v1
Open up the gates, open up the doors
And come together with the glorious king
You’re there with open arms when we run to you
The father welcoming his children in
It makes no difference who we are
We’re here today to sing your praise
Chorus
We gather together for we are one
From the east and west we have come
We gather together for we are one
In the name of Jesus we have come
v2
You’re our amazing God, welcoming everyone
We come together and it’s your delight
No matter who we are, no matter where we’re from
Let the party last all night!
We’ve heard the calling of your voice
So we will make a joyful noise
(repeat chorus)
We’ve heard the calling of your voice, so we will make a joyful noise
It makes no difference who we are, we’re here right now to sing your praise
(repeat chorus x2)
We are one

Verse 1
Jesus inspire us to be more like you
You who are equal with God
You humbled yourself to become fully man
Obedient to death on the cross
You are lifted high and honoured far beyond
Anyone and anything
Every knee shall bow in heaven and on earth
Declaring that you are the Lord
Because you are greater than all
Verse 2
We’ll work out our salvation with trembling and fear
With Jesus alive in our hearts
Children of God in a harsh broken world
Living and acting with grace
We can shine like stars in the darkness of the sky
As we hold firm to his word
And we can sing that we did not run in vain
Together we’re glad and rejoice
Because he is greater than all
Bridge
In the darkness of the sky we will shine. (x4)
Chorus
He is greater, he is greater, he is greater than every nation
He is greater, he is greater, he is greater than all creation
He is greater, he is greater, he is greater than imagination can conceive
He is greater, he is greater, he is greater than all

v1
Your name is high above all other names
Your glory shines for all to see
You are the only one the angels praise
The stars reflect your majesty
Chorus
You are Lord over all, over all
v2
You came down to earth to show the way
And you died so we could live
You made the perfect sacrifice
So that the Father could forgive
v3
Your love is stronger than my mind can know
Your mercy’s wider than the sun
Your truth is bigger than the atmosphere
Your power has beaten death and sin
Bridge
Lord of Lords, King of Kings, you are over everything
You have beaten death and sin with your love

Verse
Where can I go from your spirit?
Where can I run from your presence?
Surely the darkness will hide me?
Day turn to night time around me?
Bridge
Even the darkness is not dark to you
Night shines like day as your power breaks through
Chorus
If I fly in a rocket to space you are there, you are there
If I dig down deep underground you are there, you are there
If I sail across the ocean you are there, you are there
Wherever I go you will be there with me, you are there
Repeat verse
Repeat bridge
Chorus 2
If I fly in a rocket to space you are there, you are there
If I dig down deep underground you are there, you are there
If I sail across the ocean you are there, you are there
If I fly to the distant horizon you are there, you are there
Ride my bike in the country you are there, you are there
Take a train to see the big city you are there, you are there
If I climb to the top of a mountain you are there, you are there
Wherever I go you will be there with me
Wherever I go you will be there with me
You Are there

Joy Comes
04:13
|

|
When troubles are hard
And the days are long
And your children cry out to you in misery
But we trust that even though we walk the darkest path
Your light will overcome the dark at last
Joy comes, joy is coming in the morning
Hold on, this too shall pass
Dawn breaks after the storm is gone, so hold on
This is not how you made us to be
Created to be in community
But it’s true you’re with us as we walk the darkest path
Your light will overcome the dark at last
The time will come when we can meet together again
And we will praise, we will praise, we will celebrate
But until that day we still chose to say
That you are king and you are Lord, Lord over all
Joy comes, joy is coming in the morning
Hold on, this too shall pass
One day we will be raised with you in glory
We will hold on
We will hold on
So hold on
Hold on

1 Rejoice, the Lord is King! your God and King adore
We will give thanks and sing, praise him for evermore
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice
All God’s children rejoice
We will join the angels’ voices
All God’s children rejoice
2 Jesus the saviour reigns, the God of truth and love
His kingdom cannot fail, he rules both earth and heaven
3 Rejoice in glorious hope! Jesus the Lord shall come
And take his servants up to their eternal home

V1
Hello, it’s nice to meet you. I’ve been hoping for some time to get to know you.
Seems I was waiting for a long time, but now you’re here I can’t remember life without you.
I’ve known you since that wonderful morning
But God’s know you since before you were born
And in time, I hope that you will know him too
Ch
Because you were made with love
Fearfully and wonderfully with love
Flesh of my flesh, bone of my bone, with love.
V2
Esther i say thankyou to God who has miraculously made you
And the more I get to know the more I can see his fingerprints upon you
I look at you and what do I see?
Even though you look quite a lot like me
I know you were made in the image of the Father
Middle
Love the Lord you God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength

1
Dear Lord and Father of mankind,
forgive our foolish ways:
reclothe us in our rightful mind;
in purer lives your service find,
in deeper reverence praise,
in deeper reverence praise.
2
In simple trust like theirs who heard,
beside the Syrian sea,
the gracious calling of the Lord
let us, like them, obey his word:
'Rise up and follow me,
rise up and follow me!'
3
O sabbath rest by Galilee!
O calm of hills above,
when Jesus shared on bended knee
the silence of eternity
interpreted by love,
interpreted by love!
4
Drop your still dews of quietness,
till all our strivings cease;
take from our souls the strain and stress,
and let our ordered lives confess
the beauty of your peace,
the beauty of your peace.
5
Breathe through the heats of our desire
your coolness and your balm;
let sense be dumb, let flesh retire,
speak through the earthquake, wind and fire,
O still small voice of calm,
O still small voice of calm!

v1
To the corners of the world
Take the message to the people
There’ll be none who haven’t heard
About our omnipotent king
Every country, every town
Your message changing people’s spirit
Every village, every person
Soon will come to know that
He’s been given all authority
in heaven and on earth
Ch
Therefore Go! Making disciples of all nations,
Therefore Go! Baptising in his name
Therefore Go! Teaching his people to obey him
And he will be with you, he will be with you always
To the end of the age
v2
He has given us a cause
He has given us the courage
And he’s sent us on a mission
That his story must be told
Jesus’ name above all else
Transcending borders, crossing oceans
All creation genuflecting
And worshipping for
He’s been given all authority
in heaven and on earth
