Song : Still Standing (Lakewood : Free To Worship)

I have always loved STILL STANDING, even when Israel Houghton did it in the Alive in South Africa album. It was brilliant!

The song is an upbeat song and its another great song written by Cindy Cruse Ratcliff and Israel Houghton!! Woo Hoo … loved it! I like what they did this time in Free To Worship’s recording.

The song was slightly slower (or felt slower) and they threw in a medley to a Hymn!! Yes .. trust Lakewood to do great things like that in familiar songs.

Still Standing is the second song in the CD, and the medley only jumped into a two liner from a Hymn. It proclaims

On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand

Yups … we stand on Christ our Rock, and when we are Standing with Jesus .. nothing .. and nothing can shake us!! I love the truth that is always potrayed in the songs that Israel writes. So if you’ve not done this song yet …. listen to it in the video below and go teach it in your church this week!! WOO HOO!!! I’m STILL STANDING! !

Lyrics STILL STANDING
Chords - here

Verse1
You gave me courage to believe
That all Your goodness I would see
And if it had not been for You standing on my side
Where would I be

Chorus
If not for your goodness
If not for your grace
I don’t know where I would be today
If not for your kindness
I never could say I’m still standing
If not for your mercy
If not for your Love
I most likely would have given up
If not for your favour
I never could say I’m still standing
But by the grace of God

Verse2
To You I lift my offering
And set my heart on higher things
For if it had not been for You Standing on my side
Where would I be?

Bridge
I’m still standing
I’m still standing
I’m still standing
But by the grace of God
(Repeat)

Hymn
On Christ the solid rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand

I absolutely love the way Lakewood re-did/remixed At The Cross. At the Cross & Mighty To Save are two powerful songs released from Hillsong’s Mighty To Save album.

But Lakewood redid the song so much better (from my perspective that is). Hills did it in a rather reflective way, the song At the Cross started slow and was slowly built up.

In Lakewood however, At The Cross was a medley from It Is Well With My Soul and it was in an upbeat tone and it really brings up the worship really really well! Loved it! And I simply love the medleys that Lakewood does in all of their albums. So it was a happy surprise when they medley At The Cross to Might To Save …. loved it!!!

The thrust and themes of the two songs are well represented too!! Its an amazing jump from one song to the other cos the Original Key for At The Cross is “E” and Mighty To Save is “A”.
Watch the video and listen to how they medley the jump from song to the other. Another point to take note is that Lakewood did not do Verse3 (which i personally feel its Darlene’s personal verse).

Lyrics AT THE CROSS
Chords - here

Verse 1
Oh Lord You’ve searched me,
You know my way;
Even when I fail You,
I know You love me.
Your holy presence
Surrounding me
In every season,
I know You love me;
I know You love me.

Chorus
At the cross I bow my knee,
Where Your blood was shed for me,
There’s no greater love than this.
You have overcome the grave,
Your glory fills the highest place,
What can separate me now?

Verse 2
You go before me,
You shield my way,
Your hand upholds me;
I know You love me.

Verse3
And when the earth fades,
Falls from my eyes,
And You stand before me,
I know You love me;
I know You love me.

Bridge:
You tore the veil, You made a way
When You said that it is done.

Lyrics Mighty To Save
Chords - here

VERSE 1
Everyone needs compassion
Love that’s never failing
Let mercy fall on me
Everyone needs forgiveness
The kindness of a Saviour
The hope of nations

CHORUS
Saviour
He can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever
Author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave

VERSE 2
So take me as You find me
All my fears and failures
Fill my life again
I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in
Now I surrender

BRIDGE
Shine Your light and let the whole world see
We’re singing
For the glory of the risen King

I’ve been listening to Free To Worship for the last 10 days in my car!! Its absolutely brilliant, i wish i have more time to comment on the worship blog, cos i’ve got so many things to say on the songs and the arrangements and the medleys that Lakewood church did!! So so so so good!!

Wanna draw your attention to their theme song .. Free To Worship written by Israel Houghton & Da’Dra Greathouse (u can see her sing the song in the video below); its a great worship song, which talks about our freedom to express our love and worship unto God, that there should not be anything that will hold us back or put fear in our hearts when approaching our Almighty God!

Song : Free To Worship
Lyrics below
Chords : Still looking

Verse1
Once far away
Now, I’m here to stay
Close to your heart
When I made mistakes
I thought You’d turn away
But, now I know
You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased

Chorus
Now I’m Free
To worship You, Lord
With all of my soul
And everything within me
I’m free to worship You, here
Casting out fear
Your love draws me near
to worship You

Draw me close, Draw me close

Verse2
Once I believed
(that) I could never be
Close to Your heart
Now, I know the truth
I belong to You
Yes, I know
You have redeemed me by grace
The distance has been erased

Bridge
Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close
Jesus, I will not fear
I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close

Chorus (Ending)
Now I’m free to lift up my hands
I know who I am
I know I am free to worship
I will not fear, I will not fear
Draw me close, Draw me close

Love this new song from Lakewood Church. I believe its Cindy Ratcliff leading it, and it sounds like an Israel Houghton type of a song. And when you listen to it .. its directly ministers to your heart!!!

I think Everywhere I Go will be a hit just like Friend of God, You Are Good … and the likes.

I don’t think this song is out on any CD yet, but its sung in Lakewood Worship Services. Watch the video below and be blest by the SONG!!

Watch the video below and sing & worship along!!
