THE POWER OF YOUR LOVE
By Darlene Zschech
Lord I come to You Let my heart be changed, renewed
Flowing from the grace That I’ve found in You Lord I’ve come to know
The weaknesses I see in me Will be stripped away
By the power of Your love
Hold me close Let Your love surround me
Bring me near Draw me to Your side
And as I wait I’ll rise up like the eagle And I will soar with You Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love
Lord unveil my eyes Let me see You face to face The knowledge of Your love
As You live in me Lord renew my mind
As Your will unfolds in my life In living every day
By the power of Your love
(repeat chorus twice)
And I will soar with You Your Spirit leads me on
In the power of Your love.

Broken I run to You for Your arms are open wide
I am weary but I know Your touch restores my life so I'll wait for You //
I'm falling on my knees
offering all of me Jesus, You're all this heart is living for
Oh, I'm falling on my knees offering all of me
Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

ONCE AGAIN By Tim Hughes
And once again I look upon the cross where You died
I'm humbled by Your mercy and I'm broken inside Once again I thank You
Once again I pour out my life
Jesus Christ, I think upon Your sacrifice You became nothing, poured out to death
Many times I've wondered at Your gift of life And I'm in that place once again
I'm in the place once again
And once again I look upon the cross where You died I'm humbled by Your mercy and I'm broken inside
Once again I thank You Once again I pour out my life
Now You are exalted to the highest place
King of the heavens, where one day I'll bow But for now I marvel at Your saving grace
And I'm full of praise once again I'm full of praise once again
Thank You for the cross Thank You for the cross
Thank you for the cross, my friend
BLESSED BE YOUR NAME
By Tree63
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 When 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
(Repeat chorus twice)
You give and take away You give and take away
My heart will choose to say Lord, blessed be Your name

DAYS OF ELIJAH
By Paul Wilbur
These are the days of Elijah Declaring the Word of the Lord
And these are the days of your servant Moses Righteousness being restored
And though these are days of great trials Of famine and darkness and sword
Still we are the voice in the desert crying Prepare ye the way of the Lord!
Behold He comes! Riding on the clouds! Shining like the sun! At the trumpet call Lift your voice! It's the year of Jubilee! And out of Zion's hill salvation comes!
And these are the days of Ezekiel The dry bones becoming as flesh
And these are the days of your servant David Rebuilding a temple of praise
And these are the days of the harvest The fields are as white in the world
And we are the labourers in your vineyard Declaring the word of the Lord!

THE HEART OF WORSHIP
By Matt Redman
When the music fades All is stripped away And I simply come
Longing just to bring Something that's of worth That will bless Your heart
I'll bring You more than a song For a song in itself
Is not what You have required You search much deeper within Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart
I'm coming back to the heart of worship And it's all about You,
It's all about You, Jesus I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it
When it's all about You, It's all about You, Jesus
King of endless worth No one could express
How much You deserve Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is Yours Every single breath
I'll bring You more than a song For a song in itself
Is not what You have required You search much deeper within Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart (Repeat Chorus Twice)

IN CHRIST ALONE
By Phillip, Craig and Dean
In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All Here in the love of Christ I stand
In Christ Alone, who took on flesh Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness Scorned by the ones He came to save
'Til on that cross as Jesus died The wrath of God was satisfied For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain Then bursting forth in glorious day Up from the grave he rose again
And as He stands in victory Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine Bought with the precious blood of Christ
In Christ alone I place my trust And find my glory in the power
of the cross In every victory let it be said of me
My source of strength My source of hope
In Christ alone I place my trust And find my glory in the power
of the cross In every victory let it be said of me
My source of strength My source of hope
In Christ alone
No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny No power of hell, no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from His Hand
'til He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.

DID YOU FEEL THE MOUNTAINS TREMBLE?
By Delirious?
Did you feel the mountains tremble? Did you hear the oceans roar?
When the people rose to sing of Jesus Christ the risen one
Did you feel the people tremble? Did you hear the singers roar? When the lost began to sing of
Jesus Christ the risen one
And we can see that God you're moving A mighty river through the nations
And young and old will turn to Jesus Fling wide your heavenly gates
Prepare the way of the risen Lord
Open up the doors and let the music play Let the streets resound with singing
Songs that bring your hope Songs that bring your joy
Dancers who dance upon injustice
Did you feel the darkness tremble? When all the saints join in one song And all the streams flow as one river
To wash away our brokeness And here we see that God you're moving
A time of Jubilee is coming When young and old return to Jesus
Fling wide your heavenly gates Prepare the way of the risen Lord
And we can see… (Repeat chorus)

PSALM 112
By 4Him
We only get so many times to ride around this sun
And so many times to see a full moon shine When day is done if anything's worth doing
Then it's worth doing right So I looked for wisdom on how to best live this brief life I have found
Blessed is he who fears the Lord
Who finds delight in His commands Blessed is he who fears the Lord
Who finds delight in His commands
I guess that we all gamble on some truth to guide our days
And we trust that it will bring us joy and meaning On the way
I've got friends who feel betrayed by all the things They once believed
So with everything I've seen I've gotta say It seems to me
(Repeat Chorus)
