Remember

Don't forget those words,
The ones you spoke
The ones you wrote.

Don't forget the way
I made you feel.

Wait

You are the light
On the darkest of days.
You are the sound of rain
After a long dry spell.
You are the warmth of the fire
On winter's coldest night.
You are the quiet
In the midst of life's chaos.
You are the calm
When the storm is raging.
Yours is the voice
I long to hear.
Yours is the touch
I long to feel.
Yours is the love
I long to know.
You are the one
My heart belongs to.

You

Oh God,
This heart so full of me.
Would you break it,
Rid it of all its pride.
Wash it clean,
Pure and holy.
Father,
Take the pieces
Fix them back together
In your great Love
Your abundant Kindness,
In your everlasting Faithfulness,
Your gentle Graciousness.
A heart that belongs
Only to you,
Bringing glory to your
Wonderful Name.

Glory

Hearts on fire
Ablaze for You,
Lead us out to the place
Where we depend only on You.

Take our fear,
Our guilt,
Our shame.
Father, fix it
To bring Glory to your Name
Father
I am humbled by Your Love
Poured out for me
You shed Your blood
On the cross
That I might walk free
Forever
Found in You

Yours

The world awaits you,
Eagerly expectant
For what you have to offer.
Don't hold out on it,
Give it everything 
You've been given
And more.
Heart and eyes
Wide open,
The future is yours
Make it worth the wait.

Calvary

Your body strung out
Bruised and broken
Beyond human repair.
Some saw and wept
Unable to save their saviour,
Some saw and scoffed
The victory was theirs 
As you hung on the cross.

Man's darkest hour
Made possible
Through the evil
In our own hands.
What we called weak
God proclaimed glorious,
No greater love
Has man ever known. 

To life you rose
Death's sting
Was dealt it's final blow.
Your body lay in it's tomb
No more than three days.
Some saw and believed
Your scarred body
A reminder of the life
You gave for us.

Father,
Open our eyes
To your wondrous Love.
