Lord when I'm afraid, Be present When enemies invade, Be my defense When no one knows my name, And all the locks are changed When your light seems to fade away And your promise breaks Give me faith To believe That my life is one that you see Give me hope For today That my future is yours to create Give me love From your heart Love that when every other thing will fall apart Love will remain When morning dawns with light, Remind me When favor's on my side, Stay before me When fame gives way to pride, And everything is mine When I have left you far behind And my drive is blind Give me faith To believe That my life is one that you see Give me hope For today That my future is yours to create Give me love From your heart Love that when every other thing will fall apart Love will remain When I'm hopeless When I'm broken When I lose my way Love will remain In the darkness You have spoken When everything fades Love will remain Give me faith To believe That my life is one that you see Give me hope For today That my future is yours to create Give me love From your heart Love that when every other thing will fall apart Love will remain

Come Home 03:12
Between all our words about coffee and Jesus I hear privilege as loud as a gun We don't know who we are or why Love came to free us But he did and now he's calling to me Come home Come home You don't have to be bad You don't have to be good But come home Come home You don't have to have money or talent or time Cuz the dealer has got em in spades There's a gift that's been given to both you and I Invitation to rest from being alright Now come home Come home You don't have to be bad You don't have to be good But come home Come home Family's hard Some days love is a chore But through all the lows and the highs That's what family's for Come home Come home You don't have to be bad You don't have to be good But come home Come home Come home Come home You don't have to be bad You don't have to be good But come home Come home If worse comes to worse at the end of the day I expect we'll all be surprised Yeah we both might be neighbors so what do you say Let's just go home and call it a night

Grant us hope within the sorrow Give us grace to believe When we feel all but forgotten Let us know that you are near Come and weep, with us Lord Come and weep, with us Lord Stay nearby, as we mourn Come and weep, with us Lord All our hearts are filled with questions Like if you heard us when we prayed Still in the midst of death and darkness We trust Your light to prevail Come and weep, with us Lord Come and weep, with us Lord Stay nearby, as we mourn Come and weep, with us Lord We have moved away the stone Breathe new life into the tomb From our broken hearts let beauty bloom Come and weep, with us Lord Come and weep, with us Lord Stay nearby, as we mourn Come and weep, with us Lord

Overtaken 04:03
In You our hope is found The author of redemption We’re holding on to You Where else can we go You are the rock of our salvation Your word is never shaken Love poured out, all forgiven Lord we’re overtaken We're overtaken Father make us one And heal us of division Help us to forgive That we may know your love You are the rock of our salvation Your word is never shaken Love poured out, all forgiven Lord we’re overtaken We're overtaken Lord make us one Your kingdom come May we sow love That your will be done You are the rock of our salvation Your word is never shaken Love poured out, all forgiven Lord we’re overtaken You are the rock of our salvation Your word is never shaken Love poured out, all forgiven Lord we’re overtaken We're overtaken We're overtaken Your love poured out, and all forgiven Lord we're overtaken

What a friend we have in Jesus All our sins and griefs to bear What a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer Have we trials and temptations Is there trouble anywhere Precious Savior still our refuge Take it to the Lord in prayer Jesus our confidence Jesus our faithful friend Jesus our ever-present help in trouble He calls us by our name He looks us in the face He welcomes us as friends before the Father Soon in glory bright unclouded There will be no need for prayer Rapture praise and endless worship Will be our sweet portion there Jesus our confidence Jesus our faithful friend Jesus our ever-present help in trouble He calls us by our name He looks us in the face He welcomes us as friends before the Father Jesus our confidence Jesus our faithful friend Jesus our ever-present help in trouble He calls us by our name He looks us in the face He welcomes us as friends before the Father

With the advent of the morning There is hope for this new day Though our hearts may be in mourning That is not all they have to say With the advent of the morning There is hope for this new day Though our hearts may be in mourning That is not all they have to say Yes our time may be fleeting And war drums are beating Yet together we can stand and say There is hope There is hope for today While tomorrow may bring sorrow May bring hunger maybe pain Still my time can-not be borrowed And while I'm breathing I will give thanks For through pain and through pleasure In poor and fair weather I will sing and I will say There is hope There is hope for today I know fantasy beckons But reality recons We can dig down deep and firmly say There is hope There is hope for today
