praise, adoration and worship on High
Unto the one who has won the fight
Satan defeated when he thought he’d won
Victory given to God’s only Son

From lamb who was slaughtered to lion who reigns
He did it all our vict’ry to claim
Death is defeated, the grave has no sting
It’s time to lift up our praises and sing

Hosanna, hosanna to Jesus my Lord
Hallelujah, amen to the one I adore
Exalted and seated upon the throne
All power and authority He does now own

Forever I’ll worship and lift up His name
Because of Him my life is not the same
I am a victor because of He arose
And I’ll live forever with Jesus my Lord

Amazing Gift

Leave a reply 
I have nothing to give
Nothing to offer Him
For the life that He gave
In place of my offering

There was no earthly reason
He should die in my place
When Jesus gave up His life
And showed me His grace

CHORUS
Amazing grace, amazing love
Amazing gift for me
My God did reconcile my sin
That day He set me free

Now I look upon that cross
The price that He has paid
The tears well up inside
As I lift my voice in praise

CHORUS


BRIDGE
Oh, how amazing.  Oh, how wonderful
Is my Saviors love for me (repeat)

CHORUS

God Never Failed

When three men faced the fire
When Daniel faced the lions
When Joshua faced the walls
God never failed

When Gideon fought with hundreds
When Samson lost His long hair
When David faced Goliath
God never failed

He never failed before and He will not fail me now
In some grave situations I cannot tell you how
His mercy is enormous
His grace will always win
I know that in my weakness He’ll find me a way out

When cancer filled my blood
When pride made me to fall
When troubles overtook me
God never failed

He never failed before and He will not fail me now
In some grave situations I cannot tell you how
His mercy is enormous
His grace will always win
I know that in my weakness He’ll find me a way out

He will deliver me. He will deliver me
I know He has paid the price. He will deliver me
I’ll lift up my hands in praise.  I’ll lift up my hands in Praise
I know he will make a way.  My God will deliver me

He never failed before and He will not fail me now
In some grave situations I cannot tell you how
His mercy is enormous
His grace will always win
I know that in my weakness He’ll find me a way out

It Is Finished

I found myself kneeling before His cross 
I could not explain how I felt
Tears of deep sorrow flowed from my eyes 
Dripping down in the blood where I knelt

I looked up to see my Savior so dear
His body all beaten and red
I cried our "Dear Lord what shall I do"
And He looked down at me and said

It is finished your redemption is paid 
It is finished your sin Is erased 
Don't be sad, do not weep
Keep your heart. Keep my peace
In three days all the world will see
It is finished

I stood up and started to praise him
As He gave up a sorrowful sigh
Then His head bowed and life just left Him
I now knew my Savior had died

As I went to my home, I remembered the words
That He spoke to me from His cross 
Then I fasted and prayed for those few days
Hoping soon I'd get over this loss

Then I heard great commotion outside in the street
Someone running and yelling real loud
He's Alive the kept saying
Over and over
He's alive.  He's alive. He's alive 

It is finished the battle is over
It is finished the victory mine 
Jesus has conquered the grave and death 
It is finished and He is alive

He Reigns In Majesty

Leave a reply 
High above the mountains
High above the sea
High above all nature
He reigns in Majesty

High above the creation
High above all men
High above the heavens
He reigns for all to see

His glory fills the skies above
His glory fills my soul
His glory all around us
For all men to behold

I can’t deny His goodness
I can’t deny His grace
I can’t deny His mercy
I long to see His face

Majestic is the Lamb
Who sits upon the throne
Forever we will worship Him
Jesus Christy our Lord

The Price You Paid

Leave a reply 
When I think of the pain you bore
And all that you’ve done for me
I can’t help but kneel at the foot of the cross
And thank you for setting me free

I was lost and drifting through life
Like a ship without a sail
You found me when I was dep in distress
And you covered me with your grace

I do not deserve this great mercy
As your love hears my desperate plea
I sit here in awe that such a great God
Would take time to rescue me

So now I will sing Thank you Jesus
For the price that you paid in the cross
I will tell all the world of your goodness
And the change in my life you have caused

For I was the chiefest of sinners
Now peace and joy reign in my heart
Thank you, dear Lord, for rescuing me
By leading me straight to the cross
