Father of goodness
Only you satisfy
Your glory and graciousness
Furthers the wise
What can sustain us?
In all we pursue
You delight in righteousness
You renew the used
Our hearts are satisfied
In your hands
You breathe meaning into life
With your plans
Nothing in this world
Could ever contend
With the lord who sees it all
Beginning to end
Father forgive us
For fleeting attempts
Your constant graciousness
Compels our repent
Sign your commandments
Upon our hearts
Fear of our holy lord
Will set us apart
He is the final judge
He knows all that is done
Injustice will not stand
The world will pass away
and light will make its claim
Expelling death and pain
the world will know His name
and Jesus Christ will reign

Lyrics
Like the early sky awaken us
Rouse our hearts from the deepest sleep
To see Your glory upon the earth
Help us live as Your hands and feet
Lord, your glory fills
All who seek You first with gladness
In your faithfulness
You will strengthen and uphold us
Remain near to us
You plant the seeds and call us to move
Across the soil reaping unto You
Praise on our lips as we see Your truth
Nations, Lord, You will make anew
Lord, your glory fills
All who seek You first with gladness
In your faithfulness
You will strengthen and uphold us
Remain near to us
When our eyes can’t see
And we fail to speak
Help us rise again
When our hearts condemn
Let Your word stand firm
Let Your truth defend
When our eyes cant see
And we fail to speak
Help us rise again
When our hearts condemn
Let Your word stand firm
Let Your truth defend
Lord, your glory fills
All who seek You first with gladness
In your faithfulness
You will strengthen and uphold us
Remain near to us

Prince of Peace (Live)

Although death devastates
leaves clamour in its wake
and the heaviness is more than hearts can hold
There is a counsellor to seek
whose ragged holes in hands and feet
bear witness to a love that mends the soul
Our Prince of Peace
Our steadfast hand
You are the oil and balm of Gilead
You soothe our aching bones
and our wretched souls
Our Prince of Peace
The Son of Man
Although storms take their toll
leave unrest in hollow hulls
and it feels we are adrift in endlessness
There is a servant on a cross
losing more than we have lost
who can lavish everlasting peace and rest
Our Prince of Peace
Our steadfast hand
You are the oil and balm of Gilead
You heal our broken homes
and our grieving souls
Our Prince of Peace
Our servant Lord
When the sun has set its last
All the years have left their mark
all my failures and triumphs have turned to nought
There is a father who outlasts
Who has turned his face to us
who will gather all the saints his love has bought
Our Prince of Peace
Our steadfast hand
You are the oil and balm of Gilead
You soothe our aching bones
and our wretched souls
Our Prince of Peace
The Son of Man
Our Prince of Peace
Our steadfast hand
You are the oil and balm of Gilead
You heal our broken homes
and our grieving souls
Our Prince of Peace
Our servant Lord

I’m not worthy to be called your own
I’m not worthy to approach your throne
I’m not worthy – Lord I have fallen
I’m not worthy – but you have chosen
To show your glory in my weakness
To make me right before you God
I’m not worthy but you restore me
your grace abounds to save this soul
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
Jesus bought us and He knows our name
His blood has taken all our sin and shame
Gracious Father, though we were far
Called your children and so we are
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
By your grace – My debt was paid
A way was made
Now worthy – because you came
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
Glory glory
The king has chosen to know me
