In remembrance

Help me Lord
Im a sinner to the bone
Give me a chance
And I will stumble and fall

You search me
For more than a melody
For more than a ryhme
For more than a tune, and I pray to you

That I remember, the hand that touched my blinded eyes and made it see
That I remember, the breath of life that breathed into my empty being
That I remember, that everything I give You is what You've given me
That I remember, that I remember

Lord if I forget You, let the music come to an end
If I forget You, take this gift back from my hands
If the applause, becomes my cause
Then let the new song come no more

If You're not in my voice, then let these words fall deaf to ear
If You're not in my heartbeat, then let it all cease right here
And if I can't take You with me
Then take me nowhere...

That I remember, the scars that paid the price for my broken life
That I remember, the outstretched arms of grace that clothed me in embrace
That I remember, that You spared my life, again and again and again
That I rememeber, that I remember...

If I forget You, let the music come to an end
If I forget You, take this gift back from my hands
If the applause, becomes my cause
Then let the new song come no more

If You're not in my voice, then let these words fall deaf to ear
If You're not in my heartbeat, then let it all cease right here
And if I can't take You with me
Then take me nowhere...

Lord again I plead to You, please catch me when I fall
And if your presence is not with me, then don't send me at all
And let the fire burn no more...

If I forget You, it'll be my very end
If I forget You, it'll be my very end
Don't let me forget You Lord
Please don't let me forget...

To Fall

No one else to rely on
No other option but to worship you
Here in your dwelling..
I'll let my words be few


And I fall, I fall...deeper
I fall, I fall... deeper

Cos this love is unfailing, so its the love Ill fall into


No point in pretending
I come before you baring all my sin
Create in me a new heart
And cleanse me from within


And I fall, I fall, deeper
I fall, I fall, deeper

Only You can satisfy
Only You can satify
Only You

Cos Your love is unfailing, so its the love Im falling into


Just a glimpse of Your glory
Will take my breath away
Give me grace, give me mercy
So I can see another day

Here I Wait

This song is inspired from the psalm, 130. When I read it I wanted to write a song on it, as it holds such a simple message with such honesty. The song also has hints of psalm 40, one of my favourite psalms, which carrys a simlar meaning to it. I like both these as they have notes of deep desperation and brokeness but at the same time, speak of grace and hope.

V1
In my soul lies a memory, so clear in front of me
Of the day it all began
On the long dark road, in the middle of the miry ground
It was there that I was found

And you see my transgressions
In your light my darkness revealed
And if your eyes saw me for the wretch I really am
Where would I stand?

Chorus
Full Redemption
Is this really full redemption?
Is it really true, I get it in full
Full Redemption

Love Unfailing
Love Unfailing
Is it for the taking, this love thats unfailing?
Love Unfailing

V2
I wait for you, my soul waits
More than watchmen wait for the morning
My soul waits, o for you
Just like the day, it all began

Chorus
Full Redemption
Is this really full redemption?
Is it really true, I get it in full
Full Redemption

Love Unfailing
Love Unfailing
Is it for the taking, this love thats unfailing
Love Unfailing

Bridge
Out of the depths, I cry to you
Hear my voice
Dont delay

Here I am weak
Here I am needing you
Come quick to save
Pave the way

Here I wait, here I wait
