The Blood On Which I Live

Leadsheet

v.1
Come now deaf and dying souls,
Hearts made harder than stone.
May you hear that sweetest song,
There’s life in Christ alone.

(chorus)
Jesus saves the wretch and the sinner,
And the weak who have nothing to give.
And the blood he shed on Calvary
Is the blood on which I live.

v.2
Come now silent suff’ring saints,
Jesus knows your pain.
Fix your gaze upon his cross,
And you shall sing again.

v.3
Come now Jesus take us home
Hear your weary church groan.
Then your bride made beautiful,
Will dance with you alone.

In This House

Leadsheet

In this house tonight
Gathered in His name,
There are sons and daughters of the King.

In this house tonight
We lay differences aside,
And in this we pray
And agree…

God our Father,
Christ our Savior,
Spirit help us
To bring Your peace

Desire of the Ages

Leadsheet

v.1
I have rested upon riches,
And I have boasted in my health
I have bought into a dream
I've relied upon myself

Now I kneel amidst the ruins
Of this disneyland charade.
And I pray you'd be my treasure
That the empty pleasures of this world might fade.

(chorus)
Desire of the ages
Oh i want to want you more
Than feeble faith can realize,
Than the things that I adore.

Desire of the ages
May everything I own,
Reflect the awesome value,
Of Christ and Christ alone.

v.2
I have trusted in man's wisdom.
I have sought the world's success.
I have coveted possessions,
Craving more and caring less.

Take this selfish, wicked heart, Lord,
I pray you make it something new.
A heart that worships only God,
For nothing is impossible with you.

(after repeat of chorus)
Desire of the ages
The universe proclaims
Your majesty and power
Your worthiness and fame.

Follow Me


v. 1
These words that I say
Are hard to obey
Let those with ears to hear
Heed and draw near

(chorus)
Those things you prize consider loss
Put down your pride and pick up your cross
Prepare to die and count the cost
And come and follow me


v. 2
Even birds have their nest
And the fox has his rest
There's no place i lay my head
Let the dead tend the dead

(bridge)
Take my yoke upon you and learn from me
For my burden is light and my yoke is easy


v. 3
Then one day we will feast
Where the first shall be least
And this lowly lovely bride
Shall sit by my side

Soli Deo Gloria

Leadsheet

v.1
Lord, in you alone let us be satisfied.
Lord, that you alone might be most glorified.
You alone are worthy, you've always been the same.
You alone are holy, we tremble at your name,
We take refuge in your name.

v.2
Lord, in you alone let us be satisfied.
Lord, that you alone might be most glorified.
You alone are worthy, the shepherd and the lamb.
You alone are holy, you're the great I am.
You're the great I am..

(chorus)
Soli Deo gloria
Soli Deo gloria
To God alone be the glory
To God alone be the glory.

Lord, in you alone let me be satisfied.
Lord, that you alone might be most glorified.
In me...

Lord You're Lovely

Leadsheet D; Leadsheet F

v.1
There are times that I behold your beauty.
There are times I don't see you at all.
Open my eyes, Lord and teach me to taste and see,
You're everything, my all in all.

(chorus)
Lord You're lovely
May you be the fragrance of my life
Lord you're worthy
The spotless lamb, my sacrifice
You are holy
A purifying fire for my soul
You are Jesus
And your name is wonderful.

v.2
Lord I see you seated on the throne
The train of your robe fills the templG
You bathe the earth in your glory, most holy god
You touch my lips and i am still.

(bridge)
Counselor
Prince of peace
Mighty God, are You Lord

Lovely
Worthy
Holy, are You Lord.

v.3
Christ I see you nailed upon the cross.
Blood and sweat flow down around your eyes.
You turn your head to me, smiling you say "truly
You'll be with me in paradise".
