Strong in your word

Make me strong in your word
Hold me safe in your love
I will live for you my Lord 

Created by you
Compelled by your grace
To go and make a change

How can I settle down
Hide away seek my own
When your love can change the world
Your Spirit is bigger
Than the fear that's inside of me

Rise up child of God
As his glory shines upon you
Do not be afraid
Let your weakness bring his strength

We will not stand in silence
We will not live in fear
We are the ones who have been redeemed
 

For love I surrender

I can't pretend to know it all 
but I know you love me
My hearts alive when you are near
Today I choose to put you first 
and let you lead the rest 
Let your mercy show me how to walk

For love I surrender
Your mercies made new
You cover me Lord in your love
Your praises unending
I'll join in the song
You break through the darkness my God

I fail and I stumble but I won't let go
I'm trusting your goodness to me
My God you are faithful in every domain
Your Spirit of freedom will reign

Be My Desire / Flow

BE MY DESIRE

Let your will be my desire Lord
Take my soul and fill it with peace
Speak to me teach me to hear your voice
Giving me hope, changing my life, leading me through

Be my desire
Be my provision
Teach me your wisdom
Be my God

Let your life be my provision Lord
Take my heart and fill it with love
All I am cherished by all you give
Holding me close, bringing me rest, leading me through

Let your Word teach me your wisdom Lord
Take my mind and fill it with truth
Every thought open to turn to you
Giving you praise, seeking your light, leading me through

Let me boast only in all you are
Take my spirit for your glory
Use my gifts and every weakness Lord
Reaching beyond, lifting you up, open to you

FLOW

I know the voice the brings me peace
My life enhanced by perfect love
I wander to the shore
I want to know you more
Lead me to the river's depths

Your love is like a river that will never let me drown
I'm reaching out,  I'm jumping in to flow with you
Your love is like a river it completely satisfies
It covers me, refreshes me, you bring me life

I know the joy that's in my heart
It's something to be thankful for
You give me all I need
I'll bring you heartfelt praise
Acknowledging this life with mine

Light of the world

There's a beauty in your love 
That softly speaks and makes me wonder
There's a treasure I can trust
If fills my heart and makes it prosper

Light of the world how you shine
Light of the world lifted high 
Shining to save, bring new life
Light of the world how you shine

There's a freedom we can't tame
It carries on hope never falters
There a peace I can't explain
Or comprehend it makes me stronger

There a fury I can feel
Love cut and heals it won't refrain
With a strength that breaks my fear
It doesn't fade or put my heart to shame

Fathers Day

Before You

You you overwhelm me
I'm satisfied I'm blessed by knowing you
You you touched my life
I'm qualified
To stand before you now

I will stand before you in surrender
You are God ill glorify your name

Set apart to go deeper with you
Here I am laying down 
For your light is the centre of all
And your freedom is my song 



Small

Embrace my heart. I feel your love. You captivate my soul.
You Word is strong. I hear you call. Your truth revealed to me.

All I have is small compared to you
But even now I lay it down
All to gaze on you your holiness
Father I surrender all

Your beauty finds a peace in fear that I can't understand. My hope will rest in who you are. Your promise full of grace

I can't explain your endless strength that finds me when I fall. I can't foresee I life of joy where you are not it's source. 

Father you know me
You love me, you hold me
Father you keep me
You hold me in your heart

There aren't books enough

I stumble, fall into your love
My freedom comes through giving up
I humbly call on you to save me

I walk in peace that flows from grace
I turn from sin to see your face
My joy abounds around your presence

Living hope arise in us
You fill our hearts
You're glorious
You reign with power and compassion
And we could sing unending songs
Of all you've done
And all you are
For there aren't books enough to hold them
