Why Don't We

If the Father is quick to love, quick to love why aren’t we?
If the Father is quick to love, quick to love why aren’t we?
We who have had much forgiven
Should give as we receive
But we withhold amazing grace
And shame the wretch like me
If the father’s quick to love, why aren’t we?
If the Spirit comes in peace, comes in peace why don’t we?
If the Spirit comes in peace, comes in peace why don’t we?
We who have been reconciled
Should love our enemies
But we’re too consumed by wrongs and rights
To see both sides of things
If the Spirit comes in peace, why don’t we?
If the Son laid down his pow’r, laid down his pow’r why won’t we?
If the Son laid down his pow’r, laid down his pow’r why won’t we?
He who chose to spend his days
Among the least of these
He who breathed his dying breath
Hung between two thieves
He who sits upon the throne
Is He who washed our feet
If the Son laid down his pow’r, why won’t we?
If the Spirit comes in peace, why don’t we?
If the Father is quick to love, then why aren’t we?

Have Mercy

Most Merciful God
So much has gone wrong
In the evil we spoken
In the good we’ve not done
Heavy the darkness hangs on us
Will you turn the light back on?
Have Mercy on us
Have Mercy, Lord
Most merciful God
Too long we’ve been blind
To the pain of the people
This world leaves behind
Heavy the darkness hangs on us
Will you turn the light back on?
Have Mercy on us
Have Mercy, Lord
For the sake of Your Son
Jesus Christ
Forgive all our sins
That we would delight
In your will and walk in your ways and live …
To the glory of your name
Have mercy, Lord
Most merciful God
Teach us to love
To give to our neighbor
As you’ve given to us
Heavy the thorn upon His head
Love is a life laid down
Have Mercy on us
Have Mercy, Lord

In Everything

Feet on the grass, I’m listening
I see you now in everything
The fire, the stars, the blazing sun all say it’s true
When I see the light, I am seeing you.
When I see the light, I am seeing you.
A still small voice, your frequency
Resonates in the deepest part of me
The wind, the storm, the mourning dove all say it’s true
When I hear their song, I am hearing you.
When I hear their song, I am hearing you.
In everything, in everything
I see you
A hand in mine, I’m not alone
And it’s alright to need someone
A kindred heart, a mother’s arms all say it’s true
When I’m holding on, I’m holding onto you
When I’m holding on, I’m holding onto you…
In everything, in everything
I see you
A broken jar, a fragrant room
She spends it all to honor you
Nothing wasted, nothing more that I can do
When I give it all, I am loving you
When I give it all, I am loving you
In everything, in everything
I see you

An Honest Word
04:01
|
|

|
I don’t have a victory song
I’m not beating any holy battle drums
It’s taking all the strength I’ve got
Just to put one foot in front
Of the other
I can’t swing a heavy sword
Like David I threw off the old kings clothes of war
I’m standing in the streets like an orphan looking for
her mother
All I have to give now is surrender
As if I even could put up a fight
I don’t think you need one more defender
it’s enough to be your child
When my praises flowed like tears
When the honey dried up in the famine years
You were standing there, you are standing here
Both sides of the river
All I have to give now is surrender
As if I even could put up a fight
I don’t think you need one more defender
it’s enough to be your child
A victory song, a heavy sword
These are not the offerings you’re asking for
But a humble heart and an honest word
You want a humble heart and an honest word

Jesus Is
04:44

I may be troubled
And full of care
But I not broken
Beyond repair
When i am worried, i cling to this
I am no savior but Jesus Is
I may be walking
The road of pain
But he will guide me
Along the way
So i’ll keep singing ‘cause even if
I am no shepherd, Jesus is
Jesus is
Jesus is
When no one helped me
Jesus did
So I’ll keep singing ‘cause even if
I am no shepherd, Jesus is
I may be lonely
Without a friend
But I will carry
My heart to Him
He knows my sorrow, my grief is His
I am no healer, but Jesus is
Jesus is
Jesus is
When no one heard me
My Jesus did
He knows my sorrow, my grief is His
I am no healer, but Jesus is
My eyes are weary
The night is long
But I’ll wait for Jesus
Until he comes
To reign forever, world without end
I’m not so patient but Jesus is
Jesus is
Jesus is
So I’ll keep waiting
Like Jesus did
He'll reign forever, world without end
I’m not so patient but Jesus is
I am no savior, but Jesus is

Hope Has Come Near
04:19

Hope has come near us
Old ways set aside
Helping us see more than we see with our eyes
Hope has gone running on ahead of our fears
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Hope has come near
Every good story
Has a little suspense
Where do we go, when we don’t know how it ends?
Blessed assurance
I’m not in control
Hope is ever holding,
Hope is ever holding, and not letting go
Follow the evidence
To a place of our own
Trace the thread again
Hope’s still leading us home
So pull back the curtains,
And walk through the walls
Broken but healed, new life revealed to us all
Land of the living, is never too far
Hope has come to meet us,
right where we are.
Follow the evidence
To a place of our own
Trace the thread again
Hope’s still leading us home (two counts on home then pause)
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Bringing back the good news
Hope has come near
