Prevailing Love of God

The thief of joy it takes my soul
without light in this deep woe
I search and wonder for me to fill
something inside deep and still
It will not move it will not go
the pain inside is all I know

But through the dark a voice appears
strong and loud to my ears
He overcomes pain and sorrow
and brings forth a new tomorrow

My God my Savior, my Lord and One
Father, Spirit, and Holy Son
He sets me free for dreams anew
and fills the deep with something true

Lifts me up when all seems lost
and gives to me without a cost
My God, my Lord is here to stay
With perfect wonder and perfect way

From You oh God always love
Deep inside I look above
Forever now, forever be
My God my Savior within me

Keeping Faith

Lord of kings, oh God above,
rescue me with endless love.
Through Your Son I pray tonight,
that you my God within take flight.
In Your arms lift me so,
that on Your path I may go.

Nothing else will suffice,
I give you Lord all my life.
I refuse to doubt in Your will,
I trust Your love forever still.

Everlasting God I praise,
with these arms that I raise!

God of love, God of wonder,
in my heart forever thunder.
Hold me fast and keep me strong.
Forever Lord I sing Your song!

In my pain I look to You, 
to save me from my fall into,
selfish way and needless hurt.
Help me carry out Your work.

Hold me tight in Your hand.
Forever Yours forever and,
keeping faith I one day be,
the man for You, You see in me.
