Bless, O my soul, the living God
Call home thy thoughts that rove abroad
Let all the powers within me join
In work and worship so divine,
In work and worship so divine.
Chorus:
To you alone I lift my soul
And make my home where’er you go
Your praise the only praise I’ll sing
This is my finest offering
This is my finest offering
Bless, O my soul, the God of grace
His favors claim thy highest praise
Why should the wonders He hath wrought
Be lost in silence and forgot?
Be lost in silence and forgot?
Bridge:
’Tis He, my soul, that sent His Son to die
For all the crimes which thou hast done.
Let the whole earth His power confess
In work and worship so divine.

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise, give me Jesus
Chorus:
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus,
You can have all this world,
But give me Jesus
When I am alone
When I am alone
When I am alone, give me Jesus
When I come to die
When I come to die
When I come to die, give me Jesus

Mighty Fortress

|

|
When darkness seems darker than
The brightest of lights
The ground that you walk upon won’t stop quaking
There’s still a light that shines
A rock that won’t move
A hope that is calling you and me, yeah
Chorus:
A mighty fortress is our God
We will not be shaken
The righteous will run to you
We will not be moved
We look past our circumstance
We hold to the truth
Your throne is high above any mountain
Your kingdom is coming now
As your will is done
And your power is changing everything, yeah
Yesterday and today and forever your strength will remain
Kings of the earth pass away, but you’re eternal

I Surrender Everything
04:20

|

|
Humble King,
You came to Earth an offering
Of life for all
Savior King,
You bought me with your suffering
Cleansed me with your blood
Chorus:
I surrender everything
My life, my burdens, and my dreams
Jesus, you're my King
Here I stand
With just my broken heart in hands
Lifted up to you
Oh, light that leads
The way before my stumbling feet
Lead me on
For as it is written,
"The LORD will fight for you.
You need only to be (to be) still."
Oh, as it is written,
"The LORD will fight for you.
You need only to be (to be) still."
Here I stand
With just my broken heart in hands
Lifted up to you.

To Trust Him More
03:37
|
|
||
|
I will not worry for food or drink
And I will not want for clothes
For my Father dresses the lilies,
And my every need he knows
Not a hair shall fall down from my head
Not a sparrow from the sky
Without notice notice the Father
I am precious in his eyes
Chorus:
Oh, for the grace to trust him more
Through the calm and the stormy seas
I surrender my life to the Fathers hands
Who has sacrificed for me
Who has sacrificed for me
So I give up my life as an offering
That is pleasing to my Lord
My feet shall move at his command
And my mouth shall speak his words
Tis so sweet
Tis so sweet
Oh, to trust him more and more
Tis so sweet
Tis so sweet
Oh, to trust in him, my Lord
|

A thousand times I’ve fallen down
And grace has met me on my knees
Jesus, I do not deserve this love
And then you raised my weary head
You washed me with your holy blood
Jesus, I cannot live without this love
Chorus:
What a savior
What a friend
Never have I known love like this
What a savior
What a friend
Teach my heart to show a love like this
You clothed me in your righteousness
Replaced my sin with holiness
Jesus, how could I explain this love?
You fill my heart with songs to sing
A sacrifice of praise I bring
Jesus, I cannot contain this love
So that the world may know
So that the world may know
So that the world may know you

Such a Hope
02:43
|
|
||
|
Each time the sun breaks through the clouds
I am hopeful for that day
The day that you return to earth
How I’m longing for that day
A day to heal the suffering
Of a broken world
Chorus:
Every sinner, every saint
Will bow down on bended knee
They will know you
And confess that you are Lord
I have within me such a hope
The salvation of my soul!
My name is written in the book
You made new what once was old
And on that day, you will dry the tears
Of a broken world
