I'm not the same
I have been changed
By the power of Christ
The truth in my life
I can't explain
The difference He's made
Old things have gone something new has begun

[Chorus:]
This is the day of my salvation
I will rejoice with a song of praise
This is the day of my salvation
I will rejoice in Christ, my salvation

I'm not the same
I have been changed
The hope that I've found
Has turned me around
I finally feel
Forgiveness that's real
This thankful heart gets a brand new start

[Bridge:]
Come, let us be glad
Come, let us rejoice

. . .


You have shown us what is holy
How to bless the Father's heart
To act justly, and love mercy
To walk humbly with our God

This is who you are

Friend of sinners, our deliverer
Jesus, Savior of the world
Came to serve and love the lost
Sent from heaven, King of Glory
Yet the servant of us all

So give us hearts to help the widow
Give us hands that feed the poor
Give us words that bring your healing
To this hurt and broken world

Cause this is who you are

In kindness and meekness
You've revealed the Father's heart
Our servant, our Savior
Is who you are…

. . .


You are justice for every oppression
You're forgiveness for every confession
You are beauty, goodness, blessing
You are love

You are healing for every sickness
You are power in every weakness
You are mighty, holy, faithful,
You are love

O God of the Heavens
You descended from your throne
Gave Your Son for our ransom
And by this all men will know that You are love.

We were thirsty, you gave us water
We were orphans, now you are our Father
We were desperate, hungry, seeking
You are love

[Bridge:]
Everlasting, Never ending
All consuming, You are love

. . .


Atoning Sacrifice, keeper of this life
Hallelujah, You are Savior
Beginning and the end, forgiver of my sin
By your mercy, You have saved us

Jesus, You are stronger, more than any other
Hallelujah, what a Savior
Jesus, You are higher, my soul's deepest desire
Hallelujah, You are Savior

You are the shepherd King, You lead us by still waters
Hallelujah, You are Savior
You are my only hope, Your kindness is my friend
In Your presence, You restore us

[Chorus:]
You are the way, the truth and the life
You are my joy and my salvation
Stood in my place, taking my shame
Upon Your shoulders

. . .


We pray for blessings
We pray for peace
Comfort for family, protection while we sleep
We pray for healing, for prosperity
We pray for Your mighty hand to ease our suffering
All the while, You hear each spoken need
Yet love is way too much to give us lesser things

'Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops
What if Your healing comes through tears
What if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know You're near
What if trials of this life are Your mercies in disguise

We pray for wisdom
Your voice to hear
We cry in anger when we cannot feel You near
We doubt your goodness, we doubt your love
As if every promise from Your Word is not enough
All the while, You hear each desperate plea
And long that we'd have faith to believe

When friends betray us
When darkness seems to win
We know that pain reminds this heart
That this is not our home

What if my greatest disappointments
Or the aching of this life
Is the revealing of a greater thirst this world can't satisfy
What if trials of this life
The rain, the storms, the hardest nights
Are your mercies in disguise

. . .


From the rising sun
To the end of the day
Your name will be praised, Jesus
Your name will be praised

From the prophets of old
To the mouths of babes
Your name will be praised, Jesus
Your name will be praised

[Chorus:]
Glory to You, exalted One
Who gave Your life away
Glory to You, our Risen King
Jesus, Your name will be praised
Your name will be praised

For the gift of new life
For your mercy each day
Your name will be praised, Jesus
Your name will be praised

Through the darkest of nights
When we can't find our way
We will walk by faith not sight, Lord
Your name will be praised

For who You are
For what You've done
For what You've yet to do
This song we raise
This day we proclaim, all glory to you?

. . .


I'm torn again, between my pride, my old friend
And who You've called me to be
I've sworn again to lay it down, to bring an end
To this life lived for me
For I've one life to lose, one chance to find
A newer, better me, the old one left behind
For there's one Lord who leads, though steep the cost
I have learned when I am lost, it's there that I am found

I am found as Your daughter, as Your child
As one purchased by Your blood
Though there's nothing I can add
To such a perfect sacrifice
How can I offer You, less than all my life

I have learned when I am lost, it's there that I am found

. . .


Henry loves the ballpark
But lately he ain't coming round
Things have been so different
Since his youngest boy left town

Fighting seem so harmless
Families sometimes disagree
It's hard to know the reason
Why he finally chose to leave
But he's gone away
And his father waits

[Chorus:]
And he is watching and he is hoping
Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open
And his prayer, so softly spoken
Please come home

Now Henry sits and wonders
In that front porch rocking chair
Does his boy remember
All the love the family shared
And is he cold
Out there alone

[Chorus:]
And he is watching and he is hoping
Though his eyes are weary, his arms are still open
And his prayer, so softly spoken
Please come home

To your seat at the table
To your father who weeps
Every night in sleepless dreams
He longs to see
His face in younger skin
Running down the driveway again.

. . .


This is the body that was torn for us
This is the blood that was spilt
Points to the pain you endured for us
Points to the shame, the blame, the guilt

Father, Son and Holy Spirit come
Move our hearts to remember

This is the Lamb who was slain for us
So we the church may enter in
So bitter sweet when we think of You
The One who bore our curse, our sin

. . .


May the grace that sought my heart on that first day
Be the grace that binds my heart to stay
May the truth that opened up my eyes on that first time
Be the thoughts on my mind that never go away

For You are a lamp to my feet
A light to my path
You're the hand that's holding me

Faithful God, every promise kept
Every need You've met, Faithful God
All I am and all I'll ever be
Is all because You love faithfully
Faithful God

May the love that caught my heart to set it free
Be the love that others see in me
And may this hope that's reaches to the depths of human need
Be the song that I sing in joy and suffering

For you are the love that never leaves
The friend that won't deceive
You're the one sure thing
How deep, how wide the love
That pierced His side, the love
Redemption's mine, O Love that will not let me go.
