You are the Potter

You, You saw my pain
You saw how I’d been hurt again
You, You felt my shame
You felt my heart’s cry again

Coz You are the Potter
And I am the clay
You know my heart’s cry
And You made me this way
You’ve been in my place
And You made it through by grace
I will do the same

Worth It All

If I only had a taste
Just one tiny glimpse
Of all the love you feel
For those away from You
I’d hear the call
And know it was worth it all

Make my heart beat like Yours
Make my eyes see the beauty
Such precious souls inside
Masked by the broken lives
Your image restored
I know that it’s worth it all

As I see what you see
As I know what you know
As I feel Your heart’s cry
There’s no stopping me proclaiming You
As I say what You said
As I do what You did
As I share Your heart’s cry
I know that it’s worth it all

Its worth it all
It’s worth every moment
It’s worth it all
It’s worth every moment
It’s worth it all
I know it’s worth it all

This Season Has Taught Me How

This season has taught me how
To care but not carry
To bear but not worry
To share but not drop
To lean but not squash
To clean but not wipe away
To shine but not hide the grey
To know but be ready to ask
To work but to love the task
To wait but not stay the same
To play but not cause a shame
To fight but with perfect aim
To forget but not from where I came
This season has taught me how

When God Calls His People to Pray

When I look
At this place
Seeing eyes in the crowd
Seeing doubts on their face
When I look
At this world
Seeing need in their lives
Wishing hope to unfold
I see hearts rising up
I see minds work as one
I hear prayer for the nation
That brings heaven down
And I know
We’ll see a brighter day
When God calls His people to pray

My Redeemer

"For I know that my Redeemer lives,
And He shall stand at last on the earth."
Job 19:25 NKJV

For now this is how I exist
Within a barren land, a wilderness
I look across the plain
No sign of coming rain
Not seeing any change
Not for now
Not for now

But I will sing to the Lord
Lift my voice, strike a chord
With my hands open wide
Let it flow from the inside
I know He will stand
He will take His command
Yes I know my Redeemer lives!

For now this is where I belong
No answers for why things are wrong
Just a promise He’s near
That there’s no need to fear
And there’s purpose I’m here
It’s enough
It’s enough

So I will sing to the Lord
Lift my voice, strike a chord
With my hands open wide
Let it flow from the inside
I know He will stand
He will take His command
Yes I know my Redeemer lives!

He will stand
He will stand
I am safe in His hands
He will stand
He will stand
I know my Redeemer lives!

Like You

Do I look like You Daddy? What do they say?
Do I talk like You, walk like You?
Act in Your ways?
When they see me walk in
Do they say “Just like Him”?
That’s all I want them to say

How many times
Have I broken the line
Have I strayed from the way
When You’ve asked me to stay?
How many thoughts
Have been far from Your plans
When I know just to wait in Your hands

Make me like You, make me like You
Make me like You, grace my life (repeat)

Do I love like You Daddy? Does my heart beat the same?
Will all those around me
Know why you came?
When my motives are checked
Will I find no regret?
Worthy to carry Your Name

How many times
Have I broken the line
Have I strayed from the way
When You’ve asked me to stay?
How many thoughts
Have been far from Your plans
When I know just to wait in Your hands

Make me like You, make me like You
Make me like You, grace my life (repeat)
Make me like You

Can We Start Over?

Here am I
Asking why
Why did you choose to move this way?
How could I
Question why?
What do I want You to say?
Why all the tears and pain
If no-one will declare Your name?
How could You be King through it all?
Why all the broken dreams?
What does it really mean
To take up the cross and follow You?
Come and take my hand
Lead me to the Promised Land
Can we start over again?
