Chasing perfection, a fool but I'm aiming
I'm running the race by my strength but it's waning
Is Your grace not enough? What on earth am I gaining?
By chasing perfection, when I know I am failing

I've always heard…

Lead me to Your heart
Where love’s still beating.
Lead me to Your heart
Oh Lord, I’m pleading.
I want to know
While I’m still breathing.
Can’t wait anymore
For Your face’s revealing.

The Lord is the light of my life,
The King of my heart,
The Water of my spring.

He draws me out.
He unfolds me from my box.
He remakes me; reshapes me.
He sets His will inside of me…

Put Your voice to my ears that I may hear
And Your words to my mouth that I may speak.
And may the glory of the Lord press down on me
To provide everlasting peace.
Break my back to bow…

The clock’s hand strikes the hour,
The time is drawing near.
Bring out the horse and the rider,
Bring out the war and the fear.
Then triumph will erupt from Zion,
And the Lord shall be here.

Defender,
High tower,
My shield and sword.
My Father,
My Shepherd,
My God and Lord.

Deliver us,
Deliver us,
By Your mercy and love.

Redeem us,
Redeem us,
By the work of Your blood.

Let the Lord reign.
Let His…

Show me a revelation
Draw open the curtains
Roll back the clouds
And blot out the sun

Show me a revelation
In my dreams when I sleep
On my tongue when I speak
In the air when I breathe

Show…

Bring me to a secret place
Where we can meet face to face
A loving word, a touch of grace
Where I rest in Your embrace
Bring me to that secret place

Meet me by the waters clean
Or deep…

You stand in your podiums and your pews
You look across the crowds, you savour the view
Your mouths are full but your hearts are empty
Your souls are bared but the Spirit barred entry
A loveless dance of well-worn…

Come closer to Me and be still
Find rest in My wings and be well
You're weary and hurt I can tell
Come closer to Me and be still

When all around you, are swords and spears and bows
I'll…

Pour out Your spirit on me,
Oh Father, my God I plead
In desperation.

In times of trouble and need,
It's You I always seek.
Pour out Your spirit on me
I ask of Thee.

And in the waves of…

You're powerful in majesty
Your words have guided my destiny
You lift me up from troubled seas
And when You died You thought of me

How generous in love
How graceful in glory
That You would come down from above…
