Your Love Feels Like Heaven

Lord, You've searched me and known me
You know when I rise up
Ev'ry step that I'm taking
Ev'ry word that's on my tongue

If I take the wings of the morning
If I fly away
Even there, You shall lead me
To You, the night shines as day

Falling in love with You, Lord
You've gotten under my soul
Ten thousand words aren't enough
To say, "Your love feels like heaven
You are heaven to me

Breath o'er me, banner of breath
Strum my heartstrings with Your words
I lift up my soul to bless
I'm falling in love with You more

Once Again


Once again, my God, once again
Once again, Jesus, I need

Just to touch the hem of Your garment,
Just to feel Your pow'r flow into me,
To know You'll look for me in a crowd
Just to speak to me

Jesus, I need once again

Wraps earth and sky

splashing my family
and God is laughing

Moon-struck on this night
million stars fill the sky
and God's humming

There Is A Way (Isaiah 30:12)

Out of my troubles,
There is a way.
Out of my sorrows,
There is a way.
Jesus has promised,
He is the way-

He gives light to see,
He directs my feet,
And shows me the way.

Through every valley,
There is a way.
Through every wild sea,
There is a way.
Jesus has promised,
He is the way-

He gives light to see,
He directs my feet,
And shows me the way.

Help me to hear You,
Confusion’s loud.
Help me stay near You,
Your voice surrounds.
Jesus is faithful,
The promised way-

He gives light to see,
He directs my feet,
And shows me the way.
