The Vine 04:00
You are the vine and one of the branches is mine/ I am yours and you are mine/ I am a seed and you are the life that I need/ Spirit fill me to the brim that I may bear fruit/ Father teach me faithfulness that I may stay close to you/ Jesus when my time comes teach me how to die/ And let my prayer be always that I am yours and you are mine/ You are I AM and I am because You are/ The Kingdom of Heaven is a vineyard overflowing with holy wine/ When the harvest has finally been gathered we will drink of His love divine/ The Kingdom of Heaven is a vineyard/ Many branches yet a single vine/ For all of eternity I’ll sing these words
2.
In the beginning the Father sings his melody and the words give birth to all the earth/ every star and galaxy/ Now creator and creation sing a song of redemption/ Can you hear it?/ All that has been made is being made anew/ All that has been lost is being found in You/ All that has been dead will taste of life once more and all of this is just a glimpse of what You have in store/ Out of the silence the Word humbly comes to dwell with man and his words cut deep to awake our sleep for the Kingdom is at hand/ Now the Son of Man and the sons of men sing a song of salvation/ Sing a new hallelujah all you children of the King/ Shout out a loud Hosanna and join the song that Heaven sings
3.
Darkness falls as the Son of Man, he calls out “It is finished.”/ But is it finished?/ The curtain tore from the top on down to the floor/ How could this be the prophecy? This ain’t victory/ He’s as dead as my faith and we’re all alone/ He sits in a grave/ He should sit on a throne/ Oh God help me to see/ Saturday ends as slowly as it began/ This is not a sabbath/ This isn’t rest when the One that I love has no beat in His chest/ Sunday dawns with no relief/ The women declare that angels were there but it’s hard to believe/ I start running just to see/ The angels they said, “He’s gone ahead to Galilee.”/ Then out on the boat/ Out on the sea a voice calls out to me/ There’s a man on the shore and I know it’s the Lord/ But how could this be? You are who You say You are/ The Lion the Lamb/ The Great I AM/ Jesus You are
4.
Risen 04:10
In the darkness a light is rising drawing the farthest to the King/ Hope is coming down/ The lost are being found/ Behold the King of everything/ He is lifted high above/ He is Jesus/ He is love/ The Son of Man through whom life began/ He holds everything together/ Oh my Lord He is forever/ In the garden the tomb held his body/ In vain it was guarded by men who did not see/ Then came third day’s light/ The stone is rolled away/ He is alive/ He is risen/ He is risen indeed/ and we are free/ the tomb is empty/ and together we sing/ He is risen and alive in me
5.
Overcome 04:04
Jesus you have overcome the grave/ Jesus you have freed me from sin/ You who have begun this work in me will see it through to the very end/ for great is thy faithfulness/ Overcome me so completely that all of me is washed away and all of You is what remains/ Overcome me please Jesus teach me how to love like you/ Overcome me so that all the world will see you/ Jesus you have overcome the grave/ The death in me has no more songs to sing/ For in your name the dead come alive/ In your reign you alone are king/ Oh Lord overcome me until victory’s won/ till You and I are one/ with the glory of Your Son/ so that I may overcome
6.
White Stones 04:59
The depths are getting deeper today/ the heights seem so much further away/ and everything is telling me that I’m only what they say/ Where’s the hope?/ Where are You?/ But the Lord has not abandoned me today/ His light is pushing darkness away/ and though trials and tears will come my way/ I will stand and say that there is hope/ there is truth/ I am only who You say I am/ Only You can name me/ You have sole authority/ I am a child of the great I AM/ Only He can name me/ In Him I am set free/ The enemy is crouching at my door and telling me that I am nothing more than past mistakes, regrets, and sins that I’ve dealt with before/ Jesus Christ is knocking on my door and He’s telling me that I am so much more and His righteousness has crushed the serpent right there on the floor/ Show me the white stone/ Won’t you whisper my name?/ Show me your Kingdom come/ I am crying out/ You respond with love telling me to forever proclaim
7.
Inheritance 06:10
Your love is casting out my fear and teaching me how to believe that even with the road unclear I can trust the One who leads/ Your love is now and forevermore always completely the same/ So I’ll die to who I was before and wholly embrace a new name/ That you gave me when you saved me and made me your child/ And now I see so clearly/ The sun never sets on your love/ Neither height nor depth/ Neither life nor death/ Can separate us from your love oh Lord/ Not my vilest deed/ Not who I used to be/ For You have redeemed my soul/ Your grace is casting out my guilt and teaching me how to receive the gifts that I’ve neither bought nor built/ For grace cannot be achieved/ Your mercy pours like a waterfall and my sins are washed away/ Baptized in freedom I throw off my chains/ I’m a son who once was a slave/ Then you saved me when you gave me the right to be your child/ And now I see/ I believe the sun never sets on your love/ Your love is our inheritance/ You died to make us Yours/ You live again as our recompense/ You are our reward
