Heart of the Heavens - CD Lyrics
THE HEART OF THE HEAVENS - MP3 Clip
Lonely desert below; Barren soil ‘neath the sky
Only death in the wind, every echo is dry
Hills and valleys on fire, mere memories of life
Parched and thirsty by day, no relief in the night
Hungers cry in the heart
Groanings reach up touching heaven
Buried hopes start to tremble
and breathe again
Deep longings are heard
All waiting will cease
For the heart of the heavens is love
The sky smiles on the earth
Releases living rains
Great clouds of mercy empty
One gives, one gains
And both are satisfied
The desert and the sky
For the heart of the heavens is love
Such tears of grace pour
Streams swell into a river
Wonder of divine reflection
The needy and the Giver
And both are satisfied
The desert and the sky
For the heart of the heavens is love

IN THE HOLLOW OF YOUR HAND - MP3 Clip
In the hollow of Your hand
The universe is turning
In the hollow of Your hand
The worlds find rest
In the hollow of Your hand
The heav’nly lights are burning
In the hollow of Your hand
In the sunshine of Your smile
The days unfold like flowers
In the sunshine of Your smile
The spirit soars
In the sunshine of Your smile
Awash in mercy showers
In the sunshine of Your smile
Mighty, mighty Lord
All who hear and know You
Are carried on the current of Your love
into eternity
In the harbour of Your heart
The King of Love befriending
In the harbour of Your heart
All storms shall cease
In the harbour of Your heart
Secure for time unending
In the harbour of Your heart
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
OPEN UP THE HEAVENS
Open up the heavens and come down, Lord
Open up the heavens and come down
We long for Your kingdom and Your glory
Open up the heavens and come down
Ride in on the praises of Your people
Ride in as we worship You, our King
Ride in on the praises of Your people
You alone are worshipped here
Open wide the gates here and come in, Lord
Open wide the gates here and come in
The powers of darkness cannot stand against You
Open wide the gates here and come in
Our hearts are open, Fill us, Lord (x 4)

GLORY DAY
Oh, let this be a glory day
Hallelujah day
Let this be Emmanuel day
God Forever with us (x 2)
Reveal Your glory, Lord, Perfect One
Only Son of God our God
Reveal Your glory, Lord, overwhelm
Calling us to be Your glory
At last with unveiled faces
We will stand before Your throne
Visit us today with a glimpse of Heaven (x 2)

I LOVE TO SING YOUR PRAISES
I love to sing Your praises
Of mercy beyond measure
Ever to receive me
It flows again
I love to sing Your praises
Of grace full and free
Covering my shame
It pours again
I love to sing Your praises
Of hope my song
Rising up within me
To rise again

TREASURE CHILD - MP3 Clip
Once I held you, treasure child
One so small, a need so great
In my heart I hold you still
A prayer for you, my treasure child
May the Father bless your chapter
in the story of life
And may hist’ry hold your dreams
safe and sure
Let the dross drift off
and the gold shine through
The future be bright for you
Oh, treasure child
I’m much the richer for you
Hear life singing, treasure child
Dance away, the world awaits
In my heart I’ll follow you
And pray for you, my treasure child
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
PUT YOUR HAND IN MINE
Put your hand in Mine
Leave your boat behind you
Step out on the water with Me
Surely I am with you always, to the end
Walk upon the water with Me
Leave the safe for the unknown
Release the old for the untried
Lay down the skill, receive the gift
Abandon the trench for the open field
Walk away from the wasteland
t’ward the garden
Give up the dead for the living
Exchange the gray for the colour-full
Silence the single note
for the symphony of heaven
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
HOLY AFFECTION
Holy affection, healing embrace
Reveal Your mighty arm to save
Release Your love to lift us from a living grave (X 2)
Your coming means life
Your touch is deliverance from doubt and shame
And as You draw near the light of heaven dawns
And with overwhelming thankfulness
We bless Your lovely Name
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
TOWARD THE OVERFLOWING - MP3 Clip
Multiply our prayers toward the overflowing (x 2)
Jesus, give us eyes us to see
Add vision to our faith
Cause our hearts to beat with Yours
That we join in the prayers You pray
We would join You in prayer
Toward the overflowing
To see answers drawing closer with each prayer
Darkness being swallowed up in light
To feel life and power flooding our dry bones
Burdens lifting off of shoulders weary from the fight
To know wholeness for our bodies and our minds
Healing on its way from distant shores
To hear clattering of chains falling away
Dancing feet of those
who’ve never danced in You before
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
I WILL SING /
OPEN WIDE YOUR HEART
I will sing of Your goodness
Of grace that knows no bounds
You do right all day long
And I will sing
I will sing of Your kindness
Of mercy without end
You are love all day long
And I will sing
Open wide your heart
Your hands
Your eyes
That the Father
Who does all things well
May meet you
May fill you
May bless you
Sheila Davidson (c) 2008
