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
