Hear the sighs of the faithful.
Hear their wordless groans when the words are just unknown.
The oppressed and the burdened and the weary hearts with a faith firm as a stone.
These sufferings are short
These infirmaries are faint
Compared the glory of the saints.
That Glory now awaits.
Chorus:
Though I walk through the valley I fear no evil
The pain I feel softens me to the pain of people I don't know.
But still I go ...
These valleys fill up first with a revelation.
Even at my worse there is celebration
There is hope.
This I know, you work all things for good.
The trampled grapes of wrath in gethsemane where
Christ prayed all alone.
If it be your will take this cup from me.
But your Glory be shown.
A spirit holy , the forgotten god.
Whispers a soulful prayer, to the God who's always there.

Power in Weakness
02:37

This is a narrow road
I know my own weakness
But I've been praying he
would shake me free from this.
But these burdens cure my pride.
They serve to humble me
This torn within my side
It drives me to my knees
Chorus:
Your power is made best
In my own weakness.
On my own I'm frail
And my flesh will always Fail ...
My God never will
I'm such a feeble man
My sin is a laundry list
But his grace is sufficient (and)
I boast his righteousness.
I've watched the slaves of sin.
Be Baptized, sing sweet Amen.
I've watched a closet full of skeletons
Somehow be used by him.

Memory of Eden
02:54

I hear a whispering
A song inside my soul
A memory of Eden
Left behind
It's alive me
It's driving me
How could I know
As if a gift that I was meant to find.
Chorus:
It's calling me
It's drawing me
A memory
Of old
What was once
Will be again
When eden's sin
Looses its hold
Today we live & die by sense & flesh
alone
But once we would commune from the spirit.
He longs for restoration of his kingdom here
And over his creation our kingship
It's calling us
It's drawing us
Until we must give in
All these years
The serpent sneers
Your kingdom work still needs done
outro:
When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun

Resurrection and Reformation
Words and music by: Brock Lawley
Romans 8:12
I have been remade
His resurrection laid to death a worldly man
A reformation starts
Regenerates a heart, a life of faith in him
And now I will sing your praise
And now I will now obey
Chorus: And I will love you X3
Your children transforming,
Equipping, preparing to be eternal kings
A crowned inheritance,
Consummate Kingdom prince
A good creation sings
Bridge:
Your word
Your Law
It’s not a cage at all
Your will
Your ways
Prepare for ancient days … when
Your daughters and your sons
Inherit all you’ve done for good … forevermore
