Revision to new song

This is kind of final version, I have taken advice and replaced some weak or cliched words.
In him we live, the Lord of all creation
Who spoke his life into our hearts of stone
Filled with the breath of his own Holy Spirit
Jesus our source, our saviour and our home
He is the light who scatters all our darkness
Dispelling doubt and vanquishing our fear
He’s our abundance, life is overflowing
In him we live and walk, our way made clear.

In him we move, whose hands restored the broken
Changing forever those who dared believe
Commanded storms to cease with his authority
We’re by his side; his courage we receive
And by his Spirit we defeat dark powers
The sick are healed, the good news we proclaim
Jesus is Lord! This is our shout of triumph
In him we move, his is the highest name.

In him we are, his nature our inheritance
Our strivings quelled, our anxious voices stilled
The God of peace enriching our identity
Creating calm, with Sabbath rest we’re filled
And on that day when we shall stand before him
Perfect and whole, transformed, secure and free
The shadows gone, the earthly grave behind us
In him to live and move and ever be.
