My God is bigger than...

My God is bigger than
the universe, than everything
stronger than an army
more wild than the sea

Nations will rise and fall at his will
all of his promises will be fulfilled
the stars and the planets move at a thought
and I am in awe

and I will fear you Lord (your word is right and true)
I will fear you lord (faithful in all you do)
I will fear you lord (in hope I will wait)
your love will never fail
and I will fear you lord

My God is small enough
to know me and everything I touch
there's nothing insignificant
he's all I want

and I will Love you lord


for those of us who fear
he is our strength our shield
for those who draw near
his love will not yield
my lips will sing his praise
and a new song will raise
for each day he creates

Everything is by his plans
my future is in his hands
beyond all space and time
I am his and he is mine

and I will praise you lord.

I'm going to praise you

When I wake in the morning when I see the sun rise,
when I look at your creation and know that I'm alive,
when my heart is full of joy, I'm going to reply
I'm going to praise you

for there's nothing in return to match your grace
there's no sacrifice to earn my place
there's nothing I can give, but the way I choose to live
I'm going to praise you


for the son you sent to die
the greatest sacrifice
only to rise from the grave
what else can I say?

there's a mountain I am climbing, and I can't see the peak
and my rutter has broken, in the middle of the sea
there's a rock I stand on and claim victory
I'm going to praise you


in the darkest of nights, in the darkest day
when it looks like i've got nothing, I'm still going to pray
when I've lost my voice, I'm going to find a way
I'm going to praise you

A Life of Praise

In the midst of suffering, toil, and grief
I will lift your name from the valleys to the peaks
and I will be joyful, I'll sing and I'll dance
but above all else your name will be raised

for you have called
for us to come to you
to give you my all
in every season
in every place and circumstance
I will live a life of praise

I'm a part of your creation separated at birth
you looked on me with pity and sacrificed your son
only to rise again to free us from the curse
I will sing your praises over again for what you have done!

no weapon formed
against me shall be raised
for you are lord
name above all names
you built the heaven and the skies
and for you I will arise
and live a life of praise

I will follow

When a cloud of sin is hanging
Your strength will I seek
when the winds of change start blowing
and the world is pulling me
I still hear You calling
though I want to run away
only You will I follow

Many have been tested
and many have failed
but your grace has been extended
from the cradle to the grave
When I've run out of answers
and there's nothing left to say
only You will I follow

No more words will be my own
every step I take your light will be shown
and I will never be alone
now that I follow you

It's harder to live with childlike faith
than to die like a man
it's harder to give up gold for grace
than it is to gain
through the eye of a needle
You are calling me
and only You will I Follow

We are called, we are called, we are called beyond despair
to carry on, carry on, we've got eternal life to share

Love and Devotion

If I caught the moon
pulled it down for you
would you think of me
when it lights up your room?

if I defended your name
and showed you the way
would you think I deserve
the time of day?

Did I give enough
Love and devotion
to get what I want
to get what I need?

If I start from the bottom
and don't complain
if I'm willing to do anything
and everything

will the time spent
give me a moment
to rise and come along
to where I belong?
