Songs

Yesterday I mentioned our worship leader Matt and his song "The Light and the Sea". AS I have been listening to his songs, most have struck a chord within me. I am just blown away by having him on our team. I want to share the lyrics to two other songs that have spoken to me.

The first is called "A simple prayer (surrender)"

Verse 1
I bring a simple prayer
Before the throne
Of You my King
Restore my heart, recover all
I've squandered on useless things
My Vision, My Love, My Savior
My freedom is in Your grace
Meet with me
Here in this secret place

Chorus 1
Angels bow at the Name above all names
You're calling me out
I will obey
I'm letting go
This is all I have to give
Surrender

Verse 2
Surrounded by the sound
Of songs lifting up Your Name
I'm taking up my cross
On Yours, You took my sin and shame
My Vision, My Love, My Savior
My freedom is in Your grace
Meet with me
Here in this secret place

Chorus 2
Angels bow at the Name above all names
You're calling me out
I will obey
I'm letting go
This is all I have to give
Surrender
Surrender
It's all I have to give
Surrender, surrender


The second is a song called "Conversation"

(Verse 1)
Hello again
Sometimes it feels like You fade away
But if I’m honest
I know it’s I who have strayed

(Prechorus 1)
Rescue me from these wants
I’m fumbling for a change
You’re here all around me
And I lift up You Name

(Chorus)
I want answers to these questions
But You want conversation
Just to be still before You
Abide here beside You
And talk and listen
I want answers to these questions
But You want conversation
Teach me the art
Of being quiet, and Lord
I’ll lose myself in You

(Verse 2)
Hello again
I’m restored and protected
In Your haven of grace
I surrender these fears
Lord, holy is Your name

(Prechorus 2)
Rescue me from these wants
I’m fumbling for a change
You’re dwelling within me
And I give You all my praise
