Here For You

As I have talked to various people about this trip, I have heard comments about how great it is what I am doing for myself by going on this adventure, how great it is that I am going to serve the Swazi people, and I was saddened by these well-meaning Christians who have lost the focus on why we do what we do. This song has been my prayer for this trip and is a great reminder that whether we are serving our loved ones at home, in ministry in the US, or overseas somewhere, the ultimate reality for every Christian is that we are here (wherever that may be) for Him alone...all else (that others & we ourselves are blessed through serving) is icing on the cake!

Let our praise be Your welcome, let our songs be a sign
We are here for You, we are here for You
Let Your breath come from heaven, fill our hearts with Your life
We are here for You, we are here for You
To You our hearts are open, nothing here is hidden, You are our one desire
You alone are holy, only You are worthy, God let Your fire fall down

Let our shout be Your anthem, Your renown fill the skies
We are here for You, we are here for You
Let Your word move in power, let what’s dead come to life
We are here for You, we are here for You
To You our hearts are open, nothing here is hidden, You are our one desire
You alone are holy, only You are worthy, God let Your fire fall down
To You our hearts are open, nothing here is hidden, You are our one desire
You alone are holy, only You are worthy, God let Your fire fall down
We are here for You, Jesus,

We welcome You with praise, we welcome You with praise, almighty God of love, be welcome in this place
We welcome You with praise, we welcome You with praise, almighty God of love, be welcome in this place
Let every heart adore, let every soul awake, Almighty God of love, be welcome in this place
We welcome You with praise, we welcome You with praise, almighty God of love, be welcome in this place

Be welcome...be welcome...come and take Your rightful place.
