Nichole Nordeman songs on other albums
I have included lyrics from the City on a Hill - Sing Alleluia
album where she sings lead vocals on two tracks, the two songs she
performed for Heaven & Earth : A Worship Tapestry, and her
contribution to the Girls of Grace CD. I do not believe
she actually wrote any of the songs, except possibly "Shine Your Light".
*You Are Holy*
Written by: Christine Byrd and Steve Hindalong
performed by Nichole Nordeman (with Fernando Ortega)
from "City on a Hill : Sing Alleluia" 2002
Praise Father God, giver of life
Power and might, goodness and light
Ruler of all
Praise to the Son, the living Christ
Body and blood, mercy and love
Sweet sacrifice
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
Praise Holy Ghost, voice in the dark
Healer and friend, fire and wind
Lord of our hearts
Praise Father God, Praise to the Son
Praise Holy Ghost,
Praise Father, Son And Holy Ghost
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
You are holy, holy
(Fernando Ortega sings "Be Thou My Vision" at the end of the track)
*Shine Your Light*
performed by Nichole Nordeman and FFH
from "City on a Hill : Sing Alleluia" 2002
Tell me why,
Why you got your secret locked inside?
Why you trying to keep it for your own
If he asks for bread
Tell me why, why you giving him a stone
You know,
The reason for the hope
That runs your soul
The reason that your sleeping peacefully
Wasn't meant to be undisclosed
Oh, don't you know
When you live in a city on a hill
You've got to shine your light
When you live in a city on a hill
You've got to shine your light
Go and tell
Go and bring them water from a different well
Running with your candle into the blackest night
To be salt and light
To the wide wide world
Cause when you live in a city on a hill
You've got to shine your light
When you live in a city on a hill
You've got to shine your light
Your heart is filled with wonder
Your cup is running over still
When you live
In a city on a hill
Shine your light...
*Heaven & Earth*
from Heaven & Earth : A Worship Tapestry

Performed by Nichole Nordeman
You are the One
Rulers of heaven and earth
Given a name
High above all other names
And all things made
Were made by You
And I am so amazed
I belong to You
How can One, One so holy
Be prepared to live inside
Of a heart like mine
I'll never know why
But as I, as I go deeper
I know I can be certain
That love is a gift
Wrapped up in the mystery of You
You came down
Lived as the least of all men
You suffered and died
Bearing unbearable shame
Now here in the shadow of Your cross
You wash me clean
Of all I'm guilty of
How can On, One so holy
Be prepared to live inside
Of a heart like mine
I'll never know why
But should I
Leave You out day by day
Lord, remind me
That love is a gift
Wrapped up in the mystery of You
*In Your Love*
from Heaven & Earth : A Worship Tapestry
by John Hartley, Margaret Becker and Staci Frenes - © 1999
Performed by Nichole Nordeman
I am humbled in Your presence
More desperate than before
I've brushed against Your mercy
Yet still I'm wanting more
I have felt the hand of comfort
In the softness of Your touch I wait
I am holding on to promises
I am counting on the truth
And on these knees of faltering
I'm calling out to You
In Your love I find my resting place
In Your love
I find my shelter
When I lay down
All that I've been holding to
The beauty I've found in You
Is sweeter than all I've known
In Your love
I surrender all my failings
Please break these chains of doubt
I bring these simple offerings
Of what I can't work out
When You let these healing waters
Anoint my troubled soul
I wait
*You Are my All in All*
by Dennis Jernigan
Performed by Nichole Nordeman
from the album "Girls of Grace" Word Records 2002
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord, to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising up again I bless Your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down You pick me up
When I am dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
You are my strength when I am weak
You are the treasure that I seek
You are my all in all
Seeking You as a precious jewel
Lord, to give up I'd be a fool
You are my all in all
Taking my sin, my cross, my shame
Rising up again I bless Your name
You are my all in all
When I fall down You pick me up
When I get dry You fill my cup
You are my all in all
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
Jesus, Lamb of God
Worthy is Your name
