Darkest Days

I waited patiently for You and You heard my cry
You set my feet upon a rock, out of the mud and mire
You put a new song upon my lips and I sing Holy, Holy, Holy many will see and fear the Lord, our God most high

nothing compares to You
nothing compares to You
nothing compares to You
so, I will sing Your praise over my darkest days
until You guide me through

I will not trust my bow, I will not trust my sword
my strength is in Your name, my hope is in my Lord
You put a new song upon my lips and I sing Holy, Holy, Holy many will see and fear the Lord, our God most high

I am undone, what will become
of all the mess I’ve made?
my foolish pride has started fires
these hands can not contain
but, I will raise them high in praise
my God You’ll never leave me
I don’t deserve another word
but You keep crying out for me

Psalm 44

Philippians 3:7-11

For You Alone

one body, one Spirit
one Father over all
one hope and one salvation
we trust in You, alone
one faith, one grace
one God who holds it all in place

for You, alone, we sing
for You, alone, we stand
for You, alone, we lift our hands
we bring an offering
to You, our God and King
for who could sit on Heaven’s throne
but You, and You alone?

and You will lead us in the light, in the light
we will shine, we will shine
so the world will know Your love
and with one voice we will proclaim, will proclaim
in Your name, in Your name
we will see Your kingdom come

Ephesians 4:1-6

Psalm 86:8-11

When I Am Troubled (Doxology)

when I am troubled and my restless heart is weary
and fear has swallowed all the faith I’ve been assigned
I will forbid my skin from holding back my spirit
and sing to Him who conquered death to bring me life

praise God from Whom all blessings flow
praise Him all creatures here below
praise Him above you heavenly host
praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost

when everything I’ve planned is crumbled and abandoned
and all I feel is tension ripping at my bones
I am reminded of the watch that You are keeping
You always have and always will be on Your throne

and I will cry out to You, my King
why do You hide, now, Your face from me?
I am surrounded with no escape
but, from the grave my heart will say
praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost

Scripture References

Psalm 88

Philippians 4:4-9

Philippians 3:1-14

Lord of My Land

Lord of my land, Lord of my heart
Lord of the anger that tears me apart
teach me to love, love like You do
carry me home, carry me through

Lord of my loss, Lord of my gain
Lord of my politics, paychecks, and pain
teach me to love, love like You do
carry me home, carry me through

when I don’t act justly, or love mercy
or walk humbly with You
when I speak over Your voice
or I stand in the way of the truth
Father forgive me, for I know what I do

Lord of our wrongs, Lord of our rights
Lord of the flags that we burn and we fly
teach us to love, love like You do
carry us home, carry us through

when we don’t act justly, or love mercy
or walk humbly with You
when we speak over Your voice
and we stand in the way of the truth
Father forgive us, for we know what we do

we’re dying on every hill except Calvary
all of our shouting is drowning the sound
of the Heavens and earth still declaring Your glory
and all of the lost crying out to be loved
fill up our lungs with a dangerous fire
that will burn down the walls still dividing the saints
who were bought with the very same blood
of the very same God who is calling us out of the grave

Father forgive us, we know what we do
Father forgive us, we know what we do

we want to act justly and love mercy
and walk humbly with You
we need to hear the sound of Your voice
so we can stand united in truth
