Grace Like Rain

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound; That saved a wretch like me
And I once was lost but now I’m found; Was blind but now I see so clearly

And Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
And Hallelujah, and all my stains are washed away; They’re washed away

‘Twas grace that taught; My heart to fear; And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear; The hour I first believed

When we’ve been there ten thousand years; Bright shining as the sun
We’ve no less days to sing Your praise; Than when we first begun

King of Kings

In the darkness, we were waiting; Without hope, without light
‘Til from Heaven You came running; There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets; To a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory; To a cradle in the dirt

Praise the Father, praise the Son; Praise the Spirit, three in one
God of glory, Majesty; Praise forever to the King of Kings

To reveal the kingdom coming; And to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation; You did not despise the cross
For even in Your suffering; You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation; Jesus for our sake You died

And the morning that You rose; All of Heaven held its breath
‘Til that stone was moved for good; For the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs; And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who’d come; To the Father are restored

And the church of Christ was born; Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this gospel truth of old; Shall not kneel, shall not faint
By His blood and in His name; In His freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ; Who has resurrected me, ohh

Christ Is Risen

Let no one caught in sin remain; Inside the lie of inward shame
We fix our eyes upon the cross; And run to Him who showed great love

And bled for us; Freely You have bled for us

Christ is risen from the dead; Trampling over death by death
Come awake, come awake; Come and rise up from the grave

Christ is risen from the dead; We are one with Him again
Come awake, come awake; Come and rise up from the grave

Beneath the weight of all our sin; You bowed to none but Heaven’s will
No scheme of Hell, no scoffer’s crown; No burden great can hold You down

In strength You reign; Forever let Your church proclaim

O death, where is your sting?; O hell, where is your victory?
O church, come stand in the light; The glory of God has defeated the night

You Are My All In All

You are my strength when I am weak; You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel; Lord, to give up I’d be a fool
You are my all in all

Taking my sin, my cross, my shame; Rising again I bless Your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down You pick me up; When I am dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all

Jesus, Lamb of God; Worthy is Your name; Jesus, Lamb of God; Worthy is Your name

The Stand

You stood before creation; Eternity within Your hands

And you spoke all life 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 could I do; But offer this heart O God; Completely to You

So I’ll walk upon salvation; Your Spirit alive in me

This life to declare Your promise; My soul now to stand

So what can I say; What could I do; But offer this heart O God; Completely to You

So I’ll stand; With arms high and heart abandoned; In awe of the One who gave it all
So I’ll stand; My soul Lord to You surrendered; All I am is Yours

The Steadfast Love of the Lord

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases,

His mercies never come to an end;
they are new every morning, new every morning:

great is your faithfulness, O Lord

great is your faithfulness!

Praise Before My Breakthrough

I know the tension of the now, I don’t always understand
I don’t always get to see, Everything

When I’m holding up my hands, When I’m counting every breath
Lord, all I need to know is, You choose me, You choose me

I’ll praise before my breakthrough, ‘Til my song becomes my triumph
I will sing because I trust You, I will bring my heart, I will lift my song

When I’m listening for Your voice, And I’m shutting out the noise
I know that You will speak, Clearly

When I’m living out my faith, When I’m stepping on the sea
I know You take my hand, And walk with me, Walk with me

He who came in power, He will come again,

He who heals the sick, won’t He move again
He who raised the dead, won’t He raise again, And I will sing, I will sing

And I will sing because I trust You, And I’ll worship because I trust
I sing because I love You, And I’ll bring my heart, I will lift my song

I Will Exalt You, Lord

Your Presence is all I need, It’s all I want, all I seek
Without it, without it there’s no meaning

Your Presence is the air I breathe, The song I sing, the love I need
Without it, without it I’m not living

I will exalt You, Lord, I will exalt You, Lord, There is no one like You God
I will exalt You, Lord, I will exalt You, Lord, No other name be lifted high

There will be no one like You, And no one beside You,                                        You alone are worthy of all praise

Break Every Chain

There is power in the name of Jesus (3X)
To break every chain, break every chain, break every chain (2X)

There’s an army rising up (3X)
To break every chain, break every chain, break every chain (2X)

There is power in the name of Jesus (3X)
To break every chain, break every chain, break every chain (2X)

There’s an army rising up (3X)
To break every chain, break every chain, break every chain (2X)

I hear the chains falling, I hear the chains falling

Had It Not Been The Lord

Had it not been the Lord who is on our side, Had it not been the Lord who is on our side
The anger of the enemy would have swallowed us alive

Had it not been the Lord who is on our side

Blessed be The lord who would not give us up

Blessed be The Lord for His unfailing Love
The snare is broken and we have escaped,

Our help is in The name of The Lord, Blessed be The Lord

Had it not been the Lord who is on our side, Had it not been the Lord who is on our side
The water would have engulfed us, We would have surely died
Had it not been the Lord who is on our side
