Lord I Lift Your Name on High

Verse

Lord, I lift Your Name on high,

Lord, I love to sing Your praises;

I'm so glad You're in my life,

I'm so glad You Came to save us!

You came from Heaven to earth to show the way,

From the earth to the cross my debt to pay;

From the cross to the grave,

From the grave to the sky;

Lord, I lift Your Name on high!

Shout To The Lord

Verse

My Jesus, my Savior, Lord there is none like You;

All of my days, I want to praise, the wonders of Your mighty love.

My comfort, my shelter, tower of refuge and strength;

Let every breath, all that I am, never cease to worship You.

Chorus

Shout to the Lord all the earth let us sing,

Power and majesty praise to the King,

Mountains bow down and the seas will roar,

At the sound of Your name;

I sing for joy at the work of Your hands,

Forever I'll love You forever I'll stand,

Nothing compares to the promise I have in You!

It Is Well with My Soul

Verse 1

When peace like a river attendeth my way,

When sorrows like sea billows roll;

Whatever my lot Thou hast taught me to say,

‘It is well with my soul.’

Verse 2

Tho’ Satan should buffet tho’ trials should come,

Let this blest assurance control,

That Christ has regarded my helpless estate,

And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

Verse 3

My sin--oh, the bliss of this glorious tho’t!

My sin, not in part but the whole;

Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more,

Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul!

Verse 4

And, Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight,

The clouds be rolled back as a scroll;

The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend,

‘Even so,’ it is well with my soul.

Chorus

It is well (it is well) with my soul (with my soul),

It is well, it is well with my soul!

In Need

Verse

In need of grace, in need of love,

In need of mercy raining down from high above;

In need of strength, in need of peace.

In need of things only You can give to me.

In need of Christ the perfect lamb,

My refuge strong the great I Am;

This is my song, my humble plea,

I am your child I am in need.

You Are Merciful To Me

Verse

Every day my disobedience grieves Your loving heart;

But then redeeming love breaks through,

And causes me to worship You...

You are merciful to me,

You are merciful to me my Lord! (repeat)

Redeemer, Savior, Healer, and Friend,

Every day, renew my ways, fill me with love that never ends...

The Love Of God

Verse 1

The love of God is greater far,

Than tongue or pen can ever tell,

It goes beyond the highest star

And reaches to the lowest hell;

The guilty pair, bowed down with care,

God gave His Son to win;

His erring child He reconciled,

And pardoned from his sin.

Verse 2

When years of time shall pass away,

And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall;

When men, who here refuse to pray,

On rocks and hills and mountains call;

God's love so sure shall still endure,

All measureless and strong;

Redeeming grace to Adam's race,

The saints' and angels' song.

Verse 3

Could we with ink the ocean fill,

And were the skies of parchment made;

Were ev'ry stalk on earth a quill,

And ev'ry man a scribe by trade;

To write the love of God above,

Would drain the ocean dry;

Nor could the scroll contain the whole,

Tho stretched from sky to sky.

Chorus

O love of God, how rich and pure!

How measureless and strong!

It shall forevermore endure,

The saints' and angels' song.

You Are My King (Amazing Love)

Verse

I'm forgiven, because You were forsaken,

I'm accepted, You were condemned;

I'm alive and well Your Spirit is within me

Because You died and rose again!

Chorus

Amazing love how can it be,

That You my King would die for me?

Amazing love I know it's true,

And it's my joy to honor you...

In all I do, I honor You.

Amazing love how can it be,

That You my King would die for me?

Amazing love I know it's true,

and it's my joy to honor you...

Who on earth could comfort me and love me like You do?

Who could ever be more faithful, true?

I will trust in You, Lord I will trust in You, my God.

The Heart Of Worship

Verse 1

When the music fades,

All is stripped away,

And I simply come;

Longing just to bring,

Something that's of worth,

That will bless Your heart.

I'll bring You more than a song,

For a song in itself,

Is not what You have required;

You search much deeper within,

Through the way things appear,

You're looking into my heart.

Verse 2

King of endless worth,

No one could express,

How much You deserve;

Though I'm weak and poor,

All I have is Yours,

Ev'ry single breath.

I'll bring You more than a song,

For a song in itself,

Is not what You have required;

You search much deeper within,

Through the way things appear,

You're looking into my heart.

Chorus

I'm coming back to the heart of worship,

And it's all about You, it's all about You, Jesus;

I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it,

When it's all about You, it's all about You, Jesus.

Author: Matt Redman

As The Deer

Verse 1

As the deer panteth for the water,

So my soul longeth after Thee;

You alone are my heart's desire,

And I long to worship Thee.

Verse 2

You're my friend and You are my brother,

Even though You are my King;

I want You more than any other,

So much more than anything.

Verse 3

I want You more than gold or silver,

Only You can satisfy;

You alone are the real joy giver,

And the apple of my eye.

Chorus

You alone are my strength, my shield,

To You alone may my spirit yield;

You alone are my heart's desire,

And I long to worship Thee.

Author: Nystrom, Martin J.

Oh Lord You're Beautiful

Verse 1

Oh Lord You're beautiful,

Your face is all I seek;

For when Your eyes are on this child,

Your grace abounds to me.

Oh Lord please light the fire,

That once burned bright and clear;

Replace the lamp of my first love,

That burned with holy fear.

Author: Green, Keith

Trust

Verse 1

You have given the honor of suff’ring for you,

You’ve chosen refining for me to go through;

You’ve led down a dark, lonely path in the night,

But Your tender mercies have been my delight.

Verse 2

You have given to me and You’ve taken away,

Blessing and honor I give to Your name;

I’ll fall at Your feet in worship and praise,

For You have been good every step of the way.

Chorus

I don’t understand, I can’t trace Your hand,

But I know You’re still in control;

When I cannot see where You’re leading me,

I’ll just take the next step You show.

In the light of the face of Jesus,

I’ll find the light for my way;

So I’ll seek You, God, not an answer,

Then I’ll trust you and obey.

Ending

It is well, with my soul,

It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Above All

Verse 1

Above all powers, above all kings,

Above all nature and all created things;

Above all wisdom and all the ways of man,

You were here before the world began.

Verse 2

Above all kingdoms, above all thrones,

Above all wonders the world has ever known;

Above all wealth and treasure of the earth,

There's no way to measure what You're worth.

Chorus

Crucified and laid behind a stone,

You lived to die rejected and alone;

Like a rose trampled on the ground,

You took the fall and thought of me;

Above all.

Oh, The Bitter Pain And Sorrow

Verse 1

Oh, the bitter pain and sorrow that a time could ever be,

When I proudly said to Jesus, all of self and none of Thee;

All of self and none of Thee, all of self and none of Thee,

When I proudly said to Jesus, all of self and none of Thee.

Verse 2

Yet He found me I beheld Him bleeding on the accursed tree,

And my selfish heart said faintly some of self and some of Thee;

Some of self and some of Thee, some of self and some of Thee,

And my selfish heart said faintly some of self and some of Thee

Verse 3

Day by day His tender mercies healing helping full and free,

Brought me lower while I whispered less of self and more of Thee;

Less of self and more of Thee, less of self and more of Thee,

Brought me lower while I whispered less of self and more of Thee

Verse 4

Higher than the highest heavens, deeper than the deepest sea,

Lord thy love at last had conquered none of self and all of Thee;

None of self and all of Thee, none of self and all of Thee,

Lord thy love at last had conquered none of self and all of Thee.

Give Us Clean Hands

Verse

We bow our hearts, we bend our knees,

Spirit come fill our lives;

We turn our eyes, from evil things,

Lord we cast down our idols.

Chorus

Give us clean hands, give us pure hearts,

Let us not lift our souls to another;

Give us clean hands, give us pure hearts,

Let us not lift our souls to another.

O God let us be a generation that seeks,

That seeks your face, O God of Jacob!

O God let us be a generation that seeks,

That seeks your face, O God of Jacob!

Fill this place with songs again;

Of our God who reigns on high,

By His grace again we'll fly.

Author: Smith, Martin

Higher Powers

Romans 15:1-5 “Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? Do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be subject not only for wrath, but also for conscience’ sake.”

This song is a song that God gave to me from October of 2002 till May of 2003. It comes straight from my heart. These are the themes I would play when I was in my lowest times and on those mountain tops that God brings. The biggest lesson God had to teach me was submission to authority and these were the verses He used. I would quote them when I wanted to buck authority and God gave me grace to learn submission. This song ends exulting in my God and His victory over my flesh.

Thank You Lord

Verse

For all that You've done I will thank You,

For all that You're going to do;

For all that You've promised and all that You are,

Is all that has carried me through.

Jesus, I thank You.

Chorus

And I thank You, thank You Lord.

Thank You for loving and setting me free,

Thank You for giving Your life just for me;

How I thank You, Jesus, I thank You,

Gratefully thank You, thank You!
