HOLD FAST
03:27
|
|||
|
I will go now to the Savior
Though the winds may buffet me
For my strength has all but faded
Jesus, now my rescue be
Hold fast to me, hold fast to me
Heaven help me, do not let me go
For I would be adrift at sea
Unless, my Lord, you hold fast to me
When the clouds, my eyes have covered
When I’m miles away from shore
When I’m weak and going under
I will call upon the Lord
You are strong and You are able
You are good and You are faithful
You’re the master of the wind and of the waves
And if the storm keeps raging
You are the God unchanging
I will not fear, You are the God who saves
|

SING YOUR NAME
03:12
|
|||
|
When hope cannot be found
And all I see is pain
When storms are all around
I’ll look up and sing your name
When tears are all I know
When joy seems far away
There’s nowhere else to go
I’ll take heart and sing your name
Jesus, Jesus, forever strong to save
In hope, in fear, in joy, in pain
My God, I’ll sing Your name
When every path is clear
When blessings come my way
For the all the world to hear
O God, I’ll sing Your name
You never fail, You never change
O, You remain my Savior

THIS WAS HIS PLAN
03:49
|
|||
|
Frightened girl on her own, confused by what she heard the angel say
Could it be, after so long, that Messiah would come
And He’d come as a babe
Frightened boy, sleepless night, wondering how this could be
She with child, not yet His wife, no way to hide
Everyone would see
They trusted God and obeyed
Believing that this baby would save
This was the way, this was His plan
Though it was hard to understand
God of creation, here in a manger
A stable would hold the great I Am
This was His plan
Such surprise, the way He came; everyone was looking for a king
But the Father moves in His own way and He chose a manger
To change everything
The baby born on that dark night
Came to give us new life
Nothing would be the same
Emmanuel was His name

O, CHURCH OF GOD
03:38
|
|||
|
O, church of God, lift up Your eyes
The time for joy has come
Do not lose heart, remember now
The wondrous things He’s done
When we were lost and broken down
We could not find our way
He sent His son, the gift of love
And by that blood we’re saved
O, church of God, He is faithful
And to His bride, The Lord is good
O, lift Him high for countless ages
Adore Him and declare it now as one
O, church of God
O, church of God, fear not the wind
Fear not the wiles of man
He does not fear, He does not fail
Against Him none can stand
His way is truth, His path is might
He’s sovereign over all
As He has been, He still shall be
The undefeated one
O, church of God, rise up and say
Sing it loud and strong
“Our King is good, for He has won
And He is on the throne!”
(Great and mighty things the Lord has done)

CAN'T STOP JESUS
03:40
|
|||
|
When you’re facing down a mountain you can’t climb
Worried that the Lord won’t make it on time
Open up His Word and you will see
He’s the undefeated God of history
Well, you can’t stop Jesus, you can’t stop the Lord
He ain’t never gonna’ be defeated, He ain’t never been beaten before
You can’t stop Jesus, many have tried but no one’s done it yet
Put him on a cross and put him in a grave, but He’ll rise up anyway
You can’t stop Jesus
When you’re thinking that your miracle won’t come
Count your blessings, name them one by one
If the world couldn’t keep Him in that grave
You better believe that help is on the way
Death couldn’t hold him, no no
Grave couldn't hold him, no no
Satan couldn’t hold him, no no
He’s the King of Kings
Nothing’s gonna’ stop him, echo
Nothing’s gonna’ top him, echo
Nothing gonna’ beat Him, echo
So lift Your voice and sing

CAN'T SEE
05:00
|
|||
|
When my heart breaks, when I can’t make sense
When my eyes fail to see how good You’ve been
Help me remember that I’m Yours forever
You know my needs
Help me remember that You are the treasure,
My everything
I know You see me, You catch every tear that I cry
I know You’re with me, every day of my life
I’m holding on to the promise You made to me
Even when I can’t see
In my struggle, You are my strength, O God
You are faithful, I know I’m not alone
Time after time You have proven that You never leave
The hands that are holding the world are holding me
|

WE PRAY
03:57
|
|
||
|
V1
We pray for the heart that’s broken, far away from home
Running from the truth and so alone, send Your hope
We pray when the doctors say they don’t know what to do
And all that we can do is cry to You, would you move?
C
All of our hope is You and You alone
Move, mighty God! We trust You
Heaven and earth, You hold in Your hands
Hear, mighty God! We ask You
V2
We pray even though we’ve run out of the words to say
When we’re worried and too tired to be brave, You remain
We pray because we’ve seen the miracles You’ve done
Every need we come and lift them up, You’re enough
V3
We pray, knowing that Your Word will be our guide
And even in the darkness, You will shine, Your ways are high

MY GOD IS GOOD
03:01
|
|||
|
I can’t deny I’ve been through the storm, through the fire, and it’s been hard
You may see me cry, but don’t get it wrong
I ain’t nothing but thankful for what the Lord has done
He’s good and He is faithful
That’s why I sing this song
God is good, He’s oh so good
I will say it again and again
He’s faithful to the end (I know that)
God is good, He’s always good
Though hard times will come and go
This one thing I know, my God is good
(I’ve) seen it first hand, all He can do, so many times He’s seen me through
There’s no one like Him, so loving and true
When my hope is fading, I remember this
He has never failed me
I’ve seen His faithfulness
He’s working in the wondering
He’s moving in the mystery
I don’t have to worry cause
He’s right here with me

MERCY ALONE
02:58
|
|||
|
When I was far, He brought me near
He knew just the words I longed to hear
He took the worst things I had done and nailed them to a cross
With love He washed every single stain
Though I was torn, He never turned away
He said I was His forever, to never again would be lost
I was a rebel, far from home
Those prison songs all I could sing
Now I’m a debtor to mercy alone
My life, my all for my King
Now I am free, my shame is gone
And every morning brand new mercy dawns
All my crimes have been forgiven, forgiven by His blood

SON OF GOD
03:22
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
Behold the Lamb who comes to save
Clothed in justice and in grace
High and holy Heaven’s son
Marred by sin the Perfect One
We drove the nails of sin and shame
Into the Hands of God that day
But from the fall you would reclaim
This dying world by being slain
CHORUS
Now the Darkness has no Power
Death and Satan they are destroyed
Hell is beaten, You have Risen
Son of God
VERSE 2
Sorrow reigned for three long days
but ended with an empty grave
Hope that’s lost is now restored
You’re alive O Christ the Lord
VERSE 3
You’ll come again that Glorious Day
Saints will gather round to sing
Worthy is our servant King
Enthroned now You forever reign
|

INSTEAD
03:29
|
|||
|
He could have come from money, He could have had a throne
Maybe from a famous family that everyone would know
In nothing but a stable, didn’t even have a crib
That night He had a manger instead
See we thought He’d come like a king with a throne and a scepter in His hand
But He came like a whisper in the still of the night
We were lost and there was no way we could save ourselves
So He took our place instead
He could have stayed in Heaven and left us to ourselves
He could have watched in silence as we cried for help
He could have left us in our sin there and let it lead us to our death
But He chose the cross instead
The only crown He wore was the pain and the shame of scars and thorns
But He lived to come and lay down His life
We were lost and we deserved the price of guilt and sin
But He gave us His grace instead
Now saints and angels sing out glory, glory to the Lamb
Worthy is the One who shed His precious blood
We should be singing songs of grief and brokenness alone
But one day we’ll see Him face to face
And we’ll lift a thankful song of praise instead
|
||||
12. |
NO OTHER NAME
03:46
|
|||
|
There’s not a greater name to proclaim than Jesus
There’s not a greater song we can sing than Jesus
At the name of Jesus, we bow down and worship now (we sing it loud)
Worthy is the One who came and set us free
No other name is any higher, no other one came out of that grave
Only the Lamb of God the Holy One could wash our sins away
Every tribe and tongue nation now join their voice to praise
Jesus, Son of God! There’s no other name!
There’s not an end to his power and might, Jesus
Only His blood brings the dead back life, Jesus
At the name of Jesus, we rejoice because His love has rescued us
Worthy is the One who came and set us free
We lift Him up, we lift Him up
Lift up the name, lift up the name
(of Jesus)

HOLDING ON
03:17
|
|||
|
I know you’ve been walking a long, lonely road, You’re searching for answers, with nowhere to go
Hoping this hurting won’t last all night long, Waiting for morning, new mercies to come
Feels like He's left you all on your own, but our God is able, He never lets go
He’s faithful, Your Shepherd, peace in the storm
Everlasting, shelter from harm
He’s good and He’s mighty
You’re not alone
You are His and He’s holding on
Time after time, He’s proven His love
When you were down to nothing, He was more than enough
When worry and fear is all that you know
Stop and remember that He’s in control
He’s got a reason for what You’re going through
There is no limit to what He can do
He’s holding on, He won’t let go
