Free Indeed!

“Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.” – John 8:36

No Longer Slaves

1

You unravel me with a melody
You surround me with a song
Of deliverance from my enemies
Till all my fears are gone

I’m no longer a slave to fear
I am a child of God
I’m no longer a slave to fear
I am a child of God

From my Mother’s womb
You have chosen me
Love has called my name
I’ve been born again into Your family
Your blood flows through my veins

You split the sea so I could walk right through it
My fears were drowned in perfect love
You rescued me so I could stand and sing
I am a child of God

O Come to the Altar

2

Are you hurting and broken within
Overwhelmed by the weight of your sin

Jesus is calling

Have you come to the end of yourself

Do you thirst for a drink from the well

Jesus is calling

O come to the altar

The Father’s arms are open
wide
Forgiveness was bought with

The precious blood of Jesus Christ

Leave behind your regrets and mistakes

Come today there’s no reason to wait

Jesus is calling

Bring your sorrows and trade them for joy

From the ashes a new life is born

Jesus is calling

Oh
what a Savior
Isn’t he wonderful

Sing alleluia Christ is risen

Bow down before him

For he is Lord of all

Sing alleluia Christ is risen

Bear your cross as you wait for the crown

Tell the world of the treasure you’ve found

Your Great Name

Lost are saved find their way
At the sound of Your great Name
All condemned feel no shame
At the sound of Your great Name
Ev’ry fear has no place
At the sound of Your great Name

At the sound of Your great Name

Jesus worthy is the Lamb that was slain for us
The Son of God and man
You are high and lifted up
And all the world will praise
Your great Name

All the weak find their strength
At the sound of Your great Name
Hungry souls receive grace
At the sound of Your great Name
The fatherless find their rest
At the sound of Your great Name
The sick are healed the dead are raised
At the sound of Your great Name

Redeemer my Healer Lord Almighty
Defender my Savior You are my King
(REPEAT)

How Great Is Our God

4

The splendor of the King
Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice
All the earth rejoice
He wraps Himself in light
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
And trembles at His voice

How great is our God
Sing with me
How great is our God
And all will see how great
How great is our God

And age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the End
Beginning and the End
The Godhead three in one
Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb
The Lion and the Lamb

Name above all names
Worthy of all praise
My heart will sing
How great is our God

Red Letters

5

There I was on death row
Guilty in the first degree
Son of God hanging on a hill
Hell was my destiny

The crowd was shouting crucify
Could’ve come from these lips of mine
The dirty shame was killing me
It would take a miracle to wash me clean

Then (When) I read the red letters
And the ground began to shake
The prison walls started falling
And I became a free man that day

Felt like lightning hit my veins
My dead heart began to beat
Breath of God filled my lungs
And the Holy Ghost awakened me
Yeah the Holy Ghost awakened me

For God so loved the whole wide world
Sent His only Son to die for me
Arms spread wide for the whole wide world
His arms spread wide where mine should be, Jesus changed my destiny

Thank You God for red letters
And the ground began to shake
The grace of God started falling
And I became a free man that day

I'll Fly Away

6

Some glad morning when this life is o’er
I’ll fly away
To a home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away O glory I’ll fly away
When I die hallelujah by and by
I’ll fly away

When the shadows of this life have grown
I’ll fly away
Like a bird from prison bars has flown
I’ll fly away

Just a few more weary days and then
I’ll fly away
To a land where joys shall never end
I’ll fly away

Lord I Lift Your Name On High

7

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

Run To The Father

8

I’ve carried a burden for too long on my own
I wasn’t created to bear it alone
I hear Your invitation to let it all go
I see it now I’m laying it down
And I know that I need You

I run to the Father
I fall into grace
I’m done with the hiding
No reason to wait
My heart needs (found) a surgeon
My soul needs (found) a friend
So I’ll run to the Father
Again and again
And again and again
Interlude
Oh oh oh

You saw my condition
Had a plan from the start
Your Son for redemption
The price for my heart
I don’t have a context
For that kind of love
I don’t understand
I can’t comprehend
All I know is I need You

Oh oh
Again and again
And again and again
Oh oh oh
(Again and again)

My heart has been in Your sights
Long before my first breath

Running into Your arms
Is running to life from death
I feel this rush deep in my chest
Your mercy is calling out
Just as I am You pull me in
And I know I need You now

Rescue Story

9

There I was empty handed
Crying out from the pit of my despair
There you were in the shadows
Holding out Your hand You met me there

And now where would I be without You
Where would I be Jesus

You were the voice in the desert
Calling me out in the dead of night
Fighting my battles for me
You are my rescue story
Lifted me up from the ashes
You carried my soul from death to life
Bringing me from glory to glory
You are my rescue story

You are You are
You are my rescue story
You are You are

You were writing the pages
Before I had a name
Before I needed grace oh
Singing songs of redemption
‘Cause every time I ran away
You were louder than my shame

You never gave up on me
You never gave up on me
You are my testimony oh
(REPEAT)

You never give up on me
Oh You never give up on me
Oh this is my testimony oh

You are You are
Oh You never gave up on me
Never gave up on me
You are You are
Yeah You are my rescue story

Such a marv’lous mystery yeah

When I Follow You (Gary L Hinz)

11

Each morning when I rise you call my name
I know your voice and I’ll follow you
Guide me in your way as I walk along
Help me live for you today

On those days we walk in the valley
Please lord keep me from harm
On those days we rest by cool water
That’s the time your love makes me warm

Today was really tough Lord
It was all I could do
To walk in your footsteps as I followed you
Guide me in your way as I walk along
Help me live for you today

Somedays are bright my eyes clearly see
To walk in your footsteps as you walk with me
Guide me in your way as I walk along
Help me live for you today

I never really knew how sweet it could be
Until the time when I followed you
Yes, I never really knew how sweet it could be
Until the time when I followed you

Battle Belongs

12

When all I see is the battle
You see my victory
When all I see is a mountain
You see a mountain moved
And as I walk through the shadow
Your love surrounds me
There’s nothing to fear now
For I am safe with You

So when I fight I’ll fight on my knees
With my hands lifted high
O God the battle belongs to You
And every fear I lay at Your feet
I’ll sing through the night
O God the battle belongs to You

And if You are for me
Who can be against me

For Jesus there’s nothing
Impossible for You
When all I see are the ashes
You see the beauty
When all I see is a cross
God You see the empty tomb

(An) Almighty Fortress You go before us
Nothing can stand against
The power of our God
You shine in the shadows
You win every battle
Nothing can stand against
The power of our God

O God the battle belongs to You

Shout To The Lord

13

My Jesus my Saviour
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
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

O Lord My Rock And My Redeemer

14

O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer
Greatest treasure of my longing soul
My God like You there is no other
True delight is found in You alone
Your grace a well too deep to fathom
Your love exceeds the heavens’ reach
Your truth a fount of perfect wisdom
My highest good and my unending need

O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer
Strong defender of my weary heart
My sword to fight the cruel deceiver
And my shield against his hateful darts
My song when enemies surround me
My hope when tides of sorrow rise
My joy when trials are abounding
Your faithfulness my refuge in the night

O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer
Gracious Savior of my ruined life
My guilt and cross laid on Your shoulders
In my place You suffered bled and died
You rose the grave and death are conquered
You broke my bonds of sin and shame
O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer
May all my days bring glory to Your Name

Behold Our God

Who has numbered every grain of sand
Kings and nations tremble at His voice
All creation rises to rejoice

Behold our God seated on His throne
Come let us adore Him
Behold our King nothing can compare
Come let us adore Him

Who has given counsel to the Lord
Who can question any of His words
Who can teach the One who knows all things
Who can fathom all His wondrous deeds

Who has felt the nails upon His hands
Bearing all the guilt of sinful man
God eternal humbled to the grave
Jesus Savior risen now to reign

He Is Worthy

16

None can stand before His majesty
Beautiful beyond our highest thought

We pour out our praise
It’s Your breath in our lungs
So we pour out our praise to You only

And all the earth will shout Your praise
Our hearts will cry these bones will sing
Great are You Lord
(REPEAT)

Victory In Jesus

18

I heard an old old story
How a Savior came from glory
How He gave His life on Calvary
To save a wretch like me
I heard about His groaning
Of His precious blood’s atoning
Then I repented of my sins
And won the victory

O victory in Jesus
My Savior forever
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood
He loved me ere I knew Him
And all my love is due Him
He plunged me to victory
Beneath the cleansing flood

I heard about His healing
Of His cleansing pow’r revealing
How He made the lame to walk again
And caused the blind to see
And then I cried dear Jesus
Come and heal my broken spirit
And somehow Jesus came and brought
To me the victory

I heard about a mansion
He has built for me in glory
And I heard about the streets of gold
Beyond the crystal sea
About the angels singing
And the old redemption story
And some sweet day I’ll sing up there
The song of victory

He Set Me Free

19

Once like a bird
In prison I dwelt
No freedom
From my sorrow I felt
But Jesus came
And listened to me
And glory to God
He set me free

He set me free
Yes He set me free
And He broke the bonds
Of prison for me
I’m glory bound
My Jesus to see
For glory to God
He set me free

Now I am climbing
Higher each day
Darkness of night
Has drifted away
My feet are planted
On higher ground
And glory to God
I’m homeward bound

Good-bye to sin
And things that confound
Naught of the world
Shall turn me around
Daily I’m working
I’m praying too
And glory to God
I’m going thru

Shine Jesus Shine

20

Lord the light of Your love is shining
In the midst of the darkness shining
Jesus Light of the world shine upon us
Set us free by the truth You now bring us
Shine on me shine on me
Shine Jesus shine
Fill this land
With the Father’s glory
Blaze Spirit blaze
Set our hearts on fire
Flow river flow
Flood the nations
With grace and mercy
Send forth Your word Lord
And let there be light
Lord I come to Your awesome presence
From the shadows into Your radiance
By the blood I may enter Your brightness
Search me try me consume all my darkness
Shine on me shine on me

Death Was Arrested

21

Alone in my sorrow and dead in my sin
Lost without hope with no place to begin
Your love made a way to let mercy come in
When death was arrested and my life began

Ash was redeemed only beauty remains
My orphan heart was given a name
My mourning grew quiet my feet rose to dance
When death was arrested and my life began

Oh Your grace so free washes over me
You have made me new now life begins with You
It’s Your endless love pouring down on us
You have made us new now life begins with You

Released from my chains I’m a pris’ner no more
My shame was a ransom He faithfully bore
He cancelled my debt and He called me His friend
When death was arrested and my life began

Our Savior displayed on a criminal’s cross
Darkness rejoiced as though Heaven had lost
But then Jesus arose with our freedom in hand
That’s when death was arrested and my life began

Oh we’re free free forever we’re free
Come join the song of all the redeemed
Yes we’re free free forever amen
When death was arrested and my life began

Who You Say I Am

22

Who am I that the highest King
Would welcome me
I was lost but He brought me in
Oh His love for me
Oh His love for me

Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I’m a child of God
Yes I am

Free at last
He has ransomed me
His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin
Jesus died for me
Yes He died for me

In my Father’s house
There’s a place for me
I’m a child of God
Yes I am

I am chosen not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me not against me
I am who You say I am

(Oh) (Yes) I am who You say I am

Nobody

23

Why You ever chose me
Has always been a mystery
All my life I’ve been told I belong
At the end of the line
With all the other Not-Quites
With all the Never-Get-It-Rights
But it turns out they’re the ones
You were looking for
All this time

(‘Cause) I’m just a nobody
Tryin’ to tell everybody
Well all about Somebody
Who saved my soul
Ever since You rescued me
You gave my heart a song to sing
I’m living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I’m living for the world to see nobody but Jesus

Well Moses had stage fright
And David brought a rock to a sword fight
You picked twelve outsiders nobody would’ve chosen
And You changed the world
Well the moral of the story is
Everybody’s got a purpose
So when I hear that devil start talking to me saying
Who do you think you are
I say

So let me go down down down in history
As another blood-bought
Faithful member of the family
And if they all forget my name
Well that’s fine with me
I’m living for the world to see nobody but Jesus
I’m living for the world to see nobody but Jesus

The Old Rugged Cross

24

On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
The emblem of suff’ring and shame
And I love that old cross where the dearest and best
For a world of lost sinners was slain

So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it some day for a crown

O the old rugged cross so despised by the world
Has a wondrous attraction for me
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary

In the old rugged cross stained with blood so divine
A wondrous beauty I see
For ’twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died
To pardon and sanctify me

To the old rugged cross I will ever be true
Its shame and reproach gladly bear
Then He’ll call me some day to my home far away
Where His glory forever I’ll share

Jesus Lead On

25

This is my cry
This is my song
You are my guiding light
When the way is unknown
And when these sunny skies
Turn shades of gray
I’ll stay close by Your side
As You lead the way

Jesus lead on I will follow
Jesus lead on
Let Your love light the way
Jesus lead on I will follow
Jesus lead on

Hear now this cry
Hear now this song
You are the guiding light
For this journey I’m on
And when my vision is clouded
By the wind and the rain
I’ll stay close by Your side
As You lead the way

Lead me on
Lead me on
Lead me on
I will follow

Resurrecting

26

The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now
The Savior knelt to wash our feet
Now at his feet we bow

The one who wore our sin and shame
Now robed in majesty
The radiance of perfect love
Now shines for all to see

Your name
Your name
Is victory
All praise
Will rise
To Christ our king

The fear that held us now gives way
To him who is our peace
His final breath upon the cross
Is now alive in me

By your spirit I will rise
From the ashes of defeat
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
In your name I come alive
To declare your victory
The resurrected king
Is resurrecting me
The tomb where soldiers watched in vain
Was borrowed for three days
His body there would not remain
Our God has robbed the grave
Our God has robbed the grave

Rise Up (Lazarus)

27

In the dark and all alone
Growing comfortable
Are you too scared to move
And walk out of this tomb
Buried underneath the lies that you believed
Safe and sound stuck in the ground
Too lost to be found
You’re just asleep
And it’s time to leave
Come on and rise up
Take a breath you’re alive now
Can’t you hear the voice of Jesus calling us
Out from the grave like Lazarus
You’re brand new
The power of death couldn’t hold you
Can’t you hear the voice of Jesus calling us
Out of the grave like Lazarus
Rise up rise up rise up
Out from the grave like Lazarus
When he said your name
The thing that filled your veins
Was more than blood
It’s the kind of love that washes sin away
Now the door is open wide
And the stone’s been rolled aside
The old is gone the light has come so
He’s calling us to walk out of the dark
He’s giving us new resurrected hearts
He’s calling us to walk out of the dark
He’s giving us new resurrected hearts

In Jesus Name (God Of Possible)

28

I speak the name of Jesus over you
In your hurting in your sorrow
I will ask my God to move
I speak the name ’cause it’s all that I can do
In desperation I’ll seek heaven
And pray this for you

I pray for your healing
That circumstances would change
I pray that the fear inside would flee
In Jesus name
I pray that a breakthrough would happen today
I pray miracles over your life in Jesus name
In Jesus name

I speak the name of all authority
Declaring blessings every promise
He is faithful to keep
I speak the name no grave could ever hold
He is greater He is stronger
He’s the God of possible

Oh come believe it come receive it
Oh the power of His Spirit is now forever yours
Come believe it come receive it
In the mighty name of Jesus all things are possible

I pray for revival
For restoration of faith
I pray that the dead will come alive
In Jesus name
In Jesus name

Goodness Of God

29

I love You Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
I will sing of the goodness of God

All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a father
I’ve known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God

Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me

Sanctuary

30

Lord prepare me to be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
With thanksgiving, I’ll be a living
Sanctuary for you

It is you, Lord who came to save
The heart and soul of every man
It is you Lord who knows my weakness
Who gives me strength, with thine own hand

Lead me on Lord from temptation
Purify me from withing
Fill my heart with your holy spirit
Take away all my sin

I Speak Jesus

31

I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
Over ev’ry heart and ev’ry mind
‘Cause I know there is peace within Your presence
I speak Jesus

I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
‘Til ev’ry dark addiction starts to break
Declaring there is hope and there is freedom
I speak Jesus

(‘Cause) Your Name is power
Your Name is healing
Your Name is life
Break ev’ry stronghold
Shine through the shadows
Burn like a fire

I just want to speak the Name of Jesus
Over fear and all anxiety
To ev’ry soul held captive by depression
I speak Jesus

Shout Jesus from the mountains
Jesus in the streets
Jesus in the darkness over ev’ry enemy
Jesus for my fam’ly
I speak the holy Name Jesus

Are You Washed In The Blood

32

Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Are you washed in the blood
In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb
Are your garments spotless are they white as snow
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Do you rest each moment in the Crucified
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white
Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb
Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb
Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin
And be washed in the blood of the Lamb
There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean
O be washed in the blood of the Lamb

Awesome God

33

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom pow’r and love
Our God is an awesome God

When He rolls up His sleeves
He ain’t just puttin’ on the ritz
Our God is an awesome God
There is thunder in His footsteps
And lightning in His fists
Our God is an awesome God
And the Lord wasn’t joking
When He kicked ’em out of Eden
It wasn’t for no reason
That He shed His blood
His return is very close
And so you’d better be believin’
That our God is an awesome God

When the sky was starless
In the void of the night
Our God is an awesome God
He spoke into the darkness
And created the light
Our God is an awesome God
Judgment and wrath
He poured out on Sodom
Mercy and grace
He gave us at the cross
I hope that we have not
Too quickly forgotten
That our God is an awesome God

How Great Thou Art

34

O Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works
Thy hands have made
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy pow’r thru’out
The universe displayed
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin
When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And take me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow
In humble adoration
And there proclaim
My God how great Thou art

Because He Lives

35

God sent His Son they called Him Jesus
He came to love heal and forgive
He bled and died to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove
My Savior lives
Because He lives I can face tomorrow
Because He lives all fear is gone
Because I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He lives
How sweet to hold our newborn baby
And feel the pride and joy he gives
But greater still the calm assurance
This child can face uncertain days
Because Christ lives

And then one day I’ll cross that river
I’ll fight life’s final war with pain
And then as death gives way to vict’ry
I’ll see the lights of glory
And I’ll know He reigns

The Stand

36

You stood before creation
Eternity in Your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul now to stand
You stood before my failure
And carried the cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand
So what can I say
And what can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So I’ll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
My life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand
So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours

Chain Breaker

37

If you’ve been walking the same old road
For miles and miles
If you’ve been hearing the same old voice
Tell the same old lies
If you’re trying to fill the same old holes inside
There’s a better life
There’s a better life

If you’ve got pain He’s a pain taker
If you feel lost He’s a way maker
If you need freedom or saving
He’s a prison shaking Savior
If you got chains He’s a chain breaker

We’ve all searched for the light of day
In the dead of night
We’ve all found ourselves worn out
From the same old fight
We’ve all run to things we know just ain’t right
When there’s a better life
There’s a better life

If you believe it
If you receive it
If you can feel it
Somebody testify

Oh if you need freedom or saving
He’s a prison shaking Savior
If you got chains well He’s a chain breaker

 

Truth Be Told

38

Lie number one
You’re supposed to have it all together
And when they ask how you’re doing
Just smile and tell them
Never better
Lie number two
Everybody’s life is perfect except yours
So keep your messes and your wounds
Your secrets safe with you behind closed doors
Truth be told
The truth is rarely told

I say I’m fine yeah I’m fine oh I’m fine
Hey I’m fine but I’m not
I’m broken
And when it’s out of control
I say it’s under control but it’s not
And you know it
I don’t know why it’s so hard to admit it
When being honest is the only way to fix it
There’s no failure no fall
There’s no sin you don’t already know (yeah I know)
(So let the truth be told)

There’s a sign on the door
Says come as you are but I doubt it
‘Cause if we lived like that was true
Every Sunday morning pew would be crowded
But didn’t you say church should
Look more like a hospital
A safe place for the sick
The sinner and the scarred and the prodigals
Just like me
Truth be told
The truth is rarely told
Am I the only one who says

Can I really stand here unashamed
Knowing that your love for me won’t change
Oh God if that’s really true
Then let the truth be told
There’s no failure no fall
There’s no sin you don’t already know
So let the truth be told

Graves Into Gardens

39

I searched the world but it couldn’t fill me
Man’s empty praise and treasures that fade
Are never enough
Then You came along and put me back together
And every desire is now satisfied here in Your love

Oh there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You

I’m not afraid to show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord You’ve seen them all
And You still call me friend
‘Cause the God of the mountain
Is the God of the valley
There’s not a place
Your mercy and grace won’t find me again

You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can

You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can

Revival

40

Your strength it found me at my weakest
Your grace poured out in my despair
When I feel lifeless tired burned out and defeated
Your perfect love will find me there
You called my name You made all things new
Oh I was dead but look at me now
I found revival in You
You gave me life ’cause that’s what You do
Oh I was dead but look at me now
I found revival in You
Wild dreams were breathed into existence
My broken heart began to beat
There’s no more fear and doubt
My bitter disappointments
Became my greatest victory

It’s all because of You
All because of You
I am alive in Jesus I am alive

How Can You Not

41

I see the sunrise in the morning
And a million stars at night
I hear the birds they can’t stop singing hallelujah
I see His goodness when I fall down
And His grace that picks me up
Every day I can’t stop singing hallelujah

How can you not see God
In every little thing in every little moment
How can you not feel loved
(How can you not how can you not)
He’s in the middle of
Every little thing and every little moment
How can you not see God
How can you not how can you not

I see the sunset and I wonder
If You paint it just for me
Nobody else could make a world so beautiful
How could I question His love when
It’s everywhere I go
Wherever I look I find another miracle

Everything is evidence
Showing me that You exist
All creation’s singing hallelujah

10,000 Reasons (Bless The Lord)

42

Bless the Lord O my soul O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before O my soul
I’ll worship Your holy name

The sun comes up it’s a new day dawning
It’s time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes

You’re rich in love and You’re slow to anger
Your name is great and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years and then forevermore

Worship Your holy name
Lord I’ll worship Your holy name

Sing like never before O my soul
I’ll worship Your holy name
Worship Your holy name
Worship Your holy name

All My Hope

43

I’ve been held by the Savior
I’ve felt fire from above
I’ve been down to the river
I ain’t the same a prodigal returned
All my hope is in Jesus
Thank God that yesterday’s gone
(Yes) All my sins are forgiven
(Oh I’ve) I’ve been washed by the blood
(Come on and sing)

I’m no stranger to prison
I’ve worn shackles and chains
But I’ve been freed and forgiven
And I’m not going back I’ll never be the same
That’s why I sing

There’s a kind of thing that just breaks a man
Break him down to his knees
God I’ve been broken more than a time or two
Yes Lord then He picked me up and showed me
What it means to be a man
Come on and sing

Lord I Need You

44

Lord I come I confess
Bowing here I find my rest
And without You I fall apart
You’re the one that guides my heart

Lord I need You oh I need You
Ev’ry hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

Where sin runs deep Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me
Where You are Lord I am free
Holiness is Christ in me

So teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on You
Jesus You’re my hope and stay
And when I cannot stand I’ll fall on You
Jesus You’re my hope and stay

Lord I need You oh I need You
Ev’ry hour I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You
My one defense my righteousness
Oh God how I need You

When We Fall Apart

45

You were forty three when you got the news
Life will be changing nothing we can do
The clock is ticking now
All I can think about
Is knowing I have to move on without you somehow
And I just can’t believe
That you’re the one whose keeping it together
As you hold my hand and say

It’s ok to cry
It’s ok to fall apart
You don’t have to try
To be strong when you are not
And it may take some time
To make sense of all your thoughts
But don’t ever fight your tears
‘Cause there is freedom in every drop
Sometimes the only way to heal a broken heart
Is when we fall apart

You ask me to sing
Some songs that I wrote
But I can barely speak
Can barely play a note
All my tears rush in
Falling on my strings
And make the sound of these
Progressions have a different ring
And I hate to say goodbye
Knowing this will be the last time we’re together
As you close your eyes and say

And you’ve got the gift of mercy
Don’t ever think it’s strange
Not a curse
But it is a blessing to feel other people’s pain
And always love without condition
And trust with all your heart
There’s healing in the story of your scars

Well it’s been awhile
Since you’ve been gone
Sometimes I still catch myself
Trying to call your phone
All the hopes and dreams we used to talk about
They’re still alive in me
And I just hope I make you proud
Now I’m your legacy
And it’s your love still holding me together
And I still hear you say

Sometimes the only way to heal a broken heart
Is when we fall apart

Hymn Of Heaven

46

How I long to breathe the air of Heaven
Where pain is gone and mercy fills the streets
To look upon the one who bled to save me
And walk with Him for all eternity

There will be a day
When all will bow before Him
There will be a day
When death will be no more
Standing face to face
With He who died and rose again
Holy holy is the Lord

And ev’ry prayer we prayed in desperation
The songs of faith
We sang through doubt and fear
In the end we’ll see that it was worth it
When He returns to wipe away our tears

And on that day we join the resurrection
And stand beside the heroes of the faith
With one voice a thousand generations
Sing worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Forever He shall reign

So let it be today
We shout the hymn of Heaven
With angels and the Saints
We raise a mighty roar
Glory to our God
Who gave us life beyond the grave
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord
Holy holy is the Lord

Lift My Life Up

47

You brought me this far
So why would I question You now
You have provided
So why would I start to doubt
I’ve never been stranded abandoned
Or left here to fight alone
So I’m giving You control
(Take my life) I lift my life lift my life up
I give it all in surrender (Take my heart)
I lift my heart lift my heart up
You can have it forever
All my dreams all my plans
Lord I leave it in Your hands
I lift my life lift my life up

Have Your way in me
Have Your way in me

If peace is a river
Then let it sweep over me
If I’m under fire
I know it’s refining me
When I hear You calling out
I’ll follow now
Wherever the road may go
I know You’re leading me home

Take my life and let it be all for You
Take my life and let it be all for You
I lift my life lift my life up
I give it all in surrender
I lift my heart lift my heart up

Take my life and let it be
All for You and for Your glory
Take my life and let it be
All for You Lord

Take my life and let it be all for You

Yes He Can

48

Sometimes I wonder is He faithful
Does He see me in my trouble does He understand
Sometimes I question if He’s able
Can He rescue can He save me again and again
But when I look back
Did He move every mountain
Did He part every sea
Yes He did so yes He can
Did He defeat the darkness
Did He deliver me
Yes He did so yes He can
(Yes He did so yes He can)

‘Cause sometimes those voices try to tell me
I’m forgotten and I’ve fallen too far from His hands
But I know what kind of God He is
And I’m trusting in His promises
I’m believing and I’m singing
Yes He can

‘Cause I’ve seen too much now I can’t deny
He’s come through every single time
From the beginning until the end
He did He will he can

Yes He did yes He can

I'm So Blessed

Trouble knocking at my door today

On my best day I’m a child of God
On my worst day I’m a child of God

Hope looks all but gone
But when I count the ways You’re good to me
You got me counting all day long

I’m so blessed hallelujah I’m blessed
No it doesn’t matter about the rest
If I got You Lord hallelujah I’m blessed

The Commission

50

See my hands look at my feet
It’s okay if it’s hard to believe
I have faith you will do greater things
It’s my time to go but before I leave

Go tell the world about me
I was dead but now I live
I’ve gotta go now for a little while
But goodbye is not the (end)

Don’t forget the things that I taught you
I conquered death and I hold the keys
Where I go you will go too someday
But there’s much to do here before you leave

End of the journey the end of the road
My spirit is with you wherever you go
You have a purpose and I have a plan
I’ll make you this promise
I’ll come back again but until then

Go tell the world about me
For I was dead but now I live
Oh I’ve gotta go now for a little while aye
But goodbye is not the end
(Go tell the world) Go tell them about me
(Go tell the world) I’ve gotta go
Go tell the world) For a little while
But goodbye is not the end
