An Old New Song and a Brand New Song

I haven't posted any songs for a while, partly because I haven't written many lately. But one of my favorite 'newer' songs I've never posted, and I just 'finished' another, so I thought I'd throw them up to see what kind of response (if any) I get to them. I'm always interested to see if any red flags go up for anyone as they read the lyrics. I'm pretty committed to not writing heretical songs...so as always, all input would be very welcome!

I LOVE YOUR GRACE

VERSE:

WHEN I'M WEAK YOU ARE STRONG IN MY WEAKNESS
WHEN I'M POOR THEN YOU LAVISH YOUR RICHES
WHEN I'M BROKENHEARTED YOU WRAP YOUR ARMS AROUND ME
AND POUR OUT HEALING KINDNESS ON ME

CHORUS:

I LOVE YOUR GRACE, I LOVE YOUR GRACE
ALL THAT I HAVE, ALL THAT I AM
IS BECAUSE OF YOU LOVING ME
I LOVE YOUR GRACE

VERSE:

WHEN I'M LOST LIKE A SHEPHERD YOU FIND ME
WHEN I'M BLIND THEN YOU MAKE MY EYES SEE
AND WHEN TEMPTATION COMES YOU'RE STANDING RIGHT BESIDE ME
GIVING ME THE POWER TO OVERCOME

REPEAT CHORUS



The second song is:



JESUS YOU CAME TO SET US FREE

VERSE:

YOU CAME TO DO THE FATHER'S WILL
PERFECTLY THE LAW FULFILLED
AND AS YOU BREATHED YOUR FINAL BREATH
YOU CONQUERED SIN, YOU CONQUERED SIN
YOU TRAMPLED EVERY ENEMY
BRINGING DARKNESS TO ITS KNEES
AS LIFE RUSHED INTO YOU AGAIN
YOU CONQUERED DEATH, YOU CONQUERED DEATH

CHORUS:

JESUS YOU CAME TO SET US FREE
YOU'VE BROKEN EVERY HEAVY YOKE TO BRING US PEACE
JESUS NOW HEAR YOUR PEOPLE SING JOYFULLY
IF THE SON HAS SET US FREE, THEN WE ARE FREE INDEED

VERSE:

IN YOU NOW WE ARE DEAD TO LAW
THE FATHER SEES US WITHOUT FLAW
YOU CHANGED OUR HEART OF STONE TO FLESH
WE'LL CONQUER SIN, WE'LL CONQUER SIN
THROUGH YOUR BODY AND YOUR BLOOD
WE EAT AND DRINK THE LIFE OF GOD
AND RISING UP IN ALL YOUR STRENGTH
WE'LL CONQUER DEATH, WE'LL CONQUER DEATH

REPEAT CHORUS

TAG:

NO MORE ANGER, NO MORE WRATH
NO MORE SICKNESS, NO MORE DEATH
NO MORE ANGER OR FEAR OF WRATH
NO MORE SICKNESS, NO MORE DEATH

REPEAT CHORUS
