Lyrics:

VERSE 1
I've wasted so much time
Holding onto what was never mine
When You, You are all I need
I've spent so many days
Chasing after what can't remain
When You, You are all I need

CHORUS
Nothing compares to knowing You
Nothing I find can change my mind
Nothing compares to knowing You, God
You alone satisfy

VERSE 2
I've searched throughout this life
For something to fill me inside
When You, You are all I need
I've built castles of sand
That have crumbled between my own hands
When You, You are all I need

BRIDGE
You are my first love, draw me near
Don't let me forget why I'm here
Take all the things that interfere
And let them fade away

Lyrics:

VERSE 1 
If I belong here, then you do too
If your spirit's heavy, we'll make it through
If you've got wisdom to share, then I'm all ears
If you need room to stretch your wings, you've got it here

PRE-CHORUS
Hold us together
Christ our center

CHORUS
Brick by brick, stone by stone
Bit by bit, a temple and home
No longer strangers, No longer alone
God builds us brick by brick and stone by stone

VERSE 2
If I'm rejoicing, will you celebrate too
If I need to hear it, will you speak the truth
If I am broken, will you hold my tears
If you and God are for me, why should I fear

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
A whisper in the garden
An echo in the flood
A ringing through the desert
You were singing over us

PRE-CHORUS
Through the pages, through the ages
Ever always loud and clear

CHORUS
Your plan was love
Your plan was hope
A mystery written in the stars
A promise sealed with painful scars
Your plan was grace
Your plan was good
As a whole and at the heart
Your plan was love from the start

VERSE 2
It lingered through the exile
The prophets made it known
And in a simple stable
You came down to seek Your own

BRIDGE
Not for a cold religion
Not for a list of rules
It was for freedom that You set us free
Upon a hill for us to see

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
Who will take me as I am
A rebel inside, broken and blind
Who can make me whole again
No one but You oh Lord

CHORUS
My beautiful
Wonderful risen King
In splendor upon Your throne
All glory and power are Yours alone   

VERSE 2
What can capture a heart like mine
Wandering far, calloused and hard
Nothing but Your love divine
Poured out and washed over me

CHORUS
My beautiful
Wonderful risen King
In splendor upon Your throne
All glory and power
All blessing and honor are Yours alone

To hear when You call
When Your voice thunders 
Or Your words gently fall
Guide me Good Shepherd
For I'm a lost lamb
Make Your will clear once again

I'm at a crossroads
Which path should I take
The right or the left one
I won't hesitate
I'm watching and waiting
Be still my soul
When you say the word I will go

I am ready, I will follow
With Your wisdom for tomorrow

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
I have been crucified
and it’s no longer I 
but Christ who lives in me
What a marvelous thought
to be marked for my God
with the hope of glory

VERSE 2 
When I think about Him
how He’s dwelling within
what depth of grace I need
You are mindful of man
Though You know who I am
I wonder how could this be?

REFRAIN
What a glorious mystery
What a glorious mystery
Christ lives, Christ lives
Christ lives in me

VERSE 3
Since my own righteousness
has been purchased with death
by Him who had no sin
There is courage I find
when I lay down my life
and take up my cross again

REFRAIN

VERSE 4
Satan has no domain
when to die is my gain
and now to live is Christ
So no power can hold
because gone is the old
and risen is my new life

REFRAIN (2x)

Lyrics:

VERSE 1           
Where You go, we will follow
What You say will be our guide

You have called, we are ready
We can feel the changing tide

We can see now looking back
  Your footprints clearly in our path  
As we press on to things unseen           
  We know the One whom we believe

    We will worship with one voice in the face of the unknown
We believe, We walk by faith
    For the plans You have are good, 
    You are showing us the way

VERSE 2
What we have, we surrender
It is Yours, not ours to hold
    We believe
    We believe
We are standing on Your promise
We can take you at Your word
    We believe
    We believe

BRIDGE
We want to be Your light on a hill
We want to be Your light on a hill
      Shining bright for all to see
We want to be Your light on a hill
We want to be Your light on a hill
      Shining bright for all to see

The love You've given, freely give away
To act justly and love mercy
Walk humbly with my God

And we shall overcome
So we'll sing for freedom

Until they are released 
For we believe that day is coming soon
When our struggle will be done
Yes we will
We can still
