Without love
Every tear
Falls on dry ground
Under a scorching sun
Left without a trace
Grace holds
Every tear
In His hand
Never forgets
Who you are
He remembers
You are
His child

Fully known
Who could count every ocean drop
Or hold each snow flake fallen
Who could watch every new babe born
Or number the hairs upon each head
The wonder of it all
His mystery displayed for us to see
Such beauty has drawn me in
To taste and see
To behold in part
What one day
Will be fully known
When God in all His mercy
Seated upon His throne
Will finally take me home
Beauty for ashes
Out of the ashes
Burnt along these ancient banks
A stone of beauty will rise
Precious and filled with glory
Placed into a royal crown
Shining with the majesty of a King
No darkness hides His splendour
No darkness will cover His land
The purest river flows
All who drink from His eternal cup
Will live
Beginning and End
You hold my world
Fragile in your hand
I am whole
Lifted up
Upon love’s thermals
I rise
Soaring upon
Hope’s promises
Confident
You will finish
What you began
Through the storm
I see you through the storm
I’m waiting for the dawn
To rise upon your mercy
To soar upon your grace
You give me eyes of grace to see
With faith your eyes of love for me
You never take your eyes off me
You’re always wanting me to see
Your perfect love poured out in me
Jesus
When I take my eyes off you
Your faithfulness is always true
Helping me to always see
You never take your eyes off me
Your perfect love poured out in me
Jesus
I see you through the storm
I’m waiting for the dawn
To rise upon your mercy
To soar upon your grace
Born to soar
Ground under a burden never to be carried
Carried upon wings that never take off
This flightless bird will never rise above the mountains
Nor feel the thermals beneath its wings
This flightless bird will never soar above the heavens
Nor see the rush of vision beyond the sky
It knows no rest for it has no resting place
Its wings of worry come to cover us all
They are driven by fear outside perfect love
With eyes of faith we mount up on wings of eagles
With eyes of faith perfect love drives out every fear
Final breath
The last will and testament
What will be written on your epitaph
What will be remembered
A life lived without regret
Having all shame and nakedness covered
Eclipsed and transfigured
Clothed with the eternal
With eternity in your heart
Fully realised
No more waiting
No more time
Where finally
It is finished
Heaven in my heart
You send waves of grace from your throne
They wash over me again and again
Breaking into the deeper recesses
The places that belong to you
To know I am exclusively yours
Where there is no other kiss like yours
No other love that compares
To the beauty and wonder
Of being at home
With heaven in my heart
Alfa and Omega
At the beginning or the end
You are faithful all the way through
You stand true
Always keeping your word
Never changing Your mind
Never giving up
Your promises are life and light to my soul
Keeping me close
To know You
Alfa and Omega
Take my breath away
So many days of old
Have slipped away untold
To be honoured and remembered
Or forgotten with certain regret
How many moments will take your breath away
Before you breathe your final breath
Surely life isn’t found in how many breaths you take
But is found in who fills every breath
