PRAISE YOU WITH MY LIFE

Dana Reed Music, ASCAP/Drum Baby Music/ASCAP

Jesus
We give You the Glory
Savior
We bow down before You
We've come
To lift up Your holy name
You are
My comfort my shelter
You speak
And all of creation sings
Jesus
You are the Living Word

Bridge
You are Holy
You are Righteous
Full of mercy
You're the Prince of Peace
You're my Savior
My Redeemer
You are all that I need
You're my everything
Lord I love You
And I praise you with my life.

Verse 1
There's no fear
When You're near me
Only joy, joy unspeakable
Now there's hope
Where there was despair
And it's all because of You

Verse 2
When I doubt
And I worry
Then You say to my heart be still
I can stand and face every storm
And it's all because of You


THE LORD'S PRAYER

Our Father, who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Thy kingdom come
Thy will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our debts
As we forgive our debtors
And lead us not into temptation
But deliver us from evil
For Yours is the Kingdom
And the Power and the Glory
Forever Amen


YOU ARE GOD
Words & Music: Dana L. Reed

You are God
Mountains bow down to You
You are God
No one can do what You do
You are God
We lift up our hands to you
And declare that You are God

You Are God
Maker of everything
You are God
All heaven and nature sing
You are God
An offering of praise we bring
And proclaim that You are God

Your are Lord
In my heart You rule and reign
You are Lord
When You speak I will obey
You are Lord
My body is Your domain
And forever You are Lord

You're my King
I worship before Your throne
You're my King
You're will be done not my own
You're my King
All Glory is Yours alone
And forever You are King

IN YOUR PRESENCE, YOUR HOLY PRESENCE

In Your presence, Your holy presence
Troubles melt away
In Your presence, Your holy presence
Burdens roll away
For You do miracles
And You do wonders
There's healing in Your presence O Lord
There's healing in Your presence O Lord

JESUS LOVES ME

Jesus loves me
This I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to Him belong
They are weak but He is strong

Jesus loves me
He will stay
Close beside me all the way
He has washed away my sin
And now I live complete in Him

Chorus
Yes Jesus love me
Yes Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus love me
The Bible tells me so.

FACE TO FACE
Words & Music: Marcos Vidal
English Translation: Lyn Laboriel
©1997 Vidal Music

Just a solitary word Lord
Just a simple phrase will do
When I come into Your presence
Oh my Lord
Doesn't matter where I sit
At the table You've prepared
Or the color of my crown Lord
If you honor me so

Verse 2
Just a solitary word Lord
If I haven't lost my voice
If my tongue can find one word Lord
In Your presence
I don't need to ask a question
But I do have one request
And if we could be alone Lord
Let it be so

1st Chorus
Only let me look at You Lord
Face to Face
And then lose myself completely in Your gaze
Time would pause for one long moment
Not a word would need be spoken
Only let me look at You Lord
Face to Face

2nd Chorus
All my memories wash away Lord
In Your gaze
Let me love You with a silent hearts embrace
Time would pause for one long moment
Not a word would need be spoken
Only let me look at You Lord
Face to Face

3rd Chorus
Only let me look at You Lord
Face to Face
Even as I melt away Lord in Your gaze
Lying on the floor and broken
Barely breathing
Barely able
Still I see Your eyes and know
My Lord and Master

HE ALONE
Words & Music: Dana Reed
©2002 Dana Reed Music, ASCAP

He's the Alpha and Omega
Beginning and the End
Born the seed of David
A meek and humble lamb
He was a willing sacrifice
For me He gave His life
To gain my pardon
And take my guilt away

What a kind and loving savior
Jesus is to me
He filled me with His spirit
And loves me faithfully
And I will praise Him with my life
A living sacrifice
To give Him honor
And never ending praise

Chorus
For He alone is worthy to be praised
He alone is worthy
He alone has power in His name
Lift Him up
Give him all the praise

He is true and He is faithful
On Him I can depend
He's willing and He's able
To make me more like Him
And all He promised He will do
He's Word is life and truth
He is God's love song of never ending praise

Bridge
So praise him all you people
Lift your voice in one accord
Sing a loud Hosanna
Glorify the Lord

COME AND WORSHIP THE LORD OUR GOD
(Great and Mighty is He)

Come and worship the Lord our God
He is worthy of praise
He is ruler of everything
Every tongue will proclaim (declare, confess)
Lift your voice and shout to the King
Lord and Savior of all
Son of God and the Prince of Peace
Great and mighty is He

Bridge
Jesus is the victory
And I have been set free
He paid the price at Calvary
And now I am redeemed

Chorus
Jesus, Jesus
He is so good to me
Jesus, Jesus
By His grace, I am free

Verse
Come and worship the Lord our God
Jesus Christ is His name
Let His people all testify
Of His mercy and grace
Bring an offering before His throne
Lay your life at His feet
He is worthy of everything
Great and mighty is He.

Chorus
Jesus, Jesus
He is faithful to me
Jesus, Jesus
By His grace, I am free
