Lyrics:

VERSE 1
This image is stuck in my head and burned in my heart
It's cloudy and though it is real, it's just the small start
Of who I'm made to be
Of who I'm made to be

CHORUS
I have seen in your people, glimpses of Your face
I have seen reflections of amazing grace
Make the picture clearer, draw me nearer
As I walk this life of faith
As I walk this life of faith

VERSE 2
This image of following you is starting to show
All the colors begin to spread out and can feel growth
As You develop me
As You develop me

Lyrics: 

VERSE 1
When life gets out of place
And my world's turned upside down
I find I'm face to face
With all this pain and doubt

PRE-CHORUS
This was not my plan
How I dreamed things would be
But You hold me in Your hand
And You remind me

CHORUS
You are in control
You have planned my way
You know all the answers 
And You'll never change
You know what is best
You know the why and how
And I know that You love me
So I can trust You now

VERSE 2
When questions fill my mind
About what lies ahead
I wait for Your reply
With patience wearing thin

PRE-CHORUS 2
But I know You have a plan
To work things for the good
You hold me in Your hand
And I'm reminded

BRIDGE
Please take my hand and guide me
When things just don't seem clear
'Cause the place where You are standing
Has a better view than here
Truly in the end, I only want Your will not mine
Your ways are higher, You work all things in Your time

Let us all rejoice and be glad in it

Yes it's true, we can find

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
In the beginning
There was nothing
A lifeless void that was
Simply waiting
An empty canvas
Blank and formless
Longing for beauty, the touch
Of an artist

PRE-CHORUS
And with that first small spark
You chased away the dark
Began Your work of art

CHORUS
You're the Painter of the skies
The Author of all life
At Your Word the heavens came to be
When You breathed the stars were born
The universe was formed
All Your thoughts became reality
Your fingerprints are everywhere

VERSE 2
I am silenced
As I listen
To the music of
Your creation
The roaring seas
The gentle breeze
All of nature is playing Your symphony

BRIDGE
And the pinnacle of Your work
Were the people You formed from the dirt
And despite our failures
You still see our worth
We are Your masterpiece

VERSE 1
Such mercy, unfailing
Such things I’ve never known
What is man that You love him
And receive him as Your own

More wonders still unseen
Your hand is my rescue
Reaching down to set me free

Such shameful things endured 
Then victory unyielding
Arose with life assured

Lyrics:

How he loves his Church
How he loves it still
Though we often stray
From the founding cornerstone
But in the darkest night
I hope we hear the bell still toll
It’s ringing out for all who hear
To gather round

How he loved the thief
Upon the cross
Who in many ways,
Was a lot like me and you
But in the darkest night
He heard the bell begin to toll
Ringing out for all who hear
To gather round

     Gather round, oh you broken hearted
     Gather round, from near and far away
     Let’s remember Christ
     His body and his blood
     Break the bread, take the cup
     Gather round

How he loves this world
Full of wayward souls
No injustice he claimed
As the hammer hit the nail
But in the darkest night
He heard the bell begin to toll
It’s ringing out for all who hear
To gather round

Chorus

How he loves you child
See him hanging there
With the weight of sin
And without his father’s hand
But in the darkest night
He made the bell begin to toll
It’s ringing out for all who hear
To gather round

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
We were once alone in the darkness
Reaching out to be loved, to know that we belong
Unclean, unwanted and unclaimed
Without hope, without peace, condemned and enslaved

PRE-CHORUS 
Then came morning like we had never known,
When You freed us and called us Your own

CHORUS
Abba, Father, 
we are home, here in Your arms
Abba  Father,
we are Yours, rescued by Your love

VERSE 2
There was once a light that pieced the darkness
But His own did not know Him or receive His gift of love
Unphased, undaunted, unashamed
He reached out to the ones believing in His name

PRE-CHORUS 2
With His final breath the veil came down
Now by His love, we can cry out

CHORUS

BRIDGE
We will not live in fear for our father is King
We will not be condemned because Christ has redeemed
We will boldly draw near to Your throne of grace
And one day we'll be standing face to face, 
and we'll cry...

CHORUS

Lyrics:

VERSE 1
When we run far from You
You pursue
Though we stray into sin
You forgive 

PRE-CHORUS
And when we fall down
And when we rise up

CHORUS
You pour out grace
Grace upon grace
We can't outrun Your love
Cause mercy catches up
You pour out grace
Grace upon grace
No matter where we've been
You take us back again
And You pour out grace

VERSE 2
When we waver in our faith
You remain
When we're cold and our love fails
Yours prevails

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Your heart does not change
even when we stray
For You will always find a way
