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
