What A Wonderful World

I see trees of green… red roses too
I see them bloom… for me and you
And I think to myself… what a wonderful world.

I see skies of blue… and clouds of white
Bright blessed days…. dark sacred nights
And I think to myself… what a wonderful world.

The colors of a rainbow… so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces… of people passing by
I see friends shaking hands…..sayin’.. how do you do?
They’re really sayin’… I love you.

I hear babies cry… I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more… than I’ll never know
And I think to myself… what a wonderful world

Brahms’ Lullaby

(Johannes Brahms — Celine Dion, Miracle album)

Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day

Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day

Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed
Close your eyes now and rest
May these hours be blessed

Bonne nuit cher enfant
Dans tes langes blanches
Repose joyeux en rêvant des cieux
Quand le jour reviendra
Tu te réveilleras
Quand le jour reviendra
Tu te réveilleras

Lullaby and good night
In the sky stars are bright
Around your head flowers gay
Set your slumbers till day

POINT OF DIFFERENCE
Words and Music by Joel Houston

VERSE 1:
The tide is turning
This is redemption’s hour
In the midst of a world lost for love
You are all we have now
The lost returning
Salvation is all around
In the midst of a world broken down
You are all we have now
You are God
And this hope is ours
So Father

CHORUS:

Open the skies
Flood the earth with Your light
This is love to break a world indifferent
As we lift up our eyes
Fill our hearts with Your fire
In a world the same
We’ll be the different
The difference

VERSE 2:
Our hearts are burning
A fire that won’t burn out
In the midst of a world that’s grown cold
You are all we have now
The earth resounding
The anthem of Your renown
As we lift up our eyes
And look to Your glory

PRE CHORUS:
Call us out
Let the world see You are God
And this hope is ours
Call us out
Let the world see You are God
As we sing

BRIDGE:
Our eyes are open
Every chain now broken
We’re in this world but we are different
Let Your love become us
As we live to make You famous
We’re in this world but we are different

Call us out let the world see You are God
And one and only in this world
You are all we have now

====================

DESPERATE PEOPLE
Words and Music by Joel Houston

You took our place
You offered up Your life
Though we had failed

We seek Your face
We offer up our lives
To bring You praise
A love that walls cannot contain

A living sacrifice we worship You
A people undivided
Lord hear us sing

Desperate for all You are
Lord break down these walls

To leave here entertained
Or worship under any other name
We’re crying out for You alone
You are holy Lord

We’ve found our cause
We’re on our knees
The carpet’s worn
As we join our hearts
With distant shores
And sing to You Lord

====================

DEVOTION
Words and Music by Marty Sampson

VERSE 1:
I’ve been running
Trying to be one who sees
I’ve been working this salvation
Out on my knees
There is nothing better than knowing
We are redeemed

VERSE 2:
I’m believing
Trusting in creative hands
I am praying for our world
To bow to Your plan
And this one thought is unmistakable
To take up my cross
And follow You Lord

CHORUS:
When You stand
The tall trees and mountains bow
When You speak
The fiercest of oceans is still
And I see the sinner seek devotion
The lost become chosen
And I fall to my knees

VERSE 3:
I’m forgiven
By a Saviour who did not deserve death
He was blameless
I was lost in shamefulness
I’m delivered but it doesn’t seem right
Unless I keep my eyes focussed
On the Saviour who gave His life

VERSE 4:
In the middle
Of a world that denies it believes
It is breaking apart at the very seams
There is one thing to be alive for
To take up my cross
And follow You Lord

BRIDGE:
I will take up my cross
And follow Lord where You lead me
I will take up my cross
And follow wherever You go

====================

Where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom

Where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees
Lord I lay me down

Lead me to the cross

You were as I
Tempted and tried human
The word became flesh
Bore my sin in death
Now You’re risen

To Your heart
To Your heart
Lead me to Your heart
Lead me to Your heart

My purpose found
And all that You want for me

SOLUTION
Words and Music by Joel Houston and Matt Crocker

VERSE 1:
It is not a human right
To stare not fight
While broken nations dream
Open up our eyes so blind
That we might find
The mercy for the need

PRE CHORUS:
Hey now
Fill our hearts with Your compassion
Hey now as we hold to our confession

VERSE 2:
It is not too far a cry
Too much to try
And help the least of these
Politics will not decide
If we should rise
And be Your hands and feet

CHORUS:
Woah
God be the solution
Woah
And we will be Your hands
And be Your feet

VERSE 3:
Higher than all circumstance
Your promise stands
Your love for all to see
Higher than our protest lines
And dollar signs
Your love is all we need

BRIDGE:
Only You can mend the broken heart
And cause the blind to see
Erase complete the sinner’s past
And set the captives free
Only You can take the widow’s cry
And cause her heart to sing
Be the Father to the fatherless
Our Saviour and our King

We will be Your hands
We will be Your feet
We will run this race
For the least of these
In the darkest place
We will be Your light
We will be Your light

And we will be Your hands
We will be Your feet
We will run
We will run
We will run with the solution

And I know that I am
I am Yours

I am Yours

You are the rock on which I stand
And as I live each day
I’ll follow You

Unafraid unashamed
Lord we know who we are

And we won’t be silent)
Unified
Hear us cry
At the top of our lungs
(You are our God
And we will not be shaken)

YOU

Who lived to die for me?

You Lord
You Lord
You are Lord

As I look upon You I am changed
Though I fail
Your faithful love remains

Almighty One
There is none like You

You gave me courage to believe
That all Your goodness I would see
And if it had not been for You
Standing on my side where would I be

— Chorus —
If not for Your goodness
If not for Your grace
I don’t know where I would be today
If not for Your kindness
I never could say
I’m still standing
If not for Your mercy
If not for Your love
I most likely would have given up
If not for Your favor
I never could say
I’m still standing
But by the grace of God

To You I lift my offering
And set my heart on higher things
For if it had not been for You
Standing on my side where would I be

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand

I’m still standing (3x)
But by the grace of God

Once far away
Now, I’m here to stay
Close to your heart
When I made mistakes
I thought You’d turn away
But, now I know

You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased

— Chorus —
Now I’m Free
To worship You, Lord
With all of my soul
And everything within me
I’m free to worship You, here
Casting out fear
Your love draws me near
to worship You
Draw me close, Draw me close

Once I believed
I could never be
Close to Your heart
Now, I know the truth
I belong to You
Yes, I know
You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased

Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close
Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear

Draw me close, Draw me close
Now I’m free to lift up my hands
I know who I am
I know I am free to worship
I will not fear, I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close

Your presence a refuge to me
Where I am always welcome
Your arms a resting place
Where I can always go
Your Spirit is calling me
And I answer willingly

— Chorus —
The door to You is open wide
And I am always welcome
Your truth and life I find inside
And I am always welcome
You draw me in to where You dwell
And I’m welcome

Where You are, where You dwell
Where I am always welcome
(Repeat 3X)


IT IS WELL
Traditional

When peace, like a river,
Attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot,
Thou hast taught me to say,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

— Chorus —
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, with my soul,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Oh Lord You’ve searched me
You know my way
Even when I fail You
I know You love me
Your holy presence
Surrounding me
In every season
I know You love me,
I know You love me

— Chorus —
At the cross I bow my knee
Where Your blood was shed for me
There’s no greater love than this
You have overcome the grave
Your glory fills the highest place
What can separate me now

You go before me
You shield my way
Your hand upholds me
And I know You love me

You tore the veil
You made a way
When You said that it is done

And when the earth fades
Falls from my eyes
And You stand before me
I know You love me,
I know You love me

Open the windows of heaven
Pour out a blessing

Pour out a blessing

Love held me closely
And set me free
Carried my weakness to Calvary

Jesus redeemer
You called me friend
Love so amazing
Love til the end

Love so amazing
Love so divine
To call You master
To call You mine
When my heart was broken
You mended me
Love so amazing

Your love for me
Your love strong and true
Your love rich and pure
Your love so complete
How I live for Your love,
I live for Your love for me

YOUR LOVE

Higher than the heavens
Stronger than the sea
Mightier than mountains
Your love amazes me
Sweeter than the sunrise
Tender as my tears
Perfect as Your promise
Singing over me

— Chorus —
Your love
I could never measure
Your love
Ever enduring
Your love
More than I imagine
What can separate me from
Your love

Your endless, enduring love
Your matchless, unfailing love
There’s no limit, no limit to Your love

Nothing can separate me (3x)
From Your love

What does it mean to be saved
Isn’t it more than just a prayer to pray
More than just a way to heaven
What does it mean to be His
To be formed in His likeness
Know that we have a purpose

To be salt and light in the world
In the world
To be salt and light in the world

— Chorus —
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so
Say so, say so

Oh that the church would arise
Oh that we would see with Jesus eyes
We could show the world heaven
Show what it means to be His
To be formed in His likeness
Show them they have a purpose

I am redeemed
I am redeemed

Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up
Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up
Let the redeemed of the Lord rise up
Rise up, rise up

It’s my season
For the favor of the Lord
My soul is thirsty
For an outpour
I am standing on
The promises of God
Everything He has
For me I receive

I am blessed
To be a blessing

— Chorus —
I have a promise
A promise from heaven
It’s my season
It’s my time
For the favor of the Lord

Press down, shaken together
Running over
In the favor of God
Press down, shaken together
Running over, running over
