Be My song
Words & Music: Carissa Vann (ASCAP) | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann | Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars, Bass, Synth: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
I’m still bound to the chains You took away
I’m still a slave to sin and shame
Oh I need the cleansing fountain
Where my soul finds rest
Take me to the cross of Jesus
Be my hope, my strength, my song
Be my hope, my strength, my song
On my own is a dark and lonely road
I need Your light to break through the night
I turn my eyes to see You Lord
You’re my help and hope secure
My fear is gone
When I’m weak, You are strong
And I stand in awe of who You are
You’re my hope
You’re my strength
You’re my song
It Is Well
Words & Music: Public Domain | Arrangement: Carissa Vann & Hank Hamberg | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars, Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
When peace like a river attendeth my way
When sorrows like sea billows roll
Whatever my lot You have taught me to say
It is well, it is well, with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well, it is well, with my soul
My sin, oh, the bliss of this glorious thought
My sin, not in part but the whole
Is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord, O my soul
And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight
The clouds be rolled back as a scroll
The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend
Even so, it is well with my soul
Let Me See
Words & Music: Carissa Vann (ASCAP) | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann | Piano: Carissa Vann | Cello: Aimee Norris Acoustic Guitar, Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
When faith is weak and sorrow deep
Give me a song that I can sing
When peace is lost and hope feels gone
Remove the sand I’m standing on
Take the veil from my eyes
Let me see the sacrifice
Of three nails and a wounded side
Of love that rose to give me life
When life is scattered on the floor
Remind me there’s an open door
When peace is lost and hope feels gone
The solid rock I will stand on
Be still my soul, for you are free
Be still my soul, find rest in Thee
Changing Still
Words & Music: Carissa Vann (ASCAP) | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann | Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars, Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
In the struggle I’m prone to doubt
My hope is fading
Why has my praise run out
Jesus take my hand and lead me on
Wandering heart, look to the Lord
And don’t loose faith now
Lord You saved me at my worst
But I’m forgetful You loved me first
So what’s to think you won’t save me now
Wandering heart, look to the Lord
And don’t loose faith now
He bore my sin and carried my shame
He won my peace at Calvary
And I am justified by His blood
I am saved by the life of Jesus Christ
I am changed
Changing still
I am changed
Changing still
I’ve tasted and I’ve seen how good you are
So wandering heart, look to the Lord
And don’t loose faith now
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
I am changed
Be Thou My vision
Words & Music: Public Domain | Arrangement: Carissa Vann & The Newfoundlands (Becky & Phil Waggoner) | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann, Becky, & Phil Waggoner | Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars: Phil Waggoner Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
Be Thou my vision O Lord of my heart
Nought be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best thought, by day or by night
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light
Be Thou my wisdom and Thou my true word
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord
Thou my great Father and I Thy true son
Thou in me dwelling and I with Thee one
Riches I heed not, nor man's empty praise
Thou mine inheritance now and always
Thou and Thou only first in my heart
High King of heaven, my treasure Thou art
High King of heaven my victory won
May I reach heaven's joys, O bright heaven's Sun
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall
Still be my vision, O Ruler of all
Make It Right
Words & Music: Carissa Vann (ASCAP) | Lead & Backing Vocals: Carissa Vann | Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars, Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
For all the tired and all the worn
For all who fear and all who mourn
And to the hopeless when strength is gone
And to the peace-less without a song
There is a love
That’s yours and mine
So amazing, so divine
This love
That’s yours and mine
Takes the broken
And makes it right
He’ll make it right
All through the changing and through the doubt
And in the waiting when faith runs out
Though you feel like no one is there
Oh He did not forget You
By His love that cannot cease
It is our joy and perfect peace
We are forgiven
By His love that cannot cease
It is our joy and perfect peace
We are free
By His love that cannot cease
It is our joy and perfect peace
We are saved
How great thou art
Words & Music: Public Domain | Arrangement: Carissa Vann & Hank Hamberg | Lead Vocals: Carissa Vann | Backing Vocals: Wesley Nilsen | Piano: Carissa Vann | Acoustic & Electric Guitars, Bass: Hank Hamberg | Drums: Tyson Sheth
O Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed
And when I think of God, His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in
That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow with humble adoration
And there proclaim, "My God, how great You are!”
