LYRICS FOR WORSHIP

1. You Will Never Run

You will never run away You're forever mine
You will never run away You're by my side
Oh oh oh
Verse 1
Love wide as galaxies love deeper than the sea
Countless as all infinity
Love like a shooting star tearing apart the dark
Shining for all eternity
Shining for all eternity
Chorus 2
You will never run away You're forever mine
You will never run away You're by my side
You will never run away You forever shine
You will never run away You're by my side
Verse 2
Love stronger than the grave
Love rolled the stone away
Rising with endless majesty
Love takes us by the hand
Love is the wildest dance
You are the joy and fight in me
You are the joy and fight in me
Bridge
Hearts open wide hands lifted high
Over the clouds up into the blue sky
Hearts open wide hands lifted high
Over the clouds up into the blue sky

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

2. Same Power
I can see the waters raging at my feet
I can feel the breath of those surrounding me
I can hear the sound of nations rising up
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
Verse 2
I can walk down this dark and painful road
I can face ev'ry fear of the unknown
I can hear all God's children singing out
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
Chorus
The same power that rose Jesus from the grave
The same power that commands the dead to wake
Lives in us lives in us
The same power that moves mountains when He speaks
The same power that can calm a raging sea
Lives in us lives in us
He lives in us lives in us
Verse 3
We have hope that His promises are true
In His strength there is nothing we can't do
Yes we know there are greater things in store
We will not be overtaken
We will not be overcome
Bridge
Greater is He that is living in me
He's conquered our enemy (oh)
No power of darkness
No weapon prevails
We stand here in victory oh
(REPEAT)

In victory yeah

3. Made Me Glad

I will bless the Lord forever
I will trust Him at all times
He has delivered me from all fear
He has set my feet upon a rock
And I will not be moved
And I'll say of the Lord

You are my shield my strength
My portion Deliverer
My shelter strong tower
My very present help
In time of need

Whom have I in heaven but You
There's none I desire besides You
And You have made me glad
I'll say of the Lord

4. Come Just As You Are

Come just as you are hear the Spirit call
Come just as you are
Come and see (come and see)
Come receive (come receive)
Come and live (come and live) forever
Life everlasting
And strength for today
Taste the Living Water
And never thirst again
