For a Fair Desire

--ZAO
Let me not exist for a fair desire sweet and fresh
Are my expectations of this inner strength
That yearns passionately
For the endowment of the Father
I sow in tears that later I shall reap in joy
Each drop that I sow will be a time of breaking [3x]
Come Holy Spirit empower Your creation
Through times of breaking the planting of tears as I am broken
Your presence grows stronger
I feel You with me upholding me through it all
Let me not exist for a fair desire sweet and fresh
Are my expectations of this inner strength
That yearns passionately
For the endowment of
Each drop that I sow is a time of breaking
A time of breaking

How Deep the Fathers Love for Us

How Deep the Father's Love for Us
--- Stuart Townend

How deep the Father's love for us, how vast beyond all measure
That he should give his only son, to make a wretch his treasure
How great the pain of searing loss, the Father turned his face away
As wounds which mar the chosen one, bring many sons to glory


Behold the man upon a cross, my sin upon his shoulders
Ashamed, I hear my mocking voice call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held him there until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life; I know that it is finished


I will not boast in anything: no gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ; his death and resurrection
Why should I gain from his reward? I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart: his wounds have paid my ransom

Tears of the Saints

--Leeland
There are many prodigal sons
On our city streets they run
Searching for shelter
There are homes broken down
People’s hopes have fallen to the ground
From failures

This is an emergency!

There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We’re crying for them come back home
We’re crying for them come back home
And all your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home

There are schools full of hatred
Even churches have forsaken
Love and mercy
May we see this generation
In it’s state of desperation
For Your glory

This is an emergency!

Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!

And all Your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home
