Above All

icon_ltgray_open_quoteVerse 1
Above all powers
Above all kings
Above all nature
And all created things
Above all wisdom
And all the ways of man
You were here
Before the world began

Verse 2
Above all kingdoms
Above all thrones
Above all wonders
The world has ever known
Above all wealth
And treasures of the earth
There’s no way to measure
What You’re worth

CHORUS
Crucified
Laid behind the stone
You lived to die
Rejected and alone
Like a rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

Like the rose
Trampled on the ground
You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

You took the fall
And thought of me
Above all

Tunnel vision?

Everything was done…

icon_ltgray_open_quoteBefore the world began
You were on His mind
And every tear you cry
Is precious in His eyes
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you would come

Nothing you can do
Could make Him love you more
And nothing that you’ve done
Could make Him close the door
Because of His great love
He gave His only Son
Everything was done
So you would come

Come to the Father
Though your gift is small
Broken hearts, broken lives
He will take them all
The power of the Word
The power of His blood
Everything was done
So you would comeicon_ltgray_close_quote

One Way!

icon_ltgray_open_quoteI lay my life down at your feet
You’re the only one i need
I turn to you and you are always there

In troubled times its you i seek
I put you first thats all i need
I humble all i am, All to you

One way
Jesus
You’re the only one that i could live for
One Way
Jesus
You’re the only one that i could live for

You are always, always there
Every how and everywhere
Your grace abounds so deeply within me

You wil never ever change
Yesterday today the same
Forever till forever meets no end

One way
Jesus
You’re the only one that i could live for
One Way
Jesus
You’re the only one that i could live for

You are the way the truth and the light
We live by faith and not by sight … for you
We’re living all for you.

What you believe…

On a wet, dark, Saturday night…
A sobering reminder about the mortality of life. About even how to love, and love with God’s real love. Dedication, to wash, cook, feed, care, love and pray for four years till finally God calls home, for 365 days a year, 12 years – flowers in front of a photo, of the one that is loved, dearly departed. Twice a year to the gravesite. Yet help so many others, still so happy. Finally in heaven reunited.

icon_ltgray_open_quote God sent His Son
They called Him Jesus
He came to love, head and forgive
He lived and died to buy my pardon
An empty grave is there to prove
My savior lives

Because He Lives
I can face tomorrow
Because He Lives
All fear is gone
Because I know
He holds the future
And life is worth the living
Just because He Lives

And one day
I’ll cross the river
I’ll fight Life’s final war with pain
And then as death gives way to victory
I’ll see the lights of glory
And I’ll know He Lives

That place again…

My heart is captivated Lord, by You alone
Captured by the awesomeness of You alone
Melted by the grace and mercy You have shown
I stand in wonder

I reach to you the one who makes the blind eyes see
Who breaks the chains of sickness with authority
Restoring of what was broken
So we may fly again

I live to worship you
I breathe to worship to you
All of my days, your face I’ll seek

For as I worship you
You lead me to that place
To that place of divine exchange

A packed Sunday…

icon_ltgray_open_quote 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

Here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that You’re my God
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

I’ll never know how much it cost
To see my sin upon that cross
