wake me up
v
wake me up
wake me up from the world to your word
wake me up
from an appetite for the absurd
wake me up
from my impotent idols of rust
wake me up
from these dreams that drop into dust
(chorus)
shake me and wake me and open my eyes
i'm born again in the image of christ
lord let the beauty of jesus shine through
and wake me up...
to you

stand
v. 1
anything i thought gain
let me count it as loss
may the fragrance i leave
be of christ and the cross
any worldly success
any measure of fame
may it glorify you
for the sake of your name
(chorus)
i'll stand on your promises
i'll stand in the grace you give
i'll stand when the darkness falls
upheld by your right hand...
i'll stand
v. 2
in my talents and gifts
in the word i apply
may i humbly serve
in the strength you supply
and should i persevere
in the faith you have sown
then it's only by grace
when i kneel at your throne
(bridge)
if you should mark my sin lord
how could i stand?
you reach down from the cross lord
and take my hand...

more like jesus
more like jesus, lord i pray
more like jesus, day by day
more like jesus, may i be
more like jesus, less like me

follow me
v. 1
these words that i say
are hard to obey
let those with ears to hear
heed and draw near
(chorus)
those things you prize consider loss
put down your pride and pick up your cross
prepare to die and count the cost
and come and follow me
v. 2
even birds have their nest
and the fox has his rest
there's no place i lay my head
let the dead tend the dead
(bridge)
take my yoke upon you and learn from me
for my burden is light and my yoke is easy
v. 3
then one day we will feast
where the first shall be least
and this lowly lovely bride
shall sit by my side

overwhelmed
long ago before this world was formed
you reached out and numbered all my days
grace and mercy flowing down through time
e'er this heart or lips could sing your praise
(chorus)
you overwhelm me god
with love that never ends
you overwhelm me god
that you would call me friend
you overwhelm me
you overwhelm me
you overwhelm me god
at the cross you turned your face away
poured on christ the ocean of my sin
now i'm safe beneath your holy eyes
judging me yet seeing only him
(bridge)
and worlds may spin and stars may fall
you speak your word control them all
and hearts of stone are turned to flesh
they're miracles, your miracles

you*
you display amazing grace
in the death of your beautiful son
how he glady took my place
suffered shame that your will may be done

opened my heart and set me free

seeing
v1
bruised and beaten
taunted torn
humbled hung
in shame
scorned and censured
murdered mocked
seeing still
you came
chorus
for the joy you saw
you saw it through
through your dying eyes
we see him too...
teach us to hope
teach us to see like you do
teach us to die
teach us to live life in you
teach us to love... like you
v2
weak and wicked
hateful hearts
"crucify"
we cried
sinful straying
boasting blind
yet for us
you died

can i worship?
can i worship you lord?
is a broken heart
the right place to start?
will you take this prayer?
and make it pleasing lord
to your holy ear?
i long to know you better
and study all your ways
i yearn to be together
forever and always
can i honor you lord?
with this old guitar (alt. will these things i do)
i've carried so far? (alt. bring glory to you?)
as i lift up my voice
will you hear me lord
and help me rejoice?
i long to sing your praises
and stand within your court
your mercy, glory, grace amazes
yet all these words fall short
so i sing
allelujah
allelu
allelujah
lord i love you
