“10,000 Reasons”
~Jonas Myrin and Matt Redman
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Oh my soul, Worship your holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul
I’ll worship your holy name
The sun comes up, It’s a new day dawning
It’s time to sing your song again
Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Oh my soul, Worship your holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul
I’ll worship your holy name
You’re rich in love and your slow to anger
Your name is great and your heart is kind
For all your goodness, I will keep on singing
ten-thousand reasons for my heart to find
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Oh my soul, Worship your holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul
I’ll worship your holy name
And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still, my soul will sing your praise unending
Ten-thousand years and then forever more
Bless the Lord, O my soul
Oh my soul, Worship your holy name
Sing like never before, O my soul
I’ll worship your holy name
“Blessed Be Your Name”
~Matt and Beth Redman
Blessed be your name
in the land that is plentiful
Where your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
When I’m found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out I’ll
Turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
Blessed be your name
When the sun’s shining down on me
And the world’s all as it should be
Blessed be your name
Blessed be your name
On the road marked with suffering
Though there’s pain in the offering
Blessed be your name
Every blessing you pour out I’ll
Turn back to praise
When the darkness closes in Lord
Still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
You give and take away
You give and take away
My heart will choose to say
Lord, blessed be your name
(2x)
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be your glorious name
(2x)
“Great is the Lord”
~Michael W. Smith
Great is the Lord, he is holy and just
by his power we trust in his love.
Great is the Lord, he is faithful and true,
by his mercy he proves he is love.
Great is the Lord, and worthy of glory!
Great is the Lord, and worth of praise.
Great is the Lord; now lift up your voice,
now lift up your voice:
Great is the Lord! (x2)
Great is the Lord, he is holy and just
by his power we trust in his love.

Great are you, Lord; I lift up my voice,
I lift up my voice:
Great are you, Lord! (x2)
“HALLELUJAH”
~Johnnyswim
I'm falling I'm falling come catch me you can't make me wait
Stars in the heavens watch out 'cause I'm headed their way
You came for me and made me new
For all of my days I will give You the praise that you do
Hallelu-hallelu-hallelu-hallelujah (2x)

“Hold US Together”
~Matt Maher & Steve Wilson
It don’t have a job
It don’t pay your bills
Won't buy you a home in Beverly Hills.
Won't fix your life
in five easy steps.
Ain't the law of the land
or the government.
But it's all you need...
And love will hold us together
make us a shelter to weather the storm.
And I'll be my brother's keeper
so the whole world will know that we're not alone.
It's waiting for you
Knockin' at your door
in the moment of truth
when your heart hits the floor
and your on your knees...
And love will hold us together
make us a shelter to weather the storm.
And I'll be my brother's keeper
so the whole world will know that we're not alone.
This is the first day of the rest of your life
This is the first day of the rest of your life
‘Cause even in the dark you can still see the light
It's gonna be alright,
It's gonna be alright.
(Repeat)
And love will hold us together
make us a shelter to weather the storm.
And I'll be my brother's keeper
so the whole world will know that we're not alone.
“Holy Spirit”

There's nothing worth more that will ever come close
Nothing can compare, You're our living Hope

Where my heart becomes free and my shame is undone

Nothing can compare, You're our living Hope
Your presence, Lord
I've tasted and seen of the sweetest of loves
Where my heart becomes free and my shame is undone
In your presence, Lord
Holy Spirit, you are welcome here

“Indescribable”
~Chris Tomlin
From the highest of heights to the depths of the sea
Creation's revealing Your majesty
From the colors of fall to the fragrance of spring
Every creature unique in the song that it sings
All exclaiming
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
Who has told every lightning bolt where it should go
Or seen heavenly storehouses laden with snow
Who imagined the sun and gives source to its light
Yet conceals it to bring us the coolness of night
None can fathom.
Indescribable, uncontainable,
You placed the stars in the sky and You know them by name.
You are amazing God
All powerful, untameable,
Awestruck we fall to our knees as we humbly proclaim
You are amazing God
(Repeat)
“In Your Midst”
~Allie Paige
I come to sit at your feet
To drink from the fountain of life
How it satisfies
No where else do I want to be
The warmth of your heart is enough
It’s enough for me
Oh I’ve come to have
Communion with the king
To sit at the table and dine
With the highest priest
Oh, to know, just what’s on your mind
The secrets of Heaven
I’ll live to search, to find
So hide me deep inside your heart, Lord
Cover me with your wings
Bring me into safety
Bring me into fellowship with who you are, Lord
Father, Son, and Spirit
This is all I long for
I come to sit at Your feet
To drink from the fountain of life
How it satisfies
Nowhere else do I want to be
The warmth of your heart is enough
It’s enough for me
So hide me deep inside your heart, Lord
Cover me with your wings
Bring me into safety
Bring me into fellowship with who you are, Lord
Father, Son, and Spirit
This is all I long for
This my heart’s desire
To know you and be known
To know you and be known
(2x)
This my heart’s desire
To know you and be known
To know you and be known by you Jesus
So hide me deep inside your heart, Lord
Cover me with your wings
Bring me into safety
Bring me into fellowship with who you are, Lord
Father, Son, and Spirit
This is all I long for (repeat)
“Let the Rain of your Presence”
~Bishop Clarence McClendon, Jacque DeShetler (lyrics)
Let the rain of your presence fall on me.
Ev’ry day that I live
With ev’ry breath I breathe
Let the rain of your presence fall on me.
Ev’ry where that I go,
Lord, let your presence flow, rain on me.
(Repeat)
Love divine, Joy unspeakable
Over flowing in my soul,
This heart of mine,
Is refreshed and at rest,
In your presence, In your presence.
(Repeat)
Let the rain of your presence fall on me.
Ev’ry day that I live
With ev’ry breath I breathe
Let the rain of your presence fall on me.
Ev’ry where that I go,
Lord, let your presence flow, rain on me.
“Lord I Need You”
~Matt Maher
Lord I come, I confess
Bowing here, I find my rest
Without You, I fall apart
You're the one that guides my heart
Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour, I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You
Where sin runs deep, Your grace is more
Where grace is found is where You are
And where You are, Lord, I am free
Holiness is Christ in me
Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour, I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You
So teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand, I'll fall on You
Jesus, You're my hope and stay
Lord, I need You, oh, I need You
Every hour, I need You
My one defense, my righteousness
Oh God, how I need You
“Love Like This”
~Lauren Daigle
When I am a wasteland
You are the water
When I am the winter
You are the fire that burns
When I am a long night
You are the sunrise
When I am a desert
You are the river that turns
To find me
What have I done to deserve love like this?
What have I done to deserve love like this?
Your voice like a whisper
Breaking the silence
You say there's a treasure and
You look 'till you find it
You search to find me
What have I done to deserve love like this?
What have I done to deserve love like this?
I cannot earn what You so freely give
What have I done to deserve love like this?
“MULTIPLIED”
~NEEDTOBREATHE
Your love is like radiant diamonds
Burst inside us, we cannot contain
Your love will surely come find us
Like blazing wildfires, singing Your name
God of mercy, sweet love of mine
I have surrendered to Your design
May this offering stretch across the sky
These hallelujahs be multiplied
(Repeat)
“O Lord, our Lord, how majestic”
~Michael W. Smith
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic
Is your name in all the earth!
(Repeat)
O Lord, we praise your name.
O Lord, we magnify your name:
Prince of peace, mighty God;
O Lord God almighty!
(Repeat all)
“On Eagles Wings”
~Michael Joncas
You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
Who abide in His shadow for life,
Say to the Lord: "My refuge,
My rock in whom I trust!"
And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
The Snare of the Flower will never capture you,
And famine will bring you no fear;
Under his wings your refuge,
His faithfulness your shield
And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
For to his angels he’s given a command,
To guard you in all of your ways;
Upon their hands they will bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone
And he will raise you up on eagle's wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
And hold you in the palm of His hand.
“So Will I”
~Hillsong United
God of creation
There at the start
Before the beginning of time
With no point of reference
You spoke to the dark
And fleshed out the wonder of life
And as you speak
A hundred billion galaxies are born
In the vapor of your breath the planets form
If the stars were made to worship,
So will I
I can see Your heart in everything You’ve made
Every burning star
A signal fire of grace
If creation sings your praises
So will I
God of Your promise
You don’t speak in vain
No syllable empty or void
For once you have spoken
All nature and science
Follows the sound of your voice
And as You speak
A hundred billion creatures catch Your breath
Evolving in pursuit of what You’ve said
If it all reveals Your nature
So will I
I can see Your heart in everything You say
Every painted sky
A canvas of your grace
If creation still obeys you
So will I
If the stars were made to worship, So will I
If the mountains bow in reverence, So will I
If the oceans roar Your greatness, So will I
For if everything exists to lift you high, So will I
If the wind goes where You send it, So will I
If the rocks cry out in silence, So will I
If the sum of all our praises still falls shy
Then we’ll sing again a hundred billion times
God of salvation
You chased down my heart
Through all of my failures and pride
On a hill you created
The light of the world
Abandoned in darkness to die
And as You speak,
A hundred billion failures disappear
Where You lost Your life so I could find it here
If You left the grave behind You
So will I
I can see Your heart in everything You’ve done
Every part designed in a work of art called love
If You gladly chose surrender
So will I
I can see Your heart 8 billion different ways
Every precious one a child you died to save
If You gave Your life to love them
So will I
Like You would again a hundred billion times
But what measure could amount to Your desire
You’re the One who never leaves the one behind
“Still Rolling Stones”
~Lauren Daigle
Out of the shadows
Bound for the gallows
A dead man walking
Till love came calling
Rise up (Rise up)
Rise up (Rise up)
Six feet under
I thought it was over
An answer to prayer
The voice of a Savior
Rise up (Rise up)
Rise up (Rise up)
All at once I came alive
This beating heart, these open eyes
The grave let go
The darkness should have known
You're still rolling stones
You're still rolling stones
Now that You saved me
I sing 'cause You gave me
A song of revival
I put it on vinyl
Rise up (Rise up)
Rise up (Rise up)
I once was blinded
But now I see it
I heard about the power
And now I believe it
Rise up (Rise up)
Rise up (Rise up)
All at once I came alive
This beating heart, these open eyes
The grave let go
The darkness should have known
You're still rolling stones
You're still rolling stones
I thought that I was too far gone
For everything I've done wrong
Yeah, I'm the one who dug this grave
But You called my name
You called my name
(Repeat)
All at once I came alive
This beating heart, these open eyes
The grave let go
The darkness should have known
You're still rolling stones
You're still rolling stones
“Turning Over Tables”
~The Brilliance
Fear runs deep, spreading like a virus
Hate is cheap, from afar it costs you nothing
Sister take my hand, brother we will stand
Open up your hearts and find
Love is turning over tables, breaking off chains
When I see you in a stranger, I’m no longer a slave
Turning over tables, tearing down walls
Building up the bridges between us all
Oh oo oo ooooo o oooooo
Let courage be my willingness to listen
So I can feel the wound inside my heart
Let seeds of peace grow in hearts around us
That trees of hope give shade to all (hu)mankind
Sister take my hand, brother we will stand
Open up our hearts and find
Love is turning over tables, breaking off chains
When I see you in a stranger, I’m no longer a slave
Turning over tables, tearing down walls
Building up the bridges between us all
When will we stand for love?
When will we stand for love?
When will we stand for love?
(repeat)
Love is turning over tables, breaking off chains
When I see you in a stranger, I’m no longer a slave
Turning over tables, tearing down walls
Building up the bridges between us all
Oh oo oo ooooo o oooooo
“Words To Build A Life On ”
~by Mike Crawford ©2004
Refrain:
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words how can they be mine
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words I want them to be mine
Blessed are the poor,
Blessed are the weak
Blessed are the ones
Who can barely speak
Blessed in your hurt
Blessed in your pain
Blessed when your teardrops
Are falling down like rain
Blessed when you’re broken
Blessed when you’re blind
Blessed when you’re fragile
When you have lost your mind
Blessed when you’re desperate
Blessed when you’re scared
Blessed when you’re lonely
Blessed when you’ve failed
Blessed when you’re beat up
Blessed when you’re bruised
Blessed when you’re tore down
Blessed when you’re used
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words how can they be mine
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words I want them to be mine
Blessed when you’re heartbroke
Blessed when you’re fired
Blessed when you’re choked up
Blessed when you’re tired
Blessed when the plans
That you so carefully laid
End up in the junkyard
With all the trash you made
Blessed when you feel like
Giving up the ghost
Blessed when your loved ones
Are the ones who hurt you most
Blessed when you lose your
Own identity
Then blessed when you find it
And it has been redeemed
Blessed when you see what
Your friends can never be
Blessed with your eyes closed
Then Blessed you see Me
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words how can they be mine
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words I want them to be mine
Blessed when you’re hungry
Blessed when you thirst
Cause that’s when you will eat of
The bread that matters most
Blessed when you’re put down
Because of me you’re dissed
Because of me you’re kicked out
They take you off their list
You know you’re on the mark
You know you’ve got it right
You are to be my salt
You are to be my light
So bring out all the flavour
In the feast of this My world
And light up all the colours
Let the banners be unfurled
Shout it from the rooftops
Let the trumpets ring
Sing your freaking lungs out
Jesus Christ is King!
Jesus is my Saviour
Jesus is divine
Jesus is my answer
Jesus is my life
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words how can they be mine
These are words to build a life on
These are Your words I want them to be mine
(Repeat)
Give us ears that we may hear them
voice that we may sing them
life that we may live them
hope that we may give them
hearts that we can feel them
eyes that we can see them
thoughts that we may think them
tongues that we may speak Your words
Your words
These are Your words
I want them to be mine
Be mine
Be mine
“You are My All in All”
~Dennis Jernigan
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God,
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God,
Worthy is Your name
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising again, I bless your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down, you pick me up
When I am dry, you fill my cup
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God,
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God,
Worthy is Your name
“You Never Let Go”
~Matt Redman
Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back, I know You are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles, But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles,
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You
(REPEAT)
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me
You never let, You never let go
You never let go of me
