Mercy Today


Mercy Today
You didn't come to call the righteous,the neat or the clean.You didn't come to ask perfection.You'd never ask that of me.You didn't come to bring peace,but came with a sword.You came to save the sick and wounded sinner,that's me, Lord.
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save
and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.

La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!
You want my compassion.Away with sacrifice.You clean all condemnation;my willful desires.You are unchanging.What can man do?Really, what can man do to mewhen my Savior is You?
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.

La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!
Mercy triumphs over judgment!Mercy triumphs over my will!Mercy, fall down like rain andI'll be still.I'll be still.Mercy today, mercy today,mercy today, mercy today.
There's no limit to grace today.No limit to how You save and You set me down in a wide open space and say,
Mercy today. Mercy today.”
Mercy today. Mercy today.

La, la hallelujah!La, la hallelujah!

Oh My Soul



Oh My Soul

Give ear to my prayer, O God.
Please don't hide from me.
I am restless.
Distracted by my enemy.
Trouble is on me.
Let me fly away
to Your refuge.
Let me stay.

Oh my soul,
oh my soul,
oh my soul rest.

Lord, You save.
You rescue.
You humble low.
Lord, You hear.
You speak.
You already know
Trouble is on me.
Let me fly away
to Your refuge.
Let me stay.

Oh my soul,
oh my soul,
oh my soul rest.

Redeem my soul, redeem my soul in peace.
Thank You. Thank You for hearing me.

Oh my soul,
oh my soul,
oh my soul rest.

Wait On Me



Wait On Me

Lord, You know I'm weary.
Lord, You know I'm worn.
Lord, You know I'm leery
of trusting You more.

Lord, You see me in motion.
Lord, You see me try.
Witness growing devotion
Lord, hear my cry.
You say,

“Wait, just wait 'til we raise our hands!
Wait, just wait 'til you trust I can!
Even through fears I see victory
so just wait, wait on me.”

Lord, You are stronger
than any pain of my past.
Your forgiveness is longer
than any shadow I've cast.
You say,
“Wait, just wait 'til we raise our hands!
Wait, just wait 'til you trust I can!
Even through tears I see victory
so just wait, wait on me.”

Hope will rise!
I've poured out all inside.
Oh, bless, bless my soul
while I'm letting go.

“Wait, just wait 'til we raise our hands!
Wait, just wait 'til you trust I can!
Even through fears I see victory
so just wait, wait on me.”

We Say Come



We Say Come

Fall like a fire
Spirit, come.
This is our desire
Cover every tongue.
Comfort our confession.
Lay it bare.
Fall like a fire
everywhere.

We say come.
We say come.
Holy fire, we say come.
We say come, breath of consolation.
We say come.
We say come.

Union with the Father.
Union with the Son.
Author that inspires
with revelation.
Counsel and wisdom,
give us the same.
Come to reveal
the glory of His name.

CHORUS

And it falls afresh on me!
It falls afresh on me!
It falls afresh on me,
oh, Spirit! Oh, Spirit!

We say come.
We say come.
Holy fire, we say come.
We say come, breath of consolation.
We say come.
We say come. (2x)

Fall like a fire.
Spirit, come.

Keep On Runnin'



Keep On Runnin'

It's the in between
Go and receive
You wait for me.
In the hidden things,
Still living
You speak to me.

So I shod my shoes
Kick dust loose
Gone to later on
I'm a keep on runnin'.
Keep on runnin'.

It's the living word
over all I've heard
from those Pharisees.
I'm pressin' on
Soon I'll be gone
Say what you want to me
Sweet Jesus carries me.

So I shod my shoes
Kick dust loose
Gone to later on
I'm a keep on runnin'
Keep on runnin'
Keepin' on one step faster.
Keepin' up with the Master
Hey, I'm a keep on runnin.
Keep on runnin'.

Gonna take some time to get there.
On many roads I don't know.
Gonna take some faith to see where
I'm going...
So I shod my shoes
Kick dust loose
Gone to later on
I'm a keep on runnin'.
Keep on runnin'.
Keepin' on one step faster.
Keepin' up with the Master
Keepin' on one step faster.
Keepin' up with the Master

Hey, I'm a keep on runnin.
Keep on runnin'.

Hebrews 12:1,2~ “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

Your Holy Name



Your Holy Name
Father, You are marvelous.
Wonderful. Lord, You are.
Father, You are the miracle.
The open door. Lord, You are.

So I praise Your holy name.
And I praise Your holy name.
Father, You are the solid ground.
No darkness found.
Lord, You are.
Father, You put Your hand on me.
Now I see. Lord, You are.

So I praise Your holy name.
And I praise Your holy name.
And I cry to You when I can't believe.
You say, “Rest on, rest on, rest on Me!”
You are more than I imagine.
More than I can see.
You pour out your precious life.
Pour it over me.
And I'm grateful, grateful!
So I sing...

Father, You are marvelous.
Wonderful. Lord, You are.
Father, You are the miracle.
The open door. Lord, You are.

So I praise Your holy name.
And I praise Your holy name.
