tell me the story about the Man
who came down from the sky
who healed the broken hearted with His hand
and dried the tear-dimmed eye
oh, i would give anything
to see Him face to face and
oh He gave us everything
to make the world a better place
Chorus
oh, where does that kind of love come from
they say that it runs in His blood
oh, where can i find that kind of love
they say it runs in His blood
the way He died upon the cross
was that the only way
to save the children who were lost
will he back again some day
oh i would give anything
to see Him face to face and
oh, He gave us everything to make the world a better place
Chorus
oh, i want to find that kind of love
they say that it runs in His blood
oh, where does that kind of love come from
they say that it runs in His blood
oh, where can i find that kind of love
Cornered at a costume ball
By a handful of disguises
So I tried them all on
And they were all the right sizes
I wore them obviously
Though they would choke the life from me
I got here by myself
But I know that I will never leave the same way
I got here by myself
But how many more will I have led astray
I work the floor in search of someone
Who would give me half a chance
I know if I look hard enough
I'll always find someone who'll dance
I got here by myself
But I know that I will never leave the same way
I got here by myself
But how many more will I have led astray
It's not long before I notice
There are no doors to be seen
I can see I'm going nowhere
Somewhere that I've already been
I got here by myself
But I know that I will never leave the same way
I got here by myself
But how many more will I have led astray
I got here by myself
But I know that I will never leave the same way
I got here by myself
For so long we walk in darkness
Hoping to find the way
But without something or someone to guide us
We stumble blindly day after day
So He lights candles in hopes that we'll see
Glimpses of Him in this mystery
That we'll leave shadows and move toward the flame
And we move closer we'll see His face
To face with the One who made mountains
Who hung the stars in the sky
He is love and loved us so much
That He was willing to die
Dies for the man on the corner
Who sold his soul years ago
And now knows of only regret
To trade His life for the woman
Who doesn't think mercy
Is something that she'll ever get
Hope to all who are hopeless
Who've ever known kindness
He has not forgotten your name
You are loved by the One Who
With His Own hands has made you
And loves you forever the same
So He lights candles in hopes that we'll see
Glimpses of Him in this mystery
That we'll leave shadows and move toward the flame
he painted 'i love you' on the bridge
then watched them burn
she bet all she had upon the love
no she's holding her cards and lost her turn
two hearts in search of wholeness
both willing to risk it all
could true love have fled so easily
leaving both broken from the fall
not the love i know
it knows no boundaries
keeps on recored of wrongs
thats the love i know
it takes the good with the bad
and it fights to stay strong
that's the love i know
this love always finds a way to carry on
that's the love i know
he sits all alone and stares into and empty sky
she goes through all her mixed emotions
trying to find a reason why
was their pride too big to swallow
was their hurt too deep to heal
could they find some understanding
find forgiveness that's real
that's the love i know
it speaks in kindness
it seeks only what's true
that's the love i know
a love without condition it looks to renew
that's the love in know
it knows that when hope seems gone
hope will come through
that's the love i know
the love i know comes form a holy god to man
isn't it time that you received it
are you starting to understand
the love i know
that's the love i know
it speaks in kindness it seeks only what's true
that's the love i know
a love without condition it looks to renew
that's the love i know
it knows that when hope seems gone hope will come through
that's the love i know
I'm remembering the words inside my head
I heard them yesterday
A whisper telling me that life waits up ahead
Beyond the day to day
Through this world will hand me my fair share of pain
Leave me broken and bruised
I know there's a Father and His Son who know my name
And They will see me through, oh yeah, I know
I believe He paid the price
A sacrifice so we could be together, forever
And I know when I see Jesus' face
All my tears will be erased forever, forever
Hidden in my heart
The day He called me friend
The day He set me free
I found Him one summer day
Or better said, Jesus, You found me
I gave You my loneliness and broken heart
You gave to me Your love, Your love
I've come to know
I've come to know love
I've come to know the truth
I've come to know
I've come to know love
I believe he paid the price
A sacrifice so we could be together, forever
And i do believe I'll see the face
do you feel like you wake up everyday
to watch your life slide right by
is it slipping away
does the question call to your mind
are you just doing time

i say yes

but you got know

would you like a little peace in your life
well, wouldn't you
are you gonna know love tonight
wiul you stand in the corner again
Pour me out
'Til there's nothing left of me
Pour me out
Pour me out
So that someday I might see
Pour me out
I want to lose myself
In finding You
Embracing grace and facing truth
Tear down these walls that dim
The shape I'm in
Pour me out
From my river to your sea
Pour me out
Pour me out
Let me ride on waves of peace
Pour me out
I want to understand
This greater plan
How character can shape a man
Your image surrounding me
One more death defying trick up your sleeve
Can you make it disappear?
Turn the skeptic into one who believes
Until I'm in the clear
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling down
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling now
All the vox humana echoing
Crying one who's heard out loud
Through the madness, can you still hear me?
Am only from the crowd
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling down
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling now
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling down
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling now
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling down
Help me, I'm falling
Help me, I'm falling now
Everything is rising past me
Take my hand you've got to catch me
I believe I could see my life clearer
Walking in Amsterdam
There's an ocean between
Who I am and who I was?
Walking in Amsterdam
Now I run
Everyone of my days have become
A pursuit of what I once had
Can I get it back? Can I get it back?
Can I get back to the time
When every step had purpose?
I was so clearly defined
Someday, I'll resurface
Walking in Amsterdam
Now I run
Everyone of my days have become
A pursuit of what I once had
Can I get it back? Can I get it back?
Now I run
Everyone of my days, look at what they've become
A pursuit of what I once had
Can I get it back? Can I get it back?
(Patrick Andrews)
And the band marches
on and on and on
without slowing
And their leader leads
them on and on and on
without knowing
Never looking back to see
the mess that they had
left behind
The media mediates
between the masses and
the myth it creates
But it never knows the
damage grows the more
it bends the truth
They tell us what they
want us to hear
They patronize our
aching ears
It's all too clear the
wealths of violence and
sexual perversion
Offer more than just
some innocent
psychological diversion
They have left so many
bleeding, needing help
from Christ the King
We don't have to watch
what they want us to see
Yet we've let them bind
our hands and feet
How can you say, "let's all
remain unaffected," when
No lines were drawn, the
band just marches on
And they forget you
I retreat by myself at the back of my brain
I cannot see what You're showing me through this pain
I have found that I have found
Nothing for so long
I don't understand, I don't need to
I know You've a plan, You will see through
It is in Your hands, I believe You
I say goodbye, I leave my loved ones far behind
I'm asking why is this is the story of my life
I have found that I have found
Nothing for so long
I don't understand, I don't need to
I know You've a plan, You will see through
It is in Your hands, I believe You
I was only wondering
I've been trying to understand
I know there is more
So much more than I can see
I don't understand, I don't need to
I know You've a plan, You will see through
It is in Your hands, I believe You
I don't understand, I don't need to
I know You've a plan, You will see through
puppy love puppy love
yes she gave all she had
not like a brother or sister more like a mom or a dad
we never asked her never gave her a choice
we just barked out commands
sit stay don't beg
stop licking my hand
those days are gone now
i wish goldie could come out and play
goldie's last day
godlie's last day
if a picture paints a thousand words
there's nothing left to say
i wish you coulda been there for goldies's last day
she was eleven to you and me whats that in dog years
77 thats more than 11 she outlived her peers
the talk around town is that goldie passed away
goldie's last day
godlie's last day
if a picture paints a thousand words
there's nothing left to say
i wish you coulda been there for goldies's last day
we are confident that this incident was not an accident
as per our investigation
we are confident that this incident was not an accident
we are confident that this incident was not an accident
this incident was not an accident
oooo, goldie's last day
goldie's last day
if a picture paints a thousand words there's nothing left to say
wish you coulda been there for goldie's last day
She takes the six o'clock train
It's off to work and then home again
She wonders if this will ever change
Clutching her pillow, she hides in a dark
Room in her heart
How long has it been
Since love touched her and she let in
Chased out the shadows, filled emptiness
With her head in her hands, she cries
"Come back again, I need you, my friend"
We fight on our knees but don't often see
The battles that rage being won
But fight on, we will and tarry until
Love comes to carry us on
To kneel with the broken in spirit
And call upon the Son
So many holes here within
Torn apart and then blown by the wind
Hell and high water come crashing in
Pride says to fight but he cannot defend
This means to an end
The truth cuts like a blade
Bleeding all of the plans that he made
Nothing but faith in the One who came
Can ever bring peace to the spirit again
Will he understand?
We fight on our knees for those who might see
The battle is over, it's won
Not by our hands, by the Son of man
He who is has overcome
Death and the grave hold no power
To those who call upon the Son
We fight on our knees but don't often see
The battles that rage being won
But fight on, we will and tarry until
Love comes to carry us on
To kneel with the broken in spirit
Just when you think you've seen it all
You find the question
Looming like a shadow overhead
Reawakens your obsession
To find the truth and put your doubts to bed
On and on and round and round
Here among the lost and found
Listening for a certain sound, even a whisper
Until the truth brings you around
Keeping one ear to the ground
And when you finally see the Light in all its glory
Shining on the truth of who you are
One more searcher with a story
A wiser fool who's following a star
On and on and round and round
Here among the lost and found
Listening for a certain sound, even a whisper
Until the truth brings you around
Keeping one ear to the ground, ground
On and on and round and round
Here among the lost and found
Listening for a certain sound, even a whisper
Until the truth brings you around
Keeping one ear to the ground
On and on and round and round
Here among the lost and found
Listening for a certain sound, even a whisper
Until the truth brings you around
Keeping one ear to the ground
He's brought me here where things are clear
And trials turn to gold
He shared with me His victory
He won in days of gold
Oh Lord, I don't deserve the riches of your world
But you changed my filthy rags to linen white as snow
The view from here is nothing near
To what it is for You
I've tried to see Your plan for me
But I only acted like I knew
Oh Lord, forgive the times I've tried to read Your mind
'Cause You said if I'd be still then I would hear Your voice
My Lord, my King, my urge to sing
And praise the things above
No words could say the glorious way
You've changed me with Your love
He's brought me here where things are clear
And trials turn to gold
Let me go back
And do it all over again
What I know now
I wish I knew then
There's a pain
That just will not die
Let me hear you say, it's okay
Let me hear you say, it's alright
I could really use some words of comfort
So I won't be alone tonight
So I won't be alone tonight
Let me move on
I've said, I was sorry
Help me look out
And see the sun again
'Cause there's a pain
That someday must die
Let me hear you say, it's okay
Let me hear you say, it's alright
I could really use some words of comfort
So I won't be alone tonight
So I won't be alone tonight
Let me hear you say, it's okay
Let me hear you say, it's alright
I could really use some words of comfort
So I won't be alone tonight
Let me hear you say, it's okay
Let me hear you say, it's alright
I could really use some words of comfort
So I won't be alone tonight
So I won't be alone tonight
So I won't be alone tonight
I try too hard
Persuasion never wins
So let me start again
And here it is as plain as day
These words not mine but His
And this is what they say
My hands they made you
My breath I gave you
My son, He saves you
If you want to you can wear My name
My love unending
My truth unbending
I want you to wear My name
I'm just like you
Our sin, a cross, His son
As your friends we come
So here we are another verse
A different view, God as a Father
Us, His pursuit
My hands they made you
My breath I gave you
My son, He saves you
If you want to you can wear My name
My love unending
My truth unbending
I want you to wear My name
Unending, unbending
I want you
My hands they made you
My breath I gave you
My son, He saves you
If you want to you can wear My name
My love unending
My truth unbending
I want you to wear My name
My hands they made you
My breath I gave you
My son, He saves you
If you want to you can wear My name
My love unending
My truth unbending
I want you to wear My name
One thing's for certain
I want you to wear My name
Standing over my garden I look down
And disappointment overcomes me
The tears that formed are now falling from my eyes
And watering the ground around me
Lost inside this dissolution
I hear you say my name
I hear you calling
I hear you calling to me
I hear you calling
Faith, like a flower, needs water and room to grow
Placed in sunlight, not in shadow
Hope that the seed that is hidden will rise and bloom
From the heart of one forgiven
Love runs in the living water
I've heard you say my name
I hear you calling
I hear you calling to me
I hear you calling
I hear you calling
I hear you calling to me
I hear you call
I hear you calling
I hear you calling to me
I hear you calling
This was not my idea
No, I would not have though of this
Though I admit there was evidence
Surely not enough to convict
That a man was not his own
And there was more than day to day
How there could be a promise of hope
And healing that the soul might live again
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now, I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of one living
To save this dying man
Now, as I look at these pages
I see a story told in whole
Not just segments or phrases
But a story of the soul
And now a man was not his own
And there was more than day to day
How there can be a promise of hope
And healing that the soul might live again
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now, I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of one living
To save this dying man
Never would've bought it
Never would've thought it could be
Never would've held it
Until it took hold of me, hold of me
Now, I've found freedom
Now mercy holds my hand
It took the grace of one living
To save this dying man
Never would've bought it
(Verse 1)
I used to do okay on my own
Think I was made of stone
And I could carry a heavy load
Never thought that one day I'd be all alone
And then the road got long
I saw I was wrong
And had no one to lean upon
But you kept me from falling far below
And taught me somethin' I had never known, that
(Chorus)
You Lord, You Lord
Can hold my heart in Your hand
And You Lord, You Lord
Can change me in a fleeting glance
And You Lord, You Lord
Can push me to know greather things
(Verse 2)
If I had a dime for every time
I've tried to live this on my own
I guess I'd be a rich man wouldn't I (be a rich man)
But money never bought me peace, love or happiness
It only seemed to make a mess
And right about then I'd open my eyes
And once again I realize
(Repeat Chorus)
(Refrain)
Push me out
Until I stand on stone and say I've made a choice
Push me down
Until I'm on my knees and listening for Your voice
Push me around
Until my life touches others and they see
What I've found
Show me how
I can take this life and give it away
(Repeat Chorus)
Daydreaming again
Trying to get my mind together
Seeing what could be
Will it take forever?
Let me have this moment
Let me take this minute for myself
A silence, oh, so sweet
Silence shared with someone else
Wanting to escape
I close my eyes
And all the day's confusion
Just passes by
My only release
Is to call on You
A comforting conversation
A message is getting through
This is my time
This is my time
This is ours to share
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is ours to share
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is my time
This is all our eyes can see
I close my eyes,You're in this place
Sometimes I look, I see your face
I close my eyes,You're in this place
She wallows in her misery
What made her think that this would be
That this would be any different
From the first mistake she made?
Still she dove without a care
For the second time around she'll pay
And wallow in her misery
The first to fail, the last to flee
She thought she'd figured out the answer
To some long forgotten page
From some long forgotten book
On how to get her own way
I've tried and tried to tell her
It's not what you do
It's what you've done
With what you did
I've tried to tell her
She wallows in her misery
A failure at failure she fails to see
That this overacted part
From this never ending play
Is just her substitute
For reality anyway
I've tried and tried to tell her
It's not what you do
It's what you've done
With what you did
I've tried to tell her
I've tried and tried to tell her
I've tried and tried to tell her
It's not what you do
It's what you've done
With what you did
I've tried to tell her
I've tried and tried to tell her
It's not what you do
It's what you've done
With what you did
I never want to be satisfied
Just when I thought I had everything it was a lie
For so long now I've been wasting time
Wasting time
Winter springs or summer fall
The seasons never cared at all
That I was never changing
My colors stayed the same
But when days go by and I'm not growing
The leaves fall off the bare what I'm not showing
That I've never had my feet wet
And for that I am to blame
I never want to be satisfied
Just when I thought I had everything it was a lie
For so long now I've been wasting time
Wasting time
I've sat and watched the tide go out
But I did not chase, no I did not doubt
The water would return to shore
And meet me once again
And I've known the truth and understood
Or thought I did, or thought I could
Be satisfied with points of view
But I'm tired of the din
I never want to be satisfied
Just when I thought I had everything it was a lie
For so long now I've been wasting time
Wasting time
Winter spring or summer fall
The seasons never cared at all
Winter spring or summer fall
I'm still changing
Winter spring or summer fall
The seasons never cared at all
Winter spring or summer fall
I'm still changing
I never want to be satisfied
Just when I thought I had everything it was a lie
For so long now I've been wasting time
Wasting time
Winter spring or summer fall
The seasons never cared at all
Winter spring or summer fall
I'm still changing
Winter spring or summer fall
The seasons never cared at all
Winter spring or summer fall
His petty problems
Now left behind
No hesitation
Purely divine
The first revelation was that he would be free
His second was he'd drown in grace
His frowning face replaced irresistibly
The floor meets his knees
He's come and everyone in the kingdom wears a smile
Because He's won
Oh, He's come and waves of joy spread across the kingdom
Smile because He's won the battle
All the excuses
That you have brought
No explanation
Was ever sought
To stand before the King of Kings
To taste a kiss of life beyond
No expectations just your barren self
That's how He sees you anyway, life is yours today
You've come and everyone in the kingdom
Wears a smile because He's won
Oh, You've come and waves of joy
Spread across the kingdom smile because He's won the battle
You've come and everyone in the kingdom
Wears a smile because He's won
Oh, You've come and waves of joy
Spread across the kingdom smile because He's won the battle
You've come and everyone in the kingdom
Wears a smile because He's won
Oh, You've come and waves of joy
Spread across the kingdom smile because He's won the battle
(Verse 1)
Born in a dry season
Wind and sand have blown through me
Haven't found shade anywhere
Only moments of relief
But sometimes I think I hear thunder
Somewhere on the horizon line
If I could just find a way to get under
The rain that could reach this soul of mine
(Chorus)
I pray for rain to come in and wash away
What has made me numb
I pray for a raging storm to drown the sin in me
And the rain comes in the nick of time
I swallow hard cause my throat's been dry
The rain comes beating on my skin
Till I'm washed away nothing left within
When Your rain comes
Your rain comes
(Verse 2)
Seasons have passed so quickly
Since I felt that first big storm
Still there have been times of drought
When I've prayed for the clouds to form
I often hear thunder and know of its coming rain
Many times in my life I'll kneel under
The moving showers that brought this change
(Verse 1)
If there is only one god
Why do we serve so many
If there is only one law
Why do we live like there aren't any
I'm not trying to get you down
I just want you to know
That if you going to live for God
You've got to let go
(Chorus 1)
Got to let go of the little things
Before they get you down
Got to let go or they'll drag you to the bottom
And hold you down
It's a war we all fight
And compromise is the battleground
But if you're never gonna grow
You've got to let go
(Verse 2)
If there's only one truth
One original way
Why do we search like blind men
Can't see the sunshine in the light of day
We've got to turn around
And run the other way
Cause if we're gonna live for God
We've got to turn away
(Chorus 2)
Turn away from the little things
Before they get us down
Turn away or they'll drag us to the bottom
And hold us down
It's a war we'll fight
And compromise is the battleground
But if we're ever gonna change
We've got to turn away
(Repeat Chorus)
Father of Love
Look upon me now
How I've come this far
Only You know how
You've changed my life
Made me whole
All I am now
To You I owe it all
You are reality
You alone are life
You take a heart so dull
And make it shine so bright
To burn for You
And all you are, a light in the night
A guiding star
You are
Here are all my burdens
I lift them up to You
Your Words they ease my mind
Your gentleness shines through
Giving us hope
Where hope is all gone
Never retreating
Sending us on and on
(Verse 1)
I know You
I know doubt you doubt what I am saying
You think that I've seen deceived
To follow after what some call a weak man's haven
It seems so simple that it's hard to believe
(Chorus)
I can't understand why you would walk away from love
No I don't understand why you would walk away from love
Just can't understand why you would walk away from love
I'll never understand why you would walk away
(Verse 2)
Maybe I'm right and He's waiting at the table
Maybe it happened when I saw it was my sin
Maybe He's waiting for a chance to show you true love
Maybe you'll never get this chance again
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
I'm a fool, so are you
I'm a fool, so are you
Maybe you think I'm a fool for what I'm saying
Maybe that's what I'd like to be
Or maybe you're a fool to say You're a wise man
Either way you lose unless you meet with my King
(Repeat Chorus x2)
You don't have to say it out loud
One look can cut to the bone
A quick glare when the angry hurts there
Tells me just what I've done wrong
Your eyes can speak to me
Deeper than words can go
Your eyes can reach for me
Tears are the language of the soul
When a smile lights up your eyes
Laughter can't say what you could
With your sweet stare, it's like Heaven is there
An overflow of everything good
Your eyes can speak to me
Deeper than words can go
Your eyes can reach for me
Tears are the language of the soul
Dancing waters, dark harbors
Tears have every reason to fall
Like pounding rain or gentle whispers
Oh, I listen when they talk
Your eyes can speak to me
Deeper than words can go
Your eyes can reach for me
Tears are the language of the soul
Your eyes can speak to me
Deeper than words can go
Your eyes can reach for me
(Verse 1)
You know for certain that you are a liar
You told me yourself you know it's true
But you won't put two and two together
You know the sum will expose you
(Chorus)
And you wonder why you feel this way
And you wonder how long it will take to heal
And you wonder what you did to get here
And you wonder who will save you from you
(Verse 2)
You've tried everything that has been in your reach
But none of it seems to satisfy
So like a man lost at sea your thrist leads you to drink the water
The more you drink the more your throat runs dry and you wonder why
And you wonder why you feel this way
And you wonder how long it will take to heal
And you wonder what you did to get here
And you wonder who will save you from you
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
And you wonder why you feel this way
And you wonder how long it will take to heal
And you wonder what you did to get here
And you wonder who will save you from you
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
And you wonder why
I couldn't find myself today
I got lost in my reflection
Retracing stepsall along the way
Back to days with no direction
I wasn't wishing for those times to come again
No it was more of a reminder
Of where and what and how I'd been
Living my life without connection
Who knew my heart and my intentions
He said that all could be forgiven
If I could trust in One who'd risen
And that's when His mercy came to me
(Chorus)
I was saved by the Mercy man
He touched my heart
He helped me understand
That there was shelter in unfailing love
If I'd just take the Hand
Hand of the Mercy Man
(Verse 2)
All these expectations
That I'd placed upon myself
How I would conquer the giants
With the help of no one else
But I was wrong - I was mistaken
What I thought was the truth
Was not the truth at all
And that's when I heard Mercy call
(Chorus x2)
But I was wrong - I was mistaken
What I thought was the truth
Was not the truth at all
(Chorus x2)
He took my hand
Holds my heart
The Mercy Man
(Verse 1)
I am more that this flesh and bone
By myself I wander the streets alone
But when my dream is over and morning creeps on in
I pull the covers back and I feel your warmth again
(Chorus)
There is something inside that my heart can't explain
But by the grace of God I am made whole again
In the times I have fallen and when I felt the shame
Yet by the grace of God I am made whole again
(Verse 2)
Sold in my pride I said I know
So I bought the lie and I chained my soul
But mercy runs deep and seeks to fill
And empty well of shadow that one day will reveal
(Repeat Chorus x2)
(Verse 1)
The sun will shine I'll smile from time to time
And sing the song 'cause life goes on
(Chorus)
But it don't mean a thing
Without You and the love You bring
It won't mean a thing without You
(Verse 2)
The wounds will heal starting over ain't no big deal
They rebuild Rome and life goes on
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 3)
The lesson learned we all must take out turn
And carry on 'cause life goes on
But it don't mean a thing
Without You and the love You bring
No it won't mean a thing
Without You and the love You bring
No it won't mean a thing without You
Without You
Without You
Without You
(Verse 1)
I'm looking for peace I'm hoping to find
Something to slow down the hands of time
It's all slipping away moving so fast
It's out of my reach and out of my grasp
I'm searching for truth I know it must be
Somewhere just around the corner from me
I've been feeling a need from something inside
A need for a change a change in my life
(Chorus)
And it's You, Jesus (only You and You alone)
You found me so deep in the dark
And You called out my name
Yes You, Jesus (only You and You alone)
You gave me some place to start
To start over again
It's You
(Verse 2)
I was looking for hope in my dim lit ideals
Thinking I might stumble onto something that's real
But so many years of being so blind
Of holding my own of saying I'm fine
Then You gave me faith not of my own
And it brought both the peace and hope like I'd never known
You said You'd forgive if I would believe
That You were the Son of a God yet unseen
(Chorus 2)
And it's You, Jesus (only You and You alone)
You gave me faith to believe
And the mercy to see
That it's You, Jesus (only You and You alone)
You gave me all of my worth
By loving me first
It's You
And it's You Jesus
You gave me all of my worth
By loving me first
(Only You and You alone)
You found me so deep in the dark
And You called out my name
Yes You, Jesus (only You and You alone)
You gave me some place to start
To start over again
It's You
(Verse 1)
I'm not here to reform you nor am I here to iake you away
I've been sent with a message and now moving off in a south-bound parade
(Chorus)
If this were my last breath I tell you where I'll be
Then I'd ask you if you'd be there with me
(Verse 2)
Nobody knows really how long you will be here still you hazard your faith
As my last day grows closer I rest in the confidence I have been saved
(Repeat Chorus x2)
You don't know how long
And I don't know how long
We don't have to say a word
Sometimes it's better when we don't
Apologies aren't always heard
Sit beside me through the storm
The cloud above will take another form
(Chorus)
It would be so it easy for you to walk away
All I can tell you is
I want you to stay
Forget that man I was before
My eyes are open to the sky
Mine back lay flat against another shore
I can't erase mistakes I've made
And I can't stand to have them bring you pain
(Chorus)
The clouds are empty
They roll away
The sky is silent
I am amazed
That you are still sitting here
When you could have left me
To drift away
(Chorus)
(Verse 1)
Hangin' on a string
Walkin' a tightrope
I've been relying on myself
For far too long
Livin' on my own
And thinkin' I'd cope
Why'd I put you on the shelf
Oh I was wrong
Livin' on good intentions
Never got me very far
Only with Your direction
Can I get to where You are
(Chorus)
Home again
I've been gone way too long
Home again
I don't want to roam no more
I'm where I belong
(Verse 2)
I must have thought
Dreamin' again out of habit
Somethin' 'bout tryin' to get myself ahead
Led to want it all
Then remembering I had it
I've been down that road
And I won't go back again
I didn't ask to be over you
I didn't want to see you standing here, black and blue
Thought you could set me free, the irony
Now you can't let it go, let it go
I can't lie, it's okay that it worked out this way
I'm still here and you're gone, you're all gone
It's no crime, it's no sin, just start over again
I'm okay that you're gone, you're all gone, yeah
Can you remember me, the slave I was?
It all turned out to be not enough
Never occurred to you that I would be
The one to let it go, let it go
I can't lie, it's okay that it worked out this way
I'm still here and you're gone, you're all gone
It's no crime, it's no sin, just start over again
I'm okay that you're gone, you're all gone
I can't lie, it's okay that it worked out this way
I'm still here and you're gone, you're all gone
It's no crime, it's no sin, just start over again
I'm okay that you're gone, you're all gone, yeah
I can't lie, it's okay that it worked out this way
I'm still here and you're gone, you're all gone
There's no crime, there's no sin, just start over again
here i am once again pleading to the sky
kneeling to the sands shedding my regrets
knowning you'll forget everything
why didn't i go to such great lengths to
try to please you instead i tried to please myself
in the end when your heart is broken
is see the folly of trying to please myself
i have not yet arrived seeing anything
quiet my desires till they die
until they die
or align with you will
why didn't i got to such great lengths to
try to please you instead i tried to please myself
in the end when your heart is broken
i see the folly of trying to please myself
why didn't i got to such great lengths to
try to please you instead i tried to please myself
in the end when your heart is broken
you gotta reach out and take it
before it goes by too fast
they say life it what you make it
i think we made it at last
some people say we're crazy
but we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
you and me we got something to say
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
just because you think you're lucky well
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
but you and me got something inside
and i think we're gonna make it
you got your four wheels spinning
you dig em down in the ground
just when you think you're winning
they're all putting you down
some people say we're crazy
but we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
you and me we got something to say
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
just because you think you're lucky well
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
but you and me got something inside
i think we're gonna make it, yeah, yeah
round round round spinning around
round round round spinning around
round round round spinning around
round
some people say we're crazy
but we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
you and me we got something to say
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
just because you think you're lucky well
we're all spinnin round
we're all spinnin round
but you and me got something inside
There's a forest in my heart
No, I'm not crazy
I can feel the trees
Reaching out toward the sky
But the sun is setting hard
Somehow that changes me
Maybe you have seen
How the light can leave my eyes...
There's a forest in my heart
It seems so crazy
'Cause I've tried to climb
Every tree that shades my mind
But with every try I find
The branches breaking
(And), I'm alone and cold
Like the shadows left behind...
There's a forest in my heart
I must be crazy
To believe that I
Could climb to reach the sky
For I know that in its time
The sun will come to me
And in warmth in love
I will rise above the sky...
Daddy never cried, he just turned away
Never showed the side that was soft as clay
What a weak reply
You live inside a blanket of blame
Why would you need a gift of pardoning
Until your sin becomes your own?
Soon comes inevitable reckoning
Then you'll understand
Just how much true love can change a man
Daddy never cried, will not work today
Put your pride aside, we all need grace
Somewhere deep inside
What you love is what you need to hate
When will you stop blaming somebody else?
You make decisions on your own
You choose to leave the truth for nonsense
Do you understand
Just how much the truth can change a man?
Daddy never
Why would you need a gift of pardoning
Until your sin becomes your own?
Soon comes inevitable reckoning
Then you'll understand
Just how much true love can change a man
Daddy never cried
(Verse 1)
Too many hearts
On too many strings
We could cut them down
But instead we let'em hang in the breeze
Oh my brother, Tell me why
And why is my sister down on her knees
Crying out won't somebody love me
And where are we
(Chorus)
Didn't He love them
Didn't He hold out His hand
Wasn't Jesus a model, An example to man
Of how we must love everyone in this land
And give till it hurts
Isn't that part of the plan
But we can't see through our religious charade
to take what he's given
And give love away
(Verse 2)
One more night
No place to call home
A torn-up jacket on his back
It's getting pretty cold
Where do I stand, Do I reach out my hand
And one more child's face
On my TV screen
She's dying of hunger
Why can't we meet her need
And where are we
(Repeat Chorus)
But we can't see through our holy facade
To do one more thing that were called to by God
Didn't He love us
Didn't He hold out His hand
Wasn't Jesus a model
An example to man
He said love every person
Everyone in this land
To give till it hurts
Wasn't that part of the plan
But we've all been blinded
By our selfish ways
Can we change this pattern
Will we stay the same
(Chorus x2)
Didn't He Love them...
There is no reason to run anymore
No reason to hide away
Since He's come into my life
He's brought sunshine to my day
I will let my light shine, no more shadows
I will let my light shine, darkness run away
I will let my light shine for a bright tomorrow
I will let my light shine
No more casting shadows
No more living lies
Since He's come into my life
He's brought sunshine to my skies
I will let my light shine, no more shadows
I will let my light shine, darkness run away
I will let my light shine for a bright tomorrow
I will let my light shine
I will let my light shine, no more shadows
I will let my light shine, darkness run away
I will let my light shine for a bright tomorrow
(Verse 1)
The roof caved in
And the walls crumbled
And their I stood exposed
Clutching my chest in fear
How'd I end up here
Bad decisions one right after the other
Moved like waves pulled by the moon
Like a puppet who's tugged on by a string
Like water tumbling down string
I was lost
(Chorus)
Blind man deaf boy
And the lover of me
And where did it lead to
I fought air as I was drowning
In that rushing stream
As the water poured over me
(Verse 2)
Off the bridge I threw my heart
As if it didn't matter
I walked the edge so fearlessly
Blindfolded by my lustful eyes
Deafened bya string of lies
But You saw me there
In my same condition
And Your eyes held me in Your stare
You gazed into my empty soul
Spoke the words that burned a hole
In my heart
(Chorus 2)
Blind man deaf boy
Now see and hear
Did you think that I'd not find you
Don't you know that I'm the lover of souls
And I came to be near
From this very earth I made you
(Bridge)
Some of us like sheep have gone astray
Some of us like fools live for today
And then it's gone and we're left with nothing
We fight to hold it all inside our hands
Somehow we think we'll understand
What no eye has ever seen and no mind comprehended
Blind man deaf boy
And the lover of me
And where did it lead to
Blind man deaf boy
Now hear and see
Did you think that I'd not find you
Blind man deaf boy
you know for certain that you are a liar
you told me yourself you know the truth
but you won't two and two together
you know the sum would expose you
and you wonder why you feel this way
and you wonder how long it will take to heal
and you wonder what you did to get here
and you wonder who will save you from you
you've tried everything
that has been in your reach
but none of it seems to satisfy
so like a man lost at sea your thirst leads you tot drink the water
the more you drink the more your throat runs dry and you wonder why
and you wonder why youfeel this way
and you wonder how long it will take to heal
and you wonder what you did to get here
and you wonder who will save you from you
and you wonder why
and you wonder why
and you wonder why
and you wonder why you feel this way
and you wonder how long it will take to heal
and you wonder what you did to get here
and you wonder who will save you from you
and you wonder why
and you wonder why
and you wonder why
(Verse 1)
Never imagined that you'd be here again
Yet another season of doubt has set in
The warm September rains have gone, gone away
The trust that you held in you heart isn't there
Now you're fighting you fears but they never fight fair
Gone are all the endless summer days
(Chorus)
I believe that they're still there
Though the storms will surely come
So let me ask you can you look to sky
And strain to see the sun again
(Verse 2)
You harbor the hurt and you shelter the pain
Too proud to ever confess fallen again
But don't you long for mercy's tender embrace
Remember the words you spoke from you heart
Its a pity those phrases have fallen apart
Gone is every promise that you made
(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
Will you keep fooling yourself
How long will you run till you're gasping for air
You ran when then shadows grew long
You though the sun fell from the sky
But I tell you you're wrong
(Repeat Chorus)
(Verse 1)
Love will always stay
Somewhere in your heart
And hope will never fade
Though at times it will be hard
But lift your head anyway
God's Son is returning
He's bringing brighter days
(Chorus)
So wait for the Sun to come out again
Storms always come but they blow away with the wind
So wait for the Son is coming again
Winds of trial blow hard
So we've got ot hang on
Hang on to Him
(Verse 2)
Where's the joy you've known
It seems you can't remember
All the fire in your life
Has turned to cold December
But lift your head anyhow
He's won greater battles before
What makes you think He won't fight now
(Repeat Chorus x2)
(Ending)
Let the sun shine
Let the sun shine in
The sun shine in
(Repeat Ending x5)
nothing I could say
would matter anyway
just a vain display with me in the middle
no more empty words will anymore be heard
all my rhymes and verbs mean very little
like whispers thrown against the wind
like empty phrases caving in
it doesn't mean anything without you
just a nice melody without you
without your spirit to sing
of the hope and the joy that you bring
without you it doesn't mean anything
nothing i'll ever do
could ever hold a candle to
the love displayed when you said you forgave me
and what i know of love
is that i'm not deserivng of
one you call your son
once sent to save me
like love holding the hand of hate you choose to love me anyway
it doesn't mean anything wihtout you
just words that i say without you
without your spirit to sing
of this change of the heart that you bring
without you it doesn't mean anything
it doesn't mean anything without you
just a nice melody wihtout you
without your spirit to sing
of the hope and the joy that you bring
without you it doens't mean anything
it doesn't mean anything without you
just words that i say without you
without your spirit to sing
of this change of the heart that you bring
without you it doens't mean anything
We're on our space race to the sky
I follow you
On our space race up so high
It feels so true

Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
We're on our space race to the sky

When we touch the sky
We start our silver spaceships
We hear the countdown call
It feels like we can make it
There's no need to tumble and fall
The universe is waiting
I feel it in my heart
My ship is still vibrating
And we count til zero to start
We're on our space race to the sky
I follow you
On our space race up so high
It feels so true
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
It's just you and I
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
When we touch the sky
It's time to make a u-turn
It's such a spacy ride
I'm feeling my machine burn
When we're racing up through the night
I'm watching our planet
Oh, it's so far away
From here it seems like magic
Blue and beautiful anyway
We're on our space race to the sky
I follow you
On our space race up so high
It feels so true
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
It's just you and I
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
When we touch the sky
We're on our space race to the sky
I follow you
On our space race up so high
It feels so true
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
It's just you and I
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
When we touch the sky
Dab Dadab Dab Dab Da
It's just you and I
