Who You Are 03:33
WHO YOU ARE V1: You are mighty, You are holy Yet in Your compassion You remember me When you whisper demons tremble When You speak, the mountains fall into the sea CHORUS: I love Who You are I praise Who You are I trust Who You are Jesus, I love Who You are V2: You are sovereign, You are awesome But You promise not to break a tender reed You are just, You are jealous Yet You stoop to satisfy my smallest need BRIDGE: You use the weak things of this world to shame the strong You choose the foolish things of this world to shame the wise No flesh shall glory in Your presence (x 4) God © 2010 Lighthouse Audio Ray Salisbury, Nelson, New Zealand

Gravity 03:27
GRAVITY Like a needle finding North... Like a moon orbiting the Earth... Like an insect near a light, I can’t fight I feel the pull of your gravity I find my soul’s security I finally rest in your arms of love Like a missile finds a target Like metal finds a magnet Like water finds the lowest part, You have my heart I feel the pull of your gravity I find my soul’s security I lose myself in the purity … of love Blinded by the brilliance of your glory Deafened by the thunder of your voice Weakened by the power of your presence Swallowed up in wonder and in joy © Lighthouse Audio | February 2020 & January 2021 | Ray Salisbury, Nelson, New Zealand

FOREVER I BELONG You are the source from where goodness flows from You are my future where I will go to You are my music; You are my song Forever I belong... to You You are my breath; You are my breeze You are the ground beneath my feet You are the Spirit who makes me stronger Forever I belong... to You You are my Father; Your love surrounds You are so faithful; Your word resounds Through all my failures and all I do Forever I belong... to You Ray Salisbury, Nelson, NZ | April 2020

Psalm 139 02:51
PSALM 139 REFRAIN: Oh God, You search me Oh God, You know me V1: You know the motives of my heart You know my thoughts from a distance You know what I’ll say from the very first sentence You loved me into existence... V2: You know me inside and out You knew me from my conception You know each bone that is inside my body You deserve my adoration... V3: Where can I flee from Your presence? Where can I go from Your Spirit? If I reach the horizon, it won’t be surprising You’d find me there in a minute... ©1993 & 2021 Ray Salisbury | 5 June 2021 Lighthouse Audio, Nelson, NZ

Take My Heart Verse 1: Take my heart, Make it Yours I forsake all other lovers I held dear Take my life, Make it shine Let it radiate Your glory everywhere Let it shine... Chorus: I will sing of the goodness of our God I will share of the freedom I have found I will bring a song of gratitude As my heart delights itself in You Verse 2: Take my mind, Make it still I leave behind the pleasures I pursued Take my voice, Make it sing As an offering that’s pleasing to You I will sing...
