SINCE I LAID MY BURDENS DOWN
Glory, glory, Hallelujah!
Since I laid my burdens down
Glory, glory, Hallelujah!
Since I laid my burdens down
Friends don’t treat me like they used to
Since I laid my burdens down
Friends don’t treat me like they used to
Since I laid my burdens down
I feel better, so much better
Since I laid my burdens down
I feel better, so much better
Since I laid my burdens down
GREAT IS YOUR MERCY
Great is Your mercy towards me
Your love and kindness towards me
Your tender mercy, I see
Day after day
Forever faithful towards me
Always providing for me
Great is Your mercy towards me
Great is Your grace
THE GOODNESS OF GOD
I love You, Lord for Your mercy never fails me
All my days I've been held in Your hand
From the moment that I wake up until I lay my head
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
I love Your voice; You have led me through the fire
In darkest night You are close like no other
I've known You as a father, I've known You as a friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God
'Cause all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
With my life laid down, I surrender now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running after, it's running after me
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
I'm gonna sing
And all my life You have been faithful
And all my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I'm gonna sing of the goodness of God
I will sing of the goodness of God.
I will sing of the goodness of God.
LORD PREPARE ME

Pure and holy, tried and true
With thanksgving, I'll be a living
Sanctuary for You
HE'S ABLE
Exceedingly, abundantly, above all you could ask or think
According to the power that works in you
God is able to do just what He said He would do
He's gonna fulfill every promise for you
Don't give up on God, 'cause He won't give up on you
He's able!
He's able!
Whoa - oh - oh - oh - He's able!
