To You (feat. Davy Flowers) - Housefires

Praise Him For the cosmos And the picture that it paints Of an artist so brilliant He can scarcely be defined Praise Him For the first time That you paused to notice The open sky and wondered What kind of imagination Could inspire Such beautiful thing From scratch Praise Him For the scratch, For dust Held in the hands Of a master craftsman Unashamed to share His likeness with those He knew would break His heart and test His patience, And try His love Praise Him For the borrowed breath That you breathe and Faculties that function So as to remind you that You are not your own, For a love That finds its way to you In every season Letting you know that You are not alone Praise Him For the miracles That your eyes have seen That you were too hard-hearted To believe Too nearsighted to perceive And too self-sufficient To receive, And still somehow, He met all of your needs Praise Him For broken hearts and Bruised knees, From mountains brought low, In valleys raised for joy Given in the deep of night. Praise Him For the night and weeping That always expires, And lasts only as long as He allows Come on Praise Him For all that He allows, All that He permits, All that He prevents, And all that He provides, For blessings often overlooked Because they're disguised Praise Him For Jesus, Who brought the radiance of the sun And the tyranny Of an unrelenting dark knight. And before you were even awake to the world Tou gloried in His light, Warmed by the generosity of His love, Carried from death to life On the wings of faith. Remember your name, Utter in a prayer, And your heart awakened To its need for a Savior Praise Him For the Savior Who showed up at just the right time To show humanity That God would never turn his back On the world that he made Praise Him For the way that He came, Matchless power Contained in the frame of a child, Born in a city as obscure as they come. The giver of life Filling up his very own lungs To show that He's not ashamed of us He is well-acquainted with us And is committed, No matter what the cost, To saving us Praise Him For saving us In the cross That provided the means It's the door Through which we enter the shade, Under which we rest His righteousness and not our own His grace and His grace alone Calling us out and bringing us in, Conquering death and Absolving our sin. Let me say it again Praise Him For the season that you're in Because it bears The mark of His hold on you And when life gets a hold of you Tempting you to forget, Lift your eyes, Lift your hands, Lift your hearts, and Praise Him. Lift your eyes, Lift your hands, Lift your hearts, and Praise Him. Lift your eyes, We lift our hands

I was buried beneath my rebellion Lost without hope of redemption Blind in my need for a Savior Oh but God Crushed by the weight of my failure Living the lie I created Digging my grave without knowing Oh but God oh but God Rich in mercy how You loved me Too much to let me stay lost My salvation sent from heaven Nailing my sin to a cross Oh but God You gave me a truth worth believing And I traded my chains for Your freedom Cause You were the one that I needed Oh but God Resurrecting my heart from the ruins My rescue came through like the morning Now this is my sure testimony Oh but God oh but God Rich in mercy how You loved me Too much to let me stay lost My salvation sent from heaven Nailing my sin to a cross Oh but God All the wreckage of my choices You have turned to life from ashes Lifted from death risen with Him Now I stand in confidence All the wreckage of my choices You have turned to life from ashes Lifted from death risen with Him Now I stand in confidence Rich in mercy how You loved me Too much to let me stay lost My salvation sent from heaven Nailing my sin to a cross Oh Rich in mercy how You loved me Too much to let me stay lost My salvation sent from heaven Nailing my sin to a cross Oh but God Oh but God Oh but God Oh but God

Day by day running along this race Sometimes I fall astray and I might again But every time You lead me back to life You never leave my side remind me again Your goodness makes me wanna sing Your mercy brings me to my knees Your faithfulness is with me 'till the end And Your kindness makes me want to repent Jesus I repent Patient grace mercy that far outweighs Even my worst mistakes there's no greater love I can't thank You enough Your goodness makes me wanna sing Your mercy brings me to my knees Your faithfulness is with me 'till the end And Your kindness makes me want to repent Jesus I repent I'm turning from sin I'm turning to Christ What a joy it is To follow You to follow You I throw off the weight I throw down my pride What a joy it is To follow You to follow You You're washing my heart You're renewing my mind What a joy it is To follow You really follow You It's freedom from death And it's fullness of life What a joy it is To follow You Your goodness makes me wanna sing Your mercy brings me to my knees Your faithfulness is with me 'till the end And Your kindness makes me want to repent Jesus I repent
