Lyrics:
I kneel upon this thirsty ground
Here in the desert I am found
My soul it thirsts for you
I know that you will lead me through
To where the river flows

I see your river flowing wild and free
My soul it thirsts for you, you're all I need
I feel the waters rushing over me
And I'm finally free, you've swept me of my feet
I'm going deep

And as the waters wash me clean
Your joy wells up inside of me
My sin and shame are gone
They're washed away, caught in the flood
You've set me free

(Chorus)

I'm going deep
I'm going deep
I'm going deep
I'm going deep into your river God

My sin is washed away
My sin is washed away
My sin is washed away
Within your flood

River

Songtext:
Wir waren tot, wir hatten keine Zukunft
Wir waren Schuld, wegen unsre Sünde
Doch Du hast uns erlöst, Du hast uns gerettet
Und durch Deine Blut werden wir befreit und heilig

Wegen Deiner Liebe, tanzen wir
Wegen Deiner Güte, singen wir
Wir sind so jubelnd, denn Du bist hier
Und Deine Freude zieht uns nah

Wir gehen ab, durch die ganze Nacht
Wir preisen dich, denn Du hast es geschafft
Wir waren tot, doch wir sind nicht mehr
Denn Du belebst uns wieder Herr

Jetzt sind wir frei, Du hast uns gewonnen
Wir sind eins; wir sind Deine Familie

Der Tod ist besiegt und wir sind befreit
Jetzt sind wir zusammen, wir sind eins
Der Tod ist besiegt und wir sind befreit
Du hast uns gewonnen, wir sind Deins

Du Belebst Uns

Lyrics:
I bow down here at your feet
Surrender all to you my King
Give you my hopes, give you my dreams
Give you my all, my everything

So let my life be all for you

Would you alone be glorified
Your glorious name be lifted high
Lord I surrender all
I lay it down, lay down my life
Take up my cross, to live is Christ
Lord I surrender all

There's nothing else for me
Nothing else but you

I Surrender All

Bring me back to where you found me
To the start of it all
That I might know that you are worthy
And show you reverence and awe

Bring me back to grace abounding
And love I can't comprehend
Give me the joy of your salvation
Teach me to worship you again

'Cos it's all about you Lord God
Yes it's all about you Lord Jesus
I'm amazed by your wondrous love
And the kindness you showed to save us

Bring me back to true surrender
'Cos I have counted up the cost
And you're worth it all, so I will follow
I'm taking up my cross

I'm coming back to the place of awe
I'm coming back to the place of reverence
Humbly you gave it all
Now you're worthy of all our praises

I'm coming back
To the start of it all where your mercy found me
And grace washed over all my sin
Where I bow down in awe because you are worthy
And give to you my everything

To a childlike faith that would trust my Father
And see you alone as my delight
An unquenchable thirst to know you my God
That I'd take up my cross and follow Christ

I will give you my life Lord God
Yes I give you my life Lord Jesus
I bow down before your throne
In your presence Lord I surrender

Bring Me Back

Verse 1
Just wait, child would you wait, come and wait for me
'Cos I long to gather you close, so come and wait for me

Chorus
You'll run and you will not grow weary
You'll walk and not be faint
I'll lift you up to soar like eagles
In me you'll find your strength

Verse 2
Just wait, child would you wait, come and wait for me
Be still and know I am God, come and wait for me

Bridge
'Cos I long to draw you close
And feel your heart beat against my chest
For you to trust in me alone
And know that I'm the God of faithfulness

Tag
Would you stay a while with me

Wait

God open my eyes, I wanna see you

Draw me into your presence
Show me your glory
Open my eyes
Would you lead me into your throne room
Up into heaven
Open my eyes

Show us your glory
Show us your glory
Show us your glory
God we want to see you

Holy, holy, holy is the Lord our God almighty
Holy, holy, holy is He who was and is to come

Show Us Your Glory

Verse 1
I know your longing, I know your tears
But in me there's comfort, so won't you come and draw near
I know your heart is yearning, you long for intimacy
But I too have walked this Earth, child, and all you need is found in me

Chorus
Do not awaken love
Until it so desires
I have a plan for your life
Just trust in me my child

Verse 2
I know you're dreaming, to walk along the sand
Watching the sunset, standing hand in hand
To hold her close to you, feel her heartbeat next to yours
To know that she's never gonna let you go, and as one you'll seek the Lord

Verse 3
I know you're waiting, to lift up that veil
And gaze into her loving eyes, as you can't help but smile
To put a ring on her finger, and for better or worse
To love and cherish her forever, until our Saviour returns

Verse 4
I know you're hoping, for the sound of a newborn's cry
And to hear your children laughing, and see the sparkle in their eyes
But these days will come, child, and even if they don't
Just hold my hand, child, and place in me your hope

Longing (Do Not Awaken Love)

Verse 1
Have mercy on me Oh Lord
By your unfailing love
By your great compassion Lord
Come blot out my stains

And wash me white as snow
Give me your joy again
And I’ll sing of all you’ve done
And lift up your praise

Pre-Chorus
Wash away my guilt before you
Come cleanse me of my sin

Chorus
Lord your ways are higher than our ways
Teach us to walk in step with your spirit
Lord your thoughts are higher than our thoughts
Come Lord and purify our minds

Verse 2
I know that I have sinned
I’ve turned away from you
Come cleanse me by your blood
And I will be clean

Grant me a steadfast spirit
And give me a heart that’s pure
Fill me with your presence
Let me draw near

Bridge
We hear the cry for purity
You’re leading us to a higher calling
And God we long for holiness
To follow you with a blameless heart

Purity (Higher Than Our Ways)

Verse 1
All I have to offer you
Are these two small copper coins
It’s all that I have left to live on
Still I’ll give you them with joy
I know that you’ll provide for me
You’ll give me all I need
So I will bring this offering
Lay it at your feet

Chorus
I have nothing to bring that’s of worth
That could match up to what you deserve
Still you delight in my sacrifice
So I will give you this broken life

Verse 2
Father you have loved us first
With an everlasting love
This is how we know what love is
Jesus gave his life for us
I love you Lord with all my heart
My mind and my soul
I will be a cheerful giver
For you’ve given me your all
