Let It Be So With Your Church

Lyrics

Verse 1:
As our Jesus in love touched the leper
Offered grace when they’d cast a stone
As he ate with the outcasts and sinners        
With his church, let it be so 

Verse 2:
As he preached the good news of the kingdom
As he healed them both body and soul
As he gave up his life for God’s children
With his church, let it be so

Chorus:
Let it be so with your church, O God
We are your hands and feet
As Jesus bent low to serve in love
So with us let it be
So with us let it be

Verse 3:
Let us go with our Lord to the margins
To the broken, the poor and the lost
By His Spirit, we’ll push back the darkness
Let his church take up her cross 

Chorus

Bridge:
Come help us, Lord Jesus
To love as you loved (Oh, let it be so)
We remember your gospel
How you first loved us (Oh, let it be so)

To seek justice, love mercy
And care for the weak (Oh, let it be so)
To live now in light of
The kingdom we seek (Oh, let it be so)

Joy (As Far As the Curse Is Found)

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Eternal God, there at the beginning
Stepping into time, into the world
All for love, the infinite descending
To kick inside the womb of a girl

Verse 2:
A king is born, far from any palace
Bending low to serve instead
Majesty, He’s given up his status
Robed in the weakness of the flesh

Pre-chorus:
Unto us a child is born
Heaven coming down to earth
Joy to all the weary world
The human soul will feel it’s worth

Chorus:
Joy to the world Good, good news
O come let us adore Him
Joy to the world
It’s breaking through
He’s come and he will come again

Verse 3:
Let’s go with the wise men
Laying down our treasures
Falling on our knees to give him praise
With the angel choir
Singing to the shepherds
Glory to God in the highest place

Pre-chorus:
Unto us a child is born
Heaven coming down to earth
Joy to all the weary world
The human soul will feel it’s worth
It’s worth!

Chorus:
Joy to the world Good, good news
O come let us adore Him

Joy to the world
It’s breaking through
He’s come and he will come again

Bridge:
As far as the curse is found
As far as the curse is found
As far as the curse is found
As far as the curse is found
(Joy to the world)

As far as the curse is found
(Let earth receive her king)
As far as the curse is found
(Let all creation sing)

As far as the curse is found
(And let his blessings flow)
As far as the curse is found
(Til the whole world knows!)

We Draw Near (Hebrews)

from Hebrews 4, 9, 10

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Year by year, in the temple
Blood was shed by the priest
To atone for the people
But it could not make them clean

Pre-Chorus 1:
Til He came, spotless Lamb
Offered himself, put away sin
Once and for all, once and for all
It is finished!

Chorus:
So, we draw near
We boldly come
Jesus, our righteousness
Washedby his blood

We draw near
To your throne of grace
Jesus, our confidence
Seeking your face

Verse 2:
Our High Priest, Word made flesh
Worthy of the Holy Place
Curtain torn, at His death
Christ the new and living way

Pre-Chorus 2:
Rising up, he entered in
He sat down, at Your right hand
He is alive, He is alive!
Interceding!

Chorus

Bridge (2x):
Let our praises
Rise up as an incense
Filled with reverence and awe

Let our lives be
Poured out for your glory
Pleasing to You God

Tag:
We are seeking your face
Seeking your face
Seeking your face

Do Not Lose Heart

Lyrics

Though outwardly we waste away
Our flesh and foe assail us
Though we grow weary on the way
The promise will not fail us

We feel the ache, our spirits groan
We long for full redemption
When God will bring His children home
Forever to be with Him

Do not lose heart, our hope is stronger
Jesus is risen up
Do not lose heart, our king has conquered
And He will overcome

Though suffering is long and hard
It’s only momentary
Compared to heaven’s great reward
Eternal weight of glory

We fix our eyes upon the cross
Where he endured our shame
We hold to love that can’t be lost
And joy that will not fade

Do not lose heart, our hope is stronger
Jesus is risen up
Do not lose heart, our king has conquered
And He will overcome
So we will overcome

Bought with the blood
Sealed by the Spirit
When the storm rises
We will not fear it
Beloved children
Heirs of the Father
He is our trust
Our hope is stronger

From Him, to Him

Lyrics

O, the depths of the riches
Of the wisdom and the knowledge
Of our God, our God

How unsearchable his judgments
How unfathomable his ways!
Who could be His counselor?
Could give Him a gift He must repay?

For from Him and to Him
All things through Him (Amen!)
Honor, power
Glory forever to Him (Amen!)

He was in the beginning
His blood has bought our peace
Over, above, before
The Son, the risen Lord
Exalted over everything!

He is Risen

Lyrics

He is risen, He is risen
And the stone is rolled away
He is risen, He is risen
Proven by the empty grave

Touch his wounds, his hands, his side
And leave all your doubts behind
He is risen, He is risen
He is risen and alive

Death is beaten, sin is vanquished
God’s just wrath is satisfied
Christ is risen, Christ exalted
Seated at the Father’s side

His body torn, our living way
Our living hope, His body raised
He is risen, He isrisen
He is risen from the grave

He is risen, He is risen
This is all my hope and stay
He is risen, He is risen
He is risen from the grave!

Jesus risen is returning
We are longing for the day
When the King will bring the kingdom
For this blessed hope we wait

The trumpet sounds and we are changed
And we will see him face to face
Jesus risen, Jesus risen
Jesus risen from the grave

The trumpet sounds and we are changed
And death itself will pass away
We are risen, with him risen
We are risen from the grave

Wake Up

Lyrics

Through oneman death it came
Running like a virus through our veins

Sin it comes and takes the reigns
Builds its kingdom on the backs of slaves

Through a second man Adam’s better son
Death it dies, and life it comes

Every power under his feet
Death is dyin’ in defeat

Wake up, wake up
And listen for the trumpet sound
For a dead man rose up from the ground

Rise up, rise up
You dry bones in the dirt
For the Son of God has risen up first

I tell you this mystery
Death itself will lose its sting

When the dying dress in the deathless life
And we are changed in the twinkle of an eye

Sown in weakness, raised in power
Sown in dust, death and dishonor
Raised immortal, never again to die
Death is swallowed up by life
