She asked him for forever
And a promise that would last
He said Babe you know I love you
But I can t commit to that
She said Love isn t love
Till You give it away
A father lived in silence
Saw his son become a man
There was a distance felt between them
Cause he could not understand
That love isn t love
Till you give it away
You gotta give it away

As we live
Moving side by side
May we learn to give
(May we learn to give)
Learn to sacrifice

We can entertain compassion
For a world in need of care
But the road of good intentions
Doesn t lead to anywhere
Cause love isn t love
Till you give it away yeah
You gotta give it away

As we live
Moving side by side
May we learn to give
(May we learn to give)
Learn to sacrifice

Love is like a river
Flowing down from the Giver of life
We drink from the water
And our thirst is no longer denied
You gotta give it away

As we live
Moving side by side
(Moving side by side)
May we learn to give
(May may may we learn to give)
Learn to sacrifice

There was a man who walked on water
He came to set the people free
He was the ultimate example
Of what love can truly be
Cause His love was His life
And He gave it away
You gotta give it away

As we live
Moving side by side
May we learn to give
(May may we learn to give)
Learn to sacrifice

You gotta give it away

As we live
(As we live)
Moving side by side
(Moving side moving side by side)
May we learn to give
(May we may we learn to give)
Learn to sacrifice
(Learn to sacrifice)

Shall we gather at the river,
Where bright angel feet have trod, With its
crystal tide forever,
Flowing by the throne of God

Yes, we’ll gather at the river,
The beautiful, the beautiful river;
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows by the throne of God.

On the bosom of the river, Where the
Saviour-King we own,
We shall meet and sorrow never, ‘Neath the glory of
the throne.

On the margin of the river,
Washing up its silver spray, We will walk and
worship ever, All the happy, golden day.

Ere we reach the shining river, Lay we every burden down;
Grace our spirits
will deliver,
And provide a robe and crown.

At the smiling of the river,
Mirror of the Saviour’s face, Saints whom death
will never sever Lift their songs of saving grace.

Soon we’ll reach the shining river,
Soon our pilgrimage will cease;
Soon
our happy hearts will quiver With the
melody of peace.

Send the flood-tides of Thy blessing!
Pour exhaustless draughts of grace;
in the spate of heavenly glory
oh, my God, spare me a place.
Come around us, o’er us, on us,
fill our souls with holy fire,
come in glory, stand among us!
Oh my soul, to God aspire!

Cleanse! Thou mighty flood-tide –
cleanse me
purer than the driven snow!
Oh the precious blood doth reach me,
His blessed cleansing now I know!
God is here in matchless splendour,
gone the glory of earth’s sun,
blinded by the vision glorious,
Lord in me, Thy will be done.

Hallelujah! Glory! Glory!
God in majesty doth sweep,
gushing forth a mighty torrent,
o’er land and sea His power doth leap.
Oh Thou Victor – ride in Triumph!
Blood-bought riches Thou must claim,
on till we with hosts of glory
swell forever Thy mighty fame!

See, amid the winter’s snow,
Born for us on earth below,
See, the Lamb of God appears,
Promised from eternal years.

Hail, thou ever-blessèd morn!
Hail, redemption’s happy dawn!
Sing through all Jerusalem:
Christ is born in Bethlehem!

Lo, within a manger lies
He who built the starry skies,
He who throned in height sublime
Sits amid the cherubim.

Say, ye holy shepherds, say,
What your joyful news today;
Wherefore have ye left your sheep
On the lonely mountain steep

‘As we watched at dead of night,
Lo, we saw a wondrous light:
Angels singing, ‘Peace on earth’
Told us of the Saviour’s birth.’

Sacred Infant, all divine,
What a tender love was Thine,
Thus to come from highest bliss
Down to such a world as this!

Teach, O teach us, holy Child,
By Thy face so meek and mild,
Teach us to resemble Thee
In Thy sweet humility.

See how great a flame aspires,
kindled by a spark of grace!
Jesus’ love the nations fires,
sets the kingdoms on a blaze.
To bring fire on earth He came;
kindled in some hearts it is;
O that all might catch the flame,
all partake the glorious bliss!

When He first the work begun,
small and feeble was His day;
now the word doth swiftly run,
now it wins its widening way;
more and more it spreads and grows
ever mighty to prevail;
sin’s strongholds it now o’erthrows,
shakes the trembling gates of hell.

Sons of God, your Saviour praise!
He the door hath opened wide;
He hath given the word of grace,
Jesus’ word is glorified;
Jesus, mighty to redeem,
He alone the work hath wrought;
worthy is the work of Him,
Him who spake a world from nought.

Saw ye not the cloud arise,
little as a human hand?
Now it spreads along the skies,
hangs o’er all the thirsty land:
lo! the promise of a shower
drops already from above;
but the Lord will shortly pour
all the Spirit of His love!

Search me, O God! my actions try,
and let my life appear,
as seen by Thine all-searching eye,
to mine my ways make clear.

Search all my sense, and know my heart,
who only canst make known,
and let the deep, the hidden part
to me be fully shown.

Throw light into the darkened cells
where passion reigns within;
quicken my conscience till it feels
the loathsomeness of sin.

Search all my thoughts, the secret
springs,
the motives that control;
the chambers where polluted things
hold empire o’er the soul.

Search, till Thy fiery glance has cast
its holy light through all,
and I by grace am brought at last
before Thy face to fall.

Thus prostrate I shall learn of Thee
what now I feebly prove,
that God alone in Christ can be
unutterable love

Scattered words and empty thoughts
seem to pour from my heart
I ve never felt so torn before
seems I don t know where to start
but it s now that I feel Your grace falls like rain
from every fingertip washing away my pain

I still believe in Your faithfulness
I still believe in Your truth
I still believe in Your holy word
even when I don t see I still believe
Though the questions still fog up my mind
with promises I still seem to bear
even when answers slowly unwind
it s my heart I see You prepare
but its now that I feel Your grace fall like rain
from every finger tip washing away my pain

The only place I can go is into your arms
where I throw to you my feeble prayers
in brokeness I can see that this was your will for me
Help me to know You are near

Saviour, Thy dying love
Thou gavest me,
nor should I aught withhold,
my Lord, from Thee;
in love my soul would bow,
my heart fulfil its vow,
some offering bring Thee now,
something for Thee.

At the blest mercy-seat
pleading for me,
my feeble faith looks up,
Jesus, to Thee:
help me the cross to bear,
Thy wondrous love declare,
some song to raise, or prayer,
something for Thee.

Give me a faithful heart,
likeness to Thee,
that each departing day
henceforth may see
some work of love begun,
some deed of kindness done,
some wanderer sought and won,
something for Thee.

All that I am and have,
Thy gifts so free,
in joy, in grief, through life,
O Lord, for Thee.
And when Thy face I see,
my ransomed soul shall be,
through all eternity,
something for Thee

Saviour, my sin-stained soul
longs to be fully whole
and all Thy great salvation see.
Haste I to Calvary’s flow
that washes white as snow,
Thy blood, so freely shed for me.

Long have I vainly tried
to stem back nature’s tide
that, surging up, defiles my days.
Foul, helpless, all undone,
hope in myself is none:
yet bring me forth to sing Thy praise!

Lord, I Thy word believe
that I in Thee shall live
if I but truly die with Thee.
Make Thou me pure in heart,
grant me the better part
secured by Thine own Blood for me.

Henceforth Thy life is mine
and I am wholly Thine,
my members under Thy control;
kept every day and hour,
held by Thy mighty power,
Thine while eternal ages roll

Salvation belongs to our God!
Who sits upon the throne
And unto the lamb.

Praise and glory,
Wisdom and thanks,
Honor and power and strength,
Be to our God, forever and ever! (x4)

And we the redeemed shall be strong,
In purpose and unity
Declaring aloud…

Praise and glory,
Wisdom and thanks,
Honor and power and strength,
Be to our God, forever and ever! (x4)
