"FALL INTO THE SON"
lately Your flames have been calling me
up from the winter where I lay
my frozen blood won't circulate
and once living tissue has turned gray
my beating heart that once burned for You
waned from a bang to a drone
the warmth of Your fire just won't penetrate
now that my heart is stone
I need a change from what I have become
I fell into the Son, I - fell into the Son
I had to burn to see the light
I fell into the Son
the average man couldn't comprehend
wanting to be burned alive
but if he felt Your touch he would understand
the glory of Your heavenly fire
I need a need a change from what I have become
I feel like I died, I've been gone for so long
"STONES"
there's times when I find I have been pushed by the wayside
my stand just isn't enough and you reveal to me my blindside
it's when I thought I was on a roll and Your hedge was strong up around me
but You let it down just to show I need a little weather let in on my soul
and though the wind blows cold You'll never see me hiding in a hole
cuz I find my shelter in the shadow of Your wings
and I feel my bones that grew so brittle strengthening
I curse these stones that gather clinging to my feet
but I can't deny I'm mighter to fly
the enemy would have me believing all of his lies
when I've fallen flat on my back
his foot's on my chest and he's blocking out the sunshine
and though the darkness grows Your light's ablaze inside me I feel Your fire glow
"BLEED"
I recall the days when I was untouchable
when the shadow of death kept it's distance
but now i feel You tightening the reins
leading me to change my direction
the tide is rising my lead feet can't tread water
my heart is bleeding I fear it cannot mend
show Your strength shut the mouths of these lions
reassure it's all meant for good in the end
I am vexed my soul longs for freedom
my skin now cleaves to my bones
but now I know that my redeemer lives
and my salvation rests in God alone
"RISE"
I need to follow Your ways but in my flesh dwells no good thing
by Your grace I'm amazed Your faithfulness extends past my shame
I need to rise - above these thorns that choke out my life
rise - bring me alive by the fire of Your light
I need to kneel at Your feet I'm standing up to foes I can't defeat
and it all starts at Your cross without Your love my Lord I know I am lost
You call me from afar come out from where you are
for you I have been torn so from the ashes be reborn
"PRECIOUS FLOW"
hey have you seen the man with blood stained on His hands?
and the blood is raining down - on you
and His blood is on your heads and it trickles to your feet
and this very blood makes the bitter sweet
it's raining blood again
cuts from the Master's head
watch as new life begins
to trickle from His veins
oh precious flow
hey did you see the cross where majesty was lost
to wear a crimson stain - for you?
did you hear His moans flesh ripping form His bones?
declaring it's for you He's wearing it for you He's bearing it for you
did you feel the crawling of your skin?
did you hear the request to enter in?
would you turn away from the sight
of His blood mangled tears as He poured out His life?
would you choose not to choose not to choose tonight
just leave the door closed and don't let in the light?
"WHIRLWIND"
I will not leave Your sight again
cuz I'm afraid of what might happen
sinking further into sin
carry me away inside Your whirlwind
like Isaiah I'm undone
I need Your hot coals on my tounge
please someone save me I used to say
now I can say that I'm already saved
drowning and sinking with the burden of death
until Jesus came and gave me His breath
by Your blood and sacrifice I have new life
and You have chosen me
so I will give You every piece of me
"LIVING WATER"
living water flood my veins lift this vessel drown my pain
I'm so thirsty in this arrid land
my gaze turns upward and my cry resounds
and I would never thirst again if I could only taste Your rain
let Your rivers overflow make this desert place Your ocean
You see my barren dust I lift my cup You fill it up
the darken cloud has burst I lift my cup You fill it up
springs eternal end this dearth
let Your love bleed into all the earth
I believe in Your love and Your rain I'm thirsting for
let Your rivers overflow make this desert place your ocean
"THIEF OF TEARS"
let thunder roll and lightning streak the sky
let the earth shake and the fourwinds howl in the night
I know I'm safe resting in Your arms
Your sovereign hand calms my restless heart
let there be light to ever guide my way
and when there is night remind me of Your day
Jesus stay close to quiet all my fears
to think of Your love robs me of my tears
Jesus Your love - robs me of my tears
"GLORIFY"
I keep pressing onward not worried 'bout the things I'm missing
my home is in the heavens but while I'm here I'm on a mission
I seek to glorify the Father in all my words and deeds
I lead the people to Jesus lead the people down on their knees
If you could only see your life through the eyes of the Father
you would understand just why He gave us His life through His son
you would look upon the world with love through the eyes of the Father
are you searching for a meaning in this insanity?
have your travels lead nowhere in your quest for peace?
we were born into this prison and only Jesus holds the key
the whole world needs forgiveness - forgiveness starts down on your knees
"ULTIMATUM"
my fellow humans this is our existence
apart from our God here we die and we rot
while we search and plead He is all that we need
apart from Him how can we live when He is life?
how can we live? apart from Him were born to die
Its not like we don't know we've heard all this before
how Jesus came down to wear a thorny crown
a new life to recieve if we only believe
"ASHES"
truly I would gladly die for you my love
and how I hate to see you fading down that road
but you put on your own chains one by one
turning your face away from the Son
you want it now you got it
the picture he painted has turned into ashes
seduction of the serpent
the freedom he promised has turned into shackles
while the shepherd is waiting to be your shelter
if you wold only choose to wear the lighter yoke
your crown of thorns would change into a crown of gold
and you have the power to free yourself
and Jesus is waiting to take you back

"I Soar"
And if my heart bursts asunder
And all the joy it can't contains spills out on you.
Would you rely on your own feelings?
To relay the message to your brain that this is true.
Well its true.................
Relate the smiling to the spirit
That has invaded all the lands within your soul.
And let the tempo snag your shirt tail
To take a ride into the wonder of it all.
It all....................
I'm digging in my heels
My foundation's sure
Now I'm ready for the sky
To greet me as I Soar.
What is this joy that sweels inside me?
I never noticed it until I saw your face
Before from crawling on my belly
Gathered the dirt and myre that fell from sin's disgrace.
"I.N.S.A"
Deep in the valley, here I find the end of me
Stripped down and naked, the unrelenting darkness covers me.
My own strength has failed me, with one last breath I cry out deliver me!
And oh, your love overtakes me.......
And I never stand alone.
I'm kicking the habit, of relying on myself when I know that you're the only way
Beauty for ashes, you take away my shame to give to me your joy again.
There's no place, I can go where your faithful spirit won't follow.
With faith my shield and your word my sword
I can rest assured I'll Never Stand Alone!
"Retreat From Day"
I say, don't take my wings from me, I want to stay free
My day begins with lavish rays, the Son He showers me
Beneath my feet the shadows creep, but I am not afraid.
I walk through ways of black disease, but you've become my way.
The Comfort of every heart is found in you my Lord.
We're only a breath away from seeing the light Retreat from Day.
I pray, that you would hear my cry, when I cry in the night
Be brave, I hear you speak these words, and then I feel alright
Show love to those who are in need and you'll be blessed indeed
Follow the path and plant the seed, and oh what fruit you'll glean.

"Come Fire"
What am I, but a shadow in the night
To be smitten by your light
Here you come, the focus of my praise
Your awesome touch still blows me away
And you blow me away......
Whispering something so divine
Here our hearts become intertwined
Listening, I burn for all you say
Your gentle breeze, to blow me all away.
And I'm burning for you........
Come Fire, come flame, while I sit here
Dead and lame, revive my soul
I know there's pain, when the dross is
Burned away, revealing gold.
I don't mind, cut me til I bleed
Your perfect will, I'll gladly heed
You're leading me, closer to your flame
Kill my flesh, for the glory of your name
And you blow me away...................
"Ponder"
Do you think, its possible, that you could be
Forgiven of all you've done
And all the weight you carry on your shoulders
You could lay it down and carry on.
Let me say, I know it's possible you could be
Forgiven of all you've done
And all the weight, you carry on your shoulders
Lay it down and carry on
And what glorious redemption
He came to pardon me
Now behold the light from heaven
Burning bright for all to see.
What do you think?
Stop and think how wonderful, how benign
A life with hope could be
For in the pit, through darkness you will stumble
Until the light you see.
"Into Your Light"
Does the light blind your eyes?
Is the truth a bad surprise?
Did one man really come
And die for the sins of all?
Well, I don't wanna stay blind
Search me and find the pieces of my broken heart
Lead me out of the dark and into your light
Where I know you are.
Can a soul cease to be
In light of eternity
Will we find, all we need to know
While we're here all alone.
Entangled and mamed, I call out your name
I need you again
So come like the flood, to cleanse by your blood
And cover me like rain.

"Marvel At The Man"
Marvel at the man upon the splintered tree
Broken and bloody there he hangs
Notice all his wounds and his humility
Barely resembling a man.
Don't you know He knows your name.
Your value far exceeds the price of pain
No one takes my life from me, He said
I lay me body on your tablespread
This is the breaking of the holy bread
Oh death where is your sting?
Harbor the truth that pricks your heart this day
Hold fast to this great mystery
The creator of the universe and everything
Came and died to set all captives free.
"Find Me Here"
I'm sinking as the light begins to fade
I'm wishing that I never had it made
I'm stinking in these selfish tendencies
I'm marooned on this deep and darkened sea.
Before I drift away, find me here
Before I fall to far, find me here
Before I lose the light
Don't let me lose the light.
You're reaching as I turn the other way.
You're wishing I would never talk that way
You're giving me these selfless tendencies
You're lifting me up high so I can see.
"You Are"
You see the things I've done, Yet you love me still
My path is dark sometimes, but you're the light that comes to light my way
You see my open heart and everything's revealed
I'm giving you my all, you take away my shame.
You are my strength, you are my savior
The one that sees me through
You are my bread, you are my hero
God show me how to live for you.
Before this world was made, beyond the holds of time
You have always been, the great "I Am" you are my portion in this life
It was my hands that drove the nails
It was my sin that tore your skin
It was my heart that made you suffer
It is your blood that gives me life
Those are your stripes that saved my soul
By your death I've been redeemed
Your brokeness has made me whole.

"Prison No More"
Long awaited, the Son he comes
Stand you paupers, stand you sons
Heavy hearted, humbled ones
Lift your head and, forget your scars.
Freedom comes like showers fall
thoroughly embracing all
For this before, His feet we fall
For this we heed the master's call.
We're in prison no more
No longer fear, no longer feel the scorn.
Yes I've been trodden on, bloody and rejected come.
But still I choose to carry on, yes I choose to carry on.
Listen to the voices rise to sing
The chamber gates are moaning as they swing
Swing on!
"The Message and the Gift"
Called out from all of this world
This is our purpose
Speak freedom to the captives
This is the message.
Did you see the cripple walking?
Did the blind man show you what he now sees?
We are all just eager vessels
Unified by our common need
To be filled up to be made useful
To occupy our maker's dreams.
Wake up no time for sleeping
We're all invited
Redemption is upon us
Through Jesus Christ!
