People of the Lord sing:

Shout with joy:

Overwhelmed

Sat, 15 Nov 2008 19:47:52 +0000

v.1
Long ago before this world was formed
You reached out and numbered all my days
Grace and mercy flowing down through time
E’er this heart or lips could sing your praise

(chorus)
You overwhelm me God
With love that never ends
You overwhelm me God
That you would call me friend
You overwhelm me
You overwhelm me
You overwhelm me God

v.2
At the cross you turned your face away
Poured on Christ the ocean of my sin
Now I’m safe beneath your holy eyes
Judging me yet seeing only him

(bridge)
And worlds may spin and stars may fall
You speak your word control them all
And hearts of stone are turned to flesh
They’re miracles, your miracles

Seeing

Fri, 14 Nov 2008 02:29:54 +0000

v.1
Bruised and beaten
Taunted torn
Humbled hung
In shame

Scorned and censured
Murdered mocked
Seeing still
You came

(chorus)
For the joy You saw
You saw it through
Through Your dying eyes
We see Him too…

Teach us to hope
Teach us to see like You do
Teach us to die
Teach us to live life in You
Teach us to love… like You

v.2
Weak and wicked
Hateful hearts
“Crucify”
We cried

Sinful straying
Boasting blind
Yet for us
You died

Stay

Thu, 13 Nov 2008 06:01:46 +0000

v.1
I’ve been wandering
Far from Your side
Pursuing idols
Feeding my pride
I’ve been neglecting
The Word that you sent
Help me repent… and stay

v.2
When I’m confident
Life seems okay
That’s when I find I’m
Drifting away
The ground I stood on
Was sinking sand
Lord take my hand… and stay

(bridge)
If You leave me to myself
I will ever be this way… Jesus

(chorus)
Take me to your cross
Where beggars count as loss
The riches once thought gain
To know You in Your pain

Where man finds God again
And remedy for sin
Where every debt I own
Is paid by You alone…

Jesus, take me to Your cross

v.3
And so I strive lord
Running this race
Pleading and praying
Seeking your face
Yet sinful flesh can
Darken my soul
Lord make me whole… and stay

Wanderin’ Man

Wed, 12 Nov 2008 17:57:00 +0000

v.1
I have walked many a mile
With barely a smile
For stranger or friend

I have spent too many words
On things you have heard
Again and again

(chorus 1 & 2)
And time is rolling by
Like a river running dry
Hope I find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man

v.2
I regret wars I have won
Lives I’ve undone
For what i could gain

I have wept many a tear
Livin’ in fear
I’d do it again

v.3
I’m so tired of goin’ nowhere
And endin’ up there
Afraid and alone

I have walked my last mile
Your song and your smile
Welcome me home

(chorus 3)
And time is standing by
Like a lazy summer night
I did find a love of my own
A place to call home
For a wanderin’ man
