One more life, A bright shining light
One more hope, That the world will be all right
You're a miracle child, Love made alive
Water falls from heaven , as God says you're mine
God says you're mine
One more heart, Begun by You
One more soul, And hey all things are new
And soon you'll know your name, Love's made its claim
Heaven will be calling you, And you'll never be the same
You'll never be the same
And you'll never be alone, When you feel lonely
You'll always be loved, Yaeh, you're part of a family
Something's happened today, That can never fade away
When God comes down from heaven , He's here to stay
Here to stay
In one more life, One more life,
One more life, One more life
You're a miracle child
Love made alive
Water falls from heaven
God says you're mine
God says you're mine

It's getting higher, Love's desire
Soon we'll all be under water
Running fast, Running wide and deep
Soon we'll all be under water
Step down with me, Step into the muddy waters
Let go with me, Open your hands and receive the darkness
It's getting higher, Love's desire
Soon we'll all be under water
Running fast, Running wide and deep
Soon we'll all be under water
Step down with me, Don't hold back let it happen
Let go with me, Slip inside a sweet surrender
If you are united with me in a death like mine
Step down and let go in the water
If you would die and leave it all behind
You will rise with me so alive
It's getting higher, Love's desire
Soon we'll all be under water
Running fast, Running wide and deep
Soon we'll all be under water

The Saints of Old
04:58

Father Abraham wandering man
Back and forth, through a strange land
When God promised to give you a home
Father Abraham did you still feel alone
Did you feel alone, Did you feel alone, I feel alone
Holy Moses standing by the sea
When the waters parted what did you see
And when you walked across dry land
Holy Moses did you understand
Did you understand, Did you understand, I don't understand
Mother Mary, pregnant and alone
With only a dream, nothing else to hold
Did they point, did they stare
Mother Mary did anybody care
Did anybody care, Did anybody Care, Does anybody care
Lord Jesus, sent from above
When you found yourself human did you think of love
And when you walked to Calvary
Lord Jesus did you feel free
Did you feel free, Did you feel free, I don't feel free
Here I am with choices to make
And I don't know which road to take
It ain't easy finding faith so bold
Am I surrounded by the saints of old
By the saints of old, Are the saints of old, Standing with me
Lord Jesus, sent from above
When you found yourself human did you think of love
And when you walked to Calvary
Lord Jesus did you think of me
Did you think of me, Did you think of me, Think of me

Lonely Eyes
03:26
|

Lonely eyes,
Even when you smile you've got those lonely eyes
Oh, deep inside no one understands
And sometimes late at night you cry
When all the world's a lullabye
All you hear is a lonely cry
Lonely eyes
Frightened by the life of love that's passed you by
Life is a day dream world
Of paper clowns and painted smiles
And sometimes late at night you cry
Awakened from another lie
Another dream that can never fly
Lonely eyes
Looking for a dream come true that will let you fly
Fly far away beyond the scars of the soul
And then at night you won't have to cry
You can spread your wings and touch the sky
And awake to find, It wasn't a lie
Lonely eyes
It's time to wake up and finally realize
The wings are right by your side
They've been there all the time
Surrendered for you with a lonely cry
Alone in the night someone died
At the cross roads of your lonely life
And now at night you don't have to cry,
You can spread your wings and touch the sky,
And awake to find it wasn't a lie.

“Love Is Everywhere Around You”
The days go by so fast
You've forgotten who you are
An old familiar line
The same old falling star
When Love is everywhere around you
Waiting for you to open up
Love is everything about you
Take a chance find out who you are
Your fallen mind's afraid
Your courage sheds a tear
Your strength and power
Ever captive to your fears
When Love is everywhere around you
Waiting for you to open up
Love is everything about you
Take a chance find out who you are
You choose without a choice
You're forced to live in vain
You're safe and secure
But screaming in your pain
A voice inside
Wonders if it's true
Could you be loved
Could anyone love you
When Love is everywhere around you
Waiting for you to open up
Love is everything about you
Take a chance find out who you are

To Step Away
03:13

Too many things holding me down
Too many things keeping this bird on the ground
I hear you speak and I look to the sky
I hear your word and I just know I have to fly
I pray that I might find a way
To mount on wings and fly away
I pray for the courage, to step away
Blessed are the poor for the kingdom is theirs
Woe is me always fighting for my share
So much to hold onto, so much power to claim
So much of nothing when you speak my name
I pray that I might find a way
To mount on wings and fly away
I pray for the courage, to step away
Just what's become of this little blue earth
It's fallen from creation and I'm not sure just what it's worth
You're calling me to leave the world behind
To find myself in you and stop wasting my time
I pray that I might find a way
To mount on wings and fly away
I pray for the courage,
To step away from the subjective feel good lies
Step away from the first world boundary lines
Step away from the violence of sacrifice
Step away from the good American life
and step inside of you
Too many things holding me down
Too many things keeping this bird on the ground
I hear you speak and I look to the sky
I hear your word and I just know I have to fly
I pray that I might find a way
To mount on wings and fly away
I pray for the courage, to step away

All Things New
03:01

You promised me you'd make all things new
You promised me you'd see me through
I'm taking you for your word
I'm taking my life out, out to the streets
I wanna be like you
You walked the world with a heavenly name
You ignored society and all of its games
And you're calling me to be one in the same
I wanna be like you
You promised me you'd make all things new
You promised me you'd see me through
I'm taking you for your word
I'm taking my life out, out to the streets
I wanna be like you
No one gonna tell me how to live anymore
I'm standing on your word nothing else and nothing more
I'm building a house on a rock not a sand castle on the shore
I wanna be like you
I wanna live now! I wanna be free!
Hold the promise that was given to me
Claiming love's identity
I wanna be like you
You promised me you'd make all things new
You promised me you'd see me through
I'm taking you for your word
I'm taking my life out, out to the streets
I wanna be like you

Open My Eyes”
Open my eyes, that I might see
You revealed in each and every way
Open my eyes, that I might see
You standing beside me every day
And when my eyes are open wide
Fill the emptiness inside
Open my ears, that I might hear
The sweetest sound ever made
Open my ears, that I might hear
You calling me by name
And when my ears are open wide
Fill the emptiness inside
Open my heart, that I might believe
And stand on promises true
Open my heart, that I might believe
And find myself only in you
And when my heart is open wide
Fill the emptiness inside
Open my eyes
Open my eyes

The Magical Moment
03:41

Reach out, touch the magical moment
Touch the moon and the stars
Reach out, touch deep within
Imagine who you really are
You've been held a prisoner
Going on a thousand years
Someone else’s expectations
Your own set of fears
Going on a thousand years
Reach out, touch the magical moment
Touch the moon and the stars
Reach out, touch deep within
Imagine who you really are
Your mind has been on overtime
Creating a distorted world
lonely and preoccupied
White flag unfurled,
Creating a distorted world
Reach out, touch the magical moment
Touch the moon and the stars
Reach out, touch deep within
Imagine who you really are
Wondering if you ever gave it all
The law laughs and the heart cries
The eternal day dream
Under blue sunny skies
And the heart still cries
Reach out, touch the magical moment
Touch the moon and the stars
Reach out, touch deep within
Imagine who you really
Imagine, Imagine, Who you really are,
Imagine, Imagine, Who you really are,
Imagine who you really are
Imagine
Reach out, touch the magical moment
Touch the moon and the stars
Reach out, touch deep within
Imagine who you really are

Love Rains On You
04:42
|
|||
|
In the middle of the pain hear your lover say
Hold onto the emptiness that comes to save
In the silence of the night, the hollow of the day
Don't become your fear, hear the artist say
I am there, creating in you
In the mystery of life and death everything's made new
Love rains on you
The sojourner must cry along the less traveled road
But with every step taken the dream takes hold
Only the empty heart can hold life that's true
A strange peace and a strong love waits for you
For I am there, creating in you
In the mystery of life and death everything's made new
Love rains on you
As the rain begins to fall, take the risk of letting go
The world may pass you by, but you'll never know
In the renewal of the mind, the transformation of the heart
A new age dawns, faith becomes art
For I am there, creating in you
In the mystery of life and death everything's made new
Love rains on you
For three long days love rains on you
For three long days love rains on you
For three long days love rains on you
Life begins, All things are new

As you go your way, may God go with you
As you go your way, wherever you may go
May God go before you to show you the way
May God go behind you to encourage you every day
Beside you as friend
Above to watch over
And within to give you peace
In the name of the Father, in the name of the Son
In the name of the Spirit, in the name of love
Amen
Amen
Amen
