Skies spin their dance within Your breath
Time runs its race within Your hand
And my mind runs wild to comprehend
What no mind on earth could understand
Your ways are higher
Your thoughts are wilder
Love came like madness
Poured out in blood-washed romance
It makes no sense but this is grace
And I know You're with me in this place
Here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Here now
Fix my eyes on things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
'Cause I know You're in this place
Faith makes a fool of what makes sense
But grace found my heart where logic ends
When justice called for all my debts
The Friend of sinners came instead
Your ways are higher
Your thoughts are wilder
Love came like madness
Poured out in blood-washed romance
It makes no sense but this is grace
And I know You're with me in this place
Here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
'Cause I know that You are
Here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
Oh Lord yeah
'Cause I know that You're here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
Oh oh yeah
'Cause I know You're in this place
Oh Lord I know
I know you are with me
I know you are with me
The Spirit is within me
Cannot live without Your love
Cannot live without Your love oh oh oh
Because I know that You are here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on the things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
'Cause I know that You are here now
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on the things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
'Cause I know that You are here now oh
Still my heart
Let Your voice be all I hear now
Fix my eyes on the things that I can't see now
Spirit breathe like the wind come have Your way
'Cause I know You're in this place

Say The Word
Say the word and there is light
Say the word and dead bones rise
Every start and end hangs on Your voice
For Your word never returns void
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
It will remain
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Word made flesh You wrote in grace
Promise kept through cross and grave
Over words of stone You spelled out love
And when You say it is done
It is done
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
It will remain
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Cause I know Your word will never ever fail
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Say the word and dead bones rise
Every start and end hangs on Your voice
For Your word never returns void
Written in a billion skies
Speaking to this heart of mine
All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say
It will remain
And my soul will hang on every word You say
Word made flesh You wrote in grace
Promise kept through cross and grave
Over words of stone You spelled out love
And when You say it is done

Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say

All that I am with all creation
Hanging on every word that You've spoken
And it will not be shaken
Clinging for life to all Your promise
Hanging on every word that You say

Touch The Sky
What fortune lies beyond the stars
Those dazzling heights too vast to climb
I got so high to fall so far
But I found heaven as love swept low
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
What treasure waits within Your scars
This gift of freedom gold can't buy
I bought the world and sold my heart
You traded heaven to have me again
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out, I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
Find me here at Your feet again
Everything I am, reaching out I surrender
Come sweep me up in Your love again
And my soul will dance
On the wings of forever
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky
When my knees hit the ground
Those dazzling heights too vast to climb
I got so high to fall so far
But I found heaven as love swept low
My heart beating, my soul breathing
I found my life when I laid it down
Upward falling, spirit soaring
I touch the sky when my knees hit the ground
What treasure waits within Your scars
This gift of freedom gold can't buy

Street Called Mercy
Tired of endless walking
Not knowing which way to go
I collapsed on a street called mercy
I was found in You
Throwing Your arms around me
You held me like I was Yours
Like You'd been there the whole time waiting
I was found in You
Wrapped up in scarlet kindness
You welcomed this sinner home
Now I breathe in the air of heaven
All I want is You
Keep me within Your shadow
Lord tether my heart to Yours
I want nothing without Your presence
All I want is You
You are all I want
You are all I need
Every breath I take
Is a breath to say
I am Yours now forever
Not knowing which way to go
I collapsed on a street called mercy
I was found in You
Throwing Your arms around me
You held me like I was Yours
Like You'd been there the whole time waiting
I was found in You
Wrapped up in scarlet kindness
You welcomed this sinner home
Now I breathe in the air of heaven
All I want is You
Keep me within Your shadow
Lord tether my heart to Yours
I want nothing without Your presence
All I want is You
You are all I want
You are all I need
Every breath I take
Is a breath to say
I am Yours now forever

When I Lost My Heart To You (Hallelujah)
Love
Laid its breath against my chest
My skin was thick
But You breathed down all my walls
Love
Like the fire steals the cold
The ice wore thin
As Your light tore through my door
You have my heart
You have my heart
You have my heart oh God
You have my heart
Oh hallelujah
Hallelujah
Oh hallelujah
I found Your love
When I lost my heart to You
Love
Trading crowns to wear my shame
The Prince's throne for the cross that bore my thorns
Oh love
Like crashing waves of endless grace
You won't relent
Until all I am is Yours
Laid its breath against my chest
My skin was thick
But You breathed down all my walls
Love
Like the fire steals the cold
The ice wore thin
As Your light tore through my door
You have my heart
You have my heart
You have my heart oh God
You have my heart
Oh hallelujah
Hallelujah
Oh hallelujah
I found Your love
When I lost my heart to You
Love
Trading crowns to wear my shame
The Prince's throne for the cross that bore my thorns
Oh love
Like crashing waves of endless grace
You won't relent
Until all I am is Yours

Prince Of Peace
My heart a storm, clouds raging deep within
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sun, light piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
(Again and again)
Oh, be still my heart
I know that You are God
Oh fear no evil
For I know You are here
And my soul will know Your love surrounds me
When my thoughts wage war
When night screams terror
There Your voice will roar
Come death or shadow
God I know Your light will meet me there
And my soul will know
When fear comes knocking
There You'll be my guard
When day breeds trouble
There You'll hold my heart
Come storm or battle
God I know Your peace will meet me there
Oh, be still my heart
And my soul will ever know that You are God
And You heard my prayer
The Prince of peace came bursting through the wind
The violent sky held its breath
And in Your light I found rest
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You heard my prayer
Hope like the sun, light piercing through the dark
The Prince of peace came and broke into my heart
The violent cross, the empty grave
And in Your light I found grace
Tearing through the night
Riding on the storm
Staring down the fight
My eyes found Yours
Shining like the sun
Striding through my fear
The Prince of peace
Met me there
You're always there
And You hear my prayer
Your love surrounds me

Empires
We are worlds, we are bodies
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
We are shadows and portraits
Empires of light and clay
Images of our Maker
Sinners called out as saints
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken
The time has come
The wait is over
The King is here
And His Name is Jesus
This is love
Bending skies to heal the broken
This is love
Bleeding life into the grave
Hear the sound
As our hearts cry out forever
Singing hallelujah
Breathing in a brand new world
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name
No eye has seen
No ear has heard
No mind conceive
What heaven holds
But here and now
Let earth be found
With all our crowns
Upon Your Name
Empires of dirt and grace
Silhouettes and reflections
Caught in His holy flame
Beneath our skin
A new creation
The night is done
Our chains are broken

Rule
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out of fear
Let your name move the atmosphere
Love like the skies are wide
Crashing down to bring the world to life
Hope came dancing on an empty grave
Death has lost its rule to the King of grace
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out of fear
Let your name move the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
And we owe it all to Jesus
Sin and all the shame deleted
Death and all these chains defeated
And the light we see is Jesus
And the air we breathe is freedom
And the sound it knows no fear
Your love rules the atmosphere
Oh oh oh
Be the crown in the light and sound
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out of fear
Let your name move the atmosphere
Be the fire burning inside out
Be the love casting out of fear
Let your name move the atmosphere

Closer Than You Know
I tempered the storm
Though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept
And the night waged war
We stood in the fire
And we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine
That was made of Me
Don't turn your eyes from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
I carried that cross
And I felt your pain
I took up your crown
And I wore your shame
And death was a fire
And its teeth were grim
But I left it behind
Along with all your sin
Don't turn away from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely Come surely come
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And I won't forsake you
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Know I'll never leave you
So lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
And I'm closer than you know
And I'm closer than you know
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know You're with me here
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know that You are here
For I'm Yours and You are mine
And my soul knows well
You are here
You are here
And my soul will praise You
And my soul will praise Your Name
Singing Holy is Your Name
Jesus
Jesus
Though your faith was small
I prayed while you slept
And the night waged war
We stood in the fire
And we walked on sea
And we drank of the wine
That was made of Me
Don't turn your eyes from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
I carried that cross
And I felt your pain
I took up your crown
And I wore your shame
And death was a fire
And its teeth were grim
But I left it behind
Along with all your sin
Don't turn away from Me
For My love won't be undone
Don't hide your face from Me
For My light has surely come
Surely Come surely come
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And I won't forsake you
Lift up your eyes and see
Heaven is closer than you know
Know I'll never leave you
So lift up your voice and sing
Know that My love won't let you go
And My light has surely come
Surely come surely come
And I'm closer than you know
And I'm closer than you know
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know You're with me here
Lord I hear You I know You're there
Closer now than my skin and bones could dare
Breathing deep within me
You are always with me
I can see You where eyes can't stare
Brighter now than the sun could ever dare
Breathing all around me
God I know that You are here
For I'm Yours and You are mine
And my soul knows well
You are here
You are here
And my soul will praise You
And my soul will praise Your Name
Singing Holy is Your Name
Jesus
Jesus

Sunburst
You draw our hearts from the shadows
Towards Your horizon
Leaving the shade of the half light
To follow the Son
The city stirs in the twilight
In search of the morning
Street s finding life in the Sunburst
Of Your bright shining love
For the Light has come
And the night cannot understand it
As the world keeps spinning
This hope within us is rising
And like the rising sun
Wake up Your light in us
And we will shine like grace
As we call on Your Name
And when the day is done
This sound will carry on
Ti l the night folds over
In awe of our Saviour
Like mountains mirror the sunrise
Reflecting Your glory
Might we exhibit Your hope bright
Salvation in us
Towards Your horizon
Leaving the shade of the half light
To follow the Son
The city stirs in the twilight
In search of the morning
Street s finding life in the Sunburst
Of Your bright shining love
For the Light has come
And the night cannot understand it
As the world keeps spinning
This hope within us is rising
And like the rising sun
Wake up Your light in us
And we will shine like grace
As we call on Your Name
And when the day is done
This sound will carry on
Ti l the night folds over
In awe of our Saviour
Like mountains mirror the sunrise
Reflecting Your glory
Might we exhibit Your hope bright
Salvation in us
