Prayer & Worship Together: Tyler Holman

Fun in the Park

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul, Oh my soul

Worship His holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I'll worship Your holy name

The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning

It's time to sing Your song again

Whatever may pass

and whatever lies before me

Let me be singing

when the evening comes

You're rich in love,

And You're slow to anger

Your name is great

And Your heart is kind

For all Your goodness

I will keep on singing

Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

And on that day

when my strength is failing

The end draws near & my time has come

Still my soul will sing Your praise unending

Ten thousand years and then forevermore

Found in Your hands, fullness of joy 

Every fear suddenly wiped away,

here in Your Presence 

All of my gains now fade away 

Every crown no longer on display,

here in Your Presence 

Heaven is trembling

in awe of Your wonders

Kings and their kingdoms

are standing amazed 

Here in Your Presence, we are undone 

Here in Your Presence

heaven and earth become one 

Here in Your Presence

all things are new 

Here in Your Presence

Everything bows before You

Wonderful, beautiful, glorious,

matchless in every way!

(Spanish)

Esplendido, hermoso, glorioso,

majestad sin igual!

There's nothing worth more

That could ever come close

Nothing can compare

You're our living hope

Your presence, Lord

I've tasted and seen

Of the sweetest of loves

Where my heart becomes free

And my shame is undone

Your presence, Lord

Holy Spirit, You are welcome here

Come flood this place and fill the atmosphere

Your glory, God, is what our hearts long for

To be overcome by Your presence, Lord

Your presence, Lord

Let us become more aware of Your presence

Let us experience the glory of Your goodness

Oh, I've heard a thousand stories

Of what they think You're like

But I've heard the tender whisper

Of love in the dead of night

And You tell me that You're pleased

And that I'm never alone

You're a good good Father

It's who You are, it's who You are, it's who You are

And I'm loved by You

It's who I am, it's who I am, it's who I am

Oh, and I've seen many searching

For answers far and wide

But I know we're all searching

For answers only You provide

‘Cause You know just what we need

Before we say a word

Cause You are perfect in all of Your ways

You are perfect in all of Your ways

You are perfect in all of Your ways to us

Oh, it's love so undeniable

I, I can hardly speak

Peace so unexplainable

I, I can hardly think

As You call me deeper still

As You call me deeper still

As You call me deeper still

Into love, love, love

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound

That saved a wretch like me

I once was lost but now I'm found

was blind but now I see

'twas grace that taught my heart to fear

And grace my fears relieved

How precious did that grace appear

The hour I first believed

My chains are gone, I've been set free

My God, my Savior has ransomed me

And like a flood His mercy rains

Unending love, Amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me

His word my hope secures

He will my shield and portion be

As long as life endures

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow

The sun forbid to shine

But God, Who called me here below

//Will be forever mine//

You are forever mine
