My God, my God, how steady you are
Despite my hard, distracted heart
My God, my God, how close you have been
Walking beside, before, within
My God, my God, how gracious you are
Persistent, devoted to redeeming scars
My God, my God, how great and good
You spoke new life when no one could
My God, you are faithful
My God, you are near
My God, you are steady, steady
Beyond all fear
My God, my God, how holy you are
Who else could hold and order the stars
My God, my God, your love sustains
When my heart is failing you remain
My God, you are faithful
My God, you are near
My God, you are steady, steady
Beyond all fear
My God, you are faithful
My God, you are true
My God, you are steady, steady
Help me to follow you
Steady, you are steady
No matter what I do
Ready, I am ready
Help me to follow you
Steady, you are steady
No matter what I do
Ready, I am ready
Help me to follow you
Steady, you are steady
No matter what I do
Ready, I am ready
Help me to follow you
My God, you are faithful
My God, you are near
My God, you are steady, steady
Beyond all fear
My God, you are faithful
My God, you are true
My God, you are steady, steady
Help me to follow you

You Are All I Have

My heart is stone, sinking fast
Clean future, louder past
Divided
You are God, I am me
How are we supposed to be
United
I need a new start
A new birth and new heart
You are all I have
You are all I need
You are all I have
You are hope and peace
I give up, I give in
My heart is yours, you let me in
Invited
Deepest loss, countless gain
To breathe your breath and sing again
Ignited
I need a new start
A new birth and new heart
You are all I have
You are all I need
You are all I have
You are hope and peace
I want you for you
Not what you can do
You want me for me
Not what I could be
I want you for you
Not what you can do
You want me for me
Not what I could be
I want you for you
Not what you can do
You want me for me
Not what I should be
You are all I have
You are all I need
You are all I have
You are hope and peace
You are all I have
You are all I need
You are all I have
You are hope and peace
You are hope and peace

i'm ok.

Some nights are too dark
And some days are too bright
Here in the middle with you
The weight of my heart
Is the weight of the world
What more can I do?
Your eyes, your arms are open wide
Your love, your love is magnified
I'm still here
I'm ok if you're with me
What may come and what will go
I'm ok if you're with me
Tonight
My heart is too small
And my mind is too full
There's no room for your glory
You can't find some hope
If you don't know you need it
Interrupt my story
Your eyes, your arms are open wide
Your love, your love is magnified
I'm still here
When hope, when light was thin as air
Your love, your love was standing there
I'm still here
I'm ok if you're with me
What may come and what will go
I'm ok if you're with me
Tonight
I'm ok if you're with me
What I am and what I know
I'm ok if you're with me
Tonight
The illusion of wholeness
Is no longer needed
You came for the broken
The darkness defeated
Erase all my answers
I come like a child
To live in your fullness
To be reconciled
I'm ok if you're with me
What may come and what will go
I'm ok if you're with me
Tonight
I'm ok if you're with me
What I am and what I know
I'm ok if you're with me
Tonight

Arise and Shine
05:43

I wake to darkness
I see nothing though my eyes are open
My heart, aware, but unimpressed
Unable to hear the Word you've spoken
The darkness wants to own me
I almost want that too
My heart, aware, but busy
As the Light is burning from you
In the darkness there is nothing
And the Light is like a dream
As I turn my heart is racing
To glimpse a Light supreme
Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you
The darkness is no equal
For the Light of life, the word made flesh
My heart, aware, but feeble
Can hardly take in Light so fresh
The dark in me protests the Light
But the Light shines brighter still
My heart, aware, awoken from its night
Such divine, irrational thrill
In the darkness there is nothing
And the Light is like a dream
As I turn my heart is racing
To glimpse a Light supreme
Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you
The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome
The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome
The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome
The Light shines in the darkness and
The darkness cannot overcome
Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
Arise and shine for your light has come
The glory of God has risen
For behold darkness shall cover the earth
But the Lord shall rise upon you
And his glory will be seen among you
Will be seen among you
Will be seen among you

God of Peace
04:26
|

|
God of peace and restoration
Designer of each passing age
Whose broader scope of salvation
Overwhelms my selfish faith
Crushed by the weight of your mercy
My soul now unfettered and free
Lover of poor, sick, and dirty
Compel me to draw them to thee
God of peace and wild compassion
Protector of widow and poor
Protect us from righteous inaction
Pretending that we matter more
Our songs and our praise is not your desire
Nor deeply religious affairs
A heart for the broken is what you require
To help lift the burdens they bear
Jesus, you've shown the way
Give us new hearts to live what you say
Jesus, you've shown the way
Give us new hearts to live what you say
Jesus, you've shown the way
Give us new hearts to live what you say
Jesus, you've shown the way
Give us new hearts to live what you say
God of peace and infinite wisdom
Neither time-bound, created, nor tame
When I see what we've done with your Kingdom
Allow me to share in your pain
Darkness is painting the earth black, it seems
But I know how history ends
The last shall be first and the lost redeemed
On that day, the earth you shall mend
