How Can I Keep From Singing

by Chris Tomlin

Lyrics

Verse 1
There is an endless song, echoes in my soul
I hear the music ring
And though the storms may come, I am holding on
To the rock I cling

Chorus
How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough, how amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King, and it makes my heart want to sing

Verse 2
I will lift my eyes in the darkest night
For I know my Savior lives
And I will walk with You, knowing You’ll see me through
And sing the songs You give

Verse 3
I can sing in the troubled times, sing when I win
I can sing when I lose my step and fall down again
I can sing ’cause You pick me up, sing ’cause You’re there
I can sing ’cause You hear me, Lord, when I call to You in prayer
I can sing with my last breath, sing for I know
That I’ll sing with the angels and the saints around the throne

Ending
Want to sing, want to sing, want to sing
I am loved by the King, and it makes my heart…
Want to sing
I can sing
I can sing

Lord Have Mercy

by Michael W. Smith

Lyrics

Verse 1
Jesus I’ve forgotten
The words that You have spoken
Promises that burned within my heart
Have now grown dim
With a doubting heart I follow
The paths of earthly wisdom
Forgive me for my unbelief
Renew the fire again

Chorus
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me
Lord have mercy
Christ have mercy
Lord have mercy on me

Verse 2
I have built an altar
Where I’ve worshipped things of man
I have taken journeys
That have drawn me far from You
Now I am returning
To Your mercies ever flowing
Pardon my transgressions
Help me love You again

Verse 3
I have longed to know You
And all Your tender mercies
Like a river of forgiveness
Ever flowing without end
So I bow my heart before You
In the goodness of Your presence
Your grace forever shining
Like a beacon in the night

Ending
Lord have mercy Lord have mercy on us
Lord have mercy Lord have mercy on us
Lord have mercy Lord have mercy on us
Lord have mercy Lord have mercy on us

Let Your Mercy Rain

by Chris Tomlin

Lyrics

Verse
God You have done great things
God You give grace to the weak
And bless the brokenhearted
With a song of praise to sing

Pre-Chorus
You reached down and lifted us up
You came running looking for us
And now there’s nothing
And no one beyond Your love

Chorus 1
You’re the overflow
You’re the fountain of my heart
Let Your mercy rain
Let Your mercy rain on us

Chorus 2
You’re the faithful one
When the world’s falling apart
Let Your mercy rain
Let Your mercy rain on us

Bridge
How deep how wide
How long how high is Your love
Is Your love
How deep how wide
How long how high is Your love
Is Your love
Oh God

Ending
Let it rain
