I've been down about as low as anyone can get
The whole world was closin' in
Couldn't find a friend
No one else could help me
Had to walk through the fire alone
Life has brought me to my knees
And faith had led me home
Let
the storm rage around me
I will stand, I will fight
And when the darkness surrounds me
I will make my own light
I may not win every battle
But I'll get stronger with every fear I face
And I'll be brave
I
can be courageous and still be so afraid
I've discovered pain is the beginning to a change
Somewhere deep inside us
There's a strength we don't know we have
Just when you think you can't go on
Suddenly there's a path
Let
the storm rage around me
I will stand, I will fight
And when the darkness surrounds me
I will make my own light
I may not win every battle
But I'll get stronger with every fear I face
And I'll be brave
Every
time I get back up it gets harder to knock me down
'Cause my soul's on steady ground
Let
the storm rage around me
I will stand, I will fight
And when the darkness surrounds me
I will make my own light
I may not win every battle
But I'll get stronger with every fear I face
And I'll be brave
I'll be brave
Verse
1:
I tried so many times but nothing happened,
It seemed the task at hand was much too great for me.
I spent my yesterdays wondering if tomorrow would be the same.
I underestimated Your grace.
But you loved me in spite of my ways
And changed me.
Chorus:
Change
That's the word that comes to mind when I think of all you've done for me.
Oh, oh, change
It's kinda' strange how people say that I act so differently
Oh, oh change
Every passing day I find it easier to say:
"What a wonderful change in me."
Verse
2:
Now I find myself staring in the mirror
Taking inventory of the things I see.
I never realized that there was so much missing deep inside
Until you took control of my life.
Like an eagle now I can fly
Cause you changed me.
Chorus:
Change
That's the word that comes to mind when I think of all you've done for me.
Oh, oh, change
It's kinda' strange how people say that I act so differently
Oh, oh change
Every passing day I find it easier to say:
"What a wonderful change in me."
Bridge:
And everyday I pray that you'll open my eyes to see things your way
Cause I wanna love like you,
Walk like you,
Live like you.
Whatever you have to do
Even if you change me Lord.
Chorus:
Change
That's the word that comes to mind when I think of all you've done for me.
Oh, oh, change
It's kinda' strange how people say that I act so differently
Oh, oh change
Every passing day I find it easier to say:
"What a wonderful change in me."
come just as you are
hear the spirit call
come just as you are
come and see
come receive
come and live forever
life
everlasting
strength for today
taste the living water
and never thirst again
Ooh, hoo...
Tired
of living life in black and white
There's so much in between
Like a rainbow in the sky
Waiting to be seen
When
I open my eyes to find inspiration
I search for the best I can see
If I settle for less
I won't be the best I can be
[Chorus]
When I dream, I dream in color
There is so much I want to discover
Somewhere I know there's a rainbow
Waiting for me
Life
is short, but can't be bought
And time is a very precious thing
I want to go to where I've never been
And see what's never been seen
When
I wake up each morning I won't take for granted
There'll always be another new day
Got to live for each moment
Never let time slip away
[Chorus]
When
my eyes are closed
I still know where to go
I feel so awaken, alive
When I'm vast asleep
I still feel the beat
Of the heart that's so ready to fly
Ready to fly
When
I dream, I dream in color
There is so much I've yet to discover
I'm just beginning to set myself free
It's clear to me now of what I believe
Somewhere I know there's a rainbow
Waiting for me
Chorus:
I pray that God would fill your heart with dreams
And that faith gives you the courage
To dare to do great things
I'm here for you whatever this life brings
So let my love give you roots
And help you find your wings
May
passion be the wind
That leads you through your days
And may conviction keep you strong
Guide you on your way
May there be many moments
That make your life so sweet
Oh, but more than memories
Chorus:
It's
not living if you don't reach for the sky
I'll have tears as you take off
But I'll cheer as you fly
Chorus

Title:
Mountain of God
Album: Wherever You Are
Artist: Third Day
Thought that I was all alone, broken and failed
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me
And
I didn't even know that I had lost my way
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me
Til
You opened my eyes, I'd never know
That I couldn't ever make it without You
Even
though the journey's long
And I know the road is hard
Well, the One who's gone before me
He will help me carry on
After all that I've been through, now I realize the truth
That I must go through the valley to stand upon the mountain of God
As
I travel on the road that You have lead me down
You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I have need for nothing more
Oh, now that I have found that You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I
confess from time to time, I lose my way
But You are always there to bring me back again
Sometimes,
I think of where it is I've come from
And the things I've left behind
But of all I've had, what I possessed
Nothing can quite compare with what's in front of me
With what's in front of me
Title:
My Father's Heart
Album: Live For You
Artist: Rachel Lampa
Let everything that breathes praise you
The earth the sky the sea praise You
Just as nature shows to us Your blessing
Soon I find my heart confessing
Chorus:
My love is not my own
It all belongs to You
And after all You've done the least that I can do
Is live my life in every part
Only to please my Father's heart
Love
is all Your need to heal us
Flowing from the heavens Jesus
And with one voice we'll sing together
And this will be our song forever
Chorus:
My love is not my own
It all belongs to You
And after all You've done the least I can do
Is live my life in every part
Only to please my Father's heart
Instumental
Ooo...
Chorus:
My love is not my own
It all belongs to You
And after all You've done the least I can do
Is live my life in every part
Only to please my Father's heart
Only to please my Father's heart
Title:
Prodigal
Artist: Casting Crowns
Album: Lifesong
Living on my own, thinking for myself
Castles in the sand, temporary wealth
Walls are falling down, storms are closing in
Tears have filled my eyes, here I am again
And
I've held out as long as I can
Now I'm letting go and holding out my hand
Daddy,
here I am again, will You take me back tonight
I went and made the world my friend and it feft me high and dry
I drag Your name back through the mud
That you first found me in
Not worthy to be called Your son
Is this to be my end
Daddy, here I am
Here I am again
Curse
this morning sun, drags me into one more day
Of reaping what I sow, of living with my shame
Welcome to my world, and the life that I have made
Where one day you're a prince, the next day you're a slave.
Title:
Testify to Love
Album: Maze of Grace
Artist: Avalon
All
the colors of the rainbow
All of voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the Hope in every heart will speak what love has done.
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
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
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
Sometimes
it’s hard for me to understand
Why we pull away from each other so easily
Even though we’re all walking the same road
Yet we build dividing walls between
Our brothers and ourselves
But
I, I don’t care what label you may wear
If you believe in Jesus you belong with me
The bond we share is all I care to see
And we can change this world forever
If you will join with me
Join and sing, sing
You’re
my brother, you’re my sister
So take me by the hand
Together we will work until He comes
There’s no foe that can defeat us
When we’re walking side by side
As long as there is love
We will stand
The day will come when we will be as one
And with a mighty voice together
We will proclaim that Jesus
Jesus is King
And it will echo through the earth
It will shake the nations
And the world will see
See that
The
time is here, the time is now
To take a stand, to make a vow
I won’t let go, you’re not alone
Now and forever we’ll sing together
