Part of me is the prodigal
Part of me is the other brother
But I think the heart of me
Is really somewhere between them
Some days I'm running wild
Some days we're reconciled
But I wonder all the while
Why you put up with me, when
I wrestle most days
To find ways to do as I please
I always have, I always will
You saved me once, You save me still
My longing heart, Your love alone can fill
You always have, always will
I was born with a wayward heart
Still I live with a restless spirit
My soul is so well worn
You'd think I'd have arrived by now
I'm caught in the trappings of
My search for lasting love
I've made mistakes enough
To last me a lifetime
I still slip, I still fall
But I'll always run back to you
I always have, I always will
You saved me once, You save me still
My longing heart, Your love alone can fill
You always have, always will
I'm gonna keep trusting You
I see what You've seen me through
I'm goin' where You have gone (yeah)
I'm letting You lead me on
All my days (always and forever)
Never far (never leave me never)
Here I'll stay (ever love me ever)
Here's my heart
I'll always love You, love You (yeah)
I always have, I always will
You saved me once, You save me still
My longing heart, Your love alone can fill
You always have, always will
I always have, I always will
You saved me once, You save me still
My longing heart, Your love alone can fill
You always have, always will
It's another day
Talking to myself
There's no other way
Of making it straight ahead
It's another May
I'm not getting closer
And no other stay for me
Till the end of flight
Far away
Will I meet you there
Far away
Will I see you again (and again)
I'm thinking about you are so
Far away from home
It's another day
Flying through cold space
And no other say
Like endless vacancy
It's another way
Of getting abandoned
Still no other lay in this ship
For me to ride
Far away
Will I meet you there
Far away
Will I see you again (and again)
I'm thinking about you are so
I ask for attention
I feel the apprehension
And I get no answer
Felt like I was decaying
Devoutly started praying
Let my evil die
I obtain no reunion
It seems you can't forgive me
Please send me an angel
[chorus:]
Black hole wisdom
Who did I pray to?
You never listened
Why can't you say
Where were you all my wordly life?
Why can't you say
Show me the way
To salvation day
This might be the last chance
For me to make my humble stance
And offer my sacrifice
I've come to join you
Got to find a way through to you
Gimme a little piece of advice
Don't lead me into temptation
It's time for the revelation
Now I realise
[bridge]
Till salvation day
Till salvation day
For every soul there is a midnight
When it's silent in the room but loud inside
You lie awake what seems like forever
And you wrestle with the big stuff that can
not be denied
All of life
Has led you to this moment
When the time comes
And the games are finally over
There's no more pretending
All charades are done
And the time comes
When the soul is finally ready
You know the truth and
This time you don't run
God is waiting there, you'll find
When the time comes
For every soul this is a dawning
When we see there's more it life than
we believed
Faith is that one road that's left to travel
But it means we have to start to trust
what we can't see
Then at last
We chose to take that first step
He'll rush
He'll reach
He'll run
He'll do
1 2 3 4
Why, why, tell me do you wonder why
Some can look so hard and miss the truth, yeah
Some will stumble over it a hundred times
And never ever see the living proof
Well, there's a kind of love
The world could never deny
Let everybody see it
In our lives
The world will wonder why if you and I will shine His light
And hearts will discover life when we decide to let ours go
We've got to give it up and live the love that opened our eyes
Live your life the world will wonder why
Why, why, someone try and tell me why
We would want it any other way, yeah yeah
A heart could change before our very eyes
Well, I've seen the difference love can make
Where is the kind of love
This world could never explain
It's time to live the gospel
Unashamed
The world will wonder why if you and I will shine His light
And hearts will discover life when we decide to let ours go
We've got to give it up and live the love that opened our eyes
Live your life the world will wonder why
If we were living with a passion what would be the reaction
I know a single heart can change the world
If we were loving with a strong love
Then their eyes would see and the world might believe
The world will wonder why
The world will wonder why
The world will wonder why if you and I will shine His light
And hearts will discover life when we decide to let ours go
We've got to give it up and live the love that opened our eyes
Live your life the world will wonder why
[Incomprehensible]
The world will wonder why if you and I will shine His light
And hearts will discover life when we decide to let ours go
We've got to give it up and live the love that opened our eyes
Sometimes it's hard for me to understand
Why we pull away from each other so easily
Even though we're all walking the same road
Yet we build dividing walls between our brothers and ourselves
But I, I don't care what label you may wear
If you believe in Jesus you belong with me
The bond we share is all I care to see
And we can change this world forever
If you will join with me, join and sing
Oh you're my brother, you're my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work until He comes
There's no foe that can defeat us
When we're walking side by side
As long as there is love we will stand
The day will come when we will be as one
And with a mighty voice together
We will proclaim that Jesus, Jesus is King
And it will echo through the earth
It will shake the nations and the world will see, see that
You're my brother, you're my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work until He comes
There's no foe that can defeat us
When we're walking side by side
As long as there is love we will stand
The time is here, the time is now
To take a stand, to make a vow
I won't let go, you're not alone
Now and forever we'll sing together
You're my brother, you're my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work until He comes
There's no foe that can defeat us
When we're walking side by side
As long as there is love we will stand
You're my brother, you're my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work until He comes
There's no foe that can defeat us
When we're walking side by side
As long as there is love we will stand
We will stand
We will, we will stand
As little children we would dream of Christmas morn
Of all the gifts and toys we knew we'd find
But we never realized a baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
We were the reason that He gave His life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost, He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
As the years went by we learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day, a man hung crying in the rain
All because of love, all because of love
And we were the reason that He gave His life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost, He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
I've finally found the reason for living
It's in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do, every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
And we are the reason that He gave His life
We are the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost, He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
He is our reason to live
Don't You know that you are the reason
That He came oh, He came to save us
When He gave His life for us, He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave
Everything that He had He gave
To show us the reason to live
Don't you know that you are the reason
That He came oh He came to save us
When He gave His life for us, He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave
Everything that He had He gave
To show us the reason to live
Don't you know that you are the reason
That He came oh He came to save us
When He gave His life for us, He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave
Everything that He had He gave
There's a place of quiet stillness 'tween the light and shadows reach
Where the hurting and the hopeless seek everlasting peace
Words of men and songs of angels whisper comfort bittersweet
Mending grief and life eternal where joy and sorrow meet
There is a place where hope remains
In crowns of thorns and crimson stains
And tears that fall on Jesus' feet
Where joy and sorrow meet
There's a place the lost surrender and the weary will retreat
Full of grace and mercy tender in times of unbelief
For the wounded there is healing, strength is given to the weak
Broken hearts find love redeeming where joy and sorrow meet
There's a place of thirst and hunger where the roots of faith grow deep
And there is rain and rolling thunder when the road is rough and steep
There is hope in desperation there is victory in defeat
There's a man
You don't know his full name
But the real face
Wait for the light
They are in between us
Boldfaced and overbearing
We try to beat the gods
Creating better lifeforms
Tainting the human air
New notions for the fortune
Except for one of you
We sing the same tune
There is no place for war
They are in between us
Under cover you will see
They are in between us
Corrupt and unfair into darkness
They are in between us
And maybe inside
Inside of our minds
Do you ever think about it
We could be made by them
Drilled to be dulled and silent
The puppets from the past
Locked in the secret door
Behind the deepest abyss
Do you mind the password
Can you access your brain
They are in between us
Under cover you will see
They are in between us
Corrupt and unfair into darkness
They are in between us
And maybe inside
Inside of our minds
There's a man
You don't know his full name
But the real face
Wait for the light
A sleepless night
Near my river that flows
I'm longing to see your face
The winds are so high
As I start to shiver
And the clouds fade away
[chorus:]
Embrace me please
And let my dream come true
You are the vision in my painting in the sky
Over my land
And your beauty shines
When the moon surrounds me
Makes me feel so insecure
Can't you feel my pain
As I'm reaching out for you
And it's driving me insane
Ive been so long in midnight
Praying for the light of dawn
And hopes been my companion
In the dark to keep me strong
But theres something awesome
Shining out through the ebony
And now my soul can finally see
There is glory in the night
So beautiful and bright
A glimpse of You
Coming from the other side
You are reaching through the stars
And Youre speaking to my heart
I know its You
Calling from the other side
How could I not have realized
Youve been here all along
So constant and so faithful
Through the darkness and beyond
Its unthinkable, undreamable
Theres peace when I look up
Cause I see the evidence of love
The other side
tonight
I am dancing through the night
Knowing things will be all right
Because of You
Ill make it to the other side
You are reaching through the stars
And Youre speaking to my heart
I know its You
I felt guilty without a reason
An outsider with wide eyed gazed
The fear in my heart
As my palms sweat
I'm helpless! Got to run out of here
He pulls a gun without a reason
And I'm a victim of innocent age
I see his madness kin to creature
And don't blame this on me
[chorus:]
I see the signs of danger
In the eyes of the stranger
It paralyzes me, confuses me
Until a new day begins
I see reactions of anger
In the eyes of the stranger
It paralyzes me, confuses me
Until the dawn returns
Is it a nightmare what I have been through?
Is it a dream or reality?
He's grining my way without knowing me
I don't know what the hell's going on
It seems like he is mentally retarded
And what for mankind existing today
I see the mirror and neon lightning
Will I go blind?
We did walk
So many years now
We don't know
How far we have to go
To reach another place
Now we feel
The body's weariness
Just see this tired face
But the journey must go on
On the road to Eden
We had been
Through endless valleys
We could stay
As long as we did need
To keep on living with joy
For a while
There rules to leisure on
To stay forever here
But the journey must go on
On the road to Eden
We did walk
So many years now
We don't know
How far we have to go
To reach another place
Now we feel
The body's weariness
Just see this tired face
But the journey must go on
VERSE 1:
I've seen the world through jaded eyes
I've heard the silence in the still of the night
I hid my heart, it broke in two
Oh I'd be nowhere if it wasn't for you
I heard your voice
You turned me around
It's like I'm flying with my feet on the ground
CHORUS 1:
And you are the best thing that's happened to me
Now I know what I need my life to be
VERSE 2:
I felt a cool rain fall on me
And I discovered how it feels to be free
I lived some days like a dream come true
I'd give it all for just a moment with you
I hear your voice
I run to the sound
It's like I'm flying with my feet on the ground
CHORUS 2:
And you are the best thing that's happened to me
Now I know what I need my life to be
You are the one thing that keeps me alive
Whatever happens I know I'll survive
BRIDGE:
And I know (And I know I'll see in eternity)
When all my tears fade away (They will fade away)
( And you will wipe the tears away from my eyes)
I will see
( And I know I'll see in eternity)
The best thing I have ever seen
(You're the best thing)
(You're the best thing I have seen)
Yeah...
Yeah, You're the best thing.
All the colors of the rainbow
All the voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation
Lives to testify
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the hope in every heart will
Speak what love has done
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
In the solitary moment of His birth
On this barren dusty land
All of heaven kissed the face of the earth
With a miracle of love
God became a man
But He was sent away to draw His final breath
When He was only thirty-three
And in the shame of dying a criminal's death
He cleansed an angry world
And in His suffering I see
The glory of the blood
The beauty of the body
That was broken for our forgiveness
The glory of His perfect love
Is the heart of the story
The glory of the blood
Now I have tried to find salvation on my own
In a search for something real
But there's a guilty heart inside this flesh and bone
Fall upon His grace
And I begin to feel
repeat chorus
And when I close my eyes I can see Him hanging there
Oh the precious wounded Lamb of God
All the majesty in this world cannot compare to the glory
The beauty of the body
That was broken for our forgiveness
repeat chorus
But He was sent away to draw His final breath
3 a.m and you're tossing in your bed
Thoughts are turning in your head
You're hanging on, but how much longer
Why do empty things you pour your soul into
Never fill that void in you, makes you wonder
There are shadows hanging over you
I know you wish that you could see beyond
But it's always darkest before the dawn
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
And it only takes a moment to change a life
All of us need is love come see the wonder of
The miracle that happens when we believe
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
It only takes a moment to make us right
We can believe in love
We can be free at the speed of light
I've heard it said the peace of mind that you desire
Is in the power that you acquire
You're moving up, but how much longer
What's the matter if you gain a wealth of gold
But in the process you lose your soul, you have to wonder
There is darkness surrounding you
I hear you pray that you could see the sun
And that's the moment your freedom comes
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
And it only takes a moment to change a life
All of us need is love come see the wonder of
The miracle that happens when we believe
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
It only takes a moment to make us right
We can believe in love
We can be free at the speed of light
Break away, leave the cold night
Steal away from the shadows
Break away, leave the old life
Dance away from the dark
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
And it only takes a moment to change a life
All of us need is love come see the wonder of
The miracle that happens when we believe
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
And it only takes a moment to make us right
We can believe in love
We can be free at the speed of light
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
Only takes a moment to change a life
All of us need is love come see the wonder of
The miracle that happens when we believe
Love at the speed of light comes on the darkest night
And it only takes a moment to make us right
We can believe in love
I look out at the ocean
I don't know where it ends
I look up to the heavens
Where do they begin?
From way down here
My feet stuck on the ground
And the wonders in and around me
Can it be?
You who made the moon
You who made the stars
I cannot express the sum of who You are
You who spoke the word
Living in my heart
I cannot explain it but some how You are
Somehow You are
Peering out my window, feeling pretty small
A perfect cosmic light show
And I know You made it all
It makes it all the harder to wrap my
mind around
How You gave up heaven to be with me
Can it be?
Nothing high or low, above, below
Not anything
Can take that away, away from me
Maybe it?s been too long for me
Maybe I?m too far gone
I?m not looking for sympathy
But I know something?s gotta be wrong
Remind me now what it means to kneel
Get me out of the way
I?m learning still that Your love is real
You?ve proven it?s not a charade
I don?t know how much I can take
Mighty fences are slipping away
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
I?m learning how to live, I?m learning how to love
Now that You?re here slowly showing me how
How do You say the things You say?
Do You really think I can change?
You love me with so much abandon
And You move in me with such grace
I am finally coming awake
Mighty fences are fading away
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
I?m learning how to live, I?m learning how to love
Now that You?re here slowly showing me
What I would be if I never let You in
What I would be if I am giving up my skin
What I would be if I let You in
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
You slowly break me down
You slowly turn me around
I?m learning how to live, I?m learning how to love
Confiscated from the darkness
And placed the palaces of light
You pursued the very part of me
I didn't want to scarifice
No, You're the muse my heart is after
You have won the passion of my sould
No, I find it's me that's chasing You
And I never want to let You go
Oh, Savious love
Lost without my Saviour love
You'll awalsy be the only One
Oh, my Saviour love
I'm in love with Your mystery
And Your supernatual ways
Like when I overstep love's boundary
Only to fall into a bed of grace
Saviour love, I am spellbound
At the very mention of Your name
I was set free when You captured me
And I'll never ever be the same
How I need you
Help me make it
Oh, my Saviour love
When we look at our world today
The beauty has gone and the sky is grey
We don't know, what's going on
This man has brought us a life in chains
His power rules and we cry in pain
Oh Lord, please help us turn down his reign
[chorus:]
The holy land
Go hand in hand
Our prayers will bring joy and freedom
The holy land
Is the only place alive
To live as one
When we look at our children today
They see their world in a different way
We can't let the man... lead them astray
Why destroy our nature each day?
Every tree has a life and it's taken in vain
Take us back to the past, we've got to save...
[chorus]
... is the only place on earth
It's hard to imagine what future will bring
Let freedom prevail and our children sing
Back to our roots, we've got to save...
Hundred centuries
Fell back the sea
When rainfall
Appears on one day
I'll never be the same
I'll never be
I'll never be the same
All the trials
To grow the rice
No raindrops
Are dancing for me
I'll never see the rain
I'll never see
I'll never see the rain
Drop in the ocean of sand
I've never seen the rain
Searching the sea
I'll never be the same
Feeling of liquidity
I've never seen the rain
And I grow blind
Even one event
From heaven sent
Grants flourishing
Season's return
I'll never dry again
I'll never
I'll never dry again
Fate seems to be
Aridity
To clean the eyes
From golden dust
I'll never see the rain
I'll never see
I'll never see the rain
Drop in the ocean of sand
I've never seen the rain
Searching the sea
I'll never be the same
Feeling of liquidity
I've never seen the rain

I take each breath as if it is my first
I hold it there, so deep inside me
'Til I'm about to burst
I speak each word as if it is your name
I move my lips... I see the whisper
Stir the gentle flame
Your heart beats and so does mine
Your love moves
And I know I'm alive
CHORUS
You are my oxygen
I breathe you in
I breathe you out
You are my oxygen
You are my love
You are what life's about
I take each breath as if it is my last
You never know what came so slowly
Could leave us, oh, so fast
I take each step as if it is to lyou
I hear your voice
I feel your presence
In everything I do
My soul sleeps, your love revives
Our hearts meet
And I know I'm alive
The air is thick, the flower sweet
The shadow comes down
Tonight the moon is at my feet
And I breathe you in
I breathe you in
I breathe you in to me
I'm nobody without you
I believe I found the secret everybody's looking for
I found the something that was missing, found my something more
A love that's really real, the only love that's truly true
There's not a moment I don't want to be with You
Every day and every night
Every night I find my way
By the light of Your love
You're like nothing else
And I can't help myself
Whenever we're together
I'm overjoyed over all You do
And my heart is Yours forever
For always I'll be overjoyed over You
Trouble's gonna come and trouble's gonna go, I know it's true
What does it matter, Lord, as long as I can run to You
But for Your grace, where would I be in this crazy life
You give me joy that I could never hide
You're the song in my soul
You make me strong
You make me whole
Lord, I know why I'm here
Now it's coming clear
Now is the season for healing
Deeply we need to see God's mercy revealing
Where we have fallen from His way
For we know He gives hope to the humble
Gives light in the darkness
And grace when we stumble
Let us call on His name together
Knowing He will say
If my people pray
Reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what is spoken
Come and seek my face
Heaven will rain
Rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open
If my people pray
Now is the day to awaken
To pray with conviction for the souls of the nations
So let us call on His name
Who's faithful, the promise still remains
If my people pray
Reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what is spoken
Come and seek my face
Heaven will rain
Rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open
If my people pray
Let us not grow weary as we wait for the day
When the light turns the night into morning
On our knees, calling Your name
As we lift our hearts to Heaven, yeah, knowing You will say
If my people pray
Reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what is spoken
Come and seek my face
Heaven will rain
Rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open
Who here among us has not been broken
Who here among us is without guilt or pain
So oft' abandoned by our transgressions
If such a thing as grace exists
Then grace was made for lives like this
Chorus
There are no strangers
There are no outcasts
There are no orphans of God
So many fallen, but hallelujah
There are no orphans of God
Come ye unwanted and find affection
Come all ye weary, come and lay down
your head
Come ye unworthy, you are my brother
If such a thing as grace exists
Then grace was made for lives like this
CHORUS
O blessed Father, look down upon us
We are Your children, we need Your love
We run before Your throne of mercy
My Jesus, I love Thee, I know Thou art mine;
For Thee all the follies of sin I resign;
My gracious Redeemer, my Savior art Thou;
If ever I love Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
I love Thee because Thou hast first loved me,
And purchased my pardon on Calvary's tree;
I love Thee for wearing the thorns on Thy brow;
(Oh my saviour) If ever I love Thee, my Jesus, 'tis now.
It is now (if ever I love my Saviour, 'tis now etc)
It is now (if ever I love my Saviour, 'tis now)
In mansions of glory and endless delight,
I'll ever adore Thee in heaven so bright;
I'll sing with the glittering crown on my brow,
Can you feel it
It's like a thunder
Something moving like an echo through your heart
Do you hear it
A voice is calling
Out of nowhere through the noise to where you are
You can't ignore it
You're created for it
CHORUS
Do you wanna fly
There's a higher high
Just this side of heaven
Brings you to your knees
Brings you back to life
You can make it last forever
It's like adrenaline
Rushing through you
It can make your heartbreak jump right off the chart
Like a fire
It consumes you
And in a second it can saturate the dark
You're in the movement
Before you even know it
You can't search the world forever
But you'll never find love better
No, you'll never, ever, never
You tell me that you think you get too far from heaven,
You think you're out of reach from these arms of love.
Why would someone stay around, after all the things you've done?
Remember I'm the king of the broken hearted,
I've always been a friend to the wounded soul.
Yes, I've walked this world, I know, Just how deep the pain can go.
Oh yeah.
I will always love you, can't you see.
Well just look into my eyes and believe.
CHORUS
When the sky opens up rain on you, I'll be there with open arms to cover you. Don't give up now, There's nothing that I wouldn't do, Never Givin'
up on you. Never Givin' up, Never Givin' up, Never givin' up, Never Givin' up.
You don't need to fear, I won't ever leave you.
I have been beside you all this time.
Through you silence and your tears, you've always been a child of mine.
There's a new day dawning, can't you see?
Just open up your heart and believe.
CHORUS
When the sky opens up rain on you, I'll be there with open arms to cover you. Don't give up now, There's nothing that I wouldn't do, Never Givin'
Into the darkness where your journey ends in fear
Annihilation of humanity can't save you here
All the creations of former generations
Prowess of destruction is a deadly trade
Your bloodstained hands, your ruthless friends
Never resting until resistance fades
[chorus:]
The time has come to pay for your sins
Or you'll walk through the fire
Just yield control and leave us alone
Our burning souls
Why can't you realise? Why must we live in pain?
Why threaten children and spill blood in vain?
Your attitude of hatred can never claim success
We'll carry on to spoil your vicious game
I think I caught you just in time
I caught you trying to survive
Broken pieces in your heart, never mend
But every hope youve ever had
Can breathe again
Love wont leave you empty-handed
Broken down and somewhere stranded
Love wont leave you hanging on for life
Cause love is
Love is always true
God is love
And love wont leave you
I wanna say youll be okay
Always doing things the hard way
Living paralyzed by fear
But you know
You can let it go today
And save tomorrow
Love is gonna free your mind
Love is gonna steal your pride
And even though the hard times come
Love is gonna make things right
I think I caught you just in time
I can hear You calling
In a whisper You say so much
In a dream I'm falling
But I awaken within Your love
And I find You waiting
I find You, arms stretching open
My will is breaking
Lord, I've had enough, I'm giving it up
So let Your love
Take my heart make it strong
Take my life from now on
I'm running out of hope, running out of strength
So let Your love take over me
I have been unchanging
I have seen my world spinning by
Only You can save me
From the foolishness of my pride
So come find me waiting
Come find me, heart reaching upward
My will is fading
Lord, I've had enough, I'm giving me up
So let Your love
Take my heart make it strong
Take my life from now on
I'm running out of hope, running out of strength
So let Your love take over me
So let Your love
Take my heart make it strong
Take my life from now on
I'm running out of hope, running out of strength
So let Your love take over me
In a dream I'm falling
Come find me waiting
Come and make me strong
Come and lead me on
Come set my heart free
Come and take me over
So let Your love
Take my heart make it strong
Take my life from now on
I'm running out of hope, running out of strength
So let Your love take over me
In a world of broken hears, love is just a word
Used so often, what is means is blurred
People grow so hungry for a love they can believe
Will they findi it here in you and me
Oh you you must be care
If it's love you're promising
You can never, never, ever speak lightly
It should cost you everything
If you're gonna call it love
Oh, then let it be forever
Oh, then let it be forever
Love has come from God and in this love we share
People see an image of Him there
It can be an invitation that leads to deeper truth
The kind of love they find in me and you
Oh, but we can be a witness
Right before thier eyes
A living love that's rooted in
The very love of Christ
I don't know what this world may think of love
Oh, but let our hearts remain true
To the notion that love goes beyond just emotion
He is on his way
Longing for comfort
To lead him through the day
But the only thing in life
Is the freedom to survive
Believe in the power
Of the will
A matter of survival
For the lord of dignity
The warlord over darkness
He is superior
The lord of the dignity
He is ready for the fight
He is superior
The lord of the dignity
So come along
And join the crowd
To praise the lord
Of the dignity
And then it starts to rain
It can't erase the pain
Of feeling so alone
In this world without hope
On a long and winding road
Becomes their glorious
Walk of fame
A matter of survival
For the lord of dignity
The warlord over darkness
He is superior
The lord of the dignity
He is ready for the fight
He is superior
The lord of the dignity
So come along
And join the crowd
To praise the lord
Today a child is born on earth

For all of the world

For the sunlight on my face
For giving me another day, oh, to breathe
For sending down the rain
To remind me of the ways I need You
There are no words to say thank You
For all You've done
Jesus
Son of God who walked the earth
To feel my pain and give me worth
I praise You
Jesus
Holy One who took my sin
Who shed His blood and rose again
I love You
Jesus
For Your mercy in my life
When I deserve to die
You took my place
For cleansing every part
Of the places in my heart
Where there was shame

Jesus
I hide me far away from trouble
The world outside me grows darker by the day
So I promise to stay here close beside You
Surely God would want His children safe
Then in reading, how my eyes were opened
I find that He is leading us out into the world
Into the middle of fallen saints and sinners
Where a little grace is needed most
Come take the Light to darker parts
Share His truth with hardened hearts
We are not like the world, but we can love it
Come bring the hope to hopeless men
Until the lost are found in Him
He came to save the world so let us be. . .
In it, not of it
Wait a minute
If we say we love them, why are we not in it
Why we run and hide
Entertain a stranger
Maybe entertain an angel
The danger is if our worlds don't colide
We've cursed the darkness far too long
We need to hold the candle high
We have to go and right the wrongs
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true, oh yeah
There were so many people who have walked this earth
Thinking that they know the truth
And they often criticize the way I believe
And they say, "Tell me, tell me where is your proof?"
I tell them Jesus was wounded for my transgressions
He was bruised for my iniquities
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
He walked upon the water, oh yes He did
And this same Jesus calmed the raging sea
He healed a man that was lame one day, oh yes He did
And from sinking sand He lifted me
Oh, but He was wounded for my transgressions
And He was bruised for my iniquities
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
They're gonna know that it's true
Jesus, He was sent from the Father
Jesus, the great Messiah
Jesus, He's bread for the hungry
Jesus, and He's water for the thirsty
Jesus, He's a Friend to the friendly
Jesus, and hope to the hopeless

Ever knee shall bow, every tongue confess
That Jesus is Lord, that Jesus is Lord

That Jesus is Lord, that Jesus is Lord
Bow down, bow down, bow down
Bow down, bow down, bow down
Bow down, bow down, bow down

Some can write a sonnet to describe in silvery words
The rising and the setting of the sun
Some can paint a picture in shades of vibrant color
It almost looks like heaven when they're done
(Lord, when I try to speak from my heart)
Lord, when I try to speak from my heart
(I don't know where to start)
I don't know where to start
When it comes to You I'm speechless
Nothing holds a candle to the wonder of Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace, Your forgiving embrace
And I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless
I've tried to write the song
I've searched my heart for phrases
But they only catch a glimpse of all You are
If I lived a thousand lifetimes
I'd never come close to saying
Enough about the hope that I found in Your arms
('Cause when I try to speak from my heart)
'Cause when I try to speak from my heart
(I don't know where to start)
I don't know where to start
When it comes to You I'm speechless
Nothing holds a candle to the wonder of Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace, Your forgiving embrace
And I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless
And when I see the setting of the sun
I can't find the words, there'll never be enough
I'm speechless, speechless at the wonders of Your love
When it comes to You I'm speechless
Nothing holds a candle to the wonder of Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace, Your forgiving embrace
And I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless
When it comes to You, I'm speechless
(Speechless)
Nothing, no one, compares to Your love
I'm amazed by Your grace, Your forgiving embrace
(Your amazing grace)
Ooh, I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm finding words could never be enough
I'm speechless, I'm speechless
And I'm finding words could never, never be enough
La, la, la, la
I'm finding words could never, never be enough
La, la, la, la
(I'm speechless)
And I'm finding words could never, never be enough
La, la, la, la
(I'm speechless)
I'm finding words could never, never be enough
La, la, la, la
I can feel it comin' now, that same old pain
Tryin' to work me like a prisoner
Shackled bound and shamed
But in my soul I know
That You give me the strength it takes to
break these chains
I survive
Life keeps comin' at me
Doesn't break me
I'm never going down
Anytime
I need strength I know You'll help me
make it
I survive
Don't know what tomorrow brings
Don't wann guess
But with You by my side I know I can face
any test
And so I'll honor You by stnading tall
And breathing in this love that I've been blessed
That's my promise, won't compimise
You're the truth, that kills the lies
Put me through it , I'm not afraid
You rescue me , day by day
With you I can never fake it
Won't go down, You help me take it
You changed my world,
When you came to me,
You drove a passion,
In my soul down deep.
Lord, to follow you in everything,
CHORUS:
I don't want to go somewhere,
If I know that your not there,
Cause I know that me without you,
Is a lie.
I don't want to walk that road,
Be a million miles from home,
Cause my heart needs to be,
Where you are,
So I don't want to go.
So come whatever,
I'll stick with you,
I'll walk, you lead me,
Call me crazy or a fool.
For forever I promise you that:
(Chorus)
Without your touch,
Without your love,
Filling me like an ocean,
For your grace is enough,
Enough for me,
To never want to go somewhere,
If I know that your not there.
Now is the season for healing
Deeply we need to see
God's mercy revealing
Where we have fallen from His way
For we know he gives hope to the humble
Gives the light in the darkness and grace when we stumble
Let us call on His name together
Knowing He will say
If my people pray and reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what I've spoken come and seek my face
And Heaven will rain, rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open, if my people pray
Now is the day to awaken
To pray with conviction for the souls of the nation
So let us call on His name who's faithful
Promise still remains
If my people pray and reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what I've spoken come and seek my face
And Heaven will rain, rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open, if my people pray
Let us not grow weary as we wait for the day
When the light turns the night into morning
On our knees, calling Your name as we lift our hearts to Heaven, yeah
Knowing you will say
If my people pray and reach for me with hearts that are broken
I will not forget what I've spoken, no no, come and seek my face
And Heaven will rain, rivers of my grace overflowing
Night and day my ears will be open, if my people pray
Night and day my ears will be open, if my people pray
Call me, I'll hear your cry
I'm as close as a prayer
And I'm here to deliver
Saw you standing on the corner
Of the street that turns to doubt
What were you doing?
Does the running from the questions
That pursue you, wear you out?
What are you proving?
You're searching and seeking
You're reaching
You're needing a Savior
Call me, I'll hear your cry
I'm as close as a prayer
And I'm here to deliver
Don?t need to ask me twice
'Cause I'm here to deliver you
Is it true that you are everywhere
But where you want to be
Caught in the fire?
Are you looking for a love
That will finally set you free
Is that your desire?
Keep asking and seeking
You're knocking
You're needing a Savior
Call me, I'll hear your cry
I'm as close as a prayer
And I'm here to deliver
Don?t need to ask me twice
'Cause I'm here to deliver
Deliver my love
Call me, if you?re in need
I'm as close as a prayer
And I'm here to deliver
Don't have to beg or plead
'Cause I'm here to deliver you
It?s gonna be alright, ya
Gonna be alright now, you?ll see
It?s gonna be alright, ya
Gonna be alright, with me
Keep asking and seeking
Keep knocking
You're needing a Savior
Call me, I'll hear your cry
I'm as close as a prayer
And I'm here to deliver
Don?t need to ask me twice
'Cause I'm here to deliver
Traffic noise, expensive toys
A love that never lasts
Broken homes and self-made thrones
We're livin' life too fast
That we forget the things that his love brings
Beyond what this world is
I can hear it still today, what the preacher used to say
This is how you live, you've got to
Believe in your heart, right down to your soul
And speak the true things and know that you know
'Cause this might be the day, so live like it is
Find the good way and walk in it, walk on
Saints of old and streets of gold
Will gaze upon His throne
Singin' holy, holy God of glory
We'll worship Him alone
So keep your eye on the sky, while it's all passing by
This world is not our home
'Cause someday soon, we're gonna be made new
But until' then you've got to
Believe in your heart, right down to your soul
And speak the true things and know that you know
'Cause this might be the day, so live like it is
Find the good way and walk in it
Believe in your heart, right down to your soul
And speak the true things and know that you know
'Cause this might be the day, so live like it is
Find the good way and walk in it, walk on
Take a look around, the world is falling down
Why can't we see that it's almost over?
The clouds are rollin' in
He's gonna break the sky the dead are gonna rise
Those who are alive in Him will fly, will fly
Find, find the good way
Find, find the good way
Believe in your heart, right down to your soul
And speak the true things and know that you know
'Cause this might be the day, so live like it is
Find the good way and walk in it
Believe in your heart, right down to your soul
And speak the true things and know that you know
'Cause this might be the day, so live like it is
I'm looking for a sign
To show me how
To cross the distance
And leave this all behind
I want to run
But there's no motion here
Just lifeless moments
Locked outside
And all that's left are tears
To cool the sun
Everything is gray
Tell me is there such a place
Where hearts are never broken
Dreams don't die
Souls are never searching
Crying out for a reason why
And love is everlasting
A place where there are no more fears
Far away from here
Will you reach out to me
Pull me through
A world of sorrow
To where I'm meant to be
From dark to light
Oh, where there is no more gray
Oh, tell me, please tell me is there such a place
I want to go far away from here
I want to go far away from here
I want to fly far away from here
Far away, far away
Far away from here
Dreams will never
Dreams will never die
Souls will never ever wonder why
Here I am with nothing left to say
How can I even speak?
All my dreams life scattered
Like ashes beneath my feet
Can you see the pain behind the smiles
The tears run down my face
Will the sun ever shine on me again?
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
I will hide my soul in Jesus
I will rest my heart in Him
When the storms of life rush over me
I will not let them in
There will be no pain in heaven
But for now and until then
I will hide my soul in Jesus
Now I know there's nothing I can do
Nothing that I can say
You alone are the anchor of my soul
Don't let me slip away
Can You see all the pain behind my smile
The tears run down my face?
Will the sun ever shine on me again?
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
I will hide my soul in Jesus
I will rest my heart in Him
When the storms of life rush over me
I will not let them in
There will be no pain in heaven
But for now and until then
I will hide my soul in Jesus
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
Where can I hide?
I will hide my soul in Jesus
I will rest my heart in Him
When the storms of life rush over me
I will not let them in
There will be no pain in heaven
But for now and until then
I will hide my soul
I will hide my soul in Jesus
Hide my soul
No pain, no pain in heaven
In heaven
I will hide my soul in Jesus
Somewhere a trumpet sounds in the night
A soldier is standing there
It's calling him out to the stars and the stripes
It's calling him God knows where
He kisses the ones he loves goodbye
And leaves in the dead of night
For freedom he'll heed the call
Leave all he knows
For freedom he'll stand and fight
And somewhere a man and wife can't believe
They're waving their girl goodbye
For gone are the days of pigtails and curls
and candlelit lullabies
If they had their way she'd stay young forever
And never be far from home
But freedom has drawn her heart
To danger's shore
And for freedom they'll let her go
And somewhere a thunderous crash in the night
It echoes all through the hills
Though many escape
It's wrath and it's rage
A soldier lies wounded still
Remembering the land he loves
He cries
I loved you with all my might
For freedom said I'm her son
Whatever comes
And for freedom I'll say goodbye
Oh and somewhere beneath the stars and the sky
Our flag is still standing there
She bled and she brought one land under God
Her colors still lead us there
She's carried the lives of those before us
She's buried the bold and brave
For freedom she holds our hopes
And hands up high
Some say it's rules and regulations
And trying to always be right
No room for mistakes in the choices we make
For only the strong survive
But it's not about perfect performance
Or resolution of will
It's all about surrender
Giving up, being still
It's only for the weak
For the faint of heart
Those driven to their knees
Those who live with scars
There's power from beyond
We're certain where it's from
And that's our source of strength
Before we follow Christ
We need to be advised
It's only for the weak
He welcomes the worn and the weary
All who are wounded by sin
And just as we are, we can fall in his arms
Rest and find shelter in him
Seems like each day is a battle
With burdens and struggles to face
Only in our losing
Do we really see how much we've gained?
It's only for the weak
For the faint of heart
Those driven into their knees
Those who live with scars
There's power from beyond
We're certain where it's from
And that's our source of strength
Before we follow Christ
We need to be advised
It's only for the weak
The father always starts
Within a willing heart
Open to how he moves
[Incomprehensible] his spirit is poured
He will do so much more
Than we dreamed he could do
It's only for the weak
For the faint of heart
Those driven into their knees
Those who live with scars
There's power from beyond
We're certain where it's from
And that's our source of strength
Before we follow Christ
We need to be advised
It's only for the weak
For the faint of heart
Those driven to their knees
Those who live with scars
There's power from beyond
We're certain where it's from
And that's our source of strength
Oh, before we follow Christ
We need to be advised
It's only for the weak
Only for the weak
Only for the weak
(Only for, only for the week, yeah)
(Only for, only for the week, yeah)
(Only for, only for the week, yeah)
