But God 03:23
I deserved to die for I'd not glorified Your name Blinded by my pride I'd wandered far from You in vain But You are love and You loved me But You are light and You found me I was dead in my trespasses and iniquities Given over to passions that had run away with me But You are love and You loved me But You're alive and You raised me You're so rich in mercy You're so rich in mercy I'd been eating swill, I'd been drinking from dirty drains Started out in wealth but, oh! how I'd squandered it away But You are love and You loved me But Your grace has saved me You're so rich in mercy You're so rich in mercy Because of Your love You came and found me Threw Your arms around me Far off, far from God No life, without hope Strangers, aliens No claim to promises But God in love Has sent His Son Now He, our peace Has made us one But God

Glorious 04:31
There’s never been a greater mystery That reveals the heart of God When in Christ He bore my penalty And He satisfied His wrath The cross of Christ It’s glorious! It’s glorious! God’s sacrifice for sin He paid the price He’s glorious! So glorious! Now raised to life again Even though I was Your enemy You displayed Your heart of love God of favour, rich in mercy You gave up Your only Son You have given me grace everlasting You have given me freedom to live In Your presence there is no condemnation Now I’m living for You Show me Your glory Show me Your glory Show me the glory of the cross This magnificent story Jesus Christ dying for me I love the glory of the cross

You disturb me With a whisper I'm undone You disarm me Oh still my heart with reverence In the knowledge of the mercy that has awakened me The eternal God whose glory never fades I love Your Name Now awake my soul to praise God of all grace I will live to know You You escape me Who can grasp the infinite? You invade me I am free but I am not my own Oh the knowledge! Who can comprehend the unsearchable? You're to be feared and greatly to be praised I love Your Name Now awake my soul to praise God of all grace I will live to know You I love Your ways How You live to fascinate Compelled by grace I will live to know You Yahweh, I am filled with You With Your fulness I'm consumed In Your presence I am satisfied Purify me with Your fire You astound me with the measure of Your love You surround me You are filling up the universe With the knowledge of the glory of the Risen One You're eternal And Your glory never fades

Troubled 04:33
O troubled heart, do not be afraid Trust the Lord your God, let not hope be swayed He will hear your cry and will give you aid O troubled heart, though your foes unite Let your faith be strong and your armour bright You shall overcome through His power and might Able, He is able To deliver you O troubled heart, when you're at your worst Seek His righteousness, put His kingdom first He'll provide your food, and will quench your thirst O troubled heart, when your path's unclear He will rescue you and dispel your fear In your greatest need He is always near Able, He is able To deliver, to deliver Able, He is able To deliver you O troubled heart don't give in to sin It will prove to be a broken cistern Bleed you of your strength, dry you up within O troubled heart do not be condemned Sorrow you may feel, but God is your friend He will give you grace to the very end Able, He is able To deliver, to deliver Able, He is able To deliver, to deliver He is able, He is able To deliver you He is able, He is able

Amazed 04:08
Amazed at what You’ve done Lord, with confidence I come Covered by the blood of Your Son Defended by His righteousness I am in Christ Forgiven, accepted and free I am alive Made new for eternity I have been saved By Jesus, condemned in my place He took my sin He took my shame Hallelujah, what a Saviour Hallelujah, glorious King Thank You Jesus, my Redeemer Glory belongs to You

Search Me 04:43
Where can I go that You won't find me? What can I say that You won't hear? And You know my every secret Where can You be that I can't find You How precious are Your thoughts to me I long to know Your every secret Your every secret Search me, O God Know my heart Test me and know my thoughts Where can I flee from Your presence? You hem me in and You surround me I hold on to this precious secret This precious secret Search me, O God Know my heart Test me and know my thoughts Lead me, O Lord Into Your truth Draw me in close to You
7.
Always Good 04:44
You are always light Though I see in part I know You are searching me To see what's in my heart You are always light You are always love Even in the pain I know You are teaching me That to die is gain You are always love You are good And Your promises, Your promises, they never fail You are good All Your promises, Your promises, they never fail You are always wise Though I act the fool I know You are shaping me To be more like You You are always wise
8.
God Who Sees 02:13
You are the God who sees You know my every thought And every motive of my heart You are the God who sees The humble You draw near But the proud You know from afar Nothing is hidden from Your sight We are exposed by Your glorious light You're the God who watches o'er the darkest night You are the God who sees You are the God who hears You know my every word Before I even speak, You've heard You are God who hears To answer broken cries But all foolish boasting You despise

The Garden 03:28
I was born a slave Sharing Adam's fate Toil and labour pains Cursed and banished from the garden From Your garden Working barren ground Debt my master now Death my only wage Damned if I do, damned if I don't Is there a way to get back in Through the gates of flaming cherubim? Is there a way to get back home Into the garden? Then He became flesh Died a sinner’s death Ransom in His hands Cut the cords and freed this dead man Oh, the freedom! I was born again Now a citizen Rights I could not earn Blessed if I do, graced if I don't He is the only way back in To the holy presence of the King He is the only way back home Into the kingdom I do not belong To me anymore I have a new name Given to me by the One Who now owns me
10.
From my window looking out I saw him walking near her house With sweet persuasive words she said "I've paid my vows, I've laid my bed" Foolish man Spell-bound to her arms he ran Soon he'll learn Carry fire and it will burn From my window they are gone He's been captured by her song In her melody caught fast He's not the first, won't be the last Foolish man Spell-bound to her arms he ran Soon he'll learn Carry fire and it will burn Foolish girl Running a half-way house to hell Soon they'll learn Carry fire and it will burn Hear the cry of wisdom in the night "Who will understand? Who will do what's right?" Hear the sweeter song, hear the greater sound As she lifts her voice to all mankind From my window I looked in To the place where it begins In the mind, in the desire Entertaining thoughts of fire But Your grace surrounds us at the dawn And Your mercy's new for everyone Yes Your grace surrounds us at the dawn There are mercies new for everyone But Your grace surrounds us at the dawn
