1. Risen
I was a zombie, rotting dead flesh. Lifeless shell doing evil. Then God gave me what I needed to find to bring my soul to life.
Risen, renewed in mind. Risen with Christ.
My old sinful nature has died and my new life is kept with Christ. I am becoming like the One who raised me up. He is the Son.

I am risen, renewed in mind. I am risen, risen with Christ.
God gave me life.
You too can rise. Renew your mind through Christ.
2. Power
The King was born in Bethlehem and raised a Nazerene. The cornerstone begins His ministry in Galilee.
Power from above. Power to rule with love.
Prophet, teacher, savior. God's begotten Son. He heals the sick, the blind to see, the Christ has finally come.
Power, His story. Power, His glory. I'm not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ! Power. This is the power that brings us new life. Power. The mercy gate. Power. A new life by faith.
Persecuted by government they could not understand. How could this Jesus before them be both God and a man? He was crushed for our evil. Punished in our place. He died for us, He rose again. Receive His saving grace.
3. The Search
My search for you has come to an end. My hopes and dreams were not what they seemed. Christ is the truth and the way. I found out for myself. He lifteth me up and carries me away.

4. Overflow
The day of atonement has come and gone. Christ sacrifice sufficient for all. The only Son of my God above is my scapegoat. His love for us it overflows.
Overflow, God fills me.
When I was in a pit God lift me up. When I'm least deserving He shows His love. Jesus took my place on the cross. He came looking for me when I was lost.
Overflow, God fills me.
5. Things I Say
I am afraid I've let time slip away. Do you feel betrayed now that you've turned to clay?
Things I didn't say to help you find your way. I let you go astray, and now you've gone away.
If I had portrayed, would you have fallen prey? Reaching out too late, gone is yesterday.
On my knees I pray, help me learn Lord from my mistakes. Those I meet try to persuade. No more living a pale charade.
Things I always say to help you find your way. So when you leave this place, Jesus you will embrace!
6. Fearless
Study the word of the Lord, learning lessons taught. If God be for me who can be against this child of God?
Not by might nor power but by God's spirit. Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ has removed all fear.
Look at me can you see strength and boldness. I'm fearless.
God has never given me a spirit of fear. But of love and piece of mind and words for you to hear.
Look at me can you see strength and boldness. I'm fearless.
I will serve the Lord my God even unto death. And I will praise His Holy name, with my dying breath!
7. Imminent Destruction
Woke up this morning, shot out of bed when I heard the sirens running through my head. Turned on the T.V., saw my darkest fear. Imminent Destruction was finally here.
Spoken by the prophets so long ago, we should have seen the signs, we should have known. So blinded by our wealth, we are spiritually poor. Materials we worship will remain no more.
In the last days, like a thief in the night. World peace deception. Imminent Destruction.
So much I've never done, I'm too young to die. But the fear within me as I pray subsides. Although it's not your wish, Some will never see. I want to thank you Father God for your mercy on me.
8. Alive
Resurrection, Eternal life. I live through Jesus Christ. Because He lives in me I shall never die.
I am alive. To die is gain, to live is Christ. I am alive.
I'm saved by grace let God arise, let God arise in me.
Seperated from my sin as far as east from west. Be magnified in my body, whether by life or death.
For God so loved the entire world, that He gave His only Son. That whosoever believes in Him is covered by His blood.
9. Turn
Seeking Your face I'm in need of all Your grace. Patiently I wait for You to show the way.
My open wound, in my pain I turn to You, choosing to believe. You return my hope to me.
I will turn to You again, help me lay aside my sin. Take my shame and make me whole again.
More of You in my heart, solid from the start. Fill my cup, lift me up from this pit I'm in. I will turn.
10. Hunger
Hunger, a hunger in my soul. I hunger for your word, I hunger. Only you can make me whole. You satisfy my thirst, I hunger.
I have strayed from your will on this path I've chosen. I have closed up my heart but now it's open.
Hunger pains in my soul telling me I'm empty. Well I can see what I need, Your Word can complete me. Cannot move, cannot think without You with me. What I need you freely give me. Renew my thinking.
Here am I, come live inside.
11. C.T.G.
Disillusioned, by all you've seen. Men who tell lies and hypocrisy. You take all your pain, you stand alone. Struggle with life, peace never known.
Come to God, come to peace. Find real love, find real strength
Things of the past are leaving you scared, you have become bitter and hard.
No greater love a man has known, to lay down His life for you alone. For you are my son, dead in your sin. But you can be made alive again.
12. Stomping Ground
Stomping ground, I take the land I've found. I claim this place for God, so His word abounds. Where I tread, I'm Holy Spirit led. I stomp on satan's head with the word I spread. God is here, can you feel Him near? I can shout my praises to Him cause I'm feeling no fear.
Where I stand I'm taking back the land, because I stand upon the Rock and not on the sand.
I keep on stomping. You're on my stomping ground.
In my life, I'm walking in the light. God is in control and I feel alive, and so I live. I take my thoughts captive, subject my mind because it's not prohibitive. God controls, I took Him in my soul. The landscape of my mind Jesus calls His home. Think it odd? In my mind, He trod. My thoughts are not my own, they belong to God.
