Refrein

To the river I am going
Bringing sins I cannot bear
Come and cleanse me, come forgive me
Lord I need to meet you there

In these waters, healing mercy
Flows with freedom from despair
I am going, to that river
Lord I need to meet you there

Precious Jesus, I am ready
To surrender every care
Take my hand now, lead me closer
Lord I need to meet you there

Come and join us, in the river
Come find life beyond compare
He is calling, He is waiting
Jesus longs to meet you there

The River Is Here

Down the mountain the river flows
And it brings refreshing wherever it goes
Through the valleys and over the fields
The river is rushing and the river is here

The river of God sets our feet a-dancing
The river of God fills our hearts with cheer
The river of God fills our mouths with laughter
And we rejoice for the river is here

The river of God is teeming with life
And all who touch it can be revived
And those who linger on this river?s shore
Will come back thirsting for more of the Lord

Up to the mountain we love to go
To find the presence of the Lord
Along the banks of the river we run
We dance with laughter giving praise to the Son

I Love to Worship

Lord I know I shouldn’t be coming back, coming back so soon
But I’m tired of all this running, that’s why I’m coming home to you
Please tell me I’m still your child, and that you love me still
Even though I may have failed sometimes, I never lost sight of your will

That is why, I love you Lord
And I worship and adore you
I give all praises to you
So come on and use me Lord
Yeah Lord your love is in control

The pressures of this life, seem to somehow way me down
But I cannot forget how you delivered me, each and every time
So I submit my life to you, forever and always
Cause I know what you have prepared for me, I want to give you praise

I love you Lord, And I worship you Lord (worship and adore you)
I give you all the praise and Honor, (give all praises to you)
So come on and use me Lord, your love is in control

I love you Lord (I love you Lord)
And I worship and adore you (I worship and adore you)
(I’m so glad you love me yea) I give all praises to you
So come on and use me Lord
(Please Lord) your love is in control

I love you Lord (I love you Lord) yes I do
Oh Lord (I worship and adore you)
Worship and adore you Lord (I give all praises to you)
(So come on and use me Lord), Please Lord (your love is in control)

Well I may not be the greatest man to walk this earth
But I know who is
And I may not amount to what you think is much
But I already do to Him
While people keep searching for answers
Looking for a light in the dark
I'm standing with the answer
Cause He is living in my heart

In Christ I can do all things
In Christ I mount up on eagle's wings
In Christ I wait for a great reward
That I have in store
In Christ I have His righteousness
In Christ I have what I confess
In Christ I don't worry about all the rest
Cause everything I need to be is in Christ

Well you might think that I'm sounding all too prideful
But let me tell you something true
The very one who lives inside of me right now
Wants to live inside of you
Instead of searching any longer
You can have peace today
You can take hold of the answer
Then you'll be able to say

In Him we live and move
And in Him we have our being
As we all live in Him
Together we can sing

 

link:   Oh To See The Dawn (The Power Of The Cross)

Oh, to see the dawn
Of the darkest day:
Christ on the road to Calvary.
Tried by sinful men,
Torn and beaten, then
Nailed to a cross of wood.

CHORUS:
This, the pow'r of the cross:
Christ became sin for us;
Took the blame, bore the wrath—
We stand forgiven at the cross.

Oh, to see the pain
Written on Your face,
Bearing the awesome weight of sin.
Ev'ry bitter thought,
Ev'ry evil deed
Crowning Your bloodstained brow.

Now the daylight flees;
Now the ground beneath
Quakes as its Maker bows His head.
Curtain torn in two,
Dead are raised to life;
"Finished!" the vict'ry cry.

Oh, to see my name
Written in the wounds,
For through Your suffering I am free.
Death is crushed to death;
Life is mine to live,
Won through Your selfless love.

FINAL CHORUS:
This, the pow'r of the cross:
Son of God—slain for us.
What a love! What a cost!
We stand forgiven at the cross.

"The Power of the Cross"

Take us to the river
Take us there in unity
To sing a song of Your salvation
To win this generation for our King
A song of Your forgiveness
For it is with grace
That river flows
Take us to the river
In the city of our God

Take us to the throne room
And give us ears
To hear the cry of Heaven
For that cry is mercy
Mercy to the fallen sons of men
Mercy it has triumphed
Triumphed over judgement
By Your blood
Take us to the throne room
In the city of our God

The Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord
The Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord

Take us to the mountain
Lift us in the shadow of Your hand
Is this Your mighty angel
Who stands astride the ocean and the land
In His hand Your mercy showers
O'er a dry and barren place
Take us to the mountain
In the city of our God

For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord
For the Spirit of the sovereign Lord is upon us
This is the year of the Lord

Take us to the river
In the city of our God

1
I could live life alone
And never fill the longings of my heart
The healing warmth of someone's arms
And I could live without dreams
And never know the thrill of what could be
With every star so far and out of reach
I could live without many things
And I could carry on, but

Chorus:
I couldn't face my life tomorrow
Without Your hope in my heart I know
I can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
Without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all I do
I can't live a day without You

2
I could travel the world
See all the wonders beautiful and new
They'd only make me think of You
And I could have all life offers
Riches that were far beyond compare
To grant my every wish without a care
Oh, I could do anything, oh yes
But if You weren't in it all

Bridge:
Jesus, I live because You live
You're like the air I breathe
Oh Jesus, oh, I have because You give
You're everything to me

Tomorrow morning if you wake up
and the sun does not appear
I will be here
If in the dark, we lose sight of love
Hold my hand, and have no fear
'Cause I will be here


I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
I will be here

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I will be here
Just as sure as seasons were made for change
Our lifetimes were made for these years
So I will be here


I will be here
And you can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here


I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me


Tomorrow morning, if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I will be here
Oh, I will be here.


~ Steven Curtis Chapman ~

Great are You, Lord
Mighty in strength
You are faithful
You will ever be

We will praise You
All of our days
It's for Your glory
We offer everything

Raise your hands, all you nations
Shout to God all creation
How awesome is the Lord most high

Where You send us
God, we will go
You're the answer
We want the world to know

We will trust You
When You call our name
Where You lead us
We'll follow all the way

We will praise You together
For now and forever
How awesome is the Lord most high

Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
How awesome is the Lord most high

Soon and very soon
We're going to see the King
Soon and very soon
We're going to see the King
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We are going to see the King

No more crying there
We're going to see the King
No more crying there
We're going to see the King
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We are going to see the King

No more dying there
We're going to see the King
No more dying there
We're going to see the King
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
We are going to see the King


Words - Andrae Crouch, 1976

   

Isaiah 1:18

      “ Come now, and let us reason together,”
      Says the LORD,

      “ Though your sins are like scarlet,
      They shall be as white as snow;
      Though they are red like crimson,
      They shall be as wool.

   

 

Isaiah 53:5-7

      But He was wounded for our transgressions,
      He was bruised for our iniquities;
      The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
      And by His stripes we are healed. 
      

     All we like sheep have gone astray;
      We have turned, every one, to his own way;
      And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. 
      

      He was oppressed and He was afflicted,
      Yet He opened not His mouth;
      He was led as a lamb to the slaughter,
      And as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
      So He opened not His mouth.

 

 

...and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son
cleanseth us from all sin. - 1 John 1:7b

 

In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: - Colossians 1:14

Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool. - Isaiah 1:18

 

 

Song: The blood will never lose its power - Andraé Crouch

 

The blood that Jesus shed for me way back on Calvary,
The blood that gives me strength from day to day,
It will never loose its power

Refrain: It reaches to the highest mountain;
It flows to the lowest valley
the blood that gives me strength from day to day
It will never loose its power

It soothes my doubt and calms my fears,
and it dries all my tears;
The Blood that gives me strength from day to day
it will never loose its power.

 

 

Praise Him you heavens and all that’s above
Praise Him you angels and heavenly hosts
Let the whole earth praise Him

Praise Him the sun moon and bright shining stars
Praise Him you heavens and waters and skies
Let the whole earth praise Him

Chorus:
Great in power, great in glory
Great in mercy, King of heaven
Great in battle, great in wonder
Great in Zion, King over all the earth

 

Psalm 150

Let All Things Praise the LORD

 1 Praise the LORD!
         
         Praise God in His sanctuary;
         Praise Him in His mighty firmament!
         
 2 Praise Him for His mighty acts;
         Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
         
 3 Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet;
         Praise Him with the lute and harp!
 4 Praise Him with the timbrel and dance;
         Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
 5 Praise Him with loud cymbals;
         Praise Him with clashing cymbals!
         
 6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
         
         Praise the LORD!  

 

Before the day
Before the light
Before the world revolved around the sun
God on high
Stepped down into time
And wrote the story of His love for everyone

He has filled our hearts with wonder
So that we always remember

You and I were made to worship
You and I are called to love
You and I are forgiven and free
You and I embrace surrender
You and I choose to believe
You and I will see who we were meant to be

All we are
And all we have
Is all a gift from God that we receive
Brought to life
We open up our eyes
To see the majesty and glory of the King

He has filled our hearts with wonder
So that we always remember

You and I were made to worship
You and I are called to love
You and I are forgiven and free
You and I embrace surrender
You and I choose to believe
You and I will see who we were meant to be

And even the rocks cry out
And even the Heavens shout
At the sound of His holy name
So let every voice sing out
And let every knee bow down
He is worthy of all our praise

You and I were made to worship
You and I are called to love
You and I are forgiven and free, yeah
You and I embrace surrender
You and I choose to believe
You and I will see, you and I will see
