In physical geography, a lowland is any broad expanse of land with a general low level. The term is thus applied to the landward portion of the upward slope from oceanic depths to continental highlands, to a region of depression in the interior of a mountainous region, to a plain of denudation, or to any region in contrast to a highland. The Lowlands and Highlands of Scotland are typical.

System of a Down, also known by the acronym SOAD and often shortened to System, is a rock band from Southern California, formed in 1994. It consists of Serj Tankian (lead vocals, keyboards, rhythm guitar), Daron Malakian (guitar, vocals), Shavo Odadjian (bass, background vocals) and John Dolmayan (drums).
The band achieved commercial success with the release of five studio albums; from which three debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. System of a Down has been nominated for four Grammy Awards, and won the award in 2006 for Best Hard Rock Performance for the song "B.Y.O.B.". The group went on hiatus in August 2006, but reunited in November 2010, embarking on a worldwide tour in 2011.
Serj Tankian, Daron Malakian, and Shavo Odadjian all attended Rose and Alex Pilibos Armenian School while children, although because of their eight-year age difference they did not meet until 1992 while working on separate projects at the same recording studio. They formed a band named Soil with Tankian on vocals and keyboards, Malakian on vocals and guitar, Dave Hakopyan (who later played in The Apex Theory/Mt. Helium) on bass and Domingo "Dingo" Laranio on drums. The band hired Shavo Odadjian (another Rose and Alex Pilibos alumnus) as manager, although he eventually joined Soil as rhythm guitarist. After three years, only one live show, and one jam session recording, Hakopyan and Laranio quit the band, feeling that it was not going anywhere.
Wounded and forsaken
I was shattered by the fall
Broken and forgotten
Feeling lost and all alone
Summoned by the King
Into the Master's courts
Lifted by the Savior
And cradled in His arms
I was carried to the table
Seated where I don't belong
Carried to the table
Swept away by His love
And I don't see my brokenness anymore
When I'm seated at the table of the Lord
I'm carried to the table
The table of the Lord
Fighting thoughts of fear
Wondering why He called my name
Am I good enough to share this cup
This world has left me lame
Even in my weakness
The Savior called my name
In His Holy presence
I'm healed and unashamed
You carried me, my God
I'd give myself to find You
Stumble and fall to see You
You're worth it all
To me You are
I'd swim across the stormy seas
And scream it from the mountain peaks
You're worth it all
To me You are
(And I said)
Hey You're the one
That I've been looking for
And I found You here
And I found You here
Thinking back on all the times
I passed You by with blinded eyes
I thought that I
Would be just fine
Tripping over all my lies
I saw you there with no disguise
You're worth it all
To me You are
Do you see my celebration
For this open invitation to Your arms, Your arms
It's a beautiful fixation
You can look in your head and find no answer
You can look in your heart and find no hope
And you can crawl on the ocean floor
Searching for the silver pearl
But you won't find the treasure in this world
You can lift your eyes
Come on to the cross
There is healing for all who come
You can look at the stars and make no sense of it
(Staring at the sky)
You can search your soul and find no light
Until you look in the Savior's eyes
And then you finally realize
The saving sacrifice is love divine
Come on and lift your eyes
Lift your eyes, come to the cross
All these places I have been
All these faces I have seen
Too much, too much
All these bricks and all these stones
Have all been cast they've all been thrown
Too hard, too hard
Find me in the background looking down
You'll never see my face
I'm looking down
I need a place a sanctuary
A refuge for my ordinary
Finally familiar peaceful home
Untroubled safe from all this madness
Refuge for my hope and sadness
Possible to find myself alone
At home
All these cliffs and all these heights
They've just been too high to climb
Too high, too high
All these waves and all these seas
Have all been crashing down on me
Too much, too much
I've found my home again
I finally find myself in You
I finally find myself in You
I feel safe again
You're the one I'm running to
We who were called to be Your people
Struggling sinners and thieves
We're lifted up from the ashes
And out came the song of the redeemed
The song of the redeemed
The song of the redeemed
Can you hear the sound of melodies
Oh, the sound of melodies
Rising up to You
Rising up to You, God
The sound of melodies
Oh, the sound of melodies
Rising up to You
Rising up to You, God
We have caught a revelation
That nothing can separate us from
The love we received through salvation
It fills your daughters and your sons
Your daughters and your sons
The sound of Your love
The sound of Your love
Is what You're hearing
The sound of Your sons
The sound of Your sons
You've won Your children
The sound of Your love
The sound of Your love
Is what You're hearing
Your daughters in love
Your daughters in love
You've won your children
The sound of melodies
Oh, the sound of melodies
Rising up to You
I can't believe You're here close to me
It's getting hard to stand
But I don't want to leave
Your beauty stands out
Like a bright light shining through the clouds
It's overwhelming just to be with You now
I can't stop, I can't stop falling in love with You
I can't stop, I can't stop falling in love with You
Your love is in my heart tonight (yes, I know)
I can't stop, I can't stop falling in love with You
I'm in love with You
In this space and time
You touch my soul
I can't escape Your love for me
So You take control
Your spirit surrounds me
Close enough to catch me when I fall
I can't escape Your love for me
I surrender all
You've risen like the sun
Darkness fades with the dawn
You are the radiant one
And You give me light
Your love is in my heart tonight
Your love is in my heart tonight
I can't stop, I can't stop falling in love with You
One man wakes, awakens another
Second one wakes his next door bother
Three awake can rouse a town
Turn the whole place upside down
Many awake will cause such a fuss
It finally awakes the rest of us
One man wakes with dawn in his eyes
Surely then it multiplies
Surely then it multiplies
Here in this place
With humbleness and brokenness
We seek all You are
We seek You
And it's for You
It's all for You
We're leaping over walls to get to You
Would You pull us along
Pull us home
We are
We are reaching
We are reaching out
(And we're calling for You, Lord)
We're caught up in this hunger
Searching for Your heart
(And we're calling for You, Lord)
Here on this earth
We lift our eyes to the stars
We seek all You are
We seek You
And it's for You
It's all for you
We're breaking off our chains to run to You
Would you fill our hearts
Oh, fill our songs
Leaving the lights on, the lights on
We wait for you
This won't be the last song, the last song
We sing to you
We are
We are reaching
We are reaching out
He traded His crown for a crown of thorns,
He picked up His cross and laid down His sword.
He stumbled down the road, bruised and beaten for me,
Jesus walked the way of grief, hallelujah.
On the Via Dolorosa
All my sin was carried away.
And the power of Hell was broken
As He gave His life away.
He knew it was to come from the very start,
But His love for all the world beat inside His heart.
He climbed the road of suffering to the hill of Cavalry,
Where the saints would be redeemed, hallelujah.
On the Via Dolorosa
All my sin was carried away.
And the power of Hell was broken
As He gave His life away.
Jesus fixed His eyes upon the new horizon,
Soon He would rise and the world would be forgiven.
[x2]
Hallelujah, Jesus rose again.
On the cross He shed His blood on Calvary,
And I'm thankful for the journey of my King.
On the Via Dolorosa
All my sin was carried away.
And the power of Hell was broken
As He gave His life away.
Oh, as He gave His life away.
He's coming for a pure bride. [x2]
See Him riding in the skies,
See the fire inside His eyes.
Through the darkness His light will shine,
In His glory, He's lifted high.
He's coming for a pure bride. [x3]
See Him riding in the skies,
See the fire inside His eyes.
Through the darkness His light will shine,
In His glory, He's lifted high.
He's coming for a pure bride.
The Lord is coming for His bride,
Make way for the Lord.
He's clothing all His children in white,
Make way for the Lord.
[x2]
Make way for the Lord.
What are you doing when no one is watching?
What are you doing?
Children get your hearts right,
God's coming for a pure bride.
Standing at the gate of love
Waiting for the life of the Son
To follow me 'til I am undone
Oh, you pulled me out of the mud
Up from the miry clay
You washed all my sins away
I've been redeemed
I am a new creation
I have been born again
I'm here in the world
But my home is in a heavenly place
Far above the stars out in space
I'm not afraid
Death where is your sting
Hell will never conquer me
A love pure and holy
Has set me free
And I am a new creation
I have been born again
I am a new creation
I have been born again
For behold! The old has passed away!
There's a hole inside of me
And I'll never run away from you!
Anymore, anymore
I am a new creation
I have been born again
I am a new creation
I have been born again
The old has passed away and the new has come!
I am a new creation
Long after the tears fall I'm still your child
I put down my defenses and lay down my pride
Love and forgiveness flow in deep and wide
So I run to you and surrender all!
As I lay down my life
And pick up my cross
What a joy it is to give my life away to you
All that I need,
All that I seek
Is You here with me
Holy Spirit have Your way in me!
In times of trouble, though trials may come
The rock of ages is standing strong
I'm fighting battles, but the war is won
So I'll run to you and surrender all
As I lay down my life
And pick up my cross
What a joy it is to give my life away to you
All that I need,
All that I seek
Is You here with me
Holy Spirit have Your way in me!
More of You and less of me, God
More of You and less of me, God
More of You and less of me, God
More of You overflowing
As I lay down my life
And pick up my cross
What a joy it is to give my life away to you
All that I need,
All that I seek
Is You here with me
Holy Spirit have Your way in me!
On the corner of Fifth Street,
The homeless man needs to eat
On the edge of town
Lost his family long ago
Nobody even knows
They all just pass him by
But love is on the move,
revealing heaven's truth!
love is on it's way and it will find him
In a high rise building,
The rich man has everything
But the letter has reached his sin
Hasn't talked to his kids on weeks,
He and his wife don't even speak
Nobody even knows
But love is on the move
Revealing heaven's truth
Love is on it's way and it will find him
Anyone can run
Into the arms of God
Love is on it's way and it will find you
And all the world cries for healing
The deepest longing for the love of God
And oh! The greatest mystery,
Love has come to save us
In the little quiet town
The Hope of the world was found
Under the night sky
He died and rose again
The Sacrifice that conquered sin
And now are his feet, his hands
Love is on the move
Revealing Heavens truth
Love is on it's way and it will find you
And anyone can run
Into the arms of God
Love is on it's way and it will find you
Oh anyone can run
Into the arms of God
Love is on it's way and it will find you
It will find you!
We're living to fast
Caught up in satisfaction
We're missing so much
Don't even know we're disconnected
But Where is the love that makes us stronger
Binds the hearts of every color
In the end we are all God's children
We gotta Learn To Love
Need action for resolution
We need a revolution
Need to come close to each other
one love of sisters and brother
But Where is the love that makes us stronger
Binds the hearts of every color
In the end we are all God's children
We gotta Learn To
Pray for each other
stand in together
we'll see his kingdom come
shinning like the sun
Something is stirring
A new day is calling
Jesus Is the king
We lift our voice and sing
But Where is the love that makes us stronger
Binds the hearts of every color
In the end we are all God's children
We gotta Learn To Love
In the end we are all God's children
We gotta Learn To Love
Lifting hands in song and dance
Humbled by the glory of the cross
We've been redeemed and reconciled
Caught up in the splendor of it all
Eternal life You gave
So we will bring song of praise
How wonderful
How lovely is Your name
You captivate our hearts
You save us by Your grace
God of mercy, God of love
How we marvel at Your majesty
As we kneel before Your holy throne
In the beauty of Your mystery
We are children of the King
Father, of Your love we sing
And You are
Closer than a brother, Jesus
Closer than a brother, Jesus
Oh, the name of Jesus
Oh, the name of Jesus
Even heroes fall down
And mountains won't last forever
But Your promise never fails
When the ocean is raging
I find stillness in Your presence
And I lift my voice to say
'Jesus take me away!
Carry me on your back
Through the storm, Lord!
Carry me on your back
Through the storm, Lord!'
When the furnace is burning
I know rescue is coming
Your promise never fails
In the darkness Your light shines
Breaking over the horizon
And I lift my eyes to see
Heaven's fighting for me
'Carry me on your back
Through the storm, Lord!
Carry me on your back
Through the storm, Lord!'
Waking up in the arms of love
I'll be singing, singing a new song
Waking up in the arms of love
I'll be singing, singing a new song
Carry me on your back
Through the storm, Lord!
Carry me on your back
Time keeps moving on
Through the sunshine and the storm
And my dreams are set in stone
And someday I?ll be who I wanna be
For now I?ll wait
For the sun to shine again
And for now I?ll wait
For the rain to pass away
And I?m looking for the brighter days
When all my hurts seem to fade away
I?m looking for the brighter days
To come my way
Faces come and faces go
But none seem to look my way
And walls have stood and walls have fallen
But my heart seems to wait
For now I'll sit
At the end of the road
And for now I?ll wait
At the end of a pathway, yeah, yeah
See, and I'm looking for the brighter days
When all my hurts seem to fade away
And I?m looking for the brighter days
To come my way
I?ll see the sun one day shine upon me
I?ll see the sun one day
And watch the nighttime turn to morning
But for now it all comes back around
And I?m looking for the brighter days
When all my hurts seem to fade away
Now I?m looking for the brighter days
To come my way
I?m looking for the brighter days
We are saved in a world that?s lost
All our hope rests in Your Cross
God of strength, our weakness shows
We need You, we need You, Lord
Father, enter this temple
Come touch Your people

Out of darkness into light
I know that I will be alright
Here inside Your hands
I never wanna stray too far
Just wanna be where You are
Here inside Your plan
And You?re the center of
The beginning & the end
And I place my life inside Your hands
You hold for me a perfect plan
And You are the beginning & the end
Everything that I?ve done wrong
Put You there on that cross
Where nails drove in Your hands
A crown of thorns deep in Your brow
I never knew it until now
It was all Your plan
God, You?ve always been
The beginning & the end
And I place my life inside Your hands
You hold for me a perfect plan
And You are the beginning & the end
And I place my life inside Your hands
You hold for me a perfect plan
And You are the beginning & the end
Singin?
You have plans for me
You?ve given me a hope and a future
You have plans for me
(I place my life inside your hands)
You?ve given me a hope and a future
(You hold for me a perfect plan)
When the storm is raging all around me
You are the peace that calms
My troubled sea
And when the cares of this world
Darken my day
You are the light that shines
And shows me the way
Oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me!
Beautiful Lord
Awesome and mighty
I'm captured by this love I see
Beautiful Lord
Tender and holy
Your mercy brings me to my knees
It's Your mercy that has made me free
Beautiful Lord
When my sin is all that I can see
Your grace remains the shelter that I seek
And when my weakness is all I can give
Your gentle Spirit gives me strength again
And oh, the beauty of Your majesty
On the cross You showed Your love for me
And I am lifted by Your love to sing!
It's Your mercy that has made me free!
You're beautiful, my Lord

Forgot my past
And brought me back again
So I'll sing Your praise
I'll sing Your praise, yeah
If I ascend into the sky
Or hide behind the night

There are many prodigal sons
On our city streets they run
Searching for shelter
There are homes broken down
People's hopes have fallen to the ground
From failures
This is an emergency!
There are tears from the saints
For the lost and unsaved
We're crying for them come back home
We're crying for them come back home
And all your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Father, we will lead them home
There are schools full of hatred
Even churches have forsaken
Love and mercy
May we see this generation
In it's state of desperation
For Your glory
This is an emergency!
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
Sinner, reach out your hands!
Children in Christ you stand!
And all Your children will stretch out their hands
And pick up the crippled man
Father, we will lead them home
Here on the bank I stand.
But in the water is the hope of man.
Unclean, I fall before You now.
Jesus, come wash me inside out.

The weary and the weak,
And it would be a tragedy for me to turn away.

How could I not give it away so freely?
And I'll follow you into the homes of the broken,
Follow you into the world.
Meet the needs for the poor and the needy, God.
Follow you into the World.
Use my hands, use my feet,
To make your kingdom come,
To the corners of the earth,
Until your work is done.
Cause Faith without works is dead,
And on the cross your blood was shed.

First comes salvation, then comes obsession
Fire starts with a flicker, and it consumes me
Suddenly I feel I can follow You blindly

From our lives to Your ears, Father, yeah
May our praise be all that You can hear
Wounded and forsaken
I was shattered by the fall
Broken and forgotten
Feeling lost and all alone
Summoned by the King
Into the Master's courts
Lifted by the Savior
And cradled in His arms
I was carried to the table
Seated where I don't belong
Carried to the table
Swept away by His love
And I don't see my brokenness anymore
When I'm seated at the table of the Lord
I'm carried to the table
The table of the Lord
Fighting thoughts of fear
And wondering why He called my name
Am I good enough to share this cup
This world has left me lame
Even in my weakness
The Savior called my name
In His Holy presence
I'm healed and unashamed
You carried me, my God
Oh, holy God, You are the melody
The cry that's ringing out of my heart
I came to life the day You died
My sin and shame were crucified on the cross
All that was lost I found in You
And I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
Holy are You, Lord
One true God, You met me in my nakedness
And covered me with love
My brokenness I lay before Your righteousness
In glory I am renewed, loved by You, holy Father
And I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
Holy are You, Lord
I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
Holy are You, Lord
We're singing now
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You
Holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You, Lord
Holy, holy, holy, holy are You
Holy are You, Lord
Oh, I will sing unending songs
And I will sing unending songs
I will sing unending songs
Holy are You, Lord
Holy are You, Lord
I'm holding on to you
It's all I know to do
When fear has had me bound
When the enemies so loud
There's freedom in this truth
My salvation is in you
And I remember the nails You took for me
When You died in my shame and iniquity
Jesus You've set me free
The thorns of my pain You wore in a crown
When you bowed Your head
Your love was poured out
And my chains hit the ground
You are the rock I've found
Above the shifting ground
Amid a raging war your the One I'm fighting for
For all of my years
My banner will be cleared
I am yours
And even though the waves
They crashed below
I'm holding on to love
I'm holding on to love
I am yours
Forever all my days I lay before Your Holy love
I feel Your lightning
Waking me up from the sleep of my timid soul
I've been in hiding
From all Your plans, Your commands that told me to go
And I've spent all my life
Keeping my head down
But I'm lifting up my eyes
I raise my flag up high, my flag up high
I'm not afraid anymore
'Cause I am running with Your fire, Lord
I'm picking up my sword
You train my hands and my fingers for war
I'm not afraid anymore
I hear the trumpet
Ringing out in these streets where kingdoms collide
So I'm responding
This is a fight for love, this is death or life
And when my knees are weak
I know Your hands are strong
And they are holding me
I'll never be alone, never be alone
I'm not afraid anymore
'Cause I am running with Your fire, Lord
I'm picking up my sword
You train my hands and my fingers for war
I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not afraid anymore, hey
You're chasing my fears away
There's no reason to be afraid
Your love is here, chasing my fears away
I'm not afraid anymore
'Cause I am running with Your fire, Lord
I'm picking up my sword
You train my hands and my fingers for war
I'm not afraid anymore
'Cause I am running with Your fire, Lord
I'm picking up my sword
You train my hands and my fingers for war
I'm not afraid anymore, I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not afraid anymore, hey
You said I wouldn’t be lonely and in defeat
You wouldn’t leave me as an orphan
No matter where I go, I’m caught in the flow
Of Your never-ending fountain
I feel You everywhere
I breathe You in the air
Oh God, come and take me over
From my head to my toes
Holy Ghost, fill me up
From my head to my toes
Holy Ghost, fill me up
You said that I would do greater things than You
But I’ll never make it on my own
‘Cause You are the power in me
My strength when I am weak
Oh God, come and take me over
I will never be forsaken
No, I will never be forsaken
No matter where I go
I’m lost in the flow
No matter where I go, Lord
I’m lost in Your flow
Living in the same town for all these years
Doing the same old things
Hanging with the same crowd
And it?s starting to get crippling
You?ve never felt in place
And you tell yourself it?s all okay
But something?s different today
You want to run the opposite way
And it seems like you?re locked in a cage
And you need to find a way of escape
When everyone is setting the pace
It?s okay to run the opposite way
The Father sent His Son down
The light of men
The cross He bore was crippling
Rejected in His own town
They couldn?t see the sun shining
He knelt in the garden and prayed
Father, let this cup pass from me
It?s not Your will for me to stay
Your will for me is the opposite way
And it seemed like He was locked in a cage
And He couldn?t find a way of escape
But through the cross He conquered the grave
My Jesus ran the opposite way
Oh, and through the cross He conquered the grave
Oh, He ran the opposite way
Yeah, through the cross He conquered the grave
You gave all You had
I didn?t choose You, You chose me first
Even when I turned my back
You still gave Your love, it?s the only thing I wanna have
No greater gift
Than a man to lay down his life
How could I miss this?
I?m not about to pass it up
Count me in
I?m amazed this love is for me, Lord
Count me in
I?m amazed this love is for me, Lord
I'm looking at these plans You have
For me they?re plans of hope and peace
Much bigger than the ones I have
I tried to follow mine, I was going nowhere fast
Your love makes me
Like a David with a stone and sling
Nothing else could bring
My life so much meaning
Count me in
I?m amazed this love is for me, Lord
Count me in
I?m amazed this love is for me, Lord
I can?t believe it
I can?t believe it
I can?t believe it
Count me in
Come on, You can count me in, yeah
And You can count me in
You can count me in
Come on, come on, come on
You can count me in
Come on, come on
Count me in [Incomprehensible]
Staring at the glow of the city lights
In the land of the rising sun
You hear the cries from the hearts of everyone
An ocean apart from my town tonight
But I know I’m not alone
I feel You just as close a thousand miles from home
I can see Your love, I can see Your love all around
Everywhere I go, everywhere
It’s surrounding
I can feel Your heart, I can feel Your heart
Beating for us now
Sinking my feet in the muddy ground
Lifting my face in the rain
I see Your kingdom in the middle of hunger and pain
I feel You in the hands of the poor
I hear You in the song of the weak
There is no place too far that You can’t reach
I see it in the sun
I see it in the sky
Your glory’s everywhere
Your love is alive
I see it in Your Son
I see it when He died
I see it when He rose
Your love is alive
Oh yeah, Your love is alive
Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of paper made
Every tree on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade
To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky
Oh love of God, how rich and pure
How measureless and strong
It shall forevermore endure
The saints and angels songs
Oh love of God, how rich and pure
How measureless and strong
At the stars in the night, I wonder
At Your lightning in the sky, I shudder
Your glory is a blanket that covers
Every living thing
I’m in awe at the majesty of who You are
Your love is a seal burnt inside my heart
All of the day I want to be where You are
Holy Father
And it feels like there’s not enough praise inside of
With all these words, all my heart can sing is holy
You are holy
Jesus Christ
You bled Your love, laid down Yourself
And gave me life
In naked shame You hung and You were lifted high
Here I lay in awe and wonder
I am afraid
For no one’s ever sacrificed and loved me this way
So on my face I fall under Your heavy grace
Here I lay in awe and wonder
And I wonder
I’m in awe at the majesty of who You are
Your love is a seal burnt inside my heart
All of the day I want to be where You are
Holy Father
And it feels like there’s not enough praise inside of
With all these words, all my heart can sing is holy
The nation lost and dying
Searching for You
Creation waits
Children with the word of God
Written on their hearts
Show love to the world
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
I know it?s sad
That the gift we have
We keep it for ourselves
Most of the time
The world is looking
For a love that?s locked up
Inside these four walls
Break the door down and shine
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
Our face is set, our goal is heaven
Jesus, You are the well of love
We?ll pour You out
We?ll pour You out
Our face is set, our goal is heaven
Jesus, You are the well of love
We?ll pour You out
We?ll pour You out
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God, pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Oh, we give You praises
For You alone are holy
Jesus, Your name is greater
For You alone are holy
We want to see
Your victory
All over the earth
All over the earth
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
All over the earth
All over the earth
All glory in the highest
All glory in the highest
Be lifted up, Lord
Be lifted up, Lord
You are holy
I've sat by for too long
And I've watched the hurting
Suffer on their own
I have chances everyday
To live like You, die to myself
Give Your love away
And I wonder why
I feel so empty inside
While I sing
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the hungry roam the streets
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the broken are on their knees
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
I keep singing
We are frozen, we are still
For the call to be a city on a hill
And as our melodies resound
We cannot hear the silent cry
This world is screaming out
And we wonder why, ooh yeah
We feel so empty inside
While we sing
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the hungry roam the streets
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the broken are on their knees
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
We keep singing, yeah
Remember salvation's day
When Jesus washed our sins away
The lost are crying out to be saved
While we sing
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the hungry roam the streets
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
As the broken are on their knees
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
We keep singing
But just a song won't heal
The bleeding wounds
Church wake up, we're sleeping
In an empty tomb, yeah
Church arise, arise and shine
Shake yourself from the dust
God is calling us to go
Church arise, arise and shine
Shake yourself from the dust
God is calling us to go
Church arise, arise and shine
Shake yourself from the dust
When I stand before God's throne
Nothing hidden, nothing unknown
Dead to my body, my old life He took
Got a hold in His hands my days in a book
When I kneel down that day
Looking upon His holy face
I remember with trembling
Every single moment, every memory
Who was I and where was I going?
What kind of fruit were my actions growing?
Staring at the pages
He'll be staring at the pages of my life
Was my passion just to know Him?
Did I really live it out and show Him?
Staring at the pages
He'll be staring at the pages of my life
This house I'm building every day
Silver and gold, straw and the hay
Tried by fire will I stand
When the flame gets higher or will I burn away?
Who was I and where was I going?
What kind of fruit were my actions growing?
Staring at the pages
He'll be staring at the pages of my life
Was my passion just to know Him?
Did I really live it out and show Him?
Staring at the pages
He'll be staring at the pages
In Your presence I belong and without You I am lost
Come and change me from the inside
In my weakness You are strong by the power of the cross
Come and change me from the inside
Who am I and where am I going?
What kind of fruit are my actions growing?
Staring at the pages
You are staring at the pages of my life
Is my passion just to know You?
Am I living this life to show You?
Staring at the pages
You are staring at the pages of my life
Staring at the pages
It? s like you got to walk like him
Got to talk like her, got to be like them
Everybody knows you follow the crowd
Or get singled out
But God says who you are
Not the world or movie stars
Don? t you know
He holds the answers in His hands?
We? re stuck in a system
Is there anybody different?
Is anybody listening?
Is anybody listening?
Everyone has their own sound
Let it out now, let it out now
There? s nothing wrong with living loud
Let it out now, let it out now
I? m drawing the line between
Being them or being me
I? m not ashamed to call myself
One of Yours, Lord
But it? s a narrow path
I? ve got to break from the pack
No turning back
No turning back
We? re stuck in a system
Is there anybody different?
Is anybody listening?
Is anybody listening?
Everyone has their own sound
Let it out now, let it out now
There? s nothing wrong with living loud
Let it out now, let it out now
Yes, God? s looking for people
With a passion in their hearts
We? re God? s children
We need to shine bright
We need to shine bright
Everyone has their own sound
And don? t you know all God? s children
Have their sound?
Everyone has their own sound
Let it out now, let it out now
There? s nothing wrong with living loud
Let it out now, let it out now
Fear is far from love
And I feel scared enough
To think You’ve given up on me
But I can’t hide my shame
You know my deepest pain
You are well acquainted with my grief
Oh great God of power
I have lost my strength
This is my desperate hour
I’m calling out Your name
I cry
Are You out there tonight
Or am I all alone
This time it’s the fight of my life
So I cry
I can’t do this on my own
I can’t do this on my own
I am giving You control
If weakness is a crown
Then I kneel before You now
And lay it at Your feet as an offering
And if You hold everything
Then don’t let go of me
Hide me in the shadow of Your wings
Oh great God of power
I have lost my strength
This is my desperate hour
I’m calling out Your name
Are You out there tonight
Are You out there tonight
Are You out there tonight
So I cry
Are You out there tonight
(You said You’d never leave me)
Are You out there tonight
(You said You’d never leave me)
Are You out there tonight
(You said You’d never leave me)
So I cry
I can’t do this on my own
I can’t do this on my own
I can’t do this on my own
I can’t do this alone
I can’t do this
I’m holding on to You
I’m holding on to You
I’m holding on
I’m holding on to You
God, I’m holding on to You
A childlike love I had
When we first began
We ran and I fell behind
I?ve been stuck here all this time
You waited like a lover
Who couldn?t let go of his bride
I turned my back away from You
Didn?t shed a tear or cry
But I?m falling for You now
I?m coming back to the place where we parted
It?s for real this time
So I?ll be here waiting where we started
My feet were bruised
I tried but I couldn?t fill Your shoes
I went my way, I bought the lie
That I was all grown up, didn?t need You in my life
The winter left me cold and frozen
Looking for the truth
But searching for the sun
I found the place where I met You
And I?m falling for You now
I?m coming back to the place where we parted
It?s for real this time
So I?ll be here waiting where we started
It feels so good to be in Your arms
You never left me, I just chose to stay behind
I want to thank You for Your love that gives me freedom
To run back, to come back
Falling for You now
I?m coming back to the place where we parted
I keep on falling, I keep on falling
And it?s for real this time
As the rain falls from Heaven, I'm lost in Your love,
You're overwhelming, Jesus.
And we're walking together, holding hands,
Oh, it's just You and me, Jesus.
Life is good here, fruit is growing
On the beautiful branches.
There is rest and there is peace
Inside the shade of Your garden.
Jesus, You're the only one for me,
There's no way I'm leaving You.
You're the love, the way, the life, the truth,
You're the door I'm walking through.
Angels are lifting songs of praise,
Oh, they're just singing Your story.
And nothing can take me away from this place,
Lord, I'm just lost in Your glory.
Your love is the reason that I am free,
Oh, and I'm running to You 'cause you're all I need.
Jesus, You're the only one for me,
There's no way I'm leaving You.
You're the love, the way, the life, the truth,
You're the door I'm walking through.
You're the only one for me,
There's no way I'm leaving You.
You're the love, the way, the life, the truth,
You're the door I'm walking through.
And Jesus, You're the only one for me,
There's no way I'm leaving You.
Hey!
As the rain falls from Heaven, I'm lost in Your love,
You're overwhelming, Jesus.
You're the only one for me,
There's no way I'm leaving You.
You're the love, the way, the life, the truth,
You're the door I'm walking through.
Jesus, You're the only one for me,
