Graves Into Gardens
=================
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
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
I’m not afraid
To show You my weakness
My failures and flaws
Lord, You’ve seen ’em 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
Oh, there’s nothing better than You
There’s nothing better than You
Lord, there’s nothing
Nothing is better than You
(I know it’s true)
You turn mourning to dancing
You give beauty for ashes
You turn shame into glory
You’re the only one who can
You turn graves into gardens
You turn bones into armies
You turn seas into highways
You’re the only one who can
You’re the only one who can
Rattle
======
[Verse 1]
Saturday was silent
Surely it was through
But since when has impossible
Ever stopped You
[Verse 2]
Friday’s disappointment
Is Sunday’s empty tomb
Since when has impossible
Ever stopped You
[Chorus]
This is the sound
Of dry bones rattling
This is the praise
Make a dead man walk again
Open the grave
I’m coming out
I’m gonna live
Gonna live again
This is the sound
Of dry bones rattling
[Verse 3]
Pentecostal fire
Stirring something new
You’re not gonna run out of miracles
Anytime soon
[Verse 4]
Resurrection power
Runs in my veins too
I believe there’s another miracle
Here in this room!
[Chorus]
This is the sound
Of dry bones rattling
This is the praise
Make a dead man walk again
Open the grave
I’m coming out
I’m gonna live
Gonna live again
This is the sound
Of dry bones rattling
[Bridge 1]
My God is able to save
And deliver and heal
And restore anything that He wants to
Just ask the man
Who was thrown
On the bones of Elisha
If there’s anything that He can’t do
Just ask the stone
That was rolled
At the tomb in the garden
What happens when God says to move
I feel Him moving it now
I feel Him doing it now
I feel Him doing it now
Do it now, do it now
[Bridge 2]
I hear the sound (I hear the sound)
I hear the sound (I hear the sound)
I hear the sound (I hear the sound)
I hear the sound (I hear the sound)
And the bones began to rattle
(Rattle, rattle, rattle)
God said live (God said live)
Hear the word of the Lord
And this is what He said
Live
Live
Dry bones
Hear the word of the Lord
Live (live)
Live (live)
Surrounded
==========
[Verse 1]
There’s a table that You’ve prepared for me
In the presence of my enemies
It’s Your body and Your blood You’ve shed for me
This is how I fight my battles
[Pre-Chorus]
And I believe You’ve overcome
And I will lift my song of praise for what You’ve done
[Chorus]
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how I fight my battles
This is how
[Verse 2]
In the valley I know that You’re with me
And surely Your goodness and mercy follow me
So my weapons are praise and thanksgiving
This is how I fight my battles
[Bridge]
It may look like I’m surrounded but I’m surrounded by You
It may look like I’m surrounded but I’m surrounded by You
