"If We Are The Body"

It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in trying to fade into the faces
The girl's teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know
Farther than they know

But if we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching?
Why aren't His hands healing?
Why aren't His words teaching?
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going?
Why is His love not showing them there is a way?
There is a way

A traveler is far away from home
He sheds his coat and quietly sinks into the back row
The weight of their judgemental glances
Tells him that his chances are better out on the road

Jesus payed much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the body of Christ

Jesus is the way

"Word Of God Speak"

I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay
The last thing I need is to be heard
But to hear what You would say

[CHORUS]
Word of God speak
Would You pour down like rain
Washing my eyes to see
Your majesty
To be still and know
That You're in this place
Please let me stay and rest
In Your holiness
Word of God speak

I'm finding myself in the midst of You
Beyond the music, beyond the noise
All that I need is to be with You
And in the quiet hear Your voice

[REPEAT CHORUS 2x]

I'm finding myself at a loss for words
And the funny thing is it's okay

[Trouvere]

Send Down Your Glory
Send Down Your Glory


okay I don't have the words for the jazzy music that goes along with this
but its in my head too.lol.

JESUS IS RIGHT
For Whatever's Wrong In Your Life

by: Shirley Cantrell


1. Before I met Jesus my life was empty and vain,
And nothing ahead could I see but sorrow and pain;
But, then at an altar one night I knelt
and I found assurance that never has left,
And Jesus was right for what was wrong in my life.

CHORUS:

Jesus is right for whatever's wrong in your life,
Jesus is right for whatever's wrong in your life;
Just give Him a chance and Jesus will prove
That every promise He made is true,
Jesus is right for whatever's wrong in your life.

2. Faith comes by hearing and hearing comes by the Word,
Just open your Bible and read 'til God's voice you've heard;
Then at an altar in repentance kneel,
and you'll find assurance that you'll know is real,
For Jesus is right for what ever's wrong in your life.

CHORUS:

This Is My Desire


This is my desire: to honor You.

Lord with all my heart I worship You.

All I have within me, I give You praise.

All that I adore is in You.

Lord I give You my heart,

I give You my soul, I live for You alone.

Every breath that I take,

Every moment I'm awake,

Lord have Your way in me.

[Pressing-On]

Breathe

This is the air I breathe.
This is the air I breathe.
Your holy presence living in me.
This is my daily bread.
This is my daily bread.
Your very Word spoken to me.

And I, I'm desperate for you.
And I, I'm lost without You.

This is the air I breathe.
This is the air I breathe.
Your holy presence living in me.

And I, I'm desperate for You.
And I, I'm lost without You.

Desperate for You,
(Desperate for You, desperate for You, desperate for You.)
Lost without you,
(Lost without You, lost without You, lost without You.)
I'm lost without you.
I'm desperate for you.

And I, I'm desperate for You.
And I, I'm so lost without You.
And I, I'm desperate for You.
And I, I'm lost without You.
I'm lost without You.
(I)
I'm lost without You, Jesus.
(I'm lost without You.)
I'm lost without You.
(I)
I'm desperate for You.
(I'm desperate for You.)

In Awe

In awe of your glory...in awe of your grace
In awe of the Spirit we feel in this place
You surround us, you astound us
Jesus, we're so glad you found us
We stand in awe of you, Lord

Your presence speaks peace to the storms that rage in us
You whisper compassion no song can describe
With hearts overwhelmed, Lord, we just want to praise you
Our words fall short of what we feel inside

In awe of your glory...in awe of your grace
In awe of the Spirit we feel in this place
You surround us, you astound us
Jesus, we're so glad you found us
We stand in awe of you, Lord

Here's an OLD ONE from David and the Giants that is not a rocking song, but a very gentle ballad...

I was the nails


VERSE 1: If I was the ground where Jesus knelt down to pray, I would have told him I loved him, in so many ways.
I would have liked to have been the flower, that drank of his tears.
I would have reached up to touch him and comfort him there. (CHORUS 1)

CHORUS1: But I was the cup, he was to drink of.
I was the hurt he felt inside.
And I was the nails,that held him there. And he was the answers to my prayers. (VERSE 2)

VERSE 2: I would have liked to have been the purple robe, they mnade my Jesus wear,I would have wrapped myself around him and showed him I cared.
And if I was a robin, looking down from a tree. I would have sung him a love song..."how could this be"? (CHORUS 2)

CHORUS 2: But I was the pain, uopn his back.
I was the thorns in his crown.
And I was the nails that held him there and he was the answers to my prayers. (VERSE 3)

VERSE 3: And if I was the sun I'd ask, "what will be my fate"?
and if I was the earth, I'd tremble and shake.
And if I were the coulds, I would thunder and cry
Oh, but I was the spear, thatpierced his side (CHORUS 2 THEN ENDING)

ENDING: He was the answers to my prayers.
He was the answers to my prayers.




Every time I hear that song, I get a big lump in my throat. Beautiful song and lyrics.
