Belong

nature-gardens-300x199,google image
My Fathers child will always be
Beloved, cherished, desired by Thee
Belong now I know my Father’s love
Adored, Your faithfulness found me

Tossed about, trampled, entangled
Gripped by this world in loveless despair
Became, embraced, thought I belonged only to find
It was never enough, an endless climb

My Father’s child will always be
Steadfast love ignited me, changed
my world that I could see the life planned
for me, sons and daughters our heritage in Thee

O Most High, O Sovereign One who
Loved the world and left not one
Abandoned but became a Father to
all who choose to belong for eternity

Song of My Heart

healing-gardens1-920x350,google image
Abandoned and hopeless this world stood alone
Stripped down to existing without God as its own
Then He stooped down, chased darkness away
And pointed us toward light when love had its way/

His light brought us out from defeat and shame
Caused us to triumph and grace now reigns
Shall ever be our life proclaim
O song of my heart eternal His praise/

God Most High love covers the world
Sent Jesus His Son to rescue our souls
Savior, Servant, Redeemer and Lord
O song of my heart eternal reward/

His power bestowed on Resurrection Day
In humility and trust I shall obey
Hope eternal raised up in my soul, grateful
My song endless Your praises behold!/

Savior, Servant, Redeemer and Lord
O song of my heart eternal reward!

The Path

Before Creation our journey set
Our path, our legacy designed to last
Lined with beauty beyond our grasp
Received by choice our Savior’s best/

The wonder of being found and loved
Earning not our Savior’s love
He first loved the created world
Then set before His path of love/

Oh hail the King for love so vast
We ne’er exhaust His steadfast path
Lined with goodness endless last
Enduring love my seal my path/

Teach us Savior to choose Your path
Wisdom taught prepares us best
Love corrects our hearts to trust
More like You our desired rest/

Before Creation our journey set
Our path our legacy designed to last
Lined with beauty beyond our grasp
Received by choice our Savior’s best/

Oh hail the King for love so vast
We ne’er exhaust His steadfast path
Lined with goodness endless rest
Enduring love my seal my path!

Angel Shout

O victory shout I hear the sound
The heavens roar and angels shout
His righteousness now crowns my life
Refined as gold His great delight!/

Deep billows rolled over me at times
His refuge sought, His arms delight
Taught me to look on Him alone
How sweet the fellowship I now own
How sweet the fellowship I now own/

O victory shout I hear the sound
The heavens roar and angels shout
His righteousness now crowns my life
Refined as gold His great delight!/

The joy beyond the struggle past
Could not have known endured at last
The victors crown my great reward
Your grace, your mercy, your love my own/

O victory shout I hear the sound
The heavens roar and angels shout
His righteousness now crowns my life
Refined as gold His great delight!

Surrender

Free from worry, free from sin
No power can change my soul within
By Yours alone I live instead
A life surrendered free from stain/

All of me I humbly give
A heart renewed by faith I live
Goodness and mercy follow each day
In absolute surrender receive Your grace/

Free from worry, free from sin
No power can change my soul within
By Yours alone I live instead
A life surrendered free from stain/

My heart secure, my anchor fast
My Rock, my Christ, my First, my Last
Offers freedom to all who receive
From God alone my Savior given/

Free from worry, free from sin
No power can change my soul within
By Yours alone I live instead
A life surrendered free from stain

Distracted

Before time captured my name
God knew me, shaped my frame
Ascribed beauty, spoke number of days
Taught me to know and love His ways/

I am distracted, distracted be
My Father’s home sealed in me forever
Heaven in sight life directed be
This humble frame delights in Thee/

His thoughts are higher, my thoughts below
His ways above higher than the earth
He is the first, He is the last
This is my Father, Lord God Almighty/

I am distracted, distracted be
My Father’s home sealed in me forever
Heaven in sight life directed be
This humble frame delights in Thee/

His thoughts toward me too great to number
Made in His image, reflect His wonder
Cause me to wonder how can this be
Dare move my glance O God from Thee/

I am distracted, distracted be
My Father’s home sealed in me forever
Heaven in sight life directed be
This humble frame delights in Thee

Overwhelmed

I overwhelm you with My favor
You are overwhelmed with My love
When life at times overtakes you
Find My grace to overcome/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above/

Not by might, nor by power
But by My Spirit says the Lord
Once defeated now victorious
Standing in redeeming love/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above/

By faith Your word refining
Endurance taught my soul to long
Your perfect will birthed by Your Spirit
Steadfast love my great reward/

Overwhelmed by Your presence
Overwhelmed by Your love
Triumph came as You promised
Victory sent from heaven above
