Verse One

Strip me down, strip me down, strip me down to nothing.
Take away, take away, take away my scars.
Leave me here, leave me here, leave me here to find myself,
‘til the day, ‘til the day I’m Home.

Chorus

I have arrived. I have arrived.
I have arrived. I have arrived.

Verse Two

Eliminate, eliminate, eliminate my wanderings.
Sit me down, sit me down, sit me down to feast.
My heart’s been beat. My heart’s been dragged,
by the mighty, for the least.

Chorus

I have arrived. I have arrived.
I have arrived. I have arrived.

Bridge

This is my time to be in place, oh.
This is my time and run, run this race.
And there is nothing, nothing, nothing.
And there’s nothing, nothing, nothing left to fear. Yeah!
Oh, victory. The victory is clear.
Alright, alright, alright.
I have arrived. I have arrived.
I have arrived. I have arrived.

Chorus

I have arrived. I have arrived.
I have arrived. I have arrived.

Verse One

In the darkened silence
of this never-ending doom,
I come to realize
their walls are filled with gloom.
Within these walls, so many fall
and slip away from you.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Verse Two

On a marble alter,
I pour out my own soul.
And wait in hope for clergy
to give me back control.
They say they love, but calloused scales
blind eyes of love’s true glow.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Bridge

False security,
illusive purity.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Verse One

The road ahead is long and traveled,
hard to keep, and loosely graveled.
Careless twists and turns,
will lead me to where I learn
not to search farther than light.
For nothing is farther than light.

Verse Two

The road ahead climbs higher the mountain,
up and around, crimson the fountain.
It’s pointing to a time
of broken fields and grafted vines
and hope of heart redefined.
Nothing is farther than light.
And light is where I stand.
Nothing moves farther than light.

Chorus

With so many fears,
and so many ways,
how do I take,
how do I take to this flight?
And if I should lose, lose my way,
how will I know to get back on the road that is right?
How will I know?
How will I know to get back on the road that is right?
For nothing is farther than light.

Bridge

And if I look to see
where I will be,
there is nothing but hope,
nothing but hope in my sight.
And if I look to find
some peace of mind.
Nothing can save me from the night.
And if I look to find
some peace of mind.
Nothing can save me from the night, from the night.

I am in light.
I am in light.
I am,
I am,
I am in light.

Verse One

Some people want to change your mind.
Some people want to make you blind.
They run around in a world of fools.
Useless talk breaks all the rules.

Chorus

Talk, Talk, Talk
behind my back.
Talk, Talk, Talk
this is your attack.
Talk, Talk, Talk
smack behind my back.

Verse Two

Some people just don’t see the Light.
Some people lust in darkest sight.
They devour with slander and lies.
Useless talk breaks all the ties.

Chorus

Talk, Talk, Talk
behind my back.
Talk, Talk, Talk
this is your attack.
Talk, Talk, Talk
smack behind my back.

Bridge

Silence is a blessing
until your lips are confessing
that Truth is Alive.

Chorus

Talk, Talk, Talk
behind my back.
Talk, Talk, Talk
this is your attack.
Talk, Talk, Talk
smack behind my back.

Verse One

Are you the one
I’m looking for?
Are you filling treacherous space?
Are you the one who is wanting to know
how love is found in Grace?

Chorus

Is this fight for you? For you?
Close the book if this is true!
Is it true?
Are you the one?
The last one?
Are you the one?

Verse Two

Are you the one
I’m waiting for?
Does your mind run in sight of fear?
Are you the one who is asking your heart
for the right to persevere?

Chorus

Is this fight for you? For you?
Close the book if this is true!
Is it true?
Are you the one?
The last one?
Are you the one?

Bridge

You signed in gold.
Now go speak bold
and tell the world
that you’re the one,
The one! The one! The one!

Are you the one?
The one?
Are you the one?

Chorus

Is this fight for you? For you?
Close the book if this is true!
Is it true? Are you the one?
The last one?
Are you the one?

Are you the one?

Verse One

My eyes are on fire.
I dare not veil this glow.
Not veil this glow.
I live to the beat of my heart,
of my heart,
suffering for this Love I know.

Chorus

Wildflower on sunny days,
bold sacrifice in summer’s haze.
Bear witness spread
cross grassy knoll.
Laughing, dancing,
Beautiful Soul.
Beautiful Soul.

Verse Two

This air of design.
I dare not exhale a breath.
Not exhale a breath.
I seek the escape of one life, of one life.
I embrace the life of one death.
I embrace the life of one death.

Bridge

Wildflower, speak to me.
Wildflower, speak to me.
Wildflower, speak to me.
Wildflower, speak to me.

Outro

Beautiful Soul,
Beautiful Soul,
Beautiful Soul,
Beautiful Soul.

Verse One

The wind blows against my face.
The lines of time cannot erase what I’ve come to know.
But who am I that I should be?
I stand in love. I stand in peace.
This warrior’s heart will never cease.
Atoned my sin, to heal this land.

Chorus

Here am I. Oh send me Lord.
I am ready to take
this high position, my commission.
You have prepared my heart and mind,
renounced all time.
I am guiltless and sublime.
Here am I.
Send me!

Verse Two

The rain storms with intensity.
The fog rises in density of what I’ve come to see.
And who am I to question why?
I stand alone, a single cry,
reaching out beyond the angels sigh,
to empower this wind.

Bridge

Understand with all your heart.
There’s a battle, yet to start.
Send me.
Turn now and be healed.
Wash the stump of this field.
Send me.

(Here am I)

Send me.

(Here am I)

Send me.

Verse One

Walking through a soiled wood,
darkness spread right through the good.
And footsteps were,
were heard,
from under the earth
in the soiled wood,
where I stood.

Chorus

Poison fumes, impending doom.
Foolish pride, selfish lies.
Toxic waste, toxic haste,
offered for this world to taste.
Tempting, delightful toxic face,
evil from an empty race.
Toxic

Verse Two

Dazed by what I knew would hide,
I understand deceptions side.
I leave the world,
the world behind,
running, hard and blind.
I knew that they would hide.
They have no pride.

Chorus

Poison fumes, impending doom.
Foolish pride, selfish lies.
Toxic waste, toxic haste,
offered for this world to taste.
Tempting, delightful toxic face,
evil from an empty race.
Toxic

Bridge

What is lost, is toxic cost.
What is driven, is toxic given.
Here I stand on toxic land, facing faces in the sand.
Removed by Loves most gentle hand from toxic land,
and toxic man.

Chorus

Poison fumes, impending doom.
Foolish pride, selfish lies.
Toxic waste, toxic haste,
offered for this world to taste.
Tempting, delightful toxic face,
evil from an empty race.
Toxic

Don’t want to be a toxic man

Verse One

I see them fail,
the ones that tell this lonely tale.
I now must haste,
or stand among the toxic waste.
I’m driven to these distant lands.
The lost, I hope will understand.

Chorus

My life is spinning out of sight.
Today is fading into night.
I need to light this candle’s birth
efore darkness devours our earth.

Verse Two

I see the pain,
the ones who struggle to be sane.
They fade away,
and all their color turns to gray.
My hope is brightened by your seas.
For I know they’ll stand for me.

Chorus

My life is spinning out of sight
Today is fading into night.
I need to light this candle’s birth
before darkness devours our earth.

Bridge

All I see. All I know.
What I do. Where I go.
I stand as a witness of who and what we are
This is my call.
For me to validate
This is my call.
For me to seal my fate.
I stand as a witness
I stand as a witness

Chorus

My life is spinning out of sight
Today is fading into night.
I need to light this candle’s birth
before darkness devours our earth.

Verse One

I saw her standing aimlessly about the winters night.
She was angry at the fantasy of shining bright.
She lives her life in treasures,
of status, and of gold.
She gets lost in all her wanderings,
and speaks out of control.

Chorus

Hush your heart, when its hard to overcome
Hush your soul, when your actions make you numb.
Hush your mind, when you cut with sharpest word.
When your presence can be heard.
Hush!

Verse Two

I caught her laughing endlessly about another one.
She was speaking rather carelessly about someone.
She has no understanding
of love, or life, or hope.
Hollow arguments and bantering,
she hangs on a weathered rope.

Chorus

Hush your heart, when its hard to overcome
Hush your soul, when your actions make you numb.
Hush your mind, when you cut with sharpest word.
When your presence can be heard.
Hush!

Bridge

Sometimes in silence
I hear her crying heart.
She has no love,
and no fire to start.
She sings a song of quiet loss,
and weeps the harmony.
Hardened heart in muted tragedy.

Outro

I pray the Lord will hush you now!
Maybe the Lord will hush you now!

Verse One

Desperation
has been replayed over and again.
It is insane.
Tomorrow comes and still I live within the horror
of this shame. Desperation

Chorus

Will my blood cleanse me? Will my blood be true?
Will my blood save me
from the threat of you?
And though my life overtakes me
with guilt and hate.
Desperation breaks me,
as it steals my name.

Verse Two

I’m on a path, where death is clear.
Feeling pain, life grips my fear.
What have I done to be born in a world like this?
What have I done?
What have I missed?

Chorus

Will my blood cleanse me? Will my blood be true?
Will my blood save me
from the threat of you?
And though my life overtakes me
with guilt and hate.
Desperation breaks me,
as it steals my name.

Bridge

Can you save this day? Can you heal my way?
Will you hold me now?
I’m slipping away. No one sees me.
I’m lost in the noise of this crowd.

Chorus

Will my blood cleanse me? Will my blood be true?
Will my blood save me
from the threat of you?
And though my life overtakes me
with guilt and hate.
Desperation breaks me,
as it steals my name.

Verse One

It was in a mist, a morning fog,
I saw your face through clouded vision.
Reaching out for your hand,
my hope, your life, our love command.
And I was drawn into your eyes,
within your light, unto your life.
You called my name,
to you I came.

Chorus

And in that white mass of confusion,
darkness left the room.
For it was chased from its illusion.
And love lit the full moon.

Verse Two

It was you my love, my heart, my life
who showed me my own soul.
And in that moment, in your eyes
I lost all my control.
I gave it to the One
who bellowed in the sun
the name He made for me.
It echoed,
be free.

Bridge

The moon embraced with lover’s grace,
and Mercy rained upon my face.
Stars filled up the darkened sky,
keeping us safe in loves light high.
I love you.

And in that white mass of confusion,
darkness left the room.
For it was chased from its illusion.
And love lit the full moon.

I love you,
simply true.
And that is how love lit the full moon.
Yes, our love lit the full moon.
Love lit the full moon.

Verse One

In the darkened silence
of this never-ending doom,
I come to realize
their walls are filled with gloom.
Within these walls, so many fall
and slip away from you.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Verse Two

On a marble alter,
I pour out my own soul.
And wait in hope for clergy
to give me back control.
They say they love, but calloused scales
blind eyes of love’s true glow.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Bridge

False security,
illusive purity.

Chorus

And men in all,
all their glory,
sit on seats of painted lies.
They judge and rip
the heart of a
people in disguise.

Verse One

I’ve traveled cross the sea,
ignored the candid mysteries.
Been up a mountain or two,
blew off the boldest view.
And in the sky, in loves eyes,
I never saw or knew, the wonder and the miracle
as each day blooms anew.

Chorus

Existing in my misery,
I walked obliviously,
surrounded by this wealth
of natures blossoming health.
I never knew that flowers grew,
nor reached inside to find
that it all began in artistry.
All this for humankind.

Verse Two

With human love,
I’ve felt its touch,
and abused it as a crutch.
I’ve seen the tears of hope and need,
and crushed their open seed.
And in my heart
I could not start to live or love or die.
And so my path became me,
and I became my lie.

Bridge

One day, as I was walking,
I crossed a frail wood bridge.
The weight of my body pressing,
and I fell upon a ridge
I lay there forever,
until the sun went cold.
Moonlight, moonlight.
Moonlight, bright and bold.
My days turned quietly to gold,
and I was held within the fold of wings so great.

Not too late.
No, never, never too late.

Verse One

The snow it fell unto my life.
The mountain was within, within my sight.
My eyes beheld your majesty,
the face of love no one can see.

Chorus

I brought my life up to the mountain,
the mountain in the sky.
I lifted it up to the Most High.
It’s on this mountain I will die,
and let my spirit fly.
As the mist rises,
and you ask me why.
This is where I’ll die.

Verse Two

Never to be without you,
but within your tender sight.
Guided by this mountains light,
pure and simple in your sight.

Bridge

The knowledge is living, I hold to it.
The music’s rushing. It won’t quit.
The hope it sings with pure delight.
It gives freedom to help me fight.
As this mountain holds your claim,
I come to it without shame.
The image is vivid.
I see and hear.
I smell aroma’s in the air.
The love it fills me up inside.
It gives me strength to recognize
that this mountain bears your name
and I come here without blame.
I come here without blame.

Verse One

A child to hold, here in our hearts,
where have you left us?
And how do we start to rebuild a life,
shattered and torn?
Our loss, your loss within this storm.
We will be strong within this storm.

Chorus

And in our days,
and all through our nights,
the ones that follow,
the ones we fight,
we see you in our dreams
as we sleep,
and in our hearts as they beat.
We see your face. We hear you cry.
We feel your most gentle sigh.
Where did you go a child to hold?

Verse Two

Our child to hold, have hope, now see,
love passes times test, and waits for thee.
Briefly together, moments now gone.
Our loss, your loss has weathered this storm.
We know where we belong…
outside this storm, where you were born.

Bridge

Our love, our heart, our child to hold.
Oh Lord, your child her hair, hair of gold,  dancing and playing within your sight,
a memory of hope that brightens the night.
Please bring a child to hold our hand, and share our walk upon this land.
A child to hold. Our forever child.
Our little one with joyful smiles.
(We thank you Lord for this love)
of our child to hold here and above.
And Grace is from you, You, our Lord.
The innocence of all your charms, we hold right here within our arms.
Your breath so sweet, our souls do meet.
Come back to us as life unfolds, as life unfolds.
Seeking to fill our hearts once more.
Our love has opened that forever door.
Grace has filled, filled this place and we now see, see the face,
of our child, a child to hold.
Of our child, a child to hold.
Of our, our child, a child to hold.
I am, I am, a forever child to hold.

Verse One

I began my life without knowledge.
I yearned to learn and grow each year.
Now, I’m ending life in senselessness,
my mind in one blank stare.

Chorus

Behind these golden eyes,
I lived and loved and hoped.
Beneath this wrinkled flesh,
I dance and sing.
Laughter is my wing,
and on a prayer I fly.
Although these eyes now cry,
I fly until I die.
And then I’ll fly to you on High.
On High.

Verse Two

I built my house with memories
of joy and pain, of smiles and sorrow.
Now, each moment I remembered
confuses my yesterdays with my tomorrows.

Bridge

Where do you go from this place,
where the past has been erased?
How can you run under the sun,
or swim in a sea of mystery,
when all you were, and all you are,
is written now in history.
There is only one thing that the mind can’t erase.
For the soul is a place where Christ shows His face.
And I’ll fly.
I’ll fly with a prayer of peace all sorrow to cease.
And I’ll fly home to you on High.
On High.

Verse One

Youth is a time,
when days are refined,
walking within the midst of life.
I see your face,
warmth to embrace,
dancing as the clock ticks on.

Chorus

I danced with you,
under the moon’s view,
singing a song of remembrance.
I danced with you,
our moments were few.
A dance that would last forever.

Verse Two

I learned to dance,
from your sweet glance,
as you softly guided my feet.
And I learned to sing,
of what smiles would bring,
love again when in heaven we meet.

Bridge

Did I dance with you tonight?
Why do rhythms align?
How do moments define?
Did I dance with you tonight?
No more can we dance, this dance,
the one that we knew.
The music now plays, and my heart stays
on all my dances with you.

Outro

The music now plays, and my heart stays
I danced with you tonight.

Verse One

Hold my hand.
Let your fingers slip through mine.
Hold my hand.
Our tomorrows will define our love.
Our love.

Chorus

The river rushes, rushes by,
flowing past the willows, willows sigh.
And in the moment of a kiss so sweet,
you make my life complete.
Your heart, I am amazed
keeps me safe on stormy, stormy days.
And I dwell within your eyes,
hearing sweetest, sweetest lullaby’s
of life.

Verse Two

Touch my face.
Let me feel the warmth of you.
Touch my face.
All your life fills up my view with hope.
With hope.

Bridge

In your embrace, in your touch,
you awaken what slept much.
Your love sustains
in these days of memories and summer haze.
And song,
dancing along
a crimson road of flowers,
an episode, a shower of gentle rain.
Hold me again.
Your touch remains.
Hold me again.
Hold me again.

Verse One

How did I get to this place here,
where I cannot contain all of my fear?
How can I move outside my life,
and make this leap into your heart tonight?
I’m crying out…
My soul now shouts.
Help me Lord!!!
Help me Lord!!!

Chorus

When I step into your love tonight,
my heart regains hope
in your touch, your sight.
And I feel your warmth,
your arms so light.
when I step into your love tonight.
I am loved beyond my past.
Yes, loved at last.

Verse Two

Faced with myself, my pain, tonight,
I feel the crushing surge of all this fight.
How can I move outside this guilt?
How can I move outside these walls I’ve built?
I’m crying out…
My tears now shout.
Help me Lord!!!!
Help me Lord!!!!

Bridge

Oh Lord. My Lord.
I’m crying…crying out to you.
See me tonight.
Heal my brokenness.
Heal my life.
I’m crying out to you tonight.
And in this time, I must define myself, my life.
And make a path to you this time.
Tonight.

Verse One

Did I see you standing there?
And did I see your face?
Was there Light surrounding you?
Shall all time erase?
My life? My fame?
This place? This game?

Chorus

Was it all in a dream?
Or was it part of man’s fine scheme?
Men will walk before me.
I dance upon a golden sea.
And all the silver I have fought
now has been bought, in death
been bought.

Verse Two

Silver refined by fires of hope.
Gold defined with truth.
Did I see men run away
with everything to lose.
Their life. Their claim.
All love, Their name.

Bridge

The days will fade to darkness.
The night covers the land.
And all the faces men lift up
become faces in the sand.
And in a dream I saw the Almighty’s hand
reaching for my own.
To me the Lord has shown a crown of silver
and of gold.
A life so bold, restored. I see the reason.
And winter comes in season. Was it all in a dream?

Chorus

I have seen it all in a dream?
Or is it part of man’s fine scheme?
Men will walk before me.
I dance upon a golden sea.
And all the silver has now been bought.

Verse One

Son of Man.  Where did he originate?
From the Lord God, the Father.  The Son is now living.  Yeah.
Who is this person in me?  Christ Jesus, forgiving.
Sufficient within Himself. Fruit beyond this earth’s empty wealth.
Son of Man. Fruit beyond this earth’s empty wealth.

Chorus

Oh world, you do not see him, or know him, or believe.
Christ, He is sufficient, and He origins in me.
Filling up my heart and soul. See the Light of life, see Christ.
Look into my eyes, and you can no longer deny.
What you will ultimately know. You will ultimately know.
One day, you will recognize the origin of Christ.

Verse Two

Holy Spirit.  You say a gift from God,
but also recognize Him in you.  See him, feel him fill you.
Who is this Spirit of love? Holy Spirit harvesting truth.
With your embrace, draw me near.
Transform my blood to Living Water, clear.
Holy Spirit
Transform my blood to Living Water, clear.

Bridge

One God and one Father.  Pointing all to his Son.
All Glory goes to the Father.
Perfection we attain through Christ.
And the nuptial rite now is done.
Freedom, Purity, oh Sanctify the soul in me.
The soul in me.
Come on now. Alright, can’t you see?
The origin of Christ.

Verse One

When the mountain peaks arise
I see the glory of your eyes.
The fresh and cool, reviving breeze,
it fills me up and I receive.
I live in fullness each day.
for you my Holy Lord.

Chorus

I believe in you, my Lord.
And that you’ll take me to the mountain peaks in snow.
Pure and holy night and days of agape love.
Oh I believe in you, my Lord,
my Christ.
I cry out in constant moments,
and I know that you are there.

Verse Two

I watched the Father point to His Son.
I saw him stand to defend me.
The Christ in awesome beauty
upon his golden throne.
Reflecting, protecting
all that I believe.

Bridge

I believed from the moment that I heard your love.
I believed that you would come for me.
I knew your face, your love filled me,
and I believed in what you would bring.
I believe in you,
in the moon and stars as they dance across the midnight sky.
I believe in Light, in freedom, in the ecstasy of you.
And in the morning I can see
what you have sent to me.
I can see your will for me today.
I believe, oh Lord,
Oh, I believe my Lord.
I see myself in all your work.
Now I know who I can be,
for I’ve been made anew.
Because I believe in you.

Verse One

You stand before my face.
In shamed disgrace before my face.
Illusionary magnitude.
I shall conclude with you before my face.
You gaze into my soul.
And what would be your goal.
For my soul. Drifting days, one lost way.
You gaze into my soul.

Chorus

And in this sorrow that I feel.
I know that you have lost the real.
Listening to the ones
who could not understand the love.
You listened with an itching ear.
Seeking all you loved to hear.
You stand before my face without a single trace of love.
Alright. Alright.

Verse Two

You look into my eyes
wearing a cold disguise into my eyes.
Selective congregation.
With a splendid reputation before my eyes.
You gaze into my soul.
And what would be your goal.
For my soul. Drifting days, one lost way.
You gaze into my soul.

Bridge

You stand, you look, you listen.
Feeding competition, you create.
A calamity of faith.
For what should have been has now become.
Your fate. Bred within your hate.

Verse Three

You laugh upon my life.
As you severe with your knife. My life.
Hilarity in portion.
Confounded contortion. My life.
But did you watch or hear? For that would make it clear. My life,
Lived not for here, but there, and endless without fear.
My life.

Verse One

I can walk the sands of deserts dry.
Swim many waters, in suffering cry.
I can gracefully fly like a noble bird. And under my wings,
I carry the Word.

Chorus

But I need you to heal me
with your majesty.
Let my lame legs walk so free.
Touch my blindness with your hope
and heal my deaf ears
so I can cope.
Heal me
and come to my rescue.
In the Father’s Will
to my rescue.

Verse Two

I can hear you from mountains high.
From rivers wild, from deep blue sky.
I can feel you holding me, from oceans wide
to precious seas.

Bridge

And with my lame legs,
I’ll climb that peak.
I’ll rise to heights,
my body weak.
And with my blind eyes
I’ll see your face.
I’ll set my sails
upon your Grace.
My ears shall never hear a voice unless it’s yours.
My guiding choice.
My mute words will sing to you.
You’ll hear my songs.
Know what they do.

Heal me
and come to my rescue.
In the Father’s Will
to my rescue.

Verse One

The oceans bright shore,
It is one thing I adore.
It gifts me with waves
As they rise with foaming crests.
Looking out to an infinite Light,
the horizons at one with my sight.
Glorified, your precious Son.
Each day is new.

Chorus

I see your love.
I stand before you Lord above.
I come here to humbly tell you
That I’ve sinned.
My Christ, I am not worthy.
But only through you can I be.
Perfect, complete, forgiven.
Jesus, save me.

Verse Two

The sands against time.
They bear the print, your lifeline.
They tell the story of peace.
The truth that you brought.
And now I finally see,
that in my death I will be.
Resurrected, in glory.
The winds within me.

Bridge

Through your seas, I become who I am.
It’s all that you intended, my precious Lamb.
I’m here and I give my life,
My love. My heart.
Living within your sight,
Your infiltrating, Holy Light.
Death is defeated by Life.
Life through Your Blood.

I see your love.
As I stand before you Lord above.
Now I’m perfect, complete, forgiven.
I see your love.
As I stand before you Lord above.
Jesus, save me.

Verse One

My Abba, My Father, I will always worship you.
With all my heart, the breath within me.
I give all myself just to be with thee.
Your Spirit, it fills me, comfort all of my fears.
Seeing in me all that can be.
With strength I come to serve you God.

Chorus

Here I am before Your great throne.
Humble, yet willing.
In Christ, I have grown.
I am your living, holy sacrifice.
Aromas I offer before my Lord’s eyes.
Here’s my spirit worshiping You.

My Abba, My Father.

Verse Two

Creator of all things. You saw in me there was good.
No one could hold, words, oh so bold.
Ones that seek to move my, my very soul.
El Shaddai, all power. Thanks be to You for all my life.
Father of me, witness and see.
That my love for You is whole and living.

Bridge

Almighty, Almighty.
Father, my God. I love You.
Honor and Praise.
Eternal days.
Together shared in glory true.
Oh Heavenly Father, I lift You up with my eyes.
Christ Jesus saved me, and now I am free.
El Shaddai, Adoni.

Chorus

Here I am before Your great throne.
Humble, yet willing.
In Christ, I have grown.
I am your living, holy sacrifice.
Aromas I offer before my Lord’s eyes.
Here’s my spirit worshiping You.

Verse One

Confused by what he’d learned
what he believed throughout his life.
He sought the Word of God.
He sought the face of Christ.
Coming closer every day,
he thirsted truth with hope.
Forgiving his past sins,
he learned now how to cope.

Chorus

It was when he saw the variant
that the colors would fade.
His face lost its shine.
Which is the first tragic sign,
when the brilliant colors fade.

Verse Two

Growing in love of God with faith,
and overcoming each day.
He played into their hands,
believing what people say.
He struggled to stand up again,
but was knocked right off his feet.
He couldn’t make it back,
purposeless defeat.

Bridge

It’s easy to see.
It’s easy to learn.
But never is it easy.
When from the sword you turn.
He gave up his life
for the people that he knew.

He thought he could continue
in God’s Holy view..
But the colors did fade.
Choices were made.

Verse One

There was a broken child who didn’t see it.
Sitting all alone, no one to reach,
Never understanding it at all.
This was to be his greatest fall.

Chorus

Throughout life he was asleep.
Not a word of truth to keep.
Loneliness, no hope of change. Bearing his own childbirth pains.
Where on earth will he end up? May he drink peace from this cup?
Hold on to Today.
Follow death’s own living way.

Verse Two

There was a broken child who grew up sadly.
Making the mistakes that would destroy
All of him, all of his love.
No blessed worship from above.

Bridge

This young boy, he grew up to be a man chained by spiritual grief,
Anger, hatred, ignorance.
And I can speak about his plight, for I knew his lonely flight.
Yet, from the darkness, he emerged,
My life of misery,
now purged.

Chorus

Throughout life, I was asleep.
Not a word of truth for me to keep.
Loneliness, no hope of change, Bearing my own childbirth pains.
Where on earth will I end up? May I drink peace from this cup?
I know I’ll hold on to Today.
I followed death’s own living way.
Halleluiah

Halleluiah

I know I’ll hold on to Today.
I followed death’s own living way.

Verse One

The beginning of hate.
It began with me.
The day I nailed you,
to that dogwood tree.
I can boast of your death,
and that I have sinned.
But I knew of your pain,
as the people, they grinned.

Chorus

I persecuted.
The one I should have loved.
The only one who brought me
To see beyond. Beyond this earth,
into another place.

Where peace is a breath,
and Grace abides.
I should have seen right through what I despised.

Verse Two

The nails that I hammered.
Straight into your feet.
No bones had shattered,
destiny to meet.
I watched as the sweat,
and the blood ran down.
Blurring your vision
of the people standing around you.

Bridge

And then the moment, it came so quick.
Your final breath, made me feel sick.
Now this eternal, crushing pain.
It plagues my heart. Am I insane?
I saw you leave this wretched earth.
I wonder how I find my worth?
For I let you die.
Arrogantly, I stood by.
Watching with my angry eyes.
My guilty hands, they let you die…
For me.

Verse One

The measure of my heart is purity.
When in recognition I flee.
I run into the Light,
away from the night.
For this is my year of jubilee,
and I see it is the measure.
The weighing of my wealth that delivers me this treasure.
As Christ Jesus helps me check myself.

Chorus

I am in Christ,
where I stand for life.
Never again want to be measured by man’s invalidity.
Measure me by my heart, Lord.
Balance my weights for thee.
So in the presence of the blind and deaf,
my Christ,
you will sanctify me.

Of Measure.

Verse Two

The measure of my heart, the rod shall whip.
In awe, as the blood of life will drip.
Through all that is insane,
I struggle with the pain,
and bow down in humble worship.
For I now know it is the measure of the things I hear and see.
I am basking in this pleasure,
as Christ Jesus pulls the weights for me.

Bridge

I transformed my life,
when I no longer saw man’s standards on me,
than I released the law.
Moving within wisdom,
Spirit fill my days.
Men of honor by my side,
fighting for the Way.

Praise Him.
Praise Him.

Of Measure.
