In Spirit and in Truth



Father,  we praise You, For You are Love and Light

We would now embrace You, Hold us by thy might

We come before you singing we come to you in prayer

Our true worship bringing  as we rest in Your care

We your people unite your glories to exalt

Here by faith and not by sight we live as light and salt

 Living in your presence we are made complete

In holiness and reverence before your mercy seat


In spirit and truth we worship you

On your glory we would gaze

You are faithful you are true

And worthy of all praise 


We come in adoration your glories to confess

You are our salvation you are our righteousness 

We come in thanksgiving for all that you provide

In your presence living, the life that you’ve supplied 


In spirit and truth we worship you

On your glory we would gaze

You are faithful you are true

And worthy of all praise 


Hallowed be your great name, praised in all the earth

May it be our great aim to declare your great worth

Lord have mercy on us, keep us by your grace

In your goodness we trust, as we run our race.

Monarch over all things may your kingdom come

Fit us to be offerings transformed when life is done

Bring us to your throneroom, help us apprehend

The beauty of our bridegroom, and joy that never ends

Rise Up and Bless the Lord



Oh you souls by sorrow bent

Give rise to your heart’s lament

Then to your very soul preach at last

Soul, why are you so downcast?


Rise up, rise up and bless the Lord

Rise up and greet the day

To languish you cannot afford

Rise up rejoice and obey


Rise up, rise up and sing His praise

Rise up and hallow His name

Your spirit by His Spirit  raised

Make praise your endless aim

Rise up and bless His name


We live and move and walk by grace

All we who live in Him by faith

He shall overcome our woes 

For Christ our Lord arose


Rise up, rise up and bless the Lord

Rise up and shout His praise

Arise  now with your strength restored

Rejoice for endless days

Rise up and shout His praise!

Walk On


 

Set the course, let the lines all unveil,

They say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Yet I find myself often going without knowing where to go,

When great adventures seem too great, daunting doubts begin to grow.

 

I pray thee, Lord, look down as I am upon my knees,

I need to walk on water through these shifting, heavy seas.

I’ll walk on…I offer up my own agenda tonight,

As the next chapter of my life you prepare to write.

When the fog rolls in and the path ahead is gray,

I long to hear a voice behind me clearly say:

"This is the way, walk in it, do not be afraid."

I’ll walk on the firm foundation that your promises have made.

 

Too easily satisfied with the comfort of the shore,

Yet prone to a wandering heart that looks for something more.

I try to grip my destiny, to hold it tightly in my hands,

But I must let it go completely, and follow your plans.

 

Bridge

So I will let go of my hopes and dreams

I will step off the shore and learn what faith means

No longer vexed, no longer bound by what I cannot see,

A voice behind me whispers of the grace that carries me.

This is the way, walk in it, step into the day—

To simply trust and obey… Trust and obey.

 

I pray thee, Lord, look down as I am upon my knees,

I need to walk on water through these shifting, heavy seas.

I’ll walk on… I offer up my own agenda tonight,

As the next chapter of my life you prepare to write.

When the fog rolls in and the path ahead is gray,

I long to hear a voice behind me clearly say:

"This is the way, walk in it, do not be afraid."

I’ll walk on the firm foundation that your promises have made

 

Isaiah 30:21

What’s Next?



I am standing at the shoreline, waiting for a word,

Listening so closely for a whisper yet unheard.

A quiet restlessness is stirring up my soul,

Deep inside I’m wondering: what’s the next goal?


What’s next? Set the course, let the journey all unveil,

They say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Yet I find myself often going without knowing where to go,

When great adventures seem too great, and daunting doubts begin to grow.

It’s more than I know but let’s go!


I feel vexed by the silence, caught in anticipation,

Looking to the heavens, seeking illumination.

Am I standing still, or preparing for another quest?

My spirit is eager, though my mind is seeking rest.


As the winds pick up and it’s time to set sail,

Questions abound, yet one persists 

When my courage starts to fail:

I wrestle with the question

I don’t know what the future holds,

But I know who holds the future.

And I long to see it as it unfolds


What’s next? Set the course, let the journey all unveil,

They say if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.

Yet I find myself often going without knowing where to go,

When great adventures seem too great, and daunting doubts begin to grow.

It’s more than I know but let’s go!

Let’s go, let’s go!

Take Us to Your Side



Lord, we yearn -For your return

We are Your Bride-Take us to your side


Your Holy Nation

Longs for consummation

We have long dreamed

To sing the song of the redeemed

At our complete salvation


For your glory is what we want to see

To abide in your radiance- full and free

Bold before your throne

To bask in you alone

Standing there or upon bended knee

To live in glory- Eternally, eternally!


Lord, come again- Free us from sin

As we repent- Bring a new advent


As you close history

Begin the new story

Capture us

Enrapture us

Wrap us in your glory


For your glory is what we want to see

To abide in your radiance- full and free

Bold before your throne

To bask in you alone

Standing there or upon bended knee

To live in glory- Eternally, eternally!


Lord, we yearn -For your return

We are Your Bride-Take us to your side

Grace


Grace has overpowered my sinful heart

Now it puts my sins away

Your grace has empowered me from the start

And sustained me day unto day


Grace has renewed my sinful mind

So my thoughts are being cleansed

As a new creature, I’m redefined

I no longer seek my own ends


I would be faithful,  faithful forever

For You are faithful forever to me

For nothing can ever, ever sever 

The Grace that made this blind man see

And transformed my destiny…


Grace has rescued my sinful soul

And sanctifies me to be sure

Grace is breaking and making me whole

So I might be holy and pure


Bridge 

Your grace is sufficient fully sufficient

More than sufficient t’will be

Your unmerited favor shall never relent

For your power is perfected in me


I would be faithful faithful forever

For You are faithful forever to me

For nothing can ever, ever sever 

The Grace that made this blind man see

And transformed my destiny
