1. O that I had a thousand voices
To praise my God with thousand tongues
My heart, which in the Lord rejoices
Would then proclaim in grateful song
Chorus: O praise the Lord, bless His Name forever
Shout for joy, laud the Holy One.
Honor Him, lift Your alleluias
For all He is, and all He’s done.
2. O all ye powers that He implanted
Rise up and silence keep no more
Muster the strength that He has granted Your noblest work
is to adore:
Bridge: We shake off the sloth
We turn from the world
We renounce the gods
Help us now, help us now
We will join the song
We will lift our hearts
We will give our all
Help us now, help us now
3 O Father as You stoop to listen
Hearing our feeble songs and sighs
May all our noise and imperfection
Rise pure and sweet through Jesus Christ

I Asked the Lord
03:49
|
|||
1. I asked the Lord that I might grow In faith and love
And every grace. Might more of His salvation know,
And seek more earnestly His face
Chorus: He made me feel The hidden evils of my heart.
And let the angry powers of Hell Assault my soul.
2. He seemed Intent to aggravate my woe
Crossed all the fair designs I schemed,
Cast my feelings, laid me low
Lord why this, I trembling cried
Wilt Thou pursue thy worm to death?
Bridge: Tis in this way, tis in this way
The Lord replied "I answer prayer for grace and faith"
3: These inward trials I employ From self and pride
to set thee free and break thy schemes of earthly joy
That thou mayest seek thy all in me, That thou maye seek thy all in me.

Redeeming Love
04:03
|
|||
Now begin the heavenly theme;
Sing aloud in Jesus’ name;
Ye who his salvation prove, Triumph in love.
Chorus: Welcome all by sin oppressed, Welcome to his sacred rest; Nothing brought him from above, Nothing but redeeming love.
Ye who see the Father’s grace
Beaming in the Savior’s face,
As to Canaan on you move,
Praise and bless love.
Bridge: Mourning souls, dry up your tears;
Banish all your guilty fears;
See your guilt and curse remove,
Cancelled by redeeming love.
When his spirit leads us home,
When we to his glory come,
We shall all the fullness prove
Of Gods redeeming love.

how is it that something i cant even touch
can introduce my knees to the floor, torment my soul, or make me happier than i thought humanly possible
love is a reckless surgeon
how is it that something i cant even touch
possess the ability to control me better than myself, humble me to my bones, or feed me truth
i called it a CURSE
it grabbed me around the neck and choked me
took me by the wrists and chained me to bottom of the dark abyss i call my heart.
but someone met me there. His name is love and while unchaining me, the buckles that finally loosened revealed scars that i know wont go away. then he showed me His.
i submitted to false gods. i knew their intentions were to chain me and i chased them anyways. still in that- He showed me a pretty lady named Grace. it was at the end of my tracks, hail mairy intercepted. no one was for me, not even myself. a self destructive savage, a shattered man,
it was then i saw
love
