Lord I lift Your name on high

Lord I love to sing Your praises

I’m so glad You’re in my life

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

The Lord is high above the heavens
And His glory above the nations

Strength where I’ve been weakened, forever He will reign

LIFT EV'RY VOICE AND SING

Lift ev’ry voice and sing,

till earth and heaven ring,

ring with the harmonies of liberty.

Let our rejoicing rise

high as the list’ning skies,

let it resound loud as the rolling sea.

 

Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us.

Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us.

Facing the rising sun

of our new day begun,

let us march on till victory is won.

 

Stony the road we trod,

bitter the chast’ning rod,

felt in the days when hope unborn had died;

yet with a steady beat,

have not our weary feet

come to the place for which our people sighed?

 

We have come over a way that with tears has been watered.

We have come, treading our path thro’ the blood of the slaughtered,

out from the gloomy past,

till now we stand at last

where the bright gleam of our bright star is cast.

 

God of our weary years,

God of our silent tears,

thou who hast brought us thus far on the way,

thou who hast by thy might

led us into the light,

keep us forever in the path, we pray.

 

Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met thee;

lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget thee;

shadowed beneath thy hand,

may we forever stand,

true to our God, true to our native land.

 

LEAD ME, GUIDE ME

Lead me, guide me along the way

For if You lead me I cannot stray

Lord let me walk each day with Thee

Lead me O Lord, lead me

 

I am weak and I need Thy strength and power

To help me over my weakest hour

Let me through the darkness Thy face to see,

Lead me, oh Lord, lead me

 

I am lost if you take your hand from me,

I am blind without Thy Light to see

Lord just always let me Thy servant be

Lead me, oh Lord, lead me

 

BELIEVE FOR IT

They say this mountain can't be moved

They say these chains will never break

But they don't know You like we do

There is power in Your name

 

We've heard that there is no way through

We've heard the tide will never change

They haven't seen what You can do

There is power in Your name

So much power in Your name

 

CHORUS

Move the immovable

Break the unbreakable

God, we believe

God, we believe for it

From the impossible

We'll see a miracle

God, we believe

God, we believe for it

 

We know that hope is never lost

For there is still an empty grave

God, we believe, no matter what

There is power in Your name   

So much power in Your name

 

REPEAT CHORUS

You are the way when there seems to be no way

We trust in You, God, You have the final say

You are the way when there seems to be no way

We trust in You, God, You have the final say

REPEAT CHORUS

 

God, we believe

God, we believe for it
