Holy is the lamb
That was slain for us all

You reign
Glory, hallelujah
You reign

So Great a Salvation
Romans 5:17: For if by the transgression of the one, death reigned through the one, much more those who receive the abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.
Verse 1: (Romans 3:23, 5:17)
Through one who sinned
Death reigned
All have fallen short of the King
The King of Glory
A place of weeping and pain
Separation from light and joy
Verse 2: (Ephs 2:13, Romans 5:8-10)
We were far from where we are
Not to fear, He brought us near
by His blood
While enemies of God
Christ died for us
Pre chorus: (Romans 5:17-20)
Through One who died
Grace reigns
Where sin increased
Grace abounded all the more
Chorus: (Col 1:13)
So great a salvation
Is this, in Christ
Entered into the Kingdom of light
So great a salvation
Is this, in Christ
Entered into the Kingdom of light

Set Free
Verse: (Rom 8:2, Gal 2:20, Psalm 30:11, John 14:6)
I have been set free from my sin
No longer me who lives
But Christ who lives inside me
Turned my mourning into dancing
Set My eyes to see His face
He Lived the life
He is the way
Now I've got a lot to say
Pre Chorus: (Gal 3:13, Phil 3:13-14, Heb 12:1-3)
In Christ we've been redeemed
He's the end
The goal and the prize
To run the race in Chirst
We set aside
The things of this world
Chorus: (Romans 8:2, 15-17)
I am free
I am free
I am free from the law
Of sin and death
Oh I came as a slave
Now a child of the King
I am free
I am free
Bridge:
I have been set free from my sin
No longer me who lives
But Christ
Turned my mourning into dancing
He Lived the life
He is the way
Now I've got a lot to say

Standing on the Promises
I sang Standing on the Promises many times growing up. It had such strong words, but I couldn't get past the boom-chuck music (Yeah, I know, I'm a young kid). Once I read the words in a book, I saw how powerful the song really was. It was then I knew I needed to write new music for these great words. I hope through this new version that many more people will be ministered to by this beloved old hymn.
Verse 1:
Standing on the promises of Christ my King
Through eternal ages let His praises ring
Glory in the highest, I will shout and sing
Standing on the promises of God
Verse 2:
Standing on the promises that cannot fail
When the howling storms of doubt and fear assail
By the living Word of God I shall prevail
Standing on the promises of God
Verse 3:
Standing on the promises of Christ the Lord
Bound to Him eternally by love's strong cord
Overcoming daily with the Spirit's sword
Standing on the promises of God
Verse 4:
Standing on the promises I cannot fall
List'ning every moment to the Spirit's call
Resting in my Savior as my all in all
Standing on the promises of God
Chorus:
Standing, standing
Standing on the promises of God my Savior
Standing, standing
I'm standing on the promises of God

We Have Won
Verse 1:
Victory in Jesus
The battle is done
Sin is overcome by our King
Who layed down His life
And overcame death
All so that we could be free
Verse 2:
Do not fear
Our God comes
And He will rescue His chosen ones
For surely He'll hear
The sound of our cries
The sword of God will set us free
And we will sing
Verse 3:
A sound in the deep
A trumpet rings out
The clouds roll back and You descend
And on that day
When faith becomes sight
And we are standing in the light
Then we will sing...
Chorus:
We have won
We have won
The battle's done
Our God reigns
