New Day 04:10
You’ve waken me to a new day You’ve waken me to a new day, 
to seek your face You’ve waken me to a new day You’ve waken me to a new day, 
to sing your praise Come walk along my brothers Let’s walk along, together 
and seek His face 
 Come walk along my sisters Let’s walk along together 
and sing His praise We seek the rising sun 
as we seek the Risen One! We strengthen our hands in God 
and grow in the Savior’s love I see you all around me Building a house within me 
to Your glory, Father I hear you all around me Singing a song over me 
Your love story I watched the sun climb o’er the mountains and paint the sky and warm the Earth and awaken the dawn with rays of light! (repeat) We seek the rising sun, 
as we seek the Risen, One! We strengthen our hands in God, 
and grow in the Savior’s, love We are the children of God; 
we’re seeking our Father’s heart!

Real Love 03:26
We saw not the Saviour 
but we have the word of life To teach us of the Father, 
to show that God is Light So let's not walk in darkness, 
our sins we will confess Jesus Christ the righteous 
will cleanse us of unrighteousness We believe and know 
that Jesus is the Christ God has sent His only Son 
to show real love to… …us, when He comes again 
He'll give eternal life, 
if we obey in words and ways 
that show real love for Him If we are His family 
we will love in word and deed help the sick and needy 
the hungry we will feed do we love the Father 
if others we neglect we must love each other 
His perfect love try to reflect We believe and know 
that Jesus is the Christ God has sent His only Son 
to show real love to… …us, when He comes again 
He'll give eternal life, 
 if we obey in words and ways 
that show real love… We have seen the Father 
but how shall we respond 
to His love, to His love We must love each other 
and walk out arm in arm 
in His love, in His love We believe and know 
that Jesus is the Christ God has sent His only Son 
to show real love to… …us, when He comes again 
He'll give eternal life, 
if we obey in words and ways 
that show real love… We believe and know 
that Jesus is the Christ God has sent His only Son 
to show real love to… …us, when He comes again 
He'll give eternal life, 
if we obey in words and ways 
that show real love, Ooo
 that show real love for Him

As unworthy children, 
we come before You now seeking Your forgiveness, 
as we’ve thought in this last hour of how we’ve fallen short, 
strayed from the narrow way. O God of David’s mercies, 
now to You we humbly pray. O children of the light, 
why do we strive and fight, servants of our gracious Lord? 
Would He heal or use the sword? Would He use those hurtful words, that bring another down? When reviled and made a fool, 
would He open not His mouth? We are children of the promise 
from a God who doesn’t lie He’ll make His seed like to the sand; stars that shine bright in the sky. Children born of flesh and blood; we’re children born of truth and love The promise made unto that Seed, was the promise that 
we’ll soon be freed. For we are not of darkness; 
we’re children of the light. We follow Jesus Christ Your Son; 
try to always do what’s right. To the God of David’s mercies; 
to the only God who saves, We your precious children 
bow to You in praise We are children of the promise 
from a God who doesn’t lie He’ll make His seed like to the sand; stars that shine bright in the sky. Children born of flesh and blood; we’re children born of truth and love The promise made unto that Seed, was the promise that 
we’ll soon be… …freed from sin. 
Freed from lies. 
Freed from lust 
and selfish pride. We’ll be freed from hurt, 
freed from pain, 
to bring an end, 
to sin’s dark reign. We are children of the promise 
from a God who doesn’t lie He’ll make His seed like to the sand; stars that shine bright in the sky. Children born of flesh and blood; we’re children born of truth and love The promise made unto that Seed, was the promise that 
we’ll soon be freed.

Here at Last 04:58
I turned, and saw the earth, 
the wilderness lay waste and bare. The world had lost its way, 
tears from oppressed received no care The grieving Rachel cries, 
the Father’s will is placed aside. The hungry children’s eyes 
have seen no joy under heaven’s skies Saviour, Your dawn will come! 
The sun of righteousness, healing in Your wings, O You’ll come! Saviour, with clouds You’ll come! 
The living waters, Show’ring down in blessings, 
You’ll come! We will all be changed, 
in a moment grasped in time, 
in the twinkling of an eye. The dead shall all arise, 
at the trumpet’s final call. 
 Then God is all in all. We turned, and saw the earth, 
the wilderness blossom and bloom. The sword became a plough. 
We worshiped in spirit and truth. Saviour, Your dawn has come! 
The sun of righteousness, Healing in Your wings, O You’ve come! Saviour, with clouds You’ve come! The living waters, show’ring down 
in blessings, You’ve come! We have all been changed, 
in a moment grasped in time, 
in the twinkling of an eye. The dead have come to life 
at the trumpet’s final call. 
 Now God is all in all. Women:
How long, O Saviour Lord? 
Till our hope is realized? 
Your crown of life our prize?

 Men:
Here at last oh we have come, 
from ev’ry nation, ev’ry tongue, 
Here at last O Lord! 
Here at last O Lord! Women:
O Death where is your sting? 
O Grave your victory? 
Your Truth has set us free.

 Men:
Here at last oh we have come, 
The fight’s been fought, 
the race been run. 
Here at last O Lord! 
Here at last O Lord! Here at last O we have come, 
from ev’ry nation, ev’ry tongue, 
Here at last O Lord! 
Here at last O Lord! Here at last O we have come, 
The fight’s been fought, 
the race been run. 
 Here at last O Lord! 
Here at last O Lord!

You look at me with the eyes 
of a loving Shepherd who laid down His life for the sheep, unworthy though we be. I can't contain these teary eyes 
when I think of how 
You died for me. 
I'll never never ever deserve You. All You endured 
with the sin You bore, surrendered all Your will unto God. Thank You Jesus. You obeyed God in all You thought, 
in all the words You said. You obeyed God in all You did, 
with every breath of life. You obeyed God in everything. Because of Your love for Him… …Him, You endured. 
All my sin You bore. Your compassion I adore. 
Thank You Jesus. For the love set before me, 
thank You Jesus! You changed my life 
when You chose me, Lord, 
to be Your friend and may I never boast in anything but 
the precious blood of the Lamb the blood of the everlasting promise. In Your blood we are sealed. 
By Your stripes we are healed. Reconciled in Your death. 
We are saved by Your life. In Your blood we are sealed. 
By Your stripes we are healed. Reconciled in Your death. 
We are saved by Your life. In your blood we are sealed. 
By Your stripes we are healed. Reconciled in Your death. 
We are saved…
…saved by Your life.

The rising moon 
and setting sun 
shed a light upon 
the race we run. The rising sun 
and setting moon 
show that Christ, 
our Lord is coming soon. So bow your heads to God in praise, for He will give you endless days. Live as His Son did, free from sin and the holy race we all will win. Looking back to the dawn of night, men have placed their trust in earthly might. But no more can man turn away, soon will Christ our Master come to stay. Let all hear the call of the Lord! Throughout all the nations it has soared. Let it be a glorious light, to forever dispel the night. I look unto Thine Israel, when no more in captive lands they’ll dwell. I ask no treasure of my own, but the glorious hope which You have shown. Our faith is built on this firm Rock, when no more on darkened paths we'll walk. Take me from the depths of hell, show me thy Kingdom, Israel. (repeat)

Take Me 02:39
Take me, and mould me by Your love. Take this heart and craft a path 
for righteousness and mercy. Take me, with guidance from above. Take this mind and crucify 
all jealousy and envy. As holy children of You, 
we now pray we’ll grow 
in Your grace and truth. Strip from our lives all foolish pride, Father and Son with us abide, and as Your children 
Your name we glorify. Take me, my broken pieces heal.
Take this love and cleanse me of 
all other loves which I conceal. Take me and everything I am. Take this child that You’ve compiled and make me like the Son of Man. As holy children of You, 
we now pray we’ll grow 
in Your grace and truth. Strip from our lives all foolish pride, Father and Son with us abide, and as Your children 
Your name we glorify.

Day after day 
I seek for water Night after night 
I’m just thankful, for shelter Morning by morning 
I open my eyes with a hope that I can still see Ecclesias are dying 
all around me Young ones just don’t want 
to live in this country I work just to live and 
keep food on my plate Can you see this smiling face? I have nothing yet I 
possess everything I will not be
anxious for anything but by prayer and supplication, I will make my 
requests known to God I have peace beyond 
your understanding. My heart and mind 
always guarded by Christ. I’ve learned to be content 
with every circumstance I’m in. I can do all things through Him. I can do all things, through Him! 
I can do all things, through Him! My God will supply 
every need of my life according to the riches 
of the glory of Christ Hardships, afflictions, 
many sleepless nights I’m hungry, thirsty, 
in danger of my life As dying, but behold I’m alive As punished, yet never killed As sorrowing and yet always rejoicing As poor, but I make many rich Having nothing yet 
I offer them everything They should never be 
anxious for anything The Kingdom of God I first seek so all that I need, 
will be added unto me! I have nothing yet I 
possess everything I will not be
anxious for anything but by prayer and supplication, I will make my 
requests known to God I can do all things, through Him! 
I can do all things, through Him!
I can do all things, through Him! 
I can do all things, through Him! Day after day 
I seek for water Night after night 
I’m just thankful, for shelter Morning by morning 
I open my eyes with a hope that I can still see Ecclesias are dying 
all around me Young ones just don’t want 
to live in this country I work just to live and 
keep food on my plate Can you see this smiling face?

Arise! Shine! 
For your light has come The glory of the LORD 
has risen upon you His glory will be seen upon you Lift up your eyes all around and see They’re gathering together and coming to you, Ooo Your sons and your daughters too Nations will be coming 
to your light And kings to the 
brightness of your rising They will see you and be radiant and your heart will be glad 
and you will dance! The abundance of the sea 
will be turned to you the riches of the earth 
will belong to you, Ooo Many camels will be coming to you There will be no more 
violence within your land Devastation and destruction 
have come to an end and your walls are called Salvation 
and your gates, they are called Praise! They will call you 
the City of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One, 
God of Jacob! Holy One of Israel, it is He that has 
made you beautiful! They will come up to 
my alter and be accepted! I will glorify the house of my glory! I will surely make you 
majestic forever and a joy 
from age to age and you will 
know I am your Lord and Saviour! Nations will be 
bowing at your feet, while I beautify the 
place of my sanctuary… God will be our everlasting light The LORD will be our glory 
and will end all mourning! Rise and shine and 
give God the glory, glory! So arise!
 Rise and shine and 
give God the glory, glory! Shine!

We Wait 03:37
The earth is the LORD’s 
and everything in it, the world and the people 
who are dwelling here If the earth is the LORD’s 
and the people are His, then where is His honour 
and where is His fear? The heavens declare 
the glory of God Expanses proclaim 
His wonders and signs No stars in our skies 
in this city of lights… then whose is the glory 
in this city we’ll find? We’re waiting for 
the future metropolis Built on the glory that 
God has revealed to us This tent is the LORD’s 
and a place for His dwelling, a building of stones 
that are precious and holy Have we built on His plan? 
Through a storm will we stand? Is this a tent that is 
pitched for His glory? By faith we are looking 
to the land of the promise, to beautiful Zion, 
this city will pass us No peace in this place, 
in this land that lacks faith So we will wait 
for a city that lasts us We’re waiting for 
the future metropolis Built on the glory that 
God has revealed to us We see Your design 
and Your hand in our lives. As we’re waiting for Zion 
our faith is not blind, built on the glory through 
the Son you revealed to us. And we wait, and we wait, 
and we wait for his return And we wait, and we wait, 
and we wait for his return 
to Your earth
13.
Sometimes it is beyond my sight 
and inside I feel like I’m dying. I just keep waiting for You 
to come back, to come back. 
Come back. I’m crawling out but falling deeper 
as I leave this place I thought that I would never 
be back here again I try to go but then I fall. 
I’ve got my back up against a wall in the place where I began. 
Can someone help me 
move away from here? I know You use this time 
to get me to where I need to be. For You to build my faith 
required time away from me. I guess all I can do is pray now. There’s nothing here upon the earth that I desire beside You. My heart and flesh may fail 
but God I’ll reach for You. I’ll keep on pressing for the goal, 
with You I’ll never walk alone. Forget what lies behind, 
and in Your strength 
I’ll move away from here. I know You use this time 
to get me to where I need to be I want be closer to You, 
I need some time away from me And all I can do is pray now
