LYRICS
Jesus At the Center
Written By: Adam Ranney, Israel Houghton, Micah Massey
Jesus at the center of it all
Jesus at the center of it all
From beginning to the end
It will always be
It's always been You
Jesus, Jesus (x2)
Nothing else matters
Nothing in this world will do
Jesus You're the center
Everything revolves around You
Jesus You
Jesus be the center of my life
Jesus be the center of my life
From beginning to the end
It will always be
It's always been You
Jesus, Jesus
From my heart to the Heavens
Jesus be the center
It's all about You
It's all about You (x4)
Jesus be the center of your church
Jesus be the center of Your Church
And every knee will bow Every tongue
shall confess You Jesus Jesus
Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Written By: Helen H. Lemmel
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace
Sovereign Over Us
Written By: Aaron Keyes, Jack Mooring, Bryan Brown
There is strength within the sorrow
There is beauty in our tears
And you meet us in our mourning
With a love that cast out fear
You are working in our waiting
You're sanctifying us
When beyond our understanding
You're teaching us to trust
Your plans are still to prosper
You have not forgotten us
You're with us in the fire and the flood
You're faithful forever
Perfect in love
You are sovereign over us
You are wisdom unimagined
Who could understand your ways
Reigning high above the heavens
Reaching down in endless grace
You're the lifter of the lowly
Compassionate and kind
You surround and you uphold me
And your promises are my delight
Even what the enemy means for evil
You turn it for our good
You turn it for our good and for your glory
Even in the valley, you are faithful
You're working for our good
You're working for our good and for your glory
Break Every Chain
Written By: Will Reagan
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
There is power in the name of Jesus
To break every chain
All sufficient sacrifice
So freely given
Such a price
Bought our redemption
Heaven's gates swing wide
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
There's an army rising up
To Break every chain
The Blessing
Written By: Elevation Worship, Cody Carnes, Kari Jobe
The Lord bless you
And keep you
Make His face shine upon you
And be gracious to you
The Lord turn His
Face toward you
And give you peace
Amen, amen, amen
Amen, amen, amen
May His favor be upon you
And a thousand generations
And your family and your children
And their children, and their children
May His presence go before you
And behind you, and beside you
All around you, and within you
He is with you, He is with you
In the morning, in the evening
In your coming, and your going
In your weeping, and rejoicing
He is for you, He is for you
He is for you, He is for you
He is for you, He is for you
