    Grace Like Rain

    Amazing grace, how sweet the sound, That saved a wretch like me
    I once was lost, but now I’m found, Was blind, but now I see so clearly

    Chorus: Hallelujah grace like rain falls down on me,
    Hallelujah all my stains are washed away, They’re washed away

    ‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, And grace my fears relieved
    How precious did that grace appear, The hour I first believed

     When we’ve been there ten thousand years, Bright shining as the sun
    We’ve no less days to sing Your praise, Than when we’d first begun

     

    Great Are You, Lord

    You give life, You are love
    You bring light to the darkness
    You give hope, You restore every heart that is broken
    And great are You, Lord

    Chorus:  It’s Your breath in our lungs
    So we pour out our praise
    We pour out our praise
    It’s Your breath in our lungs
    So we pour out our praise to You only

    Bridge: And all the earth will shout Your praise
    Our hearts will cry, these bones will sing
    Great are You, Lord

      

    Christ Is Mine Forevermore

    Mine are days that God has numbered, I was made to walk with Him
    Yet I look for worldly treasure, And forsake the King of kings

    Chorus 1: But mine is hope in my Redeemer, Though I fall, His love is sure
    For Christ has paid for every failing, I am His forevermore

    Mine are tears in times of sorrow, Darkness not yet understood
    Through the valley I must travel, Where I see no earthly good

    Chorus 2: But mine is peace that flows from heaven, And the strength in times of need
    I know my pain will not be wasted, Christ completes His work in me

    Mine are days here as a stranger, Pilgrim on a narrow way
    One with Christ I will encounter, Harm and hatred for His name

    Chorus 3: But mine is armor for this battle, Strong enough to last the war
    And He has said He will deliver, Safely to the golden shore

    Chorus 4: And mine are keys to Zion city, Where beside the King I walk
    For there my heart has found its treasure, Christ is mine forevermore

    Bridge: Come rejoice now, O my soul, For His love is my reward
    Fear is gone and hope is sure, Christ is mine forevermore

    Ending:     Christ is mine forevermore (2X)

      

    Our God Alone

    Who formed the mountains and filled the oceans?
    Our God alone, our God alone
    Who took the dust, breathed life in us?
    Our God alone, our God alone

    Chorus 1:     Alleluia (6x)

    Who came from heaven for our redemption?
    Our God alone, our God alone
    Who died for sin that we may live?
    Our God alone, our God alone

    Chorus 1

    Who rose again? Death could not win
    Our God alone, our God alone
    Who is returning bringing our kingdom?
    Our God alone, our God alone

    Chorus 2:     We will worship, we will worship, Our God alone, our God alone (2X)

    Chorus 1

     

    Wonderful, Merciful Savior

    Wonderful, merciful Savior
    Precious Redeemer and Friend
    Who would have thought that a Lamb
    Could rescue the souls of men
    Oh, You rescue the souls of men

    Chorus:     You are the One that we praise
    You are the One we adore
    You give the healing and grace
    Our hearts always hunger for
    Oh, our hearts always hunger for

    Counselor, Comforter, Keeper
    Spirit we long to embrace
    You offer hope when our hearts
    Have hopelessly lost the way
    Oh, we hopelessly lost the way

    Almighty, infinite Father
    Faithfully loving Your own
    Here in our weakness You find us
    Falling before Your throne
    Oh, we’re falling before Your throne

    Happy Day

    The greatest day in history, death is beaten, You have rescued me
    Sing it out, Jesus is alive!
    The empty cross, the empty grave, Life eternal, You have won the day
    Shout it all, Jesus is alive! He´s alive!

     Chorus: Oh happy day, happy day – You washed my sin away
    Oh happy day, happy day – I’ll never be the same
    Forever I am changed

    When I stand, in that place, free at last, meeting face to face
    I am Yours, Jesus, You are mine
    Endless joy, perfect peace, earthly pain finally will cease
    Celebrate Jesus is alive! He’s alive!

    Bridge: Oh what a glorious day, what a glorious way, That You have saved me
    Oh what a glorious day, what a glorious name!

     

    Christ is Risen

    Let no one caught in sin remain, inside the lie of inward shame
    But fix our eyes upon the cross, and run to Him who showed great love
    And bled for us, freely You’ve bled for us

    Chorus:  Christ is risen from the dead, Trampling over death by death
    Come awake, come awake! Come and rise up from the grave!
    Christ is risen from the dead, We are one with Him again
    Come awake come awake! Come and rise up from the grave!

    Beneath the weight of all our sin You bowed to none but heaven’s will
    No scheme of hell no scoffer’s crown, no burden great can hold You down
    In strength You reign, forever let Your church proclaim

    Bridge:  O death, where is your sting? O hell, where is your victory?
    O church, come stand in the light! The glory of God has defeated the night!
    Singing, O death, where is your sting? O hell, where is your victory?
    O church come stand in the light! Our God is not dead! He’s alive! He’s alive!

     

    O Praise the Name

    I cast my mind to Calvary, where Jesus bled and died for me
    I see His wounds His hands His feet, my Savior on that cursed tree

    His body bound and drenched in tears, they laid Him down in Joseph’s tomb
    The entrance sealed by heavy stone, Messiah still and all alone

    Chorus: O praise the Name of the Lord our God, O praise His Name forevermore
    For endless days we will sing Your praise, Oh Lord, oh Lord our God

    Then on the third at break of dawn, the Son of heaven rose again
    O trampled death, where is your sting? The angels roar for Christ the King!

    He shall return in robes of white, the blazing sun shall pierce the night
    And I will rise among the saints, my gaze transfixed on Jesus’ face

     

    Forever (We Sing Hallelujah)

    The moon and stars they wept, the morning sun was dead,
    The Savior of the world was fallen
    His body on the cross, His blood poured out for us
    The weight of every curse upon Him

    One final breath He gave, as heaven looked away
    The Son of God was laid in darkness
    A battle in the grave, the war on death was waged
    The power of hell forever broken

    Pre-Chorus:  The ground began to shake, the stone was rolled away
    His perfect love could not be overcome
    Now death, where is your sting?
    Our resurrected King has rendered you defeated

    Chorus: Forever He is glorified
    Forever He is lifted high
    Forever He is risen
    He is alive, He is alive!

    Bridge:  We sing hallelujah we sing hallelujah
    We sing hallelujah, the Lamb has overcome!

    And now death, where is your sting?
    Our resurrected King has overcome
    He’s overcome, oh

     

    Christ the Lord is Risen Today

    Christ the Lord is risen today, Alleluia!
    Sons of men and angels say, Alleluia!
    Raise your joys and triumphs high, Alleluia!
    Sing, ye heavens, and earth, reply, Alleluia!

    Lives again our glorious King, Alleluia!
    Where, O death, is now thy sting? Alleluia!
    Once He died our souls to save, Alleluia!
    Where thy victory, O grave? Alleluia!

    Love’s redeeming work is done, Alleluia!
    Fought the fight, the battle won, Alleluia!
    Death in vain forbids His rise, Alleluia!
    Christ hath opened paradise, Alleluia!

    Soar we now where Christ hath led, Alleluia!
    Following our exalted Head, Alleluia!
    Made like Him, like Him we rise, Alleluia!
    Ours the cross, the grave, the skies, Alleluia!

    In Your Kingdom broken lives are made new – You make us new

    The Lord Reigns

    The Lord reigns, let the people shout
    He reigns in righteousness
    Let the heavens be glad, let the earth rejoice
    The Lord reigns, let the people clap their hands
    Angels shout, the redeemed have come to dance
    To celebrate, to celebrate, He reigns

    Chorus:  The Lord reigns, the Lord reigns
    The Lord reigns, we will sing and shout
    You reign, You reign
    You reign, forever King of all

    Bridge:  Let all the people sing of Your awesome pow’r in all the earth
    Let darkness tremble at Your Name
    Why do the nations rage when the King is on His throne?
    Now and forever You will reign

    We are a moment, You are forever
    Lord of the ages, God before time

    Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain

    Taste and See

    O taste and see that the Lord is good
    O taste and see that the Lord is good to me
    You have turned my mourning into dancing
    Put off my rags and clothed me with gladness
    And I will arise and I will praise You
    I’ll sing and not be silent 

    Chorus: O Lord my God I will give thanks to You forever
    O Lord my God I will give thanks to You
    We bless You Lord

    Bridge: I will live only for You
    I will lift these hands up to You
    I will dance before You
    I will shout it I will shout it to You

     

    King of Kings

    In the darkness we were waiting, Without hope without light
    Till from Heaven You came running, There was mercy in Your eyes
    To fulfill the law and prophets, To a virgin came the Word
    From a throne of endless glory, To a cradle in the dirt

    Chorus:  Praise the Father, Praise the Son
    Praise the Spirit three in one
    God of Glory, Majesty
    Praise forever to the King of kings

    To reveal the kingdom coming, And to reconcile the lost
    To redeem the whole creation, You did not despise the cross
    For even in Your suffering, You saw to the other side
    Knowing this was our salvation, Jesus, for our sake You died

    And the morning that You rose, All of heaven held its breath
    Till that stone was moved for good, For the Lamb had conquered death
    And the dead rose from their tombs, And the angels stood in awe
    For the souls of all who’d come, To the Father are restored

    And the Church of Christ was born, Then the Spirit lit the flame
    Now this Gospel truth of old, Shall not kneel shall not faint
    By His blood and in His Name, In His freedom I am free
    For the love of Jesus Christ, Who has resurrected me

    Tag: Praise forever to the King of kings

     

    Here I Am to Worship

    Light of the world, You stepped down into darkness
    Opened my eyes, let me see
    Beauty that made this heart adore You
    Hope of a life spent with You

    Chorus:  So here I am to worship, Here I am to bow down
    Here I am to say that You’re my God
    And You’re altogether lovely, Altogether worthy
    Altogether wonderful to me

    King of all days, Oh, so highly exalted
    Glorious in heaven above
    Humbly You came to the earth You created
    All for love’s sake became poor

    Bridge: And I’ll never know how much it cost to see my sin upon that cross (2X)

      

    I Stand Amazed

    I stand amazed in the presence of Jesus the Nazarene
    And wonder how He could love me, a sinner condemned, unclean

    Chorus:  How marvelous how wonderful, And my song shall ever be
    How marvelous how wonderful, Is my Savior’s love for me

    He took my sins and my sorrows, He made them His very own
    He bore the burden to Calvary and suffered and died alone

    And with the ransomed in glory, His face I at last shall see
    It will be my joy through the ages to sing of His love for me

     

     Be Unto Your Name

    We are a moment, You are forever
    Lord of the ages, God before time
    We are a vapor, You are eternal
    Love everlasting, reigning on high

    Chorus:   Holy, holy, Lord God Almighty
    Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain
    Highest praises, honor and glory
    Be unto Your name, Be unto Your name

    We are the broken, You are the healer
    Jesus, Redeemer, mighty to save
    You are the love song we’ll sing forever
    Bowing before You, blessing Your name
