SONG LYRICS

HOLY WATER

VERSE 1
God, I'm on my knees again
God, I'm begging please again
I need you
Oh, I need you

Walking down these desert roads
Water for my thirsty soul
I need you
Oh, I need you

CHORUS
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
Like Holy water on my skin

VERSE 2
Dead man walking, slave to sin
I wanna know about being born again
I need you
Oh, God, I need you

So, take me to the riverside
Take me under, baptize
I need you
Oh, God I need you

CHORUS
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
Like Holy water on my skin

BRIDGE
I don't wanna abuse your grace
God, I need it every day
It's the only thing that ever really makes me wanna change

CHORUS
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
It's like holy water

WHO YOU SAY I AM

VERSE 1
Who am I that the highest King
Would welcome me?
I was lost but He brought me in
Oh His love for me, Oh His love for me

Chorus
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I'm a child of God
Yes I am

Verse 2
Free at last
He has ransomed me
His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin
Jesus died for me
Yes, He died for me

Chorus 2
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I'm a child of God
Yes I am

In my Father's house
There's a place for me
I'm a child of God
Yes I am

BRIDGE
I am chosen not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me not against me
I am who You say I am

Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me

(Verse 1)
What gift of grace is Jesus, my redeemer
There is no more for heaven now to give
He is my joy, my righteousness, and freedom
My steadfast love, my deep and boundless peace

(Chorus)
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
For my life is wholly bound to His
Oh, how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

(Verse 2)
The night is dark, but I am not forsaken
For by my side, the Savior He will stay
I labor on in weakness and rejoicing
For in my need, His power is displayed

(Chorus)
To this I hold, my Shepherd will defend me
Through the deepest valley, He will lead
Oh, the night has been won, and I shall overcome
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

(Bridge)
No fate I dread, I know I am forgiven
The future sure, the price it has been paid
For Jesus bled and suffered for my pardon
And He was raised to overthrow the grave

(Chorus)
To this I hold, my sin has been defeated
Jesus now and ever is my plea
Oh, the chains are released, I can sing: I am free
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

(Verse 3)
With every breath, I long to follow Jesus
Until I stand with joy before the throne
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
All the glory evermore to Him alone

(Chorus)
To this I hold, my hope is only Jesus
For my life is wholly bound to His
Oh, how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine
Yet not I, but through Christ in me
Oh, how strange and divine, I can sing: all is mine
Yet not I, but through Christ in me

THANK YOU JESUS

[Verse 1]
Grace that flows like a river
Washing over me
Fount of heaven, love of Christ
Overflow in me

[Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus
You set me free
Christ my Saviour
You rescued me

[Verse 2]
Take this life delivered
A vessel of Your love
Wholly now devoted
To see Your kingdom come

[Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus
You set me free
Christ my Saviour
You rescued me

[Bridge]
You've given me life
You've opened my eyes
I love You, Lord
I love You, Lord
You've entered my heart
You've set me apart
I love You, Lord
I love You, Lord

[Chorus]
Thank You, Jesus
You set me free
Christ my Saviour
You rescued me
