The Worship Song

V1:
We gather here to worship You, oh God
We lift our hearts in this place
Praising the One who consumes every longing
This fire deep within we embrace.

Chorus:
Your mercy is flowing like a river before us
Sinking into our souls
As we lift our voices in this mighty chorus
Your spirit is making us whole.
Repeat.

V2:
Humbled and broken we stand before you
Unworthy to call out Your name
But still you draw near to redeem Your children
Forever, sweet Jesus, You'll reign.

Chorus:
Your mercy is flowing like a river before us
Sinking into our souls
As we lift our voices in this mighty chorus
Your spirit is making us whole.
Repeat

Bridge:
Be exalted in this place
Be exalted in this place
Be exalted in this place
Oh God!
(Repeat at least 3 more times)

Repeat chorus.


Song facts: Chorus was written a few days ago, verses written today. I actually finished a song! This doesn't happen very often because I tend to write a chorus then move on to a new song. Wahoo. It's not that hard to figure out, this song is for unified group worship.

I Wanna Be With You

I wanna be with You, Jesus
I wanna be with You, God
That intimate connection
So they see You in my reflection
In all I say and do
I wanna be with You.

Till all my days are through
My God, this claim is true
You're the one I'm running to

I wanna be with You, Jesus
I wanna be with You, God
That intimate connection
So they see You in my reflection
In all I say and do
I wanna be with You.


Song facts: Written during World Lit. a few days ago. I guess that class was good for something. The music kind of reminds me of Hootie and the Blowfish. Random, I know. It's just a simple rock chant type thing.

You Alone

You alone can heal my spirit
You alone can bring me comfort
And you alone can satisfy the hunger in my weary soul
You alone can mend the broken
You alone can claim I'm spoken for
And I will offer all my life to You alone.

Okay, try to follow me here. These choruses are sung at the same time. The first is the main moving part, and the second is the slower background part.

You alone can fill the emptiness in me
And I will glorify you alone.

So...together, you have...

You.................................a
You alone can heal my spirit
lone....................................can
You alone can mend the broken
fill.................................the emp.....ti......ness.. in........ me
And you alone can satisfy the hunger in my weary soul
..........................................And I...
You alone can mend the broken
.........................................Will........ glor-i-
You alone can claim I'm spoken for
..................-fy................you...........alone.
And I will offer all my life to You alone.

Got it?
