Student Music Lyrics

Graves into Gardens

Verse 1
I searched the world but it couldn’t fill me
Man’s empty praise and treasures that fade
Are never enough
Then You came along and put me back together
And every desire is now satisfied here in Your love

Chorus
Oh there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You

Verse 2
I’m not afraid to show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord You’ve seen them all
And You still call me friend
‘Cause the God of the mountain
Is the God of the valley
There’s not a place
Your mercy and grace won’t find me again

Bridge 1
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can

Bridge 2
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can

Goodness of God

Verse 1
I love You Lord
Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I’ve been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
I will sing of the goodness of God

Chorus 1
All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
I will sing of the goodness of God

Verse 2
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In darkest night
You are close like no other
I’ve known You as a father
I’ve known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God

Bridge
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me
With my life laid down
I’m surrendered now
I give You everything
Your goodness is running after
It’s running after me

Broken Vessel

Verse 1
All these pieces broken and scattered
In mercy gathered, mended and whole
Empty handed, but not forsaken
I’ve been set free, I’ve been set free.

Chorus
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
Was blind but now I see

Bridge1
Oh I can see You now
I can see the love in Your eyes
Laying yourself down
Raising up the broken to life

Verse 2
You take our failure, You take our weakness
You set your treasure in jars of clay
So take this heart Lord, I’ll be Your vessel
The world to see Your life in me

Bridge 2
Oh…..

Battle Belongs

When all I see is the battle, You see my vict’ry
When all I see is the mountain, You see a mountain moved
And as I walk through the shadow, Your love surrounds me
There’s nothing to fear now for I am safe with You

So when I fight, I’ll fight on my knees with my hands lifted high

And ev’ry fear I lay at Your feet. I’ll sing through the night
O God
The battle belongs to You

Gratitude

Verse 1
All my words fall short
I got nothing new
How could I express
All my gratitude

Verse 2
I could sing these songs
As I often do
But every song must end
And You never do

Chorus 1
So I throw up my hands
And praise You again and again
‘Cause all that I have is a hallelujah hallelujah

And I know it’s not much
But I’ve nothing else fit for a king
Except for a heart singing hallelujah
Hallelujah

Verse 3
I’ve got one response
I’ve got just one move
With my arms stretched wide
I will worship You

Bridge
Come on my soul
Oh don’t you get shy on me
Lift up your song
‘Cause you’ve got a lion inside of those lungs
Get up and praise the Lord
