[English]

God of creation

There at the start Before the beginning of time

With no point of reference

You spoke to the dark And fleshed out the wonder of light

And as You speak

A hundred billion galaxies are born

In the vapour of Your breath the planets form

If the stars were to made to worship so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You've made

Every burning star A signal fire of grace

If creation sings Your praises so will I

God of Your promise

You don't speak in vain No syllable empty or void

For once You have spoken

All nature and science Follow the sound of Your voice

And as You speak

A hundred billion creatures catch Your breath

Evolving in pursuit of what You said

If it all reveals Your nature so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You say

Every painted sky A canvas of Your grace

If creation still obeys You so will I

If the stars were made to worship so will I

If the mountains bow in reverence so will I

If the oceans roar Your greatness so will I

For if everything exists to lift You high so will I

If the wind goes where You send it so will I

If the rocks cry out in silence so will I

If the sum of all our praises still falls shy

Then we'll sing again a hundred billion times

God of salvation

You chased down my heart Through all of my failure and pride

On a hill You created

The light of the world Abandoned in darkness to die

And as You speak

A hundred billion failures disappear

Where You lost Your life so I could find it here

If You left the grave behind You so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You've done

Every part designed in a work of art called love

If You gladly chose surrender so will I

I can see Your heart

Eight billion different ways

Every precious one

A child You died to save

If You gave Your life to love them so will I

Like You would again a hundred billion times

But what measure could amount to Your desire

You're the One who never leaves the one behind

Who am I that the highest King Would welcome me

I was lost but He brought me in Oh His love for me

Oh His love for me

Who the Son sets free Oh is free indeed

I'm a child of God Yes I am

Free at last He has ransomed me

His grace runs deep

While I was a slave to sin Jesus died for me

Yes He died for me

Who the Son sets free Oh is free indeed

I'm a child of God Yes I am

In my Father's house There's a place for me

I'm a child of God Yes I am

I am chosen Not forsaken

I am who You say I am

You are for me Not against me

I am who You say I am

I am chosen Not forsaken

I am who You say I am

You are for me Not against me

I am who You say I am

I am who You say I am

Who the Son sets free Oh is free indeed

You have come And we have found life

Everlasting

Now alive To know Your freedom

Never ending

You alone have made a way for us

In Your love You are life

I’m living in the light of my Saviour

Dancing in the arms of forever

I’m singing like I’m walking on water

You are life Alive in me

From greyest skies To living colour

You have called us

In Your life Your light uncovered

The world to see now

You alone have made a way for us

In Your love You are life

I’m living in the light of my Saviour

Dancing in the arms of forever

I’m singing like I’m walking on water

You are life Alive in me

I give my life to follow

‘Cause Your love is all I want now

You are life

You are life Alive in me

For all the world to find Your love

For all the world to see that You are God

Forever be lifted high

The One who holds the universe

And every beating heart across the earth

Dancing in the arms of forever

I’m singing like I’m walking on water

You are life Alive in me

I give my life to follow

‘Cause Your love is all I want now

You are life

You are life Alive in me

I take the bread of life

Broken for all my sin

Your body crucified

To make me whole again

I will recall the cup

Poured out in sacrifice

To trade this sinners' end

For Your new covenant

Hallelujah I'll live my life in remembrance

Hallelujah Your promise I won't forget

I'll walk salvation's road

With fear and trembling

Your way borne as my own

As Christ is formed in me

Hallelujah I'll live my life in remembrance

Hallelujah Your promise I won't forget

If ever I should lose my way If ever I deny Your grace

Remind me of the price You paid

Hallelujah I'll live in remembrance

You've been so so good to me

You've been so so good to me

Oh to think where I would be

If not for You If not for You

You've been so so good to me

You've been so so good to me

Oh to think where I would be

If not for You If not for You

You've been so so good to me

You've been so so good to me

Oh to think where I would be

If not for You If not for You

As far as heights reach from the depths

As far as east is from the west

So far Your grace has carried me

Until I see You face to face

Until at last I've won my race

Remind me You're not finished yet

Hallelujah

Hallelujah

Hallelujah I'll live in remembrance

For God so loved the world

Whosoever believes Will not perish

They shall have eternal life

I shall hold To the cross

I shall hold To God alone

For His love Has salvaged me

The passion of our Saviour

The mercy of our God

The cross that leaves no question

Of the mesure of His love

Our chains are gone Our debt is paid

While the guilty one walks free

Death would be His portion

And our portion liberty

Redemption's birth and relentless hope

As the weight of grace Crushed the face of love

And You bled and died for Your enemies

To woo us back from death and woe

A valentine to a faithless world

Every wayward heart You pursue us all

And in kindness call us home

And the plan is working heaven's near

For the kingdom comes To the heart that whispers
