01 - Found By You
(Matthew Gerrard / Ben Kolarcik / Justin Unger)
I've been looking for some answers here
Searching harder for a new way there
I'm still walking all alone
And I don't think I'll make it home, but...
There is something that I know for sure.
Refro
You brought me out here on my own
To find my way through things unknown
I know that I can't make it without You
When days are long and skies are grey
I'll walk with You, You lead the way
Some say that I am lost,
But that's not true
'Cause really I am found by You.
Things they seem a little clearer now
(seem so clear)
Found the right direction here somehow
(right direction here)
Fear is gone and trust is new
So, I don't care what others do
I will give up anything I have.
Sometimes I can't feel (feel You near)
Is this life for real? I need to know
I'm running out of hope
I'm running out of time
I need You to remind me of Your love.
02 - Give It All Away
(Jim Cooper / Ben Kolarcik / Kenny Lamb)
Let me get it straight, I should focus on the things above...
So why do I insist on possessing what will only weigh me down?
You said, "Separate yourself from all the treasures of this world..."
And now I'm starting to understand what I should do.
I give it all away
Because it's what You said
Until there's nothing left, I give it all away
I give it all away
Until there's nothing left
Because it's what You said, I give it all away
I give it all away.
Pieces of me are all in disarray
And they are only held together by the threads I weave
Inside my head
But when I separate myself from all the troubles of this world
I see my cares and fears and worries all dissolve.
You fill the empty places with Your love (You gave it all
away)
There's freedom in surrendering to You.
03 - Everywhere She Goes
(Jess Cates / Randy Jackson / Ricky Kackson)
Last night I saw her out
In the city crowd
Laughing in the breeze
She smiled at me
Just like a movie scene
It was her and me
Waltzing in our heads
All by ourselves
And as she passed me by
I could see it in her eyes.
Refro
Everywhere she goes, she goes there knowing...
I just wanna be with her
Everywhere she goes, she goes there knowing...
I just wanna be...
I just wanna be with her.
Seems like I see her face
Every couple days
Playing hard to get
I can't handle this
Something about the way she moves
The looks she gives, the attitude
It pulls me in.
When's she gonna stop these games?
When's she gonna stop?
(Everywhere she goes...)
I just wanna be with her.
04 - When I Open My Eyes
(Jeremy Bose / Ben Colarcik / Justin Unger)
A hand to hold
Is often hard to see
And I cannot
Deny You're reaching out to me
The day is gone
And still I know You're near
And I've got nothing to fear.
Refro
But when I open my eyes
You're the first thing I see
A vision once clouded
I feel Your presence over me
From when the sun comes up
'Til I fall asleep at night
I know You'll be there
When I open my eyes.
Now granted...
I've been here a time or two
I've learned, I've lived
And now I've learned again
I pray that I...
I might become like You
I've got nothing to lose.
Your love is like the ocean
It never stops rolling in
You are my world
I can't survive without You
With You it's all surrender
In that I find such peace
Tell me this is no dream, yah...
When I open my eyes
Oh Lord, I feel Your presence over me
From when the sun comes up
'Til I fall asleep at night
I know You'll be there
I know that You'll be there...
05 - Broken World
Promises shattered
Answers don't come
Friends say goodbye
Plans come undone
Dreams get crushed
Lies get told
Words can turn cruel
Hearts can grow cold.
Refro
In a broken world where we cry to feel
Some hope that helps these hearts to heal
You're my strength, You're my refuge
In a broken world, Jesus I'm holding to You.
You make sense of the madness
And You make darkness flee
You bring such a calm
To the chaos in me
Show me life
Tell me truth
Day after day I keep running to You.
Long ago, we fell so far
Yet You came to where we are.
06 - Shooting Star
When I walk a thousand miles from home
And when I've lost all I used to know
It seems that I've got nothing left
I find that I'm undone
You are here to break me
And You've only just begun
Refro
With open arms You came running so far
To show who You are and who I am
Only You can change a heart
Like a shooting star You soar through the darkest of nights
To catch my eyes and guide me to the Father's arms.
When I wonder where You're leading me
With no direction, walkin' aimlessly
Still You're ever faithful
Still You're ever strong
Now I can call You Father
You're calling me back home.
Your arms, they're always wrapped around me
Your arms, they'll never cease to hold me
Hold me.
07 - Exciting Times
I've got something to talk about
I've had a lot on my mind
But I think I finally figured out
What I'm feeling on the inside
'Cause where I wanna be
Is in the thick of things
It's all I'm thinking about.
Refro
These are exciting times
I can see that You are leading me
And it feels so right
I'm assured of this, my offering
I'm finally living
'Cause these are exciting times.
Things can happen so rapidly
Then again, they can take a lot of time
But I know these things are not up to me
But I'll be ready in the mean time
Opportunity is calling out to me
I lay it all on the line.
This thing is bigger than me
And I'm just wanting to be a part of
Anything and everything You ask of me.
These are exciting times...
I can see that You are leading me.
08 - Masquerade
For so long I've been
Putting all my effort into you
My heart is bare
I've been looking everywhere for truth
You know...
Exactly what you're doing to me
But that's okay...
'Cause I'm not playing anymore.
Refro
I see what you're trying to hide
It didn't take me long to realize
You can't fool me with your disguise
I can see right through your lying eyes
You took your shot, pushed me around
You're never gonna take me down
So get out of my face...
With your masquerade.
Since I've moved on
Things are going everyway but wrong
It's a brighter day (across the sky)
A new life, new friends
It's got me wondering where I've been
I was in a haze
I know...
That you're still bearing down on me
That's okay...
'Cause I'm not running anymore.
When it all comes down
You won't have control over me
You can shape it how you want
But you have been revealed.
You took your shot, pushed me around
You're never gonna take me down.
09 - Persistence
I always felt like there was someone guiding me
Through the twisted maze of my reality
You never gave up when my hope would fade
You showed me signs, so many times.
As the days went by I sensed Your touch
A steady stream that slowly turned into a flood
With all the evidence I'll ever need
There's no question of the way You prove Your love.
Refro
Over and over I was turned back around
Whenever I wandered somehow You would find me
You've taken me into Your heart to my home
And closed the distance with Your persistence.
Like an island I have landed on many times
Your love has been the only place I could survive
When I'm all alone I hear Your voice
Constantly, You are there for me.
I always felt like there was someone guiding me
Through the twisted maze of my reality.
10 - First Love Song
You know it's all been said before
Melancholy words that fade with the morning sun
I always say that you're the one
Somehow I'm always left undone.
Dreams are never like you think
'Cause dreams don't really know what it is you really need
Love sees what you could never see
Now I see you
And I never knew
What love could do.
Refro
This is my very first love song
I'm gonna sing it for you
This is my very first love song
I'm gonna sing it for you.
I know that this is gonna last
No matter how the change may come I'll have you...
To lean on
I see it more each passing day
What we've become
How wonderful
To feel this love.
I feel it in my soul
I know it's gonna grow
I feel it in my soul
I know it's gonna grow
I feel it in my soul.
11 - Do You Dream Of Me?
(Michael W. Smith / Beverly Darnall / Amy Grant)
Dreams within the still of night
On wings of hope take flight inside of me
There upon some distant shore
We want for nothing more than what will be
And you and I, here we are
I wonder as we come this far.
If I could only read your mind
Tell me the answer I would find
Do you dream of me?
Love has found a magic space
A deep and hidden place where time stands still
Now I hold you in my arms
You know you hold my heart and always will
And you and I, here we are
And it's a wonder that we've come this far.
And after all that we've been through
You've leaned on me, I've leaned on you
Do you dream of me?
And when you're smiling in your sleep
Beyond the promises we keep
Do you dream of me?
If I could only read your mind
Tell me the answer I would find
Do you dream of me?
And when you're smiling in your sleep
Beyond the promises we keep
Do you dream of me?
And after all that we've been through
You've leaned on me, I've leaned on you
Do you dream of me?
Do you dream of me?
12 - Not So You Will Love Me
Wanna live in the moment
Like there's nothing that I lack
I wanna give like there's nothing to lose
And no reason to look back.
Refro
Not so You will love me
Not so You will love me
Not so You will love me
But because You do.
There's no way to impress You
There's no grace I can earn
Help me to see that my life is a gift
I can give in return .
Because You do
I don't have to prove a thing
Because You do
I am free
Where there's suffering I'll bring comfort
Where there's wandering I will guide
Where there's judgment I'll show mercy
Where there is darkness I'll be light.
