Fruit of the Spirit album

Love is patient and love is kind, 

but in my heart the things I find
Don’t seem to look an awful lot like love
And love don’t keep a list of wrongs, 

but I have one that’s ten miles long
And it just seems to get longer every day

But I know when I give my heart to Jesus, everything will change

Cos there’s no greater love 

than what He did for me
Giving up His life upon the cross 

to set our hatred free
Now you and I are filled 

with power from above
To show the world the beauty 

and the wonder of our Saviour’s love

Every day I try and try, 

most days I just scrape on by
I wonder if I’ll ever get this right
But love is such a high ideal, 

it’s more than what I think and feel
And even if I try with all my might

It’s only when I give my everything to Jesus, that He starts shining through

Chorus

Even if I gave the world away, 

I wouldn’t have a single word to say
If I didn’t have love, if I didn’t have love
​

Can I really find joy in this world of sorrow?
Can I really find something 

to get me out of bed tomorrow?
Or is God just a killjoy, 

driving us into the ground?
Should I give Him a moment? 

Should I even hang around?

Don’t you know I’m so desperate 

for anything to satisfy
Don’t you know I’m so hungry, 

and I can’t even tell you why
How I long to be happy, 

how I long to find joy in this life!
What on earth is gonna help me, 

in the midst of my chaos and strife?

There is only One, there is just one choice
To set my soul on fire, to make my heart rejoice

I find joy in Jesus, the fount of living water
I find joy in Jesus, the lover my soul
In the sweetness of His presence, 

He satisfies each longing
Yes it’s only in Jesus 

that my joy is made complete

So if you haven’t found the answer 

in all the things that you have tried
If you’re looking for someone, 

to give you joy deep down inside
If you’re searching for contentment, 

and you just can’t get it right
Let me guide to the answer, 

let me point you to the Light

There is only One, there is just one choice
To set your soul on fire, to make your heart rejoice

Come find joy in Jesus, the fount of living water
Come find joy in Jesus, the lover of your soul
In the sweetness on His presence, 

He satisfies each longing
Yes it’s only in Jesus 

that your joy is made complete

Life seems to move far too quickly these days
As we hustle and hurry about
We're all just attempting to get through the day
In one piece, of this I've no doubt

So if you feel overwhelmed, overworked, overdone
As I'm sure that you most likely do
Then pause for a moment, hear the words of my song
Cos I'm singing this prayer over you

May the peace of the Father, Creator of all
Fill your life and your soul every day
May the peace of the Saviour take over your heart
And reflect in each word that you say
May the peace of the Spirit descend on you now
As you yield to His firm loving hand
May our glorious God, Father Jesus and Spirit
Give you peace that you don't understand

So many people with worry and fear
Dominating each step that they take
Deep into the night they just toss and they turn
Anxiety keeps them awake

So if you feel like the world's weighing down on your shoulders
And there's not a thing you can do
Just pause for a moment, hear me singing my song
May these words be a blessing to You

Chorus x2

I don’t have time to do things slowly
I don’t have time to mess around
But You have time for me whenever I mess up
Oh how your patient love abounds

I get frustrated at the smallest things
I get upset and make a fuss
But You wait patiently and always keep Your cool
Oh Lord how good you are to us!

You are oh so patient, you are oh so kind
You are slow to anger now
I wanna know your secret, so I can show the world 
That you make all things come together in your time

In this world of instant gratification
We want it all and we want it now
But in Your patience you are never discontent
Lord fill us up and show us how!

So when we start to get frustrated
And when we get stopped or slowed down
Oh Holy Spirit, come and make us more like You
Lord give us faith to stick around

All throughout the years 

the church’s claim to fame
Has often come from cruelty in Jesus’ name
I just don’t understand, 

why can’t we get it right?
How can we live in darkness, 

when in Him we’ve seen the light? 

Yes Jesus could be hard, 

and Jesus could be tough
But Jesus always reached out 

to the ones who’d had it rough
He always gave such love, 

to friends and enemies 
And in His kindness reached out 

to the least of these

What a change we could see, 

if everyone could finally
Leave all their hate and cruelty behind
What a world this could be, 

if you and I could only see
The best in one another and be kind

Show kindness to yourself, 

oh precious child of God
Please don’t be cruel – 

you know this life is already so hard
Be kind to those you love, 

yes each and every one
Don’t leave kind words unspoken, 

don’t leave kind deeds undone

Be generous and kind, 

to those who are in need
Don’t let yourself get all caught up 

in selfishness and greed
And don’t forget your enemies, 

the ones who hate you so
Be kind and loving to them, and let them go

​Chorus x2

Looking deep into my heart, 

I can say with perfect honesty
I don’t always like what I see
Cos in amongst the love and peace 

there are things that don’t belong in me
The fruit of a poisonous tree

Is there any hope at all for someone like me?
Is there anyone to finally set me free?

God is good! Truly good! 
There is no one who compares 

to perfect love and majesty
Yes God is good! Truly good! 
And it’s only by His grace 

that any change can come in me
This heart of mine can only shine 
a reflection of the goodness He revealed to me
Lord if you would, please take my heart 

and make it good

He can make me whole again, 

He can take my life and let it be
Pure and holy
He can cancel out the bad, 

He can throw my sins into the sea 
And forgive me eternally

There is hope for every sinner 

thanks to Jesus
Who took our curse and punishment 

upon the tree
So we’ll give our lives 

to be like Him in all ways
And share the good good news 

with all we see

​Chorus

Where are all the loyal ones 

in the human race?
Where are all the faithful ones, 

have they vanished without a trace?
There is One, strong and true 

whose faithfulness reaches the skies
Oh Lord, what am I to do 

with my treason and my lies?

All I want when I meet Him on that day 
Are those words that only He can say     

Well done, good and faithful servant    
Well done, my child
Well done, for fighting the good fight
Your race is run… my child, well done

I’ll commit to God alone 

and I’ll love Him with all of my heart
I’ll commit to showing up 

and always playing my part
I’ll use the gift that He’s given me, 

I won’t bury it in the ground
I’ve made excuses up til now 

I’m done foolin’ around

All I want when I meet Him on that day 
Are those words that only He can say

 Jesus walked the earth, 

and showed the world how to be strong
But on the other hand 

He was so gentle all along
He was….

Meek but never weak, 

strong but always good and kind
Tough but never rough, 

with love and mercy unconfined
Tender and humble, 

kind to all in need of grace
Gentle and lowly at heart

Day by day I try, 

but hurtful words come flying out
Help me be like You, 

help me whisper more and never shout
Make me…

Chorus 

So much noise inside my head, 

Lord the world is shouting oh so loud
Won’t you still my beating heart, 

let me hear you speak above the crowd
With a still small voice 

so gentle I can hardly hear
There’s only one thing to do, 

I’ll close my eyes and I’ll draw near
Make me...

I don’t wanna be one of those Christians
Who claims to know Jesus, 

but lives like the world
I don’t wanna be stuck in the middle
Lifting hands up in worship, 

but cursing you on the street

Lord when temptation comes, 

and takes aim at my soul 
Holy Spirit help me to resist   
And when the walls start to shake 

and I need self-control 
I’ll remember the reason I exist: 

to give you glory in all things

For so long I’ve tried 

to fight sin in my own strength
Falling and tumbling each step of the way
How I long to be holy 

and look a lot more like Jesus
But it’s only through the Spirit 

that I’ll ever get close

Chorus

I know my sanctification 

aint gonna come overnight 
But when I yield to Your power, 

I get new strength for the fight

Holy Spirit come, and work inside my heart
Cultivate your fruit to grow in me
Fill me up, fill me now, 

Lord come and show me how
Let me shine your light 

for all the world to see

But there is one more thing 

I cannot seem to shake
One more fruit I just cannot forget
Though it’s not on the list, 

my heart cannot resist
When I see the way 

my needs have all been met

I could never express just how grateful I am
For each breath that I take every day
Every blessing I have comes from You Lord God,
So I lift up my voice and I say
I’m thankful, I’m thankful

You have given me such goodness and mercy
You’ve surrounded me with people that I love
And on the cross you took my place, 

to buy me free grace
This is a gift that I am so unworthy of…

Oh forgive me Lord when I start to complain
When I moan and get upset at silly things
Let me see through the haze 

and find the many many ways
That I’ve been loved 

by the wondrous King of kings!
