Amazing Grace Lyrics
I grew this heart into a drifter
I never felt the roots I bare
I sold my sight, oh brother, sister
For a mountain of fool's gold, it's gone
Only God knows, God knows where
My soul was restless for redemption
My feet were lookin' for a place to stand
Well, I ain't got no life
And
Art In Me Lyrics
Images on the sidewalk speak of dream's decent
Washed away by storms to graves of cynical lament
Dirty canvases to call my own
Protest limericks carved by the old pay phone
In your picture book I'm trying hard to see
Turning endless pages of this tragedy
Sculpting every move you
Blind Lyrics
Cynical, just your way
You play the doubting Thomas
Feel the scars and wipe the stains
So you fight, and retreat
And talk yourself out of believing
in any peace that you can't see
Blind words you call
Blind words will fall
You're logical, you can't find
any reason to believe i
Boy On A String Lyrics
The marionetter has your number
Pulling your arms and legs till you can't stand on your own
Dragging your conscience on the stage
and your heart gets rearranged
and you cannot tell your mentor from your Maker
Look at the crowds bleeding with laughter
Over the way you entertain at
Can't Erase It Lyrics
God, I admit I haven't changed
Playing card houses still covering my landscape
I never expected You to stay
When I'm grabbing for these crumbs and cold loose change
I feel Your grace come running over every road
I love the way You're calling overflow
I feel Your grace come runni
Collide Lyrics
Open up your box of sunshine
And smile as confetti comes raining down on you
You feel a lot like the good guy, but do you know why
Everything's so blue
Well, love is fire and the coals are barely burning
Cold fills the emptiness that fills this empty place
I taught you the walk b
Crazy Times Lyrics
You're cold that way
And that's why you say
The things that you say
You can't attract
The things that you lack
You're trying in vain
[Chorus:]
It seems it's always the crazy times
You find you'll wake up and realize
It takes more than your saline eyes
To make things righ
Disappear Lyrics
[verse]
I watch you smile
You steal the show
You take a bow
The curtain falls in front of you
You're magical, on display
I gaze into your eyes and
You turn to look the other way
[chorus]
But I'd really love to know
I'd really love to climb
My way into your heart

Everything In Between Lyrics
Must have thought I was so strong
Might have ever thought I was the one for this all along
But I can't even dream
Or imagine how it seems
To carry the weight of this crown
[Chorus:]
It's not as easy as it seems
To carry the weight of your dreams
Hiding in the shadows

Fade To Grey Lyrics
It's not hard to know what you're thinking
When you look down on me now
Your trance of love is seeking
To turn this world around
But in my state of blind confusion
No God can pull me out
I see your love is willing
To turn me inside out
And then I see you there
The lonely tears I
Faith Enough Lyrics
The ice is thin enough for walkin'
The rope is worn enough to climb
My throat is dry enough for talkin'
The world is crumblin' but I know why
The world is crumblin' but I know why
The storm is wild enough for sailing
The bridge is weak enough to cross
This body frail enough for
Famous Last Words Lyrics
You say you heard every word, but I watched you turn away
Your eyes grew colder than winter
"Love is so intrusive," I thought I heard you say
And laugh so unconvincingly
Famous last words, "I'm not ready yet"
"I won't be gone a minute"
Narrow is the road and too high a price to
Five Candles (You Were There) Lyrics
A promise or a dare
I would jump if I knew you'd catch me
Staring over the edge
I can't tell if you'll be here for me
I close my eyes and make a wish
Turn out the lights and take a breath
Pray that when the wick is burned
You would say that it's all about love
[Chorus:]
Flood Lyrics
Rain, rain on my face
It hasn't stopped raining for days
My world is a flood
Slowly I become one with the mud
[Chorus:]
But if I can't swim after forty days
and my mind is crushed by the thrashing waves
Lift me up so high that I cannot fall
Lift me up
Lift me up - when I
Fly Lyrics
[verse]
Be still
Let your hand melt into mine
The part of me
That breathes when you breathe
Is losing time
I can't find the words to say
I'll never say goodbye
[chorus]
And I'll fly with you
Through the night so you know
I'm not letting go
I'm not letting go

Four Seven Lyrics
We have this treasure
in earthen vessels
to show that this power
is from God, and not from us
Frail Lyrics
Convinced of my deception
I've always been a fool
I fear this love reaction
Just like you said I would
A rose could never lie
About the love it brings
And I could never promise
To be any of those things
[Chorus:]
If I was not so weak
If I was not so cold
If I was not so

To save us all from Satan's pow'r
When we had gone astray

O tidings of comfort and joy!

Goodbye, Goodnight Lyrics
A flower for your vanity, a penny for your thoughts
About the world's insanity and how we've gotten lost
Strike up the band to play a song as we go waltzing by
And fake a smile as we all say goodbye
Goodbye, oh goodbye
Say a prayer for recognition, kiss the ones you love

Grace Lyrics
God, I admit I haven't changed

I never expected You to stay
When I'm grabbing for these crumbs and cold loose change

I love the way You're calling overflow
I feel Your grace come runni
Hand Lyrics
I'm here waiting for something new to break my heart
So callous laden, I can't feel a thing at all
Will You catch my fall?
From lost and not found, to run and not hide
My hand inside... (Your hand)
Fear is keeping time with the beating of my heart
Doin' way too much thinkin'

He Lyrics
Don't try to reach me, I'm already dead
The pain when it grips me, for things that I've done
Well I try to make you proud, but for crying out loud
Just give me a chance to hide away
Exhaustion takes over, will this someday be over?
[Chorus:]
Fearful tears are running do
Hymn Lyrics
Oh refuge of my hardened heart
Oh fast pursuing lover come
As angels dance 'round Your throne
My life by captured fare You own
Not silhouette of trodden faith
Nor death shall not my steps be guide
I'll pirouette upon mine grave
For in Your path I'll run and hide
[Chorus:]
I Need You Lyrics
[verse]
Strangely out of place
There's a light filling this room
Where none would follow before
I can't deny it burns me up inside
I fan the flames to melt
Away my pride
Do I want shelter from the rain
Or the rain to wash me way?
[chorus]
I need you, I need you, I
I'm Alright Lyrics
It was the fear of God that led me to you
And it's the fear of you that takes getting used to
I've never been one to hang my heart on a thread
But you spun me around and you loved me instead
I know I could turn to something other than you
'Cause I don't understand you and why yo
I'm In The Way Lyrics
You sit and stare out at the sky
And think of ways to fake a smile
But life is never what it seems
Sometimes it only take a while
I'm in the way of fallin' down
I won't let you go that far now
I'm in the way of fallin' down
I won't let you got that far now
If you think that hop
If I Stand Lyrics
There's more that rises in the morning than the sun
And more that shines in the night than just the moon
There's more than just this fire here that keeps me warm
In a shelter that is larger than this room
And there's a loyalty that's deeper than mere sentiments
And a music h
Jealous Kind Lyrics
I built another temple to a stranger
I gave away my heart to the rushing wind
I set my course to run right into danger
Sought the company of fools instead of friends
You know I've been unfaithful
Lovers in lines
While you're turning over tables with the rage of a jealous kind

Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet Lyrics
"We originally heard this song on a Gavin Bryars recording.
It was a 72 minute loop of a homeless man singing this simple chorus over and over.
The contrast of one so lowly expressing such certaina nd simple faith was and continues to be nothing short of astounding.
The power of
Lesser Things Lyrics
It looks a lot like givin' up
Peace we bring is a bitter cup
Set our bodies down like offerings
While we pray to the god of lesser things
If the wind should shake this house apart
The cradle hits the ground with a broken heart
Will we say we never knew a thing?
While we pray to
Like A Child Lyrics
Dear God, surround me as I speak,
the bridges that I walk across are weak
Frustrations fill the void that I can't solely bear
Dear God, don't let me fall apart,
you've held me close to you
I have turned away and searched for answers I can't understand
[Chorus:]
They say
Liquid Lyrics
Arms nailed down,
are you telling me something?
Eyes turned out,
are you looking for someone?
This is the one thing,
The one thing that I know.
Blood-stained brow,
are you dying for nothing?
Flesh and blood,
is it so elemental?
This is the one thing,
The one thing that I know.
Little Drummer Boy Lyrics
Come, they told me (pa-rum-pa-pum-pum)
A newborn king to see (pa-rum-pa-pum-pum)

So, to honor Him (pa-rum-pa-pum-pum)

Lonely People Lyrics
This is for all the lonely people
Thinkin' that life has passed them by
Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup
Ride that highway in the sky
This is for all the single people
Thinkin' life has left them dry
Don't give up until you drink from the silver cup

Love Song For A Savior Lyrics
In open fields of wild flowers,
she breathes the air and flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
in no simple language
Someday she'll understand the meaning of it all
He's more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on he
Much Afraid Lyrics
Empty again
Sunken down so far
So scared to fall
I might not get up again
So I lay at your feet
All my brokenness
I carry all of my burdens to you
[Chorus:]
All of these things
I've held up in vain
No reason nor rhyme
Just the scars that remain
Of all of these things

My Heavenly Lyrics
Let the wind fall wild across my path
Even though we barely move, there's no turning back
There is a river, there is a road, place of holy riches untold
It's where I'm supposed to be... my heavenly
I know it never feels right to let go of the safety we're used to holding so tigh
Needful Hands Lyrics
For those under the clouds
Staring up in awesome wonder
As tears come slowly down
I'm reaching up a needful hand
[Chorus:]
You are my eyes when I cannot see
You are my voice, see, sing through me
You are my strength in weakness be
To find that I could fall
And still you
No One Loves Me Like You Lyrics
Collapsing was much softer
Still falling always hurt
Only after sensing your love
For always ever burned
You justified my folly
My affluent disguise
Removed revealing nothing
Yet nothing unforgiven lies
Unforgiven lies
No one loves me like you
No one loves me the way you do
No o
Only Alive Lyrics
I'm a fair weather friend
I'm a colorless view but I'm willin' to make a deal
If you think you can make some faith here inside
I'll drive off and marry you
I'm only alive with you
I can't get by and I won't get through
So put me in the river and let me say I do
I'm only alive wi
Overjoyed Lyrics
You name me
Who am I
That I should company with something so divine?
Mercy waits, Overjoyed
Prospect of finding, freeing
Freeing me

Love is the thing this time I'm sure
And I couldn't need you more now
The way that you saw things were so pure

Portrait Of An Apology Lyrics
Look what I've done
This picture I've painted
It looks like my heart
Or what still remains
Convinced of the weight
Your interpretations
Are not what I see
I wish they could be
I remember it much redder
I remember it much brighter
[Chorus:]
Can you stay for a while

Revolution Lyrics
[verse]
Peace takes a taxi
To the underground
I wanna love the world
But I don't know how
Blame it on the d.j.
Playin' all the fast songs
Ain't spinnin' anything
That I can sing along

So if you know the words
Then try to sing along

River Constantine Lyrics
Carry me, Your love is wider than my need could ever be
Come to me, and I will walk along Your shore
Feel Your crashing waves sing in time with the music of my heart
Pour out, come down on me
Pour out, come down on me
River deep, could I know You as well as You know me

Rose Colored Stained Glass Windows Lyrics
Another sleepy Sunday, safe within the walls
Outside a dying world in desperation calls
But no-one hears the cries, or knows what they're about
The doors are locked within, or is it from, without...
[Chorus:]
Looking through rose colored stained glass windows
Never allow
Sad Clown Lyrics
Say how's the weather, so I look out the window
To brighten my soul, but I can't control the rain
That keeps falling
Smile on the outside that never comes in
A comedy, mystery, irony, tragedy
So I scream "let the show begin"
You break me open, turn on the light
Stumble inside wi
Scarlet Lyrics
[verse]
If I was your love
I would want only you
I'd lay at this alter
Give all I am, all that is true
[chorus]
And this old scarlet letter won't
Keep me from holding you
And there is nothing you can do
Nothing you do
Nothing you do

Show You Love Lyrics
Speak- say the words that no one else will ever say
Love- love like the world we know is over in a day
I'm gonna show you a love in every language
I'm gonna speak with the words that need no form
I'm gonna give you what you never had before
You're beautiful and I am weakened by
Silence Lyrics
[verse]
Take
Take till there's nothing
Nothing to turn to
Nothing when you get through
Won't you break
Scattered pieces of all I've been
Bowing to all I've been
Running to
Where are you?
Where are you?
[verse]
Did you leave me unbreakable?
You leave me frozen?

Sing Lyrics
I love the way, the way you carry on
You make me wanna say, you make me wanna sing another love song
Sing another love song, sing another love song
Sing another love song to you
Bury my head for the shame, you pick me pup, you say I look like you
Though it makes no sense to me,
Sinking Lyrics
It's not my problem anymore
You see it never really was
So you can stop 'caring' as you call it
and I'll be fine right here
You see that I can play a pretty convincing role
So I don't need you, I don't think I need you
[Chorus:]
But you see through my forever lies

Something Beautiful Lyrics
[verse]
If you put your arms around me
Could it change the way I feel
I guess I let myself believe
That the outside might just
Bleed it's way in
Maybe stir the sleeping past
Lying under glass
Waiting for the kiss
That breaks this awful spell
Pull me out...of this lonely ce
Sunny Days Lyrics
Sunny days keepin' the clouds away
I think we're coming to a clearing and a brighter day
So far away. Still I think they say
The wait will make the heart grow stronger or fonder
I can't quite remember anyway
So if you're waitin' for love
Well it's a promise I'll keep
If you do
Tea And Sympathy Lyrics
Fare thee well
Trade in all our words for tea and sympathy
Wonder why we tried, for things that could never be
Play our hearts lament, like an unrehearsed symphony
Not intend
To leave this castle full of empty rooms
Our love the captive in the tower never rescued
And all the vic
The Chair Lyrics
She always knew the things to say
She had a smile to end a frown
Sometimes it seems she didn't notice
Sometimes she dreams
Sometimes she tries to dance
She calls out "Hi Ho Silver" from her chair
She dreams of somehow saving the day
The chair a pressing door left open
Her heart
The Edge Of Water Lyrics
[verse]
Have you ever been haunted
The way I've been by you?
And have you ever felt
The measure of the days
That I've spent waiting
Pining for you?

I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel Your breath
For the wind
I don't want to step from

The Eleventh Hour Lyrics
[verse]
Trace the shape of my heart
Till it becomes more familiar
To your eyes
I've been lost without you
Cold without your love
It's taken days and nights
To make me realize

Rescue me from hanging on this line
I won't give up on giving you
The chance to b
These Ordinary Days Lyrics
[verse]
Not much for conversation
I still find need to pray
Sometimes I get tired of walking
Through these ordinary days
If nothing else I get to see you
Even if we never speak
The harm of words though sometimes
We don't quite know
What they really mean
[chorus]

Trouble Is Lyrics
My wings don't sail me to the sky
On my own these wings won't fly
Jesus told me so
Still I'm not so sure that I know
Can't find no rest for my soul
Can't find no rest on my own
Jesus told me so
Still I'm not so sure that I know
Man, the trouble is
We don't know who we are inste
Truce Lyrics
Faultless in the eyes that I could never open wide enough to see me through
Much to my surprise it never orbits around the things you should hold me to
I stand here...wondering
And I'm waiting

My ear is twisted in all the thoughts
A glimpse of truce just becau
Unforgetful You Lyrics
I never minded calling You a King
If that meant that I could count on You
To give me everything
I never thought to ask You
I always thought You knew
It was never my intention to question You
You never minded calling me a child
Well, I guess that's how I acted all the while
But Yo
Weighed Down Lyrics
Light of the world
Are you still here?
And are we illuminating?
When love becomes a delicate display
So weak, dissolved by anything
Love lies here waiting all alone
Can a king be a king
Weighed down?
Our hearts, a bubble maker's dream
Moved on by winds of everything
As we deny
Whatever She Wants Lyrics
[verse]
All her wants to fill a need
She wants to save you with
Her bandages after she makes
You bleed
Like a vampire, a parasite
Stretch the necks of her victims
She finds her prey in broad

So when you're up, she's down
You're down, she's up
It whips around, it's
Worlds Apart Lyrics
I am the only one to blame for this
Somehow it all adds up the same
Soaring on the wings of selfish pride
I flew too high and like Icarus I collide
With a world I try so hard to leave behind
To rid myself of all but love
to give and die
To turn away and not become
Another nail t
