Creator

Well I call upon my Father
In the Name of Christ Your Son
Let the streams of Your forgiveness
Come upon me as a flood

I give my love to my Creator
Reveal my heart unto my God
I bring my life before the Healer
For I know in You my shame will be thrown down

For with sin there’s separation
Yet by grace through faith I’m saved
Can You hear my spirit crying?
Come and wash my sin away

I give my love to my Creator
Reveal my heart unto my God
I bring my life before the Healer
For I know in You my shame will be thrown down

You’re washing me down!
You’re washing me down!

Well I call upon my Father
In the name of Christ Your Son
Now I’ve tasted Your forgiveness
My redemption through Your blood

At the Cross

Can I call you my friend
Come before you as I am?
Can I kneel at the cross
Is there grace enough for that?
Can I rise with the faith
That you died to take my place?
Can I stand and proclaim
That through you I’m born again?

I’m washed whiter than the snow
And I shine brighter than the sun
For you are in me, smiling through me
From the moment that I met you at the cross

Yes I can call you my friend
And come before you as I am
I can kneel at the cross
For there’s grace that flows for us
I can rise with the faith
That you died to take my place
I can stand and proclaim
That through you I’m born again

At the cross I found my freedom yeah
At the cross I found Your love again
Now I live for You
Safe in the truth that you’re alive!
And washed whiter than the snow

Glory

I met You when You called my name
Love surrounded and forgave
And then You filled my heart with praise
You are the light that seeks to save
A burning fire of purest grace
Showering the world with love

I will give glory unto you
I will give glory unto you
I give myself wholly, only to You

You stand beside me when I fail
Carry me through times of pain
For You are with me all the way
And when my life begins to fade
You’ll be the lamp to guide my way
Shining to eternity

Head Over Heals

Lord when I think of you
And what I put you through
I’ll never understand your endless mercy
To think you chose to come
Embodied in your son
To fall into the hands of your created

O feel my heart explode with praise!

I give you all my love
I give you everything
You are the God of heaven
And head over heels with me!
I know you burn with passion
When I call on your name
Your love runs as a river
Washing my shame away
Restoring my faith again - Jesus

How did you look upon
The sight of your own blood?
You even took the sin of those who nailed you!
For grace and justice meet
In him who’s chosen me
To walk a path that takes me onto heaven

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

I Love You

I love You, more each day
With all my heart can give
Worship, at Your feet
Lost within Your gaze

Just to know that You’re near
My treasure is here
And that You gave Your life
To save me
How my heart sings with praise
And calls on Your name
My saviour, my lover, my King
Come to me again

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

Rain

I’ve dreamed my life a thousand days
And rode upon the wave
Hopeless hope deceived me on the way
I’ve dressed in white, I’ve dressed in black
But some things I can’t change
You met with me and clothed me with your praise
And autographed my spirit with your grace

O it’s your rain, rain falling down
Washing my soul with purity
Your rain, rain falling down on me

Now I gaze into the Son
Changed but still to change
Hopeful hope is rising every day
You’ve made my broken pieces heal
Carved my bones and fashioned me
Claimed my soul and burned me with your name
And now I’ve moved to laughter from the pain

O it’s your rain, rain falling down
Washing my soul with purity
Your rain, rain falling down on me
O it’s your rain, rain falling down
Restoring my strength and dignity
Your rain, rain falling down on me!

I long to see you standing in your reign

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

Praise

Heaven opened and You came, to save me
You were broken and became, sin for me

No death, no hate, no shame
No slave again to fear
New life, new hope, new love
Your Kingdom coming near

I give You praise, and I lift my hands to You
All of my days, I will bring my love to You
Well I give my life as an offering
As a sacrifice to the coming King of grace
Jesus

You have risen from the grave, forever
Through eternity I’ll praise, my saviour

I love and adore You
And live for Your praise
In truth and in spirit
I long for You my King

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

Carry Me

Where was I when you needed me
To turn around and guard your honour
Where was I when you called to me
To step out on waters of faith

My heart cries for you
My spirit seeks
A new awakening from its tears
My inner being’s aching still
To walk again with you

When all the love I’ve known
And the truth you’ve shown me
Has fallen from my eyes
When the times I needed to feel you near
Are discarded from my mind
And when life’s path leads to a thousand tears
And sorrows, meanwhile
O carry me a while

Where was I when I needed you
Watering wisdom down with gold
Where was I when I called to you
Beaten and crushed with dried out bones

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

Joy

Moving with the Father Spirit and the Son
Flowing with a power that’s springing out of love
That You’ve shown for me when You poured out mercy
Choosing now to serve You following Your ways
Knowing that You’ve saved me calling me by name
To worship You, my King forever

O what You’ve done for me
You’ve set my heart upon a rock
Washed and forgiven me
And now I’m free to give You glory

With Joy, Joy
Lord I dance with joy
Jumping in your presence filled with
Joy, Joy
Lord I dance with joy
Jumping in the presence of my God

Your mercy’s new each day
And shining like the sun
You’ll be my song of praise
Until my race is run

KEN RILEY ©2001 Thankyou Music/MCPS

Shelter

When I’m lost within the world I’ve locked away
When the bubble breaks that stems my tide of shame
And when the light’s exposed the cracks within the pane
You bring me shelter
As I walk along the path that’s made of grey
And as I stumble blindly leading my own way
Your mercy carves a path to bring me home again
Into Your shelter

From the storms of my life, from my tears
Lord You give me shelter
From this raging inside, from myself
Lord You give me shelter

I know that You were humbled locked within a man
And overcome the sinful nature that I have
You understand the tribulations and the trials
Like no other
I’m longing for the faith that took You to the grave
I’m reaching for the power that brought You back again
‘Cos with salvation comes the promise that You made
To be my shelter, shelter…
