About Us : The Album : Lyrics :
Our Home Church

Beyond Words

Can I give my disgrace to the One that I love?
Would I ask you to die for the things that I’ve done
In my name, in my name

For You opened your arms and we pierced them with nails
And You showed us Your heart just so we could impale
To our shame, to our shame

In a moment of time our eternity swayed
On Your choice to remain on the cross and You stayed

Chorus:
And You bled, and You cried
And You gave Yourself over
With arms open wide
And I bow, and I fall
On my knees here before You
All for the wonder of love

And You breathed on the earth and we deeply inhaled
Just to curse and to doubt You and run far away
From Your life, from Your life

But with every step farther You pulled us to You
In the dark of our lies shown the light of Your truth

Far beyond words of devotion
You took the sentence of death for my blame


God of my Life

Am I close to You?
Are You here at all?
I try to reach the hem but I just hit the wall

I need to run to You
So why do I crawl?
I speak Your name but do I really hear Your call?

Instead of talking to the wind
I need to bring my words to You

Chorus:
There you are, in the darkness of night
And to You – I will lift up my eyes
And my soul, will wait for the dawn of Your light
I will wait for the God of my life

Not for what I need
Or what I’m dreaming of
Just to Your name be glory for Your faithful love

More than all I’ve known
More than what I feel
You’re far beyond what I could ever think to be

Instead of bowing to defeat
I look to You who cannot fall


All We Need

Show us Your unfailing love
Bring us back to You again
As we listen to Your voice
You promise peace to us
Let us not go back to where we’ve come from

Chorus:
All we need – is just to know You
All we have – it all comes from You
All You are – is what we need to see

Love and faithfulness arise
Righteousness and peace are here
You show favor to Your own
You cover all our sin
And You lead us into to Your salvation

Alt. Ch.: There is no God besides You
There is no One above You
There is no Name before You
There is no One like Jesus


Always

In the roar of the wind I will listen
In the mist and the dark I will see
On the day I feel lost and abandoned
You’ll call out to me, call out to me

When the world crumbles down I am risen
In the heart of the storm I will sleep
And if thousands should fall all around me
I’ll stand on my feet, stand on my feet

Chorus:
Always unto You – all praise. Only unto You, always

When the enemy strikes I will triumph
In a famine of love I will feast
And when the cold of the night settles on me
Your warmth I’ll feel, Your warmth I’ll feel

When the waters arise, I’ll walk on them
When they tell me to fear I will dream
And when the past speaks accusation
You speak release, You speak release

And when there’s nothing but confusion
And the end is all I see
You make all things new. You make all things new.

You Are

You call me to draw near and I don’t want to waste a minute
Your love is like a river and I want to dive right in it
I stand before You and I feel so small I can’t believe that You are
Everything You are…

Chorus:
You are - Alpha and Omega
You are – beginning and the end
You are – King, Messiah Savior and God
And You still call me Your friend

All Heavens up and every creature bows before You
And everything on earth is fully from and through and to You
Now all of my delights I find in you and I won’t try and contain
All the truth of who You are

I fall down at Your feet and I can’t even see above them
You are above all expression


Closer

When there’s no shout, no hand upraised
Falling on my knees in silence I wait
There are no words, no song of praise
That I could sing that would bring Your grace

But You know my heart, and You know my name
And You saw my sin and then washed it away
Now You draw me close; in your voice I know
I’m coming nearer to You now

Chorus:
Closer than I’ve ever been before
Closer than the knock on the door to my heart
Closer to the One that I adore
Running as Your love calls to me from afar

When I’m exposed, as plain as my need
There are no secrets that I could conceal
I bring my stains, You make me clean
You wash my heart and You wash my feet

And You’ve seen me fall, and You’ve seen me bleed
And You see my sin and You wash it from me
And You draw me in; where I need to go
I’m coming nearer to You...


Real

I will not back down, I will not delay, I won’t fall in line – this is real
I’m not holding back, I won’t compromise, will not be polite – this is real

I will not conform, I will not conceal, I will not disguise – this is real
I won’t be refined, I won’t be restrained, I’ll get undignified – this is real

Cause I know, what I know…

Chorus:
You are our Life, the only Way, the world’s one Hope, our Father
In You we burn, inside the flame, of Your consuming fire


Larger Than Life

We’ve come, to celebrate
We’ve come, to lift Your name on high – on high
We’ve come, to seek Your love
We’ve come, to give all of our lives – our lives
And we don’t know what we’ll find but…

Chorus:
You’re our love, and You’re our dreams, and Your face is what we want…
We’ll be Your hands, we’ll be Your feet, for your presence is our greatest need
So come, be in this place, and we’ll trade our lives for Your embrace
O God (Jesus), You’re larger, than life

There’s no, greater love to find, there’s no, other road that leads to life – to life
Our breath, all we do and think, what we have, we gladly sacrifice – sacrifice
‘Cause we know in You we’ll find that…


Can’t Take My Eyes off You

With sightless eyes, I lost my way. On shaky ground, I fell astray
So long I searched for truth while, not knowing I truly was so blind

Chorus:
Now I – can’t take my eyes off You (and You know I don’t want to)
No I – can’t take my eyes off You (and I know I don’t need to)

You call my name, I see Your face. The road I walked, I won’t retrace
It seems unreal that I found – such freedom while being so bound

So long to stumbling my way, You turned all of my night into day


Into Glory*

You’re my one desire - draw me close to You
Send Your consuming fire - all I give to You
Who am I You’d call into Your perfect plan?
Take my pride and my fall, You’ll hold me up to stand

Standing, falling, kneeling to the King
Pleading, repenting, confessing everything

Chorus:
You are taking me into glory
You are shaping me - I’m the clay
You are waking me to Your story
Wash away my will, I’m not afraid

All I have is Yours, take it from my hands
My surrender sure, I confess again


Under Your Feet*

I kneel down and praise my life giving God
Who refines away this worldly façade
My soul restored, my old life behind
You have made me new, turned my water to wine

Chorus:
When I’m over my head, it’s under Your feet
And I’ll take captive my thoughts, my body I’ll beat
It’s all under Your feet

Satan he asked to sift me like wheat
When I’m falling apart, You rescue me
When will You come like a thief in the night?
My, my life is Yours, till You split the sky

When I’m lost and I’m weak I remember the call
And Your work on the cross finished once and for all
My God and King


Come Thou Fount**

Come, thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise
Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above
Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it, mount of Thy redeeming love

Hither to Thy love has blessed me, Thou hast brought me to this place
And I know Thy hand will bring me, safely home by Thy good grace
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger, bought me with His precious blood

Here I raise mine Ebenezer, hither by thy help I come
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home
Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed His precious blood

O to grace how great a debtor daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love
Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, seal it for Thy courts above
