I Will Praise Him Still - September 26, 2010

Words and Music by Fernando Ortega

When the morning falls on the farthest hill
I will sing His name, I will praise Him still
When dark trials come and my heart is filled
With the weight of doubt, I will praise Him still

For the Lord, our God, He is strong to save
From the arms of death, from the deepest grave

And He gave us life in His perfect will
And by His good grace, I will praise Him still

There Is a Higher Throne - September 19, 2010

Words and Music by Keith & Kristyn Getty

There is a higher throne than all this world has known
Where faithful ones from ev'ry tongue will one day come
Before the Son we'll stand made faultless through the Lamb
Believing hearts find promised grace; salvation comes

Hear heaven's voices sing, their thund'rous anthem rings
Through emerald courts and sapphire skies, their praises rise
All glory, wisdom, pow'r, strength, thanks, and honor are
To God our King who reigns on high forevermore

And there we'll find our home, our life before the throne
We'll honor Him in perfect song where we belong
He'll wipe each tear-stained eye as thirst and hunger die
The Lamb becomes our Shepherd King; we'll reign with Him

Still, My Soul, Be Still - September 12, 2010

Words and Music by Keith & Kristyn Getty and Stuart Townend

Still, my soul, be still and do not fear
Though winds of change may rage tomorrow
God is at your side, no longer dread
The fires of unexpected sorrow

God, You are my God
And I will trust in You and not be shaken
Lord of peace, renew a steadfast spirit within me
To rest in You alone

Still, my soul, be still, do not be moved
By lesser lights and fleeting shadows
Hold on to His ways with shield of faith
Against temptation's flaming arrows

Still, my soul, be still, do not forsake
The truth you learned in the beginning
Wait upon the Lord and hope will rise
As stars appear when day is dimming

Sweetly Broken - September 5, 2010

Words and Music by Jeremy Riddle

To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink, of its work I do sing
For on it my Savior, both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love, and God is just

At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees
And I am lost for words, so lost in love
I'm sweetly broken, wholly surrendered

What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given through Christ crucified
You've called me out of death
You've called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I'm reconciled

In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love
And how great is Your faithfulness
