Third Day is a Grammy award-winning Christian rock band formed in Marietta, Georgia during the 1990s. The band was founded by lead singer Mac Powell, guitarist Mark Lee and former member Billy Wilkins. The other band members are bassist Tai Anderson and drummer David Carr. The band's name is a reference to the biblical account of Jesus' rising from the dead on the third day following his crucifixion. The band was inducted in the Georgia Music Hall of Fame on September 19, 2009.
In 1992, Mac Powell and Mark Lee were playing at Lee's church the same night that David Carr & Tai Anderson played with a band called Bullard Family Singers. Once introduced, the group took to each other quickly and Carr & Anderson were invited to join the band.
In 1993, while remaining in school, the band started playing more aggressively around Atlanta and saved $3,000 to record a full-length album. Also, during this time, Wilkins, who was working full-time as a school teacher, decided to leave the band. Third Day continued to work on their album, recording at Furies Studios in Atlanta. With the production help of Carr, Long Time Forgotten was finally released in 1994 with 2,000 copies available. In 1995, the band started looking for a second guitarist and after hearing Brad Avery play with singer Chris Carder, Avery was asked to audition with the band. After playing Consuming Fire during their first rehearsal, Avery was officially asked to join the band.
Brandon Heath Knell is a contemporary Christian musician from Nashville, Tennessee. He has released three studio albums: Don't Get Comfortable (2006), What If We (2008) and "Leaving Eden" (2011). He is best known for the No. 1 "I'm Not Who I Was" and "Give Me Your Eyes". He was nominated four times at the Dove Awards of 2008 and won in the "New Artist of the Year" category. His second album was nominated for "Gospel Album of the Year" at the 51st Grammy Awards of 2009.
Heath began his career by writing songs as a teenager. His first independently released album, Early Stuff (2004), was a compilation of his earlier songwriting. Also after releasing Soldier in 2004, he signed with Reunion Records to release his first main studio album, Don't Get Comfortable, in late 2006. The album's first single, "Our God Reigns", received a Dove Award nomination in 2007. Heath's song "I'm Not Who I Was" became No. 1 single, staying on top of Billboard's Hot Christian Songs chart for several weeks. It received two Dove nominations, including "Song of the Year". Heath returned in mid-2008 with a second project: What If We. The album's first single "Give Me Your Eyes" was released in July 2008 and ended the year as the second most-played song on R&R magazine's Christian CHR chart for 2008. The song received two GMA Dove Awards in 2009: "Song of the Year" and "Pop/Contemporary Song of the Year".
You are so good to me
You heal my broken heart
You are my Father in heaven [2x]
You ride upon the clouds
You lead me to the truth
You are the Spirit inside me [2x]
You poured out all your blood
You died upon the cross
You are my Jesus who loves me [2x]
[Chorus:]
You are beautiful my sweet, sweet, song [3x]
I will sing again
[Bridge:]
You are my strong melody
You are my dancing rhythm
You are my perfect rhyme
And I want to sing forever
When the rain comes it seems that everyone has gone away
When the night falls you wonder if you shouldn't find someplace
To run and hide, escape the pain
But hiding's such a lonely thing to do
But I can't stop the rain from falling down on you again
But I can't stop the rain but I will hold you 'til it goes away
When the rain comes you blame it on the things that you have done
When the storm fades you know that rain must fall on everyone
So rest awhile it'll be alright
No one loves you like I do
I can't stop the rain from falling down on you again
I can't stop the rain but I will hold you
But I can't stop the rain from falling down on you again
But I can't stop the rain but I will hold you 'til it goes away
Rich young man, you think you can
Make it through the world on the things you've got
I'll tell you, I know it's true
You can't get to heaven on things you've bought
They're going to leave you
They're going to fade away
What good is it a man
to gain the whole world
And forfeit his soul
What good is it a man
To gain the whole world
And forfeit his soul
Poor old soul, he got more
Than the kings of a thousand countries
What he owns ain't silver or gold
This boy is bound for glory
He's going to leave us
He's going to fly away
I am a thief, I am a murderer
Walking up this lonely hill
What have I done? I don't remember
No one knows just how I feel
and I know that my time is coming soon.
It's been so long. Oh, such a long time
Since I've lived with peace and rest
Now I am here, my destination
guess things work for the best
and I know that my time is coming soon
Who is this man? This man beside me
They call the King of the Jews
They don't believe that He's the Messiah
But, somehow I know it's true.
And they laugh at Him in mockery,
and beat Him till he bleeds
They nail Him to the rugged cross,
and raise Him, they raise Him up next to me
My time has come, I'm slowly fading
I deserve what I receive
Jesus when You are in Your kingdom
Could You please remember me
and He looks at me still holding on
the tears fall from His eyes
He says I tell the truth
Today, you will live with Me in paradise
and I know that my time is coming soon
and I know paradise is coming soon
We praise You oh Lord for the love that You give
And the time that You spent on this world for our sins
We lift up Your name in honor and praise
In Jesus we place all our love and our faith
Chorus:
And we know that You are the Savior
And we know that You are the Son
And we know that You are the Savior of everyone
The time now is near when You will appear
When we see Your face and Your voice will appear
And then we will sing to Jesus the King
The Maker, Creator of everything
(Chorus)
(Verse 1)
The voice of an angel
I cannot tell
Light or darkness
Heaven or hell
The smile of a believer, wedged and bound
Friend or deceiver
The truth or a lie
She sings in riddles
She sings in rhymes
Saying everything and nothing at the same time
Still there's something that blows my mind
She sings in riddles
She sings in rhymes
Words of a poet in perfect time
With questions and answers
In every verse, every line
I smile and I wonder
Is there a song?
I've not yet decided if it's right or it's wrong
She sings in riddles
She sings in rhymes
Saying everything and nothing at the same time
Still there's something that blows my mind
She sings in riddles
She sings in rhymes
To you, O Lord, I life my soul
In you, O God, I place my trust
Do not let me be upt to shame
Nor let my enemies triumph over me
My hope is you
Show moe your ways
Guide me in truth
In all my days
My hope is you
I am, O Lord, filled with your love
You are, O God, my salvation
Guard my life and rescue me
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul
In you, O God, I place my trust
Do not let me be put to shame
Nor let my enemies triumph over me
My hope is you
Show me your ways
Guide me in Truth
In all my days
My hope is you
I am, O Lord, filled with your love
You are, O God, my salvation
Guard my life and rescue me
My broken spirit shouts
My mended heart cries out...
Movin' On Up
Well I was blind
But now I can see
You made a believer
Out of me
Well I was blind
Now I can see
You made a believer
Out of me
(Chorus)
And I'm movin' on up now
I'm gettin' out of the darkness
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
Well I was lost
But now I am found
I believe in you
I've got no doubts
Well I was lost
But now I am found
I believe in you
I've got no doubts
(Chorus)
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
I'm getting out of darkness
My light shines on
You said all that follow You may find
Comfort and pain, blessings in hard times
Were I to leave, where else would I go?
The words of life and of truth You hold
All I want is love
I confess to this
I will take it, Lord
All you have to give
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of Earth
Will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace
And You give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
All I want is love
And I confess to this
I will take it, Lord
All You have to give
All You have to give
All You have
All You have to give
Your love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness stretches to the sky
And Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows like the ocean's tides
And I wil lift my voice
To worship You, my king
And I will find my strength in the shadow of Your wings.
Sometimes the night starts closing in
And I've lost my way home again
I'm running out of places I can turn
Enemies on every side
Not a friend around for miles
That's the time it really starts to hurt
Beat me up and drag me down
I'll never be afraid
I will hold my head high
Lift my hands to the sky
Rise above all who try to bring me down
I will hold my head high
I know you said it'd be okay
Sometimes I question just the same
I wonder if my problems are too small
Then I look back and realize
All your pain and sacrifice
Oh and how you suffered for us all
Beat me up and drag me down
I'll never be afraid
Beat me up and drag me down
And lock me in or keep me out
Whatever they may throw at me
I'll turn into a song for you
Words by Mac Powell & Music by Third Day
From the recording: Southern Tracks, Track #1.
Well I've been taking
It all for granted
Everything that I, have been givin'
Now it is the day, to start my mission
It's been a long time a comin'
There are many, searching for answers
Tell me who am I, to keep it to myself?
I've grown weary of my own fears
It's been a long time a comin'
Chorus:
Well I've been running just like an outlaw
And I am willing and able
To give you something that you can believe on
It's been a long time a comin'
True believers,
Have been staring, up into the sky
Waiting for your return
And I know one day
The clouds will roll down
It's been a long time comin'
Lyrics & Music by Mac Powell
From the recording: Third Day, Track #10.
Sometimes things don't work out quite the way
that you wanted them to
Sometimes people don't do all the things
that you wanted them to
There are time when
the answers aren't easy to see
Sometimes we're on a road
going back to a place we never wanted to be
Chorus:
Well that's alright
I'm just fine. Done made up my mind
that I'm livin for Jesus
When I'm alone and feeling down
Now, down so deep in my heart
I turn to Jesus and ask Him
for a brand new start
He's the reason for my life
being something better and new
And now I've finally found a love
that is proven tried and true
Repeat chorus
I don't know how to explain it
But I know that words will hardly do
Miracles with signs and wonders
Aren't enough for me to prove to you
Don't you know I've always loved you
Even before there was time
Though you turn away
I'll tell you still
Don't you know I've always loved you
And I always will
Greater love has not a man
Than the one who gives his life to prove
That he would do anything
And that's what I'm going to do for you
I can feel it in the air, I can feel it in this place
and I hope that he never leaves
I'm now without a care. It is something I can't explain
And I feel so free
Chorus:
Holy Spirit, we cry to you
Holy Spirit, in this place
Holy Spirit, give us comfort
Come down on us like a flame
Read about him in the Bible. He was in the men of God
And though I don't deserve it, He is in me
You can feel a new revival. Ask Jesus in your heart.
And you'll feel so free....
(Chorus)
Bridge:
You've got to fell it, oh to believe it
You've got to see it, won't you recieve it
Why don't you believe in....
I've got my doubts and I've got my questions
It's nothing new 'cause I've seen them before
I've had my share of false revelations
It always seems they're knockin' on my door
You said that I should see the light
But sometimes faith is blind
How do you know, how do you know
What I'm suppose to be doing
Why do you go, why do you go on
Thinking you know my fate
So many times I've lost my step
But never lost my way
How do you know, how do you know
When I don't know myself
You're thinking that you've got all the answers
You've got my situation figured out
But you're only seeing part of the picture
There's so much more that you don't know about
And here you come to speak your mind
But I'll say one more time
Give me something that I can believe and then I'll
Share it with the world for everyone to see
Take away the darkness, all the pain and sadness
I know it's you that put this light inside of me
I believe in a faith that's strong
I believe in a hope that carries on
I believe in these things and more
Most of all, most of all
I believe in love
And if I had the strength to move a mountain
Would you be amazed by all of my abilities
I guess it would not mean much if I didn't have love
And this is what I really want you all to see
I believe in a faith that's strong
I believe in a hope that carries on
I believe in these things and more
Most of all, most of all
I believe in love, I believe in love
I believe in love, I believe in love
I believe in a faith that's strong
I believe in a hope that carries on
I believe in these things and more
I believe in a faith that's strong
I believe in a hope that carries on
I believe in these things and more
Most of all, most of all
I believe in love, I believe in love
How's your head? I'm so sorry
That I can't do anything about it
LIke I said, I 'll be praying
Sorry I had to go away
Here without you I feel helpless
Tomorrow's just another day
How's your day? Do you miss me?
without you here, I'll have to say
Right now I've only a minute
Called to say, I'm so sorry
Hold on to love
And once I agian I feel helpless
God forbid we'd be apart
How close or shall I ask how far
Look inside, the autumn leaves are falling
Deep inside you hear the road is calling
And I know you want to walk away
And leave it all behind
You're running from nothing
Chasing lies can find you tired and jaded
And in your world the colors have all faded
If you think that you can find a place
To get away from the pain
You're looking for nothing
I hate to see you leave without a fight
Time will open doors for you
Wishes spent make dreams come true
I promise I'll be there
Don't say goodbye
Take my hand, let's walk a while together
Holding hands won't make love last forever
But I know you probably need someone
To help you work it out
You've gotta do something
So you think you had me
Had me in your sights
I've got news for you
I'm working over time
To get away from slander
To stay away from lies
I won't listen to you criticize
Chorus:
Get on, get on get away from me
If you're trying to bring me down
If you're trying to bring me down
Get on, get on get away from me
If you're trying to bring me down
If you're trying to bring me down
I've been doin some thinking
And I think you're wrong
For trying to put down
What I've been working on
So if you want to break me
You better stay away
I won't listen, no
I won't listen to you today
Excuse me if i still question
Carefully all of your intentions
I've decided that I won't listen
Because your words only bring division
There was a time in your life
When you wanted the pain to leave
There were tears in your eyes
You were down on your knees
Asking forgiveness. Said you'd do anything
But, did ya mean it?
Chorus
And I know you know the difference
Between a promise and a lie
And I know you know the difference
Between what is wrong and right
I know you said you gave it all to Jesu Christ
You said that someday. Said you'd do anything
But, did ya mean it?
There was a time in your life
When you were so afraid
Nothing could go right
You got on your knees and prayed
You said that someday. You would do anything
But, did ya mean it?
Now the time has come to make yor promise true
But you sit around after all He's done for you
You need forgiveness, you don't do anything
You didn't mean it
You've been hiding now for so long
Never understanding why
Running far away from the truth
And all along chasing after lies
I have loved you from the beginning
Long before you knew my name
Even though you've broken my heart
I'll love you just the same
I'll love you anyway
Never mind your worries
Never mind your fears
They can only take you far from me
When you feel there's nowhere
Left for you to turn
Well, I got all you want
And everything you need
Come on back to me
Do you believe in second chances
Or in a love that never fades
Put your faith in what you can't see
Just put your hand in mine
And I'll show you the way
No, I didn't see this one coming
It suddenly snuck up on me
I can't say you didn't tell me so
I can't say you didn't warn me
I can't take the pain of knowing that I left You
I can't bear the shame of knowing I was wrong
But I'll take the blame for everything that I've done
I can't take the pain of leaving you alone
Of leaving you alone
I was there when they accused you
but I guess I was too afraid
Not just once and not just twice
But three times I denied your name
I never thought I'd get even a second chance
But you've given that and so much more
And then for every time I ever did deny
You ask me if I love you, You know I do, Lord
So I'm off to follow in your steps
it won't be easy, it's safe to say
There are only tow roads I can walk on down
The road less traveled is the one you paved
Lord, You took the pain even though I left You
And You took the shame and You made it all Your own
Why'd you take the blame for everything that I've done?
Lord, You took the pain
You and You alone, You and You alone
I'm what you're looking for
No need to search anymore
I'm in need of your saving
You can give me hope
Rescue my wretched soul
You are the one
I am praying
I am just like the alien
the fatherless and the widow
Keep your watch over me
Sustain the life in me
Frustrate the ways of every wicked man
Let me inside your home
Father defend my cause
Plead for my case and innocence
Just like the alien
I'm a stranger in a strange land
Just like the Fatherless
I'm in need of someone to take my hand
Just like the widow
I need you right now to understand

Ever since the world around you shattered
You've been looking everywhere for something more
Sometimes you feel like your life doesn't matter
But it does
I tell you it does
Come on let me love you now
Come on let me love you and hold you through the storms
I will keep you safe and warm
Come on let me love you now
Come on let me love you and kiss away your tears
I will always be here
Come on let me love you
Yesterday you found your heart was broken
Tomorrow doesn't leave much room for hope
Today you'll find that my arms are wide open
And my heart
My heart is full of love
Give up on all the other things
'Cause my love can bring you more
And if you take a chance on me
I'll give you what you're looking for
Whisper softly to me
Share with me your heart
And just ignore the world and what it does
I know that you've been hurting, you've been torn apart
And I pull you close and hold you in my arms
If you give love
I'll return the love and you will see
So much more than you gave away
If you give love
Give it to me
Listen very closely as I sing this song
And please believe that I mean every word
When I say I love you
I mean it with all my heart
Let it be the best thing that you've ever heard
Whisper softly to me
Share with me your heart
Thought that I was all alone
Broken and afraid
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me
And I didn't even know
That I had lost my way
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me
'Til You opened up my eyes
I never knew
That I couldn't ever make it
Without You
Even though the journey's long
And I know the road is hard
Well, the One who's gone before me
He will help me carry on
After all that I've been through
Now I realize the truth
That I must go through the valley
To stand upon the mountain of God
As I travel on the road
That You have lead me down
You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I have need for nothing more
Oh, now that I have found
That You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I confess from time to time
I lose my way
But You are always there
To bring me back again
Sometimes I think of where it is I've come from
And the things I've left behind
But of all I've had, what I possessed
Nothing can quite compare
With what's in front of me
With what's in front of me
Did you think you were immune to this
Did you think you could escape without infection
You do all you're able to resist
Just to avoid the danger of rejection
Memory warns you of the past
When it all went wrong
When you think your life is shattered
And there's no way to be fixed again
Love heals your heart
At a time you least expected
You're alive like you have never been
Love heals your heart
Everybody has a wall to climb
That was built to guard the pain that holds them captive
Every smile that they would hide behind
Will try to mask the hurt beneath the surface
Sometimes it's hard to understand
How we're trapped inside
It doesn't take much
For my heart to break
And you have done it
For what's seems the millionth time
Whenever I hear
Of your saving grace
And how you gave your life
In exchange for mine
Sometimes I wonder why you even love me
And why you ever chose to call me child
Then I remember
It's by your sacrifice
I can say that
I am yours and you are mine
It doesn't take much
For me to shed a tear
And you have done so many things
To make me cry
Whenever I think
Of all that I've done wrong
And everything that you have done
To make it right
It doesn't take much
For my heart to break
And you have done it
For what's seems the millionth time
[Verse:]
I want to sing a song for You, Lord
Lord, for You I want to sing a song
And I want to lift my voice to Heaven
And listen to the angels sing along
[chorus:]
A song of Your faithfulness
A song of Your grace
And of Your loving kindness
To the glory of Your name
With everything that's in me, Lord
Listen to me say
I want to sing a song for You
I want to sing a song
I want to live my life for You, Lord
Lord, for You I want to live my life
And I want to praise the name of Jesus
And Pray above all things You're glorified
[chorus]
And I sing about Your mercy
And I sing about Your love
Your goodness, Lord
Your righteousness
I want to sing...
[chorus]
And we'll sing holy, holy, holy
We'll sing holy, holy, holy
We'll shout holy, holy
Are You Lord almighty
[repeat and fade out]
You said all that follow You may find
Comfort and pain, blessings in hard times
Were I to leave, where else would I go?
The words of life and of truth You hold
All I want is love
I confess to this
I will take it, Lord
ALl you have to give
Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of Earth
Will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace
And You give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
All I want is love
And I confess to this
I will take it, Lord
All You have to give
All You have to give
All You have
All You have to give
Your love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness stretches to the sky
And YOur righteousness is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows like the ocean's tides
And I wil lift my voice
To woship You, my king
Lord of all creation
of water earth and sky
The heaveans are your Tabernacle
Glory to the Lord on high
[Chorus:]
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are Holy, Holy
The universe declares your Majesty
And you are holy holy
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Lord of Heaven and Earth
Early in the morning
I will celebrate the light
When i stumble in the darkness
I will call your name by night
[Chorus]
lord of heaven and earth
lord of heaven and earth
Hallelujah to the lord of heaven and earth [repeat 3 times]
holy......holy....holy god.....
[Chorus]
Precious lord reveal your heart to me....
Father holy..
[backround]...Lord god almighty...
The universe declares your majesty
You are holy, holy, holy, holy,
Hallelujah to the lord of heaven and earth [6x]
What kind of song do you want to sing for me?
Is it slow or is it rock and roll?
What kind of day do you want to bring to me?
Rain or shine, I would be just fine
'Cause I've got everything I need
I got everything
I got everything
I got you and you're putting it all together
And it doesn't get any better as far as I can tell
I got you right now and ever after
And it doesn't even really matter
That I've got nothing else
'Cause I got you
Where do I go when I want to know the truth?
It isn't me, well it's only you
When will I know what you have for me to do?
Is it now or is it coming soon?
Be it pleasure or be it pain
I'm ready for whatever life may bring
'Cause I know that in the end
Everything works together
For the good of those who love Him
I See Love
Some see a teacher
Standing on a hill
Speaking words of wisdom
Some see a healer
Reaching out his hand
To give sight to a blind man
Some see a dreamer
Wasting his life
On what can never be
Some see a fool
Dying for his dreams
But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love
Some see a prisoner
Alone before his judge
With no one to defend him
Some see a victim
Beaten and abused
With all the world against him
Some see a martyr
Carrying his cross
For what he believes
Some see a hero
Who set his people free
But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
With your last breath
I see love
Through your death
I see love
I see peace in the eyes of the king
I see hope in your suffering (I see love)
I see a calm in the center of the storm
I see a Saviour
I see love
I see love
Light of heaven breaking through (heaven breaking through)
I see grace
I see God's face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love
When I see you
I see heaven breaking through
See Gods face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
I see love
I see love
When I see
Some see Him walking from an empty grave
Carry Me Home
My heart is aching
My bones are tired
And I can't believe
I've fallen down this far
My back is breaking
My mouth is dry
I pray you'll come
And rescue me tonight
Too many days I've gone through the valley
Too many nights I've fallen down
Every time I blindly stumble
You pick me off the ground
And carry me home
My will is crumbling
On every side
I know you haven't
Left me here to die
My life is shaking
And trembling whooa
I'm praying that you'll come
And cover me
Too many days I've gone through the valley
Too many nights I've fallen down
Every time I blindly stumble
you pick me off the ground
And carry me home
My heart is like a stone
But you can break it open...
My will is broken
Your will be done
I'll follow you no matter what may come
Too many days I've gone through the valley
Too many nights I've fallen down
Every time I blindly stumble
You pick me off the ground...
To you, O Lord, I lift my soul
In you, O God, I place my trust
Do not let me be put to shame
Nor let my enemies triumph over me
My hope is you
Show me your ways
Guide me in Truth
In all my days
My hope is you
I am, O Lord, filled with your love
You are, O God, my salvation
Guard my life and rescue me
My broken spirit shouts
My mended heart cries out...
Alleluia, Alleluia
For our Lord God Almighty reigns
Alleluia, Alleluia
For our Lord God Almighty reigns
Holy, Holy
Are You Lord God Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb
Worthy is the Lamb
You are Holy
Holy
Are You Lord God Almighty
Worthy Is the Lamb
Worthy Is the Lamb
Amen
Holy, You are holy
King of kings, Lord of lords
You are holy
Holy, you are holy King of kings, Lord of lords
I worship you
Your love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness stretches to the sky
Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows like the ocean's tide
I will lift my voice
To worship You, my King
I will find my strength
In the shadow of your wings
In this place Saw her face
He was more than happier
Made for Him It's a sin
That she was not faithful
She couldn't be
Foolishly More unfaithful if she tried
He did not care
Wanted her Despite lies and wandering eyes
He deserves the very best
But he loves her none the less
She's forgotten her first love
(Maybe one day she'll return)
He's forgotten that she ever went away
and broke his heart
Lavished on Silver, gold,
and anything she needed
Wasted thoughts Broken hearts
Love was not acknowledged
God only knows
That He has shown her
More love than she deserves
There will come a time
When she will find
That he's not there To give her love
And He'll be gone away From her forever
Like the rain that falls to the earth below
Watering the seed to grow
And so it is with Your precious word, oh Lord
It won't return until I know that
You're everywhere
You're everywhere
Like the wind that blows no one really knows
From where it comes or where it goes
And so it is with Your holy spirit Lord
Falling down on us to show that
You're everywhere
Like the rain that's falling
You're everywhere
Like the wind that's blowing
You're everywhere
Like the sun that's on my face
I feel the warmth in Your embrace
Your are everywhere
My Lord, now I truly know
That I could never go from Your presence
My God, You are everywhere
From the lowest depths to the heavens
You're always there
Like the rain that's falling
Like the wind that's blowing
Like the sun that's on my face
I feel the warmth in Your embrace
Your are everywhere
Like the rain that's falling
Like the wind that's blowing
Like the sun that's on my face
I feel the warmth in Your embrace
Well, I need to be someone who's a lot like You
Easy to see that I sure need something new
Though I try to live life my way
I think it goes to prove
That I need to be someone who's like You
And I know that You want to change me
Wanna rearrange the way I feel inside
And I've heard that You take
The broken hearts of lonely souls
And You make all things right
Do You know who I am?
Have You seen the things I've done?
Do You know who I am?
Have You seen the things I've done?
The things I've done, oh yeah
Never before, no there's never been a time
That I would implore You to take what's Yours and mine
And to use it in the way You will
In any way You find
Never before did I realize
And I know that You want to change me
Wanna rearrange the way I feel inside
And I've heard that You take
The broken hearts of lonely souls
And You make all things right
But do You know who I am?
And have You seen the things I've done?
Do You know who I am?
And have You seen the things I've done?
Do You know who I am?
And have You seen the things I've done? Yeah
Do You know who I am?
And have You seen the things I've done? Yeah
But do You know
Do You know who I am?
Have You seen what I've done? Yeah
Do You know who I am?
And have You seen the things I've done?
The things I've done
The things I've done
Sin and shame
guilt and pain
pride and your conceit
here and now
lay them down
at the saviors feet
chorus
what have you got to lose
what have you got to lose
and tell me why you're so afraid
what have you got to lose
what have you got to lose
think of all you have to gain
hope and dreams
and all the things
that you have ever made
it don't mean much
if in the end
you hae lose your way
repeat chorus
let go of all you know
only then can life be found
surrender all you hold
lay it down, lay it down, lay it down
I won't pretend to know what you're thinking
I can't begin to know what you're going through
I won't deny the pain that you're feeling
But I'm gonna try and give a little hope to you
Just remember what I've told you
There's so much you're living for
There's a light at the end of this tunnel
There's a light at the end of this tunnel
For you, for you
There's a light at the end of this tunnel
Shinin' bright at the end of this tunnel
For you, for you
So keep holdin' on
You've got your disappointments and sorrows
You ought to share the weight of that load with me
Then you will find that the light of tomorrow
Brings a new life for your eyes to see
So remember what I've told you
How many times have I turned away?
The number is the same as the sand on the shore
But every time You've taken me back
And now, I pray You do it once more
Please, take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
To give it away to You
Please, take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
To give it away to You, Jesus
And how many times have I turned away?
The number is the same as the stars in the sky
But every time You've taken me back
And now, I pray You do it tonight
Please, take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
To give it away to You
Please, take from me my life
When I don't have the strength
To give it away to You, Jesus

I was tired of waiting
Playing all the games and
Living in a place that was not for me
So I thought it was time
For me to get what's mine
And to do it all, everything I dreamed
What I thought was the best of me turned to be
All the worst I could find
If I run to you
Will you hold me in your arms forevermore
If I run to you
Will you hold me in your arms forevermore
Now I got a feeling
That I've got to leave and
Find a way back to where I came from
Though I don't deserve it
I know it's unheard but
Living here without you, my life is done
I confess that I shouldn't have run from you
Now I know I was wrong
Nowhere to run to
And no one to turn to
I'm dying out here on my own
Long before I even thought of returning
Your arms are wide open
I?m ready for the winds to change
I?m ready for a brighter day
I?m ready for the sun to shine down on me
I?m waiting for a song to sing
I?m looking for a brand new thing
I?m ready now to live a life that I believe
I want the world to turn because of love
And mercy to find each of us
Doing what we can to just believe, yeah
I want the world to know that You?re the One
Who fills me up and gives me hope
And brings about this change that?s in me
Oh yeah, I?m ready, yeah
You know I?m ready now
I?m ready for the truth to be
Something that can set us free
Does anybody still believe we?ll make it through?
I?m ready now to take a stand
To live life for more than myself
Tell me now, my friend, are you ready, too
I want the world to turn because of love
And mercy to find each of us
Doing what we can to just believe, yeah
I want the world to know that You?re the One
Who fills me up and gives me hope
And brings about this change that?s in me
Oh yeah, I?m ready, yeah

It?s gonna take every single one of us doing what we can
There?s lots of fighting in this world but there?s so much loving too
So take my hand, I?m ready now for You
I want the world to turn because of love
And mercy to find each of us
Doing what we can to just believe, yeah
I want the world to know that You?re the One
Who fills me up and gives me hope
And brings about this change that?s in me
Oh yeah, I?m ready, yeah

You know I?m ready, oh yeah, yeah
I?m ready for the winds to change

What kind of King would leave His throne
In Heaven to make this earth His home?
While men seek fame and great renown
In lowliness our King comes down
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
A manger throne for God's own son
You left the sound of angels' praise
To come for men with unkind ways
And by this Baby's helplessness
The power of nations is laid to rest
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
A manger throne for God's own son
What kind of King would come so small
From glory to a humble stall?
That dirty manger is my heart too
I'll make it a royal throne for You
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
How we thank You that You've come
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
A manger throne for God's own son
(Jesus, Jesus, precious one)
Precious Jesus
(How we thank You that You've come)
Jesus, Jesus, precious one
A manger throne
(My heart is a throne)
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling
You have fallen so far now
You don't even know how, you are going to survive
(But) Just above the horizon
A new light is shining, breaking through the darkest night
Love is coming and it's calling out your name
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling your name
You feel like your life is fading
You're tired of waiting, for your moment to arrive
But tomorrow will bring a song that you can sing
And your hope is gonna rise
Love is coming and it's calling out your name
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling your name
Oh yeah...
Do you hear Him calling?
Can you hear Him calling?
He's calling out your name
He's calling out your name
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling
Lift up your face, lift up your face
Salvation is calling, salvation is calling your name
Can you hear Him calling?
Can you hear Him calling now?
Oh, can you hear Him calling you
He is calling you now
He is calling out your name
Just above the horizon
A new light is shining
I will always be true
No, I?ll never be leaving
I will be here with you
Through the storms and the seasons
Through the sun and the rain
Through the joy and the pain
I will know what to do
I will always be true
I will always be true
No, you never should doubt it
Once again I will prove
There is no way around it
Through the questions and tears
Everyday of the year
I will know what to do
I will always be true
If you will need a shoulder to cry on
I'm here every time
And when you need a hand to hold
I'll give you mine, oh, I'll give you mine
I will always be true
You can always believe it
And when my life is through
Well, I hope you will see Him
Everyday that I live
Every breath that I breathe
Yes, it all was for You
I will always be true
And if you will need a shoulder to cry on
I'm here every time
And when you need a hand to hold
I'll give you mine
And when you need a shoulder to cry on
I'm here every time
And when you need a hand to hold
I'll give you mine, yeah, I'll give you mine
I?ll always be true
The most beautiful night of the year
All the stars light up the sky
And the city is sparkling with silver and gold
From a million points of light
A reflection of something that?s deeper within
Just a flicker of something more
Jesus, Light of the world
Shine through the darkness, bright as the day
Jesus, Light of the world
Shine in our hearts, show us the way tonight
Who is this Child in a manger?
Kings bow down and angels sing
The Lord of the Universe
Has come here to save us, a precious offering
All the heavens above and the earth below
Are filled with the light of Your love
Jesus, Light of the world
Shine through the darkness, bright as the day
Jesus, Light of the world
Shine in our hearts, show us the way tonight
Jesus, Light of the world
Shine through the darkness, bright as the day

Shine in our hearts, show us the way tonight
Ohh, show us the way tonight
Praise to the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ
Our God and our King, to Him we will sing
In His great mercy, He has given us life
Now we can be called the children of God
Great is the Love that the Father has given us
He has delivered us
He has delivered us
Children of God, sing your song and rejoice
For the love that He has given us all
Children of God, by the blood of His Son
We have been redeemed and we can be called
Children of God
Children of God
A mystery is revealed to the universe
The Father above has proven His love
Now we are free from the judgment that we deserve
And so we are called the children of God
Great is the Love that the Father has given us
He has delivered us
He has delivered us
Children of God, sing your song and rejoice
For the love that He has given us all
Children of God, by the blood of His Son
We have been redeemed and we can be called
Children of God
Children of God
Children of God
Children of God
We are the saints
We are the children
We've been redeemed
We've been forgiven
We are the sons and daughters of our God
We are the saints
We are the children
We've been redeemed
We've been forgiven
Well, today I found myself
After searching all these years
And the man that I saw
He wasn?t at all who I thought he?d be
I was lost when You found me here
And I was broken beyond repair
Then You came along
And You sang Your song over me
It feels like I'm born again
It feels like I'm living
For the very first time
For the very first time in my life
Make a promise to me now
Reassure my heart somehow
That the love that I feel
Is so much more real than anything
I?ve a feeling in my soul
And I pray that I?m not wrong
That the life I have now
Is only the beginning
It feels like I'm born again
It feel like I'm living
For the very first time
For the very first time
It feels like I?m breathing
(It feels like I'm born again)
It feels like I'm moving
(It feels like I'm living)
For the very first time
(For the very first time)
For the very first time
(For the very first time)
I wasn?t looking for something that was more
Than what I had yesterday
Then You came to me and You gave to me
Life and a love that I never known, that I never felt before
It feels like I'm born again
(Feels like I'm born again)
It feel like I'm living
(It feel like I'm living)
For the very first time
(For the very first time)
I?m living for the first time
(For the very first time)
It feels like I?m breathing
(It feels like I'm born again)
It feels like I'm moving
(It feels like I'm living)
For the very first time
(For the very first time)
I?m living for the first time
(For the very first time)
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine
O, what a foretaste of glory divine
Heir of salvation, purchase of God
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
Perfect submission, all is at rest
I in my Savior am happy and blessed
Watching and waiting, looking above
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love
This is my story, this is my song
Praising my Savior all the day long
This is my story, this is my song
Away in a manger, no crib for a bed
The little Lord Jesus, lay down His sweet head
The stars in the sky, look down where He lay
The little Lord Jesus asleep on the hay
The cattle are lowing, the poor baby wakes
But little Lord Jesus, no crying He makes
I love Thee Lord Jesus, look down from the sky
And stay by my cradle till morning is nigh
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven to live with Thee there
Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay
Close by me forever and love me, I pray
Bless all the dear children in Thy tender care
And take us to Heaven to live with Thee there
I can't do anything
I can't do anything without You
But You can do everything
You can do everything You want
And I just can't believe
I can't believe that You would love me
And after everything
After everything I've done
Then I want to love You
Love You more than life itself
And I want to hold You
Even though You can't be held
Because You're so much more
Than anything I've ever known
Anything, anything
I'd give anything
I would give anything to hold You
I want to live for You
For You alone, I want to live
When I see Your face
I would do anything to know You
You gave everything
You gave all You have to give
Then I want to love You
Love You more than life itself
And I want to hold You
Even though You can't be held
Because You're so much more
Than anything I've ever known
Anything, anything, anything
Then I want to love You
Love You more than life itself
And I want to hold You
Even though You can't be held
Because You're so much more
Than anything I've ever known
Anything
Halle, Hallelujah!
Halle, Hallelujah!
Halle, Hallelujah!
Halle
I hate to be, to be the one
Who's given up
And feels that all our hope is gone
But what I thought was a miracle
Just turned into the same old
Problem that it was
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever goin' to change
Oh, it's a shame, yeah
Ever since I can recall
She has been so afraid
Of you losing it all
What do you want?
Do you even know?
And is it worth the pain
We all have to endure?
She longs for better days
She's always been afraid
It's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
I wonder if you're ever going to change
You left her without leaving
You hit her without swinging
You took away without givin' a thing
Except for pain and sorrow
I'm prayin' that tomorrow
That you will open up your eyes and see
Well, it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
That you are throwing your whole life away
And it's a shame, oh, it's a shame
And I wonder if you're ever going to change
Oh, it's a shame
Oh, it's a shame
We will change
It seemed like, I had run out of second chances
And they sentenced me to die
And I was just like a dead man walking
I was running out of time
But You came to me and opened my eyes
And You gave to me a brand new life
And I am innocent and I have been set free
And I no longer have chains around my feet
Well and no matter where I go or what they say
I am innocent
Many years have passed since the day that I met You
But Your words are still the same
And every time I find myself with joy or sadness
I am calling out Your name
'Cause You came to me and opened my eyes
You gave to me a brand new life
And I am innocent and I have been set free
And I no longer have chains around my feet
Well and no matter where I go or what they say
I am innocent
Oh, I am innocent
Oh, I am innocent
Oh yes, I am innocent
And I am innocent and I have been set free
And I no longer have chains around my feet
Well and no matter where I go or what they say
I am innocent
And I have been set free
And I no longer have chains around my feet
Well and no matter where I go or what they say
Who is this King of glory,
That pursues me with his love
And haunts me with each hearing
Of his softly spoken words
My conscience; a reminder, of forgiveness that I need,
Who is this King of glory,
Who offers it to me?
Who is the King of angels,
O blessed Prince of Peace?
Revealing things of Heaven,
And all it's mysteries.
My spitit's ever longing,
For His grace in which to stand.
Who is this King of glory,
Son of God, and Son of Man.
Chours:
His name is Jesus, precious Jesus,
The Lord Almight, King of my heart,
The King of glory.
Who is this King of glory,
With strength and majesty?
And wisdom beyond measure,
The gracious King of kings.
The Lord on Earth and Heaven,
The Creator of all things,
Who is this King of glory, He's everything to me.
(Chours)
The Lord on Earth and Heaven,
The Creator of all things.
He is the King of glory,
He's everything to me.
Sometimes things don't work out quite the way that you wanted them to
Sometimes people don't do all the things that you wanted them to, yeah
There are times when the answers aren't easy to see
Sometimes we're on a road going down to a place we never want to be
Well, that's alright
Well, I'm just fine
Done made up my mind
That I'm livin' for Jesus
When I'm alone and feeling down, now, down so deep in my heart
Well I turn to Jesus and ask Him to get me a brand new start
He's the reason for my life being something better and new
And now I've finally found a love that is proven tried and true, yeah
Well, that's alright
Well, I'm just fine
Done made up my mind
That I'm livin' for Jesus
I tell you, I'm alright
I'm doing just fine
Done made up my mind
That I'm livin' for Jesus
Well, that's alright
I'm doin' just fine
Done made up my mind
That I'm livin' for Jesus
I tell you, I'm alright
And I'm doin' just fine
Done made up my mind
That I'm livin' for Jesus
Well, I'm livin' for Jesus, yeah, yeah, yeah
In this place
Saw her face
Couldn't be more happier
Made for Him
It's a sin
That she was not faithful
She couldn't be
Foolishly
More unfaithful if she tried
He did not care
Wanted her
Despite lies and wandering eyes
He deserves the very best
But He loves her none the less
She's forgotten her first love
(Maybe one day she'll return)
He's forgotten that she ever
Went away and broke His heart
Lavished on
Silver, gold, anything she needed
Wasted thoughts
Broken hearts
Love was not acknowledged
God only knows
That He has shown her
More love than she deserves
There will come a time
When she will find
That He's not there
To give her love
And He'll be gone away
There must be something wrong with me
I won't stop taking chances
It's nothing to do with apathy
I can't take no for an answer
Give me a reason
Why do I do it?
Would you believe it
If I told you a lie?
Give me a reason
How could I do it?
The truth isn't easy
That much I can't deny
The question still remains the same
On who can I place all the blame?
The demons, devils of the world
Or is it only myself?
There is something definitely wrong
With all of us
It would take a miracle of God
To make things right
There is something wrong here
With all of us...
The answer lies in front of me
Confirmed by God's own Spirit
It's in the pages that I read
Well, I've tasted the fruit that was forbidden
I murdered the trust that you had given
And now I'm living in a place that's not my home
The pain in your heart made you regret
The moment we spoke, did you forget?
Will my transgressions bring us all to our sweet end?
Maybe I'm just being too hard on myself, I don't know
Or is it that your mercy is much more than I deserve, I deserve?
[Incomprehensible] more than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
More than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
Betrayed by more than just a kiss
I did much more, I must admit
Instead of letting it all end, you bring new hope
More than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
More than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
[Incomprehensible] more than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
[Incomprehensible] more than I deserve, yeah
(It's more than I deserve)
[Incomprehensible] more than I deserve, yeah
(More than I deserve)
More than I deserve
More than I deserve, yeah
More than I deserve
(More than I deserve)
More than I deserve, yeah
The first noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
In fields where they lay keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
They looked up and saw a star
Shining in the East beyond them far
And to the earth it gave a great light
And so it continued both day and night
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
Born is the King
The first noel, the angels did say
Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
Noel, noel, noel, noel
Born is the King of Israel
Though the treasures of
This life may fade
Your love endures, forever
They will pass away
Things that man has made
But Your love endures forever
No I can't explain, or even understand
Why You gave Your life, to save sinful man
But I know it's true, I've seen it myself
Your love endures forever
Though the seasons change
With the passing time
Your love endures forever
And the sun will fade
If just for the night
Your love endures forever
Though our pains and joys
Will come and go
Your love endures forever
Even in my fears
I will always know
I am a thief
I am a muderer, walking up this lonely hill
What have I done?
I don't remember, no one knows just how I feel
And I know that my time is comming soon
It's been so long
Oh, such a long time since I've lived with peace and rest
And now I am here
At my destination, I guess things work for the best
And I know that my time is comming soon
Who is this man?
This man beside me
That they call the "King of the Jews"
They don't believe he's the messiah
But somehow I know it's true
They laugh at him in mockery
And beat him till he bleeds
They nail him to the rugged cross and raise him,
Yeah they raise him up next to me
My time has come
I'm slowly fading
I deserve what I've recieved
Jesus when you are in your kingdom,
Could you please remember me
He looks at me still holding on and tears fall from his eyes
He says to me "You tell the truth, today you will live with me in paradise"
And I know that my time is comming soon
And I know that my time is comming soon
I don't know it it's necessarily
(The things you do)
Maybe the things you say
It's true you sing a pretty song indeed
(In a new way)
You've said some things to me
But I'm not sure if you really mean it
Do you realize what you ahve done?
Do you think we have a problem?
You make me dance, you make me cry, you make me laught
You make me shout, you make me smile, you make me mad
You make me sing, you make me think, you make me sad
You make me fall, you make me love, you make me mad
I don't see calling it a tragedy
(What you have done)
To do so would be wrong
And I think taking things too far
But I admit that in reality
(The truth be known)
I don't listen to words
But I know all of them by heart
Do you realize what you ahve done?
Turn on the spotlight, strike up the band
Everyone's looking my way
They came to see the excitement firsthand
Hear all that I've got to say
Oh, it makes me wonder What if I slip
Will they catch me or watch me fall?
I am walking on a wire, tiptoe in through the fire
Never looking down to see that
I am walking on a wire, the pressure's getting higher
But I don't look around
Everyone roots for the winner
The others well maybe next time
Time at the top only lasts fifteen minutes
They just leave you behind
Oh, it makes me wonder, what if I slip
Will they catch me or watch me fall?
I am walking on a wire, tiptoe in through the fire
Never looking down to see that
I am walking on a wire, pressure's getting higher
But I don't look around, it's so far to the ground
Will they catch me if I fall?
Will they catch me if I fall?
What if I slip
Will they catch me or watch me fall?
I am walking on a wire, tiptoe in through the fire
Never looking down to see that
Yeah I am walking on a wire, pressure's getting higher
I don't look around it's so far to the ground
Ruler of the universe, higher than the kings of earth
Long before the world began, everything was in Your hands
Your glory will forever stand
For You are the Lord and You are God above
Your love goes on and on
You are the Everlasting Father
You are the Everlasting
You are the Everlasting Light, oh yeah
Every knee shall bow before You
(Every knee shall bow)

All these things created for the glorifying of the Lord
We praise Your name forevermore
For You are the Lord and You are God above
Your love goes on and on
You are the Everlasting Father
You are the Everlasting
You are the Everlasting Light, oh yeah
Every knee shall bow before You
(Every knee shall bow)
Lord of Mercy we adore You

My heart cries out, my spirit shouts
I'll praise Your name forevermore
You are the Everlasting Father
You are the Everlasting
You are the Everlasting Light, oh yeah
Every knee shall bow before You
(Every knee shall bow)
Lord of Mercy we adore You
(We adore You now)
Vs 1. I caught a glimpse of your splendor
in the corner of my eye
the most beautiful thing I've ever seen
It was like a flash of lightning
reflected off the sky
and I know, I'll never be the same
Ch: show me Your Glory. Send down Your presence
I wanna see Your face. Show me Your glory. Majesty shines about You, I can't go on without You Lord.
Vs 2. When I climb down the mountain, and get back to my life, I won't settle for ordinary things.
I'm gonna follow You forever for all of my days
I won't rest 'till I see You again
I was blinded by the devil
Born already ruined
Stone-cold dead
As I stepped out of the womb
By His grace I have been touched
By His word I have been healed
By His hand I've been delivered
By His spirit I've been sealed
Now I'm saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Yes, I'm saved
By the blood of the Lamb
And I'm so glad
Yes, I'm so glad
Now I'm so glad
So glad
I want to thank you, Lord
I want to thank you, Lord
Thank you, Lord
Thank you, Lord
By His truth I can be upright
By His strength I do endure
By His power I've been lifted
By His love I am secure
He bought me with a price
Freed me from the pit
Full of emptiness and wrath
And the fire that burns in it
Now I've been saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Thank God, I've been saved
By the blood of the Lamb
And I'm so glad
Yes, I'm so glad
Now I'm so glad
So glad
I want to thank you, Lord
I just want to thank you, Lord
I want thank you, Lord
Thank you, Lord
Nobody to rescue me
Nobody was there
I was going down for the last time
By His mercy I've been spared
Not by words
But by faith in Him is [Incomprehensible]
For so long I've been hindered
For so long I've been stalled
Now I'm saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Thank God, I've been saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Yes, I'm saved
[Incomprehensible]
And I'm so glad
And I'm so glad
Oh Lord, I'm so glad
You know I'm so glad
I want to thank you, Lord
I just want to thank you, Lord
Thank you, Lord
Thank you, Lord
Saved
By the blood of the Lamb
I've been saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Thank God, I've been saved
By the blood of the Lamb
Thank God, I've been saved
Forever seems so distant
Much further than today
You turn around and in an instant
You find that you are just as far from yesterday
The day it feels like winter
The night it feels like stone
You turn around and you remember
When you’re surrounded
You can still feel so alone
But it’s in between the start and end
I find myself once again
Questioning this place
Calling out your name
San Angelo
What do you know
And tell me do you have something to say
Don’t get me wrong
But I miss my home
And it feels like I’m a million miles away
San Angelo
Why do I ask these questions
How come I have these doubts
Cause I find every situation
It always seems to have
It’s way of working out
But it’s in between the start and end
I find myself once again
Questioning this place
I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
Need the drive and the determination and lucky breaks
I wanna be a rock star, yeah, but I ain't got the face
Oh still I wanna be a rock star, but ain't got what it takes
Seeing my face up on the TV
Hearing my songs on the radio
People waiting all day in line to see me
Doing my pose for Rolling Stone
It's alright, yeah, it's alright, c'mon
I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
Need the drive and the determination and lucky breaks
I wanna be a rock star, yeah, but I ain't got the face
Oh still I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
Living lifestyles of the rich and famous
Turning all heads in the music scene
Flying in my own jet plane to Vegas
I'm riding in a big black limousine
It's alright, said, it's alright
I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
Need the drive and the determination and lucky breaks
I wanna be a rock star, yeah, but I ain't got the face
Oh still I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
No, I ain't got nothing, but to you I'm something
Something so much more
It's alright, it's alright
Yeah it's alright, it's alright
I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
Need the drive and the determination and the lucky breaks
I wanna be a rock star, yeah, but I ain't got the face
Yeah, still I wanna be a rock star, but I ain't got what it takes
You know I wanna be a rock star
But I ain't got what it takes
Oh I said, "I wanna be a rock star
Well hey Mama, take a look at me now
Things are going fine here in the big town
Hey Mama, if you could only see
All of my friends and how they love me
And I know, you said "I need Jesus"
But mama can't you see I'm doing fine
Oh yes I know, you said "I need Jesus"
But mama I ain't got the time, no I ain't got the time, well no, no
And hey mama, well it's been two long years
Since I have seen you, how are things you hear?
Hey mama, things they aren't the same

Yes I know, you say "I need Jesus"
But mama can't you see I'm doing fine

Well mama He is in my life, yes He is in my life, yeah, yeah
Yeah mama, Jesus save me
Yeah mama, yeah, yes
Yeah mama, Jesus save me
My life has led me down the road that's so uncertain
And now, I am left alone and I am broken
Trying to find my way
Trying to find the faith that's gone
This time I know that You are holding all the answers
And I'm tired of losing hope and taking chances
On roads that never seem
To be the ones that bring me home
Give me a revelation
Show me what to do
'Cause I've been trying
To find my way
I haven't got a clue
Tell me should I stay here
Or do I need to move?
Give me a revelation
I've got nothing without You
I've got nothing without You
My life has led me down this path that's ever winding
Through every twist and turn, I'm always finding
That I am lost again
Tell me when this road will ever end
Give me a revelation
Show me what to do
'Cause I've been trying
To find my way
I haven't got a clue
Tell me should I stay here
Or do I need to move?
Give me a revelation
I've got nothing without You
I've got nothing without
I don't know where I can turn
Tell me, when will I learn?
Won't You show me where I need to go?
Let me follow Your lead
I know that it's the only way that I can get back home
Give me a revelation
Show me what to do
'Cause I've been trying
To find my way
I haven't got a clue
Tell me should I stay here
Or do I need to move?
Give me a revelation
I've got nothing without You
I've got nothing without You
No, oh no, oh no
Oh, give me a revelation
Oh Lord, oh no
I've got nothing, now, without You
Peace like a river flows within me
Love like a waterfall pours on me
I'll never be alon, can't you see
Peace like a river flows on...
Hope is a fire burning in my soul
Life is eternal with you Lord
Who could ever ask for more
Peace like a river flows on...
..on, think of all I could have missed
..oh, I just can't get over this
Faith if a light shining down on me
Mercy is a wind blowing over me
The grace of God has set me free
Magnificent Holy Father
I stand in awe of all I see
Of all the things You have created
But still You choose to think of me
And who am I that You should suffer
Your very life to set me free
The only thing that I can give You
Is the life You gave to me
This is my offering, dear Lord
This is my offering to You, God
And I will give You my life
For it's all I have to give
Because You gave Your life for me
I stand before You at this altar
So many have given You more
I may not have much I can offer
Yet what I have is truly Yours
This is my offering, dear Lord
This is my offering to You, God
And I will give You my life
For it's all I have to give
Because You gave Your life for me
This is my offering
This is my offering, dear Lord
This is my offering to You, God
And I will give You my life
For it's all I have to give
Because You gave Your life for me
This is my offering to You, God
And I will give You my life
For it's all I have to give
Because You gave Your life for me
On and on and on..... she goes and where she stops no one really knows
Everybody's got a problem so it seems and she aint afraid of telling me
But if you can't say nothing good, don't say nothing at all
Well, on and on and on.... he goes now look who's the one playing the fool
Criticizing, tellin lies, and putting down; aint you got nothing better to do
But if you can't say nothing good don't say nothing at all
Chorus:
Cause I know that there are times in life
When we just can't keep it to ourselves
What you want is not to make it right
We've got to tame our tounge
Well, if you can't say nothing good don't say nothing at all
Well, on and on and on... we go playing the game that never ends
I think it's time we realized the broken heart is hard to mend
But if you can't say nothing good don't say nothing at all
(Chorus)
James 3:5-10
People get ready
For something like you've never seen
Open up your eyes
Open up you heart
Open up your arms
And let the Spirit of the Saviour set you free
You ain't seen nothing yet
All the rumors are true
I don't know about you
But I know that there's more to this
People, here it is
Just what we've all been waiting for
Open up your eyes
Open up your heart
Open up your arms
And let the Spirit of the Saviour set you free
You ain't seen nothing yet
All the rumors are true
I don't know about you
But I know that there's more to this
Oh no, it doesn't all end here
Don't think this is the end
I will tell you again
That I know there's more to this
There's more to life
Than being born and dying
There's more to life
Than simply growing old
If we are wise
We'll keep our eyes on Jesus
Or miss out on the very thing
There's a little girl trembling on a cold December morn
Cyin' for momma's arms
At an orphanage just outside a little China town
Where the forgotten are
But half a world away I hang
The stockings by the fire
And dream about the day
When I can finally call you mine
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
So tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in His arms
And tell you from my heart, I wish you a Merry Christmas
As I hang the tinsel on the tree and watch the twinkling lights
I'm warmed by the fire's glow
Outside the children tumble in a wonderland of white
And make angels in the snow
And half a world away you try
Your best to fight the tears
And hope that heaven's angels come
To carry you here
It's Christmas time again but you're not home
Your family is here and yet you're somewhere else alone
So tonight I pray that God will come and hold you in His arms
And tell you from my heart, I wish you a Merry Christmas
And Christmas is a time to celebrate the Holy Child
And we celebrate His perfect gift of love
He came to us to give His life and prepare a place for us
So we could have a home with Him above
It's Christmas time again and now you're home
Your family is here so you will never be alone
So tonight before you go to sleep, I'll hold you in my arms
And tell you from my heart and I'll tell you from my heart
I wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Good tidings we bring
To you and your kin
Good tidings for Christmas
And a Happy New Year
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
And a Happy New Year
Good tidings we bring
To you and your kin
Good tidings for Christmas
And a Happy New Year
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas
I've heard it said that a man would climb a mountain
Just to be with the one he loves
How many times has he broken that promise
It has never been done
Well I never climbed the highest mountain, but I walked the hill of Calvary
Just to be with you I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you I'd give everything
Oh I'd give my life away
And I've heard it said that a man would swim the ocean
Just to be with the one he loves
All of those dream are empty motion
It has never been done
Well I've never swam the deepest ocean, but I've walked upon the raging sea
Just to be with you I'd do anything
There's no price I would not pay
Just to be with you I would give everything
I would give my life away
And I know that you don't understand the fullness of my love
How I died upon the cross for your sins
And I know that you don't realize how much that I give you
And I promise I would do it all again
Just to be with you I've done everything
There's no price I did not pay
Just to be with you I gave everything
Yes I gave my life away
I gave my life away
I see a hand reaching out to help me
But I don't understand all of Your ways
But You are still the potter and I am just the clay
And though I know at times I am too proud
To reach for You, to help me out
And if I waited on myself to get it right
I would be waiting here forever, oh yeah
But Your grace is never going to change
And Your faith always will remain
And Your love is the same
Yesterday, today, and forever
And I see Your world looking for an answer
But I don't know what for
When will we realize that we're sinners
In the hands of a loving God who came
And died and wants to set us free
Oh, how He longs to be with you and me
And if we waited on the truth to change
Oh, Lord, we would be waiting here forever, oh yeah
But Your grace is never going to change
And Your faith always will remain
And Your love is the same
Yesterday, today, and forever, ooh wow, ooh wow
I see a hand reaching out to help me
But I don't understand all of Your ways
But You save me, I thank you Jesus
'Cause Your grace is never going to change
And Your faith always will remain
And Your love is the same
Yesterday, today, and forever, wow, yeah
But Your grace is never going to change
And Your faith always will remain
And Your love is the same
Yesterday, today, and forever, oh, yes
And Your love is the same
Yesterday, today, and forever
You need a place where you can find some shelter
Follow me there, follow me there
You want a hand to hold, someone that will help you
Follow me there, come on, follow me there
Where love like a rivier flows,
Peace like you've never known,
And joy never ending lives,
A place where faith can find
Hope that will never die,
Follow me there, come on, follow me there
You need a place to be your sanctuary
Follow me there, come on, Follow me there
Where you can lay down all those burdens you carry
Follow me there, come on, follow me there
Where the lost can find salvtion
And the lonely finds friend
Where the sinner finds forgiveness
Won't you follow me there
My pain and problems keep me chained
And my troubled heart makes me weak
I'll wait for You to comfort me
And in You I know I'll find my strength
I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly high above this world
And I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly, I will learn to fly high above this world
Oh yeah
I tremble with this heavy weight
And I'm buried underneath my grief
I'll run to You and not grow faint
And I'll lay my burdens at Your feet
I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly high above this world
And I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly, I will learn to fly high above this world
I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly high above this world
And I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly, I will learn to fly high above this world
I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly high above this world
And I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly, I will learn to fly high above this world
I will soar on the wings of eagles
I will learn to fly high above this world
And I will soar on the wings of eagles
This world just keeps on getting crazier and crazier everyday
You're so afraid
Sometimes it feels like it's chasing your sanity away
And you start to break
Let me help you find your way
Don't give up faith
Don't give up hope
There's always something better
Waiting around the corner
Don't give up now
Please, don't let go
What can feel like the ending
Could just be the beginning
Don't give up hope
Your life is spinning like a rocket that's gone out of control
And you've let go
You're slowly losing your confidence, you're a wounded soul
But I hope you know
I can help you find your way
Don't give up faith
Don't give up hope
There's always something better
Waiting around the corner
Don't give up now
Please, don't let go
What can seem like the ending
Could just be the beginning
Don't give up hope
Don't give up hope now
Don't turn around
Keep on moving
Find your faith
You'll be doing all right now
Don't look back
Keep on moving
Find your faith
And you'll be doing all right now
Don't look back
Keep on moving
Find your faith
And you'll be doing all right now
Don't give up faith
Don't give up hope
There's always something better
Waiting around the corner
Don't give up now
Please, don't let go
What can seem like the ending
Could just be the beginning
To everyone who's lost someone they love
Long before it was their time
You feel like the days you had were not enough
When you said goodbye
And to all of the people with burdens and pains
Keepin' you back from your life
You believe that there's nothing
And there is no one who can make it right
There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus
For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on
Have lost all of their faith in love
And they've done all they can to make it right again
Still it's not enough
For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains
You try to give up but you come back again
Just remember that you're not alone
In your shame and your suffering
There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus
When you're lonely
And it feels like the whole world is falling on you
You just reach out
You just cry out to Jesus
Cry to Jesus
To the widow who suffers from being alone
Wipin' the tears from her eyes
For the children around the world without a home
Say a prayer tonight
There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
That meets you wherever you are
There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
That meets you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it, I believe
I believe in God the Father, Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
He was conceived by the Holy Spirit born of the Virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius Pilate, He was crucified and dead and buried
I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
I believe that He who suffered, was crucified, buried, and dead
He descended into hell and on the third day, He rose again
He ascended into Heaven where He sits at God's mighty right hand
I believe that He's returning
To judge the quick and the dead of the sons of men
I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
Well I believe, I believe it
Oh sure I believe it
Yes, I believe it
Oh, I believe it
I believe in God the Father, Almighty Maker of Heaven and Maker of Earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten Son, our Lord
I believe in the Holy Spirit, one Holy Church, the communion of Saints
The forgiveness of sin
I believe in the resurrection, I believe in a life the never ends
And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
No I did not make it, no it is making me
No I did not make it, no it is making me
No I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man
And I believe it, I believe it
I believe, I believe it
Oh I said, I believe it
Oh the man do you believe it
Do you believe it, do you believe it
Verse 1
Set this place on fire
Send your spirit Saviour
Rescue from the mire
Show your servant favor
Chorus
Yesterday was the day that I was alone
Now I'm in the prescence of almighty God
Yes our God, he is a consuming fire
The flames burn down deep in our soul
Yes our God, he is a consuming fire
He reaches inside and melts down this cold heart of stone
(Verse 1)
(Chorus)
Did you realize that inside you is a flame
Did you ever try to let it burn, let it burn, let it burn
This is the Body and this is the Blood
Broken and poured out for all of us
And in this communion we share in His love
This is the Body and this is the Blood
Well, I will remember everything, Lord
That You've done for me, I won't take for granted
The sacrifice that set me free, well I hunger
And thirst for Your love, come fill me today
This is the Body and this is the Blood
Broken and poured out for all of us
And in this communion we share in His love
This is the Body and this is the Blood
We hunger and thirst for Your love
And Your righteousness
We long for Your presence here, Lord
Be with us again
This is the Body and this is the Blood
Broken and poured out for all of us
And in this communion we share in His love
This is the body, yeah this is the blood
This is the body and this is the blood
Broken and poured out for all of us
And in this communion we share in His love
This is the Body, yeah and this is the Blood
This is the Body, this is the Blood
It's been so long since
You felt like you were loved
So what went wrong
But do you know
There's a place where you belong
Here in My Arms
Chorus:
When you feel like you're alone in your sadness
It seems like no one else in this whole world cares
And you want to get away from the madness
You just call My name and I'll be there
You just call My name and I'll be there
The pain inside
Has erased your hope for love
Soon you will find
That I'll give you all
That your heart could ever want
And so much more
Chorus:
When you feel like you're alone in your sadness
It seems like no one else in this whole world cares
And you want to get away from the madness
You just call My name and I'll be there
You just call My name and I'll be there
You just call My name
You just call My name
Call My name say it now
I want you to never doubt
The love I have for you is so alive
Call My name say it now
I want you to never doubt
The love I have for you is so alive
You just call My name
You just call My name
You just call My name
The love I have for you is so alive
The love I have for you is so alive
You just call My name
You just call My name
Each and every single day
I was throwing life away with questions
Searching for a better way
Always looking in the wrong direction
But my heart I could not trust
'Cause it lies to me too much
And my mind just couldn't
Understand it all
How could I've been so blind and not see You?
The more that I look the more I find You've led me to the truth
That I am nothing if I'm without You
You opened my eyes and helped me to find
How could I've been so blind?
I have fallen once again
Evidently made the wrong decision
Stumbling in the dark
Now I need You here to be my vision
My heart I cannot trust
'Cause it lies to me too much
And my mind just cannot
Understand it all
How could I've been so blind and not see You
The more that I look the more I find
You've led me to the truth
That I am nothing if I'm without You
You opened my eyes and helped me to find
How could I've been so blind?
You took my heart and You changed it
With Your words of life
You took my eyes and You opened them
And gave me sight
And my heart I could not trust
'Cause it lies to me too much
And my mind just couldn't
Understand it all
How could I've been so blind and not see You?
The more that I look the more I find
You've led me to the truth
That I am nothing if I'm without You
You opened my eyes and helped me to find
Oh, how could I've been so blind and not see You?
The more that I look the more I find
You've led me to the truth
That I am nothing if I'm without You
You opened my eyes and helped me to find
How could I've been so blind?
How could I've been so blind?
How could I've been so blind?
You took my heart and You changed it
With Your words of life
You took my eyes and You opened them
And gave me sight
You took my heart
Blackbird, why you wearing that frown?
Don't you know Jesus loves you and me and the preacher on T.V. you're putting
down
Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs
I could spend all of my time in the shade of the trees and listen all day long
Chorus
But you're ever hearing, never understanding
Ever seeing, not perceiving and your heart has grown callous
You're in a storm and lost your way
Won't you fly to heaven and be saved today
Blackbird, now you've broken your wing
You try to fly to high but you know that you can't go anywhere, can't do
anything
Blackbird, who put you in your cage?
Tell me was it God or was it you?
Was it me? I guess it don't matter anyway
(Chorus)
Bridge
You say you need a remedy for the thorn in your pride
I think it's such a tragedy
That you have left him behind
You say you'd light your candle
But your love light doen't shine
You say you talk to angels
Well I say it's such a lie
Superstar Billy Brown
Oh, what your doin' to this town?
Don't you know that everybody here
Wants to be like you
All of your adoring fans
Sittin' in the seats and stands
Listening to every word you say
And watchin' every move
Once I saw a sign that said
'Billy Brown for President'
(It ain't easy)
Bein' a star
(It ain't easy)
To be who you are
(It ain't easy)
But you're goin' far
Well, you say, "There's nothin' to it"
But somebody's gotta do it, boy
Superstar Billy Brown
Stop and listen to the crowd
Everywhere you go
Well everybody's screaming out your name
Do they know the reason why
You point your finger to the skies?
(It ain't easy)
Bein' a star
(It ain't easy)
To be who you are
(It ain't easy)
But you're goin' far
Well, you say, "There's nothin' to it"
But somebody's gotta do it, boy
We all are watching and expect
That whatever you're doin' next
Well, it is gonna be the greatest thing
We have ever seen
(It ain't easy)
Bein' a star
(It ain't easy)
To be who you are
(It ain't easy)
But you're goin' far
Well, you say, "There's nothin' to it"
(It ain't easy)
Bein' a star
(It ain't easy)
To be who you are
(It ain't easy)
But you're goin' far
Well, you say, "There's nothin' to it"
(But somebody's gotta do it)
Yea, you say, "There's nothin' to it"
(But somebody's gotta do it)
Well you say, "There's nothin' to it"
Never mind all the things you heard about me
You're never going to understand it, no
And every time that I've given you the truth
It's never made a bit of difference, no no
Disappointment takes you
Then the doubt, it breaks you
It's enough to make you cry
Always looking for a sign, miracles won't change your mind
Tell me how much evidence you need
Turning truth into a lie, hardened heart and blinded eyes
All you need to do is just believe
Never mind what you think that you would see
It all can change in just a moment
And here before you is all the proof you need
Why can't you ever just believe it? Yeah
Disappointment takes you
Then the doubt, it breaks you
It's enough to make you cry
Always looking for a sign, miracles won't change your mind
Tell me how much evidence you need
Turning truth into a lie, hardened heart and blinded eyes
All you need to do is just believe, oh, yeah yeah yeah
But you need to believe, yeah
Miracles won't change your mind
Tell me how much evidence you need
Turning truth into a lie, hardened heart and blinded eyes
All you need to do is just believe
Always looking for a sign, miracles won't change your mind
Tell me how much evidence you need
Turning truth into a lie, hardened heart and blinded eyes
Alleluia, Alleluia
For our Lord God Almighty reigns
Alleluia, Alleluia
For our Lord God Almighty reigns
Holy, Holy
Are You Lord God Almighty
Worthy is the Lamb

King of kings, Lord of lords
I wanna tell you
I wanna tell you just how I feel
I will show you
I will show you my love is real, yeah
Nobody's ever gonna love you like I am
You never can deny that
Nobody's ever gonna hold you like I am
I'll love you 'til I die, until the day I die
I said, ?Forever"
I said, ?Forever" and I mean it
I made a promise
And I intend to always keep it
Nobody's ever gonna love you like I am
You never can deny that
Nobody's ever gonna hold you like I am
I'll love you 'til I die, until the day I die
Forever is so far beyond the reach of my mind
So I'll give all I have, my heart, my love, my life
Nobody's ever gonna love you like I am
You never can deny that
Nobody's ever gonna hold you like I am
I'll love you 'til I die
Nobody's ever gonna love you like I am
You never can deny that
Nobody's ever gonna hold you like I am
I'll love you 'til I die, until the day I die
Until the day I die
Until the day I die
Here I am at what feels like the end
So I come to you, my Lord, again
With this burden buried deep within
This heart that you have made
And in this trial that I'm going through
I don't question 'cause I know it's true
That the sorrow brings me back to you
And you have made me stronger
(Chorus)
It's been 40 days and 40 nights
Down the road of many trials
And I pray it's only for a season
'Cause in the wilderness and in the flood
You're the one I'm thinkin' of
'Cause I know you've brought me for a reason
I have one more thing I've got to say
Before they try to take my life away
Let it be known that I am not afraid
Let your will be done, Lord
As your children gather in peace
All the angels sing in Heaven
In your temple all that I seek
Is to glimpse your holy presence
All the heavens cannot hold you, Lord
How much less to dwell in me?
I can only make my one desire
Holding on to Thee
All the angels exault you on high
What a kingdom to depart
But you left your throne in the sky
Just to live inside my heart
All the heavens cannot hold you, Lord
How much less to dwell in me?
I can only make my one desire
Holding on to Thee
I will always make my one desire
My will won't break, it barely bends
Same old sinner, the same old sin
On my knees to plead again
Confessions trial, where to begin?
Have mercy, on me a sinning man
Lord have mercy, on me a sinning man
If it's true that the wages of sin is death
Then I've earned quite enough to quit
The reward I deserve I'd surely get
Were it not for you to pay my debt
Have mercy, on me a sinning man
Lord have mercy, on me a sinning man
Oh, I don't think I can take this further
Oh, if it's not one thing it's another
My will won't break, it barely bends
Same old sinner, the same old sin
On my knees to plead again
Confessions trial, where to begin?
Lord have mercy, on me a sinning man
Oh, have mercy, on me a sinning man
Lord have mercy, on me a sinning man
Oh, have mercy, on me a sinning man, oh yeah
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy, mercy, mercy
Oh, I don't think I can take this further
Well, I got a message, I got a song
Can I get a witness? Tell me what's going on
I'll show the people a better way
Maybe I will tomorrow, maybe I will today
'Cause I got a feeling, it won't be long
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
But I know one thing for sure
Only time will tell it
I got a feeling coming over me
Nothing else here can set me free
But I know one thing for sure
Well, I got to show it
Well I got a mission, I got a sign
Is anybody listening? I gotta make sure this time
I'll tell the people what's on my mind
Maybe I will tomorrow, maybe I will tonight
'Cause I got a feeling, it won't be long
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
But I know one thing for sure
Only time will tell it
I got a feeling coming over me
Nothing else here can set me free
But I know one thing for sure
Well, I got to show it
I got a feeling, I got a feeling
I got a feeling, I got a feeling
I got a message, I got a song
Everybody help me sing along
I got a message, I got a song
Everybody help me sing along
I got a message, I got a song
Everybody help me sing along
I got a message, I got a song
Everybody help me sing along
Well I got a feeling, it won't be long
Maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong
But I know one thing for sure
Only time will tell it
Well I got a feeling coming over me
Nothing else here can set me free
But I know one thing for sure
Well, I got to show it
I got a feeling, oh I got a feeling
Oh I got a feeling, oh I got a feeling, oh yeah
I got a message, I got a song
Yesterday I found
That everything I knew was wrong
It was upside down
The life I thought I had was gone
But You came and whispered love to me
And You gave me strength to carry on
Oh, the sun is shining
Oh, a new day's dawning
The sun is shining
Yesterday I lost
Everything I had and loved
Then I cried out for You, Lord
And You came and picked me up
And the sorrow lasted through the night
But the joy came with the morn
Oh, the sun is shining
There is hope for me again
Oh, a new day's dawning
The sun is shining
I will lift my voice
No, I won't be silent
For You heard my cry
And You turned my mourning into dancing
And so forever I'll sing
Oh, the sun shining
There is hope for me again
Oh, a new day's dawning
Yeah the sun is shining
People talkin' like it's the end of time
And I look up to the heavens for a sign
Everybody's lookin' at me but I won't be deceived or afraid
'Cause I know that the Son is on the way
Yeah, sky falls down, it crumbles into the sea
The sun goes out, He's coming back for me
I'll be found at the place where the gravity leaves the ground
And I won't be comin' down now
And I've heard rumors that war's not far away
If they take me I know just what to say
Everybody's up in arms but I won't be alarmed or afraid
'Cause I know that the Son is on the way
Yeah, sky falls down, it crumbles into the sea
The sun goes out, He's coming back for me
I'll be found at the place where the gravity leaves the ground
And I won't be comin' down, down, down
Yeah, sky falls down, it crumbles into the sea
The sun goes out, He's coming back for me
I'll be found at the place where the gravity leaves the ground
And I won't be comin' down
Sky falls down, it crumbles into the sea
The sun goes out, He's coming back for me
I'll be found at the place where the gravity leaves the ground
Lost like a little child
Helpless as a baby
I was searchin' desperately to find
Someone who could save me
Then along came from out of nowhere
Precious as the light of day
You gave me something no one could take away
Yeah, when You took my place
Chained like a prisoner
From the day that I was born
Blamed like a criminal
For the things that I'd done
Then along came from out of nowhere
Precious as the light of day
Well, You gave me something no one could take away
Yeah, when You took my place
Took my place, yeah yeah
Lost like a little child
Helpless as a baby
I was searchin' desperately to find
Someone who could save me, yeah
Then along came from out of nowhere
Precious as the light of day
Well, You gave me something no one could take away
Yeah, when You took my place
Took my place, yeah
All the promises I?ve broken
All the times I?ve let you down
You?ve forgot them but still I hold on
To the pain that makes me drown
Now, I?m ready
To let it go
To give it away
Take it all ?cause I can?t take it any longer
With all I have, I can?t make it on my own
Take the first, take the last
Take the good and take the rest
Here I am, all I have, take it all
All the roads that lie before me
All the struggles I go through
Every second I?m reminded
That it all belongs to You
Now I?m ready
To let it go
To give it away
Take it all ?cause I can?t take it any longer
With all I have, I can?t make it on my own
Take the first, take the last
Take the good and take the rest
Here I am, all I have, take it all
And ever since I died to myself
You gave a better life to me
I give You my finest moment
I give You the last breath I breathe
Take it all ?cause I can?t take it any longer
With all I have, I can?t make it on my own
Take the first, take the last
Take the good and take the rest
Take it all ?cause I can?t take it any longer
With all I have, I can?t make it on my own
Take the first, take the last
Take the good and take the rest
Now listen there's something much better
Than what I had and what I had been told
And now one day I heard a message spoken,
Forever in my heart the words I hold
The Healer said there is only one river
The river of life, filled with faith and love
It's flowing from the sacrifice of Jesus, and
Brings us all into the Kingdom of God.
Chorus:
So i'm going down, to drown myself today
Nothin left to live for, nothin in my way
Hold me underwater, take me even farther
Drown me down by the river today
Will you make me a believer?
Take me by my hand, hold me as I'm falling in,
Cleanse me and wash my sins
So here I am at the edge of the water
That seperates me from my death and life
and still I come here with unanswered questions
Take a good look around you
And I?m sure that you are bound to
Think that all you have comes down to
You and what you?ve done
And if you look far beyond this
There?s a life I hope you don?t miss
What has kept you from moving on
Is learning to let go
And there?s so much more
Than what you?re looking for
Caught up in yourself
Call it like it is
Well, you?re so good
But you?ll never be good enough
You think if you surrender
It?s the end but just remember
Life is more than dying embers
Burning in your soul
And I know it?s true
?Cause I am just like you
Caught up in yourself
Call it like it is
Well, you?re so good
But you?ll never be good enough
Caught up in yourself
Call it like it is
Well, you?re so good
But you?ll never be good enough
Thank God for mercy
Thank God for His grace
Thank God for everything you?ve got
Before it?s too late, oh yeah
And there?s so much more
Than what you?re looking for
Caught up in yourself
Call it like it is
Well, you?re so good
But you?ll never be good enough
Caught up in yourself
Call it like it is
Well, you?re so good
But you?ll never be good enough
Thank God for mercy
Thank God for His grace
Thank God for everything you?ve got
Before it?s too late
Thank God for mercy
Thank God for His grace
Thank God for everything you?ve got
Before it?s too late, before it?s too late
You can all call me crazy for the things that I might say
And you can laugh all you want to, yeah, and I know there will come a day
When we all will come together and learn to set aside our hate
If we could learn to love our neighbor, yeah
Just like we would love ourselves
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to brave the weather through all of the storms
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to learn to love, we've got to learn to love
You can call me a dreamer, but these dreams will come true
And yes, I am a firm believer, yeah in the things that we could do
If we would all just come together and let the Lord lead our way
There is nothing that we can't do, oh there is nothing we can't face
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to brave the weather all through all of the storms
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to learn to love
And I know that there will come a day when the Lord will call his own away
To a place that He has made for all of us
But until the day of His return, there's a lesson that we've got to learn
We are brothers and we're sisters, we are one, oh yeah
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to brave the weather through all of the storms
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to learn to love
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to brave the weather through all of the storms
We've got to come together 'cause in the end we can make it alright
We've got to learn to love
We've got to learn to love
You know we've got to learn
You know we've got to
You know we've got to learn to love
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don't you know, oh yeah
Joy to the world, the Lord is come!
Let earth receive her King;
Let every heart prepare Him room,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven and nature sing,
And heaven, and heaven, and nature sing.
Joy to the world
Joy to the world
Joy to the world
Joy to the world
Joy to the world, the Savior reigns!
Let saints their songs employ;
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat the sounding joy,
Repeat, repeat, the sounding joy.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of His righteousness,
And wonders of His love,
And wonders of His love,
O Holy Night! The stars are brightly shining,
It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth.
Long lay the world in sin and error pining.
Till He appeared and the Spirit felt its worth.
A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees! Oh, hear the angel voices!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born;
Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
O night divine, the night when Christ was born;
Fall on your kneew! Oh, hear the angel voices!
Well I was blind
But now I can see
You made a believer
Out of me
Well I was blind
Now I can see
You made a believer
Out of me
(Chorus)
And I'm movin' on up now
I'm gettin' out of the darkness
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
Well I was lost
But now I am found
I believe in you
I've got no doubts
Well I was lost
But now I am found
I believe in you
I've got no doubts
(Chorus)
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
My light shines on
I'm getting out of darkness
It feels like forever since I can remember
It seems like it's always been this way
Keep the good news to ourselves, a secret we'll never tell
Don't know why we've been so ashamed
But changes are in the air, sparks are starting everywhere
And oh, what a sweet, sweet sound
With millions of voices, singing new choruses
Leading the way to higher ground
Keep on, keep on shinin'
Wherever you may be
Keep on, keep on shinin'
For all the world to see
Having faith in the long run is easier said than done
It's hard to live out in the light of day
You're bruised and you're battered
Your dreams have been shattered
Best laid plans scattered over the place
Despite all your tendencies, God sees it differently
Your struggle's a time to grow
And you, you're a miracle, anything but typical
It's time for the whole wide world to know
Keep on, keep on shinin'
Wherever you may be
Keep on, keep on shinin'
For all the world to see
All the world can see you
Everyone can see you
Everyone can see you
Keep on, keep on shinin'
Wherever you may be
Keep on, keep on shinin'
For all the world to see
Keep on, keep on, keep on shinin'
Wherever you may be
Keep on, keep on shinin'
For all the world to see
And all the world can see you
And everyone can see you
Cannot find the words to say I'm sorry
Don't know how to show You I was wrong
Wasted all that You had given me
Now I'm left with nothing and no one
And I find it's my fault
I'm the only one to blame
For the tears and the pain
I don't know what I can say
Or would it matter anyway
'Cause I don't know how you could still forgive me
For all that I have put You through
Is there anything that I can do
I would give my life to find Your mercy
What will I find that You have already
I don't know
All my life has lead to this decision
To return and ask You this one thing
And if I had one chance or if a million
Would it ever be enough for me
To explain what I've done
Now I know that I was wrong
Will you hold me again
I don't know what I can say
Or would it matter anyway
'Cause I don't know how You can still forgive me
for all that I have out You through
Is there anything I can do
I would give my life to find Your mercy
What will it take until You forgive me
I don't know
And I find it's my fault
I'm the only one to blame
For the tears and the pain
I don't know what I can say
Or would it matter anyway
'Cause I don't know how You could still forgive me
For all that I have put You through
Is there anything that I can do
I would give my life to find your mercy
I don't know what I can say
Or would it matter anyway
When the day began and you opened up your eyes
No, you didn't recognize what you were seeing
Then it all came back, you remembered where you've been
Well, it never seems to end and you're still running
Will you ever change your mind?
You're almost out of time
You better give up, gotta stop running
It's the end of the line, it's time to surrender
Hands up, turn it around
Fall to the ground, are you gonna surrender?
Now the day is done and you want to close your eyes
And pretend that you are fine but you'd be lying
And you want it back, the life that you once had
'Cause inside you find that you are slowly dying
Will you ever change your mind?
You're almost out of time
You better give up, gotta stop running
It's the end of the line, it's time to surrender
Hands up, turn it around
Fall to the ground, are you gonna surrender?
Give up, gotta stop running
It's the end of the line, it's time to surrender
Hands up, turn it around
Fall to the ground, are you gonna surrender?
Oh yeah
Are you gonna surrender? Oh yeah
You better give up, gotta stop running
It's the end of the line, it's time to surrender
Hands up, turn it around
Fall to the ground, yeah
You better give up, gotta stop running
It's the end of the line, it's time to surrender
Hands up, turn it around
Fall to the ground, are you gonna surrender?
Yeah, are you gonna surrender?
Oh yeah, oh yeah
I've heard all the stories
I've seen all the signs
Witnessed all the glories
Tasted all that's fine
Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
Nothing compares to the greatness of Knowing you Lord, oh no...
I see all the people
Wasting all their time
Building up their riches
For a life that's fine
But Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
Nothing compares to the greatness of Knowing you Lord, oh no...
And i find myself just living for today
'cause i don't know what tomorrow's gonna bring
So no matter if i rise or fall, i'll never be alone
Oh no...
Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
These thousand hills roll ever on
Footprints of a mighty God
They bring me to my knees in praise
Amazing love, amazing grace
T'was on a hill my Savior died
A broken heart and bleeding side
Hill of the Skull, Mount Calvary
The blood He shed, He shed for me
When Heaven's hills at last I roam
Forever settled in my home
I'll join the saints around your throne
Your kingdom, Lord, rolls ever on
La La La La La La La La (x7)
These thousand hills roll ever on
Footprints of a mighty God
They bring me to my knees in praise
Amazing love, amazing grace
These thousand hills roll ever on
Ripples of the coming storm
The morning star precedes the dawn
These thousand hills roll ever on
Where did I go wrong?
Tell me what I have done here
It didn't take too long
For the sun to disappear
Now it's gone and I'm alone
Chorus
This song was meant for you
It had a happy ending
But you have to change your mind
I don't know what happened
Thought that you would never leave
Is a song forever?
Life for you will surely change
Maybe for the better
None of this turned out
Quite the way I had planned it
But I know that in the end
It will work out for best
Still you're gone
And I'm alone
Chorus
This song was meant for you
It had a happy ending
But you have to change your mind
I don't know what happened
Thought that you would never leave
Is a song forever?
Life for you will surely change
Maybe for the better
You never know what the future holds for you
But of all I have heard this one thing's true
Nothing can separate us from God's love
In out lives there is bound to come some pain
Surely as there are storms and falling rain
Just believe that the one who holds the storms
Will bring the sun
Chorus
This song was meant for you
It had a happy ending
But you have to change your mind
I don't know what happened
Thought that you would never leave
Is a song forever?
Life for you will surely change
Maybe for the better

Well, I was there when you were torn apart
And now a piece of you is gone
Some how you wish that you could only find
A little strength to carry on
You've tried so hard to make it on your own
That your heart has come undone
So I am here to prove that I alone
Have the power to overcome
Don't let your heart be troubled
This world will never keep you down
It will never keep you down
So rise up, my friend
No, this will never be the end
So rise up, my friend
And live again
I didn't want you to feel this way
It's not what life was meant to be
And so for you, my friend, I'll take your shame
You can give it all to me
'Cause you've wrestled demons every day
And they've dragged you to your knees
But in your weakness you will learn to find
That I will always be your strength
Don't let your heart be troubled
This world will never keep you down
It will never keep you down
So rise up, my friend
No, this will never be the end
So rise up, my friend
And live again
In life or in death, through joy or regret
And all of the secret things you have done
No matter what comes, my friend
Nothing can keep you from the love of God
So rise up, my friend
No, this will never be the end
So rise up, my friend
And live again
So rise up
So rise up
So rise up, my friends
And live again
Rise up, my friend
There was a time when i thought that i had you figured out
Told ya before and i'll say it once more, now and then i had my doubts
I'll never pretend to know what you are doing
It's true that you move in mysterious ways
And i looked for you in the fire and the wind
But you weren't there as far as I could see
I thought i hear you shout
but then i figured out
that all a long you're whispering to me
And i'm still listening
Just when i thought that i had caught a glimpse of who you are
You taught me to listen, i needed to learn right from the very start
I never will be the man that i quite need to
But that's alright
'cause you're enough for me
And i looked for you in the fire and the wind
But you weren't there as far as I could see
I thought i'd hear you shout
but then i figured out
that all a long you're whispering to me
And i'm still listening
And i looked for you in the fire and the wind
But you weren't there as far as I could see
I thought i'd hear you shout
but then i figured out
that all a long you're whispering to me

Some see a teacher
Standing on a hill
Speaking words of wisdom
Some see a healer
Reaching out his hand
To give sight to a blind man
Some see a dreamer
Wasting his life
On what can never be
Some see a fool
Dying for his dreams
But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love
Some see a prisoner
Alone before his judge
With no one to defend him
Some see a victim
Beaten and abused
With all the world against him
Some see a martyr
Carrying his cross
For what he believes
Some see a hero
Who set his people free
But I see love (I see love)
I see love (I see love)
Light of heaven breaking through
Well I see grace (I see grace)
I see God's face (I See Gods face)
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
With your last breath
I see love
Through your death
I see love
I see peace in the eyes of the king
I see hope in your suffering (I see love)
I see a calm in the center of the storm
I see a Saviour
I see love
I see love
Light of heaven breaking through (heaven breaking through)
I see grace
I see God's face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
I see love
When I see you
I see heaven breaking through
See Gods face
Shining pure and perfect love
When I see you
When I see you
When I see you
I see love

Nothing can stop me, I am not gonna change my mind
No one can keep me from the road that I'm on this time
No matter what, I'm gonna do what it takes to make it

I never even thought to listen, no, I never knew
And now You've given me a second chance and I'll take it
So here I am, Lord, I wanna be where You are

When you're down and you're falling fast
And you feel like your hope won't last
You know that I'll be your miracle
When you find that your faith is gone
You're not sure if you can carry on
You know that I'll be your miracle
You've been through more than anyone should
Can you find the good in such a bad situation?
You never thought this could happen to you
Now you know the truth, you feel like your life is fading
Well, I hope you can remember
When you're down and you're falling fast
And you feel like your hope won't last
You know that I'll be your miracle
And when you find that your faith is gone
You're not sure if you can carry on
You know that I'll be your miracle
The life you had is going to change
But please don't be afraid
Well, it might be for the better
When you're down and you're falling fast
And you feel like your hope won't last
You know that I'll be your miracle

You hit me like a bomb
And everything I'm used to
Is suddenly gone
Sorry to accuse you
Do you know what you've done
When you hit me like a bomb
Hear the sound of the sirens ringing
See the world of a life that's changing
Well you hit me like a bomb
I was scared and I started running
Can't say I never saw it coming
When you hit me like a bomb
(La la la la la la la la…)
You hit me like a bomb
Everything's changing
It didn't take long
For you to start rearranging
Everything that I've known
When you hit me like a bomb
Hear the sound of the sirens ringing
See the world of a life that's changing
Well you hit me like a bomb
I was scared and I started running
Can't say I never saw it coming
When you hit me like a bomb
(La la la la la la la la…)
You hit me like a bomb and I saw it coming
Hit me like a bomb and it's all my fault
You hit me like a bomb and I saw it coming
Hit me like a bomb and it's all my fault
Hear the sound of the sirens ringing
See the world of a life that's changing
Well you hit me like a bomb
I was scared and I started running
Can't say I never saw it coming
When you hit me like a bomb
Well I seek the silence through the chaos and the noise
That's when I'm listening, I want to hear Your voice
Sometimes it softly speaks a whisper on the wind
Sometimes it's louder when Your spirit rushes in
I can feel it all around me
I can feel it all around me
Well I keep on searching for Your presence in this place
Well I see Your hand at work, I feel Your touch of grace
Sometimes it falls like rain upon this thirsty land
Sometimes You gently stir the heart of every man
I can feel it all around me
I can feel it all around me
I can feel it, I can feel it
I can feel Your heartbeat
I can feel it, I can feel it
I can feel Your heartbeat
Well I pray You'd send Your presence down
Send it down and fill us with Your Spirit now
I can feel it all around me
I can feel it all around me
I can feel it, I can feel it
I can feel Your heartbeat
I can feel it, I can feel it
I paint a picture, I think it's easier to live that way
But my heart is really broken
I'm not the man you think I am when you see me
each day
Torn apart and then left open
Father come and fill me up
I can't wait for You to overflow my cup
My heart makes me wonder how much longer
'Til You're coming back to take me away
My heart longs for You to fly right through the sky
And take me to the place where I
Will never feel my heart break down again
I search the sky and then I try imagining You there
Looking on anticipating
You're standing by and knowing I will join You in the air
Your love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
And Your faithfulness
Stretches to the skies
And Your righteousness
Is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows
Like the ocean's tide
And I will lift my voice
To worship You, my King
And I will find my strength
In the shadow of Your wings
Your Love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness
Stretches to the skies
Your righteousness
Is like the mighty mountains
Your justice flows
Like the ocean's tide
And I will lift my voice
To worship You my King
And I will find my strength
In the shadow of Your wings
And I will lift my voice
To worship You my King
And I will find my strength
In the shadow of Your wings
And I will lift my voice
To worship You my King
And I will find my strength
In the shadow of Your wings
Your Love, oh Lord
Reaches to the heavens
Your faithfulness
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When this cruel world tears us apart
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When sharpened words have left their scars
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
And it's overflowing and showing us all
How deep and how wide is Your love
It never stops, it rages on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
When I am tired and so afraid
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
When darkness falls and my vision fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
And it's always burning and stirring my soul
To know You and love You much more
It never stops or ever fades
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
It's never gonna stop
It's flowing from my heart
It's never gonna fade
Your love will light my way
When all my strength and hope is gone
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
Your love is like a river flowing from my heart
Your love is like a fire that will light my way
Your love is like a rock that I am standing on
I've heard all the stories
I've seen all the signs
Witnessed all the glories
Tasted all that's fine
Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
Nothing compares to the greatness of Knowing you Lord, oh no...
I see all the people
Wasting all their time
Building up their riches
For a life that's fine
But Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
Nothing compares to the greatness of Knowing you Lord, oh no...
And i find myself just living for today
'cause i don't know what tomorrow's gonna bring
So no matter if i rise or fall, i'll never be alone
Oh no...
Nothing Compares to the greatness of knowing you Lord. Oh no,
You said all that followed You may find
Comfort and pain, blessings in hard times
Were I to leave, where else would I go?
The words of life and of truth You hold
And all I want is love
And I confess to this
And I will take it, Lord
All You have to give
How great the love lavished on us all
That we can be the children of God
And all I want is love

You are holy
You are worthy
You are worthy
Of all our love
Yeah yeah yeah
What if I told you that I love you
What if I showed you just how much
I would do anything to hold you
Give everything to prove my love
[Chorus:]
Yeah, yeah, no one can keep me from your side
Yeah, yeah, but if they ever even try
They'd have to drag me away kicking and screaming
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
They'd have to drag me away kicking and screaming
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if you said you didn't want me
Kept me away, said we were through
You don't know just how ready and willing
To do everything that I can to convince you
[Chorus]
I would go anywhere
As long as you are there
You know I'd do anything
As long as you're with me
I would fight for you
If you want me too
I will not lie to you
Give my my life for you
They'd have to drag me away kicking and screaming
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I've been taking it all for granted
And everything that I have been givin'
Now it is the day to start my mission
It's been a long time comin'
There are many searching for answers
Tell me who am I to keep it to myself?
And I've grown weary of my own fears
Yeah, it's been a long time a comin'
Well, I've been running just like an outlaw, yeah
And I am willing and I am able
To give you something you can believe on
It's been a long time comin'
True believers have been staring
Up into the sky waiting for Your return
Well, I know one day clouds will roll down
It's been a long time comin'
I've been running just like an outlaw, yeah
And I am willing and I am able, yeah
To give you something you can believe on
It's been a long time comin'
Oh, a long time comin'
I've been running just like an outlaw, yeah
And I am willing and I am able
To give you something you can believe on
It's been a long time comin', oh yeah
A long time comin', yeah, oh
I am able to give you something
It's been a long time, long time
I?m a son of a good man
I?m the child of an angel
I?m the brother of a wild one
And I?m looking for direction
I?m the lover of a beauty
I?m the father of blessings
I?m a singer of a love song
But is that all I?m good for?
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
So take me and make me something so much more
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
So change me and make me someone better than before
I?m a saint and a sinner
I?m a lover and a fighter
I?m a true believer
With great desire
I?m a preacher of grace
Prophet of love, teacher of truth
I?ve fallen down so many times
But here I stand in front of You, yeah
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
So take me and make me something so much more
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
So change me and make me someone better than before

Oh, better than today, oh yeah, oh
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
So take me and make me something so much more
This is who I am, oh, this is who I am
As long as I remember
I've been walking through the wilderness
Praying to the father
And waiting for my time
I've come here with a mission
And soon I'll give my life for this world
I'm praying in the garden
And I'm looking for a miracle
I find the journey hard but
It's the reason I was born
And can this cup be passed on?
Lord, I pray Your will be done
In this world
So I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
To the end of the road
Through the struggle and pain
And I'll do it for love
No, it won't be in vain
Yes, I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
I feel like I'm alone here
And I'm treated like a criminal
The time has come for me now
Even though I've done no wrong
Father, please forgive them
They know not what they've done
In this world
So I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
To the end of the road
Through the struggle and pain
And I'll do it for love
No, it won't be in vain
Yes, I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
Three more days and I'll be coming back again
Three more days and I'll be coming back again
Yeah, so I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
To the end of the road
Through the struggle and pain
And I'll do it for love
No, it won't be in vain
Yes, I'll carry my cross
And I'll carry the shame
Yeah, I'll carry my cross
Yeah, I'll carry the shame
Oh, I will do it for love, yeah
Oh, I will carry my cross
Lyrics by Mac Powell/Music by Third Day
From the recording: Come Together, Track #6.
Your letter said that you were leaving
But you didn't know how long
I have never stopped believing
That one day you would return
And though waiting is the hardest
Part of everything I do
I do confess it's getting better
Knowing I will be with you
It's alright
It's okay
I won't worry about tomorrow
For it brings me one more day
Closer than I was to you
Now the question isn't "will you"
What I want to know is "when"
If it's one day or a million
I will wait for you 'til then
So I'm holding on to your words
And the promises you've made
There is not one you have broken
There's not one I didn't take
Your letter said that you were leaving
But you didn't know how long
I will never stop believing
Well, late one night, she started to cry and thought he ain’t coming home
She was tired of the lies, tired of the fight, but she didn’t want to see him go
She fell on her knees and said, “I haven’t prayed since I was young
But Lord above I need a miracle
Well no matter who you are and no matter what you’ve done
There will come a time when you can’t make it on your own
And in your hour of desperation
Know you’re not the only one, praying
Lord above, I need a miracle
I need a miracle
He lost his job and all he had in the fall of ’09
Now he feared the worst, that he would lose his children and his wife
So he drove down deep into the woods and thought he’d end it all
Take me from my home
Drag me with the tether
Tell me it's all wrong
The things I've always known
Instill in me all that you think
Will make all of us better
Do just what you want
It matters not to me
I will never bow down
Though I know, I will be saved from the fire
I will never compromise
All that I have and everything I hold, oh no
Call us all around
To show us what you have made
Command us all to fall
When music starts to play
And everyone from everywhere
Will show you their allegiance
But the child of God
Will faithfully stand tall
I will never bow down
Though I know, I will be saved from the fire, oh yeah
I will never compromise
All that I have and everything I hold, oh no, oh no
I will never bow down
Though I know, I will be saved from the fire, oh yeah
I will never compromise
All that I have and everything I hold, oh no
I will never bow down
Though I know, I will be saved from the fire, oh yeah
I will never compromise
All that I have and everything I hold, oh no
I will never bow down
