G Capo 6
        G        Em  
The day is near,
        C               D
and Jesus is returning.
                  G          Em
We’d be ready for Him,
        C      Am    D
And we would say - 

 G         Em
Lord, I want to be 
 C                       D
ready for Your coming!
             G           Em
With a waiting heart for You – 
   C             D
daily overcoming!
 C          D
Grow in me! 
  Bm          Em
Take the ground Lord,
   C                
I want to be ready – 
 D               G
when you come!

As we wait for Him,
We must pursue together,
Be revived every day,
So Lord, today -

The day is near (EYPC 2025)

1. Are You the One who came from heav’n?
The mighty God who suffered the curse of sin and died,
And they pierced Your side.
Rose from the grave, You’re ever new;
You’ve sown in me the seed of life that grew
From sinner, poor and blind
To New Jerusalem.

CHORUS: 
I love You more
With all my heart, with all my soul,
(Oh, Love divine)
With all my strength, with all my mind;
Sweet, sweet repose.

2. Are You the One my heart has known?
Are You the One, my spirit has richly grown to love?
Oh come, Beloved
And with my lips, shall I confess
That deep in You my heart found rest
And peace as ocean’s depth?
Oh, fill me with Your breath!

Sweet, Sweet Repose

Lord, I Don't Want to Love the World

Ako ay Pinili (Tagalog version of I Know I’m Chosen)

1. Hinirang ng Ama nung una pa, 
Sa karamihan ay nakita N’ya.
Di gawang kaya, ni pagsisikap
Kundi’y habag Nya’t pag-ibig, walang-hanggan.

Chorus:
O biyaya’t habag
Na mahagkan Niya ang tulad nating salat;
‘Sina-ayos N’ya ang lahat,
Kanyang paghirang ay di-mapantayan.
Sa’ Kanyang dunong at layong walang hanggan. (Aleluyah!)
Ako’y pinili, sa pag-ibig hinirang.

2. Gaya ni Jacob na marupok,
Ngunit batid N’ya ang ating daan.
No’y mandaraya, ngayo’y biyaya
Buhay may saysay, atin nang natunton.

3. Itinakda tayong Kanyang anak,
Pinagpalang maging Kanyang galak. 
Noo’y pinili, ngayon ay binihag—
Siya ay susundan, magpasawalang-hanggan.

Transformed and Built Up
Capo 2

Intro: D Bm F#m G

Stanza 1:
D A
Jesus, I confess
G A
That I only needed You for blessing.
D A
Now I realize,
G A
All along, You need me for Your dwelling.
D A
From wrestling with You,
Bm A
Now I'm trusting in You,
G A
To make us a mutual abode—
Em A-Asus4
Our dream on that pillow of stone.

Chorus 1:
D A F#m
Lord, at last, I yield;
G
Utterly subdue me.
D A F#m
Never let me win;
G
Gain me now, completely.
D A
I've seen You face to face,
F#m Gm D
How can I remain the same?
A
Transform to stone this man of clay,
G A7 D
Material to build up Your dwelling place

Stanza 2:
Suffering surrounds
And it seems the Lord is doing nothing,
Yet my peace abounds,
For behind what's seen is His dispensing;
Not fate nor by chance,
But His sovereign hand,
Compelling me to let go
Of what occupies my soul.

Chorus 2:
Lord, keep working in me;
Break through all my being.
All the cracks in me,
Are for Your saturating;
So, fill me day by day
As I gaze upon Your face.
Transform me, fully have Your way
G A7 Bm
To gain Your habitation in this age.

Bridge:
F#m G A Bm
Alone—an individual piece at most
F#m G A G
I know I’m just part of a whole so fit me now
A D-D7
With other stones

Chorus 3:
Bb A D
Oh, my destiny—
An eternal mingling!
God and man to be
An eternal building!
My Lord and Shepherd’s grace,
Foll'wing me all of my days.
Transformed and built up with the saints,
The New Jerusalem to consummate.

Outro: D Bm F#m G (x2)

Transformed and Built Up

Being Dealt with

1. All these years I've been struggling in vain;
Bitter trials have long squeezed my soul.
Everything just seems tangled and bleak.
Then at night, when on my knees,
With weary heart I cried aloud,
A comforting whisper I hear so warmly speaks...

"O My child, you're in My loving hand;
My heart is truly good for you.
I've prepared all the best—discipline, dealings too— 
For the one whom I've called and do tenderly love,
That you may be fully transformed for My house
(That you may be fully transformed for My house)."

2. Now I see my dear Lord is with me,
And He's sov'reign over all things;
Hence to Him I surrender my days.
Work on me as You have planned,
So that I may gain You the most!
What sweet compensation God is as He conveys...
