What's your favorite Praise and worship song?

The Wonderful Cross

When I survey the wornderful cross
On which the Prince of Glory died,
My richest gain I count but loss
And pour contempt on all my pride.

See from His head, His hands, His feet
Sorrow and love flow mingled down
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet?
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

O the wonderful cross, O the wonderful cross
Bids me come and die and find that I may truly live.
O the wonderful cross, O the wonderful cross
All who gather here by faith draw near and bless His name.

Were the whole realm of nature mine,
That were an offering far too small.
Love so amazing so divine-
Demands my life, my soul, my all.
 
I Call Him Love

Some called Him a prophet
Some called Him a saint
Some couldn’t believe their eyes
Or the words He had to say
Some called Him crazy
Some thought He was strange
But I have felt His touch and
I’ll never be the same


I call Him love
I call Him mercy
I called Him out of my darkness and pain
And He answered my need
I call Him love
I call Him healing
He is the one who has filled me with hope
And restored life to me
I call Him love


Some call Him a mystery
A power without a face
Some feel He’s a distant father
That they could not embrace
But I have felt His touch and
I’ll never be the same


Repeat chorus


Cause He reached out to me
I’m overwhelmed by the grace I have received



Repeat chorus

I Choose You
Sung by Point of Grace

John Waller, Jason Hoard, Scott Johnson, Matt Adkins



All our mind's attention
All our hearts affection
Every heart-cry, every rhyme
Everybody's worshipping something

All our life's devotion
Has been set in motion
Religions dozen for a dime
Everybody's worshipping something

'Cause that's what we were made to do

Chorus
And I choose You
All my attention, affection
And all my devotion's for You
If everybody's worshipping something
I choose You

You are beyond conception
Defying definition
And You knew me before time

Centuries of pagans
Idols fill the nations
But You are Lord to me and mine
Everybody's worshipping something

'Cause that's what we were made to do...oh oh

Chorus

Before I chose You, You first chose me
I worship You, You alone are worthy

You alone deserve it-all of my worship
Lord I choose You

You are God Alone
Phillips Craig & Dean
Album: Let the Worshippers Arise


You are not a god
Created by human hands
You are not a god
Dependant on any mortal man
You are not a god
In need of anything we can give
By Your plan, that’s just the way it is

Chorus:
You are God alone
From before time began
You were on Your throne
Your are God alone
And right now
In the good times and bad
You are on Your throne
You are God alone

You’re the only God
Whose power none can contend
You’re the only God
Whose name and praise will never end
You’re the only God
Who’s worthy of everything we can give
You are God
And that’s just the way it is

Repeat Chorus


Unchangeable
Unshakable
Unstoppable
That’s what You are

Heaven
Album: Los Lonely Boys (2004)
Sung by: Los Lonely Boys

Vamanos!

Save me from this prison
Lord, help me get away
'Cause only you can save me now
From this misery

Well I've been lost in my own place
And I'm getting' weary
How far is heaven?
And I know that I need to change
My ways of living
How far is heaven?
Lord, can you tell me?

I've been locked up way too long
In this crazy world
How far is heaven?
I just keep on prayin', Lord
I just keep on livin'
How far is heaven?
(Oh, Lord, can you tell me?)
How far is heaven?
(I just gotta know how far it is)
How far is heaven?
(Oh, Lord, can you tell me?)

'Cause I know
there's a better place
In this place I'm livin'
How far is heaven?
So I just got to show some faith
And just keep on givin'
How far is heaven?
(Oh, Lord can you tell me)
How far is heaven?
(I just gotta know how far it is)
How far is heaven?
(Oh, Lord, can you tell me?)
How far is heaven?
I just gotta know how far
I just wanna know how far

When Love Comes to Town
Album: Rattle And Hum 1988 ( Not sure on the date )
Sung by: U2

I was a sailor, I was lost at sea
I was under the waves before love rescued me
I was a fighter, I could turn on a thread
Now I stand accused of the things I've said

Love comes to town, I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town, I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

I used to make love under a red sunset
I was making promises I was soon to forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town

I ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue, I was dazed and in a dream
As the music played, I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town

When love comes to town, I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town, I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice when they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide

When love comes to town, I'm gonna catch that train
When love comes to town, I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
But I did what I did before love came to town

As of right now, its You Are Good, by Israel Houghton. Its an awsome praise song! :-D
 
For the moment its "No One Like You" by David Crowder. But my favorite generally changes every week. :)
 
Artist: Todd Agnew
Album: Grace Like Rain
Song: Grace Like Rain

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see so clearly

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, washed away

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Chorus

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing Your praise
Than when we first begun

Chorus

Chorus
 
I like "You are Good", and "Shout to the Lord". Their awesome!
 
I remember this one song that we would always sing at Kids Quest that made me remember why I love God. I'll only put the Chorus because lots of artists have made their own verses and I can't seem to find an original.

Awesome God

Our God, is an Awesome God,
He reigns from Heaven above
With wisdom, power and Love,
Our God is an Awesome God!


It sends shivers down my spine when ever I hear it.
 
"I could sing of your Love forever" also gets the shivers goin' .
 
Take This Life
Written by Shawn McDonald and Chris Stevens

As I'm standing here, staring into the mirror
See the figure of a man trying to take a stand
And live for something more
Integrity is what I need and honor to my soul I feed
To give it up, pack it in, getting rid of all my sin that's weighing me down
Won't You come and fill
I want You to come and make me more real

Take this life, won't You change this life
Come and make me whole
Won't You take this life, won't You change this life
Come and make me whole

In my pursuit of what is real
My heart is longing with a need to feel my soul come alive
I trudge and I step through the height and the death
Of a long narrow as I'm growing old
And soon I will be home
 
The Heart of Worship
Matt Redman
When the music fades,
All is stripped away, and I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart

I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself is not what you have required.
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear;
You're looking into my heart.

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you
All about you Jesus.
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about you,
All about you Jesus.

King of endless worth
No one could express
How much you deserve.
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is yours, every single breath.

I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself is not what you have required.
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear;
You're looking into my heart.

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you
All about you Jesus.
I'm sorry Lord for the thing I've made it
When it's all about you,
All about you Jesus.

I love that song. It always makes me think.
 
Here's another one of my favorites.

How Great is Our God

The splendor of the King
Clothed in majesty
Let all the earth rejoice,
All the earth rejoice
He wraps himself in light
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at his voice, trembles at his voice

Chorus:
How great is our God
Sing with me
How great is our God

And all will see
How great, how great
Is our God

Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the End, Beginning and the End
The Godhead, Three in One
Father, Spirit, Son
The Lion and the Lamb
Lion and the Lamb

Chorus

Name above all names
Worthy of our praise
My heart will sing how great
Is our God
