Write them on the tablets of my heart
make me firm in my strides
Your Word of Truth oh Lord is mine
To hold and keep before my eyes

Your Truth oh Lord is my defence
Your Words dear Christ my dependence
I have nothing else to hold on to, yeah
And I will have it no other way

Even if I don’t see the light of day
In the manner I thought it would be
My submission to Your Truth will stay
‘Cos Right here right now I’m free

Your Truth is my constant display
For me and mine to see and say
The banner to always guide our way
Through daily walk to eternal destiny

Your Truth will mark my borders
Within these walls I will keep under
Feelings and thoughts that try to wander
to vain visions that go nowhere

We’ll be still and wait right here LORD
Behind Your banner and shield of your WORD
Some laugh and say we’re in prison with a guard
But this palace is safety in God

For where The LORD is there is freedom
Everything will bow to Your wisdom
When the Word of Truth is found in me
I’m unleashed to boundless victory

For I will know the Truth indeed
The Truth makes me free indeed
So this banner of TRUTH will always be
My label my guide and guard for life.

Goodness and mercy shall follow me
All of the days of my life
I dwell in the secret place of Most High
God is the keeper of my life

Christ, Christ
Christ is the source of my life
(Repeat)

Goodness and mercy shall follow you
All of the days of your life
You dwell in the secret place of Most High
God is the keeper of your life

Christ, Christ
Christ is the source of your life
(Repeat)

Nothing else, no one else
But Christ He’s your strength and your life
(Repeat)

Don’t let go of your confidence
It has great recompense
Don’t let stories and tales
Get your mind be shaken
Don’t let go of your confidence
Christ cannot be broken
God is Your keeper, Christ your stand

Verse1
The heavens belong to God
The earth He’s given to humans
To get His goodness through to all
He needs a call from me and you

Chorus
So when the Spirit comes knocking
Don’t be napping get praying
Get on the roll and take the call
Don’t drop the prayer ball

Verse 2
The LORD is looking for access
Into our human spaces
The Spirit looking for partners
To pray To save and heal the land
A brother and sister’s success
Waiting on you to happen
A nation starved may just be waiting
For you o prophet to pray and bring the rain

Chorus
When the Spirit comes knocking
Don’t be napping get praying
Get on the roll and take the call
Don’t drop the prayer ball

Bridge
Don’t drop the prayer ball
Answer the Spirit’s call
When the burden to pray gets to you again
Take it touchdown across the line

V1
Jesus I bow to You
You’re the ONE who made me free
And calling me a child of Heaven
You The Son of God You paid
To be The WAY for me and said
I’d be a son of God, a child of Heaven
So I say

Chorus
Let Your will be done (3x)
On earth as in Heaven

V2
Father I come to you
I present today this body
You saved me so have Your way
Take my mouth and let it pray
Pray your will on earth today
Holy Spirit use my lips in prayer

Bridge
This is why we pray in other tongues
As the Holy Spirit gives us utterance
That will of God be prayed on earth today
From the Father’s heart in glory, glory now

I’m thankful for this year gone by
We have lived and shall not die
Thankful in the low and high
For these and more we thank you LORD

Thankful for the joy of giving
And for the pleasure of receiving
For Grace to keep believing
For these and more we thank you LORD

Thankful for your enduring call
And for gifts You don’t recall
And Your faithfulness through it all
For these and more we thank you LORD

Thankful for You for Emmanuel
God with us, so all is well
Christ in me; it’s definitely well
For this and more we than you LORD

Thankful for giving us meaning
And a purpose for living
Jesus our seasons and reason
We have come to thank you LORD

I have come with gratitude
nothing more but gratitude
I’m thankful, I truly I am
I am here to thank you LORD

We searched and looked
we looked for HIM
to know our source
from where we’ve come
into this place
into this time
and built up alters
to the unknown

Emmanuel
God has come
Emmanuel
Our search is done
The ONE unknown
is now been shown
Emmanuel
God has come

Now we are born
to a world brand new
We will explore
This light that’s TRUE
No longer lost
no longer cursed
we worship on the alter
Where God is known

Emmanuel
God has come
Emmanuel
Our search is done
The ONE unknown
is now been shown
Emmanuel
God has come

This is the birth
we celebrate
God born in human flesh
to close the gap
We who were far
can now be near
and look on HIM
who was unknown

O wanderer
your search is done
Come to Jesus
The Christ, God’s SON
and let Your soul
find rest in HIM
HE is the ONE
Emmanuel

How can I thank you enough
For the many things you have done?
How can I thank you enough
For your tender mercies shown

Though I’m tempted at times
To drown in complaint
Open my eyes
To see again
That You’ve only been good
Always been good
Come around and thank You more

How can I praise You enough
For the wonderful things You have done?
How can I praise You enough
For the marvellous works you have done

I’m tempted at times
To drown in complaint
Open my eyes
To see again
That You’ve only been good
Always been good
Come around and praise You more.
(2nd time) Come around and thank You more

If I had ten thousand tongues
It still wouldn’t be enough
To sing the praise you deserve
Everything Lord I lay down to serve.

Though I’m tempted at times
To drown in complaint
Open my eyes
To see again
That You’ve only been good
Always been good
Come around and thank You more
Jesus I thank You more
My Father I thank You more

Tired and weary
Oh what a journey
lay my head to rest
it hasn’t been the best
But I remember
Yes I remember
That God is right here

So I will
Raise an alter
Raise an alter
Raise an alter to The Lord most high
Raise an alter
right here in this place
Raise and alter of praise onto my God

Made a move
took a step
it has proved
to get me ahead
I am where I need to be
Everything has turned out right
Not by my might but by the presence of The Lord

I will
Raise an alter
Raise an alter
Raise an alter to The Lord most high
Raise an alter
right here in this place
Raise and alter of praise onto my God

Anywhere anytime
Where the presence of God is revealed
An alter is raised unto HIM
Make it known that The LORD is here
I heard, I believe and I know He is always with me
So I will worship The LORD always
Never stop to give God praise

We will
Raise an alter
Raise an alter
Raise an alter to The Lord most high
Raise an alter
right here in this place
Raise and alter of praise onto my God

Verse 1
Turn a new leaf
It’s been a time of grief
But a new day is dawning
It is a new beginning
The Word of Salvation
In this proclamation
The herald of heaven gave
From GOD who saves

Chorus
The Word of salvation
Has come to you
Heaven’s proclamation
By God’s is true
Salvation He gives
Because He is God who saves

Verse 2
Your strength is failing
Feels like Hope is fading
Starting to fall now
But hear the Lord’s call now
He’s reaching out for you
Grab His hand to pull you
He gives amazing grace
He is God who saves

Chorus
The Word of salvation
Has come to you
Heaven’s proclamation
By God’s is true
Salvation He gives
Because He is God who saves

Verse3
Don’t lose hope just yet
Don’t give up at all
There’s power available
When on Jesus name you call
it’s not by your strength
You’ve got to believe
There is mighty mighty power
from Him; GOD who Saves.
