The One and Only God
03:55

CHORUS
You are the one and only God
No one compares to who You are
You’re the first and You’re the last
You know the future from the past
You’re the Maker and Redeemer
Of our hearts
You are the one and only God
VERSE 1
You hold the nations In Your hands
Kingdoms rise at Your command
To bring You praise
No power on earth can move Your throne
And You desire to be known
As Lord of all the earth
You are Lord of all the earth
VERSE 2
Throughout the universe You’ve made
Your glory is displayed for all to see
But You have called us by Your name
So with the heavens we’d proclaim
Till all the world can hear
Until all the world can hear
|

2. |
Your Love Stands Firm
03:58
|
|||
|
CHORUS
Your love stands firm in the heavens
You loved us before time began
From age to age
You will show us Your love
You’ve engraved us upon Your hands
VERSE 1
Throughout eternity
We’ll marvel at Your love
Revealed in the Cross
Though we’ll never understand
Why You chose to pour
Such kindness on us
VERSE 2
Why did we come to know
The gospel of Your grace
Why did we come to hear
Why are we heirs with Christ
We should be condemned
Why did You bring us near
|
||||
3. |

|
VERSE 1
God did not call us
Because we were wise
Or gifted with riches and might
His chosen ones are
The weak in this world
Who hope in His all-saving name
That He might receive all the praise
CHORUS
So I will boast in the Cross of Christ
And I will glory in Jesus
And His sacrifice
I will boast in the Cross of Christ
It is the power
It is the wisdom of God
And my great ransom
The Cross of Christ
VERSE 2
Great is the mystery
Of God’s sovereign ways
That flow from the depths of His grace
That He would give up
His one precious Son
To bear all the cost of my sin
Is a wonder I can’t comprehend
|

All I Have
04:34
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
All I have is by Your mercy
And all I have is all of grace
All I am is what Your love
Has made of me
Now I am Your new creation
Your workmanship in Jesus Christ
Made to walk in works
You have prepared for me
CHORUS
I rejoice in all Your kindness
And I rejoice in all Your goodness
I rejoice in Your great love for me
VERSE 2
All I have is from You Father
The Author of each perfect gift
You gladly give me all things
To enjoy in You
You who did not spare Your Son
But freely gave Him for us all
Will You not with joy
Supply my every need

Draw Near to You
03:19
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
You say come you weary
And come you burdened
And I will give you rest
You say come you hungry
And come you thirsty
In Me you will be refreshed
CHORUS
And so I will draw near to You
I set my face to seek You Lord
Draw near to You
And You’ll draw near to me
Draw near to You
I set my heart to know You Lord
And You will draw near
You will draw near
You will draw near to me
VERSE 2
You say why spend money
And why go running
For things that leave you dry
You say come and feast
Upon Me Who fills
Every heart that is open wide
|

6. |
I Look Up
04:37
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
When I look all around me
And all I can see
Are my mountains of failure and sin
I will hope in the One
Crucified in my place
Jesus Christ the Redeemer of men
CHORUS
I look up to the Cross
Where I see my Sin-Bearer
Hanging there in deepest agony
I look up to the Cross
Where Your cleansing blood flows
And I feel a great weight lift from me
VERSE 2
When I’m standing accused
And I’m guilty as charged
And I’ve nothing that I can defend
I will trust in the righteousness
Given to me
By Jesus my Savior and Friend
VERSE 3
When I measure my heart
By Your holy decrees
All my motives and deeds I despise
I will claim all Your sacrifice
Purchased for me
By Your death I will stand justified

Depth of Mercy
05:01
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
Depth of mercy can there be
Mercy reaching even me
God the Just His wrath forbears
Me the chief of sinners spares
So many times my heart has strayed
From His kind and perfect ways
Making clear my desperate need
For His blood poured out for me
VERSE 2
Give me grace Lord let me own
All the wrongs that I have done
Let me now my sins deplore
Look to You and sin no more
There for me the Savior stands
Holding forth His wounded hands
Scars which ever cry for me
Once condemned but now set free
|
||||
8. |

|
VERSE 1
Before the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea
A great High Priest whose name is love
Who ever lives and pleads for me
My name is graven on His hands
My name is written on His heart
I know that while in heav’n He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart
No tongue can bid me thence depart
VERSE 2
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free
For God the Just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me
To look on Him and pardon me
VERSE 3
Behold Him there, the risen Lamb
My perfect, spotless Righteousness
The great unchangeable I AM
The King of glory and of grace
One with Himself, I cannot die
My soul is purchased by His blood
My life is hid with Christ on high
With Christ my Savior and my God
With Christ my Savior and my God
