Two Songs for Sunday, September 18, 2022: I Thank God & Soar

I Thank God by Maverick City Music

 MaverickCityMusic

 

 Wandering into the night
Wanting a place to hide
This weary soul
This bag of bones
And I try with all my might
But I just can't win the fight
I'm slowly drifting
A vagabond

And just when I ran out of road
I met a man I didn't know
And He told me that I was not alone

He picked me up, He turned me around
He placed my feet on solid ground
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
Forever free, I'm not the same
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
I thank God

I cannot deny what I see
Got no choice but to believe
My doubts are burning
Like ashes in the wind
So, so long to my old friends
Burden and bitterness
You can just keep it moving! (Hey, hey)
Nah, you ain't welcome here

From now 'til I walk the streets of gold
I'll sing of how You saved my soul
This wayward son has found his way back home

He picked me up, He turned me around
Placed my feet on solid ground
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
Forever free, I'm not the same
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
Oh, I thank God

Oh, I thank God
Oh, I thank God
Oh, I thank God

Oh, Hell lost another one, I am free (Oh, yeah)
I am free (Yeah), I am free
Hell lost another one, I am free (I am free)
I am free (Oh, I am free), I am free (Oh, I am free)
Hell lost another one, oh, I am free (Oh)
I am free, yes, I am free (Oh, I've never been so free before)
Hell lost another one, I am free (Oh)
I am free (Oh), I am free (Yes)
Hell lost another one, I am free (Oh)
I am free, oh, I am free (Oh)
Hell lost another one, I am free (Oh)
I am free (Yes), I am free (Hell lost another one)
Hell lost another one, I am free
Oh, I am free, oh, I am free
Oh, Hell lost another one, I am free (Oh)
I am free, oh

He picked me up, He turned me around
He placed my feet on solid ground
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
Forever free, I am not the same
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
I thank God

And if He did it for me, He can do it for you
If He did it for me, He can do it for you
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave
Get up, get up, get up
Get up out, get up out
Get up, get up, get up
Get up outta that grave

If He did it for me, He can do it for you
If He did it for me, He can do it for you
If He did it for me, He can do it for you

The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy
That means what He did for another, He can do it again
That means what He did for another, He can do it again
The testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of prophecy
Is the Spirit of prophecy
Is the Spirit of prophecy
That means what He did for another, He can do it again
That means what He did for another, He can do it
So we prophecy

Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay)
Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay)
Get up, get up, get up, don't stay there (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay)
Get up, get up, get up, c'mon (Yeah)
Get up outta, say, get up (Okay)
Get up, get up, get up outta that (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay), get up, get up
Get up, get up, get up outta that grave (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay), don't stay there
Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay), hey
Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave (Okay), say, get up
Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)

Get up, get up, get up (Yeah)
Get up outta that grave

He picked me up, turned me around
Placed my feet on solid ground
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
Because He healed my heart, He changed my name
Forever free, I'm not the same
I thank the Master, I thank the Savior
I thank God

 


Soar by Meredith Andrews

 Meredith Andrews

 

Here I remind myself what You said over meHere I remind my soul who You areYou said You won't relentWon't let go, won't forgetEvery promise You have whispered to my heart
As I wait, as I wait on YouI'm gonna run and not grow wearyI'm gonna walk and not grow faintRise up on wings like eaglesTo soar
I know with everything You're with meI know You're working as I waitLift me up on wings like eaglesTo soar
This desert holds a song I will sing, on and onYou're a river when the ground I walk is dryAnd You will set the crooked straightClear my path, make a wayYou will lead me from the valley to the heights
As I wait (as I wait)As I wait on YouI'm gonna run and not grow wearyI'm gonna walk and not grow faintRise up on wings like eaglesTo soar
I know with everything You're with meI know You're working as I waitLift me up on wings like eaglesTo soar
Creator, keeperLifebreatherYour name is greater than anything I've facedSustainer, saviourStronghold breakerYour name is greater than anything I've faced
As I wait, as I wait on YouI will wait, God, I will wait on YouI'm gonna run and not grow wearyI'm gonna walk and not grow faintI'll rise up on wings like eaglesTo soar
I know with everything You're with meI know You're working as I waitLift me up on wings like eaglesTo soarTo soarI will soar
