THE CITY HARMONIC LYRICS
album: "We Are" (2015)
We Are One
Ash to ash, dust to dust
we live and die.
But in the Son, in the Son
we are alive.
All for one, all for one
from every tongue and tribe
in Jesus crucified
'cause Jesus is alive
now, once and for all time.
We are one
we are all for one.
all for Jesus
Jesus, once for all.
To the glory of the one true God
King of kings, Lord of lords
Till kingdom come.
And in the end, in the end
God all in all.
He will be everything,
everything to everyone,
when death is finally done
and victory is won,
once and for all of us.
We are one
We are all for one.
all for Jesus.
Jesus, once for all.
To the glory of the one true God
We won't be moved, we're standing tall.
Once of the dust, now of the Son.
All life and death and what's to come
belong to Christ, and Christ to God.
So here we stand, hands lifted high.
The very hands and feet of Christ.
No holding back, no wasting time.
We live for love
For we are one.
we are all for one.
All for Jesus.
Jesus, once for all.
To the glory of the one true God.
We are one.
We are all for one.
All for Jesus.
Jesus once for all.
To the glory of the one true God.

Maranatha
Breathe
Breathe it in
Feel your heart beat again
Here we are, here I stand with you
To begin to be whole,
To belong, to be known
To believe, we become new
The promise of a kingdom come
The pow'r of sin by Christ undone for
Christ has come and Christ is coming
Rise and sing - Maranatha!
Rise all rise, the King is coming
So we sing: Maranatha, Kingdom Come!
Rise, take a hand
Leave our lines in the sand
Undivided we stand tall
For we sinners, a place
Round this table of saints
Bread and wine, signs of grace for all
The promise of a kingdom come
The pow'r of sin by Christ undone for
Christ has come and Christ is coming
Rise and sing - Maranatha!
Rise all rise, the King is coming
So we sing: Maranatha, Kingdom Come!
For the trenches we make of city streets
(Maranatha)
For the dark and the light at war in me
(Maranatha)
For the heavy of heart and the hanging on
(Maranatha)
For the widowed wife and the orphaned one
(Maranatha)
For the world He so loved, He gave the Son
(Maranatha)
Sing
Christ has come and Christ is coming
Rise and sing - Maranatha!
Rise all rise, the King is coming
So we sing: Maranatha, Kingdom Come!

Into Your Arms
It's true love that loves when I've failed
Oh how, oh how You love me
I hide, You tear down the veil
Oh how, oh how You love me
I've tried and tried to do it all on my own
Still, oh how You love me
'Til I learned to fall down
Oh how, oh how I love You
Now I've found freedom in the fall
Into Your arms
Into Your arms I'm falling
into Your arms
Into Your arms
Set free but I'll choose the chains of true love,
oh how I love You
You lead, show me the way of true love,
oh how I love You
I don't believe that I can do it myself
No, oh how I love You
‘Cause I fell, safe in the arms of true love,
oh how I love You, now
I've found freedom in the fall
Into Your arms
Into Your arms I'm falling
into Your arms
Into Your arms
I was afraid, there in the fall
Until I fell into Your arms
oh
Into Your arms
Into Your arms I'm falling
into Your arms
Into Your arms
oh

Solid Rock
All of the best-laid plans of mice and men
So often go astray
And all the plots and schemes of kings and queens
Shift like the wind that blows away
I dare not trust the sweetest frame of man
But in the name of Jesus
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
Through the pouring rain
No, I won't be afraid
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
I am here to stay
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid
If I'm poor as dirt and left with empty hands
I am still rich beyond my dreams
‘Cause all the other ground is sinking sand,
Yes, I've got everything I need
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
Through the pouring rain
No, I won't be afraid
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
I am here to stay
No, I won't be afraid
I won't be afraid of the dark
When You light the stars in the sky
Yes, I will cling to the foot of the cross
‘Cause my Solid Rock is alive!
Oh
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
Through the pouring rain
No, I won't be afraid
Christ, the Solid Rock I am standing on
I am here to stay
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid

Shout!
Burst into new song
Sing out in wide-eyed wonder
Look at what He's done
For you and I and all the earth
Stained glass and steeples
From Cairo to California
A portrait of people
Painted by the grace of God
(Shout!)
Strike up the band
Shake the ground, let's shout
The streets they will ring with the sound
Let's shout!
There's joy in the noise as we bring
Our praise to the King
Our praise to the king
(Shout!)
Strike up the band
Shake the ground, let's shout
The streets they will ring with the sound
Let's shout!
There's joy in the noise as we bring
Our praise to the King
Our praise to the king
Roar with the ocean
Cheer with the raging river
Move with the mountains
Dancing in their jubilee
We've all been waiting
For the grand finale
Creatures, creation
Echoing in harmony
(Shout!)
Strike up the band
Shake the ground, let's shout
The streets they will ring with the sound
Let's shout!
There's joy in the noise as we bring

He saved the world from end to end
Made peace again
Forever

Let There Be Light
From the chaos You composed
A song that all creation knows
You took a mess, and You made life
You said, "Let there be light."
Word of God, God from the start
Recreating human hearts
Make us like the moon at night
A mirror of the light
With just a word set the dark to flight
Sing to the world, "Let there be light!"
O Word of God, let there be light
Cut through the dark,
oh, Let there be light!
Come risen Son in glory bright
Come Word of God
oh, Let there be light
We're desperate for the break of dawn
To be won by the risen Son
Grace and justice, here collide
To keep us through the night
With just a word, set the dark to flight
Sing to the world, "Let there be light!"
O Word of God, let there be light
Cut through the dark,
oh, Let there be light!
Come risen Son in glory bright
Come Word of God
oh, Let there be light
Sing now, sing into the dark
Sing to lonely hearts,
oh sing, "Let there be light."
Sing out when we see the sun
For our light has come
and the dead have come alive
O Word of God, let there be light
Cut through the dark,
oh, Let there be light!
Come risen Son in glory bright
Come Word of God
oh, Let there be light
O Word of God, let there be light
Cut through the dark,
oh, Let there be light!
Come risen Son in glory bright
Come Word of God
oh, Let there be light
O Word of God, let there be light
Cut through the dark,
oh, Let there be light!
Come risen Son in glory bright
Come Word of God
oh, Let there be light

All Of This And More
I have breathed in deep
the sweetest scent of spring,
I've been silenced by the stars
I've been lost in melody that
Made me weep and said,
"Oh, how great Thou art"
You are more
You are more
You are all of this and more
More than a fleeting touch
More than just flesh and blood
More than a mystery
You're all of this and more
More than a promise kept
More than my life and death
More than a miracle
You're all of this and more
All of this and more
You have whispered silently
of all You've done for me
It took my breath away
You have opened wide
the arms of love Divine and shown
such amazing grace
You are more
You are more
You are who all this is for
You are more
You are more
You are all of this and more
More than a fleeting touch
More than just flesh and blood
More than a mystery
You're all of this and more
More than a promise kept
More than my life and death
More than a miracle
You're all of this and more
It's never enough to say I need You
More than anything else
‘cause I need You like a fire
needs the air to feel alive
More than a fleeting touch
More than just flesh and blood
More than a mystery
You're all of this and more
More than a promise kept
More than my life and death
More than a miracle
You're all of this and more
All of this and more

Oh What Love
From heav’n to us You came in love
Reaching down although we’d turned our hearts
In sacrifice You gave Your Son
Over to death our sins to wash away
In this sacrifice displayed
All the beauty of unending love
There’s so much that I could say
And yet these simple words are rising up:
Father, oh what love
Fully man and fully God
A Great High Priest upon a throne of grace
And in this priesthood I am one
By grace restored to bow before You now
For on that cross one final cry
You traded purity for all my shame
The Son of God for man to die
And even then, I know You knew my name
Jesus, oh what love
Nothing can separate us from Your love
No mountain high, no valley low
How high, how deep, how wide
The love of God
More love than I have ever known
***********************************************
Confession (Agnus Dei)
Christ, what have we done?
O my God, what have we become?
We're like the priest that passes by
the broken and bruised on the other side
Clang our cymbals, sing our hymns
But turn a blind eye to our sin,
singing, Christ have mercy on us
Lamb of God who takes away
The sin of the world
We are sinners gone astray
Have mercy Lord
Lamb of God who takes away
The sin of the world
We are sinners gone astray
Have mercy Lord
Proud, we have played God
Arrogant rebels from the start
Dying to kill who You let live
Eager to judge who You'll forgive
Mad for the glitter of our gold
But we can't buy or sell that soul
Though we confess, You take the blame
Lamb of God we plead, we pray,
singin, Christ have mercy on us
Lamb of God who takes away
The sin of the world
We are sinners gone astray
Have mercy Lord
Lamb of God who takes away
The sin of the world
We are sinners gone astray
Have mercy Lord
Redeemer of the world,
Forgiveness is divine!
In Christ, the Risen Son
There is no sin too great to reconcile!
Redeemer of the world,
Forgiveness is divine!
In Christ, the Risen Son
There is no sin too great to reconcile!
Redeemer of the world, (Lamb of God who takes away)
Forgiveness is divine! (The sin of the world)
In Christ, the Risen Son, (We are sinners saved by grace)
There is no sin too great to reconcile! (We have peace with God)
Redeemer of the world, (Lamb of God who takes away)
Forgiveness is divine! (The sin of the world)
In Christ, the Risen Son, (We are sinners saved by grace)
There is no sin too great to reconcile! (We have peace with God)
Redeemer of the world
***********************************************
Still And Small
For all my burning and desire
I can't find You in the flame
For all the shaking up I've tried
I can't find You in the quake
Oh for all my running in circles
What have I become but a little tired?
Hush, I'll wait for
You—be with me through it all
You—Spirit speak, still and small
For all the hot air that I blow
I can't find You in the wind
For all the things I think I know
I know less than when I began
and oh for all my running in circles
What have I become but a little tired?
Hush, I'll wait for
You—be with me through it all
You—Spirit speak, still and small
Oh for all my running in circles
What have I become but a little tired?
On and on and on and on
and Oh for all my running in circles
What have I become but a little tired?
Hush now wait
For a moment, still and small
and I hear You say, "Hush, now, wait"
***********************************************
One
Here I stand, at the cross
Wholly saved in the Holy One
Body, mind, heart and soul
One
Here You are, Father God
In the Spirit and through the Son
The Lord Our God, the Lord is One
One
O Lord our God: Three-In-One
Holy Father Spirit Son
Make us one as You are One
Here we are, many parts
One in Spirit and of one heart
The body of the living God
One
Make us one as You are One
