Song Lyrics
Who You Say I Am
[Verse] Who am I that the highest King, would welcome me. I was lost but He brought me in. Oh His love for me. Oh His love for me.
[Chorus] Who the Son sets free, oh is free indeed. I’m a child of God. Yes I am.
[Verse] Free at last, He has ransomed me. His grace runs deep. While I was a slave to sin, Jesus died for me. Yes He died for me.
[Chorus] In my Father's house, there’s a place for me. I’m a child of God. Yes I am.
[Bridge] I am chosen not forsaken. I am who You say I am. You are for me not against me. I am who You say I am.
Trust In God
[Verse] Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine. He’s been my fourth man in the fire, time after time. Born of His Spirit. Washed in His blood. And what He did for me on Calvary, is more than enough.
[Chorus] I trust in God, my Saviour, the One who will never fail. He will never fail.
[Verse] Perfect submission. All is at rest. I know the author of tomorrow, has ordered my steps. So this is my story, and this is my song. I’m praising my risen King and Saviour, all the day long.
[Bridge] I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered. I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered. I sought the Lord and He heard and He answered. That’s why I trust Him. That’s why I trust Him.
