Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord (x2)
Our God, You reign for–ever
Our hope, our strong Deliv–erer
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God, You do not faint
You won't grow wea–ry
You're the Defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like ea–gles
From everlasting
To everlasting
God you are everlasting
I searched the world but it couldn’t fill me
Man’s empty praise and treasures that fade are never enough
Then You came along and put me back together
And every desire is now satisfied here in your love
Oh there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
I’m not afraid to show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord You’ve seen them all and You still call me friend
‘Cause the God of the mountain is the God of the valley
There’s not a place
Your mercy and grace won’t find me again
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can (x2)
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can
You're the only one who can
How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
That he should give his on–ly son, to make a wretch his treasure
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turned his face away
As wounds which mar the cho–sen one, bring many sons to glo–ry
Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon his shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held him there until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished
I will not boast in an–y–thing: no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Je–sus Christ; his death and resurrection
Why should I gain from his re–ward? I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart: his wounds have paid my ransom
Here I am, down on my knees again
Surrendering all, surrendering all
Find me here, Lord as You draw me near
Desperate for You, desperate for You
I surrender
Drench my soul as mercy and grace unfold
I hunger and thirst, I hunger and thirst
With arms stretched wide I know You hear my cry
Speak to me now, speak to me now
I surrender, I surrender
I want to know You more
I want to know You more
Like a rushing wind, Jesus breathe within
Lord have Your way, Lord have Your way in me
Like a mighty storm, stir within my soul
Lord have Your way, Lord have Your way in me
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
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 it's grip on me
For I am His, and He is Mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
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
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I stand
I find my strength, I find my hope,
I find my help in Christ alone
When fear assails, when darkness falls
I find my peace in Christ alone
I give my life, I give my all,
I sing this song to Christ alone
The King of Kings, the Lord of all
all heaven sings to Christ alone
Purify my heart
Let me be as gold and precious silver
Purify my heart
Let me be as gold, pure gold
Refiner's fire
My heart's one desire
Is to be holy
Set apart for you, Lord
I choose to be holy
Set apart for you my master
Ready to do your will
Purify my heart
Cleanse me from within and make me holy
Purify my heart
Cleanse me from my sin, deep within
