Holy (Jesus, You Are) by Jason Ingram, Matt Redman, Jonas Myrin
Who shall we say You are?
You’re the living God.
Who shall we say You are?
You’re the Great I AM.
The highest name of all,
You’re all You say You are.
Creator King by Mary Maclean
You who made the mountains and the sea,
measured out the universe and You made me.
Echoes of the voice that called worlds to be
reach through the ages and now speak to me.
You’re my Creator King.
I Love You, Lord by Laurie Klein
I love You, Lord,
and I lift my voice
to worship You,
O my soul, rejoice.
Take joy, my King,
in what you hear:
May it be a sweet, sweet sound
in Your ear.
Satisfied – Words: Clara T. Williams (1875), Music: Karl Digerness (1997)
All my life long I had panted
for a drink from some cool spring
that I hoped would quench the burning
of the thirst I felt within.
Hallelujah! He has found me,
the One my soul so long has craved!
Jesus satisfies all my longings,
through his blood I now am saved.
The Love of God by F.H. Lehman (1917)
The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
It goes beyond the highest star,
And reaches to the lowest hell;
The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
God gave His Son to win;
His erring child He reconciled,
And pardoned from his sin.
Absent from Flesh – Words: Issac Watts (1707), Music and adapted lyrics: Jamie Barnes
Absent from flesh! O blissful thought!
What joy this moment brings
Free from the stain my sin has wrought,
from pain, and death, and its sting.
I go where God and glory shine, to one eternal day.
This failing body I now resign
for the angels point my way!.
