The Overcomer

My God Is Greater

My God Is Greater

In the morning He raises up the sun
Out of its slumber into the sky
The birds fill the air with their song
Hallelujahs while they fly
All creation shows His majesty
The stars in heaven shine His light
As I see the wonder of it all
I know He’s greater, my God is greater

CHORUS 1
My God is greater than all my doubt
Greater than all my fear
Greater than anything that comes my way
I know I always can trust His grace
No matter what each day brings
My God is greater.  My God is greater

Then when the evening comes
He paints the sky in brilliant hues
The majesty that is displayed
Brings tears unto my eyes because I know
My God is greater

CHORUS 2
My God is greater than all my sin
Greater than all my shame
Greater than all my failures and mistakes
I know I always can trust His grace
No matter what each day brings
My God is greater.  My God is greater

Greater than my enemy. Greater than my disease
Greater than my unbelief. Greater than all my fears
Greater than any trial. Greater than any pain
When I’m falling down, He picks me up again (REPEAT)

And I will praise Him.  I will praise Him.  I will praise Him.  I will praise His name (REPEAT)

CHORUS 1

CHORUS 2

End – repeat “My God is greater”

He Wants No Less

You Amaze Me

Out of the ashes. Out of the night
Out of the darkness. I come to you

Out of my sin. Out of my pain
Out of my weakness. I come to you

CHORUS
You wait for me to come to you
I stand amazed at your great love
You died for me when I was lost
What a gracious God you are
What a gracious God you are

Into your presence. Into your light
Into your Spirit. I come to you

CHORUS

BRIDGE
You amaze me
You amaze me
You amaze me by your mercy Lord (REPEAT)

CHORUS

He Show Up

Though I’ve fallen once again on this journey
I’ve forgotten how to pick myself up
So I cry out to the Lord in my trouble
He shows up.  He shows up

It’s amazing that in spite of my failure
He still loves me just the way I am
Every time I need a boost from my Savior
He shows up.  He show up

CHORUS

He shows up when I am weary
He shows up when I am down
He shows up when I am reeling
In my fog of sin and doubt
He shows up and leans down to me
He shows up and lifts me out
When I cry out to the Lord
He shows up

I will do my best to follow in His ways
He has shown me what the best path is
I know that if I slip and fall again
He’ll show up.  He’ll show up

CHORUS

BRIDGE

All I have to do is cry out to Him
All I have to do is say His name
He will come and lift me out of trouble
He will come to save the day
