Old Hillsong Songs

Once again, we've reached the point where its less than 2 months to the new year! Time reli doesnt wait for anyone, and depending on how u see it, it can be for better or for worse :)

Exams are in 5 weeks plus time, and somehow I need a miracle for 321. Its reli the toughest course that I have ever taken so far and I'm literally clueless abt the most part of the content. Anyway, I shall continue to have bible hope (Elpis), a hope which does not disappoint!! It has been done, and I shall walk as if I have received the good report :)

Suddenly missing old Hillsong songs, like "Through it all, Made me glad, Worthy is the Lamb" and many others. Simple but powerful lyrics, coupled with sweet melodies.

Its so good to see the gospel for what it really is - what that one perfect sacrifice really means to us. Only the wisdom of God could devise such a plan, and together with the fierce love He had for us, resulted in God pouring forth abundance of grace on all mankind!! It is a love story that no man could think of or ever conceive! By taking what we deserved, He gave us what He deserved!!! It is indeed A-M-A-Z-I-N-G G-R-A-C-E who came down for us all :D

Grace Himself came down; can u imagine that???
Who are we that He shd die for us???
Would you give your life for a man, even for a very good man?
Yet He gave His life for us, we who deserve hell otherwise.
Pulling us out from darkness and into his marvelous light, He embarked on the rescue mission.
And today we are not just forgiven sinners but righteous people with a position restored to a much higher place than before!!!
Oh who can fathom His wonderful love???
There is a warmth when u juz think abt it, abt all that He did.
Dont u juz feel so loved?
You are His beloved, in whom He is well pleased :)
Nothing could ever separate you from His love!

Sometimes I wonder what did I do to even deserve all this?
Then I realise that it was nv abt me.
It was never, ever abt what I did or did not do.
Grace is undeserving, so dont try to deserve it.
Knowing this makes me even more awed at His love,
Cos' it is a love based on Him and not our actions.


So here I am to worship
Here I am to bow down
Here I am to say that you are God
You're altogether lovely
Altogether worthy
Altogether wonderful to me


You are forever in my life
You see me through the seasons
Cover me with Your hand
And lead me in Your righteousness
And I look to You
And I wait on You
I'll sing to You Lord a hymn of love
For Your faithfulness to me
I'm carried in everlasting arms
You'll never let me go
Through it all


For You have me made glad
And I'll say of the Lord
You are my shield
My strength
My portion
Deliverer
My shelter
Strong tower
My very present help in time of need
