Song List
All Hail King Jesus
All hail King Jesus,
All hail Emmanuel,
King of kings, Lord of lords,
Bright Morning Star,
And throughout eternity,
I'll sing your praises,
And I’ll reign with Him,
Throughout eternity.
Amazing Grace
1. Amazing grace how sweet the sound,
That saved a wretch like me.
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
2. Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come,
Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
3. When we've been there ten-thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We've no less days to sing God's praise,
Than when we'd first begun.
Behold What Manner Of Love (1Jn3)
Behold what manner of love the Father has given unto us, x2
That we should be called the sons of God. x2
33
As the Deer (Ps. 42)
1. As the deer panteth for the water,
So my soul longeth after you.
You alone are my heart’s desire,
And I long to worship you.
2. You're my friend, and You are my brother,
Even though You are a King.
I love You more than any other,
So much more than anything.
Chorus : You alone are my strength, my shield.
To you alone will my spirit yield.
You alone are my heart’s desire,
And I long to worship you.
The Battle Belongs to the Lord
1. In heavenly armor we'll enter the land,
The battle belongs to the Lord.
No weapon that's fashioned against us will stand,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
2. When the power of darkness comes in like a flood,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
He's raised up a standard, the power of His blood,
The battle belongs to the Lord
3. When your enemy presses in hard do not fear,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
Take courage, my friend, your redemption is near,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
Chorus : We sing glory, honor,
power, and strength to the Lord. x2 34
Create in Me a Clean Heart (Ps. 51)
Create in me a clean heart, O God,
and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from Thy presence, O Lord
and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation,
and renew a right spirit within me.
Father, I Adore You
Father, I adore You
Lay my life before You
How I love You
Jesus, I adore You
Lay my life before You
How I love You
Spirit I adore You
Lay my life before You
How I love You
Give Thanks
Give thanks with a grateful heart
Give thanks unto the Holy One
Give thanks because He's given Jesus Christ, His Son (repeat)
And now let the weak say, "I am strong"
Let the poor say, "I am rich
Because of what the Lord has done for us" (repeat)
Give thanks...
35
Grace Greater Than Our Sin
1. Marvelous grace of our loving Lord
Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt!
Yonder on Calvary's mount outpoured--
there where the blood of the Lamb was spilt
2. Sin and despair like the sea waves cold
Threaten the soul with infinite loss
Grace that is greater--yes, grace untold--
Points to the refuge the mighty cross
3. Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace
Freely bestowed on all who believe!
You that are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace receive?
Chorus: Grace, grace, God's grace
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace, grace, God's grace
Grace that is greater than all our sin
He is Lord (Phil. 2)
He is Lord, He is Lord, He is risen from the dead,
And He is Lord. Every knee shall bow, every tongue
Confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.
Humble Thyself (James 4)
Humble thyself in the sight of the Lord. (Echo)
Humble thyself in the sight of the Lord. (Echo)
And He will lift you up, higher and higher.
And He will lift you up.
36
HIDING PLACE (Ps. 32)
You are my hiding place,
You always fill my heart with songs of deliverance
Whenever I am afraid I will trust in You.
I will trust in You, Let the weak say I am strong,
In the strength of the Lord, I will trust in You.
HE TOUCHED ME
Chorus: He touched me, oh, He touched me,
And oh, the joy that floods my soul,
Something happened, and now I know,
He touched me and made me whole.
1. Shackled by a heavy burden,
Neath a load of guilt and shame,
Then the hand of Jesus touched me,
Now I am no longer the same.
2. Since I met the blessed Savior,
Since He cleansed and made me whole,
I will never cease to praise Him,
I'll shout it while eternity rolls.
Holy ground
We are standing on holy ground,
And I know that there are angels all around.
Let us praise Jesus now,
We are standing in his presence, On holy ground.
37
I Exalt Thee (Ps. 97)
For Thou, O Lord, art high above all the earth,
Thou art exalted far above all gods.
For Thou, O Lord, art high above all the earth,
Thou art exalted far above all gods.
I exalt Thee, I exalt Thee,
I exalt Thee, O Lord. x2
I Love You, Lord
I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice,
to worship You, o my soul, rejoice!
Take joy, My King, in what You hear,
may it be a sweet, sweet sound, in Your ear.
I will call upon the lord (Ps. 18)
I will call upon the Lord, Who is worthy to be praised.
So shall I be saved from my enemies, I will call upon the lord
The Lord liveth, and blessed be the rock,
And let the God of my salvation be exalted. x2
Lord I Lift Your Name On High
Lord I lift your name on high. Lord I love to sing your praises.
I'm so glad your in my life. I'm so glad you came to save us.
You came from heaven to earth, to show the way,
from the earth to the cross, my debt to pay,
from the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky,
Lord I lift your name on high.
38
Majesty
Majesty, worship His Majesty.
Unto Jesus be all glory, power and grace.
Majesty, kingdom authority, flow from His throne,
Unto His own, His anthem raise.
So exalt. Lift up on high, the name of Jesus.
Magnify, love, glorify Christ Jesus, the King.
Majesty, worship His Majesty.
Jesus who died, now glorified,
King of all kings.
O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing
O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King, the triumphs of His grace!
Jesus, the name that charms our fears, that bids our sorrows cease;
It's music in the sinner's ears, it's life, and health, and peace.
He breaks the power of cancelled sin, He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean; His blood availed for me!
He speaks; and listening to His voice, new life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice, the humble poor believe.
Hear Him, you deaf; His praise, you dumb, your loosened tongues employ,
You blind, behold your Savior come, and leap, you lame, for joy!
My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad the honors of your name!
39
Our God Reigns
How lovely on the mountains are the feet of him
Who brings good news, good news announcing peace,
Proclaiming news of happiness
Our God reigns our god reigns
Our God reigns, our God reigns, our god reigns, our God reigns.
The Old Rugged Cross
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross,
The emblem of suff'ring and shame.
And I love that old cross, where the dearest and best,
For a world of lost sinners was slain.
In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine,
A wondrous beauty I see.
For twas on that old cross ,Jesus suffered and died,
To pardon and sanctify me.
To the old rugged cross, I will ever be true.
Its shame and reproach gladly bear.
Then he'll call me some day, to my home far away,
Where his glory forever I'll share.
Chorus: So I'll cherish the old rugged cross,
Till my trophies at last I lay down.
I will cling to the old rugged cross,
And exchange it some day for a crown.
