Sail oh heart

Could a heart sail?
Could the dreams of even one so small come to pass?
Out of the billions of voices on the earth
Could this one’s be heard?

What do You ask of Your servant?
Will You help me come to that place?
Will You bring me to where You want me to be?
Will You make the way shine like the morning star?

Could the human heart yearn more?
Could desire be awakened on a grander scale?
Knowing I’m not alone
Trusting that You are good and faithful
Believing that You are who You say You are
Believing I am who You say I am

I know You have never left me
I know You have never forsaken me
Knowing that Your love carries Your own through
Like the wings of the wind, always there, impossible to pin down

More than the watchman waits for the morning
I wait for You
Over and over and over
Will You come?

The world offers me all it has again
Continually trying to wear me down
I know there is nothing lasting there
That is the key – lasting…

I have found the place of prayer to be the only place that brings life
Life breaks forth because we meet the author of life in that place
Why would I not want to know the author?
The very One who brought it all to pass?

I’m not trying so hard anymore
I don’t white knuckle life anymore
Father of Glory, You are the One who can bring Your plans about
I look to You again

Here is all that I can bring or give
Here is all that I could think or do
Grace, Lord, Grace

This is who I am

I set my heart again today to live for eternity

I am a stranger here, a pilgrim here, and I’m living for another age

May You find faith and love in my heart

This is righteous and what pleases the Father

Believing God through His Son, Jesus

The blind see, the deaf hear

The lame walk, the mute talk

Father of Glory, Bridegroom who is all beautiful

I dance before You

All fear is gone as I get lost in Your Presence

Spinning, leaping, flying

Faith rises in who You are

There is nowhere else I want to be

This is who I am

Lover King, Sacrificial lamb

You died even for me

While You hung on the tree

You kept choosing to stay

Roman whips and a jeer-filled crowd

Nails in Your Hands, splinters in Your back

You chose to stay

You were the expression of love

Did ever such love and sorrow meet?

You were the example of what love is

You were the first One, always the first

Thinking on You, drawing near

I think my heart has exploded inside me

Jesus, I love You

Every time they hit You

Every time they beat the nails in deeper

Every time You breathed on the Cross

You died, but You chose to stay

And then You rose from the grave

Forever enthroned in Heaven

Awesome One, You are exalted, the King is exalted

Forever Your truth shall reign

And I give my life to You

You are my Lord, You are the Lord

Throughout the endless ages

Even exalted in every nation of the earth

You will be magnified

I turn my heart to You now

This is who I am

For You are the Lord

You smooth my soul

In this place, with no fear, no trepidation

I believe all things are possible

You have been enthroned upon High

Jesus the Name above all Names

The secret place, the prayer room, lost in this sea of worship

This is who I am

I don’t fit in other places as I fit in this place

This is who I am and this is what I do

I turn my heart again upwards to You

My face as well and my arms outstretched

Are my feet touching the ground?

I never want to leave

This is who I am

Enraptured, impassioned, caught up

Worship in harmony

Strengthened with might by Your Spirit

Fire burns me now, is this life?

To know the depth and height of the love of Jesus

May Your power break in

That this great love would be made known

There is no end to this love

This is the love I want to know

Oh divine, oh immortal, Jesus

I love You

Pour out Your Spirit oh God

Make known Your Son, Jesus

That we might know and comprehend the love of God

The height, the width, the depth of Your zeal for who we are

King of Kings, Lord of Lords

This is who I love

That I would stand for righteousness, for holiness

That I would live worthy before You

That I would speak Your Word

That my spirit would be given over to God

Divine might – deep within

This is who I am
