Today, I set my heart on a pilgrimage
A journey to the Most High
Finding my strength in God alone
Rejecting passivity
Again I rise
I press on
Turning away from glitter
Letting go of anxiety
Looking to Jesus
He is my author, He, the finisher of my faith
Strength to strength again
My goal, the magnificent Prize of Christ
I will see my God in Zion
There He will satisfy my soul
There Oh God, is where I want to reap
The joy of the whole earth
I will not lose heart
Turning my eyes upwards
Gazing, scanning, looking, longing
To the Most High, my brilliant tribute
You are the light at the end of my tunnel
You are my very present hope
I embrace this wild country
There is no shadow of death for me
For where I am, there You are
I have no fear
Trepidation and care flee from me like terrified prey
Now I, on the offensive
Flinging my hope and trust Heavenward
You pour out grace and glory on Your ones
How blessed is the man who trusts in You
Surely goodness and mercy always comfort
Everyday of his life
Covering, surrounding, emboldening
Ready for devotion or war
Hands prepared for praise, or equipped for battle
Waiting for the command
Gathered with the throng
Because we love You
Longing just to be with You
Having no greater joy
Fascinated in delight in Your Presence
Help us, Oh Father
To know how to rend these hearts
Fully Yours
You are the potter, here is the clay
Burn, mold, shape, and renew
All to You
I arise and seek the One I love
I must find this One
Can not live without
Can not do without
I lift the latch and peer through the lattice
I call out, I run out, I search for this great Love!
My passion in life, to know
All these other goals must bow
On this journey of love to be with You
Returning again to Divine primacy
This One thing…
King of endless worth
Are You, Lord God
The only Almighty
As a slain lamb
As a conquering lion
You are more worthy than I know
Believing in the coming King
Jesus, who will return to Mt. Zion
Splitting the sky and mountain
Even hearts and souls
Release Revelation
Even so, Come Lord
Making a solemn vow
A covenantal stand
Placing my heart, soul, and mind
That this life would be lived as worship
That this heart will be given over in love
That this allegiance will be sworn
That I will cling to You alone
For You are jealous
For You are worth it
For You are Love
You are God
Jesus, I am Yours
This heart, forever
Just wanting to be with You
Not afar off or after busyness
Now, a stilled heart
Now, a steadfast mind
Now, an ardent resolve
Come and take Your place!
Even now, in the center of our hearts!
You, who are the center of it all!
Have primacy in my heart
Have the head seat in my soul
Take Your place!
Today my soul is lost in longing
Propelled out of the dry land
Flourishing in this richest of fare
Springs exploding up
Waters and a lavish oasis of soul
You, who are the Center of it all
Pouring down now
My soul longs for You
Rising up on strength that is not my own
I draw near, You draw closer
Is this supernatural grace?
Closer still
By the Spirit, putting to death the flesh
Being led by the Spirit now
As an heir, as a son, as one who belongs
Let the light of Your countenance shine
Under these wings, I want to live
Break in with the Spirit of wisdom and revelation
Reveal the knowledge of God to Your own
Give the wisdom of the Holy One
The hope of this calling
To see Jesus in all glory
To see greater things for this city
Even in this day and hour
