Songs from ‘Scars’
Hebrews 4.12
The Word of God is alive and active
Sharper than a two-edged sword
Today if you hear His voice
Do not harden your hearts
Today if He speaks to you
Do not harden your hearts
Nothing in all of creation
Is hidden from God
Laid bare before the One
To whom we give account
DECLARATION
All Scripture is God-breathed, it’s useful for teaching:
rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.
That the servant of God may be fully equipped
for every good work. 2 Timothy 3.16-17
The Lord Heals the Brokenhearted
Psalm 147.3
The Lord heals the brokenhearted
And He binds up their wounds
How good and how pleasant it is
To sing praises to our God
How good and how pleasant and fitting
To praise His holy name
The Lord helps the humble in heart
But casts the wicked away
Sing to the Lord in your heart
With grateful praise
The Father Seeks Worshippers
In Spirit and in Truth
For God is Spirit, we worship Him
In Spirit and in Truth John 4.23-24
Coming of the Lord
James 5.8
We’re one day closer to the Lord’s return
When fire from the heavens it will burn
The hearts of many overcome by fear
As the coming of the Lord draws near
Satan tries to intercept your thought
He’s filled with fury cos his time is short Rev 12.12
His strategy is plain and it’s so clear
As the coming of the Lord draws near
The church of Jesus Christ under attack
But the weapons of our warfare we don’t lack
The battle is the Lord’s, its not unclear
As the coming of the Lord draws near
The battle lines are stark
Two kingdoms light and dark today, hey hey
From the Book of Revelation
A stunning educational display, hey hey
Don’t you be alarmed, don’t be deceived
The Man of Lawlessness will be revealed
And rebellion will occur, do you hear 2 Thes 2.3
As the coming of the Lord draws near
Red Red Blood of Jesus
1 John 1.7
The sacrifice of Jesus
The blood He shed on the cross
Was the price He paid for the sin of the world
His spilled blood and torn flesh
Is life to those who accept Him
It’s a mystery why He had to die for our sins
We can’t understand the suffering of the Lord
Or why this was the plan of a loving Father
We can’t comprehend sacrificial love
But through Jesus, but through Jesus
Salvation comes
O the red red blood of Jesus
O the red red blood of Jesus
O the red red blood of Jesus, It cleanses me
The Gift
John 3.16 Revelation 22.17
I look back on my life
A chequered life it’s been
I’m known as Mister Nice Guy
No one sees the turmoil within
Anne led me to the Narrow Path
Showed me the way
Jesus was my Saviour
I’m lost, lost for words to say..
Jesus born in a stable
The Saviour of the world
A love gift for humanity
The Fathers plan.. revealed
Jesus was born to die, oh my
Such a humble birth
But such a brutal death, oh my
Will I take it to the Cross.. all my sin?
Jesus died for me.. will I live for him?
We each live our lives
Like a checkerboard of chess
We’re known by our actions
Inner deeds we don’t confess
We ignore the Narrow Path
Choose to turn away
Yet Jesus, still the Saviour
And we’re lost, lost without a way
Jesus born in a stable
The Gift that keeps on giving
A love gift for humanity
Jesus died.. our sins forgiving
He offers us the Gift of Life
We turn our face away
(..we choose to turn away)
But on the day we stand before Him
What will we say..
About The Gift, the Fathers Gift of Life..
Jesus the Gift, the Fathers Gift of Life…
Jesus died for me.. will I live for him?
Life Is A Journey
Philippians 2.12
Life is a journey, filled with scarred memories
A canvas, a silver painting
A photograph of much better days
Look at my bleeding fist
See my pleading heart
Life is a journey
We’re right back at the start
Life is a journey
A broken picture, turned into a song
Wasted moments, lost horizons
Muddled thoughts seem all wrong
But look, a lamppost in the evening mist
Across the estuary, and off into the night
A distant moonrise through tangled trees
See the blue heron take flight!
But walk I do and walk I must
Through forests of cathedral green
Past stone sheds, barbed wire and rust
The pain dissolves into a dream
Reflections in a darkened window pane
Who is this pilgrim, I ask again
An aging vagabond, gone with the rain
See the sandpiper, the speckled wren!
The speckled wren
Life is a journey
Filled with sacred memories
A stolen canvas, a faded painting
A phonograph of much better days
Look at my bleeding fist
See my pleading heart
Life is a journey
Even though it’s been ripped apart
(But Jesus says)
Look at my nailed fist, see my bleeding heart
Your life is a journey, I’ve set you apart
Your life is a journey, I’m calling you apart
Life is a journey, I’m calling you to My heart

SCARS
Galatians 6.17
There’s a scar upon my face
A distant time, a distant place
Years have passed, years have gone
One more day, a troubled dawn
A troubled dawn
An unseen scar upon my heart
An unseen life ripped apart
Emotions sunk without a trace
All that’s left this scar upon my face
There’s a scar on the arm of my friend
She succumbed to self-harm in the end
But it’s not the end!
In the night I see a star
I play my life, play my guitar
Oh is heaven beyond my reach
As I walk, as I walk this lonely beach
Jesus comes as I retreat:
‘See my hands, see my feet
Put your hand in my side
Open your heart, open your eyes real wide
In Me you must abide….’
The story of your scar
Does not define who you are
A healed wound tells your story
Healed for, healed for God’s glory:
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Lamb who was slain
Jesus took my scars with his scars
Scars with His scars
Shake The Earth
Isaiah 2.19
When He rises to shake the earth
When He rises to shake the earth
When He rises to shake the earth
When Jesus Christ comes in all His glory!
The Lord Almighty has a day in store for all the proud & lofty
The arrogance of man is brought low, human pride humbled
The Lord alone will be exalted in that day, idols disappear
People flee from the splendor of his majesty.
Isaiah 2.12, 17-19
The sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven
And all the people will mourn because of Him
They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds
Of heaven: with power and great glory. Matthew 24.30
The mystery of lawlessness is already at work..
And the Lawless One will be revealed (the Antichrist)
Who the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth
And destroy with the splendour of His coming.
2 Thessalonians 2.7-8
For You Alone
Philippians 3.8
I’ve stood before such lofty mountains
And I’ve listened to such arrogant kings
I’ve sobbed myself into some sort of oblivion
Before my broken heart sings:
I’m blessed to be in your holy presence
Yes, to stand before your holy throne
I worship you my Saviour, and my holy God
I sing.. I sing for You alone
I’ve traveled through such gloomy forests
I’ve crawled across such windswept plains
I’ve wandered sometimes so aimlessly
Circle back, start over again
But I’m blessed to be in your holy presence
To stand before your holy throne
I worship you my Saviour, and my holy God
I sing.. I sing for You alone
Oh in times of crippling trouble
In days of dark despair
Burdened by relentless grief
Gasping for rarefied air
What friends deserted me, who stayed behind
Who was cruel and heartless Who was soft-hearted and kind?
I bow before such majestic mountains
And I dance before the King of Kings
I worship in the splendor of His holiness
And there my healed heart begins to sing:
I’m so blessed to be in your holy presence
Yes, to stand before your holy throne
I worship you my Saviour and my holy God
I sing.. I sing for You alone
I Will Give You Rest
Matthew 11.28-30
Come to me all who are weary & burdened
And I will give you rest
Take my yoke and learn from me
And I will give you rest
For I am gentle and humble in heart
And I will give you rest
You will find peace for your weary souls
And I will give you rest
My yoke is easy, my yoke is easy
My yoke is easy, my burden is light x2
I will be with you, I will be with you
I will be with you to the end of the age x2
