Where You Are

Where You Are

I hear you calling Lord at the dawning of the day
I hear your footsteps, Lord, as I walk along the way
I feel your presence, Lord. I ask you please to stay
Close by my side.  I will abide in you

You send your comforter to teach me of your ways
Your Holy Spirit, Lord, to guide me every day
I feel His presence, Lord, and I ask Him to stay
Close by my side.  I will abide in you

Where you are, there is mercy. Where you are, there is grace
Where you are I know I’m safe from all harm
Where you are, there is freedom. Where you are, there is peace
I always want to stay where you are

So many times, Lord, I have wandered from your side
So many times, Lord, I have given up on life
So many times, Lord, you’ve reminded me that I’m
Close by your side, so I’ll abide in you

Right here, right now you hold me in your arms
Right here, right now you keep me from all harm
I don’t deserve it, I never will
Yet you come and show your love to me
You come and show your love to me
All That I Need

Lord, Help Me Please

If God's in control, why do I worry
If God's in control, why do I dread
If God's in control i must always remember 
That He's not done with me yet 

I look at my life and see all the struggles 
Daily they come at me from every side
Just when I think that I might go under 
He comes along and strengthens my life 

It seems that I think I can handle it all
My pride says that I just cannot fall
Then I see this world crash in around me
And I find myself falling down on my knees 
Shouting Lord, help me please

Help me to see your mercy and grace
Help me to see the love on your face
Help me to lift my hands up in praise
To the one who can all my struggles erase

Yes, God's in control of the wind and the waves
He's in control of the storm and the rain
When trials and troubles are all around me
The best place I can be is down on my knees
Shouting Lord help me please

He's not a God who will leave me alone
To muddle through trouble all on my own
He's full of compassion, patience and peace 
He'll always be there to comfort me
When I cry out Lord, help me please.

All is Your Mercy

All Is Your Mercy

Every heartbeat
Every breath
Every footstep
Every rest

Every sunrise
Every rain
Every sweet scent
Every day


CHORUS
All is your mercy, Lord.  Mercy for me
All is your mercy, Lord.  Holy and free
Without your mercy don’t know what I’d do
Thanks for your mercy Lord.  How I love you

All that I hear
All I can see
All that I taste
All I can feel

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Mercy and grace so freely given
You gave your life on a cross just for me
All of my pardon from sins disease
You took it all, Lord, mercy so free

CHORUS

He Restores My Soul

 When trouble is all around me 
 And I'm not sure which way to go
 I turn to my Lord and Savior
 For He restores my soul 
  
 When this world seems to overtake me
 And the enemy seems so bold 
 I know that Jesus will hold me
 For He restores my soul
  
 CHORUS
 He restores my joy in sorrow
 He restores my peace in the storm
 He restores my hope in the valley
 He'll always restore my soul 
  
 I go through each day with this victory
 Because He's there to show me the way
 I know that my path will be guarded
 He'll restore my soul every day
  
 CHORUS
  
 And though I walk through the valley
 Still waters will be by my side
 Green pastures will be in my future
 My Savior is always my guide
  
 Through sickness
 Through pain
 Through heartache 
 Through rain
 Through good times 
 Through bad
 He’s restore me in every way
  
 CHORUS

Heavenly Praise

 I was sitting just inside the gates of heaven
 I arrived just yesterday and saw His face
 My Savior stood before me in His glory
 I bowed down to the ground and then I said
  
 You alone deserve my praise, Oh Lord
 You alone will I honor and adore
 I lift my voice to you
 It is all that I can do
 As I humbly bow before your throne
  
 He lifted up my head and led me onward
 I saw all the saints of old up ahead
 It was strange how I knew them in an instant
 As I walked along this is what they said
  
 You alone deserve my praise, Oh Lord
 You alone will I honor and adore
 I lift my voice to you
 It is all that I can do
 As I humbly bow before your throne
  
 He led me to a table spread before us
 The marriage feast the Lamb had made for me
 I sat down at the table with the others
 Then these words we all began to speak
  
 You alone deserve my praise, Oh Lord
 You alone will I honor and adore
 I lift my voice to you
 It is all that I can do
 As I humbly bow before your throne
  
 Then the Lamb entered the room in royal splendor
 He sat down and said let the feast begin
 I stood up to my feet and started singing
 To the Lamb who gave me life again
  
 You alone deserve my praise, Oh Lord
 You alone will I honor and adore
 I lift my voice to you
 It is all that I can do
 As I humbly bow before your throne
