Sandi Patty

Your eyes look around the distant stars
taking in everything in galaxies so far
Yet on one crowded planet, circling one certain sun
of the billions here I am only one
Yet you see me, You see me, see me

Your ears taking each day's deafning roar
the screams, the machines, rockets, radios and more
Word of each man and woman, prayers of each boy and girl
every cry and curse still somehow in this world
You hear me, You hear me, hear me

Before a word is on my tongue,


You've seen it birth within my heart
You even understand my reasons
for You search my deepest parts and
You know me, You know me, know me

That's why Father God I stand amazed
for you know me so well
yet I'm lavished with Your grace
You forgive all my sin
even call me Your child
I'm forever yours for I can't deny
You love me ! You see me ! You hear me ! You know me!
You love me, You love me, You love me.

I hear You calling out my name as only You can do
Your voice it covers all my shame, the old You turned to new
No matter how things look to me
You see a destiny, a perfect promise

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, You call me Yours

It's hard for me to understand exactly what You see
I slip and stumble everyday but still You say believe
He'll say you finish what you start
You've seen me from my heart and not the bruises

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, You call me Yours

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, forgive an impure, You call me Yours

I hear You calling out my name as only You can do
Your voice it covers all my shame, the old You turned to new
No matter how things look to me
You see a destiny, a perfect promise

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, You call me Yours

It's hard for me to understand exactly what You see
I slip and stumble everyday but still You say believe
He'll say you finish what you start
You've seen me from my heart and not the bruises

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, You call me Yours

You call me beautiful, You call me righteous
You call me worthy of Your Son's own precious blood
You call me holy, You call me strong at my weakest
Forgive an impure, forgive an impure, You call me Yours

In the autumn of New England
With the sea electric blue
And the Arizona desert
When a storm rolls into view

In the Southern spring time meadows
Where the daffodils have grown
I have seen the glory, Lord, of You alone

In the California sunset
And the Carolina dawn
In the tall wheat field's of Kansas
The Mississippi rolling on and on

In the midnights of Montana
And the snows of Yellowstone
I have seen the glory, Lord, of You alone

You alone have such wisdom
And wonderful plans
You alone form such beauty
With a simple command

I see evidence of power
Know You reign from heavens throne
The glory, all glory belongs to You alone

And the crown of Your creation
This human tapestry
You have formed us in Your image
Yet with such diversity

From the children of all nations
Down to those that are my own
I have seen the glory, Lord, of You alone

You alone have such wisdom
And wonderful plans
You alone form such beauty
With a simple command

I see evidence of power
Know You reign from heaven's throne
The glory, all glory belongs to You alone

There is no other one
That can do what You do
None will I worship
For I'm not [Incomprehensible]

And I see evidence of power
Know You reign from heaven's throne
The glory, all glory belongs to You alone

And I see evidence of power
Know You reign from heaven's throne
The glory, all glory belongs to You alone

Shooting arrows in the darkness.
Holding fire in your hands.
Oh and yesterday's forsaken
Cause the innocence was taken away.

And so the ashes blow around me.
My fears rise up to fan the flame.
But in the midst of all my sorrow,
I hear a distant sweet tomorrow
Call my name.

(Chorus):
When I heal,
When I learn,
When I face all that I've been running from.
When I see,
When I know that my time has come.
When I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.

Secrets locked away deep inside.
Shadows are never far behind.
But what rattles in the closet
Can be driven from the darkness today.

(Chorus)

Climbing the stairway of regrets,
It's hard to fathom what he forgives, he forgets.

(Chorus)

(Repeat 2x):
I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.

Shooting arrows in the darkness.
Holding fire in your hands.
Oh and yesterday's forsaken
Cause the innocence was taken away.

And so the ashes blow around me.
My fears rise up to fan the flame.
But in the midst of all my sorrow,
I hear a distant sweet tomorrow
Call my name.

(Chorus):
When I heal,
When I learn,
When I face all that I've been running from.
When I see,
When I know that my time has come.
When I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.

Secrets locked away deep inside.
Shadows are never far behind.
But what rattles in the closet
Can be driven from the darkness today.

(Chorus)

Climbing the stairway of regrets,
It's hard to fathom what he forgives, he forgets.

(Chorus)

(Repeat 2x):
I can feel the sun again,
Now the morning light's my friend.
When the ash is a flame.
When I heal.

Face to face my Savior and Lord

And we shall behold Him
Our Savior and Lord!
Savior and Lord!!

Was it a morning like this
When the Son still hid from Jerusalem?
And Mary rose from her bed,
To tend the Lord She thought was dead?

Was it a morning like this,
When Mary walked down from Jerusalem?
And two angels stood at the tomb,
Bearers of news she would hear soon.

Did the grass sing?
Did the earth rejoice to feel you again?
Over and over like a trumpet underground,
Did the earth seem to pound:
“He is risen!”
Over and over in a neverending round:
“He is risen; alleluia, alleluia!”

Was it an morning like this,
When Peter and John ran from Jerusalem?
And as they raced for the tomb,
Beneath their feet, was there a tune?

(chorus)

Was it a morning like this,
When my Lord looked out
On Jerusalem?
He is risen, alleluia, alleluia.

down the via dolorosa in Jerusalem that day
the solders tried to clear the narrow street
but the crowd pressed in to see
the man condemned to die on calvary

he was bleeding from a beating, there were stripes upon his back
and he wore a crown of thorns upon his head
and he bore with every step

When others see with earthly eyes
Just what they want to see
You will see the thing that never die
You will know and recognize
By simple child like faith
The priceless truth that others will deny

When others say I'm just a man
Who liked to dream his dreams
When others call a miracle a myth
You'll listen for eternity
In moments as they pass
And see with spirit eyes what others miss

Upon this Rock I'll build my Kingdom
Upon this Rock forever and ever it shall stand
And all the powers of Hell itself
Shall never more prevail against it
For Satan's thrones are built on sicking sand

Upon this Rock I'll build my Kingdom
And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand
Upon this Rock of revelation
I'll build a strong and mighty nation
And it shall stand the storms of time
Upon this rock

If in a simple carpenter
You see the Son of God
If you will choose to lose
When you could win
If you will give your life away for nothing
In retern, then you are where
My kindom will begin

Upon this Rock I'll build my Kingdom
Upon this Rock forever and ever it shall stand
And all the powers of Hell itself
Shall never more prevail against it
For Satan's thrones are built on sicking sand

Upon this Rock I'll build my Kingdom
And on this rock forever and ever it shall stand
Upon this Rock of revelation
I'll build a strong and mighty nation
And it shall stand the storms of time
Upon this rock

Upon this Rock I'll build my kingdom
And on this Rock forever shall stand
Upon this Rock of revelation
I'll build a strong and mighty nation,
And it shall stand the storms of time
Upon this Rock
I'll build my church up on this Rock
Upon this Rock

People who walk in the darkness
Are going to behold a great light
And those in the land of the shadow
Will all say goodbye to the night
And joy will fill the kingdom
For He will bring you freedom
The chains of fallen Eden
Will be shattered by His might
 
Unto us a child is born
And He will sit on David's throne
And the government will be
On the shoulders of this King
And He will reign forevermore
Unto us a child is born Every boot that has marched to the battle
Will finally be set aflame
And fear of the enemy's torment
Will rise up in smoke just the same
For He comes to bring you peace
His Kingdom will increase
He's coming to release
Every man from sin and shame Unto us a child is born
And He will sit on David's throne
And the government will be
On the shoulders of this King
And He will reign forevermore
Unto us a child is born And His name will be Wonderful
Countseler
Mighty God
Prince of Peace Unto us a child is born
And He will sit on David's throne
And the government will be
On the shoulders of this King
And He will reign forevermore
Unto us a child is born Unto us a child is born

When the dark closes in so hard
I can hardly see
And the walls of my fortress of faith
Crumble in on me
When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

When it seems like the end
Not a measure of strength to spend
I feel the arms of a stranger rescue me

Chorus:
With some unexpected friends
Never asking where I've been
Just a hand of mercy and words of love
Call me back again
Oh, it feels like home
With unexpected friends

A soothing balm for the wounds I suffer along the way
A fervent prayer giving courage and hope for another day
Through the help of my friends
Ones I may never see again
Seem like angels that were sent by heaven for me

Repeat Chorus

They looked at Him and saw a simple man
A carpenter with healing in His hands
They saw Him calm a sea and heal a dying man
They saw but could they really understand

They could not, They could not
Though they tried, they could not
He was just a simple carpenter but with healing in His hands
But could they really understand, they could not

They listened to the teaching that they heard
They wondered at the mystery of His word
They wondered what He meant, about a Father's plan
They heard but could they really understand

They could not, They could not
Though they tried, they could not
They listened to the teaching about a Father's plan
But could they really understand, they could not

So finally upon a rugged cross
They killed the man who would not suffer loss
And when at last they took what willingly He gave
He died, but could they keep Him in the grave

They could not, They could not
Praise God, they could not
And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave
Could they keep Him in the grave, could they keep Him in the grave,
Could they keep Him in the grave...

They could not, They could not
Praise God, they could not
And when at last they took from Him what willingly He gave
Could they keep Him in the grave, could they keep Him in the grave,
Could they keep Him in the grave, They could not!!!!

The city was Jerusalem
The time was long ago
The people called Him Jesus
The crime was the love He showed


And I'm the one to blame
I caused the pain
He gave Himself,
The day He wore my crown


He brought me love that only He could give
I brought Him cause to cry
And though He taught me how to live

I taught Him how to die
And I'm the one to blame
I caused all the pain He gave Himself,
The day He wore my crown


He could have called His Holy Father and said
"Take Me away, please, take Me away"
He could have said
"I'm not guilty, and I'm not going to stay.
I'm not gonna pay.







He could have, but He walked right through the gate 갈보리의 언덕에

and then on up to the hill 올라섰을 때

And as He fell beneath the weight 그 아버지께 외치기를

He cried, "Father, not My will !" "아버지 뜻대로!

And I'm the one to blame 뜻대로 하소서..."

I caused all the pain 가시관 쓰신

He gave Himself 그 날에

The day He wore my crown 그 몸을 주셨다







And I'm the one to blame 날 위해 나를 위하여

I caused all the pain 귀하신 몸이

He gave Himself 십자가에

The day He wore my crown 달리시었다

The day He wore my crown ... 못 박히시었다....

I wondered just how long I might have wondered
About the things of God, the way to life
I might have gone on wondering forever
