LORD I LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH

Lord I lift Your name on high

Lord I love to sing Your praises

I’m so glad You’re in my life

I’m so glad You came to save us

 

You came from heaven to earth to show the way

From the earth to the cross, my debt to pay

From the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky

Lord I lift Your name on high

 

I LOVE TO PRAISE HIM

(I love to praise Him)

I love to praise His name

(I love to praise Him)

I love to praise His name

(I love to praise Him)

I love to praise His name

I love to praise His holy name.

 

He's my rock, my rock, my sword and shield,

He's my wheel in the middle of a wheel.

I know He'll never, never let me down;

He's just a jewel that I have found.

 

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I love to praise His name.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I love to praise His name.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I love to praise His name.

I love to praise His holy name.

 

I LOVE YOU LORD TODAY

I love you, I love you, I love you Lord today

Because you cared for me in such a special way

That’s why I praise you, I lift you up, and I magnify your name

That’s why my heart is filled with praise

 

My heart, my mind, my soul belongs to you

You paid the price for me way back on Calvary

That’s why I praise you, I lift you up, and I magnify your name

That’s why my heart is filled with praise

 

WE ARE NOT ASHAMED

We are not ashamed

Of the gospel of Jesus Christ

For it is God's power of salvation

It's to everyone - everyone that believes it

It's to everyone - everyone that receives it

We shall have everlasting life

 

We are not ashamed

We shall have everlasting life

 

God's word is a light unto my pathway

His word is a lamp unto my feet

God's word is a guaranteed to set you free

Set the captives free, live eternally

 

God's word is healing to every nation

His word is the power unto salvation

God's word came all the way from glory

Set the captives free, make the blind to see

We are not ashamed

Of the gospel of Jesus Christ

For we have everlasting life

 

WE ARE STANDING ON HOLY GROUND

We are standing on Holy ground

And I know that there are angels all around

Let us praise Jesus now

We are standing in His presence on Holy ground

 

NEVER COULD HAVE MADE IT

Sometimes I start to look back over my life

and I can see all the time You brought

Me out, me out, me out

 

Every now and then I start to look over my life

and I can see all the time You brought

Me out, me out, me out

 

Never could have made it without You

So glad to have You in my life

Never could have made it without You

So glad to have You in my life

 

So many dangers seen and unseen

Your grace has brought me through

My enemies were always around me

But I held steadfast to You

 

Time after time I could have fallen by the wayside

You gave me strength to keep holding on

The forces of Satan were out to get me

But You made them leave me alone

 

Through sickness, through pain

Through the storm, through the rain

All these things I had to endure

You were my comforter, you were my cure

 

And though it all seemed impossible

Lord You took my pain and frustration

Lord You've been, You've been a real friend

You stuck by me through thick and thin

 

Through all of my troubles - You brought me

Through my ups and downs - You brought me

You were the joy I found - You brought me

Lord You brought me out

 

Through my hardest times - You brought me

When I didn't have a dime - You brought me

You were a friend of mine - You brought me

Lord You brought me out

 

You brought me

You brought me

You brought me

Lord You brought me out
