Jesus Alone
Jesus Alone Chord Chart (pdf) Jesus Alone Chord Chart (Word doc) This song was written as I thought about Jesus’ death and resurrection and His claims that if you had seen Him you had seen the Father.

When we let go of everything we hold onto, that we think makes us who we are, then we will find ourselves in the arms of Jesus… Continue reading Calling – live version
