How lovely it is to get together in love our Lord teaches us
When two meet in my name together
I will always be in between their gather

(O Lord come now and join us here
We ask you to come and give us cheer
Fill us with joy from your Holy Spirit
And peace no riches can provide) (2x)


The Lord is here always with us
How lovely he is, how content we are,
We talk to him and he always listens
He'll always be with us in us

(O Lord come now and join us here
We ask you to come and give us cheer
Fill us with joy from your Holy Spirit
And peace no riches can provide) (2x)

How Lovely

No don't leave me alone,

And don't leave me alone
in the midst of this darkness 
Let Your bright face guide me
O Lord unto peace

(I am O Lord without You
nothing at all) x2
(So take my right hand O Lord

And don't leave me alone
but hear my prayers
And be there for me dear Lord 
for the rest of my life

(I am O Lord without You
nothing at all) x2
(So take my right hand O Lord
and guide me, in Your way forever) x2

And don't leave me alone
because of my sins
But forgive me O Lord
and accept my repentance

nothing at all) x2

and guide me, in Your way forever) x2

No don't leave me alone
in the midst of this world 
But come quickly O Lord 
and take me to Heaven

nothing at all) x2
(So take my right hand O Lord
and guide me, in Your way forever) x2

No Don’t Leave Me Alone

Once I wandered so far away
from my Good Savior Jesus.
He came to me, He who saved me,
and called for me to return.

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Cruel thorns left my feet to bleed out,
wounds and agony unparalleled. 
I heard the Voice call out to me, 
“Thou art in error, return.”

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Never did I ever care to
heed to Him, nor to His words. 
Therefore I walked away with His
warnings of pain in contempt.

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

My path grew ever more treacherous,
menacing darkness has prevailed. 
I cried in my profound anguish: 
“Where is Thy delightful Face?”

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

My grief has exceeded limits
due to my straying away. 
Desolated, I requested:
“O my Savior! Come to me!”

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Straightaway, a light shone brightly,
O how radiant it was!
My tender Redeemer with a 
smile appeared to my aid.

His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away. 
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

You’re the True Shepherd

I place my soul into Your hands,
My Lord Jesus Christ
Lead me ‘cause I depend on You, 
Lead me and I’ll serve You 
Please be my guide in every way,
Be my guard I won’t go astray 
Sanctify my heart and my needs, 
Until I see You Lord

(As You have always said
O source of all goodness) 2x
Come unto Me O you weary, 
Come unto Me and you’ll find rest
Come unto Me I am the Way,
I am the Truth and Life

When my life gets filled with worries
And darkness overwhelms
The clouds will be dispersed away
By You O Prince of Peace
You are my shield You are my hope,
You are my strength You are my goal
You are the perfect love O Lord,
Of whom then shall I fear?

(As You have always said
O source of all goodness) 2x
Come unto Me O you weary, 
Come unto Me and you’ll find rest
Come unto Me I am the Way,
I am the Truth and Life

You are my Shepherd I’ll not want,
Lead me to still waters
Restore my soul I’m calling You,
Lead me to righteousness
Though I walk through the Death Valley,
With You I will fear no evil
You are my comfort staff and rod,
All the days of my life

(As You have always said
O source of all goodness) 2x
Come unto Me O you weary, 
Come unto Me and you’ll find rest
Come unto Me I am the Way,
I am the Truth and Life

Come take your cross and follow Me,
Fear not I am with thee
Cheer up I’ve overcome the world, 
Your tears I’ll wipe away
I showed you My love on the cross,
And if You’re faithful unto death
I will give you eternal life,
Come now and follow Me

(As You have always said
O source of all goodness) 2x
Come unto Me O you weary, 
Come unto Me and you’ll find rest
Come unto Me I am the Way,
I am the Truth and Life

I Place my Soul into Your Hands

Have you seen Him?
The one I love
Have you seen Him
The Holy Man
Have you heard Him?
His gentle voice
Have you heard Him?
The great I Am

I am dark but 
I am lovely 
Among the thorns I am 
His rose and lily
His banner over me 
Is love and grace
And nothing gives me joy
Like His tender face 

Have you seen Him?
The one I love
Have you seen Him
The Holy Man
Have you heard Him?
His gentle voice 
Have you heard Him?
The great I Am

Come and meet Him
Sit at His feet
Drink in His beauty
It set me free
I was wounded 
Broken and empty
But His spirit
Rushed in and filled me 
I was waiting 
For life and healing 
But His sweet eyes alone
Restored my feeling 

Have you seen Him?
The one I love
Have you seen Him
The Holy Man
Have you heard Him?
His gentle voice 
Have you heard Him?
The great I Am

The oil I poured on Him
Could not consume
His sweet aroma
It filled the room

Have you seen Him?
The one I love
Have you seen Him
The Holy Man
Have you heard Him?
His gentle voice 
Have you heard Him?
The great I Am

Have You Seen the One I Love

You're my protector
From all that is evil
You hold me by the right hand
My heart with You rejoices

(R) You're the true Shepherd
You carry me on Your shoulders
You take me to green pastures
Your love is overwhelming

You're always with me
You will never leave me
Your voice is within me
"Do not fear, My Child"

You will elevate me
In the midst of my suffering
You strengthen my weakness
You are my true fortress

You will support me
In times of tribulations
Your hand guides me
Doing good for me

You're the True Shepherd (Music by Tamer Mahrous)
