Abide

(Verse 1)

For my waking breath

For my daily bread

I depend on you

I depend on you

For the sun to rise

For my sleep at night

I depend on you

I depend on you

(Chorus)

You’re the way the truth and the life

You’re the well that never runs dry

I’m the branch and you are the vine

Draw me close and teach me to abide

(Verse 2)

Where the Spirit leads

As I’m following

I depend on you

I depend on you

For the victories

Still in front of me

I depend on you

I depend on you

(Chorus)

You’re the way the truth and the life

You’re the well that never runs dry

I’m the branch and you are the vine

Draw me close and teach me to abide

(Verse 3)

When I pass through death

As I enter rest

I depend on you

I depend on you

For eternal life

To be raised with Christ

I depend on you

I depend on you

(Chorus)

You’re the way the truth and the life

You’re the well that never runs dry

I’m the branch and you are the vine

Draw me close and teach me to abide

I depend on you

I depend on you

Keep the Banner Flying High

(Verse 1)

Give me strength when I’m weary, O my Lord

Lift me up when I fall, O my Lord

Light a fire in my bones that an ocean cannot drown

Give me hope, give me strength until my work is done

(Chorus)

Oh, Jesus be my vision

Oh, the passion and the fire in my soul

We’ll keep the banner flying high

The banner flying high

(Verse 2)

In the valley of shadow, O my Lord

You will walk by our side, O my Lord

If we love not our lives

rather die than to deny

there’ll be crowns, there’ll be glory

when the morning comes

(Chorus)

Oh, Jesus be my vision

Oh, the passion and the fire in my soul

We’ll keep the banner flying high

The banner flying high

(Verse 3)

Those who wait on You patiently, O my Lord

Those who trust in Your word, O my Lord

they will soar, they will glide

like an eagle in the sky

they will walk, not be weary

till the work is done

(Chorus)

Oh, Jesus be my vision

Oh, the passion and the fire in my soul

We’ll keep the banner flying high

The banner flying…

(Bridge)

for His glory, standing shoulder to shoulder,

proud to bear His holy name

Sound the victory

our God is among us now!

Sound the victory

our God is among us now!

Among us now!

(Chorus)

Oh, Jesus be my vision

Oh, the passion and the fire in my soul

We’ll keep the banner flying high

The banner flying high

The banner flying high

There is a Redeemer

(Verse 1)

There is a Redeemer

Jesus, God’s own Son

Precious Lamb of God, Messiah

Holy One

Jesus My Redeemer

Name above all names

Precious Lamb of God, Messiah

O for sinners slain

(Chorus)

Thank you, O my Father

For giving us Your Son

And leaving Your Spirit till

The work on earth is done

(Verse 2)

When I stand in glory

I will see His face

There I’ll serve my King forever

In that holy place

(Chorus)

Thank you, O my Father

For giving us Your Son

And leaving Your Spirit till

The work on earth is done

And leaving Your Spirit till

The work on earth is done
