IN CHRIST ALONE:

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
Til 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, 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
Sins curse has lost its 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 a lifes first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Could ever pluck me from His hand
Til He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I stand
I will stand, I will stand
All other ground is sinking sand
All other ground, all other ground
Is sinking sand, is sinking sand
So I stand

They want sacrifice
They had schemes and asked me to follow their path to the afterlife
I've got an appetite
For nice things and pipe dreams
And my enemies could be blastified
New metaphors
Views that are better for
You can't survive if I'm your competitor
Rise together or fight separate wars
I pray I'm never forced to be a predator

Better to spectate we won't last
They glad to hate when gladiators breath their last
Scream on mass when the dreams do clash
Like swords in the war , let me bleed on that
But they feed on that , so we need strong backs
Call us weakened or redeemed contracts
But the speech wont last when the beast attacks
The sons and the fathers will be free at last

This is love , It's not treason
This is love , It's not treason
This is love , It's not treason
This is love , It's not treason
This is LOVE

We'd rather make our children,
Martyrs than murderers.
We'd rather make our children,
White flag warriors.

HOW GREAT THOU ART!

Oh Lord my God
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds
Thy hands have made

I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout
The universe displayed

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art
How great thou art

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

And when I think of God
His son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in

That on the cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died
To take away my sin

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great thou art
How great thou art

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

When Christ shall come
With shouts of acclamation
And lead me home
What joy shall fill my heart

Then I shall bow
With humble adoration
And then proclaim My God
How great Thou art

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

Then sings my soul
My Savior, God, to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art

How great Thou art
How great Thou art

Dry your eyes
I see you
Come inside the doorway
Don't you hide, My child
Place your hand in Mine

I know, I know you
I know you know I love you
I know, I know you
My grace invites you
Home

Life nor death will keep you
You don't have to fear
Nothing comes between us
In the end you're Mine
You'll be just fine
You're Mine
In the end you're Mine

I know, I know you
I know you know I love you
I know, I know you
(You know me, yes, You know me)
My grace invites you
(Your grace, it invites me)

"the wondrous cross on which the Prince of Glory died"

"And can it be that I should gain an interest in the Savior's blood"

"heir of salvation, purchase of God, born of his Spirit, washed in his blood"

"I know not why this wondrous grace to me he has made known,
Or why unworthy, Christ in love, redeemed me for his own."

This song always makes my heart tingle...

(For The Greater Good of God)


Are you a man of peace
Or a man of holy war?
Too many sides to you
Dont know which anymore
So many full of life
But also filled with pain
Dont know just how many
Will live to breathe again

A life thats made to breath
Destruction or defense
A mind thats vain, corruption
Bad or good intent
A wolf in sheeps clothing
Or saintly or sinner
Or some that would believe
A holy war winner

They fire off many shots
And many parting blows
Their actions beyond a reasoning
Only God would know
And as He lies in Heaven
Or it could be in Hell
I feel he's somewhere here
Or looking from below
But I dont know, I dont know

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

More pain and misery
In the history of mankind
Sometimes it seems more like
The blind leading the blind
It brings upon us more
A famine, death and war
You know religion has
A lot to answer for

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

And as they search to find
The bodies in the sand
They find its ashes that are
Scattered across the land
And as the spirits seem
To whistle on the wind
A shot is fired somewhere
Another war begins

And all because of it
Youd think that we would learn
But still the body count
The city fires burn
Somewhere there's someone dying
In a foreign land
Meanwhile the world is crying
Stupidity of man
Tell me why, tell me why

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

Please tell me now what life is
Please tell me now what love is
Well, tell me now what war is
Again, tell me what life is

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God
For the greater good of God

He gave his life for us
He fell upon the Cross
To die for all of those
Who never mourn His loss
It wasn't meant for us
To feel the pain again
Tell me why, tell me why

I would choose either "In Christ alone" or "Amazing Grace" as the most beautiful lyrics that come to mind :).

the wondrous cross on which the Prince of Glory died

See his head, his hands, his feet,
sorrow and love flow mingled down.
Did e're such love and sorrow meet,
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
