The Grace Trilogy

Lyrics

This is the Love

These are the thorns (3x), the thorns that pierced Him, cutting Him deep to erase our sin, this is the love, this is the love

This is the blood, the blood that was running, down on His face, when He was dying, freely He gave, this is the love

It’s the love, this is the love, it’s the love, this is the love

This is the cross, the cross that he died on, spreading His arms so we can rely on, His father above, this is the love

It’s the love, this is the love 

This is the Tomb, the tomb that He rose from, on the third day, the stone rolled away, no body they found, this is the love

He is love, He is the love, God is love, God is the love

Father God in Heaven, how could you have offered up Your Son, to such a sinner like me, who was always on the  run

Bring me back home again to You, bring me back home

This is the Lamb, the lamb that was offered up for my life when I was guilty, this is the Love, this is the love It’s the love, this is the love

This is the life, the life we’ve been given , so fall on your knees, He’s the King of Kings , this is the love , this is the love          

It’s the love, this is the love                                                                                                                                                                        

This is the chance, the chance we’ve been given, to serve our God, The God who has risen, this is the love, He is the love

He is love, Jesus is love, God is love, God is the love                                                                                                                        

Father God in Heaven, Holy Holy be Thy name,  help me help You reach the lost, through the power of Your Name    

Bring them back home again to You, bring them back home

He’s coming back, to take all of us home, those who believe He sits on the throne, He is the love, He is the love

He is love, He is love  

Disappointing God

I hear the rooster crow for the third time, my sin is revealed the guilt is mine

I used to fear spiders, terrorism and the I R Sssss, now the only thing that gets my fear in a mess, is disappointing God

Now I’m stuck in the belly of a whale, how can You love me through my epic fails                                                             

I used to fear living, my life just for You, now I just fear losing the Grace that comes from You, this grace from You                

It’s like one of those bad dreams when you need to run away, but your legs won’t move     

It’s life living in the quicksand of sin, holding on to your pride is the only way you’ll lose                                              

It’s living your life for just one person, when it should be Him, but instead it’s only you           

Disappointing God, is the one thing I fear most                                                                                                

My strength is gone, and so is my hair, I’m blind as well in my deepest despair                                                                           

I used to think winning, was within a lady’s gaze, now the thing I desire most, is God’s grace, God’s grace, Your grace

It’s like one of those day dreams when you find yourself in forever paradise                  

It’s life living in the Grace of our Savior , our souls sing His praises for all the rest of time                                 

It’s falling on your face before Him, but He picks you up and wipes the tears from your eyes      

And then no more, will I disappoint my Lord, I pray no more, will I disappoint You, Lord                                      

It’s like one of those day dreams when you find yourself in forever paradise                  

It’s life living in the Grace of our Savior, our souls sing His praises for all the rest of time                                 

It’s falling on your face before Him, but He picks you up and wipes the tears from your eyes      

And then no more, will I disappoint my Lord, I pray no more, will I disappoint You, Lord                                      

Waiting for Grace

When the world,  has beat you to your core, knocked you flat on your face, praying on the cold unforgiving floor

I have  been  there, I know your pain, my friend, but this is what I did to never be alone, I sent this prayer up to the throne

Waiting for Your grace to cover all of me and waiting for Your truth to finn’ly set me free in Your Love

When your life, has turned to fifty shades of unrepented sin, shaped like an anvil you can’t handle,

Worsening the scandal, send this prayer up to the throne

Waiting for Your grace to cover all of me and waiting for Your truth to finn’ly set me free and

Waiting for Jesus to flow through all of me and waiting for Your Word to fill the void in me with Your Love

Oh Lord, we need Your Grace, to come, into this place

Evangelizing Neo

Hey Neo, you’ve been down this road before,  It only leads to the same heart-break, as it did before

But there’s a narrow path, He’s calling you to walk down, through His name and with His love, the lost sheep have been found               

His people have been found

Hey Neo, you’re always fighting for control, but this time, as it seems , you fallen down the rabbit hole

Take the blue pill, you’ll wake up just the same, but read the red letters, find out why Jesus came, and the power of His name

What is real, am I lost, is life just a series of pain and cost?

What is right, is it wrong, could it be contained in a song to show you His love

Is there anything more to life, than the Father’s love?  Coming down from heaven, like a pure and white Holy dove

Hey Neo, I know you’re searching for The Truth, bending spoons and dodging bullets, is how you spent your youth  

But I’m telling you here and now, there’s a better way, turn eyes up unto heaven to see , the clear light of day,  His glory lights the Way

What is real, am I lost, is life just a series of pain and cost?

What is right, is it wrong, could it be contained in a song to show you His love

Is there anything more to life, than the Father’s love?  Coming down from heaven, like a pure and white Holy dove

Hey Neo, your whole world’s been a dream, wake up, wake up, wake up my friend, this life is not as it seems

You’re waking from your dream

The Monster’s Voice

The monster’s voice, has been silenced by the Lamb, the wretched parts of me, they have all been fully cleansed

Lord, please take away, all of this unending pain, and fill the hole that’s left, with your unending grace

Grace, ah, Your unending grace

The monster’s voice, sometimes I hear it speak again, I have a choice, Lord please forgive me of my sins

Create Your vessel, from this broken lump of clay, and from this vessel, share your redeeming grace 

Grace, ah, Your redeeming grace

Lord, please create in me, all the things, that You want me to be                                          

Take my body, soul, and my mind, and make them Yours, for the rest, for the rest of time

Time, ah, for the rest of my time                                

In you I find peace, the monster was just a pest, through Jesus’ Name, I’ve been blessed, oh                                              

Through Your Name, I’ll find my inner peace and sanctifying grace, in You I will rest  (3x); in You I will rest

If I Wrote a Song 

There’s just something about You my Lord, my Lord  

My story can’t be told without You my Lord, my Lord

Listen to what I have to say, there’s just no ‘me’ if You went away

If  I  wrote a song, for You, that was heard around the world, You couldn’t love me anymore

If I sang that song to You,  each night and all day, Your love for me wouldn’t fade                      

There’s just no easy way to say it, I’m lost without you, I really need you, tonight

One (one, one, one), two (two, two, two), three (three, three, three),    four, here we go, there’s the door

My Love I feel this is so incredible, my life is no longer my own, it belongs to You

My Savior, awesome in power, You’re the King of Kings and Morning Star, my life belongs to You 

I wanna write a song for You, that is heard around the world So all will hear of Your Love, and what You’ve done for me

But if I wrote a song for You, that was heard around the world    You couldn’t love me any more, more than You already do

It’s true, I’m in You, more than You already do It’s true, I’m in You, more than You already do                    

All my life I’ve waited to find the Truth, and now I’ve found it, in Your Name (hallelujah)

I feel like flying, my soul it’s invincible, it’s been washed, in His Holy Blood (hallelujah)   

Amen, amen, hallelujah     

I wanna write a song for You, that is heard around the world      So all will hear of Your love, and what You’ve done for me          

But if I wrote a song for You, that was heard around the world    You couldn’t love me any more, more than You already do

It’s true, I’m in You, more than You already do It’s true, I’m in You, more than You already do                    

If I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song              

If I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song              

If I wrote a song for You, if I wrote a song for You,  

If I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song, if I wrote a song                

If I wrote a song  for You, If I wrote a song for You,     

My Love I feel this is so incredible, my life is no longer my own, it belongs to You

My Savior, Awesome in Power, You’re the King of Kings and Morning Star, my life belongs to You 

Stranger Things

Have you ever seen any stranger thing, than a street made of gold and a land of no suffering                     

No suffering, there will be no 

(tell me) Have you ever heard of a brighter song, than one from a sinner who has been made right from wrong?                     

Made right from wrong, I was made right                               

(tell me) Have you ever heard such a stranger sound, than the heavens and earth coming together to sing His song?   

They sing Your praise, we all sing Your                              

(tell me) Have you ever seen such a stranger site, than the heavens rolling back like a scroll in the middle of the night?         

He’s coming back, like a thief in the night      

(night) (in the night)  it’s such a deep mystery (mystery)     

That I have a love like this (in my life)            

That I have a God such as You (in my heart)

Stranger things cannot exist (in my life)                               

More wonderful things could not exist in my mind   

Amen, alleluia, amen, amen, amen, amen 

Did you ever hear of a stranger thing, than a God coming to earth like a man but not as a King?           

Not an earthly king but an offering                             

(tell me) Did you ever hear of a stranger love, than a sacrificial lamb sent for you and me from Heaven above?                    

From heaven above , He was sent from                                                               

(tell me) Did you ever think of a stranger thing, than life itself, our existence, and all created things?                              

All created things, it’s such a deep mystery                                                

That I have a love like this (in my life)            

That I have a God such as You (in my heart)

Stranger Things cannot exist (in my life)                             

More wonderful things could not exist in my mind   

 (In my mind) , in my heart , in my soul , in my whole life, life

Revival

Gonna go d-down to the re-re-re-revival,  get the preacher man to assign me a Bible

Gonna read it every night and read it every day, till the evil inside of me has gone gone  away

Oh Lord, I should have known, You’d never leave me alone

The Love You’re showin’ to me (ah, ah), makes me wanna believe in you  

Gonna go d-down to the ri-ri-ri-river, get the preacher man to stand up and deliver                                   

For I’m gonna get baptized on this very day, ‘till the evil that was inside, has got no way!                              

Oh Lord, I should have known, You’d never leave me alone

The Love You’re showin’ to me (ah, ah), makes me wanna believe in you  

And when the morning finally comes and the promise of a new day is here                                                                       

I look around myself and realize, Lord I’m so thankful You’re near, thank God You’re near, me                    

And if the boat has a hole in the middle , and the waters start rushing gushing in                                                        

I’d take Your hand and we’d walk on the water, as You graciously forgive my sins, forgive my sins                     

Gonna go d-down to the re-re-re-revival, get the preacher man to assign me a Bible,

Oh Lord, I should have known, You’d never leave me alone                                                                             

The Love You’re showin’ to me (ah, ah), makes me wanna believe

I wanna, I wanna, I wanna Praise You, I wanna,  I wanna, I wanna thank You                             

Oh let me, oh let me, oh let me Praise You, I wanna,  I wanna, I wanna thank You Lord,  Thank you  ,  Lord

Froggy Prince

I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince, I was a troll, but through your love, I turned into a dove  

I was livin’ in a darkened place, until I first saw your precious face I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince la la la la, I became a prince, la la la la

Will you be my queen in our forever-land, will you be my boo-boo Anderson

May the clouds never rain upon us until we ask them too, then we’ll dance throughout the puddles and-a carry home our shoes

May the Good Lord bless us with a family of our own, and a good sturdy house and a warm loving home 

I share it with you, I  share with you,  I  share it with you,  and the ones we love,  and it’s all because

I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince, I was a troll, but through your love, I turned into a dove  

I was livin’ in a lonesome world, until that day when you became my girl

I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince la la la la, I became a prince, la la la la

(Shhhh) And after we put, our children to sleep, you lower the lights, so it’s just you and me                                   

We can binge an entire season of This is Us, or cuddle up upon the couch and read an entire omnibus      

We’ll build a world of our own, a life that’s full of eternal bliss, and to think it all started from a little froggy kiss   

I shared with you, I shared it with you, on a beach on the moon,  I shared with you,  and it led to love

We’ll build a world of our own, a life that’s full of eternal bliss, and to think it all started from just a little froggy kiss     

I shared with you, I shared it with you, it was that kiss too soon, I shared with you, and it’s all because

I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince, I was a troll, but through your love, I turned into a dove  

I was livin’ such an incomplete  life, until you finally became my wife               

I was a frog, but with your kiss, I became a prince la la la la, I became a prince, la la la la

Look at me now!  I’m riding on a white horse , I’m holding a big jousting stick

I’m about to concour me some land , and build a castle that’s sick

We’ll raise our kids in there you know, you and I , when you become my queen and I’m your king, I’m a prince!  I’m a prince!   (Yeah!)


Holy Offering

O Lord, help me live what I read, let Your word come alive from this piece of paper, I’m Your creation and, You’re my maker,

Let my life reflect Your divine nature, Lord let me live what I read, that my life might be a Holy offering

Woke up in the morning wasn’t feeling so grand , Lord, how could this be part of Your plan?

But I open up Your word to Psalm eighty three, Lord, what a blessing

Oh, Lord, help me be what I sing, let Your word come alive from this piece of music, I’m Your creation and I hope You’ll use it,

Let my soul-muscle flex so I’ll never lose it, Lord let me live what I sing, that my life might be a Holy offering

Oh, Lord, help me practice what I preach, let Your love come alive through my every action, I’m your SUV, Your word’s my traction,

Let my life reflect Your divinepassion, Lord let me live what I say, that my life might be Yours ev’ryday 

Fin’lly got to work mid-afternoon, but I couldn’t think of an ending to this tune, 

So I openned up again to Psalm eighty three, Lord, another blessing    

Oh, Lord, help me live what I read, let Your word come alive from this piece of paper, I’m Your creation and You’re my maker,

Let my life reflect your divine nature, Lord help me live what I read, that my life might be a Holy offering,

I wanna be a Holy Offering , Lord, let me be a Holy Offering        

(and) Let them know that You, whose name is the Lord, that You alone are the highest over all of the earth  

Tapping

Slowly I turned , just in time to see You smile and start to tap your feet, to this song for a while

How lonely I’ve been, without You in my life, You’re simply my best friend, the whole reason I’m alive

I don’t even know how You begin to forgive me of my sins, this must be love

And now I’m in love, with the message of the cross, He sent His Son from above, to gather up His lost

I don’t even know how You begin to forgive me all my sins, this must be love

Is Jesus tapping His feet to this song now , Up on Heaven’s glorious throne how sweet it would be, oh if I could just see 

Jesus tapping His feet to this song now , Building me an eternal home, how sweet it would be, oh if I could just see 

Jesus tap His feet, oh oh, gloria, gloria, gloria, gloria, gloria,  
I’ll wash Your feet, with my pain and tears, with my pain and tears, I’ll wash Your feet, with my pain and tears 

The (Real) Cup Song

You fill up my cup and my cup runs over, when I am sad I wanna cry on Your shoulder

But You lift up my head and wipe away my tears, I wanna sing Your praises for a 1,000 more years

Singin’, hallelu, hallelujah, ha la la la la le, hallelujah        

We’re singin’, hallelu, hallelujah, sing it to the great cup filler, hallelujah   

You fill up my cup and my cup runs over       Feel the blessings flow from my great absolver

And when life’s dangers and the night has come, I will call upon Jesus Christ, Your Son (singing)     

Singin’, hallelu, hallelujah, ha la la la la le, hallelujah        

We’re singin’, hallelu, hallelujah, sing it to the great cup filler, hallelujah   

Check it out, I’m singing to The Lord from early morn to late night, when the spirit fills my soul, my soul sings about the Light, that

Came into the world 2000 years ago on that day,    He said I am The Truth, The Light and I am The only Way

So for-get about your selfishness and concentrate on him          Lay your burdens on the altar and God will soon begin

To turn your life around    I’m talkin’ a buck ‘80 degrees         Real men aren’t afraid to fall-before-God-on-their-knees (please fill my cup)

Sing-it-to-the-great-cup-filler, hallelujah,  praise be to my redeemer, hallelujah

Sing praise to the blessing giver, hallelujah, I’m gonna go wash my sins in the river, hallelujah

Sing-it-to-the-great-cup-filler, hallelujah  

You’re the Reason I Sing (Take This)

Take this broken vessel and make it sail again, with the winds of Your righteousness

And with sails of obedience, and mast that’s firmly welded in your Word, a mast that’s firmly welded in Your Word 

Take this lump of clay and make me dance again, with the joy of deliverance

Absolution of the evidence, that kept me off the sacred potter’s wheel, my sin kept me off the sacred potter’s wheel  

Take this joyful noise and make it a symphony, unto Your ears, a God inspired melody, a sacrifice to, my, king,

You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing     

Take this broken man, turn him ‘a miracle, a masterpiece by Your grace, 

Lord I long to see Your face, and sing Your songs a-long heaven’s  golden shores, I’ll sing to You in heaven forevermore v

 (oh please…) Take this joyful noise and make it a symphony, unto Your ears, a God inspired melody, a sacrifice to, my, king,

You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing     

Take this broken vessel and let me sail again, with the winds of Your righteousness

And with sails of obedience, and a mast that’s firmly welded in Your Word

Take this joyful noise and make it a symphony, unto Your ears, a God inspired melody, a sacrifice to, my, king,

You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing al-la-la-la-la-le-luia, You’re the reason I sing 

Prodigal

(1st verse sung by Bradley Clark)

It’s been a little while  since I’ve come to you       

On my knees in prayer, you’re the God that’s everywhere

It’a been a little while  since I’ve said your name  

Not in vain, but the fact still remains (that)

           You are the creator of both earth and sea,  

Creating it all to get to know me , and to hold me

When I was gone, you were still waiting for me, patiently 

With open arms, waiting for me to come home,  to come home       

It’s been a little while  since I’ve read your Word,  

Genesis through Revelation, God and man, incarnation  

It’a been a little while  since I’ve praised Your name  

Glory glory glory, Hallelujah to Your Holy Name           

           You are the creator of both the sky and the sea,  

Creating it all for Your Glory, and to know me

When I was gone, you were still waiting for me, patiently

With open arms, waiting for me to come home                        

          When You saw me,  I saw you jump to your feet, excitedly

Running to hold me, and to welcome me home                                 

Now that I’m back in your fold,

A former black sheep that you can mold, I can’t believe

(That you were) waiting for me to come home , to come home       

So now we sing, Glory, Glory, Hallelujah, Glory to your Name, sing with us now,

Glory, Glory, Hallelujah, Glory to your Name

So glad I’m home

So Help Me God

(lyrics by Adrian Hurtado, 2nd verse sang by Bradley Clark)  

For so long, I struggled from within, tormented by my sin, I refused to let You in

The lack of love I felt, just living for myself, the only book upon the shelf, all alone and needing help

Then You came into my life, to rid me of my strife, to fill my darkness, with Your Light

Your living water , cleansed me Lord, and You have made me whole, the blood You shed sanctified my soul

You gave your life that I might live with You eternally, You light the path that I now walk, You are the risen Son

When You came into my life, You rid my of my strife, you filled my darkness, with Your Light

So help me God, to understand why You forgave me, why You sent your Son to save me

So help me God, to change my heart to love You, to put nothing else above You, help, help me God

You are The Light, You are the dawn, You take my darkness, risen Son  

So help me God to understand why you forgave me, why You sent Your Son to save me                              

So help me God, to change my heart to love You, to put nothing else above You                                              

You are the Light, You are the dawn, You take my darkness, risen Son   

Help me God  to understand why You forgave me, why You sent Your Son to save me                

You are The Light, You are the dawn, You take my darkness, risen Son                                                                    

So help me God, to change my heart to love You, to put nothing else above You                                              

You are the Light, You are the dawn, You take my darkness, risen Son   

Appleday

There will be a day when the lion and the lamb play in the fields together, peacefully together

And there will be a day when the Great I Am claims His thrown forever, forever more

And on that day when the trumpets sound and my feet can no longer stay on the ground

I will sing to you, Hallelujah

There will  be a day when I no longer care what this world has to offer, why even bother?

And there will be a day when Jesus comes and takes me away, up to heaven

And on that day when the trumpets sound and my feet can no longer stay on the ground

I will sing to you, Hallelujah,

You are the King of Kings and the Great I Am , your Light guides my feet and you take me by the hand

You are the Morning Star and the Prince of Peace , with a word You created both earth and sea

I sing Ha, Hallelujah, to the Great I Am

Holy, Holy, Holy, is the Lord God almighty, Holy, Holy, Holy, is our God

Homecoming

On and on and on it goes, where it stops, nobody knows, but the Father in Heaven who sits on His throne,

I can’t wait to be home, I can’t wait to get home 

Oh my love, I can not be still, when my heart stirs, like a chemical spill,  when my

Soul is on fire for the blood of the lamb , who is The Great I Am, He is The Great I Am     

Oh my love, I can not go on, without telling you,  of God’s only Son sent from                                       

Heaven above, to the earth down below, oh how He does love you so, oh how He does love you so  

Sitting in another daze, every time I try to contemplate Your Holy grace

Standing on a cold island, every time I try to get a good cry in You sing

Praising in another place, every time I try to comprehend Your Holy face

Fishing for another broken soul, knowing only You can truly make their shattered lives whole

When the storm breaks and courageous fail, look to above, to the narrow trail find the

Path of the blood that leads to Calvary, Lord won’t You please save me, Lord won’t You please forgive me, amen

On and on and on it goes, where it stops, nobody knows, but the Father in Heaven who sits on His throne,

Father in Heaven who sits on His throne, I can’t wait to be home, I can’t wait to get home                      

Sitting in another daze, every time I try to contemplate Your Holy grace,  (hallelujah to our God)     

Standing on a cold island, every time I try to get a good cry in You sing   (oh my child, you’re not alone)

Praising in another place, every time I try to comprehend Your Holy face  (hallelujah to our God)

Fishing for another broken soul, knowing only You can truly make their shattered lives whole (you are not alone)

Abba Father

There’s a mystery, in the sweet name of Jesus, there’s a great relief when you call out His Name,

Eternal Life, is waiting there for you to grasp it, and in this lifetime, you can be saved 

Abba, Abba Father,  Abba, Abba Father

It would be a crying shame, if you never met Jesus                                                                          

It would be the end of the game if you don’t cry out His name                                                    

Eternal Life, no more trials and tribulations, and in this lifetime, you can be saved               

Abba, Abba Father,  Abba, Abba Father

Oh what a precious relief it was on that day I found out Your love was mine

The star in the East over Bethlehem Skye, signaled that You were divine

Oh what a precious thing, Your love is to me, oh what a beautiful place, heaven’s going to be

Oh what a precious thing, Your love is to me, oh what a beautiful place, heaven’s going to be

Oh what a precious thing, Your love is to me, o
