Chorus:
The Lord is near to those who call on Him
He is not far as we have made Him 		
He’s not a stranger to all our sufferings
He said “come now hurry all you weary”
To give them rest from burdens too heavy  
To wipe a tear from all hearts in misery

V1:
Sojourner and no place to stay
Abandoned, doubted and friends betrayed 	
Yet He arose to grant the way 
to eternity
A friend to the tax collectors, 
A comfort for the adulterers,
An advocate for the sinners 
Of whom I am chief

V2:
He guided all those questioning, 
goodness on earth He was spreading, 	
He tasted death while bearing 
The shame of sinners 
His night of death, prayed earnestly
Father willing, take this from Me
Sweat drops of blood from agony
All for my sake

V3: 
When I was thirsty He quenched me 
When I was naked He clothed me
When abandoned He sheltered me 
From all my fears 				
So how can I not be trusting
His love I'll never be doubting 
A Father who is so loving 
Even to death

The Lord is Near - الرب قريب - Translation

REFRAIN:

O MY MASTER HOW CRUEL WAS THE SHAMEFUL DEATH OF THE CROSS
BEFORE IT CARRIED YOU, YOU CARRIED IT
O RIGHTEOUS ONE

1)YOU ASKED FOR WATER, YOU TASTED VINEGAR
AND ALL BITTERNESS,
YOUR BLOOD FLOWED FROM YOUR BODY,
TO SAVE ALL SINNERS

2) UPON THE CROSS, O MY BELOVED
YOU SUFFERED MUCH PAIN
BY THOSE WHO CAUSED YOUR SUFFERING 
YET YOU FORGAVE THEIR SINS

3)ALL THIS MY LORD, 
TO BRING ME BACK
IN YOUR PROTECTION, I’LL LIVE WITH YOU
AND YOU WILL COMFORT ME

4) OH THAT MY HEART, MAY TREASURE YOU
SO THAT I MAY ATTAIN YOU
AND LIVE SINCERELY 
IN SUBMISSION TO YOU

O My Master

(Every day at your cross
I used to come and talk with You
My Lord and God 
To You My Father, I reveal
All my secrets and stories
With no fear)x2

I used to think that I will never
From now on and till forever
Will not change and leave my place
Under Your cross
In my heart I always prayed
Your love remains in me and stays
Nothing will take me away
I’ll remain and pray 
Remain and pray 

When I grew with chains anew
I tried to call you
I tried and failed
Sadness and tears
Growing so near
With sin and lust and pride
In a world of vain & fear

And I wondered when I can
Return to You 
And how I will
Stay again under your cross
As a child

In my heart I always prayed
You’ll forgive me
And fulfill
My hearts desires that I stay at Your cross
And pray again

Oh 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

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

How Lovely

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2
(You left on the mountain  the ninety-nine sheep ) x2
(So eager yet patient, You searched left and right) x2
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope

(It was Your kind heart  with the emptiness You felt) x2
(You called for me “Where are you, O My beloved son?”) x2
(Where are you O poor one, I fear you’re in trouble) x2
Where are you, O My child?
Where are you, O My child?

(You found me in the thorns, You came to help me out) x2
(You held me with Your hands and saved me from evil) x2
(Your blood for me was shed from the thorns on Your head) x2
And stayed guarding me
And stayed guarding me

(Your shoulders carried me, You returned me with great joy) x2
(Your humble and gentle arms surrounded me with love) x2
(You kept me safe within the rest of the sheep) x2
Your heart now has comfort
Your heart now has comfort

(I am the lost sheep and You’re the True Shepherd) x2
(You left on the mountain the ninety-nine sheep ) x2
(So eager yet patient You searched left and right) x2
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope
You searched for me with hope

I Am the Lost Sheep

He Paid All My Debts

Original Song based on Psalm 121.

Lyrics:

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in
 
Verse 1:
He watched over Israel and He will watch over me
My God will not slumber, indeed, He doesn’t sleep
He’s the shade at my right hand, the sun can’t hurt by day
and the moon at night, can’t harm me in any way

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

Verse 2:
I have heard Your promises and believe they’re set in stone
but I forget I’m your daughter and You’re King on the throne
Sing my soul to the Lord of Hosts, Trust in the Most High
Through the hills and the valleys, in Him my hope lies

Chorus:
I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? It comes from Him
He made the heaven, earth and what’s within
God guards my going out and coming in

His Sweet Voice

Many years have passed by
And the Lord cared for me
Carried me everyday 
On His eternal shoulders
(And with His hands He holds me
Through the path of love He leads me) x2

Refrain:

Jesus the King of kings
And the Lord of Lords
Our souls are longing
To see Your majesty
(And see You with our eyes
O Lord You are so precious) x2

With His Love Christ embraced me
And my heart rejoiced
To glory He took me
To end all my mourning
(And Heaven will be for me
In the presence of my Redeemer) x2

Jesus the King of Kings 
And the wounded Lord
Our souls are longing
To be filled with the Spirit 
(And overflow O Lord
With your spiritual gifts) x2 

Jesus is coming quickly 
To take us on the cloud
And wipe away our tears
And end our troubles
(With everlasting happiness 
And all heavenly joy) x2
