FAITHFUL TO FINISH
Lord, I bring You this broken life, unable to stand on my own
Once lonely, rejected, and wounded, left out on my own
Lord, I bring You this broken life wounded by choices I’ve made
The way that seemed right was so wrong, I was so far away
But You opened my eyes when I gave You my heart
And You’ve picked up each broken part
You are faithful to finish what You started
The good work You began, You’ll complete
I am not what I was when I started And I’m not what I’m going to be
Your Word is forever established; You are faithful to carry me through
Every year, every day, every hour You are making me more like You
Lord, some days I feel like giving in To throw in the towel and give up
Unable to feel Your Presence; to feel Your love
But the Truth is not based on my feelings
I choose to stand by faith That You are more than able to bring me
The rest of the way
You are faithful to finish what You started
The good work You began, You’ll complete
I am not what I was when I started And I’m not what I’m going to be
Your Word is forever established You are faithful to carry me through
Every year, every day, every hour You are making me more like You
You are faithful to finish what You started
The good work You began, You’ll complete
I am not what I was when I started And I’m not what I’m going to be
Your Word is forever established; You are faithful to carry me through
Every year, every day, every hour You are

The Tide Of Your Love
As I come into Your Presence Bowing down in humble reverence
The holy Passion of Your Essence Drives my longing heart deeper still
Far beyond the “status quo” Deep within the River’s flow
To quench this thirst I know Only You can fill
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Currents of Your mercy are washing over me
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty
Diving to Your depths of Truth and grace
How I long for the day when I see Your face
Oh how I long to feel true love’s embrace
Deep within the tide of Your love
Deep within the tide of Your love
As I come now to Your Presence You now lead me to green pastures
Breaking free from all my past years I surrender all I am to You now
You alone are God Creator You alone, the heart Remaker
Create in me a heart of flesh Take away this heart of stone
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Currents of Your mercy are washing over me
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty
Diving to Your depths of Truth and grace
How I long for the day when I see Your face
Oh how I long to feel true love’s embrace
Deep within the tide of Your love
Deep within the tide of Your love
As I come into Your Presence Bowing down in humble reverence
The holy Passion of Your Essence Drives my longing heart deeper still
Far beyond the “status quo” Deep within the River’s flow
To quench this thirst I know Only You can fill
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Currents of Your mercy are washing over me
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty
Diving to Your depths of Truth and grace
How I long for the day when I see Your face
Oh how I long to feel true love’s embrace
Deep within the tide of Your love
Deep within the tide of Your love
As I come now to Your Presence You now lead me to green pastures
Breaking free from all my past years I surrender all I am to You now
You alone are God Creator You alone, the heart Remaker
Create in me a heart of flesh Take away this heart of stone
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Currents of Your mercy are washing over me
So I plunge into the tide of Your love
Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty
Diving to Your depths of Truth and grace
How I long for the day when I see Your face
Oh how I long to feel true love’s embrace
Deep within the tide of Your love
Deep within the tide of Your love
THE HEAVENS DECLARE YOUR GLORY
THE GALAXIES ALL SPIN IN PRAISE,
THE HEAVENS DECLARE YOUR GLORY
THE QUAZARS BURST IN CELEBRATION
AT THE WONDER OF WHO YOU ARE
THE UNIVERSE TAKES SECOND STAGE IN CELESTIAL EXALTATION
TO THE ONE WHO SET THE STARS IN PLACE
AND I’M AMAZED THAT ONE SO GREAT
COMES TO ME TO me, TO Meet HIM IN THIS PLACE
AND MY WORLD IS BLOWN APART
AT THE WONDER OF WHO YOU ARE
HOW YOU HUMBLED YOURSELF SO WE COULD BE TOGETHER
ALL MY SIN, SHAME, AND DISCRACE
YOU BORE ON THE CROSS WHERE YOU TOOK MY PLACE
AND MADE A WAY SO I COULD COME TO YOU
WHERE THE LOVE OF GOD FOR ME HAS BROKEN THROUGH
I LOVE YOU LORD, OH JESUS, I LOVE YOU
THE PLANETS DANCE IN TIME AROUND THE STARS
THE COMETS FLY THEIR BANNERS FOR YOUR GLORY
THE SATELLITES REFLECT THE LIGHT YOU GIVE
EACH SUN A PALE SHADOW OF YOUR SPLENDOR
THE ELEMENTS HOLD TOGETHER BY YOUR WORD
YOUR POWER KEEPS THE UNIVERSE TOGETHER
EVERY DAY OF LIFE IS A GIFT FROM YOU
EACH DETAIL REVEALS YOU AS CREATOR
AND MY WORLD IS BLOWN APART
AT THE WONDER OF WHO YOU ARE
HOW YOU HUMBLED YOURSELF SO WE COULD BE TOGETHER
ALL MY SIN, SHAME, AND DISCRACE
YOU BORE ON THE CROSS WHERE YOU TOOK MY PLACE
AND MADE A WAY SO I COULD COME TO YOU
WHERE THE LOVE OF GOD FOR ME HAS BROKEN THROUGH
I LOVE YOU LORD, OH JESUS, I LOVE YOU
And run to You will all my heart
and arms flung open wide
With holy zeal I earnestly press
to where true love abides
THE GALAXIES ALL SPIN IN PRAISE,
THE HEAVENS DECLARE YOUR GLORY
THE QUAZARS BURST IN CELEBRATION
AT THE WONDER OF WHO YOU ARE
THE UNIVERSE TAKES SECOND STAGE IN CELESTIAL EXALTATION

BEACON OF TRUTH
I’ve walked down the halls of religion
Grew up in the shadows of traditions of men
Thinking I was one of the upright
Believing I was truly abiding in Him
Then Your Truth came alive in Your Word and Your witness
Your Spirit pierced through with the Light of Your love
Showing the way—I must trust in Your grace
Flooding my life with Your love
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
I’ve read through the Bible’s pages
Only to back up the opinions of men
But then Your Holy Spirit led me
To go and search through the scriptures again
Then Your Word came alive through Your life giving Spirit
The darkness fell off like scales from my eyes
Showing anew, the Word from God’s point of view
Opening my eyes to see
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
Jesus, Light of my salvation
Jesus, Way and Truth and Life
Jesus, Lord of all creation
Jesus, I lift Your Name on high
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
I’ve walked down the halls of religion
Grew up in the shadows of traditions of men
Thinking I was one of the upright
Believing I was truly abiding in Him
Then Your Truth came alive in Your Word and Your witness
Your Spirit pierced through with the Light of Your love
Showing the way—I must trust in Your grace
Flooding my life with Your love
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
I’ve read through the Bible’s pages
Only to back up the opinions of men
But then Your Holy Spirit led me
To go and search through the scriptures again
Then Your Word came alive through Your life giving Spirit
The darkness fell off like scales from my eyes
Showing anew, the Word from God’s point of view
Opening my eyes to see
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
Jesus, Light of my salvation
Jesus, Way and Truth and Life
Jesus, Lord of all creation
Jesus, I lift Your Name on high
You’re my Beacon of Truth in a sea of deceptions
A light to my way past the doctrines of men
A Bright Ray of Hope freed from temporal delusion
You’re my Savior and Lord, My God and my Friend
