God Knows



You know when I sit and when I rise;

You perceive my thoughts from afar.

You discern my going out and my lying down;

With all my ways You are familiar


Ere a word’s on my tongue, you know Lord

You, LORD, know it completely.

You hem me in behind and before,

And you lay your hand upon me. 


Chorus

Of all of my troubles You are aware

It all is exposed in your light

You know the burdens I bear

Nothing is hidden from Your sight


You know my thoughts words and deeds

You number the hairs on my head

So I know you know my needs

You know the day I will be dead


Bridge

You know me and see me

And You test my heart toward  You

Nowhere to hide where you cannot see

All I am is exposed to Your view


Chorus

Of all of my troubles You’re aware

It all is exposed in your light

You know the burdens I bear

Nothing is hidden from Your sight


Psalm 139:2–5, 15-16

Matthew 10:29-31

God is My Song



Lord, do you have a song for me tonight?

Here am I, Lord, awaiting your light

When I receive it, I’ll sing it for you

I will be singing a song that is new


Jesus, you are the source of my songs

As you sing over me, I'll sing along

Together in harmony, I pray we sing

For you will inhabit that sweet offering


Behold, God is my salvation; 

I will trust, and will not be afraid

The Lord is my strength and my song

On Him my hope is stayed


Shout aloud sinner, and sing for joy

In Christ rejoice and now on Him wait

Shout aloud now saint, and sing for joy

I sing, For the Holy One is Great


Behold, God is my salvation; 

I will trust, and will not be afraid

The Lord is my strength and my song

On Him my hope is stayed


I will sing the sweet song of salvation

I will sing it out loud and strong

I will sing the song of redemption 

And pray that you will sing along


Melodies of mercy-Tunes of the truth

In my old age-Sing the songs of my youth


Behold, God is my salvation; 

I will trust, and will not be afraid

The Lord is my strength and my song

On Him my hope is stayed

In the Stillness

 



Here in the stillness of the night

A song arises in me

A song of the spirit that brings its own light

Giving my heart eyes that see


Here in the stillness, those spiritual eyes

Are focused on what is True

And visions of beauty and goodness arise

As I set my mind Lord on you


For I will be still

And I will know you

You are my God and ever shall be

It is your will

That I should know you

And understanding You I am free

In the stillness Your beauty I see


Here in the stillness of the morning

Mercy is rising anew

In this tranquility new hope is dawning

For all my hope I find in You


Now I will be still

And I will know you

You are my God and ever shall be

It is your will

That I should know you

And understanding You I am free

In the stillness Your beauty I see


Psalm 46:10; Jerermiah 9:23-24

The Weight of Glory


 

Through the Gospel we are called

Christ is now our all in all

The weight of glory we shall bear

For in His glory we shall share

 

Oh the glory Jesus gives

From the One who ever lives

That we may become one

Like the Father and the Son

 

Oh our trials and tribulations

Pale beside our great salvation

Though His suff’rings we now share

The weight of glory we shall bear

 

In Your Glory we shall share

We are his children and his heirs

If we share in His sufferings

In Christ we inherit everything

 

Bridge

Oh the glory so complete

Is in His presence, at His feet

The fellowship of His suffering

Unites us to the glory of our King

 

Oh our trials and tribulations

Pale beside our great salvation

Though His suff’rings we now share

The weight of glory we shall bear

Who is Like You?



Who is like you Oh God?

Who reigns in Holiness

There is none like you Lord

Who reigns in Righteousness

No eye has seen, no ear has heard

Of a god who can compare

You are God and God alone

Yet in Your glory we shall share

God of Wonders, you hold us in Your care


You are the Lord of Heaven

The beginning and the end

You’re the author of Creation

Yet you are our faithful friend

You are God Almighty

Yet you chose to condescend

Lord of Hosts on You we depend


Who is like You oh God?

Who is both wise and just?

You are a consuming fire

Yet in your peace we trust

You are the fount of lovingkindness

And you shed your love abroad

The Lord of Grace and mercy

Who’s not ashamed to be our God

God of all consolation-You we laud!


You are the Lord of Heaven

The beginning and the end

You’re the author of Creation

Yet you are our faithful friend

You are God Almighty

Yet you chose to condescend

Lord of Hosts on You we depend

Amazing Love


If there be any debt, a debt 

Of gratitude is all

It’s only right- that’s what’s required

This side of the fall. 

That God would give His Son for me.

To become my only plea 

Now heaven is my destiny. 

This is the upward call.


Amazing Love astounds the soul

Amazing Love confounds my mind

Amazing Love I now extol

No greater love can sinners find

For this love we were designed


How can there be a benefit

That to me accrues

Can I make some sense of it

How could I e’er refuse?

For love has shed its light on me

Quickened my heart and set me free

So here I ponder on my knees

The amazing good good news!


Now this love I shall pursue

To transform me and all I do

Amazing love will see me through

Each morning it is new!


Amazing Love astounds the soul

Amazing Love confounds my mind

Amazing Love I now extol

No greater love can sinners find

For this love we were designed

The Way of the Cross


When you’re staring down trouble

When you’re wrestling with fear

When the pain is redoubled

Christ is holding you near


The way has its suffering 

The way has its loss

There is only one way

The way of the cross


You know not the affliction 

From which you’ve been spared

Beyond illusions and fiction

There’s the glory He’s prepared


The way has its suffering 

The way has its loss

There is only one way

The way of the cross
