Hello, good morning, everyone underneath the glorious Son
I wrote a little song for you
Sometimes we forget we are the image of the Love of God
So please, if you don't mind, let me remind you
That we were made to love each other as a sister and a brother,
imitate perfection in this imperfect world

So, welcome to life; I hope you enjoy it
in between yesterday and tomorrow.
Welcome to life; I hope that you get it right

And on the way, I do confess we stumble, fall,
and make a mess of everything we try to hold dear.
So be honest when you pray, and maybe thank Him for today.

Let go of the future so unclear
Listen for the voice of mercy, cast out all your fear and worry
Can't you see you've only got room for the cross?

So, welcome to life; I hope you enjoy it
in between yesterday and tomorrow.
Welcome to life; I hope that you get it right

And you live and you'll die; you'll be honest and you'll lie.
Put you trust where the truth is and your treasure where you heart is.

So, welcome to life; I hope you enjoy it
in between yesterday and tomorrow.
Welcome to life; I hope that you get it--

And, welcome to life; I hope you enjoy it
in between yesterday and tomorrow.
Welcome to life; I hope that we get it right,
I hope that we get it right
I hope that I get it right

All Glory To God

Great is Your faithfulness, O God
You wrestle with the sinner's restless heart
You lead us by still waters into mercy
And nothing can keep us apart.

So, remember Your people,
Remember Your children,
Remember Your promise, O God.

Your grace is enough.
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is Your love and justice, God of Jacob
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of Your salvation
and all Your people sing along.

So, remember Your people,
Remember Your children,
Remember Your promise, O God.

Your grace is enough.
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Yeah, Your grace is enough.
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Remember Your people,
Remember Your children,
Remember Your promise, O God.

Your grace is enough.
Your grace is enough,
Your grace is enough for me

Yeah, Your grace is enough
Heaven reaches out to us,
Your grace is enough for me

God I sing your grace is enough
I'm covered in Your love
Your grace is enough for me, for me

It's enough for me

Forty days to wander
Forty days to die to self
Forty days to grow stronger
As faith breaks open the gates of hell
The jubilee is over
But grace is far from gone
In the hearts of the faithful
Broken on the wheels of love

'Cause in the dessert of temptation
Lies the storm of true conversion
Where springs of living water drown and refresh you
And as the Jordan pours out change
Your true self is all that remains
Where springs of living water bind and break you
Bind and break you

Forty days to remember
The Paschal Sacrifice
Forty days to discover
His passion calls us to new life
The jubilee is over
But mercy's far from gone
In the arms of the Father
As the wayward child comes home

'Cause in the dessert of temptation
Lies the storm of true conversion
Where springs of living water drown and refresh you
And as the Jordan pours out change
Your true self is all that remains
Where springs of living water bind and break you
Bind and break you

Bind and break you
Bind and break you

. . .


The spirit of the Lord God is upon me
Because the Lord has anointed me
He has sent me to bring glad tidings to the poor,
To heal the broken hearted
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And release to the prisoners
To announce a year of favor from the Lord
And a day of vindication by our God
And a day of vindication by our God

So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Justice and praise, justice and praise
So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Spring up before the nations

I rejoice solemnly in the Lord
In the Lord is the joy of my soul
For he has clothed me with the robe of salvation
And wrapped me in a mantle of justice
Like a bridegroom adorned with a diadem
Like a bride bedecked with her jewels
As the earth springs forth its plants
And the garden makes its growth spring up
And the garden makes its growth spring up

So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Justice and praise, justice and praise
So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Spring up before the nations

So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Justice and praise, justice and praise
So will the Lord God let justice and praise,
Spring up before the nations

Adonai elohenu, melech
Adonai elohenu, melech
Adonai elohenu, melech
Adonai elohenu, melech

I've been looking for a reason
I've been longing for a purpose
Losing all my meaning
Run out of excuses

Lord it's hard to know you
I don't always see your plan
But holiness is calling me
So take me as I am

'Cause you are my everything
You are the song I sing
I'll do anything for you
Teach me how to pray
To live a life of grace
I'll go anywhere for you
Jesus be my everything

Lord I get so tired
Of the struggle within
I settle in complacency
And I;m weighed down in my sins

So lead me past emotion
'Cause they change with the wind
I want to be a true disciple
To daily choose your hand

'Cause you are my everything
You are the song I sing
I'll do anything for you
Teach me how to pray
To live a life of grace
I'll go anywhere for you

You are my everything
You are the song I sing
I'll do anything for you
Teach me how to pray
To live a life of grace
I'll go anywhere for you
Jesus be my everything

Jesus be my everything
Jesus be my everything

. . .


(Let the walls fall down)

How could I be silent anymore
For all you are and all you've done, my Lord
How could I bow down to anyone but you
In my heart I'll make an altar
For you alone to dwell forever
In my heart I only want to live for you
And my soul cries out to you
Yeah, my soul cries out to you

You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you, forever will I sing
You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you at the sound of your name

The world of man will rise and fall
Under the weight of your great love
And every one will praise your name for you are God
All your children will return
To the table of the Lord
And everyone will praise your name for you are God
I will stake my claim in you
I will stake my claim in you

You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you, forever will I sing
You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you at the sound of your name
At the sound of your name

Let the walls fall down at the sound of your name
Let the earth bow down at the sound of your name
Let your people pray at the sound of your name
Let your glory fall at the sound of your name

You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you, forever will I sing
You are beautiful, glorious, wonderful, Lord Jesus
Forever will I worship you at the sound of your name

At the sound of your name
At the sound of your name
At the sound of your name
At the sound of your name

Riding down the streets of envy
Looking for some recognition
What would make me really happy:
If they desired my position

Prom time princess, beauty queen
See all the admiring faces
Chasing after blind ambition
They don't see the King of heaven's graces

'Cause what I need is You, what I need is truth
Can someone tell me that for a change?
Nothing ever holds in a world lukewarm
So come and fill the empty space inside of me

Wish upon a falling star
And dream of your perfection
It fades away held up against your failures
And dying to self opinion

'Cause what I need is You, what I need is truth
Can someone tell me that for a change?
Nothing ever holds in a world lukewarm
So come and fill the empty space inside of me
Of me

Beauty's on the late-night T.V.
Showing off the next big thing
Turn it off, I'm lost
I forgot who I was
Jesus won't you tell me I'm worth something?

'Cause what I need is You, what I need is truth
Can someone tell me that for a change?
Nothing ever holds in a world lukewarm
So come and fill the empty space inside of me

What I need is You, what I need is truth
Can someone tell me that for a change?
Nothing ever holds in a world lukewarm
So come and fill the empty space inside of me

. . .


She's so, you know
Makes me want to be like Jesus
I am your hands
Tell me what your plan for this is

In your sacred heart, I burn for you
Could I burn with her in a flame of truth
Where all my burdens float like an angel feather?

Sophia, you know me
Sophia, you see through me
Sophia, dance with me
Help me make it through the night

Dark night, so bright
Now I see the way of passion
Let go, my soul
Now it only longs for your affection

In your sacred heart, I dwell with you
Could I dwell with her like the angels do
Where all my burdens float like an angel feather

Sophia, you know me
Sophia, you see through me
Sophia, dance with me
Help me make it through the night

Help me make it through the night
Help me make it through the night

Sophia, Sophia
Sophia, Sophia

Sophia, Sophia
Sophia, Sophia

Sophia, Sophia

Set me as a seal on your heart
Set me as a seal on your soul
As strong as death is love
Unyielding as the grave
Nothing will quench its flame
Nothing will quench its flame

Set me as a seal on your heart
Set me as a seal on your soul
As strong as death is love
Unyielding as the grave
Nothing will quench its flame
Nothing will quench its flame

Kiss me, my love
That your name be on my lips
You intoxicate my being
With the fragrance of your presence

How beautiful you are, my darling
Show me your face, let me hear your voice
Sweet as the dew in the early morn'
Like a lily among the thorns

Set me as a seal on your heart
Set me as a seal on your soul
As strong as death is love
Unyielding as the grave
Nothing will quench its flame
Nothing will quench its flame

I looked for you, the one my heart loves
I looked for you but did not find you
Searched through the night
Until I rested in your sight
Now I will never let you go

'Cause you have stolen my heart
My sister, my bride
You've stolen my heart
With one glance of your eyes
Your lips so sweet, adorned with honey
My hands, they drip with myrrh

Set me as a seal on your heart
Set me as a seal on your soul
As strong as death is love
Unyielding as the grave
Nothing will quench its flame
Nothing will quench its flame

Nothing will quench its flame

. . .


I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength

I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength

My heart, it longs to be with you
And nothing else will ever do
So at your throne is where I'll be
'Cause your flesh and blood consumes me
And I am one with you

I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength
I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength

My stronghold, my refuge
Your righteousness will see me through
In dark of night and thorn of sin
I will stay close to you, my friend
And I am one with you

And I am one, yes, I am one,
And I am one with you

I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength
I love you Lord, I love you Lord
I love you Lord, you are my strength

You are my strength

I love you, I love you Lord
I love you, I love you Lord
I love you

. . .


Thank You for the cross
Thank You for Your love
The perfect sacrifice
Of praise to God above
Thank You for the gift
Thank You for the price
Of losing everything
to gain eternal life

Thank You
Thank You
Thank You

Thank You for Your joy
Thank You for the pain
Of longing for peace
In my suffering
Thank You for my hunger
For my poverty
So I would fall into the arms of mercy

Every road leads back to You
Every journey lies in You, so

CHORUS
Lead me home my lover, savior (lead me home)
Lead me home my master, redeamer (lead me home)
Lead me home and I will rest in You

I praise You when I'm broken
I praise You when I'm lost
That it would keep me honest
In need of You alone
I praise You for the past
For the mess of sin
I would never want
To turn from You again

Every road leads back to You
Every journey lies in You, so

REPEAT CHORUS

Lead me home (lead me home, lead me home)
Lead me home (lead me home, lead me home)
Lead me home (lead me home, lead me home)

Every road leads back to You
Every journey lies in You, so

REPEAT CHORUS 2x

Lead me home and I will rest in You
Lead me home and I will rest in You (Jesus lead me home)
I will rest in You (Lead me home I will rest in You, I will rest in You)
