Forever Satisfied

Oh bread of life I come to you in hunger

We come to eat and we are satisfied

Oh living water, for you we are thirsty

Here in your presence we would for e’re abide

From all that Jesus is we will drink and feed

This is very thing thing that makes us whole

This is the source that meets our deepest needs

That satisfies the longings of the soul

Once  filthy and unclean

But now  to sin we have died

This is what believing means 

We are forever satisfied

Forever satisfied, forever satisfied

We are forever satisfied!

In the presence and promise of Jesus we will trust

This unfailing  fountain overflows our needs

Then living water flows out from our  hearts of dust

It lasts forever and to heaven leads

Once  filthy and unclean

But now  to sin we have died

This is what believing means 

We are forever satisfied

Forever satisfied, forever satisfied

We are forever satisfied!

Wait for the Lord

When you seem to reap a whirlwind 
you never sowed to the wind

And the storm of doubt assails you 
And foundations seem to bend

Remember God is FOR us 
His faithfulness won't flinch

A bruised reed he will not break,  
and a wick he will not quench.

The sun of righteousness shall rise 
'Neath these healing wings we hide

Let his promises blow through each window 
In each Heart that opens wide

He will lift up your humbled head  
And fan your spark into a flame

The Spirit of Encouragement 
On your heart shall lay its claim

Wait for the Lord; be strong, be strong,  
take courage in your heart today

wait for the Lord! wait for the Lord!  
And He will show the way.

Wait for the Lord; be strong, be strong, 
 take courage in your heart today

wait for the Lord! wait for the Lord! 
And He will show the way.

Gods goodness and His mercy 
shall follow all your days

We know not what were spared from 
as we walk His narrow ways

As we walk a long obedience 
we shall surely come to see

When the troubles and the trials come 
the truth shall set us free

Wait for the Lord; be strong, be strong,  
take courage in your heart today

wait for the Lord! wait for the Lord!  
And He will show the way.

Wait for the Lord; be strong, be strong,  
take courage in your heart today

wait for the Lord! wait for the Lord! 
And He will show the way.

Hope of My Future

When I take my final breath

When it comes my time for death

The grace of God I will clearly see…

This truth will stand there by my bed,

Whether sooner comes in later's stead

Your mercy and your kindness embrace me

And when I come to die

On this I can rely

The grace of his kind mercy guards deaths door

Infinitely tender hands

Will lift me up to the promise land

Where I will dwell with God forevermore

Bridge-Hope of my future, and all I believe

the power to serve and the good sense to grieve

Those who weep will surely reap

A harvest of souls before we leave

So when it comes that day

When the race is run I pray

That you will visit me with tender grace

Then I will come to see

Through all eternity

The hope of glory when I see your face

Mercy and Kindness

I want to know you as you know me

You know my every thought and deed

mercy and kindness is what you show me

mercy and kindness is what I need

I pray your grace will come to grow me

Till from my selfish ways I am freed

mercy and kindness is what you show me

mercy and kindness is what I need

Longsuffering and patient you embrace me

Lord you are so good to me

You will convict, convince and face me

With the truth I need  to see

When your discipline corrects my way

Give me grace to understand I pray

For your mercy paves a way  to victory

Lord in your kindness you bestow me

With every blessing youve decreed

So undeserving, nothing is owed me

But mercy and kindness is what I need

I want to know you as you know me

You know my every thought and deed

mercy and kindness is what you show me

mercy and kindness is what I need

Mercy and kindness is what I need

Mercy and kindness is what I need

You are God and There is No Other

You are God and there is no other

Forever and ever your counsel shall stand

You will accomplish all your purpose

You will  complete your sovereign plans

You are unchangeable in wisdom

According to your purpose it shall be

Nothing shall befall your beloved children

That is not for our good and for your glory!

For You are in ultimate control

Over every bird that falls and every soul

You do whatever  you please

Time flows from your decrees

For you alone have set its final goal

Your will for us will be completed

Creation trembles at your command

Your design for us can’t be defeated

For none can stay your mighty right hand

For You are in ultimate control

Over every bird that falls and every soul

You do whatever  you please

Time flows from your decrees

For you alone have set its final goal

Oh What a Hope!

This is my boast- that I know You

This is my boast that I understand

You are revealed as Faithful and True

Now on this Truth I take my stand

In the fullness of time

In the fullness of Grace

Covered in the blood of Christ

We shall see your Face

This is my hope – that you have known me

This is the hope that sees me through

You died for me so you could set me free

Now heaven’s hope is found in You

In the fullness of time

In the fullness of Grace

Covered in the blood of Christ

We shall see your Face

Oh What a hope, so tried and tested

What a bless-ed hope -ere I live or die

This is the promise where I’ve rested

On your faithful love I can rely

You Are the Light

You are the Light that shines in this darkness

Tho I am surrounded you still deliver me

You are my rock and my only salvation

Your light shines in me for all the world to see.

Who is like you oh Lord?

Whose word is like a two edged sword?

I am a remnant of the fall

You are the mighty Lord of All

You are the glory power and might

You are the God of births and graves

I’ll bask forever in Your light

You have the only Name that saves

Bridge:

As I lick my wounds you provide a balm

As I ride this storm you create a calm

For You will safely see my through

Your Light will show me what to do!

Whatever God calls you to do

Whatever mountain you must climb

He’ll give the strength to see it through

He lights the way through troubled times

You are the glory power and might

You are the God of births and graves

I’ll bask forever in Your light

You have the only Name that saves
