about
Love & Justice is a collection of songs which I’ve written over the course of the past few years while we’ve planted a church, started a family, moved a few times, fixed up old houses, and learned more about God, our city and ourselves than we ever have before. I consider these not only love notes to God straight from my heart but songs designed for participation. May you sing along (or play along) loudly. And my greatest prayer for this album is that God can use it to be a soundtrack for people chasing after Him in their cities all over the world.
Singing songs about justice isn’t enough. This album was designed to help the marginalized in the process. How? A generous portion of the proceeds from the sales of this album and tees available on my website: www.TarynChaseHofert.com will go directly to Justice initiatives @ Watershed. Not just for a limited time: ALWAYS! No matter how long I am selling this album, the profits will be given to Justice @ Watershed. Helping the needy from Charlotte, NC to Malawi Africa: we want to make help bring love to places and people who need it most.

- Track Name: Abandon
- We worship You with abandon/we give You all our attention/hands raise high hearts open wide to You//Whatever it is today/standing in the way/the barriers & barricades break them down//Our pride and preoccupation we lay down for Your elevation/inhibitions, reservations/break them down//chorus//The walls around our hearts/tear them all apart/self-sufficiency, our complacency/break it down//chorus//We worship You with wild abandon nothing else deserves more passion
- Track Name: Rearrange Us
-
Like a raindrop in the ocean/Like one star in a galaxy
So my heart can’t grasp Your greatness or Your depths of love for me//Like a novice to a virtuoso/Like nonsense to poetry/So I cannot scratch the surface of fathoming the Almighty//Attune our hearts to yours, Lord/Align us with Your ways ///chorus When everything around us changes/When underfoot is sinking sand/When questions far outnumber answers/Rearrange us God//Even when the sun is shining help us fix our gaze on You/May the love You lavish on us flow through us in all we do//Awaken us to you, God/Shift our allegiance to You, our King - Track Name: Matchless
- God of glory, King of Kings, Maker of the Earth/nothing uttered from our lips could measure Your worth/And everything we know and call our own pales in comparison, pales in comparison to You//chorus Matchless, You’re unequalled/You’re unrivaled/You are God/Matchless, Pure Perfection/Love and Justice, You are//Lord of all the universe hear this song we sing/Forgive us for our love affair with such lesser things/It all pales in comparison to You (God)
- Track Name: You Are Magnificent
- You’re astounding in all of your splendor/You’re abounding in kindness and generosity /You’re amazing, Lord, You invoke wonder/You’re unchanging my rock of Divine stability/ Oh God, a song’s welling up inside my heart/ Oh God, thank You for everything You are//You are beauty displayed in the detail/You are brilliant, flooding my darkness with Your light/You are faithful never-forsaking/You are mighty my tower of strength and source of life///chorus1 You, You are magnificent Lord/ with all of my heart I adore You and bask in the warmth of Your grace/You are lovely, compassionate Savior/You are mercy, sweet sorrow-taker/You are holy (the whole earth is filled with Your glory)///chorus2 You, You are resplendence defined and here in Your presence I find love that just blows me away//Magnificent King/You’re the song we were born to sing//Your love just blows us away/You are magnificent
- Track Name: The Forgetting Part
- The forgetting part’s the hardest part to get/There is no escaping the tapes inside my head/They say “you’ll never change,you’ll always be the same”/just another day to replay/You can’t see the cloud affixed above my head/I take it everywhere my hovering regret/Oh, for just a day to escape its shadow cast/To reconcile with myself at last/The way I live is almost as if I’m out for revenge against myself//chorus This is love-to be seen for who you are not what you were/This is grace-to be held as though you never made mistakes/This is You-drowning me in Your forgiveness//Like a broken record, it haunts me/Like a tape in my head, it taunts me/Like a knife in my heart, it’s tearing me apart-wounding daily/Then in my frailty//You come, You run/ into the middle of the street-You embrace me//You lift the needle from my record/In the silence I can hear /Your voice singing in my ear//This is love-I see you for who you are not what you were/This is grace-let me hold you all your past has been erased/This is me dancing with you in forgiveness
- Track Name: Coming To Us
- Your birth, my life/Your death, my price/Your rise, my hope/Your arms, my home//As we us kneel before You/We cry out to You/we love You,we love You//chorus O Holy Child,O Newborn King/Precious Savior of my soul/Lord Jesus Christ we lift You high/Thank You for coming to us/Thank You for coming to us//Thank you, Jesus/Thank you for coming to us/Thanks for becoming one of us//Thank You for becoming one of us/Thank You for coming to us
