Music Monday: Monument

God, Your mercy reaches inside
Past the shadows, let there be light
So what was blind can see again
Open my eyes to what is hidden

For by the cross I stand as a testament
You made a better life than the one I left
And If I lose my way or if I forget
You left the empty grave as a monument

Well of God that never runs dry
Living water healing my life
Let idols fall from lifted hands
Let justice roll the songs of Heaven

Your love is a monument

Every blessing, every promise
A never ending fountain for my soul
Where I come from, where I’m going
Oh Monument of Heaven, lead the way back home

Music Monday: Standing in your light

[Verse 1]
I wanna hear the people singing
I wanna feel the walls come down
I wanna start a new beginning
Finding a freedom in the sound

[Verse 2]
I know the power of resurrection
I know the life within Your name
I know You’re the author of salvation
I will never be the same

[Chorus]
There is no fear when I am standing in Your light
Made me a promise, You are always by my side
My hands are lifted to the One who changed my life
I’m only free when I am standing in Your light
Standing in Your light
Standing, standing
Standing in Your light
Standing, standing

[Verse 3]
I see the chains around us breaking
I see Your people unashamed
I see revival in the making
All for the glory of Your name

[Bridge]
Spirit burning bright (Burning bright)
With me through the night
Making all things right (All things right)
Standing in Your light
Spirit burning bright
With me through the night
Making all things right
Standing in Your light

Music Monday: Impossible Things

I’ve been wondering like Moses in the desert land
I need you to part the seas and take my hand!
Through the stormy waters to the other side

’cause you do impossible things
you do impossible things
yeah, there’s nothing on earth beyond you x2

I’ve been sleeping like Lazarus in the darkened cave
I need you to roll the stone and shout my name!
Through the darkness on into the light of day

Water to wine, sight for the blind
You say the word and the dead will rise!
The lame walk around, the lost will be found
’cause that’s just what you do…impossible things

When I see You

I heard today that Audrey Assad is working on Sarah Kroger’s new album. It therefore seemed like the appropriate time to post this recording of Sarah singing Audrey’s “When I see You”…

[Verse 1]
You have loved me well, in a million ways
But my wounds are all I know
So I turn my head, and I hide my face
Too afraid to come back home

[Chorus]
But all of the doors swing open
When I see You, when I see You
You make my heart unbroken
When I see You, when I see You
And I come undone, I come undone!

[Verse 2]
When my fear comes close, and it robs me blind
Oh, how Your love provides for me
What a winding road, what a river wild
Oh, being Yours, becoming free!

[Bridge]
My eyes more open the closer You come
My heart unfolds like a flower in the sun
My fear grows cold in the light of Your love
My heart unfolds, I’m coming undone!…
My eyes more open the closer You come
My heart unfolds like a flower in the sun
My fear grows cold in the light of Your love
My heart unfolds, I’m coming undone!

Music Monday: Run to the cross

I’ve been listening to a lot of Sarah Kroger again recently. Here’s “Run to the Cross”:

You were wounded, pierced and broken, I have been redeemed.
You were bound for my transgressions.
I have been released.
Who the Son sets free is free, I am free indeed.

I run to the Cross, I fall in your arms, and I know I’m forgiven, and I know I’m forgiven.
I run to the Cross, I lay down my heart, and I am not forsaken, no I am not forsaken.

I had wandered far from mercy, still you searched for me.
Held as captive, to my failings, oh, you rescued me!
Who the Son sets free is free.

I am free indeed.All to Jesus, I surrender, all to Him I freely give x4
