Then I See You (Work in Progress)

V.1

Getting’ so tired of climbing, need a bit of rest

I am soul-bone/done in and weary; always tryin’ my best

Wondrin’ when this struggle’s ever gonna end

Then I look up and reach out for Your hand

Chorus: 

(Cuz) When I see You, my troubles start to fade 6 7 1 1, 6 2 1 7 6 4

When I see You, I recall the price You paid (?) 5 6 7 7, 5 3 2 1 7 6 1

You never leave me, You never fail 6 7-6 1 4, 6 7-6 6

Let me see You 6 7 1 6

v.2 

Feel like such a square peg, that never seems to fit

Remind me You accept me, so I know I’m legit (?)

Then You tell me that You love me and

I get my second wind; I’m gonna make it!

  Bridge:

I quietly remove myself

From the hustle and the noise

I sit alone and read Your Word  

While You fill me with joy

Father Knows Best

10-15-13

You’ve been wrestling with your questions for so long

And I wait while you just keep on keeping on

There’s so much that I would love to do for you

Open your heart’s door… and  let…Me…through

  Chorus:

Let Me swallow your doubts with My love

Can’t the fact that I love you be enough

Won’t you lay your head upon my lap and rest

(And accept the fact that Your) Father knows best

Verse 2: 

I agree with you that Hell’s a cruel place

No one goes there if they’re covered in My grace

I died so that won’t be their destiny

And My heart breaks when they turn their backs to Me

  Bridge:

  There are things that just won’t fit in little boxes

Things that you won’t ever understand

But I’ve shown you all you need to know to know Me

And to know Me is the main part of My plan

Choose to Forgive

Work in Progress

Verse 1:

Whenever I’ve been hurt, been given a raw deal,

I choose to forgive, choose to forgive

I give it to the Lord, don’t matter how I feel

I choose to forgive, choose to forgive

  Chorus:

Choose to forgive, we’ve been forgiven much

Choose to forgive, how dare we hold a grudge

Choose to forgive, that's how we get set free

Choosing to forgive brings joy and peace and harmony!

  Verse2:

It doesn’t matter who, it doesn’t matter when

Cuz I choose to forgive, choose to forgive

You help me get back up, and dust me off again,

I choose to forgive, choose to forgive

  Bridge:

It may take some time

for that wound to heal

Just put it all behind

And keep on being real

Lord, We Thank You

Verse 1:

You are high and far above us

Yet Your Spirit brings You near

Though we’re sinners, You still love us.

And Your love casts out our fear.

  Chorus:

Lord, we thank You for Your Spirit

And for grace that You’ve bestowed

Yes, we thank You for Your Spirit

That brings Your presence close

Verse 2:

Covered in the blood of Jesus

We come running to Your throne

We’re receivers of forgiveness

And the great love You have shown

  Bridge: We can’t wait till we cross over

In Your presence evermore!

Nothing hindering, all is glimmering,

Oh, what treasures lie in store!
