It's the song of the redeemed
Rising from the African plain
It's the song of the forgiven
Drowning out the Amazon rain
The song of Asian believers
Filled with God's holy fire
It's every tribe, every tounge, every nation
A love song born of a grateful choir

(chorus) (x2)
It's all God's children singin'
Glory, glory, hallelujah
He reigns,(pause) He reigns

Let it rise above the fore-winds
Caught up in the heavenly sound
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals
To the faithful gathered underground
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation
Some were meant to persist
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steaples
None rings truer than this

(chorus)(x4)

And all the powers of darkness
Tremble at what they've just heard
Cause all the powers of darkness
Can't drown out a single word

(chorus)(till end)
When all God's children sing out
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He reigns,(pause) He reigns

All God's children sing out
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He reigns, (pause) He reigns

All God's people singin
Glory Glory Hallelujah
He Reigns, (pause) He reigns
(back to orig. chorus)

. . .


I'm forgiven because you were forsaken
I'm accepted, you were condemned
I'm alive and well, Your Spirit is within me
Because you died and rose again

Amazing love, how can it be
That You, my King, should die for me?
Amazing love, I know it's true
It's my joy to honor you
In all I do, to honor you

You are my King
Jesus, You are my King
You are my King

. . .


If I rise on wings of dawn
Or drift in seas of doubt
Even there, your strong right hand
Has never failed to guide me out

(chorus)
Great is Your faithfullness
To carry on with a sinner like me
Great is Your faithfullness
Turning shame into victory
Your grace has never let me be
Your mercy's waited patiently
Oh, so great is Your faitfullness
To carry on with a sinner like me

If I hide in dark and shadows
Fearfull of each day
Even there
Your blinding light illuminates my pathway

(chorus)

Lord, Your goodness
Goodness never
Never fails
It never fails me

(chorus)

. . .


Tears have fallen water beads
Wipe the floor with my regrets
In the crevice tiny seeds
Spring to life from
Pardoned debts
And all I have is, all I have

Praises on my tongue
From my heart
For our God who became flesh
For us all
Unto you
I will sing my praises
Sing forever

In the quiet I lament
Every nail, my sin did buy
And I wonder why you spent
Lavish blood on such as I
When all I have is, all I have

Praises on my tongue
From my heart
For our God who became flesh
For us all
Unto you
I will ever sing my praises
I will sing forever

Oh, for a thousand
Tongues to sing
To sing aloud
Sing aloud
Oh, to the glory
Of my God and King
To sing aloud
Sing aloud

. . .


I'm here with the others
Who saw the heavens testify
Now I hang back in the shadows
I want to come close
I want to know
She sees me shivering here
She smiles and with a nod
I walk through the mud and straw
To the newborn Son of God

(chorus #1)
Come let us adore him
He has come down to this barren land
Where we live
And all I have to give Him
Is Adoration

He raises a wrinkled hand
Through the dust and the flies
Wrapped in rags like we are
And with barely open eyes
He takes my finger
And he won't let go
And he won't let go
It's nothing like I knew before
And it's all I need to know

(chorus #1)

(chorus #2)
Come let us adore him
He has come down to the world we live in
And all I have to give Him
Is Adoration

God is with us here
Our Immanuel
God is with us here
Our Immanuel

O come let us adore Him
O come let us adore Him
Jesus, Our Immanuel
Is with us here and he won't let go

(chorus #2)

. . .


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
'Till 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 it's 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

. . .


You are the author of knowledge
You can redeem what's been done
You hold the present and all that's to come
Until your everlasting kingdom

chorus:
Lord I don't know where all this is going
or how it all works out
lead me to peace that is past understanding
A peace beyond all doubt

You are the God of tomorrow
Turning the darkness to dawn
Lifting the hopeless with hope to go on
You are the rock of all salvation

chorus

Ohh Lord, you are the author
Redeeming what's been done
You hold us in the present
And all that is to come
(2x)

Lord we don't know where all this is going
Or how it all works out
Lead us to peace that is past understanding
A peace beyond all doubt
(3x til fade)

A sacrifice unto You
And create clean hearts
And, Lord, make our spirits new

(chorus)
Father, blessed Father
Lead and guide us for Your name's sake
And keep us in the shelter of Your presence
'Til we see Your face

Let us hear what You say
Let us know Your voice and all of Your ways
Take our hands, lead us home
To the refuge that we find in You alone

(chorus)

All adoration
To our Lord Redeemer
To our Shepard
Who carries us forevermore

Breathe on me
Breathe, oh, breath of God
Breathe on me

Oh Lord, oh Lord
'Til my heart is new

Breathe on me

step into the sunlight so bright
Illumination blocking out night
She knows that the promises are airtight
There is no doubt and you can see it in her eyes

You’ll hear her singing to heaven - even
Without letting out a word to be heard
In every single situation (none too big - none too small)
She looks up and the world looks on

She sings hallelujah
When all has become nothing
And her hope in the saviour
Has colored all she does
And taints the way she loves

She sings hallelujah
And falls to the ground again
With hands stretched up to the sky
Waiting for the day
She’ll hear the father say...

Step into the spotlight - so bright
A character check in the dead of night
To cut the stays of reason, till death defy
All understanding in the neighbour's eye
To run the race like this day's the last celebrate
In all we do and all we say look up
'Cause the world looks on

We sing hallelujah
When all has become nothing
Our hope in the saviour
Has colored all we do
Let it be for you

We’ll sing hallelujah
And fall to the ground again
With hands stretched up to the sky
We’re waiting for the day
We’ll hear the father say
Yeah, to hear him say
"Well done, good and faithful one
Enter in, come on, and share with me
Welcome home good and faithful one
On an on through eternity…"
