Intimercy

How sweet, upon the lips of Jesus,
are the towns and cities of this nation
His words bind up the broken-hearted
Bringing, healing hope and restoration
He lifts the mist of darkness
That has settled on this land
From Lies to truth and blind to sight
Jesus turns it all around

When Jesus comes everything changes
When Jesus comes cities are transformed
When Jesus comes dark shadows tremble
When Jesus comes its good news for all

How sweet to hear the children playing
Their homes are filled with joy and laughter
how beautiful is the city of gold?
For those sleeping on a cold winter floor
he rescues men from despair
lifts depression from lives
from down and out to peace and joy
Jesus turns it all around

From judgment to mercy and Prison to freedom
From Bondage to victory and Darkness to light
From Ashes to beauty and Deafness to hearing
From weakness to glory and Blindness to sight

How sweet the sound of strongholds falling
Their curses broken their giants fallen
he breaks the chains of those in bondage
he lifts the fear of those held captive
He frees girls who work the streets
saves children from the gangs
From Hate to love and Old to new
Jesus turns it all around

Where the spirit of the lord is there is freedom
Where the spirit of the lord is there is freedom

So, we dance and we sing and we laugh and we shout
So, we dance and we sing and we laugh and we shout

I could shout from the highest mountain
I could tell the whole world of your grace
I could sing of your love and mercy
I could scream and yell out your praise

You’re the Lily in the valley
a stream in the desert
A light in the darkness
The anchor in the storm

A father to the fatherless
The hope amongst despair
healer of the broken
The rest for troubled souls

Chorus
You are my shield
and you my glory
You are the lifter of my head

You turn mourning into dancing
Turn sorrow into joy
Bring to the poor good news
And Rebuild ruined lives

You turn judgment into mercy
You make peace through your blood
Over death you triumphed
You raise us up to life

Chorus
You are my shield
and you my glory
And you are the lifter of my head

Refrain
And this is the year,
Yes this is the year
The year of the favor of the Lord

chorus

For the lost and the lonely, for the naked and the shamed,
For the sick and the broken, for the hungry and the poor,

You have set your hope in me.

For the frail and the helpless, for the wounded and the hurt,
For the weak and defenceless, for the voiceless and the scorned,

You have set your hope in me.

For the bruised and the beaten, for the trafficked and abused,
For the Orphan and widow, the outcast and refugee
You have set your hope in me.

For the sad and the hopeless, for the blind and the deaf,
For the lowly and empty, the forsaken and exposed,
You have set your hope in me.

Who shines Your light, who shows Your grace?

In this dark and broken world
Who lives Your love, who speaks Your truth?
Where is heaven touching the earth.

It’s in Jesus, Make known Jesus, Reveal Jesus

Verse
You lead me by still waters
You bring me to a place of peace
How can I be in want Lord?
You give me everything I need?

You pursue me with your love
You restore my wounded soul
You are the fountain of life
You fill my heart to overflow

Verse
You lead me in your footsteps
Carry me through stormy days
How can I fear the darkness?
When you are with me all the way

And you draw me by your Love
Guide me back into the way
I in you and you in me
My heart abides in you alone

Chorus

I will put my trust in you
Your ever faithful and true
I will trust in you alone
I will trust in you alone

verse
You walk me through the garden
Speak your words of truth to me
You show me all your mysteries
Your word a lamp unto my feet

you anoint my head with oil
How your fragrance fills the air
All of your goodness like gold
runs through all the days of my life
