Up Above My Head (traditional spiritual)

Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
Up above my head, (echo)                   I hear music in the air (echo)
And I really do believe. (echo)             Heaven’s coming right here (echo)

Up above my head there’s singing in the air…   All over this place there’s angels everywhere…

Heaven come right here. (echo)          Heaven come right here (echo)
Let your kingdom come. (echo)           Let your will be done (echo)
Right here on Earth (echo)                   as it is up there. (echo)
Heaven come right here. (echo)          Heaven come right here (echo)
All over the world, there’s trouble everywhere… (3x)
But I really do believe Heaven’s coming right here

Up above my head…

I Came to Praise the Lord

I don’t know what you came to do, but I came to praise the Lord (4X)
Hallelu Hallelu Hallellujah

Hallellujah Hallelujah (4x)

Praise the Name of Jesus

Praise the name of Jesus, Praise the name of Jesus
He’s my rock. He’s my fortress. He’s my deliverer. In Him will I trust
Praise the Name of Jesus

Raise a Hallelujah

I raise a hallelujah in the presence of my enemies
I raise a hallelujah louder than the unbelief
I raise a hallelujah, my weapon is a melody
I raise a hallelujah, heaven comes to fight for me

Chorus 1:  I’m gonna sing in the middle of the storm
Louder and louder, you’re gonna hear my praises roar
Up from the ashes hope will arise
Death is defeated, the King is alive!

I raise a hallelujah with everything inside of me
I raise a hallelujah, I will watch the darkness flee
I raise a hallelujah in the middle of the mystery
I raise a hallelujah, Fear, you lost your hold on me

Bridge:  Lift Him up higher, In the presence of my enemies
Lift Him up higher, Louder than the unbelief
Lift Him up higher, My weapon is a melody
Lift Him up higher, Heaven comes to fight for me

Tag:  I raise a hallelujah

Tremble

Peace, bring it all to peace, The storms surrounding me, Let it break at Your name
Still, call the sea to still, The rage in me to still, Every wave at Your name

Chorus: Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble
Jesus, Jesus, You silence fear
Jesus, Jesus, You make the darkness tremble, Jesus, Jesus

Breathe, call these bones to live, Call these lungs to sing, Once again I will praise

Bridge:  Your name is a light that the shadows can’t deny, Your name cannot be overcome
Your name is alive, forever lifted high, Your name cannot be overcome

Stand By Me

When the storms of life are ragin’         Stand by me
When the storms of life are ragin’         Stand by me
When the world is tossin’ me                Like a ship upon the sea
Thou who rulest winds and water         Stand by me

In the midst of tribulation                   Stand by me
In the midst of tribulation                    Stand by me
When the hosts of hell assail               And my strength begins to fail
Thou who never lost a battle               Stand by me

Stand by me, Stand by me, Great Jehovah, stand by me. (2X)

In the midst of persecution                  Stand by me
In the midst of persecution                  Stand by me
When my foes in battle array               Undertake to stop my way,
Thou who saved Paul and Silas            Stand by me.

When I’m growing old and feeble        Stand by me
When I’m growing old and feeble        Stand by me
When my life becomes a burden        And I’m nearing to the Jordan,
Oh, the Lily of the Valley                     Stand by me

Oh no matter what I’ve done                You’ve stood by me
And now matter where I’ve gone          You’ve stood by me.
And when we’re there on that last day,   When the mists have blown away
You’ll say, “Son, welcome home. Come stand by me.”

Tis so Sweet to Trust in Jesus

Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,    just to take Him at His word.
Just to rest upon His promise,   just to know “Thus saith the Lord”

Chorus:  Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!  How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er!
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!  O for grace to trust Him more!

O how sweet to trust in Jesus,   just to trust His cleansing blood.
Just in simple faith to plunge me ‘neath the healing, cleansing flood!

Yes, ‘tis sweet to trust in Jesus, just from sin and self to cease,
Just from Jesus simply taking life and rest and joy and peace.

I’m so glad I learned to trust Him, precious Jesus, Savior, Friend.
And I know that He is with me, will be with me to the end

Everlasting God (Strength Will Rise)

Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord

We will wait upon the Lord, We will wait upon the Lord

Pre-Chorus: Our God, You reign forever
Our Hope, our strong Deliverer

The everlasting God
You do not faint
You won’t grow weary
You’re the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles

The Lord is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger and rich in love (2X)

That’s how far He has removed our transgressions from us

Prince of Peace (You Are Holy)

I Will Serve You

I will serve You
Because I love You
You have given life to me
I was nothing until You found me
You have given life to me

Heartaches, broken people,
Ruined lives are why You died on Calvary
Your touch is what I long for,
You have given life to me

Lord, I lift Your Name on High

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

Chorus: 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

Ten Days of Praise

In conjunction with several other initiatives of prayer and worship from Passover to Pentecost, 2021, WayMakers has published a praise guide named Ten Days of Praise.

Ten Days of Praise

Ascension to Pentecost
May 13-22, 2021

For many, these ten days of worship and praise lead the way to March for Jesus celebrations on May 22, with the theme, “Worthy is the Lamb.” The prayers and praise expressions are embedded in a rich, but simple description of the ascension of Christ as King to fulfill all that God has purposed for all nations.

Written by Steve Hawthorne, this praise guide is included in Seek God for the City 2021. But this praise guide is also being made available, at no cost, in a pdf format, making it easy to use on any device. Download the document, and let the praise begin!
