praise


your love is amazing, steady and unchanging, your love is a mountain, firm beneath my feet. when i am surrounded,
your love carries me.

hallelujah hosanna

in this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation [syn. reconciliation; redemption] for our sins.  

hallelujah hosanna

he is good,
he is good,
when there's nothing good in me.
he is light,
he is light,
when the darkness closes in.
he is peace,
he is peace,
when my fear is crippling.
you are true,
you are true,
even in my wandering.
the riches of your love will always be enough

hallelujah hosanna

give thanks to the LORD, our God and King,
his love endures forever.
for He is Good, he is above all things,
his love endures forever.
with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm,
his love endures forever.
from the rising to the setting sun,
his love endures forever.

hallelujah hosanna

he brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and
burst their bonds apart.


hallelujah hosanna

For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me
For I am His and He is mine
Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No power of hell, no scheme of man
Can ever pluck me from His hand

 
hallelujah hosanna

But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and
with his stripes we are healed.

hallelujah hosanna

and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but
for him who for their sake died and was raised.

hallelujah hosanna





these words are true, not just on Easter, but 24/7, 365 (+1 for leap year).
