(Zephaniah 3:17 paraphrased) The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing [he will spin round in a violent motion with gladness, shouting and triumph]!

GRACE LIKE RAIN
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found was blind, but now I see

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed

When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise than when we first begun.

I KNOW
I know you are good
I know you’re the Holy One
I know you are God
I know you’re the only One

Each day in the morning when I get up out of bed
The things you say to me are the first things in my head
Safe inside of your love, I can laugh without a care
Everywhere I look, you are there

Cause I know . . .

You fill me with your passion, fill me with your song
Wherever you are heading Lord, I want to come along
Addicted to your goodness, is what I want to be
Holding onto you, I am free

REDEEMED
Gone are the shackles holding me down
His blood was enough, I now wear a crown
Redeemed, I’ve been redeemed

Bought with a price, It’s finished, it’s done
Death on the cross, victory won
Redeemed, I’ve been redeemed

 Br: I give you my heart, I worship you now
 I look for the words don’t even know how
 To tell you how grateful I am for all that you’ve done
 God of the ages, King of all kings
 The earth lifts its voice, the heavens all sing
 Giving you glory and honor for who you are

Washed white as snow, my debt has been paid
He’s coming again, the Lamb who was slain
Redeemed, I’ve been redeemed

SHEPHERD’S SONG
This is the Shepherds song I sing, his sheep don’t want for anything
For they are always on the shepherd’s mind
In pastures green you feed me, beside still waters you lead me
To quench a thirst and hunger we all find

I hear when you’re calling me, to come and rest there at your feet
I listen for your voice and know it’s you
You bring me back and rescue me, restore me when I’m wandering
To lead me on the path that’s straight and true

 Yea though I walk thru the valley of the shadow of death
 I will fear no evil, for you are here
 Thy rod and staff they comfort me, protect me from the enemy
 Your perfect love will cast out all my fear

You set a table just for me  In the presence of my enemies
Your soothing words of grace they heal my soul
You anoint my head when I’m in need, like a shepherd’s ointment for his sheep
My cup is overflowing, I’m made whole

 Goodness and mercy follow me, every day it’s you I see
 Pursuing me with blessings from above
 And in your house Lord I will dwell, I’ll never have to say farewell
 You overshadow me with your love

OPEN UP THE GATES
Open up the gates, the gates of righteousness
Open up the gates, the gates of righteousness
I will enter in, I will praise the LORD  Open up!  Open up!

The blood that covers me, is the blood of a righteous man
The blood that covers me, is the blood of a righteous man
I will enter in, I will praise the LORD  Open up!  Open up!

 The LORD is my strength, He is my song , He has become my salvation

Open up the gates, the gates of righteousness
Open up the gates, the gates of righteousness
I will enter in, I will praise the LORD, Open up!  Open up!

The blood that covers me, is the blood of a righteous man
The blood that covers me, is the blood of a righteous man
I will enter in, I will praise the LORD, Open up!  Open up!

 I will praise the LORD, He has answered me, He has become my salvation

DON'T PUSH ME
God can take a mess, and turn it all around
He's made my body whole, he's made my mind sound
No matter what the danger, or circumstance may be
Heaven may be wonderful, but please don't push me

There's days that are the pits, you may be near the grave
But I know my Lord Jesus came so I could be saved
I'll be living with my Lord thru all eternity
Heaven will be wonderful but please don't push me

The word of God's a gold mine, there's wisdom and there's health
Deliverance from evil, There's peace and then there's (also) wealth
But while I'm on this earth, God's still got plans for me
Heaven may be wonderful, but please don't push me

He has got his plans for me, my times are in his hand
 I can say with certainty, there’s no hurry, he’ll come for me
 And I’m already living in forever

SANCTUARY
You’ve prepared me, to be a sanctuary
Pure and holy, tried and true
With thanksgiving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for You

I’ve been forgiven, you sanctified me
You redeemed me, I worship You
Your precious blood has reconciled me
Justified me through and through

From my debt You have released me
Restoration came from you
Granted access with all boldness
Eternal life by faith in You

SPIN
You rejoice You dance You spin in wild abandon
You call to us, You lead us on as You sing, as You dance

How can we keep up with You when we’re just stumblin’ at Your feet?
You come to us, You take us in Your arms and You carry us away

Dancing in Your light we’re amazed, by the power of Your love
Gracefully You speak to our hearts and our feet follow You

We rejoice, we dance, we spin in wild abandon
We call to You, You lead us on as we sing as we dance
We rejoice, we dance, we spin.....

I GO RUNNING
Your love is overwhelming Your love is so complete
With open arms you call out to me
Your love will overtake me, Take me out to sea
Your waves of love wash over my heart

I go running to you, You hold me and you never let go
I go running to you, Waves of love, let it overflow

BORN OF GOD
Those who are born of God they do not walk in sin
For they are kept by His love!
I am born of God  I do not walk in sin
For I am kept by His love.

Jesus appeared to free us from sin
 And in Him is no sin at all!
So as children of God, we have the right
To see all our bondage’s fall
For I am born of God!  Yes I am born of God!

(Bridge)  No more guilt and shame for me,  I am born of God I am free

MORE THAN ENOUGH
I just want to thank you Lord
I just want to thank you Lord
I just want to thank you Lord
cuz you’re more than enough 

When I look into my heart and see who’s on the throne
A place prepared for you and you alone
I remove my own desires, put away those selfish things
Giving you the rightful place as king

ONE I AM
One God loves me completely
One Lord gave his life for me
One Spirit captivates me
One God has my bended knee

Almighty God, the Risen Lamb
 Most Holy Ghost, You are the One I AM

What do you want?  He’s got it
What do you want at the end of the line?
Good name, good fortune don’t matter
Nothing compares to the God of all time
