High Above

Let’s all rejoice
And lift our voice
The King is on the throne
He Reigns on high
His glory shines
And He calls us His own.
Lift up His name
Shout out His praise
He rules in majesty
He’s high above
All other gods
And sets his heart on me
He sends His mercy to my side
Each time I trip and fall
Such mercy is too much for me
I don’t deserve it all
His grace pours blessing in my life
That overwhelms my soul
I can’t contain the gratitude
That He has made me whole
But greatest of the gifts He shows
Is His great love for me
He gave His life upon a cross
That day at Calvary
This love is so amazing
So wonderful and strong
That every moment I’m awake
I sing my worship song
Let’s all rejoice
And lift our voice
The King is on the throne
He Reigns on high
His glory shines
And He calls us His own.
Lift up His name
Shout out His praise
He rules in majesty
He’s high above
All other gods
And sets his heart on me

Let The Church Rise

Lord, I come to you this morning
With a very heavy heart
I need your Spirits comfort
But I’m not sure where to start
So many things are going on
Throughout our troubled land
I need to just come talk to you
And pray you’ll understand
So many people died
In a senseless tragedy
One man filled with hate
Brings terror to our streets
We cannot understand this rage
Or what would make it stop
The only thing I know to do is pray
So I will pray.
Two candidates are running
For the leader of our land
The greatest country in the world
Is going to take a stand
Why are these two left
Who have so many flaws
I know my duty is to choose
So the only thing I know to do is pray
So I will pray.
I see the moral fabric
Of our nation running wild
Men and women doing things
That should not be allowed
Children facing chaos
In the bathrooms of their school
I’m having trouble with it all
So the only thing I know to do is pray
So I will pray
I will humble myself before you, Lord
Pray with all my heart and soul
Seek your face with every breath I take
And turn from all my wicked ways
I will humble myself before you, Lord
Pray with all my heart and soul
Seek your face with every breath I take
And turn from all my wicked ways
For you tell me in your word
If I do these things
You will hear my prayer
And forgive our sins
And heal our land.
Let the church rise
Let the church rise
Let the church rise
On their knees
And pray

You Promise

Where else would I go Lord?

Where else can I find

All the promises you’ve given

Coming through in my life?

 

You promise refuge from the storm

A hiding place for my soul

So I will not be fearful

When the days grow cold

 

You promise a fortress around me

To strengthen me when I am weak

The walls of your mercy rise mighty

To keep out the enemy

 

You promise me health and deliverance

From all that has gone before

I now longer walk in my past life

I can walk in your victory, lord

 

You promise me peace and joy

In a world where these are lost

You fill me with both of these virtues

And promise there won’t be a cost

 

You promise me salvation

Redemption from my sin

A new life birthed within me

Your Holy Spirt within

 

But more than all these things above

You promise me your steadfast love

It’s crowned with grace and mercy sweet

I will bow before your feet

For you are worthy of my praise

For all the wonder of your name

I’ll lift you high in all my days

And praise you for your promises

He Reigns

I saw the Lord
Seated on the throne
All the earth He owns
He Reigns
I heard His voice
Echoing through time
Every word divine
He Reigns
He spoke to me
Words of life and grace
I lift up my praise
He Reigns
He heard my cry
Answered every prayer
He is always there
He Reigns
He healed my pain
By His sacrifice
He gave me new life
He Reigns
He rose again
From death He is alive
To give eternal life
He Reigns
He will return
To call His children home
And make us all His own
He Reigns
I will sing with highest praise
Jesus is His mighty name
All the earth sings out His praise
He Reigns
Jesus who has set us free
Jesus who brings victory
Jesus who always loves me
He Reigns

His Matchless Name

Save me Lord and I will be saved

Heal me Lord, and I will be healed

For you are my Savior, refuge and strength

There is nothing too hard for thee

 

Deliver me Lord, and I will be free

Redeem me Lord, and my debt will be paid

For you are my rock and my hiding place

In you I will always be safe

 

Lift me up Lord, and I will have joy

Ease my sorrow Lord, and I will I have peace

For you give me hope for the future

And you’ll walk with me eternally

 

How can I ignore your mercy?

It is right with me every day

How can I not see your grace?

It protects me all the way.

 

So I will lift my voice in song

I will lift the highest praise

You alone are worthy Lord

Jesus is the only name

 

That name brings healing at its sound

Salvation lives in Jesus name

Deliverance comes where He abounds

Redemption from his name proclaimed

 

Joy and Peace come when I praise

The mighty mention of His name

My hope is resting as I say

His wonderful and matchless name

 

The name I say is Jesus

The loveliest of names

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

He is all my praise

Lord of My Heart

Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
You rescued me
Out of the dark
You gave your life
So that I could be free
When you died sinless
On Calvary’s tree
Bought my salvation
A debt that I owed
Your love has paid
So I could have hope
Rose from the grave
Up to heavens door
Where I will dwell
Forever more
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my heart
I know that you
Will never depart
You promised me
You’d stay by my side
From this very day
‘Til the day that I die
Then when I rise
To my heavenly home
I’ll spend eternity
Never alone
Wonderful Jesus
Lord of my Heart
I’ll worship you
Until I depart
Then when I land
On my mansion above
I’ll praise you always
For your tender love

What A Change

I was sure

No one could hear my cry

No one could feel my hurt

No one could truly love me

 

Then I found

Jesus would hear my prayer

Jesus would heal my pain

Jesus would always love me

 

I knelt down

And prayed through in tears

And prayed for His peace

And prayed He would save me

 

He came in

And filled up my soul

And filled me with joy

And filled the void in my heart

 

Now I know

His love has no end

His love is by grace

His love shows His mercy

 

What a change He brought

To my longing heart

What a Savior He is to me

Because He has set me free

 

He’s all that I ever sought

To fill up my poor dead heart

And He’ll do the same for you

If you’ll only ask Him to

Now I Know

I didn’t know how much He loved me
Didn’t know how much He cared
When I used to curse and mock His name
I didn’t realize His passion
To fellowship with me
I just would not take the time to change
Then I heard the ancient story
Of a King who came to die
And I bowed down on my knees and cried
Now I know
You love me so
You gave your life
So I could thrive
I’m aware
How much you care
I give my all
To heed your call
Now I know
If you just cannot see His mercy
‘Cause your life is such a mess
Let me tell you I have felt the same way
I was living in a frenzy
I was lost in misery
And I didn’t understand His grace
But one day He whispered softly
My son, I love you so
If you listen He will call to you
Don’t you know
I love you so
I gave my life
So you could thrive
Be aware
How much I care
Give your all
To heed my call
Don’t you know
It doesn’t take a genius
To see His great love
It only takes a moment
To open up your heart
He will bring His mercy
Into your life today
If you’ll just take the time
To say
Now I know
You love me so
You gave your life
So I could thrive
I’m aware
How much you care
I give my all
To heed your call
Now I know

Hold Me Fast

I’m holding onto Jesus

And He’s holding onto me

And I’m never going to let Him go

Because I know He’ll always

Bring out the best in me

And I know He’ll always love me so

 

Sometimes I can get lazy

My path can go astray

I find myself a long way from His side

But every time I wander

He helps me find my way

And He’s still there with arms held open wide

 

Sometimes my faith can waiver

And my fear can rise up strong

And the doubt inside can cause me some alarm

But every time I stumble

He comes right to my aid

And gathers me into His loving arms

 

But when I am the strongest

And my faith is waxing strong

There’s nothing like His presence in my life

I sing about His glory

I praise Him endlessly

And I worship Him for Hs great sacrifice

 

His promises are true

His love will never fail

His faith in me grows stronger every day

So I will hold on fast

To the love that He bestows

And He will hold me fast all the way

Near To You

I want to walk with you
For miles and miles
Everyday, Lord
To be in your presence
And feel your sweet touch
I want to stay with you
Step by step
Never leave your side
Constantly abide
In your love
Everyday
I want to talk with you
For hours and hours
Everyday, Lord
To soak in your wisdom
And learn how to love
I want to hear your voice
Word by word
Never close my ears
Listen all the years
To your love
Everyday
Being with you
And hearing your voice
Is my hearts desire
My only choice
Every minute
I spend with you
Just draws me closer
To your side
Near to you
Near to you
Knowing your touch
Hearing your voice
Near to you
By your side
That’s where I’ll abide.
