LYRICS

RISE LIKE A CHAMPION

Well I got the feeling
A comforting feeling
That though we have fallen
We are not defeated

So gather your wisdom
Go summon your courage
Whatever the vision
Just fix your eyes on it

Rise like a champion

We’re children of freedom;
People of the Spirit
Here’s our motivation –
We go where the Love is

The power in this moment
We will not ignore
God knows here, there’re only
So many tomorrows

Rise like a champion

As long as I’m here
I’m seizing the day
Believe, believe it’s heaven sent
I’m trusting the promise
Faith lifting me high
Give me the wings I need to fly

No one’s ever seen it
No mind can conceive it
What’s waiting for us
The sky is the limit

And though we have trouble
And at times it seems hopeless
I know God has surely
Not given up on us

HELLO JESUS

You surprise me and amaze me
Jesus You are wonderful
You give all and You want all of me
Lord. You are radical
Loving me enough to heal me
And to save me from myself
Trusting me enough to send me out to shine for You

All of my life, wanna live with You
All of my life, wanna live with You
All of my life, wanna live with You
Jesus, Jesus – Yes I do!

Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Hello Jesus. Glad to meet You
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Was searching and I found You in my heart
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
All this time I longed to meet You
Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh
Was searching and I found You in my heart

Bridge:
Was searching and I found You
And Lord You were searching and You found me
Now, what could separate us?
We’re gonna walk this way forever

HOME

Made it to my horizon
Cross the border to survival
My arrival wasn’t all I thought it’d be

I need somewhere to settle down
To re-adjust my dreams for now
To lay my head so I can be at ease

Home, home, home
No matter where I wander
No matter where I roam
I’m longing for
Home, home, home
Still searching, still longing for home

I took a chance in being here
I hope that chance is really there
I chose the risk and have to count the cost

But the aftertaste is bittersweet
’Cause while gaining possibilities
The truth is, there is so much I have lost

Bridge:
Where I am wanted and my life has meaning
A place where I am known
Where I can be myself without much explaining
A place where I belong

Outro:
Still searching
Still longing
Still dreaming
I’m still praying
Still hoping
Still waiting
Still searching, still longing for home

BURNING BRIGHTLY

I have got the light of God in me
Dancing in my spirit, strong and free
Not gonna hide, I’ll lift it up
Hold it up high and share the love
As long as I’m alive, Lord let it be
Burning brightly

Tramping through the tempest of our time
Needing hope and searching for a sign
Longing for help, feeling lost
I’ll do what I can with what I’ve got
May you see this little light of mine
Burning brightly

When we are united, we will be
Set ablaze and all the world will see
Visions that we’ve been dreaming of
So humble ourselves and live in love
And let the revolution start with us
Burning brightly

Soaking in the Son, so you see me
Burning brightly

ONE

Two children looking up to the stars on a dark, clear night
Both in awe as they try to guess how far away’s the light
Can’t agree on an answer, so they end up in fight.

Five miles or ten? All they’re trying to say, is it’s very, very far
They just don’t get stars are billions of miles from where they are
I wish they’d see they’re agreeing on the wonder of it all

Can’t you see
We are one
We’re different, but we’re one
In His love

Can’t you feel
What He wants
We ought to live as one
In His love

Like children trying to express a truth in our space and time
Could we ever capture God with our human mind?
Keep on searching, believing
and as we seek Him, we will find.

Bridge:
Well, if we’re up too close, then we might see just one thing
If we’re too far away, we might not think that He is
But if we live His love, then maybe we’ll learn something
And see a facet of our God we may have missed

LET LOVE HAVE THE LAST WORD

There is a burden we’ve been carrying for so long
Carried it through days and nights and years
and many, many tears
Maybe it’ll be over now

There are still some things
That will never be explained
Some things we will never know
Things we will never understand
Things that could drive a soul insane

Love
Sometimes it seems so absurd
No matter what your feelings say
They cannot always have their way
Let love have the last word

Love
Even when your vision’s blurred
Though you may feel like giving in
To the rage that is within
Let love have the last word

We keep on praying for strength
To keep going through the hardest days
Pray for courage for the fight
For discernment in the night
Pray for wisdom on our way

Pray for peace and freedom
To let it go and give it up
Faith to leave it His hands
Not forget that God is God
And to remember we are not

Love
At times it seems so absurd
No matter what your feelings say
And though they’re rising up again
Let love have the last word

Love
When it feels like justice isn’t heard
Though you may feel the spite of sin
We will not let evil win
Let love have the last word

’Cause you see, with love
We don’t always get what we deserve
Although we may not understand
We will leave it in God’s hands
Let love have the last word

We believe in love
Love that is not of this world
No matter what your feelings say
They cannot always have their way
Let love have the last word

COME ON PEOPLE

If God is love
And love runs deep
Could we be
His hands and feet?

In a world
That cannot wait
Don’t waste time
It’s getting late

Come on people
Let’s do something
That is gonna ease someone
Make a difference
Help somebody
Before the day is done

Be a light
Live your prayers
Help a heart
Hope again

Peace not war
Love not hate
Freedom now
It’s getting late

MAKE SOME NOISE

Do you realize that life is a gift
And recognize the goodness of God?
If you know you’re blessed and you’re glad to be here
Make some noise! Make some noise! Make some noise!

If you sense He’s got His hand on your life
Or know for sure He’s brought you this far
If you’re grateful, thankful, let heaven hear it
Make some noise! Make some noise! Make some noise!

Celebrate Him
And get your soul waking
Lift up your voice
He’s amazing
So get up and praise Him
Make some noise! Make some noise!

There are good things promised right up ahead
Though it still may be taking a while
Let Him know you trust Him; praise while you wait
Make some noise! Make some noise! Make some noise!

So stand and testify to His love and His grace
To His faithfulness new every morning
Let your spirit rejoice if your soul resonates
Make some noise! Make some noise! Make some noise!

Bridge:
Now we’re raising the roof for the One we believe in
Give it up! Give it up! Let it rise through the ceiling
’Cause we owe it to Him, every breath that we’re breathing.
We‘re breathing!

WHEN THE WALLS COME TUMBLING DOWN

Life presses on
Shifting the stone
One day in time, we will see it all
When the walls come tumbling down
Barriers that fall may be my own
Might need Your Spirit to shield my soul
When the walls come tumbling down

On the way, I feel You chisel into that rock
As You carve away, You’re releasing that block
And all the while You stay I’m learning why I’m afraid
And feel the sweetest freedom coming now I’m opening up again

Guarded shadow land; I’m slowly discovering
What kept the aching out, also would not let blessing in
Unforeseen, that power that came from sharing my shame
And vulnerability frees up my heart to join with Yours again

Music & Lyrics: Judy Bailey

MAKING ME SING

Ask me why I’m here, I say it is love
When it comes to praise, I’m giving it up
Loving life’s not simply something I do
Raise my hands give credit where credit is due

It is You
Living in me
Thrilling my heart
Making me sing
Stirring my passion
You are to me
The joy of my life
And I’m gonna sing

Now whatever comes, I’m keeping the faith
Been around, but there’s just nothing like grace
To turn your world around and trigger a change
That is why I sing again and again

Bridge:
It’s Your Spirit
And I know it
It’s You inside my soul that makes me sing

Music & Lyrics: Judy Bailey

WE BELIEVE IN GOD

We have hope
For the coming days
Holy Light
And it will not fail
We have hope
We have hope

We have faith
in the face of fear
Built on Christ
And we’re grounded there
We have faith
We have faith

We believe in God
We believe God is
Streaming down through time
Here with us today
Now whatever comes
We believe that God remains
Father, Son and Spirit
We believe

We have love
and it covers all
Strong and sure
When our peace is gone
We have love
We have love

We have God
So we’re not alone
By His grace
We will carry on
We have God
We have God

Bridge:
Oh! We believe!
Lift your voices up loud and sing!

PRAY ON

And I won’t stop now
I know grace is available
And our goals are attainable
Pray on
I’ll keep on praying on

And I won’t stop now
I know grace is available
And our goals are attainable
Pray on
I’ll be holding strong
When it all seems unbearable
Know that life is a miracle
Pray On
I‘ll keep on praying on

To the keeper of my soul
I’ll be praying, I’ll be praying on
To the One who is my hope
I’ll be praying, I’ll be praying on
For the strength to lift my load
I’ll be praying, I’ll be praying on
Though the day is long
When the sun goes down, hear me saying

That I won’t stop now…

All along this winding road
I’ll be praying I’ll be praying on
Daily, daily as I go
I’ll be praying I’ll be praying on
In His Spirit not my own
I’ll be praying I’ll be praying on
Feel it fuel my faith each and every breath that I’m taking

REMEMBER WE ARE ONE

You and I
Stumbling our way to the great unknown
Tired but still
Believing that light’s gonna lead us home

And though the healing is taking so long
Sisters and brothers, carry on

Remember we are one
Remember we are lifted
Remember we are in His love

Side by side
It’s crazy to see how we can behave
Sure, sometimes
It’s tempting to go our separate ways

But though it’s a challenge
although it’s so hard
We can do more when we’re not apart

Remember we are one
Remember we are lifted
Remember we are in His love

Remember we are one
Remember we are His still
Remember we are in His love
We are in His love
In His love
In His love
In His love

And though the healing is taking so long
Hold your head high and carry on

Remember we are one
Remember we are lifted
Remember we are in His love

Don’t forget we’re one
Don’t forget we’re His still
Remember we are in His love

HOLD US TOGETHER

The changing scenes of life will take us
Through the valleys, over hills
And at times we wonder if we’ll make it
But we will, yes we will

Cause You’re alive in every story
Every page You’re with us still
Lord You’ve been leading us through generations
And You will, yes You will

Hold us hold us together
Hold us hold us together
Hold us hold us together
Your love will hold us together

And so, whatever’s in the future
You’re the hope on which we build
Your Word is solid Lord and You are faithful
Said You will, and You will

SPIRIT OF FREEDOM (BE HOPE TODAY)

Jwale „ke Nako“ ya kgololosego (freedom time is now)

We’ve come a long way. Look and see how far we’ve come!
Over mountains, through valleys and we still go on
Count your blessings and rise like the morning sun
If you’re ready, then come; if you’re ready, then come

Seize the day, seize the moment, seize the chance to run
With the wisdom and the vision that has spurred us on
Let your love well up; let the walls fall down
If you’re ready, then come; if you’re ready, shout

Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Be hope today, be hope today
Shine the spirit of freedom

You and I celebrating; we have been set free
Everybody now embrace your identity
It is time. Stand strong come together as one
If you’re ready, then come; if you’re ready then come

Take the challenge on and let the whole world see
We are champions headed for the victory
Like the lion, don’t rest ’til the fight is won
If you’re ready, then come; if you’re ready shout

ONE SONGBOOK

„Ein tolles Buch habt Ihr da herausgegeben. Was mir besonders gut gefällt, sind die vielen Extras – manche einfach sehr praktisch, wie die Guitar-Sheets und die Übersetzungen – und andere einfach nur schön, wie die Hintergrund-Geschichten und die vielen Fotos. Das ist tatsächlich viel mehr als ein Songbook, wie sie sonst auf dem Markt sind. Es ist ein Buch, in dem man auch (gern) lesen kann und mag. Ein ganz großes Kompliment! – Da mache ich sehr sehr gerne Werbung für in meinem Chor.“
