You’re Creator of
All that exists,
You spoke ev’rything in six days.
Ev’ry heart leads false,
But You’ve forgiven us—
In only Your grace can we brag.
So when that ol’ serpent fires his darts,
We put trust in You, holy God!

Dance for the Lord!
You fliers in the sky,
You swimmers in the sea,
You walkers of the earth
Shout for the Lord!
Declare His wonders,
You armies of Heaven
Raise your swords,
Spread your wings,
And shine His light!
Shout, shout, shout His praise!
Whom should be praised?
Our Father in Heaven!
Whom must we raise?
Jesus the Christ!
Who gets the glory?
Holy Spirit, it’s His story!
It’s a beautiful day
We will shout His name
It’s a beautiful day
We will sing His praise
It’s a beautiful day
By His grace I’m saved
It’s a beautiful day
Look what the Lord has made!
He called to the stars: "Be!"
Placed each with precision,
Set them all in motion:
A master's keen vision
The stars tell His story
From beginning to end:
From creation to Christ,
And that He'll come again
Lighting the night, the stars
Also light my life's path;
Jesus, Lord of my heart:
A clocksmith, plying His craft
Showed the truth, shed Your blood;
Lord, Your love is what I need;
I submit to Your good lead;
I will do anything:
Lord, You need only ask
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And You'll hold me tight,
Jesus, all through my life;
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And I will not let go
'Til You bless my soul
God, You're good, this I know;
Where You plant, I will grow;
I'll just keep my eyes on You;
Lord, I am ready;
Yours is a glorious light
Born in likeness of men,
You came to bear all my sin;
Jesus, You are amazing!
Lord, whatever You ask me You know
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And You'll hold me tight,
Jesus, all through my life;
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And I will not let go
'Til You bless my soul
Jesus, Your life is my life,
So I can serve You right;
In You I live, move, and am;
Anything that You ask;
You're the King of kings and Lord of lords!
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And You'll hold me tight,
Jesus, all through my life;
I will worship You
Like You want me to,
And I will not let go
'Til You bless my soul

You were
Meek
Humble
Loving
Selfless
Giving
Holy
Worthy of life
But you took mine
And gave me yours
I have nothing to offer,
Not even excuses;
You have everything I need,
Yes, even forgiveness
The sun thro' window shining,
Shadows on the wall dancing,
A cat on pillow, taking a nap
The Son, His glory shining;
The cross, all my sins lancing;
A man, bended knees, totally enrapt
Your Word is good food
for the malnourished soul;
It is sustaining,
It is fulfilling,
It is encouraging,
It is truth
It is the written Word
which reveals the Living Word--
by Whom things nonexistent
suddenly were:
Light and sky,
Earth and stars,
Land and sea,
Fish, birds,
Animals
and me
Your Word is good food
for the malnourished soul;
A little here,
A little there,
A little sweet,
A little meat,
A little taste-and-see;
Mm-hmm...
You are good
