He Saves
04:21
|
|||
VERSE
our fall we see it in the way we fight for self
our light gave death the call he's often given out
our foe has had his trophy stripped by the all-wise
our past has sunk through darkened seas, never to rise
CHORUS
he saves he saves and all of it by grace
his throne is in the sky and in the tomb
he saves he saves and all of it by grace
his throne is here and yet it's coming soon
VERSE 2
a hope, that fires cannot scorch or waters drown
we all will know the grace or wrath of his good crown
an end, to all the things not right, made new again
we've held the truth in fickle hearts, and want it plain
BRIDGE
our sands are his mountain our beads of sweat, his ocean
our efforts will not do

I Need You
04:51
|
|||
VERSE
I want to learn to walk and follow all your ways
your word is like a shining guide through dying days
my heart is so deceitful lying to my face
tells me all the things I want besides your saving grace
CHORUS
Oh I need you Lord I need you
the one who calmed the storms
to calm the storms in me
Oh I need you Lord I need you
the one who is the light
to light the dark in me
VERSE 2
I taste a hint of death on every single breath
and I shuffle tired feet with every single step
but I'll trust in you, your word, your life, your promises
my glory and the lifter of my head
BRIDGE
Irrevocable and strong are your covenants oh God
and the love that you have shown is the only hope I own
set my gaze upon the cross and rejoice at satan's loss
for my victory is won by my Savior, God the Son

My Soul Knows
03:35
|
|||
VERSE
some would say our sin is small
the cross is long ago
his love is false and he has turned away
He would say our sin is great
the cross is where we see
his love is near and he has reached to me.
CHORUS
my soul knows there are no chains that hold me
if the father holds me He holds me oh oh (repeat)
VERSE 2
my foe will say you've lost the race
you've wandered far from home
you don't deserve another day of grace
i will say you words are right but you forget the rest
the Son was slain and rose against your death
BRIDGE
my past has weighed me down
my sin has brought on death
but he called me his own
and brought me home instead
CHORUS 2
my soul knows, doubts will rise inside me
but my savior will guide me
my soul knows, there are no sins that haunt me
if the father wants me, He wants me

Sunken Pages
04:10
|
|||
VERSE
a stone inside enough left for my flesh to hide
curse myself and then the skies I muddle lies and truth
you pulled me out of all my vanity and doubt
but mirrors and questions hang about they blur my sight of you
CHORUS
its harder than I thought it would be
VERSE 2
my best support to sit and see that i am yours
to sit and be your child adored the mist and fog ascends
i read each line but i forget in equal time
the truth you've made and sealed as mine i clutch and drop again
VERSE 3
and now i stand on gold with light around my head
i see his face and see his hands my joy is made complete
and now i find that i now can't recall to mind
the falls and all the tears i cried those books sank in the sea

Grace Greater
03:14
|
|||
VERSE
Marvelous grace of our loving Lord
Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt
Over on cal - vary's mount out poured
there where the blood of the lamb was spilt
VERSE 2
Dark is the stain that we cannot hide Who can succeed to wash it away?
Favor is ours, an unceasing tide Pure as the snow my soul's been made
CHORUS
Grace, Grace, Oh God's Grace
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within
Grace, Grace, Oh God's Grace
Grace that is greater than all our sin
VERSE 3
Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold
threaten the soul with infinite loss
The Son achieved, the good Father's goal
The Spirit seals, those behind the Cross

Stricken Smitten
04:27
|
|||
VERSE
Stricken, smitten, and afflicted, See Him dy—ing on the tree!
it's the Christ by man rejected; Yes, my soul, it's He, it's He!
It's the long expected prophet, David’s Son, yet David’s Lord;
By His Son, God now has spoken: He's the true and faithful Word.
CHORUS
pierced and crushed for our peace
by his wounds we're healed
the Father gave, His son to save
the Spirit he has sealed
VERSE 2
You who think of sin but lightly, Nor suppose the evil great,
Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate.
Mark the Sacrifice appointed! See Who bears the awful load!
’Tis the Word, the Lord’s Anointed, Son of Man, and Son of God
VERSE 3
Lamb of God for sinners wounded! Sacrifice to cancel guilt!
None shall ever be confounded Who on Him their hope have built.
BRIDGE
Here we have a firm foundation, Here the refuge of the lost.
Christ’s the Rock of our salvation, His the Name of which we boast

Strong to Keep
04:34
|
|||
VERSE
the same to save us, is strong to keep
under the care of our good King
no one can take us out from his hand
yet we still fight what wars within
CHORUS
we are quick to stray you are good to save
keep saving us
we are quick to stray you are good to save
VERSE 2
His heart is hunting as it gives chase
our sin and doubt can not keep pace
He can awaken that which has died
we are the scent of Life inside
BRIDGE
Breathe out the death and don't try to keep it in
you're suffocating the natural sequence
breathe in the life he gives open your mouth again
and let the light pour in He keeps on saving

I Am Broken (Psalm 102)
03:56
|
|||
VERSE
I am a sparrow, and sitting alone
atop a place that's not my own
My pain is burning my life an evening
where is my dawn? when can faith be seeing?
CHORUS
These things will not remain
His love remains,
I am broken, but I am hopeful
VERSE 2
I have been lifted I have been shaken
and I crashed down from where I was taken
Your face is hidden your strength delayed
these shortened days now feel suff-o-cating
BRIDGE/OUTRO
these things will not remain
his love remains,
Oh my God, take me not away
