Worship

Klender loves to tell stories about Christ's life and love in a way that helps you experience and feel the depth of Jesus and the true hope He provides. He has been writing worship songs for a number of years now and has also been an active worship leader in California. He just recently completed writing, producing and releasing a rock opera titled, "An Ordinary Day", which tells the entire story of Revelation. The show includes 25 songs which you may sample by visiting RevelationRockOpera.com

Klender accidentally (or wildly on purpose) just released 5 new albums of his own material. The album titles relate to the 5-star points of his favorite, tangled obsessions (Stories, Passion, Anthem, Cabernet & Worship). Klender also lives on, and runs, his own vineyard and boutique winery where he produces the gold medal, award-winning, Klender Estate Cabernet Sauvignon. He divides his time between his vineyard, winemaking and writing/producing music. You may listen to samples of his music below or if you CLICK on the TITLE, of any underlined song, it will take you to a detail webpage that highlights more information about that song, on this album. These pages include detailed Credits as well as music videos, video interviews and a Backstory about each song, which we believe you'll find interesting. A digital Box Set, of 35 songs, has also been released titled "Farewell", which contains an entertaining collection of his songs, from other albums.

View Lyrics

The King is Here (Enter In)

Awaiting glory, we tell His story
We shout our songs of praise
The Lamb has spoken, His body broken
An empty tomb we raise
Holiness and angels surround
Such majesty we fall to the ground

The King is here
The King is here
Holy Jesus, we welcome you… right here
The King is here
The King is here
Our Lord of mercy, how sweet the atmosphere, Enter In…

Lost in Your mystery, when love changed history
The day all Heaven cried
One holy ember, we will remember
The cross, You bled and died
The world will know Your victory & fame
Every knee will bow at Your name

The King is here
The King is here
Holy Jesus, we welcome you & cheer
The King is here
The King is here
Our Lord of mercy, how sweet the atmosphere, Enter In…
Instrumental

Your mist of change that roars like a fire
Keeps burning in the Spirit’s desire

The King is here
The King is here
Holy Jesus, we welcome you & cheer
The King is here
The King is here
Our Lord of mercy, how sweet the atmosphere, Enter In…

Enter in…
Enter in…
We praise You Lord, and long to live within
Enter in…
Enter in…
Lord of mercy, who saved us from our sin
Enter in…

The King is here
The King is here
Holy Jesus, we welcome you & cheer
The King is here
The King is here
Our Lord of mercy, how sweet the atmosphere, Enter In…

View Lyrics

God > I

Stars all bow down, at the sound of Your name
Heaven and Earth sing your fame
We each have a choice, to follow your voice
I lift up my hands and proclaim

God is greater, my Creator
God > I
One and only, He is Holy
God > I

Designer of love, the heart of the King
You gave the gift of Your Son
You made a way, I could never repay
I will declare, all You have done

God is greater, my Creator
God > I
One and only, He is Holy
God > I

When His kingdom comes, the final battle won
Every knee will bow, and tongue shall confess
Jesus Christ is Lord, His Word a mighty sword
We will rise & all the saints be blessed, Jesus

God is greater, my Creator
God > I
One and only, He is Holy (Holy Spirit, hear it)
God > I

Unending Grace

Here I sit with His Word in hand
Waiting for faith to arise
Love set in stone, His footprints in the sand
Carries me over the tides

How He shows His Unending Grace
It never runs out to the sea
Now I know His Unending Grace
All You have done for me, I’m free, Jesus

You warm my hands by the fire of life
Writing the script of my heart
Hope is believing, through all of the strife
Knowing we’re never apart

How He shows His Unending Grace
It never runs out to the sea
Now I know His Unending Grace
All You have done for me

How You show Your Unending Grace
It never runs out to the sea
Now I know Your Unending Grace
All You have done for me, I’m free, Jesus, I’m free

More Than Amazing

Oh, my Jesus, what can I say
I’m a vapor, You are Yahweh… repeat

Beautiful Savior, nailed to a cross
Laid down Your life once for all
Seated in Heaven, above all the earth
Yet patiently waits ‘til I call

You’re more than amazing
Greater than stars ‘cross the sky
More than amazing
He loved me so much, that He died

Holy Spirit, deep inside me
Always leading, right beside me

Wonderful counselor, voice of my heart
Renewing my life His one goal
Wisdom and knowledge, faith set apart
Giver of gifts for my soul

You’re more than amazing
Greater than stars ‘cross the sky
More than amazing
He loved me so much, that He died

The veil of the temple was torn by Your love
The grave could not hold You inside
Legions of Angels, shout ‘Hallelujah’
Death fell in defeat; You’re alive!

You’re More than amazing
Greater than stars cross the sky…
More than amazing
You love me so much, I love Him so much, He loves you so much
That He died, I could cry

Oh, my Jesus, You’re amazing, Holy Spirit, You’re amazing,
Abba Father, You’re amazing

View Lyrics

In Your Arms

In the stillness of the morning
When your sunlight hits my eyes
You’ll be smiling right beside me, inside
As I sip my morning coffee
I can look up to the sky
All the birds begin their singing, & we fly

I will never need to worry
I’m protected by the love
In Your arms

All the colors of your rainbow
Walk me through my busy day
For you have taught me to remember, to play

For your laughter’s always in me
I can’t wait ‘til I get home
For that flame is always burning, In Your arms

In the silence of the evening
Another day lays down to bed
I relive each precious memory, in my head
Like every sunset on the water
Like softest raindrops on the sea
You’ve been saving all your kisses,
For me

I will never need to worry
I’ll be sleeping safe from harm
Cause I’ll be dreaming all my love-life
In Your arms

Once & For All

"It is accomplished", I heard Him say
As He hung broken on my cross
All of humanity was saved that day
For those who believe He paid their cost

Once and for All, Christ died to save me
Once and for All, For God so loved the world
Once and for All, He rose again to free me from the Law
It's not about what WE should do, but what HE did
Once and for All

We share Your kingdom, of righteousness
In Earth as in Heaven Your will be done
Joyful saints go marching, we glorify Your name
To live in grace-filled mansions 'neath the Son

Once and for All, Christ died to save me
Once and for All, For God so loved the world
Once and for All, He rose again to free me from the Law
It's not about what WE should do, but what HE did
Once and for All

How Could Anyone Understand

I am broken by Your glory and Your presence
I am humbled by the mercy of Your smile
I am thankful for the narrow road less traveled
And despite my selfish heart, You send angels every mile

The courts of Heaven shout Your name
You’ve overcome my trials and pain
Gave up Your Darling, crucified to see me through

How could anyone understand Your mercy
How could anyone understand Your face
If I cried a hundred years, You would bottle all my tears
How could anyone understand God’s grace

I’m so joyful for Your promise of salvation
I’m so grateful for Your hope when man gives none
I just shake my head and bow in adoration
You don’t see my pride and sin, I’m forgiven by Your Son

I used to hide my heart of steel
But now I know, this Love is real
When Your Word of Truth comes crashing thru my soul

How could anyone understand… repeat

Lord of All

All Jesus had was a kingdom and cross
Passion and grace and a heart for the lost
Love… for His Father’s will
Took on the curse, let His Word fulfill
You’re the anchor of my soul
Guide me boldly to Your throne

Jesus is Lord, saved my life, set me free
Captain of hope, on a cross, died for me
He’s always here, whenever I call
Jesus is Lord, Lord of all

All that He asks is that you believe
Speak with your mouth, and you shall receive
Faith… moves a mountain wide
Mercy and grace, fill that void inside
Bow down, cast crowns, praise the King
Once lost, now found, millions sing…

Jesus is Lord, saved my life, set me free
Captain of hope, on a cross, died for me
He’s always here, whenever I fall
Jesus is Lord, Lord of all

Bow down, cast crowns, praise the King
Once lost, now found, billions sing…

Jesus is Lord, saved my life, set me free…
Captain of hope, on a cross, died for me
He’s always here, whenever I call (fall)
Jesus is Lord, Lord of all

Give Your Life to Jesus

Come hear the call…come hear Him call…

Each day when y open my eyes, I’m thankful all over again
As I reach for Your Word learning stories about my friend
For God the Father so loved this world
He gave you the gift of His Son
That whosoever believes in Him
Will be the victorious one

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the way, and Heaven forever is home

Come hear the call…come hear Him call…

Some try to say there’s a better life
And how I’m a fool to believe
But I’ll carry the cross
With His heart out on my sleeve
How I pray you will see the light
When I see that hurt in your eyes
But if all you can see is the change in me
At least you will know He’s alive

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the Truth, and Heaven forever is home, Come hear Him call..

You turned down the chance too many times
When the feeling wasn’t right
Why do you drown in the darkness
When you can dance in the light

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the Truth, and Heaven forever is home; Come hear Him call…

Come hear the call…come hear Him call…

Each day when y open my eyes, I’m thankful all over again
As I reach for Your Word learning stories about my friend
For God the Father so loved this world
He gave you the gift of His Son
That whosoever believes in Him
Will be the victorious one

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the way, and Heaven forever is home

Come hear the call…come hear Him call…

Some try to say there’s a better life
And how I’m a fool to believe
But I’ll carry the cross
With His heart out on my sleeve
How I pray you will see the light
When I see that hurt in your eyes
But if all you can see is the change in me
At least you will know He’s alive

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the Truth, and Heaven forever is home, Come hear Him call..

You turned down the chance too many times
When the feeling wasn’t right
Why do you drown in the darkness
When you can dance in the light

When you give your life to Jesus, You’ll never be walking alone
When you give your life to Jesus
You’ve found the Truth, and Heaven forever is home; Come hear Him call…

View Lyrics

In Your Liberty

Each man has the right to choose his own master
Is your’s money, or self, or God alone?
You can search for the truth or flirt with disaster
Seek a moment of fame or serve the Throne

All of this knowledge, power and freedom
Placed in our selfish little hands
New children of faith, they watch us build kingdoms
They may not hear our words, but believe me, they understand

In Your liberty, love is calling me
To put the needs of them before my own
In Your liberty, love is all I see
A softened heart can break the stumbling stone

So who will decide the future we fashion
Which rules are right and which rites are wrong
Seduced by our pride, or ruled by compassion
When we lift up the weak, in mercy, then we are strong

In Your liberty, love is calling me

When the parties over…and the thrill is gone
What will you leave them… to carry on, to carry on
In Your liberty, love is calling me

View Lyrics

I’ve Just Seen Heaven

How do I tell you, what these eyes have seen
Who would believe a man like me
How do I show them, what does it mean
What life everlasting will be
Brighter than sunlight, Jasper and pearls
Crystalline rivers that flow
Choirs of angels, sing a new song
To Jesus the Lamb our crowns we throw

I’ve just seen Heaven, eternal home
In all God’s glory love is flowing from His throne
I’ve just seen Heaven, streets filled with gold
The greatest story that God has ever told

Perfect salvation, for all who believe
Grace for the price of a prayer
Gather the nations, for all to receive
Lord, I just can’t wait to be there
Layers of gemstones, transparent glass
Magnificent mansions on high
Radiant wedding, beautiful bride
Christ on the clouds up in the sky

I’ve just seen Heaven, eternal home
In all God’s glory love is flowing from the throne
I’ve just seen Heaven, streets paved with gold
The greatest story that God has ever told

I’ve just seen Heaven, eternal home
In all God’s glory love is pouring from His throne
I’ve just seen Heaven, streets paved with gold
The greatest story that God has ever told
