Desperation

Speak to me, Lord, let me hear Your voice
Show me Your way and fill me with Your peace.
Lord, I feel so lost and alone; I need to feel You near.
I cry out to You, Lord; show me the way!

I need to hear Your voice, I need to feel Your hand
Comfort me, Lord, and heal my brokenness!
Please, Father, come to me now.

What did I do? Why do I feel this?
Pain, uncertainty, guilt, sorrow.
Lord, I beg You to come and wash over me
Wash this sin away that I may be
In Your presence again, I plead.

I need to hear Your voice, I need to feel Your hand
Comfort me, Lord, and heal my brokenness!
Please, Father, come to me now.

I yearn to be with You, my Lord and King.
Where I feel no sorrow, no pain, only joy at Your side
I need You, Lord, I need to be with You
No more sin, no more broken hearts.
Lord, guide me home, safely to Your side.

I need to hear Your voice, I need to feel Your hand
Comfort me, Lord, and heal my brokenness!
Please, Father, come to me now.

Your all encompassing love, like a Father for His children
The pain You must have felt at the sacrifice
The sacrifice of Your Son, the death that saved us all
The joy You felt as He rose again and
Saved all Your sons and daughters.

Oh, Lord, I thank You every day of my life.
You saved my soul, You gave me breath
With the sacrifice of You beloved Son.

By His Stripes

By His stripes, He has paid for my sin
By His stripes, He has bought my pain
By His stripes, He has conquered the grave
And my flesh shall die, shall die so He may live.

May He live in me as I die to myself
May I leave my pain at His cross
That He may live through me.
May I open my eyes and praise His holy name.

By His stripes, I will die myself.
By His stripes, He will live for me.
By His stripes, we are saved eternal
By His stripes, it is complete.

I pick up my mat and declare the Truth
He didn't die for me to suffer
He died that He might live in me.
Through His love, might we live with Him.

Through the nails piercing His flesh,
Our sin is killed, our flesh has died.
Through the nails piercing His flesh,
Our pain is gone, completely conquered.

By His stripes, I will die myself.
By His stripes, He will live for me.
By His stripes, we are saved eternal
By His stripes, it is complete.

By His stripes, I will die myself.
By His stripes, He will live for me.
By His stripes, we are saved eternal
By His stripes, it is complete.
