Lead Me Home
04:00
|
|||
Oh I'm keeping myself occupied
To pass away the time
'Cause I was hoping that it wouldn't come to this
Trying to earn your favour
By staying in line
And telling myself that ignorance is bliss
Oh 'cause I really hoped it wouldn't come to this
I'm chasing after rainbows
To try and find the gold
After colouring this life in shades of grey
And I'm trying to do the right thing
But I don't know what that is
So I'm telling myself that ignorance is bliss
Oh but I really hoped it wouldn't come to this
'Cause I need you now
Like I've needed you before
So will you hear me out
One more time
I know you know already
But I can't do this alone
Oh I'm lost
Will you lead me home
Well maybe I'm the only one who likes being alone
But I find that's when I have the space to think
But recently my thoughts just haven't fit into the mould
‘Cause I don't think that ignorance is bliss
Oh there must be more to life than this
'Cause I need you now
Like I've needed you before
So will you hear me out
One more time
I know you know already
But I can't do this alone
Oh I'm lost
Will you lead me home
I know you know already
But I can't do this alone
Oh I'm lost
Will you lead me home
'Cause I need you now
Like I've needed you before
So will you hear me out
One more time
I know you know already
But I can't do this alone
Oh I'm lost
Will you lead me home
I am lost
Will you lead me home
Oh I'm lost
Will you lead me home

Where Can You Run To
04:21
|
|||
When you find
That there's no peace of mind
Inside your head that you're holding in your hands
‘Cause you can't understand
How you lost this time
Once again
You're running like the wind
To the end
'Cause you don't know just where you stand
So you'll fall for anything
And you can't fight
So you have to fly
Where do you run
Where do you run
When it's all fallen in and
Where can you hide
Where can you hide
When he sees everything
And you are trying to do it on your own
But you are not alone
You're not alone
When it's all
Gone to pieces and your back's against the wall
No one can help you now
Is this what you thought it would be like
This crazy thing called life
It's just the passing of time
Where do you run
Where do you run
When it's all fallen in and
Where can you hide
Where can you hide
When he sees everything
And you are trying to do it on your own
But you are not alone
You're not alone, no
Where do you run
Where do you run
When it's all fallen in and
Where can you hide
Where can you hide
When he sees everything
And you are trying to do it on your own
But you are not alone
No you're not alone
And where can you run to
And where can you hide
Oh where can you run to
Where can you hide
And where can you run to
And where can you hide
Oh where can you run to
Where can you hide
And where can you run to
And where can you hide
Oh where can you run to
Where can you hide

Alive
06:10
|
|||
As the lash came down
And my sins bled out
Broken and alone
You carried me home
And as the nails dug in
Hammered in by my sin
You hung and you died
So I could be alive
Take me, all that I am
And move me from where I stand
And break me so I can be whole
I want to love you from the depths of my soul
You gave it all so I could have it all
You paid my debt so I could be free
And as the lash came down
And my sins bled out
Broken and alone
You carried me home
And as the nails dug in
Hammered in by my sin
You hung and you died
So I could be alive
Here I am broken and tired
And there you are with your arms open wide
I'll run to you like you're running to me
You are the reason that I can be free
You gave it all so I could have it all
You paid my debt so I could be free
As the lash came down
And my sins bled out
Broken and alone
You carried me home
And as the nails dug in
Hammered in by my sin
You hung and you died
So I could be alive
All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
I will ever love and trust Him
In His presence daily live
Yes all to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
I will ever love and trust Him
In His presence daily live
Lord have it all
Lord have it all
I surrender all
Lord have it all
Lord have it all
I surrender all
Lord have it all
Lord have it all
I surrender all
Lord have it all
Lord have it all
I surrender all

One More Day
04:28
|
|||
Rolling hills and daffodils and walking in the park
Summer evenings staying out late until it's dark
And never in my life have I fallen quite so far
In love before
Now I'm waking up to sunshine in the middle of the day
And lazy afternoons are wasting summertime away
And never in my life have I loved anyone this way
But you
But you
And I'm wishing on a summer day
That nothing's gonna fade away
And nothing in this moment will change
And I'm wishing on the sunshine
That you're still gonna be mine
When I am old and you are grey
I'm just wishing for one more day
Just one more day
Sea sides and high tides and ice creams on the pier
And living every moment like it's gonna disappear
And never in my life will I regret that I was here
With you
Now I'm waking up to sunshine in the middle of the day
And lazy afternoons are wasting summertime away
And never in my life have I loved anyone this way
But you
But you
And I'm wishing on a summer day
That nothing's gonna fade away
And nothing in this moment will change
And I'm wishing on the sunshine
That you're still gonna be mine
When I am old and you are grey
I'm just wishing for one more day
Just one more day
Soon enough the sky turns grey
And our summer dreams will blow away
So before summer turns to winter
And the air gets cold
I think you ought to know
That I'm wishing on a summer day
That nothing's gonna fade away
And nothing in this moment will change
And I'm wishing on the sunshine
That you're still gonna be mine
When I am old and you are grey
Wishing on a summer day
That nothing's gonna fade away
And nothing in this moment will change
And I'm wishing on the sunshine
That you're still gonna be mine
When I am old and you are grey
I'm just wishing for one more day
Just one more day
Just one more day

My Fearful Heart
05:07
|
|||
Lord forgive my fearful heart
I'm just scared of running free
'Cause underneath it all
I have a fragile soul
That's used to captivity
So forgive my anxious heart
I'm just scared to break my rules
But your amazing grace
Has given me the faith
To trust in what I can't do
In my darkness and in my doubts
Lord give me strength to stand
Though storms may come and rain may fall
Help me to dance
And in the dead of night when I feel afraid
Lord help me to trust in you
That in the end all your perfect plans
Will work together for my good
I'm so tired of being scared
But I feel so unprepared
Lord forgive my fearful heart
I'm just scared of running free
'Cause underneath it all
I have a fragile soul
That's used to captivity
So forgive my anxious heart
I'm just scared to break my rules
But your amazing grace
Has given me the faith
To trust in what I can't do
Oh I won't lie I'm terrified
Of not being in control
It's not up to me so I sometimes believe
That I'll lose it all
But when I'm thinking straight I know it's better this way
To give it all up to you
It's in your hands and your perfect plans
Will work together for my good
I'm so tired of being scared
But I feel so unprepared
Lord forgive my fearful heart
I'm just scared of running free
'Cause underneath it all
I have a fragile soul
That's used to captivity
So forgive my anxious heart
I'm just scared to break my rules
But your amazing grace
Has given me the faith
To trust in what I can't do
Give me strength
Give me faith
To walk in your ways
And trust in what I can't see
Give me joy
Give me peace
Give me everything I need
To be who I'm called to be
Give me strength
Give me faith
To walk in your ways
And trust in what I can't see
Give me joy
Give me peace
Give me everything I need
To be who I'm called to be
Give me strength
Give me faith
To walk in your ways
And trust in what I can't see
Give me joy
Give me peace
Give me everything I need
To be who I'm called to be
Lord forgive my fearful heart
I'm just scared of running free
'Cause underneath it all
I have a fragile soul
That's used to captivity
So forgive my anxious heart
I'm just scared to break my rules
But your amazing grace
Has given me the faith
To trust in what I can't do

And Can It Be
05:43
|
|||
And can it be that I should gain
An interest in your blood
You died for me though I caused your pain
And still you chose the cross
Amazing love
How can it be
That you my Lord
Would die for me
Amazing love
How can it be
That you my Lord
Would die for me
You left your Father's throne
'Cause your grace was infinite and free
And through your love you gave it all
So that now the blind can see
’Tis mercy all
Immense and free
For O my Lord
It found out me
‘Tis mercy all
Immense and free
For O my Lord
It found out me
It found out me
Far too long my Spirit lay
Bound in darkness
Bound in sin
Until I saw the light you gave
And it burned from within
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I rose and I'll follow
Wherever you lead
My chains fell off
My heart was free
I rose and I'll follow
Wherever you lead
Oh wherever you lead
No condemnation now I dread
Because all you are is mine
You've given me your righteousness
And you've made me alive
So bold I approach the eternal throne
And claim the crown
Through Christ my own
Oh bold I approach
The eternal throne
And claim the crown
Through Christ my own
Through Christ my own
Amazing love
Amazing love
How can it be
That you my Lord
Would die for me
Amazing love
How can it be
That you my Lord
Would die for me

Unafraid
04:02
|
|||
Am I messed up or a bit mismatched
Am I scarred or just a bit scratched
Am I broken beyond repair
Or is there something left to save
Am I a broken record that missed a beat
Am I a work in progress or incomplete
Am I different 'cause society
Doesn't like how I behave
They can change your mind
Change your point of view
And in the end they'll be changing you
And making you into something that they understand
They'll make me bend but will I break
It's a risk I have to take
'Cause if I never try I'll never know
And then I'll be too late
And will they bend me out of shape
Or will I bounce back stronger than before
And walk through every open door
Unafraid
To make mistakes
'Cause I am wonderfully made
Oh I'll take life as it comes
'Cause I am unafraid
Am I giving up or letting go
Am I taking my time or just too slow
Am I wrong just because I trust
In something you can't see
Am I a work of art or a mistake
Am I a science test you can't retake
Am I crazy just because I see
The same world differently
They can change your mind
Change your point of view
And in the end they'll be changing you
And making you into something that they understand
They'll make me bend but will I break
It's a risk I have to take
'Cause if I never try I'll never know
And then I'll be too late
And will they bend me out of shape
Or will I bounce back stronger than before
And walk through every open door
Unafraid
To make mistakes
'Cause I am wonderfully made
Oh I'll take life as it comes
'Cause I am unafraid
I'll take my chances
‘Cause I know there is more than this
I know there's something that you've missed
And I will take my time
'Cause I know that there is no rush
What I have will be enough
To take life as it comes
Unafraid
They'll make me bend but will I break
It's a risk I have to take
'Cause if I never try I'll never know
And then I'll be too late
And will they bend me out of shape
Or will I bounce back stronger than before
And walk through every open door
Unafraid
To make mistakes
'Cause I am wonderfully made
Oh I'll take life as it comes
'Cause I am unafraid

You Love Me Anyway
04:40
|
|||
Lord I come to you on my knees
Thinking I'm not worth anything
And Lord I come to you asking please
Will you pick me up and make me something new
Cause I've been running around trying everything I know
To be accepted as your own
And make you see the worth in me
And I've been trying hard to earn your scars
And be the person I think I should be
But what I failed to see
Is that you love me anyway
Yes you love me anyway
You took all my shame away
And you love me anyway
Lord I come to you
Heart on my sleeve
Knowing you won't turn your back on me
And Lord I come to you
With all my fears
Knowing you are greater than these
'Cause I've been running around trying everything I know
To fix my problems on my own
And live independently
And I've been trying hard to earn your scars
And live the life that I think I should lead
But what I failed to see
Is that you love me anyway
Yes you love me anyway
You took all my shame away
And you love me anyway
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
Amazing grace how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now am found
Was blind but now I see
That you love me anyway
Yes you love me anyway
You took all my shame away
And you love me anyway
Yes you love me anyway

To The Shore
05:41
|
|||
On the horizon I see the sun rising
And it casts it's light on the sea
But here on the shore I'm still waiting
For it to reach me
I feel a chill in the air and the birds overhead
Keep circling and mocking me
And the sand is getting damp
Beneath my feet
Oh you told me to wait but now it's getting late
And the waves keep catching my feet
Oh I want to have faith but I'm just not that brave
And the waves are much bigger than me
I am small
And I feel so overwhelmed by it all
And when the waves come rolling in
I'm scared I might sink
But you are strong
And you've been by my side all along
So when the oceans roar
I'll walk on the waves with my Lord
To the shore
To the shore
Out in the distance I see the fog lifting
As the sun comes shining through
But here on the shore
The skies are far from blue
Oh I'm standing on the rocks and although the waves crash
I'm not sinking
But the tide is growing high
Around me
Oh you told me to wait but now it's getting late
And the waves keep catching my feet
Oh I want to have faith but I'm just not that brave
And the waves are much bigger than me
I am small
And I feel so overwhelmed by it all
And when the waves come rolling in
I'm scared I might sink
But you are strong
And you've been by my side all along
So when the oceans roar
I'll walk on the waves with my Lord
To the shore
To the shore
I'm tired of the struggle
I'm tired of the battle
I'm so tired of the fight
Oh I know God's enough
And I know I am loved
But sometimes I still cry
Oh sometimes I still cry
Oh I still cry out Lord
I am small
And I feel so overwhelmed by it all
And when the waves come rolling in
I'm scared I might sink
But you are strong
And you've been by my side all along
So when the oceans roar
I'll walk on the waves with my Lord
To the shore
To the shore

Someday
04:35
|
|||
She's living on her own
No family
No home
And she's living on the streets
Never knowing from day to day just what she'll eat
Or who she'll meet
But oh
She knows
That she is not alone
And someday she'll have a home
Oh she'll have a home
She always has a smile
For the people who look her way every once in a while
And oh she keeps the faith
That she will sit beside her king one day
And there she'll stay
But oh
She knows
That she is not alone
And someday she'll have a home
Oh she'll have a home
And her momma always used to say her smile lit up the world
And her daddy always used to call her his precious little girl
And every time she thinks about them smiling down on her
She knows what her faith is worth
And oh
She knows
That she
Oh she is not alone
And someday
And someday
And someday
Oh she knows
That she is not alone
And someday she'll have a home
Oh she'll have a home
