creation longing
1.
The heart of all creation is a waiting with longing
To fill the need of every soul
The power that’s behind all things we know is searching
for the ones who would come fearlessly close. The ones
he knows are able to receive the riches of deepest deep.
The ones who long for those as much as He would long to give.
Therefore holding back would be a loss; a foolishness indeed
Holding back would be a shrill against the comfort
That’s on offer.
Holding back would be a suicide of hope.
Holding back would be un precedented loss.
2.
The yearnings and the tears like quiet rivers flow
Directly to the centre of his heart
Like waves of great beseeching they resound and fall
Across the vastness of his generous heart
And wave after a wave of this beseeching has reached his heart
for centuries and now it has become like a crescendo
of Tsunamis reaching high and going deep.
Therefore holding back would be a loss; a foolishness indeed
Holding back would be a shrill against the comfort
That’s on offer.
Holding back would be a suicide of hope.
Holding back would be unprecedented loss.

love will come
1.
Love will visit those who long for it
Love will come and sweep you off your feet
Love will come and minister its wonders galore through and through. Love will come and give you rest
speak to you its tenderness
Love will come and sprinkle showers of joy.
Should you feel estranged and lost, no one cares,
no one’s true. Stranded and ashamed,
you feel everyone turned their backs.
through this suffering that’s deep inside
There’s still hope, there’s still light
Love will search until it finds you, then lift you up.
2.
Love will enter every darkened place
Like a search light it will send its rays
Till it gathers all who feel abandoned and thrown to the dust
Love will fetch you from beyond; wipe away your every wrong
Love will carry you and bring you home.
If you trust it to remain through the pain
Through the strain, it will serve you with its
Wonders of mercy and grace
You’ll be watered through the driest times
Staying moist, staying kind
never, never to be stranded, or shunned at all
3.
Love will come and kiss you when you’re old
Love will always miss you when you’re cold
Love will minister its tenderness come what may
If you trust it to be there, never giving up your care
It will keep its sweetness steady in your heart.

stand under the rainbow
1.
Stand under the rainbow of the skies
and watch it stretching x2
stand under its smile
stand under its smile
Stand under the hand that stretched
horizon to horizon
and you will see eternity
stretch all the way.
Stand under the hand that will destroy
and flatten mountains
and bring peace, bring peace
to the world.
2.
Stand under the shadow of the moon
And watch it shining
Stand under its glow x2
Stand under its glow
Stand under the hand that spread
The sky in all its vastness
and you will hear it speak
discreetly to your soul
Stand under the hand that will be raised
to bring you triumph
loving hand that clears
all that’s wrong.
3.
Hold the hand that made this vast array
and let it guide you
hold that mighty hand 2x
hold that mighty hand
Hold that hand that leads you
let your soul soar to the heavens
above the clouds that lift your feet
from sodden earth.
Hold that hand that guides you
and sustains you through all sorrows
you will see your tears
turn to joy.

Give me a light
1.
Give me a light
show me the way
give me a tear
my sorrow to sway.
Deep in my heart
teach me to pray
set me aright
your path to obey
Refrain:
Christ will descend
into my heart
soothing and gentle x2
all tears he will wipe
2.
Down in the dust
souls lost their glow
lend me a hand
to soften the blow.
Give me a light
to help them ignite
their sorrow will flow
into the night.
Refrain:
Christ will descend
into their hearts x2
soothing and gentle
all tears he will wipe.
Give me a light
show me the way
give me a tear
