Online Concert Lyrics
​
Welcome to my first online concert! Thanks so much for buying a ticket and I'm so excited to spend time worshipping with you all. I've chosen some old songs, some new songs and I've tried to include some of your song requests too (sorry that I couldn't fit all of them all in). Here are the lyrics for the evening...
​
​
1.We Sing Because He’s Won
Verse 1:
Through deepest valleys and heartache
Through sweetest joy and successes
Jesus we know that You’re with us
Your Church will sing
In all life’s fears and temptations
In all life’s highs and amazement
Jesus we know that You’re with us
Your Church will sing
Chorus:
We’ll sing praise to our Saviour
We’ll exalt Him forever
He’s the Lamb that was slain
Defeated the grave, our Champion!
We’ll sing praise to our Saviour
We’ll exalt Him forever
All glory belongs
To the conquering Son
We don’t sing ‘cause we’re winning
We sing because He’s won!
Verse 2:
Through darkest days of depression
Through brightest seasons of blessing
Jesus we know that You’re with us
Your Church will sing
When we’re alone and abandoned
When we’re together with loved ones
Jesus we know that You’re with us
Your Church will sing
Middle 8:
Through every battle
When all hope seems lost
The enemy will not prevail
Fear runs for cover
For Jesus the Victor
Has broken the power of the grave
The Church won’t stay silent
We’ll sing His praise louder
Our God is alive and He reigns!
Yours is the kingdom
The pow’r and the glory
Forever and ever amen!

2.Father of Mercies
Father of mercies, the God of all comfort
He draws alongside us in times of distress
If ever we feel that our God has abandoned
We look to the cross where for us Jesus bled
All our hope is found in You
You’ve delivered us from death to life
All our hope is found in You
Father of mercies, God of my life
Father of mercies, the wellspring of kindness
He comforts his people and lifts up their heads
Renewed by the depths of our Father’s compassion
We offer His love and the hope we possess
We share in the sufferings of Jesus our Saviour
He knows all our sorrows and shares our laments
Wherever He leads us this comfort will follow
We trust in the Saviour who raises the dead
We trust in the Saviour who raises the dead

3. The Father's Love
​
Verse 1:
See the love the Father's shown for us
He calls us Sons and Daughters so we are, we are
See the Father run with outstretched arms
We're welcome in his presence yes we are, we are
Chorus:
He loves us with a vast and perfect love
That fills the heavens, the heavens
He loves us with an overwhelming love
That fills our hearts, our hearts
He loves us!
​
Verse 2:
See the love the Father's given us
He loved us first while we were lost in sin, in sin
See the costly, precious sacrifice
He gave his Son to lead us back to Him, to Him
Middle 8:
There's no other love that satisfies my soul
There's no other love that comes and makes me whole
There's no other love that fights to bring me home
Your love outbids, Your love outshines them all!
​

4. Jesus is the Lord of All
All creation sings His praise
For by His word all things were made
He holds the keys to life and death
Sustains us by his very breath
Stars and galaxies were made,
For the glory of His name.
Earth and Heaven declare His ways,
O Christ, the matchless King, be praised!
Chorus:
Jesus is the Lord of all
Jesus is the Lord of all
You're the one we bow before
Jesus is the Lord of all
Verse 2:
He left his throne and crown behind
To stoop so low that he would die
The Lord of all was crucified,
His hands were pierced instead of mine
But death could not contain the Christ,
For Jesus rose in power to life,
He claims the church for which he died,
To reign with Him, his spotless Bride
Middle 8:
A day will come when wars will cease
When nations stand in unity
Every voice will sing to Him
Our great victorious King of Kings
Chorus 2:
Jesus is the Lord of all
Jesus is the Lord of all
You're the one our hearts adore
Jesus is our all in all

5. Who You say I am
Who am I that the highest King
Would welcome me
I was lost but He brought me in
Oh His love for me
Oh His love for me
​
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I'm a child of God
Yes I am
​
Free at last
He has ransomed me
His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin
Jesus died for me
Yes He died for me
​
Who the Son sets free
Oh is free indeed
I'm a child of God
Yes I am
In my Father's house
There's a place for me
I'm a child of God
Yes I am
​
I am chosen
Not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me
Not against me
I am who You say I am

6.You Hold the World
The earth is full of fear and dread
Confusion, chaos and despair
You’re sovereign even in this storm
Your voice brings calm and leads me on
When the darkness gets darker
Your light will shine brighter
Jesus hope for every soul
You hold the world
I won’t be afraid
I’m carried by your peace
I’m trusting in Your name
When fear and doubt is all I know
And I feel empty and alone
I run towards my only hope
Christ alone can heal this earth
When the darkness gets darker
Your light will shine brighter
Jesus hope for every soul
When the troubles are greater
Our song will grow louder
Jesus hope for every soul

7.Strength of my Heart
​
My Rock, in you I place my hope
When troubles overwhelm me
I cling to you my Saviour
My hope, is in your great love
Even through the storms
You hold me with your kindness
You are the strength of my heart
You are my portion forever
You are the one who satisfies me
You're my great hope
There is nothing on this earth that I desire more than You
​
Andi Gardner & Olly Knight 2016

​
8.In Christ Alone
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song
This Cornerstone, this solid Ground
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease
My Comforter, my All in All
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone! - who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe.
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied
For every sin on Him was laid
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious day
Up from the grave He rose again
And as He stands in victory
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 guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand
Till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand

9.All Things New
Verse 1
Lord we long for the day
When You come in glory
Riding on the clouds You will appear
And this Earth, full of pain
Will see restoration
War and disease shall disappear
Chorus
This is our Saviour
Reigning forever
You will return
And make all things new
This is our future
With Jesus forever
Where death is no more
You’ll make all things new
Verse 2
In the city of God
We will dance together
Singing an anthem of your grace
And the Church will be glad
We’ll rejoice forever
Your kingdom will never fade away
Middle 8
There’ll be new joy, new life
The world as it should be
All longing satisfied
In seeing You our Christ
There’ll be no tears, no pain
We will never die
Before the throne we’ll stand
Crying “Worthy is the lamb”
​

​
10.Holy is the Name
​
Verse 1:
There is a throne with rainbow colours blazing all around
There is a sight, a sea of glass and lightning crashing down
There is a song with multitudes of angels singing loud
Chorus:
Holy is the name of The Lord
Holy is the name of The Lord
Holy is the name of The Lord
Who was and is to come
Verse 2:
Behold the Lamb seated on the throne receiving praise
Behold His blood that washes all our guilt and shame away
Behold Him now, raised to life he frees us from the grave
Verse 3:
And there I’ll stand, before the throne as tears are wiped away
And there I’ll bow, as joy unfolds and wonder turns to praise.
And there is He, more beautiful than anything I've seen
Chorus 2:
Worthy is the name of The Lord
Worthy is the name of The Lord
Worthy is the name of The Lord
All power and praise be Yours!

11.Simple Devotion
​
You don’t ask me to strive
I don’t have to perform
By your blood, by your grace
I can draw close in love
I’ve come here to sing
To sit at Your feet
I’ve come here to pray
Knowing You hear me
My simple devotion
When all’s stripped away
Is “Jesus I love You”
Here I will wait
When my life can feel worthless
When I don’t see success
I’ll abide in the love
That brings life without end
Jesus, I am devoted completely, to You
​
Olly Knight 2020

​
12.Blessed be Your name
​
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be Your name in the land that is plentiful
Where Your streams of abundance flow
Blessed be Your name
And blessed be Your name when I'm found in the desert place
Though I walk through the wilderness
Blessed be Your name
Every blessing You pour out I'll turn back to praise
And when the darkness closes in, Lord still I will say
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your name
Blessed be the name of the Lord
Blessed be Your glorious name
Blessed be Your name when the sun's shining down on me
When the world's "all as it should be", blessed be Your name
And blessed be Your name on the road marked with suffering
Though there's pain in the offering, blessed be Your name
You give and take away You give and take away
My heart will choose to say Lord, blessed be Your name
​
Matt & Beth Redman 2002
​
​
13.Your Love for me
​
Through the storm
All I see is Your love for me
You hold me close
All I see is Your love for me
All my fears
Are washed away
In this love You have for me
In this love You have for me
All I know And all I see is Your love for me
​
Olly Knight 2020

​
14.Come Thou Fount
​​
Come thou fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing your grace;
streams of mercy never ceasing call for songs of loudest praise.
Songs of God's abundant treasure, sung by angel tongues above
Songs that tell the boundless measure of my Lord's unchanging love
I remember God's great mercy; by his help I've safely come;
And I know he will not fail me, but will surely bring me home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger wand'ring far away from God
and to rescue me from danger, shed for me his precious blood.
Through God's grace I am his debtor, daily I this thought renew!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter bind my wand'ring heart to you.
Prone to wander Lord I feel it, prone to leave the God I love!
Take my heart, O take and seal it, seal it from your courts above!
O that day when freed from sinning, I shall see Your radiant face;
Clothed then in blood washed linen, how I’ll sing Your sovereign grace!
​
​
15.Longing
In our hearts there is a longing
For our true eternal home
Where we’ll see our precious Saviour
And we’ll worship round the throne
Oh the glory we will see
Oh the wonder that awaits
Jesus, how we long for You
To see You face to face
Dwelling with our Saviour
Lost in wonder, love and praise
There’ll be no more grief or sadness
You will wipe our tears away
We’ll be clothed in righteous garments
When we meet You on that day
