Final Destination

There’s a place of warm embrace where the day will dawn that has no ending
The Son will shine for all of time in the land that brings a new beginning
In that place with sin erased we’ll look upon His face

Our final destination beyond the sky 
Where faith will turn to vision and you and I
Bow in adoration to the Father of creation
And magnify the Adonai
In the kingdom forever on high
Our final destination

There’s a way, there’s a path to take that will guide us to the everafter
It begins with grace, follows faith and it ends in arms of a loving Master
On that day He’ll wipe away the sorrow and the pain

Rising up from the dark of the night 
We will dwell in the warmth of His holy light
There’s a grave where the Son was laid 
But the stone is gone, the tomb is empty
He’s the door to the evermore
Where He waits to take us home

Stand In Your Presence

I could look down from the highest tower 
I could read the works of great acclaim
I could hear the sweetest symphony 
And simply walk away unchanged
But then I see the smallest miracle that man could not begin to do
And I get caught up in the majesty caught up in the majesty of You

That’s when I stand in Your presence fall to my knees in worship
Turn my eyes to see Your face bow my head and lift Your name
Cry holy holy sing hallelujah I will lift my praise to heaven 
When I come into Your presence Lord

I could try a thousand times to make it
I could choose to walk alone again
I could test the human competence
And lose my way before I begin
But then I see the smallest miracle that man could not begin to do
And I get caught up in the majesty caught up in the majesty of You

Lord I know I cannot comprehend all that You do
But I can see the change in me is all because of You

You Are

Everywhere I go surrounded by the wonder of the things I want to know
How did You hang the clouds and tell them where they ought to go
And then I feel the wind that gently holds an eagle by his wings And gives him flight And tells the trees to dance and gives the leaves a voice that cry

You are higher than my highest thought and
You are the breath of life in all I see
You are opening my eyes to know that 
You are all that life is meant to be

The wonder new each day the beauty that my eyes behold when finishing His way
The sun retires and shadows grow to chase the light away
Then in the night I see a tiny ray of light reminding there is more than me
And falling to my knees amazement washes over me

In the waves I see Your hand 
You hold them back by Your command
You spoke the light into the day 
And out of clay You called my name

How Deep The Father’s Love For Us

How deep the Father’s love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen one
Bring many sons to glory

Behold the man upon a cross
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice 
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished

I will not boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom

Run Farther

Somedays I feel like I’m just here to watch the show
Say the lines sing the rhymes so nobody will know
That somewhere just behind the practiced smile
Is a longing that’s been here awhile 

I want to run farther I want to dive deeper
To eave what’s safe behind and follow Him
I want to stand stronger Walk closer
Surrendering the last of who I am
I want to run farther

Change the pace run the race and dare to win the prize
Redeem the days seek His face and leave the past behind
And somewhere just beyond what I can see
Is the road that leads to victory

On to where I’ve never been before 
And I know I need to trust You even more

There Is A Heaven

It’s funny how things bittersweet can turn so hard when they come to me
And I don’t know how to say goodbye my friend
We laughed together just yesterday now I’m driving slow in this sad parade
And I know that we won’t see you here again

But I know there is a heaven and one day I’ll see you there
Where Jesus holds us through forever there will be no goodbyes
When I see you in heaven

The hours turn to days to years your memory brings a smile and a tear
And I miss the days we could have had my friend
But time can bring such sweet relief as I see God’s hand offer joy and peace
And I know that I will see you soon again

I close my eyes and see you basking in the presence of our Lord
The fullness of His grace you now know face to face

Give Like He Did

I want hands that are open and ready to give
Sharing the wealth that God’s blessed me with
Cheerfully ready to meet any need
Less for myself so I can give where God leads

Open hands like His hands when the nails pierced Him through
Open arms spread to love as when He died for me and you
Open heart submitted to the Father’s plan
We’re never more like Him than when we give
Let’s give like He did

A heart that is open to beat for His use
Giving myself to what He would choose
Not clinging to dreams that are just my own
Willing to go where He says to go

Enough For Me

I’ve asked all the questions is He there 
Can He see the ones who suffer does He care
Even though there are mysteries that I can’t explain
There’s truth I’ve found in Jesus that remains the same

No hand has touched no mind’s conceived
The wonders of our God and King
And I will follow ‘til the day I see 
Cause He has always been enough
Enough for me

We have good intentions dreams and goals
And our passions open windows to our souls
Still the greatest ambition is to know and to be known
By the Author of the heavens who is God alone

He has all the wisdom all the power
All the riches of abundant grace
Give Him all the honor all the glory
All the blessings and the highest praise

Go With You

Here I am I’ve done it again turned my back on You followed the wind
No one to blame decisions I’ve made so I stand here alone in my sin
Why do I say I love You and still walk the other way
When I can turn to You Father and so this is what I pray

I want to go with You through the joy and through the rain
I want to live for You when the triumph turns to pain
If the storm is crashing down or the gentle breezes blow 
Whatever You have for me lord I will go

Here I am You’ve spoken again to leave easy and live life to win
One choice to make follow Your way only path to find peace within
Why do I say I love You and still walk the other way
When I can turn to You Father and so this is what I pray

I will go when tomorrow holds a path I cannot see
I will rest in the promises that You will go with me

Let Everything That Has Breath

Let everything that has breath praise Him 
Let everything that has breath praise the Lord

Praise You in the morning praise You in the evening
When I’m young and when I’m old
Praise You when I’m laughing praise You when I’m grieving
Praise You every season of the soul
If we could see how much You’re worth Your power Your might Your endless love
Then surely we would never cease to praise You

Let everything that, everything that
Everything that has breath praise the Lord
Let everything that, everything that
Everything that has breath praise the Lord

Praise You in the heavens joining with the angels
Praising You forever and a day
Praise You on the earth now joining with creation
Calling all the nations to Your praise
