Awaken My Ear

Awaken My Ear

Isa 50:4

I set my heart to seek Your face
I turn my ear to Your understanding
I want to know Your heart O Lord
Father help me hear Your voice

Chorus:
Awaken my ear to hear as the learned
Morning by morning, make Your word clear
Then open my mouth to speak as the learned
A word in its season to the weary heart

Awaken my ear, awaken my ear
Wisdom I seek, and to discern
Create in me a heart that is holy
I lift my voice to understand
Father lead me by Your hand

Bridge:
I want to hear Your voice
And be led by the Spirit of God
I want to know Your ways
And be led in the light of Your word

Ready to forgive
Abundant in mercy,

As the watchman waits for the morning,
My soul waits for You.    (2x)

10. Let Me See Thy Face And Die

Let Me See Thy Face and Die

1) To Thee, great God of love! I bow,
And prostrate in Thy sight adore;
By faith I see Thee passing now;
I have, but still I ask for more,
A glimpse of love cannot suffice,
My soul for all Thy presence cries.
I cannot see Thy face, and live,
Then let me see Thy face, and die!

2) Moses Thy backward parts might view,
But not a perfect sight obtain;
The gospel doth Thy fulness show
To us, by the commandment slain;
The dead to sin shall find the grace
The pure in heart shall see Thy face.
I cannot see Thy face, and live,
Then let me see Thy face, and die!

3) Surrounded by the saints of old,
We now by faith approach to Thee
Shall all with open face behold
In Christ the glorious Deity;
Shall see, and put the Godhead on,
The nature of Thy sinless Son.
I cannot see Thy face, and live,
Then let me see Thy face, and die!

Guarding Our Mouths

Guarding Our Mouths
Jas 1:19-20; Pro 21:23; 13:3; 10:19; Num 20:8-11; Isa 42:1-4; 53:7; Mat 26:59-64; 27:11-14; Jas 3:6, 8-4:10

Darren shares on the importance of guarding our mouths from speaking angry words that come from within our hearts.  Jesus is our example of gracious speech and One who was even silent before His accusers. Let us grow in grace and learn to be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to wrath.

10. O The Grace That Saves

O The Grace That Saves
Tit 2:11-14; Jn 1:14; Rom 6:1-2; Heb 4:16

1) O the grace that saves, has appeared to every man,
For it teaches us to say no to all ungodliness,
And live self controlled and godly in the present age we’re in,
While we wait for our Savior, and the blessed hope from Him.

2) What a faithful Priest who has given up His life,
To redeem us from our deeds that are lawless in His sight.
We beheld of His glory when the Word in flesh appeared,
For He came to indwell us and of death remove the fear.

3) What shall we now say? Shall we sin that grace abounds?
Brethren, may it never be that in us this heart is found!
Let us come boldly to the throne of grace in time of need,
To find help for our troubles, and the grace that makes us free!

11. Psalm 23

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd I shall not want
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures
He leadeth me beside the waters of rest
He restoreth my soul

Chorus:
Though I walk through the valley
Thou art with me
Thou preparest me a table, before my enemies
Though I walk through the valley
I will not fear
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He leadeth me in paths of righteousness
Thou anointest me with oil, my cup overflows
I’ll dwell in Thy house forevermore

I’ll Bless Your Name

I’ll Bless Your Name
Psa 34:1-8

O magnify, the Lord on high
My soul shall boast in the Lord
And the humble shall hear and be glad

Chorus:
I’ll bless Your name, at all times
And Your praise shall be in my mouth
This poor man cried, You heard on high
And You saved me from all my fears

O taste and see, the Lord is good
Blessed is the man who trusts
And whose refuge is in the Lord

11. Behold The Lamb

Behold The Lamb
Isa 53:7; 1 Pet 2:21-23; Jn 1:11

Behold the Lamb’s humility
With mockers at His feet
With bruise and spittle on His face
His suffering near complete
Behold His quiet dignity
As men did laugh and scorn
As blood filled eyes the shame despised
Beneath the crown of thorn (2x)

Behold the Lamb’s meekness displayed
In silence at the rod
As blow by blow each stroke did know
Was all the will of God
Behold what majesty withstood
Such cruelty from men
The silent intercessor groaned
To pardon them from sin (2x)

Behold the Lamb silent and still
While men His skin did flay
Laid down His life through yielded-ness
God’s glory to display
Behold Him stand before the crowd
Rejected by His own
Once hailed as King by multitudes
Now loved by God alone (2x)

Behold the Lamb, O more than see!
This nature I must know
To see alone a curse would be
If only for a show
With tear filled eyes myself despise
And all for Thee would give
To share Your nature, taste Your power
And in Your grace to live (2x)

12. Love Never Fails

Love Never Fails

1) Just as Jesus died, laying down His life
So husbands love your wives
As Jesus loves His bride

Love is patient, love is kind
It does not envy, does not boast
It is not rude, nor seeks its own
But rejoices in the truth

Chorus:
Love never fails, love never fails
When faith, hope and love
Are all that remain
The greatest of these is love

2) What God has joined as one
Let no man separate
Two flesh become one
When a covenant is made

So love the Lord with all your heart
All your soul and all your mind
Love your neighbor as yourself
For love fulfills the law

I Need A Savior

I Need A Savior
Psa 119:114; 31:2; 68:5; 46:1

Jesus, my deliverer
My strength, and my hiding place
There is no stronger tower
Than Your holy name

Chorus:
You are mighty to save me
You’re my refuge and Rock of safety
Every day I need a Saviour
And You are mighty to save

You are my defender
Living to intercede
A present help in trouble
Watching over me

Bridge:
You are my firm foundation
You are my hope and shield
Lord, You are my salvation
I find rest in You

12. Those Who Are Christ’s

Those Who Are Christ’s
2 Tim 3:12; Gal 5:24; Lk 22:42-44; Rom 8:18; 2 Cor 4:16-18

All who desire a godly life
Will suffer for His name
Counting it joy amidst the trials
Knowing that life is gained

Those who are Christ’s have crucified
The body of the flesh
With all its passions and desires
And overcome the tests

Chorus:
You drank the cup, O Lamb of God
You have endured the cross
Poured out Your will, with drops of blood
Showing us how to walk
Worthy are You, O God

The sufferings of this present hour
They cannot be compared
With all the glory and the power
To be, in us, revealed

Outwardly we are perishing
The inward man renewed
Looking to things that are unseen
We put our hope in You

13. From Death To Life

From Death to Life

Baptized with Christ, into His death,
That we might walk in newness of life.
Set free from sin, now slaves of righteousness.
Raised from the dead by the glory of the Lord.

Chorus:
You are the resurrection and the life,
He who believes in You will never die.
You are the resurrection and the life,
He who believes in You has passed from death to life.

Body of sin, buried with Him.
He who has died has been freed from his sin.
Sin shall not be a master over me,
I’m under grace, and I have been set free.

Come Unto Me

Come Unto Me
Matt 11:28-30; 2 Pet 1:19; Jn 1: 14

Come unto Me, all you weary
I’ll give you rest
Take up My yoke, learn from Me
I have gentleness
(2x)

Chorus:
Lamb of God
We have tasted and have seen how
Good You are
We worship You
Word of God
We beheld Your glory and we
Know You are
Full of grace and truth

Bright Morning Star, fill our hearts
Rise in us and shine
To the perfect day, guide our way
By Your power divine
(2x)

13. Search Me

Search Me, O God
Psa 139:13-16, 23, 24

Lord, You have formed me and know every part,
You wove me inside of the womb.
Lord, I will praise You with all of my heart,
How marvelous the works You do.

Chorus:

Search me, O God, and know all of my heart;
Try me and know every anxious thought;
See if there is any wicked part,
Lead me in Your righteousness.

Your eyes were on me when I was unformed,
My frame was not hidden from You.
My days were ordained, and were all written down,
How marvelous the works You do.

Bridge:

You are holy,
You are holy,
You are holy, Lord
(repeat)

14. Beatitudes

Beatitudes

1) Blessed are the poor in Spirit
For theirs is the kingdom of God
Blessed are the mourners, they’re comforted
And the meek shall inherit the earth
And the meek shall inherit the earth

2) Blessed are the thirsty for righteousness
And the hungry for they shall be filled
Those that show much mercy are shown mercy
And the pure for they shall see their God
And the pure for they shall see their God

Blessed are you when men revile you
When they exclude you
And falsely accuse you for My name

Chorus:
Rejoice, be exceedingly glad
For great is your reward
When men hate you leap for joy
(repeat)

3) Blessed are the peacemakers they shall be
Called the sons of the most Holy God
And those persecuted for righteousness
For theirs is the kingdom of God
For theirs is the kingdom of God

To Whom Shall I Go?

To Whom Shall I Go?
Psa 119:37; Luk 16:15; Jn 6:68-69

Turn my eyes from worthless things
And revive me in Your ways Lord
For the things that men esteem
Are detestable in Your eyes

Chorus:
To whom shall I go?
Your word is life
And I’ve come to know
That You are the Christ
For the lust of the world
Is passing away
But the Spirit gives life
And the flesh profits nothing

Give me eyes to see the things
That to You have not been pleasing
Jesus help me to crucify
Every selfish way and desire
