Bless Me Indeed (Prayer of Jabez)
Lord, Remember Me
In this quiet place,
Where I’m feeling torn in two.
Tears run down my face.
Lord, I’ve been so far from you.
I long to call your name.
I don’t know just how to ask.
Lord, remember me.
I’m broken from within,
When to the world I have it all.
How do I begin
To trust you and not fear the fall?
Help my unbelief.
Help me give my life to you.
Lord, remember me.
I want to be like a child who believes
My father has all I need –
Safe and secure
With faith true and pure.
Lord, remember me.
Heal my wounded soul.
Free the fear that shrouds my heart.
Help me yield control.
Never let us be apart.
Lord, I want to know
The freedom that you offer me.
Lord, remember me.
Lord, please help me.
Lord, I need you.
Lord, remember me.

Draw Near
Draw near, Believers,
draw near to God
And He will draw near
to you.
Humble yourselves,
Believer, to the Lord
And He will exalt
your name.
Submit your lives to
God
And cleanse your hand
And purify your
hearts for him.
(repeat from top)
Draw near, Believers,
draw near to God
And He will draw near
to you.

Lead Me On
Lead me on.
Guide my way.
Lead me on, dear Lord.
I wanna make it to the judgment day.
Lead me on.
Help me stand.
Lead me on, dear Lord.
I wanna meet you in the promised land.
A new heaven, new earth.
A spiritual rebirth.
Where death has lost its sting
and all my tears will turn to singing.
[chorus]
Alpha and Omega be
the first and the last for me.
Water from the living spring
brings hope restored, new life beginning.
[chorus]
Praise be, to you
the God who makes
all things new.
Guide me, by your hand
and lead me into that
promised land.
[chorus]
No more darkness,
no more night.
The glory of God is the light.
Praise and hallelujahs ring
and Jesus Christ is radiance beaming.

Air
When I think upon my life before I knew you,
well, it’s a wonder I had any life at all.
You came in amidst my darkest of moments,
with your arms outstretched to catch me as I fall.
You were my life, my strength, my hope.
You were the air that I’d breathe.
When I ponder all the blessings you have given me,
and the ways that I’ve responded in return,
I’m amazed by the mercy you have shown to me.
‘Cause I know it’s so much more than I deserve.
You were my life, my strength, my hope.
You were the air that I’d breathe.
You were my life my strength, my hope.
You were the air that I’d breathe.
Now, when I’m doubtful that I can succeed,
I see that you are all I need, because
You’re still my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.
You are my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.
So you taught me how to love without condition
by the way you love me in my troubled days.
Knowing you has brought such light and peace into my
world.
Now my heart is filled with joy and sings your
praise.
You are my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.
You are my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.
Though I often fail to let it show,
I’m thankful that somehow you know that
You are my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.
You are my life, my strength, my hope.
You are the air that I breathe.

Follow the
Light
Over hills of sorrow,
down the servant’s road
crossing streams of teachings,
burdened by the load.
Worn out from the journey,
wearied by the strain,
I will trust in Jesus.
He my life sustains.
I will follow, faithful in the fight.
I will follow the Light.
I will go, Lord. I’ll Your servant be.
I will go where You lead.
Into far off places
where I feel alone
meeting strangers’ glances
yearning for my home.
Treading through new trials,
ragged from the pain.
I will trust in Jesus.
He my life sustains.
[chorus]
Though the way grows dim
I will wait on Him.
Christ, my source of light,
lead me through this night.
God, You are my Shepherd,
and You know my needs.
You will not forsake me,
but in love will lead.
Though I walk in darkness,
nothing will I fear.
You’re my peace and comfort.
You are always near, (so. . .)

Psalm 19
Oh God you are amazing:
You set the heavens blazing;
Night and day they’re praising
Your great name.
They have no speech and no words;
they have no voice to be heard,
and yet their message endured
just the same.
I hope my words and my thoughts
please You,
‘cause You’re my Rock and the
One who sees me through.
Your perfect Word makes me strong.
It fills my heart with Your song,
and gives me light for the long
path ahead.
Your laws will last forever.
They’re righteous altogether.
And keeping them, I’ll never
be misled. [chorus]
I can’t always see within.
Lord forgive my secret sin.
When I can’t see how I’ve been,
Christ, forgive me once again.
Keep me from the ways of pride.
Don’t let them rule me from inside.
Find the places where they hide
so by Your grace I’m purified. (to top)

Goin' Where
You're Leadin' Me Blues
Ever since You called me by name
my life ain't never been the same.
You bid come, and so I came to You.
Now my life is a cryin' shame,
('cause) my plans don't fit with Your time frame.
I've got those goin' where You're leadin' me blues.
Sometimes I think I may have lost my mind
to leave my six figure job behind
to choose this life You have designed for me.
Won't You give a signal, send down a sign?
'Cause I feel I'm out here following blind.
I've got those goin' where You're leadin' me blues.
Sold my house that I couldn't afford.
Swapped my truck for a used Accord.
I gave my dog that I so adored away.
All so I could go where You're callin' me, Lord,
'cause You said my faith would be my reward.
I've got those goin' where You're leadin' me blues.
Listen God, I don't mean to nag
but would You give a sign? Send up a flag?
This life of faith can be a drag, you know?
I suffer permanently from jet lag.
Delta Air has lost another bag.
I've got those goin' where You're leadin' me blues.
I've got those goin' where You're leadin' me blues.

Anything
Yea, though I walk
through the valley of death, I’ll sing.
For the Lord is my
shepherd, and I shall not fear a
thing.
I know I can do
anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
Through walls of fire
I shall pass and not be burned.
For I’m shielded by
God’s gracious love that I never earned.
I know I can do
anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
When the waters rise,
Or sorrows cloud my
eyes,
When I strain to see,
God shows me
I can do anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
If I’m imprisoned, my
spirit will still be free.
For no persecution
can separate Jesus from me.
I know I can do
anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
When foes assail me,
I’ll lift up their names in prayer.
I will offer
forgiveness and treat them with love and
care.
I know I can do
anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
Though I may be weak
My future’s looking
bleak
Christ will carry me
And tell me
I can do anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of
life.
When I am tested, I
won’t let my heart despair.
For my faith builds
endurance to carry the load I bear.
I know I can do
anything,
Through him who
strengthens me,
Jesus my source of life. (repeat chorus)

If You Love Me
I heard Messiah was found
and so I went out to see
this one whose head would be crowned
on the cross at Calvary.
With gentle voice he turned my way
and gave me a brand new name.
How could I know what I would say,
how Jesus I would disclaim?
“Do you love me?”
Lord, You know I do.
“But do you love me?”
Christ, You know it’s true.
“But do you love me?”
What more can I do?
“If you love me, then you will follow me.”
He washed my feet and called me blessed.
I said that for him, I’d die.
I made a scene at his arrest,
then, frightened, I did deny.
When on the third day, He arose,
my heart could once beat again.
His death has conquered my foes,
and freed me of all my sin.
“Do you love me?”
Lord, You know I do.
“But do you love me?”
Christ, You know it’s true.
“But do you love me?”
What more can I do?
“If you love me, then you will follow me.”
What joy to know where e’er I roam,
there from the shore, Christ calls me home.
“Do you love me?”
Lord, You know I do.
“But do you love me?”
Christ, You know it’s true.
“But do you love me?”
What more can I do?
“If you love me, then you will follow me.”
“You’ll follow me. You’ll follow me.”

Listening Heart
Give me a listening heart
so I can hear.
Give me a faithful mind
so I won’t fear.
Give me a fervent voice
to call You near.
Give me a steadfast stride
to persevere.
Give to me Your eyes
so I can be wise.
Give me a humble stance
so I’ll endear.
Give me a joyful mouth
so I’ll spread cheer.
Give me a loyal soul
to hold You dear.
Give me a gentle touch
to be sincere.
Give to me Your eyes
so I can be wise.

There is No
Other Name
There is no other
name under heaven that gives us salvation.
Jesus, the Savior,
you reign, o’er my heart and o’er ev’ry nation.
And we sing glory to

And alleluia to the
risen son.
You’re the way to
eternity. Christ, beside You, there is none.

My Soul
Magnifies the Lord
In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was
sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to
a virgin engaged to a man whose name was Joseph.
The virgin’s name was Mary. And he came to her and
said, “Greetings, favored one! Thee Lord is with
you.” But she was much perplexed by his words and
pondered what sort of greeting this might be. The
angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you
have found favor with God. And now, you will
conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you will
name him Jesus. He will be great, and will be
called the Son of the Most High, and the Lord God
will give to him the throne of his ancestor David.
He will reign over the house of Jacob forever, and
of his kingdom there will be no end.” Mary said to
the angel, “how can this be, since I am a virgin?”
The angel said to her, “The Holy Spirit will come
upon you, and the power of the Most High will
overshadow you; therefore the child to be born will
be holy; he will be called Son of God. For nothing
will be impossible with God.” Then Mary said, “Here
am I, the servant of the Lord; let it be with me
according to your word.”
My soul magnifies the Lord
And my spirit rejoices in my Savior.
I am blessed, for God looked on me with
favor.
My soul magnifies the Lord.
Magnificat Anima Mea Dominum.
My soul magnifies the Lord
For great things has the Father done for me
And my name shall be blessed for all
eternity.
My soul magnifies the Lord.
Magnificat Anima Mea Dominum.
My soul magnifies the Lord.
My soul magnifies the Lord.
My soul magnifies the Lord.

Light of Truth
May my life be a light of truth
That shines in the darkness for You.
And may my voice singing out Your truth
Bring joy to the hopeless for You.
(echo) Joy to the hopeless for You.
For we are blessed when we are giving,
And in our death, we're born to live.
Lord, grant that I may not seek for my own comfort,
Nor yearn to be understood.
Lord, help me be a disciple of compassion,
In love, in faith, in deed, and word.
May my life be a light of truth
That shines in the darkness for You.
And may my voice singing out Your truth
Bring joy to the hopeless for You.
(echo) I want to be a light for You.

Seek and You Shall Find
Seek, and you shall find.

For God has called us in righteousness
to live our lives in faithfulness.
With faith, we can move mountains,
For in God, we are blessed.

Holy is the Great I Am
I am the life and the resurrection.
I am sent from the Father to show you His love.

I am the shepherd who gave up his life for you.
I am living bread raining down from above.
I am the vine, and you will never die
when you live in me.

I'm So Conflicted
I'm so conflicted all the time.
I follow Jesus in my mind,
but in my flesh, I act so differently
'cause that sin's got a hold over me.
Why do I do what I don't wanna do
and I don't do what I want?
Praise for my savior in Jesus the Christ
who saves me from myself,
'cause Lord knows I need help!

No Condemnation
There is now therefore no condemnation;

I'm free from sin when I follow Christ
who died on the cross so that I will have life.
There is now therefore no condemnation;
I do believe in Christ, my salvation. (repeat)
Oh, the Spirit is life,
for I am a child of God.

To Drop Our Nets
To drop our nets and follow You -
We long to be disciples true
to what You call us each to do.
This is our prayer.
Like James and John at the Sea of Galilee,
who laid down their nets when you said "come follow me." [chorus]
Like Paul who was in captivity,
who wrote to us "in Your truth, we will be free." [chorus]
Help us freely leave the lives that we know,
to hear and to heed
your command that we should go
And drop our nets to follow You
so we may be disciples true
to what You call us each to do.
This is our prayer.

Peace, Be Still
"Peace, Be still."
That is what Jesus cried
to calm the winds
and smooth the tide.
He said, "Why are you afraid?"
He said, "Have you still no faith?"
Peace, Be still.
Settle this storm inside.
Waves crashing in
and fear abides.
Oh Lord, why am I afraid?
Tell me, am I short on faith?
Help me, Lord, believe and trust in You.
Peace, Be still.
Quiet my thoughts of doubt.
Help me to hear
Your voice cry out.
You say, "Do not be afraid."
You say, "I'll show you the way.
I won't let you stumble,
when you step in faith."
"Peace, Be still."
That is what Jesus cried.

and walk within your ways.

and on my lips be praise.

My God, but
renew me.

Ordinary Things
[chorus]
It's the ordinary things of our ordinary lives
that display the greatness of our God above.
It's the ordinary things of our ordinary lives,
so that, when we open up our eyes we see
The extraordinary love of God.
In our friendships and our families,
in love's warm embrace.
In our joys and in our trials, and when someone shows us grace. [chorus]
In our wealth and in our poverty,
in cold winter's rain.
When we're helpless and we're hopeless, and we feel the sting of pain. [chorus]
In the blooming flowers and cloudless skies,
in children at play.
In our sleeping and our waking. In the work that fills our day. [chorus]

Come Home
In the world on your own,
You're lost in the wilderness.
And you feel so alone
With a heart full of heaviness.
Come home.
You're broken and ashamed
By the burdens you carry.
Turn to me - call my name,
And feel the joy within me.
Come home. Seek me. Come home.
Though your life be defiled,
I will always love you.
You're my prodigal child,
And I yearn for you to . . .
Come home.
I'll dress you in finest things
And celebrate your life anew.
Hear heaven and angels sing
To rejoice that I've found you.
Come home. I'm here. Come home.

There is a season to everything.
And every matter has its own time.
A time to be born, and a time to die.
A time to sow seed, and a time to reap. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]
A time to kill, and a time to heal.
A time to break down, and a time to build up. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]

A time to mourn, and a time to dance. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]
A time to seek, and a time to lose.
A time to keep, and a time to spend. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]
A time to tear, and a time to mend.
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]

A time for war, and a time for peace. Seasons, seasons of change. [chorus]
