LYRICS
The Light in Me By Steve Beck 2024 Lord, send out your power. Lord, I need your grace to face this very hour. Make your presence known. Lord, I need more faith. Can’t make it on my own. Raise your Spirit up in me. Give me eyes that I might see. You have been the light in me. Lord, I love the truth, And the Spirit and the bride are calling you. Say the end has come, And destroy and overthrow the Evil One. Raise your Spirit up in me. Give me words that I might speak. You have been the light in me. Oh, when you come to claim your bride You’ll find us praying, dressed in white Waiting ever patiently for you. Pure and spotless in your eyes We hope to share eternal life, Walking in the garden with our groom. Give us hearts to reach the lost. Teach us, Lord, to preach your cross. Jesus’ blood has paid the cost. Lord, this world’s insane. It seems no one cares for others or your name. Help me face this trial. As I show your love and trust you all the while. Raise your Spirit up in me. Let Him shine for all to see. You have been the light in me. You are the light ….in me. You are the light. For the kingdom, the power, And glory are yours. Amen! Amen.
Gone Astray (Isaiah 53) by Steve Beck 2023 Verse 1: The “Arm of God,” the Messiah became a child. He had no majesty to atract us, was meek and mild. He only spoke the truth, was rejected, and despised. He was arrested, oppressed, and thought worthless in our eyes. Chorus: We all like sheep have gone astray. We all have turned to our own way, So all our sins the Lord has placed On him to wash our sins away. Verse 2: The Lord caused him to suffer our punishment, And like a lamb led to the slaughter, He remained silent. He carried our sufferings, was beaten, and crushed. And He was pierced for our transgressions to show his love. Repeat Chorus above: Bridge: He poured out his life unto death for you and me. He will justify many, and bring us peace. By his wounds we are healed, forgiven, set free. He will be raised to life, and will reign triumphantly. Repeat Chorus above twice: Ending: Lord, Jesus, Yeshua, our salvation. The “Arm of God,” Messiah, mighty to save. The “Lamb of God” who suffered, our redeemer. Thank you, Lord, for your sacrifice for me. Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness to me.
Roll Away the Stone By Steve Beck 2026 Intro: Lord, let your holy name be praised! Verse 1:Take this grave cloth from my face. I’m alive! I feel the blood pumping through my veins. I’m alive! I feel a weight’s been lifted from my heart. The Lord is giving me a brand new start. Roll away, roll away the stone. Chorus:Roll away, roll away the stone. Jesus gave a new life to me I’m no longer just dry bones. Roll away, roll away the stone. Verse 2: Now all my sins have been washed away. I’m alive! No turning back. It’s a brand new day. I’m alive! The breath of life has been given to me. Lord, it’s my pride and joy to bring you glory! Roll away, roll away the stone. (To chorus) Bridge: I dress in truth and righteousness, A shield of faith and readiness. I learn to speak the words of God. I’m saved and will teach about salvation. Lord, let your holy name be praised. Release your love in Jesus’ name. Lord, let your holy name be praised. Unleash your love through me I pray. Lord, let your holy name be praised. Lord, you are worthy of all my praise. Lord,let your holy name be praise. (To 1st verse.) Last Chorus: Roll away, roll away the stone. Jesus paid a great price for me. I’m no longer just my own. Roll away, roll away the stone. Ending: Roll away, roll away the stone. 4x Lord, let your holy name be praised!
Rivers of Living Water by Steve Beck 11/2025 Verse 1: Jesus was in the temple At the feast of Tabernacles. He stood, and with a loud voice told the people, Chorus 1: If you are thirsty come to me. If you are thirsty come to me and drink. If you believe in me the scriptures say, “Rivers of living water will flow from you.” If you believe in me the scriptures say, “Rivers of living water will flow from you.” Will flow from you. Verse 2: Jesus was in the temple, And once again He spoke to the people. If you hold onto my teachings You are really my desciples. And He said, Chorus 2: I am the light of the world. I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, But will have the light of life. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, But will have the light of life…..The light of life. Bridge: You have been the light within me. Lay a path of light before me. Help me shine your light Within this weary world. (Repeat 3X then Chorus 1) Ending: Will flow from you. “Rivers of living water will flow from you!”
I Saw You By Steve Beck I come here every day to pray to seek your face within the shade of this fig tree. I cry out and I bow down with my face upon the ground. Lord, please hear my plea. Lord, your people are enslaved. We are humbled and ashamed. Send Messiah here today, Oh. Then I thought I heard God say, Chorus: (In first chorus sing, "I SEE you.") "I saw you under your fig tree. I saw you bowing before me in sadness and in shame yet you honor my name. Truly you're one of Israel's sons. Truly you're one of Israel's sons. I saw you." So I prayed again today, and bowed down and sought God's face beneath this fig tree. There's no future here for me casting nets upon the sea. Lord, what will become of me? Then my brother came to me, and said, "We've found Him come and see." At first I doubted then believed, Oh. When Lord Jesus said to me, (to chorus) Truly you're one of Israel's sons. And I saw you under your fig tree. I saw you bowing before me with no future and no hope. Now I've come to bring you both. The work I've begun in you I intend to see it through. Only the truth, there's no deceit within you. Truly you're one of Israel's sons. Truly you're one of Israel's sons. Truly you're one of Israel's sons. My Lord and my God, you hear the prayers of your sons and daughters. My Lord and my God, you hear, forgive, and heal the land, my Lord. Hallelujah!
You Will Be Saved
By Steve Beck
I heard the good news today,
And it stirred in my heart the beginnings of faith
That there's a God who died for my sins.
If I'm living by faith I'll live forever with him.
Chorus:
If you believe in your heart that Jesus is Lord confess it
Proclaim it.
And you believe in your heart God raised him from the grave
You will be saved.
Anyone who calls on his name
Will never be put to shame.
Because Jesus has shown us the way
To be with him in heaven, and live in his presence. (To chorus)
Jesus hung on a cross next to a thief
Who believed Jesus was a savior and a king.
He said to Jesus, "Remember me."
And then Jesus promised him paradise,
"You'll be there this day with me." Oh! (To chorus)
Believe in your heart, confess with your mouth, you will be saved
Lord, God you are so good to me.
Good to me, oh Lord you’re so good to me.
Reach Out Your Hands By Steve Beck 1/3/2025 Verse 1: It was a stormy night, And something told me not to fly, Then my plane rocked side to side. I saw my life before my eyes. I prayed, “Save me today, and I’ll serve you the rest of my days.” Then I felt a peace beyond my understanding. As my plane fell from the sky, I knew I would be alright. And then I walked away a new believer that day. Chorus: How many times has the Lord been good to me, Has the Lord intervened? When I cried out He answered me. (2nd X “When I was blind and couldn’t see.”) His name is I Am, and He lives eternally, But He is near for all who seek, Just reach out your hands. Reach out your hands. Verse 2: It was a moonless night, And I was lost in a mountain forest. Can’t see my hands before my face, So I call on my Lord and prayed, “I’m at the end of my rope. Oh, Lord show me which way to go.” And then the moon came out, only for a moment. And it shined on earth and sky, And it changed my (changed my) life. I saw the path up ahead, it would have been the end of me. (To Chorus) Ending: Oh, reach out your hands. Reach out your hands. Oh, reach out your hands. Reach out your hands. Reach out your hands.
Show Me the Way Back Home
By Steve Beck
Chorus:
Show me the way back home.
In my weakness, I can’t find it.
I can’t find it on my own.
But with your grace I know I’ll find my way back home.
I have sinned against you and chosen my own way.
Didn’t trust your plan. I didn’t have the faith.
Offending you who loves me so much.
I pray you’ll wash me clean, so I can feel your touch.
How long, Lord, will you hide your face from me?
How long must I suffer? My heart’s full of grief.
How long, Lord, will you keep yourself from me?
Shine upon me, Lord, and help me see. (To chorus)
Since Adam’s time you kept your promises.
I have been the one who put myself in your stead.
I now recommit to you with all my heart and soul.
I will be your son, and you my Lord. (To chorus)
My precious child,
You’ve already found your way back home.
My Provider’s Got My Back
By Steve Beck
I know that God is watching over me.
I trust He’ll lead me to a place of peace.
Mercy and love will surely follow me,
So I dance in the joy of the Lord.
I know that God is watching out for me.
He’s with me as I walk through scary streets,
And He has saved me from my enemies,
So I lift up the name of the Lord.
Chorus:
I know with you there is no lack,
And onto you I’m holding fast.
I know that you are gonna make me laugh.
Jehovah Jirah’s got my back.
God my provider’s got my back. (So relax.)
I know that God is pouring over me
All kinds of blessings I had not foreseen.
I want to lay my life before my king,
So I praise Him with love as I sing.
I will not fret about what I will eat.
I will not stress about no shoes on my feet.
I’m not upset about the things that I need.
I know the Lord will provide them for me.
Still I Will Praise You
By Steve Beck
I lost my wife, and my children, too,
And the family pets, and my business fell through.
Now I've lost my home, so I'll have to move,
And I hurt my knees, and I broke a tooth.
Chorus:
Lord I know that you....are gonna see me through,
But what I miss the most...is giving back to you.
Now I feel all I have to give you....is my broken heart.
All I have to give....is my broken heart.
Still I will praise you....Oh, Lord.
Still I will praise you...Oh, Lord.
Now my friends think...I must be to blame,
And what I've done wrong...is now a guessing game.
Well, the good Lord gives, and He takes away,
And now I've found myself....in a desolate place.
I will praise the Lord my God.
I will lift His holy name...bless His name forever.
Hallelujah!
Every Eye Will See Him By Steve Beck 2024 Verse 1: They will hear with their ears, but will not understand. They will see with their eyes, but will not perceive its meaning. For the hearts of these people are hard. And their ears will not hear, and their eyes will not see, And their hearts will not understand. And they will not turn to me, and let me heal them. And they will not turn to me, and let me heal them. Oh. Chorus: No eye has seen, and no ear has heard, and no mind has conceived. What God has prepared (what God has prepared) for those who love him. Oh, look! He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him. Repeat Verse 1: Bridge: All who have ears, let them hear what the Spirit sings to his bride, “I love you.” Repeat Chorus: Ending: Oh, look! He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him. And every eye will see him. And I will see him.
