May our Praise
02:31
|
|||
|
Our hands are useless Lord unless they're
raised up to Your throne
Our thoughts make little sense unless they're
thoughts of Your own
So come and change our hearts and minds
and come and change our view
So our praise is beautiful to You
May our praise be beautiful to You
May our praise be beautiful to You
With everything I we are and sing and everything we do
make our praises beautiful to You
Unless we mean the things we sing
we sing our songs in vain
We're wasting all our time
unless we glorify Your name
So come and change our hearts and minds
and come and change our view
So our praise is beautiful to You
Pour Your Holy Spirit in and let us glorify the King
Awake O my soul and sing
and offer up my everything
(Oh Lord You are so beautiful to us)

Lift Your Voice
03:08
|
|||
|
Lift your voice
a victory sound
as we lift out eyes
from off the ground
and let shouts of praise
be heard all around
This is all i want to know
the moving of Your Spirit
deep in the places only you can go
And this is all i want to see
hands lifted up to praise the King
that once were bound but now have been made free
because You’re alive...
This is all I want to do
please the one who made me
and reflect the glory straight back up to You
And this is all I want to feel
the presence of You all around
showing that Your love for us is real
You’re alive...

Come and Pour
04:19
|
|||
|
Should I come to You outspoken
what are words worth if they come alone?
Or should I come with arms wide open
while my insides they are shrinking back
I’ll come and pour my heart out
I’ll come and pour my heart out to You
so you can come and take it
so you can come and take it for You
I’ll come and pour my heart out
I’ll come and pour my heart out to You
so You can come and make it
so You can come and make it new
Should I come to You outspoken
what are words worth if they come alone?
Or should i come acting broken
but I’m closed to You, not close to You
And I’m not hiding , and I’m not misunderstood
But Lord you see through everything
And Lord, You are good
It’s time You came to me, and pulled me right part
That’s why I come to You to give to You my heart

Come Down
03:57
|
|||
|
Have mercy Lord because your bride to be the Church is sick
We need much much more than stale words and empty rhetoric
to You we pray
to You we plead
for you o Lord
are all we need
Come down, come dose
by Your Spirit come down come down
by Your Spirit come down
Take away the things that would destroy and steal and kill
replace them with a passion to out and do Your will
To You we pray
to You we plead
for You o lord
are all we need
We need You….

I was sailing alone on an ocean
with nothing but self in my sails
searching for treasures of earth and of man I prevailed
When all of a sudden the waves broke
and upwards I let out a cry
A hand calmed the storm and stretched out a map before my eyes
And unfolded there were directions
a narrow straight path that You trod
and the greatest treasure that I'll find
You showed Lord Your cross marks the spot
Now Your grace is the sea on which I sail
Your love is the anchor I cast
Your spirit’s the wind and salvation the flag on my mast
And seas become rough and the days fade
But I know my life it is yours
I’m trusting and holding on to you till I’m at the shore
And I still have your directions
a narrow straight path that You trod
And the greatest treasure that I'll find
you showed LordYour cross marks the spot
Guide me home...

Don't Know
04:39
|
|||
|
I don't only see questions when I look at the cross
but Lord I see answers when I think of the cost
like how could the Saviour
have died for me?
Lord I don’t know or understand
the depth of love shown by the blood of the Lamb
but Lord I know of your mercy
because that Lamb died for me
I don’t only rejoice at Your sacrifice
But I’m lost for words because you gave up Your life
But You say it's finished
and freedom is mine
and I could sail across
and read a thousand commentaries
but not fathom of all your grace
Or get a big degree
in high theology
and still just be able to say...

Bag of Bones
02:23
|
|||
|
Jesus I’m nothing without you
I can do no act of worth
Just a bag of bones without you
Lifeless dust upon the earth
And You are all that I want
and You’re all I’ve ever needed
And You are all that I want
and You’re all I’ll ever need
Jesus...

The Rededication Song
03:26
|
|||
|
When I look back on all my days
I see the times when my selfish heart turned away
but Lord through it all
You were right there calling me to yourself
Here’s my rededication to You
And my motivation is You
Jesus my Saviour come dwell in my life
and I rededicate it to You
Jesus come be my Lord
Help me to follow you like never before
I’ll put things aside
I’ll give you my life, it’s no longer mine
I lay down at the alter
at the alter

The Jailbird
02:10
|
|||
|
I was once a jailbird
In a cage with broken wings
And without new songs to sing
With no way out and nowhere else to go
I was once a prisoner
in a cell made out of stone
built up high all on my own
Killing time while waiting on death row
And then shone a light into that room
You walked inside and then you held aloft the keys
And my chains fell off inside that tomb
I walked outside and sang ‘Jesus has set my free!’
And instead of serving my time
I’ll serve You with my whole life
now I know that Jesus has set me free!

Send the Fire
03:02
|
|||
|
O God of burning cleansing flame
Send the fire
Your blood-bought gift today we claim
Send the fire today
Look down and see this waiting host
And send the promised Holy Ghost
We need another Pentecost
Send the fire today
Send the fire today
God of Elijah hear our cry
Send the fire
And make us fit to live or die
Send the fire today
To burn up every trace of sin
To bring the light and glory in
The revolution now begin
Send the fire today
Send the fire today
It's fire we want for fire we plead
Send the fire
The fire will meet our every need
Send the fire today
For strength to always do what's right
For grace to conquer in the fight
For power to walk the world in white
Send the fire today
Send the fire today
And we want it
and we want it
Come on and let the fire burn in us

Battlefield
03:50
|
|||
|
I look up as I start to wake
what is this place I'm sure I felt it shake
Blood sweat and tears
soak the ground (on which)? I lie
while blinding light and fire fill the sky
and I was limping when I could be healed
and I was standing when I should've kneeled
and to my heart Lord You will reveal…
Felt a shot pass right by my head
resting by the wounded and the dead
opposing sides trade their blows and screams
could this place be what it seems?
and I was limping when I could be healed
and I was standing when I should've kneeled
and to my heart Lord you have revealed
that I've been sleeping in a battlefield
Lord wake us from our sleep
Lord wake us up
there's a mission to keep
Lord wake us up
Put a fight within me
Lord wake us from our sleep
Lord wake us up
there's a harvest to reap
Lord wake us up
Put a fight within me
I got up, said sorry Lord
grabbed my breastplate and my sword
took my helmet, belt, my shoes, my shield
and marched with You through the battlefield
