Facedown...In Worship With a Friend

These are the lyrics for the song, "Facedown" by Matt Redman. I really need to cough up the money and purchase this CD...Matt Redman's music speaks to me and brings me into a very special place of worship with Christ. The words to this song just make me want to fall to my knees with uplifted hands and meet with Him, oblivious to anything else going on around me!

Welcomed in to the courts of the King
I've been ushered in to Your presence
Lord, I stand on Your merciful ground
Yet with every step tread with reverence

And I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around
Yes, I'll fall facedown
As Your glory shines around

Who is there in the heavens like You?
And upon the earth, who's Your equal?
You are far above, You're the highest of heights
We are bowing down to exalt You

So let Your glory shine around
Let Your glory shine around
King of glory, here be found
King of glory

"More Than a Friend" by Jeremy Riddle...This song is one of my current songs of choice to listen to daily...it floods me with very true emotion, because the words speak so much to what Christ is to me.

In the quiet of my soul
In the stillness I hear Your voice call
And I am overwhelmed
And I am lost for words
To describe You

Jesus, You're more than a friend
Jesus, You're more than my heart could ever express
Your love and Your grace never fail me
Your merciful touch always heals me
You bring joy to my soul
Joy to my soul

My heart longs to worship You, my King
And I long to bring You a pleasing offering
And I am overwhelmed
And I am lost for words
To describe You

Jesus, You're more than a friend
Jesus, You're more than my heart could ever express
Your love and Your grace never fail me
Your merciful touch always heals me
You bring joy to my soul
Joy to my soul
