(Instrumental)


. . .



Sometimes I feel like I’m just existing
I’m not really living
I’m only watching the time slip away
I’ve forgotten who I am in you
I’m not who I’m meant to be
I’m drifting farther away from my destiny
chorus:
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken your power and take control
Awaken the passion to live for you, lord
Awaken me
My soul is longing, my heart is searching
I’m desperate for you to move
Give me a hunger, pull me closer
I’m crying out to you
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken your power and take control
Awaken the passion to live for you, lord
Open my eyes so i can see your presence
Dwelling inside
Wake me up, cause i can't live another minute
if I’m not shining your light
Awaken my heart, awaken my soul
Awaken the passion in me
Lord, awaken me to live my destiny
Lord, awaken me and shine your light through me
Lord, awaken me to live my destiny
Lord, awaken me and shine your light through me


. . .



This is a song for anyone whose ever been
Knocked down and can't get back again
Stuck in the corner, can't move forward
All alone and you think you're going nowhere
This is a song for anyone whose ever stood underneath the sun
And felt so small, two feet tall and so out of place

He sees you - He knows you - He loves you
And He wants you to know that

The life that you've been living, the days that you've been given
Were made for something beautiful
Life - don't let it pass you by
Because you were created for something beautiful

Heaven holds a dream that's just for you
And there are things only you can do
So step by faith, put the past away so step by faith, don't be afraid
It'll take you to a better day put the past and your fears away
Second to minute to hour to life
Time always seems to fly
LyricsIt's on the go and before you know
Your days are through

But he sees you - He knows you - He loves you
And he wants you to know that

The life that you've been living, the days that you've been given
Were made for something beautiful
Life - don't let it pass you by
Because you were created for something beautiful

What are - you waiting for
What are you - waiting for
What - are you waiting for
There's something beautiful


. . .



Sometimes i get that overwhelming feeling
so sad those faces on tv
if i tried to make a difference would it helo anyway
but then i stop and to myself i say
So you wanna change the world
what are you waiting for
you say you're gonna start right now
what are you waiting for
it only takes once voice
so come on now and shout it out
give a little more
what are you waiting for
Sometimes i feel a little helpless
seems like i can't do a thing
but anything is possible just you wait and see
good things happen if you just believe
Chorus
Someday somehow
gonna take that step
cause time is ticking away
Right here right now
before it's too late
gonna face tomorrow today
Chorus


. . .



Foolish heart looks like we're here again
same old game of plastic smile
don't let anybody in
hiding my heartache, will this glass house break
how much will they take before i'm empty
do i let it show, does anybody know?
chorus:
but you see the real me
hiding in my skin, broken from within
unveil me completely
i'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
painted on, life is behind a mask
self-inflicted circus clown
i'm tired of the song and dance
living a charade, always on parade
what a mess i've made of my existence
but you love me even now
and still i see somehow
but you see the real me
Lyricshiding in my skin, broken from within
unveil me completely
i'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
wonderful, beautiful is what you see
when you look at me
you're turning the tattered fabric of my life into
a perfect tapestry
i just wanna be me
but you see the real me
hiding in my skin, broken from within
unveil me completely
i'm loosening my grasp
there's no need to mask my frailty
cause you see the real me
and you love me just as i am
wonderful, beautiful is what you see
when you look at me


. . .



Been driving through the night
i pull up and see the lights
this is the place that i call home
i watch you as you sleep
think of all you mean to me
Touch your face
kiss you softly
before i go to sleep pray under the stars
search my soul and check my heart
and thank god for
Another day
another chance to love the ones i love
to find my way
to laugh, to dance
watch the sun come up
another day i get to live
as if
every breath could be the last i take
i get another day
I’ve got a hand that i can hold
someone who knows my soul
Lyricsa safe place to lay my head at night
so why do i forget
how much i’ve been blessed in life
forget what means the most to me
As i’m waking up i feel my beating heart
so grateful that i've come this far
and thank god for
Chorus
To make somebody smile
go the extra mile
take a wrong and make it right
and try to touch somebodys life
I get another day....


. . .



You keep watching the rain come down (yeah)
pretty princess, broken crown (yeah)
and your dreams have all burned out
but don't you know that they brought you
here somehow, all you need to know is....
chorus:
you're home, where secrets are told
see a new world unfolding
where hearts are one, the pain's undone
and your finally belonging, yeah
and you need to know, you need to know
you're home, yeah
you need to know, you need to know
you're home
so take your coat off and stay awhile (yeah)
what made you cry can make you smile again
you can hold your head up high
'cause don't you know that you
oh, girl you were born to fly
when you realize.......
you're home, where secrets are told
Lyricssee a new world unfolding
where hearts are one, the pain's undone
and your finally belonging, yeah
and you need to know, you need to know
you're home, yeah
you need to know
all you really need to know is you're home
welcome home
everything's gonna be alright
'cause you're home
feel the sun, your day has come
you're not alone
you're home


. . .



It must mean something
When I close my eyes
Visions of you come to me and flood my mind
It must mean something
When my heart is true
All that I can think about is you
(Chorus)
Everywhere I go you find me
Even when I run
I’m captured
I’m captured in you
Everywhere your love surrounds me
I cannot escape
I’m captured
I’m captured
It must mean something
When I’m standing still
Yours is the only voice I wanna hear
It must mean something
That I’ve come this far
Lifting up my hands and offering my heart
Lyrics(Repeat Chorus)
(Bridge)
You are the sky
You are the sea
You are the air I wanna breathe
You’re everywhere
Your love last forever
And if I fall
You won’t let go
You hold me when I can’t hold on anymore
You reach out and rescue me
(Repeat Chorus)


. . .



Two months is too little
They let him go
They had no sudden healing
To think that providence
Would take a child from his mother
While she prays, is appalling
Who told us we’d be rescued
What has changed and
Why should we be saved from nightmares
Were asking why this happens to us
Who have died to live, it’s unfair
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We’d be held
This hand is bitterness
We want to taste it and
Let the hatred numb our sorrows
The wise hand opens slowly
LyricsTo lilies of the valley and tomorrow
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We’d be held
If hope if born of suffering
If this is only the beginning
Can we not wait, for one hour
Watching for our savior
This is what it means to be held
How it feels, when the sacred is torn from your life
And you survive
This is what it is to be loved and to know
That the promise was that when everything fell
We’d be held
Repeat Chorus


. . .



I stand in awe
That You know my name
Just a glimpse of Your love for me
And now I am changed
Because You, showed me how
To walk a different way
I have peace like I’ve never known
I am living
You move me
Lord You move me
There’s a fire burning in my soul
And it’s flowing through me
Lord You move me
Lord You move me
Now I must tell the world what I know
You move me
For too many years
I have been color blind
Only saw in shades in grey
Stuck in black and white
By grace you opened my eyes
Now I see the light
And Your love has colored my world
And makes my soul cry
Chorus
Day after day I’m amazed
That You gave Your life for me
When I think of the price that you paid
How could I not say?
Chorus


. . .



I've been silent instead of speaking up
gave my advice instead of giving love
i have been unfair, faithless and unkind
i have shut my eyes just so i would stay blind
it's not what i meant to do
'cause i wanna honor you
chorus:
make me over, make me new
make me a mirror, a reflection of you
take me all apart
take me to your heart and pull me closer
oh, Jesus, make me over
take away the pride that whispers in the dark
take the stone out of the middle of my heart
hidden underneath my insecurities
is the servant that you've destined me to be
but day after precious day
i get in my own way
make me over, make me new
make me a mirror, a reflection of you
take me all apart
Lyricstake me to your heart and pull me closer
sweet savior, make me over
i am only made of your imagining
i'm dust and clay on the wind
wash me in the river of your sacrifice
until i'm changed, purified
take me all apart
take me to your heart and pull me closer
my Jesus, make me over
make me over


. . .



Sittin' in my room staring at the wall
Wonderin' about the meaning of it all
Why is it this thing called life
Has got me goin' crazy
So I open up your word and let it speak to me
The purpose and the plan that you've designed
Is clear to see, and I believe

Chorus:
I'm gonna live for today
I'm gonna follow in your way
I'm gonna let my little light shine
Like there's no tomorrow
I won't worry about the past
I know my future is intact
So I'll choose to live my life one way
I'm gonna live it for today

You told me not to worry
About what lies ahead
So I am gonna focus on today instead
Making every moment count and counting
Every single blessing
I'm gonna set my mind on the
Here and the Now
This is what I want my life to be about
And this is How...

Repeat Chorus


. . .



I hear you say
That you can't go on
Cause you had it all and watched it fall away
You feel betrayed
Cause everything's gone wrong
Can't find the strength to hope for a better day
We may not understand the reasons
But I know His promise will never change
(Chorus)
He's gonna take your pain
He's gonna take your doubt
He's gonna bring it all together, bring it all together
Gonna make you happy
He's gonna make you laugh out loud
He's gonna bring it all together
Bring it all together for good
You say you're livin your life
Doing the best you can
Wondering if the struggle means anything
If you realized that it's in His hands
You'll find the peace that sweet surrender brings
LyricsWell, we may not understand the reasons
But His promise will never change
He's gonna take your pain
He's gonna take your doubt
He's gonna bring it all together,
Bring it all together
Gonna make you happy
He's gonna make you laugh out loud
He's gonna bring it all together
Bring it all together for good
I know there will come a day of healing
Then We will see the master plan
We will celebrate His faithfulness
And we'll sing (sing) and we'll shout (shout)
Praise His name
