Serving God with Your Talent

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
It’s 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]
Let me hear you
Your forgiveness
Is like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
It’s like holy water on my skin
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, yes it is
It’s like the sound of a symphony to my ears
Like holy water
Your forgiveness
Oh, it’s like sweet, sweet honey on my lips
Like the sound of a symphony to my ears
It’s like holy water on my skin
It’s like holy water on my skin
It’s like holy water

Wake Up

[Verse 1]
We have seen the pain
That shaped our hearts
And in our shame
We’re still breathing, ’cause
We have seen the hope
Of Your healing
Rising from our souls
Is the feeling
We are drawing close
Your light is shining through

[Chorus]
So wake up, wake up
Wake up all you sleepers
Stand up, stand up
Stand up all you dreamers
Hands up, hands up
Hands up all believers
Take up your cross, carry it on

[Verse 2]
All that You reveal
With light in us
Will come to life
And start breathing, ’cause
We have seen the hope
Of Your healing
Rising from our souls
Is the feeling
We are drawing close
Your light is shining through

[Chorus]
So wake up, wake up
Wake up all you sleepers
Stand up, oh stand up
Stand up all you dreamers
Hands up, oh hands up
Hands up all believers
Take up your cross, carry it on

[Bridge]
Here we stand, our hearts are Yours
Not our will but Yours be done

[Chorus]
So wake up, wake up, wake up
Wake up all you sleepers
Stand up, oh stand up
Stand up all you dreamers
Hands up, oh hands up
Hands up all believers
Take up your cross, carry it on

[Bridge]
Here we stand, our hearts are Yours
Not our will but Yours be done

Come To Me

[Verse 1]
I am the Lord, your God
I go before you now
I stand beside you, I’m all around you
Though you feel I’m far away
I’m closer than your breath
I am with you wherever you go

[Verse 2]
I am the Lord, your Peace
No evil will conquer you
Steady now your heart and mind
Come into My rest
Oh, let your faith arise
Lift up your weary head
I am with you
Wherever you go

[Chorus 1]
So come to Me, ’cause I’m all you need
Come to Me, I’m everything
Come to Me, I’m all you need
Come to Me, I’m your everything

[Verse 3]
I am your anchor, in the wind and the waves
And I am your steadfast, so don’t be afraid
If your heart and flesh fail you
I’m your faithful strength
And I am with you
Wherever you go

[Chorus 1]
So come to Me, ’cause I’m all you need
Come to Me, I’m everything
Come to Me, I’m all you need
Come to Me, I’m your everything

[Bridge]
When the storm rages, I won’t be afraid
‘Cause I have locked eyes on You face to face
Your voice I will follow
Your eyes I will see
Come a little closer, come close to me

[Verse 4]
Oh, ’cause You are my anchor in the wind and waves
I will stand steadfast
Oh, You are my…
And I won’t be afraid
‘Cause even in the darkest nights, I know You are there
So I press into You, Jesus

‘Cause You are my anchor in the wind and waves
Oh, and You are my steadfast and I won’t be afraid
If my heart and flesh fail me, You’re my faithful strength
You are with us wherever we go

[Chorus 2]
So Jesus, we come to You ’cause You’re all we need
And we come to You, our everything
Oh, we come to You ’cause You’re all we need
And we come to You, our everything
