Why O Lord?
02:57
|

|
Why, O Lord, do you stand far away?
Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?
Where are you Lord where could you be?
“How long, O Lord, will you forget me? How long will you hide your face from me?
Where are you Lord where could you be?
How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy walk over me?
Oh Lord Oh Lord please mercy on me
My eye wastes away because of my grief;
it grows weak cause all of my foes all my foes surround me
Where are you Lord where could be?
How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy walk over me?
Oh Lord Oh Lord please mercy on me
How long Lord?
Where are you Lord where could you be?

My sword and shield
this battle will not yield
my foes are coming
to take me down
O Lord O Lord
how many our my foes
they raise against me
to bring me down
Arise, oh Lord
Break the teeth of the enemy
My sword my shield
Come and rescue me
Arise oh Lord Arise
My cry, my cry
Come deliver me
The lions coming
To tear me down
Arise, oh Lord
Break the teeth of the enemy
My sword my shield
Come and rescue me

Refuge
03:13
|
|||
|
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
Will abide in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say to the Lord, “My refuge, my fortress.
My God, in whom I trust. He will deliver
Me from snares of the fowler
Under his wings I will find refuge.
My God, Most High! You are my refuge
You will not fear the terror of the night
nor the arrows that fly by days light.
A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand,
My God, in whom I trust. He will deliver
no evil shall be befall you. no plague come near your home.
My God, Most High! You are my refuge
My refuge my refuge.
He will command his angles to guard you.
on their hands they will bear you up
won’t strike your foot on the stone. Trample on the lion and the adder
My God, in whom I trust. He will deliver
He will hold you fast in his love. Rescue you and show salvation
My God, Most High! You are my refuge
My refuge my refuge.

I Will Not Fear
02:32
|
|||
|
The Lord’s my light. Whom shall I fear?
The Lord’s my stronghold. Whom shall I fear?
The evil come. I will not fear
The armies rise. I will not fear
I will dwell in the house of Lord
Teach me your way or Lord lead me on the path.
The Lord’s my Shepard. Whom shall I fear?
The Lord’s my keeper. Whom shall I fear.
The gnashing teeth. I will not fear
Of the enemy. I will not fear
I will dwell in the house of Lord
Teach me your way or Lord lead me on the path.
Solo
My salvation. Whom shall I fear?
My restoration. Who shall I fear
In the sheltered tent. I will not fear
Shouts of joy. I will not fear
I will dwell in the house of Lord
Teach me your ways oh Lord lead me on the path.

Be Still
03:01
|
|||
|
Though the earth gives way,
And the mountains move
To the heart of the sea,
Be still! Be Still
The nations rage,
And the kingdoms fall
To ends of earth
Be Still Be still
The wars shall cease
Arms turn to peace
Break the bow
Shatter the spear
Be still and know
I am God.
The Chariot burns
Consumed with fire
From ash to ash
Be still Be Still
The wars shall cease
Arms turn to peace
Break the bow
Shatter the spear
Be still and know
I am God.
The wars shall cease
Arms turn to peace
Break the bow
Shatter the spear
Be still and know
I am God.

Lady On The Roof
03:31
|
|||
|
She’s a heart breaker
Breath taker
Widow maker
A bone shaker
Can’t get you out of my mind
My temptation
my restoration
my condemnation
my frustration
Can’t get you out of my mind
I would shed blood of the one you love
If I can call you all mine all mine
Lady on the roof I’ll show you proof
That I can’t get you out of my mind
She’s a heart breaker
Breath taker
Widow maker
A bone shaker
Can’t get you out of my mind
My temptation
my restoration
my condemnation
my frustration
Can’t get you out of my mind
I would shed blood of the one you love
If I can call you all mine all mine
Lady on the roof I’ll show you proof
That I can’t get you out of my mind
I would shed blood of the one you love
If I can call you all mine all mine
Lady on the roof I’ll show you proof
That I can’t get you out of my mind

Wash Over Me
03:03
|
|||
|
My unclean soul
Is all that you can see
Lord have mercy
And wash over me
You delight in truth
My sin is before me
Come and cleanse me
from my iniquities.
Wash over me
Wash over me
My broken bone
Rejoice in the snow
Create a clean heart
My transgression you don’t know.
Cast me not away
From your presence oh Lord
Take not your Spirt
Salvation joy be restored.
Wash over me
Wash over me
My Deliver. My salvation
My tongue will sing. Of your righteousness
Wash over me
Wash over me

Home
04:07
|
|||
|
The mountains rose, and the valleys sank
The grass grows by the river bank
The beast drink watch them feast
The birds soar on winds of the northeast
In your wisdom you made our home
In your glory you spoke the sun
Light of the world never alone
Holy spirt, father, son
From the heavens you water the earth.
The vine grows you bring rebirth.
Work the soil the original plan
Wine to gladden the hearts of man
In your wisdom you made our home
In your glory you spoke the sun
Light of the world never alone
Holy spirt, father, son
Bless the Lord, O my soul! Praise the Lord!
In your wisdom you made our home
In your glory you spoke the sun
Light of the world never alone
Holy spirt, father, son

Still Waters

|

|
Come now to still waters
Restore my soul Lord and make me whole.
Lead me on your path of righteousness.
I will fear no evil
I will walk through the valley of death.
For your Rod, your staff they comfort me.
Your table prepared before me.
In the room of my enemy.
Anoint my head. My cup overflows.
Surely goodness and mercy
Shall follow me. All the days of my life.
I will dwell in the house of the Lord.
Forever and ever and ever amen.
Amen Amen Amen Amen Amen
