VERSE 1
Reaches of heaven, starry heights
Lights of the evening dancing in silent skies
Brilliance of morning, breaking day
O let them praise Him, praise His name
CHORUS
O praise His name, O praise His name
Let all His wondrous works declare His praise
VERSE 2
Mightiest mountains, peaceful plains
Snowfall and fire, thundering ocean waves
Kings and their kingdoms, age to age
O let them praise Him, praise His name
BRIDGE
King enthroned in majesty, all things made by His decree
Hear creation’s melody, “Praise Him! Praise Him!”
Everything with life and breath, everywhere from east to west
Every heart raised from the dead, praise Him, praise Him
Angels echo the refrain, “Jesus, Lamb for sinners slain!”
Name above all other names, praise Him

VERSE 1
Jesus the shepherd of my soul, all of my needs supplies
By living waters gives me rest, keeping me by His side
Bringing my wandering spirit back when I forsake His ways
Leading me for His mercy’s sake in paths of truth and grace
VERSE 2
Jesus the shepherd of my soul when in the valley deep
Death like a shadow hides my way, still You are leading me
I will not fear the darkest hour, faithful You will remain
Comforting with Your rod and staff, driving my fears away
VERSE 3
Jesus the shepherd of my soul, keeping me from all harm
Ever until He leads me home, safely into His arms
When I behold Him face to face, then I will look and see
Goodness and mercy from His hand surely have followed me
TAG
When I behold Him face to face, then I will look and see
Goodness and mercy from His hand surely have followed me

VERSE 1
Once in the wilderness of our sin
We wandered lost and without hope
Into our desert waste God in grace
Came to restore and bring us home
Let the redeemed of God rise up and sing
CHORUS
We give thanks, O God, for Your steadfast love
We give thanks, O God, for You are good
Lord, You are good, we give thanks
VERSE 2
Through every pain and trial, You provide
Light in the dark of our distress
Lifting us from on high when we cry
Turning our grief to gratefulness
Let the redeemed of God rise up and sing
BRIDGE
You take the darkness and make it as light
Hearts that were dead in sin, You raise to life
You take a barren place and make it a spring
Let the redeemed of God rise up and sing
Let the redeemed of God rise up and sing!

Should mountains melt into the roaring oceans
The earth give way or heaven’s lights grow cold
O mighty God, You are my strong defender

When all I see are enemies before me
When unbelief and doubt have taken hold
O Lord of hosts, You promise to defeat them

You’re sovereign over all
For You are good and always near
I’ll rest in You alone

Though all around the wicked seem to prosper
They mock Your name and rise against Your throne
O righteous Judge, their deeds You will remember
Be still, be still, my soul

You’re sovereign over all
For You are good and always near
I’ll rest in You alone
For You are God, I need not fear

I’ll rest in You alone
Be still, my soul

Though wars erupt, You will not leave us orphans
Though nations rage, You guard us as Your own

VERSE 1
O Lord, our God, to You we come
Will You still hide Your face?
We cry before You and on our knees we pray
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 2
Our sorrows leave us weak and worn
Surrounded by our fears
We look to heaven through feeble faith and tears
How long, O Lord, how long?
CHORUS
Till Your glory fills our eyes
And our faith is turned to sight
Till our thirsty souls are satisfied
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 3
Our foes and enemies rejoice
Injustice seems to reign
Lord, we are shaken and we are losing strength
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 4
But we will trust Your steadfast love
Your grace will be our song
You bring new mercies with ev’ry rising sun
How long, O Lord, how long?

VERSE 1
God brought out His people with a strong and mighty hand
Took them out of slavery to behold the Promised Land
Mountains fled before them and the seas turned back and ran
And they saw that He was good
CHORUS 1
God is faithful to His promise
He is with us, He is with us
God is faithful, God is faithful to His own
VERSE 2
God has come to free us from the bondage of our sin
Tasting of His kindness we cannot go back again
Leads us through the desert to the rivers of His grace
Working all things for our good
VERSE 3
We have known Your mercy and Your love as in the past
If days be few or many You will guide us to the last
You have said it, we believe it, every promise holding fast
For we know that You are good
CHORUS 2
God is faithful to His promise
He is with us, He is with us
God is faithful, God is faithful to His own
You are faithful to Your promise, You are with us, You are with us
You are faithful, You are faithful to Your own

For centuries, the church has gathered to sing God's Word back to him, especially the Psalms. That's because the Psalms teach us that neither dark despair nor jubilant celebration is out of place when God's people approach him. Through the Psalms we learn to tremble before God's majestic holiness even as his steadfast love invites us to draw nearer. In every situation he is our refuge, shield, comfort, deliverer, and king. And now, Jesus Christ has enabled us to sing the Psalms with a faith and joy that only the fully forgiven can experience. We pray these songs we've written from the Psalms would lead you to gladly say with the Psalmist, "Those who fear you shall see me and rejoice, because I have hoped in your word" (Psalm 119:74).
