| Lyrics for songs on track player. (In alphabetical order of first line.) A WINTER'S NIGHT IN BETHLEHEM, a family at rest, As Mary takes her new born Son, And holds him to her breast. He's struggled out into the world, As babies all have done, But this time something's different For this is God's own Son. The minstrels would not come to play, For one who was so poor,
So God of all the Universe, Sent angels to his door! They sang his glory and his praise, And now with them we sing, And lay our lives before the throne, Of Jesus Christ the King. Of Jesus Christ the King.
Oh Israel you have tried to keep, The letter of the law, But not one woman, not one man, Could keep the Holy Law, So God has sent a sacrifice, His own beloved Son, And by his blood we are set free, From all the wrongs we've done.
The Universe now cries in pain, For Christ to be revealed, And as his mother nurses him, Our hearts begin to yield. So come poor shepherd, worship him, And take him as your own, And come you Kings of all the Earth, And bow before his throne.
So worship him, all bow before, The greatest King of kings, And join with angels praising him, Who true salvation brings. Oh baby born in Bethlehem, Oh young man on the cross, Oh risen Saviour, very God, Without you we are lost! CCLI 5327278 --------------------------- Come lift your voice and sing to one that we know as King, And humble hearted sing, “Jesus is Lord.” Come now in prayer to him, weep over every sin, Open your heart to him, Jesus is Lord. Maranatha, Jesus come! Maranatha, Jesus come! Come to the crucified, broken by all our pride, Come to his bleeding side, Jesus is Lord. Come for he lives again, blessed be his holy name, Death is forever slain, Jesus is Lord. CCLI 5329537 --------------------------- God is our shelter and our strength, in troubled times our aid, So even if the Earth does shake, we shall not be afraid. The Lord Almighty is with us, the God of Jacob our high stronghold. The Lord Almighty is with us, the God of Jacob our high stronghold. A river gladdens God’s own house, the city where he stays, And never will it be destroyed, we shall not be afraid. Come see now what the Lord has done, come see and be amazed. He breaks the bow, destroys the spear, we shall not be afraid. “Be still and know that I am God o’er all the Earth I made, Supreme among the nations,” now we shall not be afraid. We shall not be afraid. We shall not be afraid. Words from Psalm 46 Tune JDC ------------------------- He is the mighty one, the saviour of men. He is the mighty one, redeemer and friend. He is the mighty one, Jesus the Lord. He is the risen one, the truth and the way. He is the risen one, and he has conquered the grave. He is the risen one, mighty to save. Jesus Christ is risen. Jesus is alive. Death has been defeated and we shall survive, By holding to faith in the one that we love, In the one who we honour as king. Jesus is Lord all creation sings. All creation sings. CCLI 5111374 ------------------------
How lovely is your dwelling place Oh Lord of Hosts, I pine, I faint, I long to be, Within the Temple Courts, And every breath within me, Shall cry aloud to you, "The Living God, the Living God, I put my trust in you." Within the Temple of my God, The sparrow builds her nest, The swallow rears her brood, And by your altar finds her rest, Oh Lord of Hosts our God and King, We praise you without end, And set out on the pilgrim's way, The happiest of men, A day is better spent with you, Than thousands spent at home, Your doorstep brings a blessing, That the wicked have not known, The Lord he is my battlement, The Lord he is my shield, Such grace and honour he will give, To those who choose to yield. Words Ps 84 Tune JDC -------------------------- If I said I loved you true, would you know if I loved you? Words can be so foolish, words can mean a thousand things. Love is patient, love is kind, never to your feelings blind, Words can be so foolish, words can mean a thousand things. But there's a love that's looked for you, before the World began, And if you want to know of love, know God became a man. Love is faithful to the end, never ready to offend, But words can be so foolish, words can mean a thousand things. Love will keep no score of wrongs, never say you don't belong, But words can be so foolish, words can mean a thousand things. Love endures the darkest days, love will always find a way, Words can be so foolish, words can mean a thousand things. JDC ----------------------- I will meet you in the Temple on the Lord’s own holy day, And with all the congregation I will offer up my praise. Though a thousand tongues are singing, I will offer up my own, For I know that you can hear me from your great almighty throne. In my days of endless struggle you have been there at my side, And your soft and gentle whisper has been constantly my guide. You are faithfulness embodied so I come to worship you. You are God from everlasting, ever faithful, ever true, ever true. JDC ----------------------- Let me take your mind upon a long forgotten road, Twisting through the undergrowth where no one ever goes, Through a disused gateway and to His Holy Hill. Remember him? He's waiting still. Let me take you by the shores of ancient Galilee. See the stranger watch you cast your nets upon the sea. Long ago he called to you to follow if you will. Remember him? He's waiting still. Holy Spirit, draw us near, Help us see, what once was clear. Let us sit upon the mountain, listen to his words, Fill us with a wisdom that the world would call absurd. If memories are all you have of that day on the hill, Remember him? He's waiting still. Do you feel your love for him has somewhere grown cold? Then walk along Emmaus Road and let him fill your soul. Sit with him a table and let him be your fill. Remember him? He's waiting still. He's waiting still. He's waiting still. JDC ---------------------------
Living in victory, dwelling in harmony, Called unto glory by the Son of Man. Weak though we seem to be, yet sharing victory, All by the power of the great “I Am.” Praise to the Lord , Raise the standard and wave it high. Praise to the Lord, prayers like arrows fly. Praise to the Lord, make his worship your battle cry, Come let us praise him let us glorify him, “Jesus is Lord,” the victor cries. CCLI 5111381
------------------------- Lord, you paid the price for us, Lord, you died upon the cross. Holy Lord, risen Lord Now we offer you our hearts. Holy Lord, risen Lord Now we offer you our hearts. Lord, you rose up from the grave, Lord, and so we shall be saved. Lord, you are the King of Kings, Lord, we owe you everything. Lord, you will return once more, Lord, to take this world as yours. CCLI 5329496 ---------------------------------- My child you have come here to answer my call I cast my nets far to catch you in my haul. Now you stand before me and so shall I tell, All you must go through between Heaven and Hell. At first you'll grow quickly so brave and so strong, My Spirit within you, you'll never go wrong. My Word will be honey and blessing to you, And Jesus will be there in all that you do. From pupil to teacher you'll send forth my Word, The seedling shall grow to a shelter for birds, The birds they will carry the seed of my Word, On far coasts and islands my voice will be heard. But the forces of Hell shall beset you around, The mocker, the tempter, the old middle ground, And when in the darkness you stand there alone, Remember the one who is still on the throne. I'll arm you for battle, I'll give you my sword, My shield and my armour and Jesus own blood, And if you train hard and remain true to me, Then you too will share in my Son's victory. JDC --------------------------- Oh my Lord, hear my prayer, see the weeping of my eyes, And the yearning of my heart. With my lips I now declare this one truth that never dies, “Oh my God, how great you are!” Mountains tremble, oceans roar, Empires tumble to the ground. Yet the tender, broken heart Finds such mercy in the sound - - of your praise. CCLI 5111367 ------------------------ Perfect Love. Who can understand the ways of the Lord, our God? Who has walked among the flames on his mountain? Who has laid the sea to rest, held the Moon on high? Who can understand his holy ways? Yet I see his perfect love, it is hanging on a tree, And I trust this perfect love which gave its all for me. Yes I see his perfect love, it is hanging on a tree, And I trust this perfect love which gave its all for me.
Who can understand the ways of the Lord, our God? Who was with him when he rolled out the Heavens? When he speaks of mysteries that are yet to come, Who can understand his holy ways? I will climb upon this rock and will take my stand, I will strain my eyes to look for his coming. Though the days turn into years, I will watch and pray. Who can understand his holy ways? --------------------------- Take me back again.
There's a touch of make believe, a twinkle in your eye, A hint that maybe all is not dismay. You see a fool returning with his wisdom and his pride, Torn and tattered and in disarray. Take me back again into the shadow of your wings. Take me back 'though I do not deserve you. Take me back again into the shadow of your wings. Take me back forever by your side. Was it just a year or just a day or just an hour, That I walked without you by my side? When darkness overwhelmed me and I trembled at its power, And tangled its web I turned and cried. It's only since I walked the way of darkness all alone, That light has come into these sorry eyes. So now I come with cap in hand and hope that's hardly grown, To offer you the tears that I have cried. JDC --------------------------- In the tears of the cross, we fall and worship you. As they lie there in the dross, all our sins are washed away. These are tears of all the Earth, each tribe and tongue and nation, Such a mix of grief and joy for the punnishment you bear.
Tears of sadness for the pain our sin has brought to you. Tears of love and shouts of joy from all who worship you. In the blood of the cross your love for us is clear, As it lies there in the dross all our sins are washed away. This is blood of God and man so perfectly become as one, And the Sun there in the sky turns its face and looks away.
Blood has flowed to clear the world from every trace of sin. Blood has flowed that we might live through faith in Christ, our King.
Yet before all of these. We have asked you for love, We have pleaded for power, We have cried, "Lord, revive us today!" Yet before all of these, There is one needful thing, It's the wisdom to know what to pray. In your love, grant us wisdom in loving. In your power, grant us wisdom in deeds, And in words make us wise, sifting truth, sifting lies, May the wisdom of God be our guide. We have asked for forgiveness, And begged you to heal, We have sought for your strength day by day. Yet before We have Called on your mercy, Petitioned for signs, And for wonders to prove what we say.Yet before CCLI 5329472
--------------------------- What hope is there for sinners in the blaze of Judgment day? Where can they run, where can they hide, where can they flee away? Their wealth is set to leave them and their influence is gone, There is one way, there is one hope, if they can learn this song. On the cross, on the cross Jesus died for me, He broke the chains which bound me and set this captive free. And now I do believe that he is risen from the grave, And I will cry out every day that Jesus came to save. The World offers so many ways and has so many gods, They vary from the futile to the calculated fraud. They all have this in common, you must try to earn your way, But they are all mistaken it’s by faith and it’s by grace. So will you put your trust in him, the Christ who came to die? Trust in a grace you don’t deserve and you’ll be purified. Leave all your worldly wisdom, trample pride into the dust, Believe the resurrected one and in his promise trust. CCLI 5111745 -------------------------- When I'm troubled I can bring my prayers and lay them at your throne. When I'm hurting bring my wounds, And God will lay them on His Son. When I'm worried and the Devil comes, To test me once again, I will sing and bless the day, That I took Jesus as my friend. I'll bless the day I took Jesus as my friend. I'll bless the day I took Jesus as my friend. When I'm worried a nd the Devil comes, To test me once again, I'll bless the day that I took Jesus as my friend. --------------------------- WHEN TROUBLES BESET ME and black is the day, When sweet little evils would lead me astray, When all sight has failed and poor faith takes the strain, I will call out to God to restore me again. May Jesus be with me wherever I go, His power before me, his peace here below, His love on my left and his word on my right, Oh Jesus, my Saviour, be with me tonight. When strong winds come lashing the walls of my home, I'll turn then to Jesus who sits on the throne, And call out for strength to endure such a storm In the pitch black of midnight, I'll pray for the dawn. And when I draw close to the end of my days, When all of life's colours have faded to grey, I shall not despair I will wait for the dawn, When the Lord in his mercy will carry me home. JDC | | Lyrics for other songs. Album: In the hour of His Favour 1 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
Because the Lord has anointed me,
Sent me to proclaim good news,
Good news to the poor.
To set the captive prisoner free,
To make the blind, the blind to see,
To let the broken victim, victim go free.
This is the year of favour from a righteous God,
A time to save and a time to love,
A time to weep and a time to mourn,
A time to turn to the Holy One.
---------------------------------------------
2
Before God and before Christ Jesus,
Who will judge men alive or dead,
I charge you by his certain coming,
To proclaim this most holy word,
“If we died with him then we shall live.
If we endure then we shall reign.
If we deny him, he’ll deny us to,
He’s the truth, he’s the life, the way.
He’s the truth, he’s the life, the way.”
--------------------------------------------- 3
We were wandering, death was hovering,
We were thirsty and the well was broken.
Then he came for us, died upon the cross,
And in Heaven every flood gate opened.
Now mercy's pouring down from his victory,
And mercy's all around from his majesty,
And mercy's to be found
in the calling of his name,
In the calling of his name.
In the calling of his name,
in the calling of his name.
verse 2
'fore the Universe, God had chosen us,
We had fallen, every halo broken.
verse 3
Death was calling us, Judgement beckoned us,
And the very mouth of Hell was open.
--------------------------------------------- 4
With all this in mind,
what can we say,
oh what can we say?
With God on our side,
who can stand in our way,
who can stand in our way?
For God knew his own
'fore ever they were,
before they were born.
And these he's ordained to be like his Son,
To be like his Son.
Justified, purified, by his breath we are alive.
Justified, purified, by his breath we are alive.
Verse 2
Now these are the words,
the words you can trust, the words you can trust.
We struggle and strive,
with this before us, with this before us.
--------------------------------------------- 5
The eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous,
His ears are now open to all our prayers,
But the Lord sets his face against all who would do wrong.
So if you love life and would see good days,
Then don't let your tongue adopt evil ways,
The Lord sets his face against all who would do wrong.
So run the race right to the end, the prize awaiting you,
Is evermore to sing the Saviour's song.
------------------------------------------- 6
In the Hour of his Favour, he heeded my cry.
On the Day of Deliverance, my Saviour came by.
Now the Hour of his Favour's returning again,
And the Day of Deliverance is dawning my friend.
There's a weapon of righteousness here in our hands,
The word of the Father, on this rock we stand.
The sword of his Spirit is there in your mouth,
To call to the north, east, the west and the south.
Sin's power broken, forgiveness for all,
Come before that last trumpet call.
------------------------------------------- 7
If you hear his voice today,
don't be stubborn as you were of old.
Turning your face away
just like your ancestors once did of old.
But while the word sounds in your ears,
Strengthen each other in turning from sin.
For we have become partners with Christ,
Keeping our confidence firm to the end.
Today is the day to believe.
Today is the day to receive.
Today is the day to believe his love.
--------------------------------------------- 8
Ask and you will receive, seek and you'll find.
Knock and the door will be opened to you.
For all who ask receive, who seek shall find,
And if you knock, the door will open to you.
Ask for the Spirit and the faith to believe.
Seek new creation every day.
Knock till the door of Heaven opens on you,
And pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. x2
verse 2
Ask God for mercy and the strength to forgive.
Seek God for wisdom every day.
Knock till he answers for you know that he lives,
And pray, pray, pray, pray, pray. x2

Holy, holy, Lord God almighty,
Who was and is and is yet to come. (repeat)

Be unto you Lord, the ancient of days.(repeat)

Worthy, oh worthy, the Lamb on the throne,
Through all creation your glory is known.

Pursue justice, truth and fidelity, gentleness and grace, Fortitude and piety and run the holy race. verse 2 You confessed before witnesses and now before our God, I charge you to obey this call, till the coming of the Lord. ------------------------------ Album: Hey, Holy Nation! 1
Oh my Lord, hear my prayer,
see the weeping of my eyes,
And the yearning of my heart.
With my lips I now declare
this one truth that never dies,
“Oh my God, how great you are!”
Mountains tremble, oceans roar,
Empires tumble to the ground.
Yet the tender, broken heart
Finds such mercy in the sound - -
of your praise. CCLI 5111367

He is the mighty one, the saviour of men.
He is the mighty one, redeemer and friend.
He is the mighty one, Jesus the Lord.
He is the risen one, the truth and the way.
He is the risen one, and he has conquered the grave.
He is the risen one, mighty to save.
Jesus Christ is risen. Jesus is alive.
Death has been defeated and we shall survive,
By holding to faith in the one that we love,
in the one who we honour as king.
Jesus is Lord all creation sing. CCLI 5111374

Living in victory, dwelling in harmony,
Called unto glory by the Son of Man.
Weak though we seem to be, yet sharing victory,
All by the power of the great “I Am.”
Praise to the Lord , raise the standard and wave it high.
Praise to the Lord, prayers like arrows fly.
Praise to the Lord, make his worship your battle cry,
Come let us praise him let us glorify him,
“Jesus is Lord,” the victor cries. CCLI 5111381

I will worship the Lamb, I will worship the Lamb,
I will worship the Lamb of God,
And I will offer him all of my praise.
There upon the Cross, where he gave his life for me,
Jesus took my sins away.
Now instead of shame I can live in victory,
By his blood I am set free.
Since the world began death has covered everything
With the terror of the grave.
At the empty tomb is the declaration
That Jesus is alive today.
Now amidst the throne see the Lamb is reigning there
seated at his Father’s side.
At his holy name every knee shall bow and each
tongue confess him Lord of Light.
There will come a day at the final trumpet call
Jesus will return again.
Gathering his church, gathering his chosen ones,
Who with Christ shall ever reign. CCLI 5111398
---------------------------------- 5
Glorious one, Ancient of Days,
here is my sacrifice, here is my praise.
You are Creator and Redeemer, Master, Saviour, Friend.
Worthy of praise, worthy of power, worthy the Lamb.
Almighty God and Heavenly Father, here is my sacrifice,
here is my sacrifice, here is my sacrifice of praise. CCLI 5111721

Hey holy nation, yes you, new creation,
And all now who walk the King’s Highway.
Will you seek justice and will you show mercy,
Rejecting the lure of life’s by-ways?
In his footsteps will you follow,
Follow on the narrow way, on the narrow way?
I will show mercy as I’ve received mercy,
And I will forgive as forgiven.
On this royal highway I wont do it my way,
I’ll do now as is done in Heaven.
In his footsteps I will follow, Follow on the narrow way.
Hey child of glory will you tell the story,
Of Jesus, the Christ who is risen?
Using the Word like a two edged sword,
And releasing the captives from prison?
In his footsteps will you follow, Follow on the narrow way?
We’ll tell the story of God and his glory,
To all of the world, his creation.
With prayer and the word and the Spirit of love,
May his blood cleanse the sin of our nation.
In his footsteps I will follow, Follow on the narrow way. CCLI 5111738

What hope is there for sinners
in the blaze of Judgment day?
Where can they run, where can they hide,
where can they flee away?
Their wealth is set to leave them
and their influence is gone,
There is one way, there is one hope,
If they can learn this song.
On the cross, on the cross
Jesus died for me,
He broke the chains which bound me
and set this captive free.
And now I do believe that he
is risen from the grave,
And I will cry out every day
that Jesus came to save.
The World offers so many ways
and has so many gods,
They vary from the futile
to the calculated fraud.
They all have this in common,
you must try to earn your way,
But they are all mistaken
it’s by faith and it’s by grace.
So will you put your trust in him,
the Christ who came to die?
Trust in a grace you don’t deserve
and you’ll be purified.
Leave all your worldly wisdom,
trample pride into the dust,
Believe the resurrected one
and in his promise trust. CCLI 5111745

Jesus has died, gone to the grave,
risen from death, so he could save,
My wicked heart, sinful and stained,
now washed so clean by the blood of the Lamb.
In my heart I have such hope
and in my soul the strength to cope,
Yet many live in fear because
they do not know the risen Lord.
Tell the world he is the Lord.
Stand upon his holy word.
Tearing every stronghold down,
then to Jesus every crown.
Speak to friend and stranger to
all that God has done for you,
The peace and joy salvation brings,
theirs if Jesus be their king. CCLI 5111752
------------------------------------
9
So now let us gather round the throne,
and worship the Father with songs of praise.
Give glory to God because the Son
has risen from out of the grave.
Oh Death tell me now where is your sting?
For Jesus has conquered everything.
And though we may sleep he has promised
that we shall arise to sing out his praise.
So now let us glorify his name
and shout hallelujah, he reigns,
and shout hallelujah, he reigns. CCLI 5111769
