The Preeminence
(Colossians 1:13-18)
Every throne or dominion
Every power, created for You
All the earth, all creation
And heavens, created for You
Chorus:
Great are Your works, O Lord
Creator of heaven and the earth
You were before all things
In You all things consist
That You may have the preeminence
Through Your blood, we have redemption
Freed from darkness, created for You
You are the head, we are Your body
You’re the firstborn, now we’re raised with You
Bridge:
Through You all things are
Lord You made my heart
You may have it all
Through You all things made
Every life You create
You are all in all

So Willingly as This
(1 Chron 29:1-17; 1 Cor 4:7)
Blessed are You, Lord God, my Father
I give You what is Yours
Yours is the greatness, the power and majesty
All that is in heaven and in earth is Yours, forever
Yours is the Kingdom; You are exalted over all
Chorus:
I thank You
And praise Your glorious name
Who am I, and who are we
To offer up so willingly as this
For all things come from You
And of Your own we’ve given
We give it back to You
So willingly as this
You prepared for me a body
You gave me life and breath
What do I have Lord, that I did not receive?
I use this breath to sing praise for Your mercy and for Your grace
I give my life, Lord, as a living sacrifice

All Things New
(Rev 21:5-7; Ezekiel 36:26-27)
I was a blind man, here without hope in the world
With empty ambitions, then You spoke Your word
I was dead but You gave me new life
I was so dark but You filled me with light
Chorus:
Lord You make all things new
And these words are faithful and true
My heart was a stone but You made it new flesh
You took these dry bones and You gave me Your breath
Lord You make all things new
The presence of Jesus, now is dwelling within
You’re the fountain of life, I’ll never thirst again
You disarmed all my foes and You said it is done
The old things are gone and the new has begun
Bridge:
You’re the Alpha, the Omega, the beginning and the end
Come all who are thirsty, and never thirst again
The one who overcomes, they shall be called Your son
You’re the Alpha, the Omega, You’re my inheritance

Living Sacrifice
(Luke 9:23, 62; Gal 6:14; Ps 118:27; Rom 12:1; Heb 12:1)
I take my cross and follow you
Forsake my life in this world
Through the cross, the world is dead to me and I am dead to the world
chorus:
Bind me to the horns of Your altar, O Lord
I’ll be a living sacrifice
I lay down everything that hinders
And cry out for a brand new heart
I put my hand to the plow
I never will look back
Remove the stones from this well
And let the living waters flow

Hymn of Faith
(Habakkuk 3:17-19)
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
And there are no grapes upon the vines,
Even though the olive crop may fail me,
And the fields are bare, no cattle in the barns
Chorus:
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord my God,
And I will have joy in the God of my salvation
He’s a sovereign Lord, and He is my strength
So my feet are sure to tread upon the mountains
Even though the fig trees have no blossoms,
And there are no grapes upon the vines,
Even though the olive crop may fail me,
And the fields are bare, no cattle in the barns
Second Chorus:
Yet I will rejoice in the Lord my God,
And I will have joy in the God of my salvation
He’s a sovereign Lord, and He is my strength
So my feet are as the deer, to tread upon the mountains

You Do All Things Well
(Mark 7: 31-37; Luke 7:22)
Deaf ears are opened
Mute tongues they speak
Demons cast out with a word
The curse, it is broken
Captives set free
The gospel is preached to the poor
Chorus:
You do all things well
You do all things well
With one touch of Your garment
We are made well
Lord, You do all things well
Lame, they are walking
Lepers are clean
The dead are raised up from the grave
Blind eyes are opened
Sickness, it flees
All who believe shall be saved

We Exalt Your Name
(Isaiah 9:6-7)
For unto us You were born
And the government is Yours
And Your name is called
Wonderful, Mighty God
Chorus:
We exalt Your name
You’re the saving King
And You came to bring us life
You’re the Prince of Peace
You’re our Counsellor
Our Messiah, King most high
Your rule will never end
There is justice in Your hand
And upon Your throne
Peace shall reign forevermore

Let My Lips Be Seasoned
(Col 4: 5-6; Eph 5:18-19; James 1:19)
Lord, let my lips be seasoned
Speaking with Your love
Every word be pleasing
Lord, change my heart
Chorus:
Let my lips, Lord, be filled with Your grace
Walk in wisdom, redeeming the days
Speaking in psalms and spiritual songs
Bringing You praise
Help me to answer softly
Being slow to speak
Letting Your living waters
Flow forth from me
Bridge:
I need Your Spirit to fill me
Bring Your breath and give me Your life
A coal of fire to touch me
Remove the vile so the precious flows out
So words of life will come forth from my mouth

Treasure
(Matt 6:19-21, 24; Matt 7:13-14)
We must seek you Father
For You are our reward
You are the sole treasure
You are the living Lord
Do not store earthly treasure
Where thieves break in and steal
But lay them up in heaven
Where the tree of life’s revealed
Chorus
Where our treasure lay
There our heart will be found
Where our heart is found
Reveals if we will enter the gate to life
The path to You is narrow
But broad the path to sin
Many will think they’ve found You
But few will enter in
We cannot serve two master
For one hate will our eyes
To one we will be faithful
The other we will despise

Yes and Amen
(Jude 24-25, 2 Cor 1:20)
To Him who is able, to keep me from falling
To present me faultless before His throne
To God our Saviour, who alone is wisdom
Be dominion, and power forevermore
Chorus:
Amen! I thank You Lord again
All the promises of God are Yes and Amen
Amen! I thank You Lord again
All the promises of God
In Jesus Christ our Lord, are Yes and Amen
