Your Wounds

Your Wounds

v.1
Perfect man, sovereign plan, hand in hand
At the cross
Holy wrath, mercy’s path, meet at last
At the cross

(pre-chorus)
Blood pours down
Life flows out

(chorus)
Your wounds are beautiful
Your death bittersweet
Your tomb stands empty now
Your work complete… at the cross

v.2
Sin and grief, guilty thief, find relief
At the cross
Pain and fear, wasted years, leave them here
At the cross

And You

mp3 Chord Chart PowerPoint

v.1
Like a rebel in retreat
Wounded heart that will not beat
On the battlefield of sin
In a war I’ll never win

v.2
Through the darkness, shining bright
Comes the King to fight my fight
Killing death upon a tree
Jesus saves His enemy

chorus
And You take me, and awake me, and You break my heart of stone,
And You mold me, and enfold me, and You hold me as Your own,
And You call me, and enthrall me, and I fall before Your throne
To worship You, and You… alone.

v.3
Though I know the war is won
Still a battle rages on
Flesh and Spirit never cease
Only Christ can bring me peace.

The Mystery of Love

v.1
Narrow is the road,
And weary is the way,
That ends in peace and joy.
Lord, lead me there I pray.

v.2
Take me to that place,
Where your glory’s all I see.
To feel your presence there,
In answer to my prayer,
Holding out your hand to me.

You are my refuge in the wilderness.
There is shelter ‘neath your wings.
And you supply, the strength to fly,
And soar above this world, and I
Will always follow you.

For Lord, you came to die.
You could, but wouldn’t fly,
A pure and perfect dove.
And bleeding on a tree,
You set the guilty free,
The mystery of love.

You Are Exalted

v.1
You hold the worlds in the palm of your hand.
You flung the stars into the night.
You know every hair on every head.
You make the blind and give them sight.

You raise up nations and throw down kings,
For the glory of your name.
We are dust and you are god.
We fade away but you remain.

(chorus)
You are exalted, hallelujah, hallelujah.
You are the mighty one, hallelujah, hallelujah
(alt word to mighty: sovereign, three in, holy, righteous, etc)

v.2
You command the winds and the storms,
Snow and rain, fire and hail.
You know the creatures that swim in the deep.
You own the cattle on the hills.

You decreed these things to be.
And your Word won’t pass away.
So young and old, woman and man,
Let us praise his name.

The Road

Leadsheet

v.1
There’s a road I’m traveling on.
And there’s a rock I rest upon.
While your sweet voice whispers a poem,
You hold the light that leads me home.

(chorus)
Oh-oh-oh-oh Jesus
You are more precious every day.
Oh-oh- Jesus
Your Word is life all along my way.

Even when the road grows weary
And the path seems so unclear,
I feel your touch,
And know you’re here.

v.2
There’s a life I’ve left behind
For the hope of what I’ll find.
In knowing you and nothing less,
My precious pearl, my happiness.

v.3
When someday this journey ends,
We will meet as best of friends.
And I will stand on golden streets,
With tears of joy as you wash my feet.

    "Marc is a very funny guy and a good friend. But neither of those reasons tell you why I appreciate his songs. Marc uses language and music in a creative way to express genuine struggles and joys in light of a sovereign, gracious Redeemer."
