Mary Parker The first song of yours that I heard thanks to our youngest who’d discovered you on YouTube, so thankful for the ministry and the talents that you’ve been given! Favorite track: The Eternal Son.

Yaaqova Wow, this album brings me so much joy and hope...R&R have done an amazing work here! "The Eternal Son" is so perfect and jazzy and the message of praise for our Savior is just on point. "Home" is another favorite, it just transports me to a heavenly place in my heart when I listen and I long to be there! "High Priest" YES, I can't say enough to describe the importance of viewing Messiah in this way. Thank ya'll for this Spirit-filled album :) Glory to God! Favorite track: The Eternal Son.

Wait For You 03:57
How long now, until You come Until we see You, as the Eternal Son Just like the evening for the morning sun We wait for You There will be a day when we are one Together in a city made of pure gold And we will be forever in Your love I just want to be with You my God I just want to be with You forever In the glory and the beauty of Your love I know God, You will surely come You have promised, and You’re the faithful one So hear the Spirit and the bride say “come” We wait for You Then when You come, The Bridegroom and bride will be one There’ll be no need for the sun ‘Cause You will be the light Then when we meet There’ll be the greatest of feasts Your face I will finally see As You wipe the tears from my eyes
2.
We are citizens of a heavenly home This life that we now live, is no longer our own ‘Cause we’re living for the King of Glory Our lives laid down will tell His story He is the image of the invisible God He made all things on Earth and Heaven above The firstborn over all creation The ruler over all the nations In Him all the fullness of God was pleased to dwell Through Him, He will reconcile all things to Himself And He’ll never change From age to age He stays the same Eternal, surpassing His love’s everlasting He’ll never change From age to age He stays the same He’s steadfast, unchanging His love’s never ending
3.
How lovely is Your dwelling place My soul is crying out to be with You Oh for one more glimpse, to see Your face I was made to be with You One day with You Is better than anything I could ever do My soul thirsts for You, and You alone Lord, nothing in this world could satisfy ‘Til I stand in awe, before Your throne And see that fire burning in Your eyes One day with You Is better than anything I could ever do Now that You’ve brought me Into Your family I can finally call You my Father God There’s nothing better There’s no greater treasure Than just to be with You my Father God
4.
Before the earth was made You were living And over every heart You’ve been singing Your very word spoke life into being You even give the breath we are breathing And now, we sing our songs back to You Oh Lord, we gladly lay down our lives at Your feet We take the breath You gave And we give it back in praise You are exalted to the highest place You have the name above all other names Stepping down into a world You made The uncreated God in a human frame Creator dwelling with creation You made Yourself of no reputation And You made Yourself nothing for us And You gave up Your life for the least of men You entered the gates of death But rose with the keys in Your hands There is no one like You, There is none besides You
5.
Who was in the beginning before time began? Who holds all of creation in the palm of His hand? My Father, He is the one who sustains all things He is the source, the Creator of everything Who’s thoughts toward me outnumber the sand? Who has given Him wisdom? Who has made Him understand? He sees all things, He knows all things He sees all things, He knows all things Who is like our God in all of the earth? Who is like our God in all of the earth? He is holy, He is holy He is worthy, He is worthy Fill me with the knowledge of You God (Let me behold more of You God) Open my heart to Your truth God (I have to have more of You God) You are holy, You are holy You are worthy, You are worthy
6.
What love is this! Fighting for my heart when I lose my grip Rescuing my life from a sinking ship You deliver me ‘Cause I was dead in my sin Struggling ‘til You came and You brought me in Giving me a new chance to begin, and live again I love, I love, I love ‘Cause You first loved me, ‘cause You first loved me I sing, I sing, I sing, ‘Cause You sing over me, ‘cause You sing over me You are my strength Faithful from the start and You have no end A perfect Father and a perfect friend You will always be ‘Cause You have hold of my life From the moment I am born ‘til the day I die Nothing else could truly satisfy me like You Lord A love so strong, I can hardly understand it A grace so deep, I can hardly comprehend it Now I am held by a love that carries me Now I am held by a love that carries me What can I give to You Lord? I pour out all my love What can I bring to You but my life laid down for You?

High Priest 05:29
Oh the humility of a King inside a manger Our shepherd and our saviour on the cross You gave Your life for me Now, how can I repay You? All the riches I could gain are not enough You are the Prince of Peace You’re our great high priest You have made a way for me You have set me free You got thirsty, You got tired You were tempted, You were tried And You can fully sympathise Cause You know just what it’s like to live this life Fully God and fully man, who can fully comprehend the mystery? You are the Prince of Peace You’re our great high priest You have made a way for me You have set me free I’ve found freedom in You Jesus There is nothing in between us You turn mourning into dancing And sorrow into joy, oh Lord
8.
Home 04:24
I will wait for You, I will wait for You Knowing that You will draw near to me I was made for You, I was made for You I was made to be in Your presence Here, oh Lord, I have made a place For You to fill, so come and have Your way You’re the one I want, You’re the one I want You’re the one my heart cries out for This is not my home, This is not my home This is only temporary But You oh Lord, will never fade away I’ll be home when I see Your face Now I’ve found my place in Your house
9.
Waking up to the sunrise To the golden light and blue skies I’m in awe of creation Of Your glory and salvation All around, it is true, creation’s crying out to You With songs of joy and hymns of praise To the one who made all things So I turn away now from all worthless things I will lift up (lift up) my eyes (my eyes) And I choose to look on the beautiful king I will lift up (lift up) my eyes (my eyes) When I’m lost in the darkness When I feel so weak and helpless You’re my rock, You’re my fortress You’re the peace when I feel restless When my enemies surround You’re my firm and solid ground In the flood, or on the sea Like an ark You carry me Oh, With storms all around My feet upon the solid ground I will not be shaken cause I know that You, You are, You are All that I needed And You, You are, You are All that I wanted And You, You are, You are The only one that satisfies me That satisfies me I will lift up my eyes
10.
This life is just a fleeting shadow I realise that life is found in You alone Until my heart has found its home With all the saints before Your throne I’ll live my life for You alone ‘Cause You call me Your own You shine brighter than the brightest sun Your light endures when all is said and done You’re the lion, You’re the lamb The first and last, The Great I Am The Son of God, the Son of Man With wounds in Your hands Forever, oh Lord, You will be the Eternal Son
11.
You’ve numbered every hair on my head And You know my every thought And You know my every thought My name is on the palm of Your hand And Your hands they hold the stars And Your hands they hold the stars Though You’re infinite in wisdom Powerful and mighty Still You call me Your friend Though You’re seated in the heavens King over creation Still you call me Your friend I have cried out and You have heard me You know my name, You know my name I was lost and Then You came and found me You know my name, You know my name Your perfect love is better than life And Your mercy never ends And Your mercy never ends Like a Father You have opened Your arms And You’ve called me back again And You’ve called me back again You see me You hear me You know me God (And Your thoughts cannot be numbered)
12.
Pierced for my transgressions Wounded for my sins This man of sorrows came to take my place King over creation Slain for my salvation Unspeakable love, abounding grace Now I am coming to this holy place I am drawing near to seek Your face Jesus, Your blood has made my hands clean So I will not hide my face from You You have won the victory You have paid the cost While I was still in sin You died for me Carrying my sorrows Lifting off my shame Bearing all my sin to set me free I will ascend the hill of the Lord ‘Cause You have rescued me
