Anchor for the Soul
03:47
|
|||
In the cross of Christ we behold a grace,
As the Lamb of God suffered in our place,
Where unfailing love paid the greatest cost -
So sing out, sing out in praise.
With the empty tomb at the break of day,
Death had lost its grip, Christ had made a way
For the curse of sin to be overcome -
So sing out, sing out in praise.
Lift your eyes above,
See our King upon his throne.
We will reign with him, so let this hope
Be an anchor for the soul.
In the endless night when the battles rage,
And when sorrow flows out of every page,
From the deepest depths He will hear your call -
So sing out, sing out in praise.
With the gift of faith and the Spirit's power,
We can stand secure in our darkest hour,
For his promises, they will never fail -
So sing out, sing out in praise.
We await the day that our Saviour comes
When the night will flee, and the world is done.
To the Father’s house He will call us home,
So sing out, sing out in praise.

Jesus, Friend and precious Saviour
Word in flesh with truth and grace
You came down to dwell among us
Friend of sinners You embraced
God of glory emptied self and
Took the nature of a man
Jesus tempted, still found sinless
All our faults You understand
On the cross You died to save us
Rose again, defeated death
Now exalted, worth all worship
You've redeemed our ev'ry breath
What a myst'ry, Lord, that You should
Even choose to call us friends
Only Your great sacrifice can
Bring together God and men
In the quiet of the morning
Moments 'till the start of day
You remind me of Your mercies
Never ceasing come what may
Even when I fail to please You
In my thoughts and words and deeds
You extend Your gracious arms and
Bring the healing that I need
When the heavens and the earth fade
When all things are brought to light
You will welcome those who trust You
As Your perfect, spotless bride
Oh what joy will fill Your people
Oh what glorious unity
Jesus, Friend and precious Saviour
Friend for all eternity

Our God is One
04:06
|
|||
Our God is One: Father, Spirit and Son
Before the world or
The stars had been spun
He was perfect in love
Glorious in unity
Our God is One: in creation's design
The Father speaks
Word and Spirit combine
To bring order and life
Joyful in all he made
Who is like our God
In boundless, ceaseless love
Holy is His name
From age to age the same
The First and Last
Our Saviour, our King and our song
Our God is One
Our God is One: Jesus
Word became man
The Father's Son
Sent as Lord and as Lamb
In the image of God
Filled with the Spirit's power
Our God is One
Full of goodness and grace
Christ on the cross
Open arms to embrace
Father's wrath turned aside
Rising from death to life
Who is like our God
In sinless, selfless love
Our God is One
Spirit sent to the earth
In Jesus' name
Gifting sinners rebirth
Shining light in to dark
Opening eyes to see
Our God is One
Crowned in glory on high
The bride of Christ
And the Spirit will cry
Jesus, come! Jesus, come
Gather your children home
Who is like our God
In endless, matchless love

Holy
03:57
|
|||
Come let's praise the Lord
He is worthy of praise
Heav'n and earth bow down
To the King who reigns
Holy, holy are you Lord
Holy is your name O Lord
Nations tremble at your voice
Your ways are so great O God
Though the days be dark
And mens’ hearts may fail
Jesus is my rock
To the end of time
Oh shout you redeemed
For your King has come
Now the old has gone
And the new has come
And the new has come

Death Defeated
03:31
|
|||
There's a hope that reaches every land
That sets us free, from brokenness and fear
For cries of mercy, there comes salvation
In to the darkness, shines light
There's a hope passed down through every age
That we've received, on which we take our stand
What's sown dishonoured, shall rise in glory
What's sown to perish, shall rise everlasting
Death defeated, heaven opened
Jesus lives again
Sins forgiven, darkness conquered
The triumph of the cross - Christ over all
There's a hope that overcomes the grave
It's swallowed up, that death may sting no more
What's sown in weakness, shall rise in power
What's sown in nature, shall rise in the Spirit
In a flash, in the twinkling of an eye
We will all be changed
At the end, the last trumpet will resound
We will all be changed

So Near
02:49
|
|||
So near, so very near to God
No nearer can I be
For now my life is found in Christ
I am as near as he
So dear, so very dear to God
No dearer can I be
For now the love he bears to Christ
This love he bears to me
How great, how lavish is his love
That he should call me child
How vast the grace bestowed on me
A sinner reconciled
How precious are his promises
To such a soul as this
In life, in death, I rest secure
For I am wholly his
So when the weight of guilt assails
With accusation’s chains
I run triumphant to the cross
Where sin no longer reigns
There is no condemnation now
For those who are in Christ
He is my Lord, my Advocate
My Saviour and my Life

On These Precious Truths
03:24
|
|||
Oh God's grace, how sweet and free
That your mercy came for me
You saw my distress, wretched helplessness
And you sought what was lost
Oh God's gift of faith alone
Christ's perfection made my own
Nothing can I bring as an offering
Jesus paid every cost
And on these precious truths we stand
Upheld by your unfailing hand
Wisdom fades and powers fall
But your great love surpasses all
Oh God's Word, how firm and sure
His unfading treasure store
Bringing hope and light, armour for the fight
Through the gospel that saves
Oh God's King, our Christ the Lord
Our salvation His reward
Perfect sacrifice won eternal life
As he rose from the grave
Oh God's name above all names
His the glory, His the fame
We can only give humble hearts to live
For His honour and praise

Turn Us Again
03:49
|
|||
Have mercy on us O Lord
For we are weak
Heal us, restore us and still our fears
We chose the wrong
So touch us, forgive us
And turn us again
Turn us again O God, turn us again O God
Cause your face to shine
And we shall be saved, we shall be saved
We shall be saved when you shine your face
Have mercy on us O Lord
Regard your vine
Suffering and thirsty for gentle love
Help from above
Reclaim us, retain us
Return to us Lord
Return to us O Lord, return to us O Lord
Bend your gracious gaze
And watch over us, watch over us
Watch over us, restore your wounded ones
Have mercy on us O Lord
Draw near anew
Nurture and nourish, oh guide our life
That we may thrive
So tend us, defend us
And turn us again
So we will not turn away, so we will not turn away
Shield us through your grace
So we shall be saved, we shall be saved
We shall be saved when you shine your face
Turn us again O Lord, turn us again O Lord
And cause your face to shine

Where are you, Lord?
04:33
|
|||
We've cried a thousand tears
We'll cry a thousand more
Where are you Lord
Our souls are pouring out
We've fallen to the floor
Where are you Lord
We long to see your face turn upon our distress
Where are you Lord
Our bodies waste away
We're down to skin and bones
Where are you Lord
We search for answered prayer
Our way is lined with stones
Where are you Lord
We'll call upon your name 'til you bring us relief
Where are you Lord
Take heart, oh my soul
Remember the Lord's great love
You know his mercies to be new every morning
Great is your faithfulness
Have hope, oh my soul
And wait for the sun to rise
He is your portion and his grace never ceases
Great is your faithfulness
Our hearts are full of sin
We've wandered from the light
Where are you Lord
Your anger sets a fire
That rages through the night
Where are you Lord
We'll wait until your arms reach again to redeem
Where are you Lord

Your Steadfast Love
04:02
|
|||
Our soul waits for the Lord
For the Lord
Our soul waits for the Lord
For the Lord
He is our help and our shield
He is our help and our shield
Let your steadfast love O Lord
Be upon us, be upon us
Let your steadfast love O Lord
Be upon us, be upon us
For we hope in You
Our heart is glad in him
In him
Our heart is glad in him
In him
We trust in his holy name
We trust in his holy name
Let your steadfast love O Lord
Be upon us, be upon us
Let your steadfast love O Lord
Be upon us, be upon us
For we hope in You
And You alone

The Day the Angel Came
04:42
|
|||
The day the angel came
The light began to spark
A promise to a virgin bride
A child; Immanuel
Bringing hope again
To people in the dark
Long foretold, the time was near
For God to come and dwell
And oh, her heart rang out
Rejoice! The Lord has shown great mercy
Born to me, but Saviour to us all
The night the star appeared
The light began to shine
Guiding travellers from the east
To see the King from old
Shepherds in their fields
Beheld a host Divine
At first afraid, then filled with joy
At what they had been told
And oh, the choir sang out
Rejoice! Great news for all the people
Glory to our God in highest heights
And peace to all on whom his favour rests
From first breath in the straw
To the cross where he breathed no more
Life given out for the world
From a tomb opened wide
To a throne by his Father's side
Life everlasting unfurled
So we cry Hallelujah
So we cry Hallelujah
Let all the earth sing out
Rejoice! The night is almost over,
Christ our Lord, the King of Kings, is here
The Light of Life, with healing in his wings
