11 The Giving Song
Overcome
What would You have me to write?
What would you have me to tell the world?
What could I possibly say?
How could I possibly change the way things are?
With so many hurting
Ominous evil and darkness is lurking
Where is the good in the world anymore, Lord?
Tell them I AM here
I AM watching it all
Please don’t fear
Don’t you know that I have overcome?
Lord, I confess I’m afraid
Too scared to stand up against the tide
Better to just play it safe
Though it’s getting harder to look away
When love looks like justice and mercy
To love without limit ‘cause no one can hurt me
Father, forgive them for they don’t know
What they are doing
CHORUS:
Tell them I AM here
I AM watching it all
Please don’t fear
Don’t you know that I have overcome?
Tell them I AM here
I AM lifting you up
The end is near
Don’t you know that I have overcome?
Haven’t I already overcome?
I have told you these things
So that in Me you may have peace
I have told you these things
So that in Me you may have peace
CHORUS
Tell them I am here
I am with you
I’m coming back for you
It won’t be long
You Save Me
(Psalm 119)
It was good for me to be afflicted
That I might learn Your decrees, Lord
And all of those years in the desert
Kept me thirsting for Your word on my knees
If Your law had not been my delight
I would have perished in the fight
And I will never forget Your wisdom
For by it You renewed my life
CHORUS:
And You save me, with every word
And You show me what I am worth to You
Age to age, Your Truth remains
I meditate on it day and night
Your word is light, it is life
Your word is living and active
Penetrating every part
Dividing of soul and spirit
And judging the intention of the heart
And great peace have those who love it
In freedom will they walk about
And nothing can make them stumble
Especially when it’s spoken out loud
CHORUS
I have put my hope in Your word
It sustains me and I will live on
I have put my hope in Your word
You sustain me and I will live on
CHORUS
You Go Before
You have the answer before the question
You know the ending before it’s begun
You set the rain and the clouds in motion
Knowing full well You would bring back the sun
Ready and waiting with kind provision
Like a lighthouse that shines thru the storm
A vision of land for the homesick sailor
You go before
You are the comfort for every heartache
You were the healing before there was hurt
Doling out strength for the worn and weary
With storehouses brimming with gifts none could earn
You’re the Great King and Your Kingdom will come
With sure victory after the war
Brave on the frontline of all these battles
You go before
What do you need?
He’s already there
Where do you bleed?
He’s come prepared
He even knew that the void in your heart
Would be something you could not ignore
It’s high time we lean on the loving Father
Who goes before
Whatever you’re facing comes at no surprise to Him
Picking you up off the floor
Look up ahead to your promised inheritance
He goes before
I’m gonna lean on that loving Father
Who goes before
No Longer My Own
Inspired by ‘A Covenant Prayer’ adapted by John Wesley
Put me to doing
Put me to suffering
Put me to what You will
Let me full
Or let me have nothing
To You I wholeheartedly yield
CHORUS:
For I am no longer my own but Yours
I am no longer my own but Yours
Let me be working
Or lay me aside
Exalted for You or brought low
All to Your pleasure
I’m at your disposal
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
CHORUS
And this covenant now made on Earth
Let it be satisfied in Heaven
This covenant now made on Earth
Let it be satisfied in Heaven
Let it be satisfied in Heaven
Amen
Glorious God, Blessed Redeemer
You are mine forevermore . . . .
CHORUS
Oh, I am no longer my own but Yours
Oh, I am no longer my own but Yours
Amen
Lucky To Be Breathing Your Air
Lucky to be breathing Your air
Lucky to be filling this space
Lucky to be counted as one
Who gets to know amazing grace
Lucky to be one of your own
Lucky to be never alone
Me…right from the day I was born
It’s just as if I was sworn into
This sweet life with You
You’re the Lover of my soul
You…have kept me close to Your side
I couldn’t run if I tried
Because Your relentless Love
Would just keep pulling me back again
Lucky to be breathing Your air
Lucky to be filling this space
Lucky to be counted as one
Who gets to know amazing grace
Lucky to be wearing Your crown
Lucky to be one who was found
Little’ole me…I’m just a girl with a dream
The one that You have so lavished on
There is no single song
That could ever contain it all
Lucky to be breathing Your air
Lucky to be filling this space
Lucky to be counted as one
Who gets to know amazing grace
Lucky to be freed of my shame
Lucky just to utter Your Name
Call it blessed, call it fortunate
The word’s not important
But that it’s not by chance
But divine Providence
Lucky to be breathing Your air
Lucky to be filling this space
Lucky to be counted as one
Who gets to know amazing grace
Lucky to be wearing your crown
Lucky to be one who was found
Lucky to be breathing Your air
Lucky to be filling this space
Lucky to be counted as one
Who gets to know amazing grace
Lucky to be one of your own
Lucky to be never
Lucky to be never alone
Lead Me to Your Love
I don’t claim to understand
The mysteries of the spirit man
All I know is if there’s more
Then Jesus lead me to it
Standing at the altar now
My hungry heart gets fed somehow
A sweet release, a sacred vow
Deep down, in truth, I knew it
The Love of God is like that, strong
It cuts you to the core
You might dread that you came early
Then wish you stayed for more
It clears away the cobwebs
Revealed by it’s Great Light
It makes you stand up straight
No longer fearful of the fight
Oh, Jesus, lead me to Your Love
Tongues and words of prophecy
Signs and miracles and dreams
All these supernatural things
It’s hard to muddle through it
But, this ole’ world’s a great big mess
I’m sick of all the wickedness
Someone’s gotta fix this mess
And I know Who can do it
The Love of God is like that, strong
And He’s coming back again
For His power is unequaled
And you will not see Him bend
He’ll be riding on a great, white horse
With eyes that blaze like fire
And written on His robe:
The King of kings and Lord of lords
Oh, Jesus, lead me to Your Love
I don’t claim to understand
The mysteries of the spirit man
All I know is if there’s more
Then Jesus lead me to Your Love
Be My Sabbath
If faith without works is dead
I need to die for a day
Or a very long weekend
Did you hear what I just said
I need to die for a day
I just need a break
For I am not a machine
Can’t keep going and going
Without a reprieve
And I can’t do this anymore
I’m empty
CHORUS:
Be My Source, Be My Sabbath
Take this poor and tattered life
You can have it
Come swallow me up
I’ve had quite enough
I’m ready to crash into Your arms
Be My Source, Be My Sabbath
Please God, don’t hear me complain
You know I love what I do
I’m a bondslave to You
You said those willing to wait
They will walk and not faint
You renew their strength
Well, I’m a dead battery
Corroded and rusty
And good for nothing
And I can’t do this anymore
I’m empty
CHORUS
Jesus, One and Only
Jesus, One and only
Jesus, come and hold me
For the night is getting long
Jesus, send your Love down
Jesus, drain this fear out
For the night is getting long
Heart so tender, knees so weak
Frail against the aching need
Jesus, won’t You please
Just take my heart
As I bring it to You
Jesus, I remember
Learning to surrender
How your kindness leads me on
Jesus, be my First Love
Always ever enough
Yielded to You, I’ll be strong
Wounded Healer, Faithful Friend
Carry me to Hope again
Come and wrap your arms
Around my heart
As I bring it to You
Jesus, One and only
Jesus, come and hold me
For the night is getting long
For the night is getting long
I Love Your Company
I love your quirky laugh
Did you know I gave you that
And even when your heart is sad
I love your company
I love your crooked smile
Haven’t seen it for awhile
You know that I could help you
Through this trial
How I love your company
No agenda. No set goal.
All I ever wanted was for you to know
That I delight in spending one on one time, time, time
I love that you can spell
And cheer you on when you excel
But, even when you don’t do well
I love your company
I hear those jumbled thoughts
Girl, you think an awful lot
Do you know in my heart for you is
A real soft spot
How I love your company
You can sit, you can cry, or simply abide
Find your rest by My side
You don’t have to do a single thing
Peace be still, you’ll be fine
Be My branch, I’ll be your Vine
I have loved you all this time
I just want your company
And I long to meet your need
How I love when you just…breathe
You can sit, you can cry, or simply abide
Find your rest by My side
You don’t have to do a single thing
Peace be still, you’ll be fine
Be My branch, I’ll be your Vine
I have loved you all this time
I just want your company
Time with Me is still free
Don’t you know that I have been here
All your life
And I love your company
Don’t forget you and Me
Whatever is True (Phil 4:8)
Whatever is true, whatever is noble
Whatever is right, whatever is pure
Whatever is lovely and admirable
I will think on these things, Lord
I will think on these things
Whatever is true, whatever is noble
Whatever is right, whatever is pure
Whatever is excellent or most worthy of praise
I will think on these things, Lord
I will think on these things
And the peace of God will deliver me
And the peace of God will bring Truth to me
And the peace of God will take hold
Of the things of my life
Jesus, You’re true. Jesus, You’re noble.
Jesus, You’re right. Jesus, You’re pure.
Jesus, You’re lovely and most admirable
I will think on Your Name, Lord
I will think on Your Name
The Giving Song
Lyrics from Annie Johnson Flint’s “He Giveth More Grace”, music by Cheri Keaggy
He gives us more grace
When the burdens grow greater
He sends us more strength
When the labors increase
To added afflictions
He adds on His mercies
To multiplied trials
His multiplied peace
When we have exhausted
Our store of endurance
When our strength has failed
Though the day is half done
When we reach the end
Of our hoarded resources
Our Father’s full giving is only begun
Yes, our Father’s full giving is only begun
His love has no limit
His grace has no measure
His power no boundary
Known unto men
For out of His infinite riches in Jesus
He gives and He gives
And keeps giving again
Oh, He gives and He gives
And keeps giving again
All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
