Lyrics for Worship on the Lawn 7/26
July 25th, 2020Community UpdatesEach Day
Each day…I grow a little nearer, Each day…He seems a little dearer
Each day…I grow a little nearer to the Lord
Each day…my path gets brighter, Each day…my load gets lighter
Each day…I grow a little nearer to the Lord
While on this pilgrim’s journey a servant I will be
Oh each day (each day) I grow a little nearer to Thee
My friends talk about me but that don’t bother me
Because each day (Each day) I grow a little nearer to the Lord
You know when trouble overtakes me, Right by my side He’ll be
Yes, each day (each day) I grow a little nearer to Thee
Yes, I know he’s water when I’m thirsty
A shelter, Lord, for me, And each day (each day) I grow a little nearer to the Lord
Waiting Here For You
If faith can move the mountains, let the mountains move
We come with expectation, waiting here for You, Waiting here for You
You’re the Lord of all Creation, and still you know my heart
The Author of salvation, You’ve loved me from the start
Waiting here for You, with our hands lifted high in praise
And it’s You, we adore, singing Alleluia
You are everything You’ve promised, Your faithfulness is true
We’re desperate for Your presence, All we need is You
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.”
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!
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.
God is So Good
God is so good, God is so good, God is so good, He’s so good to me
He answers prayer, (Hallelujah)…He’s so good to me!
I praise His name, (Hallelujah)…He’s so good to me!
The answer’s not to force a moral story, The answer’s not to bring back days of old
The answer is the King in all His glory, Come and take your throne
When times times are strange and righteousness seems complicated
When lies and truth are said to be more integrated
The Holy Ghost time after time has demonstrated, Jesus is alive
You Reign Above It All
The reign of darkness now has ended, In the kingdom of light, In the kingdom of light
Forever under Your dominion, You’re the King of my life, You’re the King of my life
You reign above it all, You reign above it all, Over the universe
And over every heart, There is no higher name, Jesus You reign above it all
On the cross the work was finished, God You poured out Your life, Just to give us new life
Now from the lips of the forgiven, Hear an anthem arise, ‘Cause Jesus You’re alive
Let all of heaven and the earth erupt in song, Sing hallelujah to the Everlasting One
There is no higher name, Jesus You reign above it all, You reign above it all
You sent the darkness running, Out of an empty grave
Now seated alone in glory, Enthroned on the highest praise (4X)
Goodness of God
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 nights
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 (2X)
With my life laid down, I’m surrendered now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running after, it’s running after me
