Satisfied

1. All my life long I had panted
For a drink from some cool spring
That I hoped would quench the burning
Of the thirst i felt within

Chorus
Oh Hallelujah I have found Him
Whom my soul so long had craved
Jesus satisfies my longing
Thru' His blood I now I'm saved

2. Feeding on the husks around me
Till my soul was almost gone
Long I sought for something better
Only still to hunger on

3. Well of water ever springing
Bread of life so rich and free
Untold wealth that never faileth
My Redeemer is to me

To The River

The following medley was sung by Sounds Like Reign

O brothers let's go down
O sisters let's go down

To the river I am going
Bringing sins I cannot bear
Come and cleanse me, come forgive me
Lord I need to meet you there

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown?
Good Lord show me the way!

O brothers let's go down
O sisters let's go down

O sinners, let's go down

To the river (To the river)
I am going (I am going)
Lord I need (Lord I need)
to meet you there

Precious Jesus, I am ready
To surrender every care
Take my hand now, lead me closer
Lord I need to meet you there

Take my hand now, lead me closer
Lord I need to meet you there

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way

As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way

Whiter Than Snow

1. Lord Jesus, I long to be perfectly whole;
I want Thee forever to live in my soul;
Break down every idol, cast out every foe;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

Refrain
Whiter than snow, yes, whiter than snow;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

2. Lord Jesus, look down from Thy throne in the skies,
And help me to make a complete sacrifice;
I give up myself, and whatever I know;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

3. Lord Jesus, for this I most humbly entreat;
I wait, blessed Lord, at Thy crucified feet,
By faith, for my cleansing; I see Thy blood flow;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

4. Lord Jesus, Thou seest I patiently wait;
Come now, and within me a new heart create;
To those who have sought Thee,
Thou never said’st No;
Now wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

The Sinner's Prayer

Lord, You've touched my heart today
That is why I've come to pray
You see all I have inside
All the things I try to hide
Jesus, I believe that You are there
And You're listening
To this sinner's prayer
Touch this broken heart and make it new
I believe in You

Please forgive me for my sin
All I've done and all I've been
Serving You forevermore
Everyday You'll be my Lord
Jesus, I believe that You are there
And You're listening
To this sinner's prayer
Knowing You'll remember
What You've heard
I believe Your word

In Your name this prayer will end
And a new life will begin
Now I know I'm not alone
Hold my hand and lead me home

Break Down The High Place

1) In Israel’s time Jehovah God was God alone;
But soon they worshiped heathen idols made of stone.
The high place used to worship God now mocks His holy name.
He’s no longer God alone; His people bring Him shame.

Chorus:
Help me break down the high place once reserved for You.
Help me rebuild my alter and worship You anew.
Help me cast out all thoughts that exalt above Your own.
Help me listen for Your sweet voice so Your will is always known.

2) In my own life I longed for God to have first place.
But soon my focus turned away from His dear face.
My heart was once reserved for Him, but soon I went astray.
He’s no longer was God alone, I was seeking my own way.

3) Oh thank you, Lord, for loving me although I fall.
Please take my life and use it now I give You all.
I want You to have everything; to please You is my goal.
In my heart You’re God alone, my life You now control.

I Choose

lyrics by Rodney Griffin

Master, may I be so honest?  Could I admit the way I feel?
I’m hurting.  It seems that You’ve forsaken.
I wonder, is Your love for me still real?
Though my friends think I am happy, unaffected by this trial,
they can’t see the pain I’m hiding just underneath my smile.
Master, I can’t live this way anymore.  So, today, I make my choice.

I choose to believe that You are faithful, and my heart is in Your hands,
and this mystery that I face today is part of a greater plan.
I choose not to be discouraged when the sun will not break through.
I have the choice of trusting You.  So, Lord, this is what I choose.

I know the road will not be easy.  I know I’ll have my weaker days.
And Satan will tell me I don’t mean it when I say I’ll trust God all the way.
But that really doesn’t matter.  I refuse to hear him out.
With my faith, I’ll find the power that will overcome all doubt.
Lord, I’ve never felt so strong as when I’m resting in Your arms.

I choose to believe that You are faithful, and my heart is in Your hands,
and this mystery that I face today is part of a greater plan.
I choose not to be discouraged when the sun will not break through.
I have the choice of trusting You.  So, Lord, this is what I choose.

I choose to believe that You are faithful, and my heart is in Your hands,
and this mystery that I face today is part of a greater plan.
I choose not to be discouraged when the sun will not break through.
I have the choice of trusting You.  So, Lord, this is what I choose.
This is what I choose.  Gonna trust You, Lord.  I choose!''

Revive Us Again

1. We praise Thee, O God!
For the Son of Thy love,
For Jesus Who died,
And is now gone above.

Chorus:
Hallelujah! Thine the glory.
Hallelujah! Amen.
Hallelujah! Thine the glory.
Revive us again.

2. All glory and praise
To the Lamb that was slain,
Who has taken our sins,
And has cleansed every stain.

3. Revive us again;
Fill each heart with Thy love;
May each soul be rekindled
With fire from above.

4. Revive us Again
With His stripes we are healed
What a blessed redeemer
to cure and to shield

Standing On The Promises

1. Standing on the promises of Christ my King,
Thru eternal ages let His praises ring;
Glory in the highest I will shout and sing,
Standing on the promises of God.

Refrain
Standing, standing,
Standing on the promises
of God my Savior;
Standing, standing,
I’m standing on the promises of God.

2. Standing on the promises that cannot fail,
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail,
By the living word of God I shall prevail,
Standing on the promises of God.

3. Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord,
Bound to Him eternally by love’s strong cord,
Overcoming daily with the Spirit’s sword,
Standing on the promises of God.

4. Standing on the promises of healing love
Sent to sick and weary hearts from Christ above
Brought by wings of angels and the Heavenly Dove
Standing on the promises of God

The Shout of Faith

There’s a lie going round, “the devil can win”,
we believe it and give him an in.
I believe the vict’ry is ours,
The battle’s the Lord’s,
His strength our power.

Chorus (2x)
Shout the shout of faith with me!
Sing the song of victory!
Jesus saves! He is saving me now!

For our God is so willing, this very hour
Temptations are great, but much more His power
I believe the vict’ry is ours,
The battle’s the Lord’s,
His strength our power.

[Chorus 2x]

Bridge (ending):
Whisper it soft, shout it far.
Mountain top, crowded car.
Jesus saves! He is saving me now!
Jesus saves! He is saving me now!

Victory In Jesus

I heard an old, old story,
How a Savior came from glory,
How He gave His life on Calvary
To save a wretch like me;
I heard about His groaning,
Of His precious blood's atoning,
Then I repented of my sins
And won the victory.

Chorus
O victory in Jesus,
My Savior, forever.
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood;
He loved me ere I knew Him
And all my love is due Him,
He plunged me to victory,
Beneath the cleansing flood.

I heard about His healing,
Of His cleansing pow'r revealing.
How He made the lame to walk again
And caused the blind to see;
And then I cried, "Dear Jesus,
Come and heal my broken spirit,"
And somehow Jesus came and bro't
To me the victory.

I heard about a mansion
He has built for me in glory.
And I heard about the streets of gold
Beyond the crystal sea;
About the angels singing,
And the old redemption story,
And some sweet day I'll sing up there
The song of victory.

Faith Is The Victory

1. Encamped along the hills of light,
Ye Christian soldiers, rise,
And press the battle ere the night
Shall veil the glowing skies.
Against the foe in vales below,
Let all our strength be hurled;
Faith is the victory, we know,
That overcomes the world.

Refrain
Faith is the victory!
Faith is the victory!
Oh, glorious victory
That overcomes the world.

2. His banner over us in love,
Our sword the Word of God;
We tread the road the saints above
With shouts of triumph trod.
By faith they, like whirlwind’s breath,
Swept on o’er ev’ry field;
The faith by which they conquered death
Is still our shining shield.

3. To him who overcomes the foe
White raiment shall be giv’n;
Before the angels he shall know
His name confessed in heav’n.
Then onward from the hills of light,
Our hearts with love aflame;
We’ll vanquish all the hosts of night,
In Jesus’ conq’ring name.

Bow The Knee

There are moments in our journey
following the Lord
Where God illumines every step we take.
There are times when circumstances
make perfect sense to us,
As we try to understand each move He makes.
When the path grows dim
and our questions have no answers, turn to Him.

Bow the knee; trust the heart of your Father
when the answer goes beyond what you can see.
Bow the knee; lift your eyes toward heaven
and believe the One who holds eternity.
And when you don't understand
the purpose of His plan,
In the presence of the King, bow the knee.

There are days when clouds surround us,
and the rain begins to fall,
the cold and lonely winds won't cease to blow.
And there seems to be no reason
for the suffering we feel;
We are tempted to believe God does not know.
When the storms arise,
Don't forget we live by faith and not by sight.

Be Strong In The Lord

1. Be strong in the Lord, and be of good courage;
your mighty Defender is always the same.
Mount up with wings, as the eagle ascending;
victory is sure when you call on his name.

Refrain:
Be strong, be strong, be strong in the Lord,
and be of good courage for he is your guide.
Be strong, be strong, be strong in the Lord,
and rejoice for the victory is yours.

2. So  put on the armor the Lord has provided,
and place your defense in his unfailing care.
Trust him for he will be with you in battle,
lighting your path to avoid every snare.

3. Be strong in the Lord, and be of good courage;
your mighty Commander will vanquish the foe.
Fear not the battle for the victory is always his;
he will protect you wherever you go.

In Christ Alone

In Christ alone my hope is found
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand

In Christ alone, who took on flesh
Fullness of God in helpless babe
This gift of love and righteousness
Scorned by the ones He came to save
'Til on that cross as Jesus died
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live

There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ

No guilt in life, no fear in death
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
