4him - Measure Of A Man

This world can analize and size you up and throw you on the scales
They can I.Q. you and run you through
Their rigorous details
They can do their best to rate you
And they'll place you on the charts
And then back it up with scientific smarts
But there's more to what you're worth
Than their human eyes can see
Oh, I say the measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand
How wealthy or intelligent you are
'Cause I've found out the measure of a man
God knows and understands
For He looks inside to the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
The measure of a man
Well, you can doubt your worth
And search for who you are
And where you stand
But God made you in His image
When He formed you in His hands
And He looks at you with mercy
And He sees you through His love
You're His child and that will always be enough
For there's more to what you're worth
Than you could ever comprehend
Oh I say the measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand
How wealthy or intelligent you are
'Cause I've found out the measure of a man
God knows and understands
For He looks inside
To the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
The measure of a man
You can spend your life persuing physical perfection
There is so much more
More than ever meets the eye
For God looks through the surface
And He defines your worth by what is on the inside
I say the measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand
How wealthy or intelligent you are
'Cause I've found out the measure of a man
God knows and understands
For He looks inside
To the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
Oh, I say the measure of
The measure of a man
Is not how tall you stand,
How wealthy or intelligent you are
Oh, I've found the measure of a man
God knows and understands it
For He looks to the bottom of your heart
And what's in the heart defines
Yeah, what's in the heart defines
Yeah, what's in the heart defines
The measure of a man
I know, I know

4him - This Is My Declaration

There's a rhythm in my wrist
There's a pounding in my heart
The steady beat of lie
Moving in my deepest part


It's evidence to me
That each moment's Yours to give
So with every breath I take
And every day I live


CHORUS
This is mine,
This will be my declaration
Moment to moment
My life through
Everyday,
This will be my declaration
Oh Jesus I'm trusting you
Trusting You


Find my spirit's like my flesh
Got no power on my own
Salvation's Yours to give
It belongs to You alone


You saved me years ago
And You save me day to day
You'll deliver me from me
So every step of the way


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - Surrender

I could hold on to who I am
And never let go and find Your heart
But what would I gain
My life would be in vain
And I could head down a thousand roads
Just going my way out on my own
But I wouldn't get far
'Cause I need You more than anything
More and more than the air I breathe


I lift my hands, I lift my heart
I surrender all
I'm letting go, falling into You
I surrender all


You are the maker of all things
The giver of all I'll ever need
And I'm so amazed
You would live inside of me
Come and live inside of me


repeat chorus


Mold and make me with Your fire
And consume me with Your love
Until Your will is my desire
All that I have and hold on to
Surrender
All that I am I give to You
I give to You

4him - Psalm 112

We only get so many times
to ride around this sun
And so many times to see a full moon shine
When day is done if anything's worth doing
Then it's worth doing right
So I looked for wisdom on how to
best live this brief life I have found


Blessed is he who fears the Lord
Who finds delight in His commands
Blessed is he who fears the Lord
Who finds delight in His commands


I guess that we all gamble on some
truth to guide our days
And we trust that it will bring us joy and meaning
On the way
I've got friends who feel betrayed by all the things
They once believed
So with everything I've seen I've gotta say
It seems to me


repeat chorus


Please hear this from a humble heart
But I feel like "Exhibit A"
In the evidence that God is good to those
Who live by faith, that's why I believe


repeat chorus


He will not be shaken
He will have no fear
He will then remember

4him - One Foot in the Water

You can't have one foot in the water
And one foot in the sand
You've got to make a decision
You have to take a stand


In this world that's always changing
Where the lines are hard to see
We must rise above the compromise
And then we will be free


Chorus
Free to love
Free to give
Give up everything we hold on to
If we leave this world behind then
We'll be free to live
We will be free in Christ
We can't have one foot in the water
And one foot in the sand


I have wandered through the mountains
I have made with my own hands
But what good is a kingdom
If it's built on shifting sand


It was only just an illusion
It was never meant to stand
I am here in my confession
And you've made me understand


REPEAT CHORUS


When you gonna wake up
It's time for you to wake up

4him - Shelter in the Rain

How long have you been
Waiting on a little sun to shine
To take away the night
Hold on for you are never alone
Through the darkest skies
There is a guiding light


For our God is a refuge
Where the weary can run and hide
in times of trouble
He’ll be the calm in the midst of the storm
‘Till it passes by
Oh, you need to know


CHORUS
There’s a shelter in the rain
There’s a hope for your tomorrow
There’s a cover through the pain
When you’re underneath the weather
Jesus is the shelter in the rain


Sometimes when hope is hard to find
We’ve got to walk by faith
Until we see the way
Hold tight for we are promised in time
Those who patiently wait
Will never wait in vain


For we know God is faithful
He’s a fortress to run into
In times of trouble
He’ll cover us with the wings of his love
‘Till we make it through
Oh, we got to know


REPEAT CHORUS


So tell me why
Why could you ever run away
From the cover out into the storm
Just know in time
The rain’s gonna bring a brighter day
And the clouds will be gone
But while you wait on the Lord

4him - You Are Holy

Here before your throne
I've come to worship You
And worship You alone
Here within my soul
A song begins to rise
Until it overflows
You are holy
You are holy
I will lift my voice to You
And sing it to the angels


CHORUS
You are holy
You are holy
We will offer You our praise
In a mighty chorus
You are holy
You are holy
Wonderful in all your ways
Holy You are holy, Lord


When Your love breaks through
And I am swept away
By just the glimpse of you
Then You make me new
And I am nothing less
Than what I find in You
You are holy
You are holy
I will lift my voice to You
And sing it to the angels


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE
Unto the One
Who sits on the throne
And unto the Lamb
Be all blessing and honor
And glory and power and praise


REPEAT BRIDGE


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - Who You Are

When I see the sun
Coming up in the sky
When I see the stars
In the still of the night
Then I, I see who You are
When I feel the breath of
The wind in my face
I rest in the warmth
Of a Father's embrace
Then I, I feel You Are


CHORUS
And who You are
Is all I'll ever want to be
Take my life
Make what You will of me
'Cause You're constantly changing my heart
Leading me out of the dark
Bringing me closer to who You are


I'm ready to run
And I'm ready to dance
Live every moment
Leave nothing to chance
'Cause I, I know who You are
I consider the Cross
And the price that You paid
I know that You live
'Cause the stone's rolled away
Oh I, I love who You are


REAPEAT CHORUS


'Cause You're constantly changing my heart
Leading me out of the dark
And You're bringing me closer to who You are

4him - Who, Who Are These Beside the Chilly Wave

Who, who are these beside the chilly wave,
Just on the borders of the silent grave,
Shouting Jesu’s power to save,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb”?

Refrain

“Sweeping through the gates” of the new Jerusalem,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb,”
“Sweeping through the gates” of the new Jerusalem,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb.”

These, these are they who, in their youthful days,
Found Jesus early, and in wisdom’s ways
Proved the fullness of His grace,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb.”

Refrain

These, these are they who, in affliction’s woes,
Ever have found in Jesus calm repose,
Such as from a pure heart flows,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb.”

Refrain

These, these are they who, in the conflict dire,
Boldly have stood amid the hottest fire;
Jesus now says, “come up higher,”
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb.”

Refrain

Safe, safe upon the ever shining shore,
Sin, pain, and death, and sorrow are all o’er;
Happy now and evermore,
“Washed in the blood of the Lamb.”

Refrain

4him - Who, O Lord, with Thee Abiding

Who, O Lord, with Thee abiding,
In Thy House shall be Thy guest?
Who, his feet to Zion turning,
In Thy holy hill shall rest?
He that ever walks uprightly,
Does the right without a fear,
When he speaks, he speaks not lightly,
But with truth and love sincere.

He that slanders not his brother,
Does not evil to a friend;
To reproaches of another
He refuses to attend.
Wicked men win not his favor,
But the good who fear the Lord;
From his vow he will not waver,
Though it bring him sad reward.

Freely to the needy lending,
No excess he asks again;
And the innocent befriending,
He desires not praise of men.
Doing this, and evil spurning,
He shall nevermore be moved;
This the man with Thee sojourning,
This the man by Thee approved.

4him - Who May Ascend

Who may ascend to the hill of the Lord
And who may stand in His holy place?
He who has clean hands and a pure heart
All who are covered by grace (repeat)

Here in God's presence we shall receive
Mercy and kindness, faith to believe
Blessing and power, healing of pain
Hope towards the future,
strength for today

4him - Walk Softly in Springtime

Walk softly in springtime, to hear the grass sing
its whispering carols to Jesus our king;
to see the new flowers bright colors display;
to tell all the children of glad Easter day.

Sing gently in springtime, and join with the birds,
who warble their music, a song without words,
that floats through the air and that reaches the sky,
a message of love to the Father on high.

Praise gladly in springtime when earth seems to glow
with new life and color in all things that grow;
for all nature's children are happy to say,
"Rejoice, for the Savior is risen today."

4him - Walk On

The wind blows hard
The climb is slow
Shadows are dark
I stumble on these stones
But my Lord, You are near
I will not fear


CHORUS
I chose to take this road called faith
I will walk on
I trust that You will lead me through
I will walk on


No end in view
At times I feel alone and the signs are few
But at least they all say home,
And You my Lord, You're the hope I hold
Strength of my soul


REPEAT CHORUS


Because of love
There was an awful hill You climbed
And because of love
I'll live my faith
One step at a time


The course is set
Life's hard but yet
We will walk on
Around each bend, until the end
We will walk on


We chose to take this road called faith
We will walk on
We trust that You will lead me through
We will walk on


We Will Walk On
We Will Walk On


CHORUS

4him - Waiting

I know, you know,
We all have taken blows
At times the weight is more
Than you and I can bear
I hurt, you hurt
We live and breathe the word
But through it all it's good to know
We need to know
That Jesus is there And you will never have to face the hurt alone


CHORUS
When you're waiting
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go
Waiting through the hard times
Will only make you strong, hold on


I cry, you cry,
Life takes us by surprise
Before you know,
It'll catch you unaware
I need, you need,
Much more than sympathy
But through it all it's good to know
We need to know
That Jesus is there
And you will never ever have to cry alone


REPEAT CHORUS


When you're waiting
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go


You will never ever have to cry alone


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - The Love of God

The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
It goes beyond the highest star,
And reaches to the lowest hell;
The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
God gave His Son to win;
His erring child He reconciled,
And pardoned from his sin.


CHORUS
O love of God, how rich and pure!
How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure
The saints’ and angels’ song.


When years of time shall pass away,
And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall,
When men, who here refuse to pray,
On rocks and hills and mountains call,
God’s love so sure, shall still endure,
All measureless and strong;
Redeeming grace to Adam’s race
The saints’ and angels’ song.


REPEAT CHORUS


Could we with ink the ocean fill,
And were the skies of parchment made,
Were every stalk on earth a quill,
And every man a scribe by trade,
To write the love of God above,
Would drain the ocean dry.
Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
Though stretched from sky to sky.


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - The Center of the Mark

To Love God, love people
That's the center of the mark


In this life some things are bound to change
But one thing remains the same
We all need love


Time goes on, it moves like a hurricane
And through all the wind and rain
We all need love


As this world just keeps on turnin' round and round
There are treasures to be found
If we just let compassion lead the way


CHORUS
Draw back your bow, let love go
Shoot straight for the heart
With all of your might, set you sight
Take aim from the start
To love God, love people
That's the center of the mark


Every day, through what is and is to come
When all has been said and done
We all need love


So Jesus came, a gift from the heart of God
He gave us His life because
We all need love


And the love that death could not keep in the grave
Is alive in us today
So we must live to show the world the way


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE
For the world is the target
And the arrow is the cross
As we set out on this journey
Lets obey the call from the heart of God
Let us Love at any cost


Draw back you bow let love go....


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - Strange Way to Save the World

I’m sure he must have been surprised
At where this road had taken him
Cause never in a million lives
Would he have dreamed of Bethlehem


CHANNEL
And standing at the manger
He saw with his own eyes
The message from the angel come to life
And Joseph said


CHORUS
Why me, I’m just a simple man of trade
Why Him with all the rulers in the world
Why here inside this stable filled with hay
Why her, she’s just an ordinary girl
Now I’m not one to second guess
What angels have to say
But this is such a strange way to save the World


To think of how it could have been
If Jesus had come as He deserved
There would have been no Bethlehem
No lowly shepherds at His birth


CHANNEL
But Joseph knew the
Reason love had to reach so far
And as he held the Savior in his arms
He must have thought


REPEAT CHORUS


Now, I’m not one to second guess
What angels have to say
But this is such a strange
Way to save the world
Such a strange way, this is
Such a strange way
A strange way to save the world
A strange way to save the world

4him - All the Evidence I Need

Well I've seen the news
And I've heard the questions
Seems the thing to do
Is to keep second guessing
The one who made the earth and sky
I guess it's okay just to wonder why
But I know the truth, and I know I'm certain
It's not a mystery, It's not behind a curtain
The veil was torn many year ago
And the Spirit stayed just to let us know
That the answer is not in the stars way up high
But the answer is found in believing in Christ


CHORUS
So I am walking by faith and not by sight
And I am trusting in invisible things
For I have felt in my heart
What I can't see with my eyes
'Cause the proof is living inside of me
I've been set free
And this is all the evidence I need


There are pyramids
In the land of Egypt
There are those who say
That they contain the secrets
To where we're from and why we're here
But I think God's Word makes it crystal clear
That the ancient tombs in the barren desert
Do not hold the clues
They do not hold the answers
The truth has already been revealed
For it's moving in me and I know that it's real
'Cause it's not in the grave for the skeptics to see
But he lives in the hearts of the ones who believe


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE
'Cause I know Your love reaches out to me
In my weakest of days
For I've felt Your touch In my hearts of hearts
Though I've never even seen Your face


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - Window with a View

Sometimes I'm caught in a struggle
But you go straight to the hurt
Before I call out Your name
I find your mercy is already at work


Where could I hide from Your spirit
Why should I run from Your love
For you've walked my heart
Every secret part
There's nothing I can cover up
No there's nothing I can cover up


CHORUS
Through Your window with a view
Straight into my soul
Nothing in creation
Is hidden from Your window with a view
How else could You know what we're going through
There is no mystery to You
You've got a window
A window with a view


So many times I have questioned
In moments of my despair
Is someone watching this world
And is there really anybody who cares


But I have reached a conclusion
Why should I have any doubt
For the part of me no one knows or sees
You've already figured out
You've already figured out


REPEAT CHORUS


BRIDGE
Now I can draw the shutters
Try to hide behind the pain
Live beneath the covers
But there is nothing that can keep You away, away


REPEAT CHORUS

4him - I Know You Now

I looked at faith
I almost walked away
But I looked again
I found the nerve to close my eyes and say the words
To ask you in
And I heard no heavenly choir
No angels in whit attire
i got no amazing super hum omnipresent pow but....


CHORUS
I know You now
I know You now
I know You're in my heart
I know You now
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
I know You now
I look at peace, that once was out of reach
And now it's here
i read Your word that some believe is so absurd
But I hold dear, yea
'Cause You loved me with your dying breath
You saved me when You conquered death
