We Will Fear the Lord
04:11

|
V1
When anxious storms within us rage,
we will fear the Lord.
when death, disease and darkness reign
we will fear the Lord.
All things will bow at his command
to bring us good from what would harm.
We rest secure in sovereign arms,
we will fear the Lord.
V2
Our Father freely gave his Son,
we will fear the Lord,
how could he now withhold his love?
We will fear the Lord.
Oh, see our Father's love displayed
as Jesus died to bear our shame
then left our death within the grave:
we will fear the Lord.
V3
There may be anxious times ahead
we will fear the Lord.
We'll look to him for daily bread,
we will fear the Lord.
Our Father hears each feeble plea,
He has compassion for the weak,
He will supply our every need:
we will fear the Lord.
V4
So as we face the storms of life,
we will fear the Lord.
We'll cast our burdens onto Christ,
we will fear the Lord.
In you our future is secure,
for all your promises are sure.
This song we'll sing forevermore:
we will fear the Lord!

Chorus
Jesus be my refuge
In You alone I stand secure
Christ my life forevermore
Christ my only treasure
Verse 1
I have no good apart from You
No other god could satisfy
I set my heart on You alone
Your goodness fills me with delight
Verse 2
I love to hear my Shepherd's voice
He gives me strength to walk His way
His wisdom fills my heart with joy
And by His side I know I'm safe
Verse 3
And when this earthly body dies
You will not let me see decay
For I am hidden now in Christ
Who rose in victory from the grave
My Treasure for unending days

Come You Sinners
04:41
|
|||
|
V1
Come, you sinners, poor and needy,
weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
full of pity, love and pow'r.
V2
Come, you thirsty, to the Fountain
of His kindness come and drink:
He will satisfy the broken -
all you need is your need of Him.
C:
I will arise and go to Jesus,
he will embrace me as his own;
in the arms of my great Saviour,
there is grace and love unknown.
V3
Come, you weary, heavy-laden,
bruised and ruined by the fall;
if you tarry 'til you're better,
you will never come at all.
V4
4. See our Lord in heav'n, ascended,
pleads His perfect sacrifice:
"It is finished! It is finished!"
Sinner, will this not suffice?

You Are My Father
05:19
|
|||
|
V1
You called my name
before You formed the earth.
You saw my frame,
knit me together with a word.
You designed my heart to know You,
breathing life into my bones,
Forever You have loved me as Your own.
Chorus
You are my Father, I am Your child.
Loved and accepted, nothing could separate us now:
adopted forever, purchased with blood.
You are my Father and I am a child of God.
V2
You know my need
before I ever call.
You guide my feet,
teach me to plant my steps in Yours.
And you comfort and protect me
with new mercies day by day.
You know my weakness, yet Your love remains.
V3
And when I fall
and wander from Your ways —
ashamed by it all,
fearing I've squandered all Your grace:
then I turn and see You running
with forgiveness in Your gaze —
still I'm welcome in my Father's embrace!

One With Christ
04:21
|
|||
|
V1
One with Christ, chosen in your Son
Before you gave creation life.
Forever loved, treasured as your own,
A precious child in your sight.
Chorus 1
My soul is bound to Christ the Son
Now and forever we are one.
The Father’s love, the Spirit’s life
are lavished over me in Christ.
V2
As He died, hanging on a cross
I died in Him to all my sin.
And then He rose: now he is alive
And so am I — alive in Him!
Chorus 2
No condemnation now I dread:
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine.
Alive in Him my living Head
And clothed in righteousness divine.
V3
Raised with Christ, seated now on high,
my life secure with Christ above,
Not even death, sin or any pow’r
Could ever separate us now!
