What A Place Is This

by the weak & the few

1.
VERSE 1 Dear Christians one and all rejoice With exultation springing And with united heart and voice And holy rapture singing Proclaim the wonders God hath done How His right arm the victory won Right dearly it hath cost Him Right dearly it hath cost Him VERSE 2 My good works could avail me naught For they with sin were stained Free will against God's judgment fought And dead to good remained Grief drove me to despair and I Had nothing left me but to die To hell I fast was sinking To hell I fast was sinking VERSE 3 God saw in His eternal grace My sorrow out of measure He thought upon His tenderness To save was His good pleasure He turned to me a Father’s heart Not-small the cost to heal my smart He gave His dearest Treasure He gave His dearest Treasure VERSE 4 He spoke to His beloved Son 'Tis time to take compassion Then go bright Jewel of My crown And bring to man salvation From sin and sorrow set him free Slay bitter death for him that he May live with Thee forever May live with Thee forever

And We Sing 05:16
VERSE 1 Before the throne of God the angels sing Together with the throng of the redeemed To praise the righteous Holy One For sweet redemption through His Son CHORUS And we sing Worthy is the Lamb Who was slain Slain for sinful man To redeem To redeem VERSE 2 Behold the Lamb who takes away our sin Salvation comes to all who trust in Him Believe the Lord, believe His word His promises you now have heard VERSE 3 Behold the Father’s gift makes all things new His promises are trustworthy and true His work is done, our knees will bend He’s the beginning and the end BRIDGE All power and wealth and wisdom and might All honor and glory and blessing Belong to Christ All power and wealth and wisdom and might All honor and glory and blessing Belong to Christ

VERSE 1 Preserve me O God I take refuge in You Apart from your grace No good works can I do Your saints are the glorious ones The seal of great works You have done CHORUS You have shown me the path of life In Your presence is fullness of joy At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore Pleasures forevermore VERSE 2 Days of sorrow have passed Chasing idols of stone Now Your name on my lips Sweetest taste I have known The cross is the place I adore Where the sinner will find heaven’s door VERSE 3 Lord give me strength And counsel my heart Be always before me And always my rock You called me and made me Your own An heir at the foot of Your throne
4.
VERSE 1 Let us go up to the place Where our burdens tumbled down To recall His mournful face The nails and wounds and thorny crown Where punishment that we deserved Was measured out on One so pure O what a place, is this The beginning of our bliss VERSE 2 O how dark that empty tomb That swallowed death in victory Where sorrow brings eternal rest Where death brings life eternally Where streams of tears and shouts of joy Bring forth an everlasting song O what a place, is this The beginning of our bliss CHORUS Burdens fall down Souls are unbound What a cross, what a tomb, what a Savior Burdens fall down Souls are unbound What a cross, what a tomb, what a Savior VERSE 3 We must look and look again At the wonders of the cross Filthy rags have been removed We are clothed in righteousness And as we stand at journey’s end Heaven’s gates will open wide O what a place, is this The beginning of our bliss

All Of Grace 04:45
VERSE 1 Before the dawn of all mankind He called us each by name And though He knew our helpless state He chose us just the same And wandering to a fiery death He found me just in time I heard the sound of His great love The Savior, gave His life for mine Chorus Grace, all of grace He called us each by name Forever we are changed Grace, amazing grace He gave His life for me I’m His eternally VERSE 2 There's nothing I could ever do To earn a grace so free For all it took was just one sin To damn eternally And that is why the blood of Christ Alone could wash away For sin demands an awful price That only Christ could pay BRIDGE You called my name You bore my shame Forever I am yours You called my name You bore my shame Forever I am changed Forever I am yours
6.
VERSE 1 Jesus, the name above all names Let every rescued soul proclaim On earth below, above the skies Exalt the name of Jesus Christ VERSE 2 The Father’s heart devised a plan His only Son became a man A sinless life a sacrifice A risen Savior reigns on high CHORUS 1 Let every knee come bow before The risen One let us adore And every tongue confess His name That He is Lord let us proclaim VERSE 3 To save His enemies He came To one’s who scorned and mocked His name They bruised, they beat, they spit and cussed They nailed the Savior to a cross VERSE 4 And one day we shall see His face And bask in His amazing grace On thrones above, down streets of gold Forever let His deeds be told CHORUS 2 Then every knee will bow before The Holy One we will adore And every tongue confess His name That He is Lord we will proclaim
