Artist Statement

We are called to put on the Identity of Christ, but all too often we come to worship carrying our baggage of sin and hurt, which obscures and covers that identity. As we enter into worship our focus is taken off us and directed back toward God, drawing us to a sacred space of confession and repentance where our hearts are prepared, so that we can then worship in spirit and truth.

Lyrics

Peace, by The Robbie Seay Band

calmer than the sky
far away so blue
land of living God
grant your peace on earth
we can feel you move
and cannot stay the same
the winds are blowing strong
God of heaven come

breathe peace
breathe your peace on us
so we might breathe you deep
breathe peace
breathe your peace on us

land of the living God
if we are in the way
move us to the side
God forgive our wrongs
rest your hands on us
all the world is yours
let us not forget
it was you who bore the cross
God of comfort breathe

breathe peace
breathe your peace on us
so we might breathe you deep
breathe peace
breathe your peace on us
