1.   Land of Hope

 

I am sitting on a mountaintop

With you

Far from all the noises of the city

A tender, quiet breeze

Is blowing in my face

And my heart and mind

Are still

Like a sleeping baby

 

I´m here with you

To listen to your voice

I´m here - to be lost in your eyes

For the people in the valley

I spend time on the mountain

In the quiet place ignoring all the noises

 

I´m here on the mountain

I´m here on the mountain

I´m here on the mountain

Getting a new view

A new view

Getting a new view of You

 

I´m sitting in a Land of Hope with you

All that is in me - is in you

I´ve come up to the mountain

I´ve ascended to this place

And with grateful heart I see

Who you really are

 

I´m here on the mountain

I´m here on the mountain

I´m here on the mountain

Getting a new view

A healed view

An expanded view

Of You

 

 

2.   God of Hope

 

God of hope

Take me into your reality

God of hope

Lift me to your higher views

Where I see You are always believing and working

For your kingdom

In my life

For your kingdom in this world

 

God of hope

Lift my heart out of pain

God of hope

I choose to trust you again

You will make a good way

Open up

And come in

Fulfilling all the promises

You've given

I reach out to you

You reach out to me

You never stop loving and hoping in me

I never stop loving and hoping in you

 

God of hope

Your goodness

Will wash over me

God of hope

Your goodness

Will wash over me

 

And I will see

The goodness of the Lord

In the land of the living

 

 

 

3.   Door of Hope

 

A land is before me with a dry hard soil

A land now bereft of bread and oil

The sun is burning all the plants and trees but night brings cold and nature's freeze

 

My life brought me here, into this waste of land

My hope slipped through my feeble hand

The path of my life led me to strange, rough turns and left me alone with painful burns

 

But I am here so come out my friend the Valley of Anguish is the Doorway of Hope

I see everything I know how it is

And here are you my love

I'll wipe your tears and give you back your song that was gone for so long

 

A land is before you with a fruitful soil

A land that is rich with bread and oil

So sing my beloved full of joy divine and know you are now forever mine

 

Forever you are mine

 

4.   A God full of mercy

 

A God full of mercy will stretch out his hand and touch you so you can have hope

God will not accuse you and not raise his hand

He gives you solutions in the middle of your life

You can rest in assurance it's perfectly safe

He's a shepherd for tired small souls

Come, just as you are in hope and trust

Your life is absolutely made for love

 

A God full of mercy

A God full of mercy

A God full of mercy

Mercy for you

 

Places with thorns and weeds inside you

He gives you a garden instead

He plants and he waters

And without your knowing

You stand there one day in amazement of Him

For you that were wounded and crippled and blind

Have now been enlightened and healed

For God takes what's nothing and brings back to life

And brushes the diamond who is you

 

5.   Take care of my heart

 

Jesus, take care of my heart

I stand with it here in my hand

It's tired and fragile, but yours

I leave it with you in your hands, in your hands

 

Jesus, take care of my heart

The world didn't treat it so well

But here with you I trust it is safe

I'm weak, take me into your care, to your care

 

Save me, Jesus, lead me home

Show me your love, melt my fear with your love

Save me, Jesus, lead me home

Show me your love, melt my fear with your love

 

Heal me, I'm here if you please

When I look in your eyes I find peace

You're the hope that I carry, that your flame shines upon

I will rest and keep close in your love

 

Save me, Jesus, lead me home

Show me your love, melt my fear with your love

Save me, save me and heal me

Lead me, oh, save me, save me and heal me

Lead me, heal me and save me, save me and heal me

Lead me, heal me and save me, save me, lead me and heal me

Lead me, heal me and heal me

Lead me, heal me and save me, save me, save me and heal me

 

Save me, Jesus, lead me home

Show me your love, melt my fear with your love

Save me, Jesus, lead me home

Show me your love, melt my fear with your love

With your love

 

6.   Tune me

 

Wake me up

Where I died Lord

Wake me up

Where I lost my direction

Wake me up

So I can see you

Wake me up to your heart

Wake me up

To your love again

Wake me up

To the ones that you love

Wake me up

To your Spirit´s voice

Wake me up

To your wind

 

I´m here seeking your eyes

I´m here seeking your face

I´m here seeking your heart

 

Tune the strings of my soul

Tune me

Tune me to myself

Tune me to You

Tune me to those around me like on a mixing board

I wanna love you well

I wanna love myself well

I wanna love people well

 

7.   You

 

You are my holiness

You are my righteousness

You are the rock that I'm building my life on

You are my everything

 

You are the source of my life

You are the bread and the wine

You have filled all my emptiness

Oh Lord You are my life

 

You're the lily of the valley

You're the fragrance in the temple

You're the silence and the storm

The lion and the lamb

 

You have captured my heart Lord

You have cleansed me from sin

Your mercy covers me every day

Love has made me whole

You are my life

 

You are my dearest friend

(I'm yours and you are mine)

You are my confidant

(I tell you everything)

You are the one that are living inside my heart

My Hope of glory

 

You are closer than my breath Lord

(I'm in you and you're in me)

You're my goal and my rest

(You're everything you're everything)

You're the air that I breathe and my source of love

You are my God

 

You are the song that I sing

You're the lover of my soul

You're the treasure that I've found

You are wonderful to me

Oh Jesus my love

 

 

8.   Deliver me

 

There's a story of a woman named Mary

She was floating in a lost identity

She was tortured night and day by the bugs and the flaws and the fissures in her life

Let me tell you, she was loved, she was loved

 

Jesus sees beyond what people see

He hopes where hope is lost, He never blames or burdens you

But with His heart of love, delivers

 

If you feel like you've lost your mind, you are floating in a sea of fear

You're tortured night and day by the bugs and the flaws and the fissures in your life

Let me tell you, you are loved, you are loved

 

Jesus sees beyond what people see

He hopes where hope is lost, He never blames or burdens you

But with His heart of love, delivers

 

Jesus deliver me, Jesus protect me, Jesus be my helper in need

Deliver me from the pit, gather me, gather me, Jesus hold me close

 

Jesus will deliver you, Jesus will protect you, He will be your helper in need

He will deliver you from the pit, He will gather you, gather you, Jesus will hold you close, hold you close

 

 

I will deliver you, I will protect you, I will be your helper in need

I will deliver you from the pit, I will gather you, gather you, I will hold you close

 

Jesus sees beyond what people see, what people see

He hopes where hope is lost, He never blames or burdens you

 

But with His heart of love, delivers when torn out of love

 

You will never let me go

 

9.   Abundantly available

 

Sometimes I lose hope

Faith in a thin rope

Pain is too strong

I feel I can´t go on

Can someone see me

In my despair

Reach out a strong hand

Lift me out of fear

 

Here it is

Abundantly available

Flowing from your death and resurrection

Here it is

So precious, unassailable

To these words I yield

By your wounds I'm healed

 

You saw my sickness

My chronic illness

You saw the pain

I lived through every day

 

You saw the shaking

You saw the fear

You looked right into

What I had to bear

 

Here it is

Abundantly available

Flowing from your death

And resurrection

 

Here it is

So precious, unassailable

To these words I yield

By your wounds I'm healed

 

You had me there

You had me near

When you chose to suffer

When you met the fear

 

The weight of my life

When I saw no light

You carried within

On the cross in your fight

 

Here it is

Abundantly available

Flowing from your death

And resurrection

 

Here it is

So precious, unassailable

To these words I yield

By your wounds I'm healed

 

Thank you Jesus

For your wounds that heal me

Thank you Jesus

For your wounds that heal me

 

Thank you Jesus

Thank you for your goodness

Thank you for your peace

Thank you for your love

 

It transcends the ache, the pain, the fear

Thank you Jesus

For your wounds that heal me

Thank you Jesus

For your wounds that heal me

 

Here it is

Abundantly available

Flowing from your death

And resurrection

Here it is

So precious, unassailable

To these words I yield

 

By your wounds I'm healed

Thank you Jesus

 

 

10.                 What is worship?

      

I asked, what is worship?

 

Worship is the sound of a lone bird

Early on a clear summer morning

When the haze rests on the forest pond

 

Worship is the sound of a quiet floating river

In a dark green forest

Worship is the sound of the wind through a gorge in the mountains

A little human soft hair that flutters in the breeze

 

And a majestic eagle hovering over islands and reefs

 

Worship is the sound of an infant

Who is chattering, fed and satisfied

 

And the sweet still silence of a flower that opens its petals

When the sun's rays are playing with them

 

Worship is a clarinet that plays beautiful tones for a tired soul

 

Worship is the scent of cloudberry leaves

And gooseberries on the edge of a hill

 

Worship is a caress from us to God and from God to us

 

There are so many things that worship is not

It's not superficial and fake

But totally, completely real and alive
