Sometimes the most powerful songs are the simplest. I wanted to write something which would capture the sense of wonder and thankfulness that I feel when I think about God. So here's my latest, very simple song, 'You Are'.
You are my safety
You are my refuge
You are my righteousness
My justice
You are
You are my saving grace
You are my hiding place
You are my prince of peace
You are
And I will worship you my King
And I will worship you my King
And I will worship you 
And I will worship you
For all you are and all you do
You are my shepherd
You are my great high priest
You are my king of kings
You are
Me and My Guitar

Love Song (I)
You stole my untrained heart
One look created the spark
Darling if this is what it means
You'll be the king I'll be your queen
Together we'll believe
We weren't meant to walk alone
And my love you are the one
I am the star you are the moon
Our hearts belonged before they bet
Life is sweeter since we met
You're the only one for me
One look created the spark
Darling if this is what it means
You'll be the king I'll be your queen
Together we'll believe
We weren't meant to walk alone
And my love you are the one
I am the star you are the moon
Our hearts belonged before they bet
Life is sweeter since we met
You're the only one for me

Bigger (Worthy)
Bigger than these
problems
Strong enough to carry
my broken soul
Higher than the
mountains
Greater than the noise
of this storm
You were and are and
will be forever
You were and are and
will be forever
All I can do 
Is lift my hands to
You
I’ll trust You for
today
Worthy, You are worthy
Of all my hope, my trust and my love
Glory, You are glorious
There’s nothing You can’t do
And so I lift my eyes to You
Your ways are higher
than my ways
And your plans are
greater than my own
So I look to You, and
I surrender all my life
Worthy, You are worthy…
Holy, You are Holy
You’re worthy of my praise

Feeling like I've fallen
Feeling like I've fallen a million miles from home
All I had was nothing that I could call my own
I thought that I was stronger, but this has made me see
That I'm weak without You, and so in need
Of your grace
Which is stronger than my weakness
And it's Your strength
Which carries me through each day
Anything that's good inside
I can only testify
That it's You-
I'd be lost without You.
The kindest hands on earth couldn't mend my sin-torn soul
Nor could I find a love like Yours to make this broken spirit whole
It's like you've taken off the scales and suddenly I see
That with you I only need to beCa vulnerably me
So I sing...
All I had was nothing that I could call my own
I thought that I was stronger, but this has made me see
That I'm weak without You, and so in need
Of your grace
Which is stronger than my weakness
And it's Your strength
Which carries me through each day
Anything that's good inside
I can only testify
That it's You-
I'd be lost without You.
The kindest hands on earth couldn't mend my sin-torn soul
Nor could I find a love like Yours to make this broken spirit whole
It's like you've taken off the scales and suddenly I see
That with you I only need to beCa vulnerably me
So I sing...

Breathe into my heart, Spirit of God
Breathe into my heart, Spirit of God
Wash away my sin and make me clean
Speak your words of life into my soul
Come take Your rightful place once again

O my soul awake for the Lord is near
O my soul awake for the Lord is near
Don’t lose heart, for it’s in His strength we stand
Hold on to the promise He has given
In His name, we will overcome the world
Let us lift our eyes to the Great I Am
Worship our King who is the Morning Star
See the battle is fierce and the road is long
But in Christ our strength we won’t give up
We will worship one day without sin or pain
We’ll praise You with all those that You’ve washed clean
We will lift Your name up here on earth
Singing holy, holy, worthy is the Lamb
Holy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
Don’t lose heart, for it’s in His strength we stand
Hold on to the promise He has given
In His name, we will overcome the world
Let us lift our eyes to the Great I Am
Worship our King who is the Morning Star
See the battle is fierce and the road is long
But in Christ our strength we won’t give up
We will worship one day without sin or pain
We’ll praise You with all those that You’ve washed clean
We will lift Your name up here on earth
Singing holy, holy, worthy is the Lamb
Holy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb

Come to Me
Come to Me
All you who're heavy laden
Come to Me
Lay your burden at the cross
Come to Me
And I'll lead you by still waters
Come to Me
For I died to take away your pain
I died to heal you of your shame
I died to make you whole again
Don't stay away any longer
Come to Me
All you who're heavy laden
Come to Me
Lay your burden at the cross
Come to Me
And I'll lead you by still waters
Come to Me
For I died to take away your pain
I died to heal you of your shame
I died to make you whole again
Don't stay away any longer
Come to Me
