Worship God

Look on Jesus

Life has been an incline
Toil so bittersweet
But when I look on Jesus
He makes it oh so sweet/

My pace has found its rhythm
My focus now complete
I’ve learned to look on Jesus
His love my strength to keep/

Through trials that strengthen
And grace all blessings flow
I humbly look on Jesus
Who lights my path below/

Life has been an incline
Toil so bittersweet
But when I look on Jesus
He makes it oh so sweet!

Belong

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

There was a time I only knew
This homeless world my only view
Now touched by love completely new
Eternal home I found in You/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due/

Your loving gaze upon the earth
Seeking those whose hearts brand new
Turning from our works to You
Spirit, soul and body due/

Jesus I belong to You
Nothing in this world will do
All my works I give to You
Use my life Your glory due

Triumphant One

O sweet victory, you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong/

Barren fields now filled with fruit
Everlasting faith in You
O Restorer of my soul
Lord of life, abundance flow/

Sovereign One who searches out
Those whose hearts are Yours contrite
Brings to triumph with a shout
Angel armies our victory delight/

O sweet victory you have won
Triumphant Savior is our song
Wounded hearts now healed belong
To our Savior keep us strong

Eyes To See

Touch my eyes Lord that I may see
Your great will you’ve planned for me
Humbly I come on bended knee
Seeking Your will indwelt in me/

Take captive thoughts my mind set free
Submit my plans to a greater plea
That I would choose obedience be
A mind set free to soar with Thee!/

Triumphant One, who promised all
Eyes to see His highest call
Touch my eyes that I may see
Your great will you’ve planned for me!/

Triumphant One, O Shepherd King
Help me walk Thy Presence be
Your life, the Cross rose up for me
That I may live and soar with Thee!

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!/

So loved the world that He created

Yearned to redeem us from the pit

Gave His only Son begotten

We are new creatures alive in Him!/

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!/

Life everlasting in His Presence

Born again to reign with Him

Left behind a world of sorrow

Jesus Christ is now my Friend!/

Hallelujah what a Savior

Hallelujah what a Friend

Hallelujah King of Glory

Born to save us from our sin!

I Am Yours, You Are Mine

I am Yours, You are mine

This life I live, be glorified

Each breath I take in Thee I find,

I am Yours, You are mine//

God in me, my life not mine

Your Word in me, new life divine

My God, the Word, Jesus I find

Christ the Lord who saved mankind!//

My need for Thee, O Mighty God!

To lead me through this life abroad

Triumphant path for those who cling

Forever more to Jesus, King//

I am Yours, You are mine

This life I live, be glorified

Each breath I take in Thee I find

I am Yours, You are mine

Live for You

Live For You

My anguished heart

Laid bare for You

As morning dawns

Now sings to You/

With heart bowed down

In humble praise

I raise my hands

Receive Your grace/

Entrust my heart

My life, my all

I give to You

Surrenders call/

To honor You

My whole life through

My highest praise,

To live for You.

My highest praise,

To live for You.

Yielded

Yielded

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your love over me

I am yielded and free

Come pour your life over me/

No one can take my life

I give it willingly

No one can make me see

Thy Spirit who dwells in me/

God in me, filling me

Jesus, Lord over me

Spirit, creating in me

New life, gifted in Thee (repeat)/

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your love over me

I am yielded and free

Come pour Your life over me/

Yielded, free in Thee

Oh Jesus, yielded in Thee

A New Song

A New Song

A song of triumph, a song of might

A song of glory in His delight

A song of faith, sent from above

A song anew, His faithful love/

My journey filled with arrows sharp

Firm bow arms limber, my Father taught

Unaware of life, my training ground

Would yield such strength, a victor’s crown/

My journey long, the valleys deep

Sometimes lonely, often weak

My path was lit, His Word my light

His promise sure, His power my might/

The spoil before me, a great reward

To Him this triumph, to heavens roar!

His Way, His Truth, His Life we prove

The One Most Holy, The One Most True/

A song of triumph, a song of might

A song of glory in His delight

A song of faith sent from above

A song anew, His faithful love
