Your Loving Plan

You Are Greater, Lord

Leave a reply 
I come before you now down on my knees
Hoping that you’ll hear my humble pleas
I know that I do not deserve your grace
But yet I pray and seek your holy face

I need a touch, Lord, down in my soul
I need a restoration that will make me whole
I’ve fallen far away from you
I really don’t know what to do
Except to come and bow before your throne

I know that you can bring me through the loudest storm
I know that you can make the raging sea be calm
I know that nothing is too hard for you to do
I lift my hands and lift my voice to worship you

I need a touch, Lord, down in my soul
I need a restoration that will make me whole
I’ve fallen far away from you
I really don’t know what to do
Except to come and bow before your throne

Great are you, Lord
Great are you, Lord
Greater than my doubts.  Greater than my fears
Greater than my troubles and my tears
Greater than the battle that I face
You are greater, Lord.  You are greater

Great are you, Lord
Great are you, Lord
Greater than this mountain in my way.
Greater than the biggest trial I face
Greater than the storms.  Greater over all
Your are greater, Lord.  You are greater

You bring victory.  You bring victory
You bring victory when I am on my knees
You bring victory.  You bring victory
You bring victory and hear my humble plea
All That I Need

Great Disgrace

What else can I do but be myself
I cannot just copy somebody else
I have to rely on what the Lord has given me

But I often I think this life is hard
I try to pretend that I am smart
And now I am falling hard and no one will rescue me

Help me to see the path that I have walked
Help me to learn the voice that leads me to the dark
Help me to leave my foolish pride behind admitting my mistakes
And humbly bow before your throne in great disgrace

Have mercy, Lord, on me
I bow down at your feet and humbly plea
I didn’t listen.  I wasn’t wise
I could not see the enemy’s eyes
Have mercy, precious Lord, on me

Now I know what to do with this mess
I come to you now and I confess
Greed and alluring talk of grandeur led me astray

I will walk out of my despair
I will come up and small the air
You shine a light along my path to show me the way

You help me see the path that I have walked
You help me learn the voice that led me to the dark
You help me leave my foolish pride behind and look on up ahead
There you await with open arms and calm my fear

Have mercy, Lord on me
I bow down at your feet and humbly plea
I will now listen.  I’ll open my eyes
I will turn to you to help me be wise
Have mercy, precious Lord, on me
Beside Me

Beside Me

Leave a reply 
Here you are right beside me
Through the trial, through the storm
Never leaving, always with me
Even when I feel alone

When I'm walking through the valley
Or climbing up a mountain 
Or drowning in the deepest sea
You are always right there with me
You are always beside me

Lord of heaven, God of wonders 
You have made the stars above 
On your throne in royal splendor 
You pour out to me your live

Help me, Lord, to see your mercy 
Help me recognize your grace 
When I hear your voice within me
Help me see your loving face

Help me know you're here beside me
Through the wind and through the rain 
Help me see your arms wide open
Holding me close once again

When I'm walking through the valley
Or climbing up a mountain 
Or drowning in the deepest sea
You are always right there with me
You are always beside me
The Overcomer

Jesus, Only Jesus

My eyes have seen His glory in the colors of the dawn
My ears have heard Him whisper in my ear
My spirit knows His presence when He walks with me each day
Every single moment He is near

My life has turned around since I met Him on that day
My future has a hope that is secure
My way is not important but it’s His I follow now
Only good will come from Him, of this I’m sure

Now it’s Jesus, only Jesus
Who satisfies the longings of my heart
Jesus, only Jesus
Who leads me on this journey through the dark
Jesus, only Jesus
He knows what I will face along the way
Jesus, only Jesus
Can bring me through the storms with joy and grace

What can I say if I should start to wander off the path? 
What can I do if pride gets in my way?
What poor excuse will I make up when I don’t follow Him?
All I can do is call upon His grace

When I call He’ll be there. He’ll answer in His time
I can trust His wisdom in all things
I don’t have to worry or think He will not guide me
So, trusting Him I’ll walk through what life brings

Jesus, only Jesus
Who else can guide me through the trials I face?
Jesus, only Jesus
Who only can bring me glory through disgrace?
Jesus, only Jesus
Who else can satisfy my longing soul?
Jesus, only Jesus
Will take my broken life and make me whole

So, I will trust in Jesus, only Jesus every day
I will follow Jesus, only Jesus is the way
I will hope in Jesus, only Jesus is my guide
I will love my Jesus, only Jesus guards my heart

Drink of My Grace

Leave a reply 
'Round about midnight the enemy came and he tried to entangle me
'Round about midnight the darkness if sin tried to hold on despite my plea
'Round about midnight i cried to me Lord to please come close to rescue me
Then I heard His voice
I heard His voice saying Son I have set you free

Free to dance on the mountains of hope
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to walk in the light and be bold
Free to drink of my grace
Free to enter my city of gold
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to let my mercy be known
Free to drink of my grace 

Now I am walking in light and not darkness, midnight has gone away
I called on the name of my Lord and my Savior and He brought the light of day
I will not be bound by sun any longer for He has shown me the way
When I called His name
When I called His name He said Son let me show you the way to be free

Free to dance on the mountains of old
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to walk in the light and be bold
Free to drink of my grace
Free to enter my city of gold
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to let my mercy be known
Free to drink of my grace 

I am free.  I am free
I am free.  I am free
I am free.  I am free 
Jesus has set me free
Jesus has set me free

Free to dance on the mountains of old
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to walk in the light and be bold
Free to drink of my grace
Free to enter my city of gold
Free to drink of my grace 
Free to let my mercy be known
Free to drink of my grace
