The taste of my tears
The day I watched you drift away
And I remember
Before you disappeared
I started hoping for the day
When I'd see your face
And look in your eyes
Feel your embrace
And we'd never say goodbye
I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
Everytime the morning sky
Begins to glow
I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And i will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope
I am learning
I'm learning as I go
Just how thankful hope can be
The ache of yearning
Can never let you go
It has become a part of me
But pure are the longings
Holding on and holding out
I'll keep holding to the one thing
I know I can not live without
I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
Everytime the morning sky
Begins to glow
I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And i will not let it die
Because it's more
Than something I believe in
It's a song that makes me dance
When my feet refuse to move
It's the wind that bumps the water
That I can not get through
I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
Everytime the morning sky
Begins to glow
I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And I will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope
I will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope
I will not let it die
It's keeping faith alive
It's the heartbeat of hope
Keep it alive
The heartbeat of hope
I will not let it die
No, I will not let it die
Keep it alive
Keep alive
The heartbeat of hope

In a one bedroom apartment
On the humble side of town
There stands a little Christmas tree
Looks a lot like Charlie Brown's
And underneath there's one little gift for him
And one little gift for her

After six months on the new job
They're still barely getting by
So in the way of decorations
There's nothing there to catch your eye
But both of them
Would be the first to say
We're together
We're gonna have the merriest Christmas
Anyway

'Cause Christmas is all in the heart
That's where the feeling starts
And like a fire inside
It touches every heart
And even if no white snow falls
That's all right because
The joy can still be found
Wherever you are
'Cause Christmas is all
It's all in the heart

Two little blonde haired boys with big dreams
Tried to sleep but sleep wouldn't come
We'd be tearing into presents
Long before the break of dawn
With Mom and Dad and cameras making sure
We'd never forget that day

Now I'm the one who's taking pictures
In the middle of the night
Of my own blonde headed dreamers
That just can't wait until daylight
And in my sleepy eyes
The spark still glows
Well I guess there's just some things
A kid never outgrows

'Cause Christmas is all in the heart
That's where the feeling starts
And like a fire inside
It touches every part
Christmas is all in the heart
And even if no white snow falls
That's okay because
The joy can still be found
Wherever you are
'Cause Christmas is all
It's all in the heart

No, it's not in the snow
That may or may not fall
And it's not in the gifts
Around the tree
It's in the love heaven gave
The night our Savior came
And that same love
Can still be found where ever you are
'Cause Christmas is all in the heart
It's all in the heart

Carol Of The Bells
Hark how the bells,
sweet silver bells,
all seem to say,
throw cares away

Christmas is here,
bringing good cheer,
to young and old,
meek and the bold,

Oh how they pound,
raising the sound,
o'er hill and dale,
telling their tale,

Gaily they ring
while people sing
songs of good cheer,
Christmas is here,

Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas,
On on they send ,
on without end,
their joyful tone to every home
Dong Ding dong ding, dong Bong

O come, O come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear

Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to Thee, O Israel
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
Shall come to Thee, O Israel

I found You in the most unlikely way

But really it was You who found me

And I found myself in the gifts that You gave

You gave me so much and I


I wish You could stay

but I'll, I'll wait for the day


And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring

And I'll be remembering You

Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing

and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You


From the first moment when I heard Your name

Something in my heart came alive

You showed me love and no words could explain

A love with the power to

Open the door

To a world I was made for


And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring

And I'll be remembering You

Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing

and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You


The dark night, the hard fight

The long climb up the hill knowing the cost

The brave death, the last breathe

The silence whispering all hope was lost

The thunder, the wonder

A power that brings the dead back to life


I wish You could stay

But I'll wait for the day

And though You've gone away

You come back and


And I watch as the cold winter melts into spring

And I'll be remembering You

Oh and I'll smell the flowers and hear the birds sing

and I'll be remembering You, I'll be remembering You


And I'll watch as the sun fills a sky that was dark

And I'll be remembering You

And I'll think of the way that You fill up my heart

And I'll be remembering You


I'll be remembering You

I'll be remembering You

I'll be remembering You


I'll be remembering You

That's not say another word, we don't need to question why
Let us pass through this moment like a candle in the night
We don't need to wave me back, this is not a final song
Even though in a sadness to makes me fall

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

How much pain must we taste, how much sorrow must we know
Will be only nothing losing, how to cherish when we go
How agony is like the wind, we can hold it in our hands
In the light of a new day, we will understand

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May god hold you in the center of his hand

The long awaited rains
Have fallen hard upon the thirsty ground
Have carved their way to where
The wild and rushing river can be found
And like the rains
I have been carried here to where the river flows, yeah
My heart is racing and my knees are weak
As I walk to the edge
I know there is no turning back
Once my feet have left the ledge
And in the rush I hear a voice
That's telling me it's time to take a leap of faith
So here I go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

There is a supernatural power
In this mighty river’s flow
It can bring the dead to life
And it can fill an empty soul
And give a heart the only thing
Worth living and worth dying for
But we will never know the awesome power
Of the grace of God
Until we let ourselves get swept away
Into this holy flood
So if you'll take my hand
We'll close our eyes and count to three
And take the leap of faith
Come on let's go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

Well, the day has just begun
And I'm already running late
With too many irons in the fire
And too much on my plate
I'd be pulling out my hair
If I could just get one hand free
And I'd stop this world
If I could find the key

What I feel
Is telling me I'm going crazy
But what is real
Says God's still on His throne
What I need
Is to remember one thing:
That the Lord of the gentle breeze
Is Lord of the rough and tumble
And He is the King of the jungle

People say this world's a jungle
And sometimes I must admit
I'd be scared to death
If I did not know who was king of it
But the truth is God created
This whole world with His own hand
So everything is under His command, and...

What I feel
Is telling me this world's gone crazy
But what is real
Says God's still on His throne
What I need
Is to remember one thing:
That the Lord of the gentle breeze
Is Lord of the rough and tumble
And He is the King of the jungle

K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
He's king of creation
K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
Ruler of all of the sky and the sea
K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
He's always in control
K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
He is the King of kings
K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
He's sitting on the throne
K-i-n-g of the j-u-n-g-l-e
He is the King of kings

Today I watched in silence as people passed me by,
And I strained to see if there was something hidden in their eyes;
But they all looked at me as if to say
Life just goes on.

The old familiar story told in different ways,
Make the most of your own journey from the cradle to the grave;
Dream your dreams tomorrow because today
Life must go on.

CHORUS
But there’s more to this life than living and dying,
More than just trying to make it through the day;
More to this life, more than these eyes alone can see,
And there’s more than this life alone can be.

Tonight he lies in silence staring into space,
And looks for ways to make tomorrow better than today,
But in the morning light it looks the same;
Life just goes on.

He takes care of his family, he takes care of his work,
And every Sunday morning he takes his place at the church;
And somehow he still feels a need to search,
But life just goes on.

(chorus)

So where do we start to find every part
Of what makes this life complete;
If we turn our eyes to Jesus we’ll find
Life’s true beginning is there at the cross where He died.
He died to bring us . . .

(chorus)

I know you've heard the stories
but they all sound too good to be true
you've heard about a place called home
but there doesn't seem to be one for you

so one more night
you cry yourself to sleep
and drift off to a distant dream

where love takes you in
and everything changes
a miracle starts
with the beat of a heart

when love takes you home
and says you belong here
the loneliness ends
and a new life begins
when love takes you in

and somewhere while you're sleeping
someone else is greaming too
counting down the days until
they hold you cloes and say i love you

and like the rain that falls into the sea
in a moment what has been
is lost in what will be

when love takes you in
everything changes
a miracle starts
with the beat of heart
and this love will never let you go

there is nothing that could ever
cause this love to lose its hold

when love takes you in
everthing changes
a miracle start
with the beat of a heart

when love takes you home
and says you belong here
the loneliness ends
and a new life begins

when love takes you in
it takes you in for good
when love takes you in -

I pull over to the side of the road and I
watch the cars pass me by
The headlights and the black limousines tell me
Someone is saying goodbye
I bow my head and I whisper a prayer, "Father,
Comfort Their broken hearts"
And as I drive away there's a thought that I
I cannot escape, no I,
Cannot escape this thought
I can't get away

*
Oh, if this should be my last day on this earth
How then shall I live?
Oh, if this should be the last day that I have
Before I breathe the air of Heaven
Let me live it with abandon to
The only thing(one) that remiains
After my last day here on earth

* *
If this should be my last day here on earth
If this should be my last day here on earth
If this should be my last, last day here on earth
And if tomorrow comes to find me
Looking in the face of Jesus
Will I hear Him say the words "well done"?

*
* * *
If this should me my last day here on earth
If this should be my last, last day here on earth
'Cause this could be my last
This could be my last
This could be my last day

1. I saw the face of Jesus
In a little orphan girl
She was standing in the corner
On the other side of the world
And I heard the voice of Jesus
Gently whisper to my heart
Didn`t you say you wanted to find Me
Well, here I am
Here you are

* So what now
What will you do now you`ve found Me
What now
What will you do with this treasure you`ve found
I know I may not look like what you expected
But if you`ll remember
This is right where I said I would be
You found Me
What now

2. And I saw the face of Jesus
Down on Sixteenth Avenue
He was sleeping in an old car
While his mom went looking for food
And I heard the voice of Jesus
Gently whisper to my soul
Didn`t you say you wanted to know me
Well, here I am
And it`s getting cold

So come and know
Come and know, know me now
Come, come and know, know me now
Oh, come and know
Come, come and know, know me now
Come, come and know, know me now

I watch you looking out
Across the raging water
So sure your only hope
Lies on the other side
You hear the enemy
That’s closing in around you
And I know
That you don’t have the strength to fight
But do you
Have the faith to stand (and)

Believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now
Believe me now

I am the one who waved my hand
And split the ocean
I am the One
Who spoke the words and raised the dead
And I’ve loved you long before
I set the world in motion
I know all the fears you’re feeling now
But do you remember who I am?

Will you believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now

Believe it’s true
I have never I never will abandon you
And the God that I have always been
I will forever be
So believe me now

I am the God
Who never wastes a single hurt
That you endure
My words are true
And all My promises are sure
So believe me now
Oh believe me now

So believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now
Believe it’s true
I never have, I never will abandon you
And the God that I have always been
I will forever be
So believe me now
Believe me now
Believe me now

Was God smiling
When he spoke the words
That made the world
And did he cry about the flood
What does God’s voice sound like
When he sings, when he’s angry
These are just a few things
That the angels have on me

Well I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things the angels long
To look into
And I know things
Angels only wish they knew

I have seen the dark and desperate place
Where sin will take you
I’ve felt loneliness and shame
And I have watched
the blinding light of grace
Come breaking through with a sweetness
Only tasted by the forgiven and redeemed

Still I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things
the angels long to look into
And I know things
The angels only wish they knew

And someday I’ll sit down
with my angel friends
Up in heaven
They’ll tell me about creation
And I’ll tell them a story about grace

Well I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things the angels long
To look into
And I know things
Angels only wish they knew

Verse 1:
Aren't you the little one
That hid in my arms afraid of the thunder
Are these the little hands
That held so tight to mine

Didn't we both agree you'd never grow up
And now here we are, and here you go
Of all the things I want to say
The thing you really need to know is...

Chorus A:
I believe in you
I believe in you
Everything you are
Everything you are becoming

And I believe in you
I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I always believe in you

Verse 2:
So many prayers we've prayed
so many dreams to get to this moment
Now this is where we stay
While you go change the world

But I'll be where I have always been
Up in the stands cheering you on and singing this song
A song the very God who made you
Has been singing all along

Chorus B:
I believe in you
Yeah, I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I will always believe in you

Bridge:
And when you rise and when you fall
I'll still believe in you
Just close your eyes and hear me calling
I believe in You
Oh, I believe in you

Tomorrow morning if you wake up and the sun does not
appear I...I will be here
if in the dark we loose sight of love hold my hand and have no fear I...I will be here

chorus

refran

I will be true to the promise I have made to you and to the
me who gave you to me I will be here well be together

You spoke and made the sunrise, to light up the very first day
You breathed across the water, and started the very first wave
It was You
You intoduced Your glory, to every living creature on earth
And they started singing, the first song to ever be heard
They sang for You

You make all things new
You make all things new

Then the world was broken, fallen and battered and scarred
You took the hopeless, the life, wasted, ruined and marred
And made it new

You make all things new
You make all things new
You redeem and You transform
You renew and You restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

You turn winter into spring
You take every living thing
And You breathe Your breath of life into it over and over again

You make the sunrise, day after day after day
But there′s a morning coming, when old things will all pass away
And everyone will see

You make all things new
You make all things new
Come redeem and come transform
Come renew and come restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

Now and forever You are making all things new
You′re making all things new

Hallelujah...

Imagine this, I get a phone call from Regis
He says, 'Do you want to be a millionare?'
They put me on the show and I win with two lifelines to spare
Now picture this, I act like nothin' ever happened
And bury all my money in a coffee can
Well, I've been given more than Regis ever gave away
I was a dead man who was called to come out of my grave
And I think it's time for makin' some noise

[chorus]
Wake the neighbors, get the word out
Come on, crank up the music, climb a mountain and shout
This is life we've been given, meant to be lived out
So la, la, la, la, live out loud, yeah
Live out loud, yeah, yeah

Think about this, try to keep a bird from singing
After it's soared up in the sky
Give the sun a cloudless day and tell it not to shine
Now think about this, if we really have been given
The gift of a life that will never end
And if we have been filled with living hope, we're gonna overflow
And if God's love is burning in our hearts, we're gonna glow
There's just no way to keep it in

[chorus]

Everybody
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, live out loud
I want to hear everybody sing
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, live out loud, loud loud

Every corner of Creation is a living declaration
Come join the song we were made to sing

[chorus]

That's not say another word, we don't need to question why
Let us pass through this moment like a candle in the night
We don't need to wave me back, this is not a final song
Even though in a sadness to makes me fall

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

How much pain must we taste, how much sorrow must we know
Will be only nothing losing, how to cherish when we go
How agony is like the wind, we can hold it in our hands
In the light of a new day, we will understand

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May god hold you in the center of his hand

That's not say another word, we don't need to question why
Let us pass through this moment like a candle in the night
We don't need to wave me back, this is not a final song
Even though in a sadness to makes me fall

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

How much pain must we taste, how much sorrow must we know
Will be only nothing losing, how to cherish when we go
How agony is like the wind, we can hold it in our hands
In the light of a new day, we will understand

Take my smile holding in your heart forever
And I will be with you wherever you may go

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May the road rise to meet you on your way
May the sun always shine upon your face
And until the journey brings us back together
May god hold you in (the center of) his hand

May god hold you in the center of his hand

The long awaited rains
Have fallen hard upon the thirsty ground
Have carved their way to where
The wild and rushing river can be found
And like the rains
I have been carried here to where the river flows, yeah
My heart is racing and my knees are weak
As I walk to the edge
I know there is no turning back
Once my feet have left the ledge
And in the rush I hear a voice
That's telling me it's time to take a leap of faith
So here I go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

There is a supernatural power
In this mighty river’s flow
It can bring the dead to life
And it can fill an empty soul
And give a heart the only thing
Worth living and worth dying for
But we will never know the awesome power
Of the grace of God
Until we let ourselves get swept away
Into this holy flood
So if you'll take my hand
We'll close our eyes and count to three
And take the leap of faith
Come on let's go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

I know you've heard the stories
but they all sound too good to be true
you've heard about a place called home
but there doesn't seem to be one for you

so one more night
you cry yourself to sleep
and drift off to a distant dream

where love takes you in
and everything changes
a miracle starts
with the beat of a heart

when love takes you home
and says you belong here
the loneliness ends
and a new life begins
when love takes you in

and somewhere while you're sleeping

counting down the days until
they hold you cloes and say i love you

and like the rain that falls into the sea
in a moment what has been

there is nothing that could ever

We've got CD sets and videos, radio and TV shows
Conferences, retreats and seminars
We've got books and magazines to read on everything from A to Z
And a web to surf from anywhere we are
But I hope with all this information buzzing through our brains
That we will not let our hearts forget the most important thing

Is love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love
It's all about love

Now they're fighting in the middle east
And they're fighting down on Seventh Street
And there are fights in my own house on given days
It's like something's lurking deep inside
That Can't seem to be satisfied
But life was not meant to be lived this way
'Cause it's true for every man and woman
Every boy and girl
That our only hope for living here together in this world

Is love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love, love, love
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love

This is the reason we were made
To know the love of our Creator
And to give the love He's given us away
Yeah, the Maker, and the Father, and the God of everything
He says to love, love, love
He says love, love, love
Love, love, love
'Cause after all, it's all about love

Gods says love, love, love, love, love, yea yea
It's all about love, love, love, love, love (love love love)
Everything else comes down to this
Nothing any higher on the list than love
'Cause after all, it's all about love

That's right, yeah (laugh)
Woo!
It's all about, yea yea
It's all about
All about love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love, love, love
Yea it's all about love love love
It's all about love love love (yea love)

After all don't you know?
That it really all comes down to love
After all don't you know that
Gonna tell you what it's all about, yeah
Yeah, it's all about love
Yeah, it's all about love, yeah
It's all about love,
Love, love, love

So here we are we're standing face to face
And yet we seem to be a million miles apart
This world can feel like such a lonely place
It all depends on what you see from where you are
So please, please tell me what you can
'Cause I want to understand

How does it look from your side
How does it look from where you are
How does it look from your side
From your side of the world

So tell me the color of your sky above
Paint me a picture of the things that make you smile
Show me your fears and what you've dreaming of
Take me to where my heart can see across the miles
And please, please tell me what you can
'Cause I want to understand

How does it look from your side
How does it look from where you are
How does it look from your side
From your side of the world

Don't be surprised to find that I'm not too far away
'Cause what we are both in search of is one and the same
So please, please tell me what you see
'Cause I really want to be the one who understands

Well you know it's not the first time
And it will not be the last
When You find me here on my knees
Praying for the storm to pass

But what I am really needing
Is much more than just relief
I am crying out for wisdom
Only You can give to me
Cause it's such a mystery
I'm a clueless man
When it comes
To knowing how to love a woman

How do I love her?
How do I let her know she
Means more than anything to me?
How do I love her?

Out of all the gifts You've given
Besides the very gift of life
There is none as precious to me
As the treasure of my wife

And still all the love in my heart
Is like a raindrop to the sea
When compared to Your love for her
And that's why I ask You please
Will You teach me what she needs
I'm a earnest man
When it comes
To learning how to love this woman
How do I love her?
How do I let her know she
Means more than anything to me?
How do I love her?

Well I know it's gonna to take a lifetime
To answer this prayer I pray
But that's okay
Cause I've given You and her my lifetime anyway

How do I love her?
How do I let her know she
Means more than anything to me?
How do I love her?

Won't you tell me, tell me please...

11-6-64 The sun shone a whole lot brighter
Than ever it had before- smiling down on me
At 1:09 PM both hands of time stopped turning
And you came waltzing in to change my world for good

And I was only 2 years old
So really, I don't know
Exactly what was going on
But I, I bet I laughed and played
Harder on that day
'Cause my whole world was changin' on

11-6-64 You breathed your first breath
And suddenly living life meant so much more
On the day that you were born

And I, well I was only 2
So I didn't have a clue
Of all that was transpiring
But I, I bet the sky was blue
And all the world looked new
'Cause everything was changing on

11-6-64
You breathed your first breath
And suddenly living life meant so much more
On the day that you were born

11-6-64
Suddenly living life meant so much more
On the day that you were born.

One day you've got me laughing
One day you've got me crying
One day you've got me thinking
I'm going out of my mind
But one thing is true
The one thing that never changes
Is that you've always got me...

~Chorus~
On a Monday, on a Tuesday, on a Wednesday
All the way around 'til Sunday
You've always got me on the good days
And the bad days and the mad days
The happy and the sad days
You've got me every day of my life

One night you've got candles burning
One night your head is aching
Most nights you've got several hundred things
Still on your list to get done
But one thing stays true
One thing you can know for certain
Is that you've always got me...

~Chorus~

You've always got me
You've always got me by your side
You've always got me
Every single day of my life
You've always got me
You've always got me by your side
You've always got me

~Chorus~

One thing stays true
There's one thing you can know for certain
Is that you've always got me...

What is it about a kiss that makes me feel like this...oh oh
What is it that makes my heart beat fast when I'm in your arms...oh oh
What is it about your touch that amazes me so much
How is it that your sweet smile can get me through the hardest mile...oh oh
What's the magic in your eyes that brings the love in me alive...oh oh
What is it about this dance the sweetness of our romance
That makes me feel this way

~Chorus~
These are the echoes of Eden
Reflections of what we were created for
Hints of the passion and freedom
That waits on the other side of Heaven's door
These are the echoes of Eden

How is it the sky turns gray anytime you're far away...oh oh
What is it that makes me sad anytime you're feeling bad...oh oh
What is it about this night the music and the candlelight
That makes me feel this way

~Chorus~

What is it about this night the music and the candlelight
That makes me feel this way...

I know that look on your face
I know the secrets you tell
You're every mood I can trace
I guess I could say I know you well
But how can I say I know you well

Cause when I look in your eyes
I see a million miles across an endless sea
I wanna sail the waves and make the great discovery
And when I hold you in my arms
The beating of your heart is calling out to me
I'm holding a mystery

How many songs will be sung?
How many words will be said?
How many stories of love
Lie deep within you
Waiting to be read
And I want your story to be read

Cause when I look in your eyes
I see a million miles across an endless sea
I wanna sail the waves and make the great discovery
And when I hold you in my arms
The beating of your heart is calling out to me
I'm holding a mystery

The beating of your heart
Is calling out to me
Only a God of endless wisdom, love and mercy
Could have created such a wonder as you

I hear the beating of your heart calling out to me
I'm holding a mystery

I've watched the sun rise in your eyes
And I've seen the tears fall like the rain
You've seen me fight so brave and strong
You've held my hand when I'm afraid
We've watched the seasons come and go
We'll see them come and go again
But in winter's chill or summer's breeze
One thing will not be changing

Chorus:
We will dance
When the sun is shining, in the pouring rain.
We'll spin and we'll sway
And we will dance.
When the gentle breeze becomes a hurricane,
The music will play
And I'll take your hand and hold you close to me
And we will dance.

Sometimes it's hard to hold you tight
Sometimes we feel so far apart
Sometimes we dance as one
And feel the beating of each other's heart
Some days the dance is slow and sweet
Some days we're bouncing off the walls
But no matter how this world may turn
Our love will keep us from falling and ...

(Chorus)

The music will play
And I'll hold you close and I won't let go
Even when our steps grow weak and slow
Still I'll take your hand and hold you close to me
And we will dance...

Well I know there have been many who have hurt you
And I know your heart's been broken many times
How I wish that I could say I've never let you down
But I know I'm one of those who've made you cry

So in the whole wide world there's
No one else who will ever
Want to love you any better

I will be the only one
To love you for everything you are
I will be the only one
To really know you in all your glory
I will be the one to see
Everything you wanna be
I will be the only one
To bring out the miracle in you

Like a masterpiece that's waiting to be discovered
Like a treasure that is waiting to be found
There is so much unseen beauty in the heart of yours
And I want to be the one to bring it out

Cause in the whole wide world there's
No one else who will ever
Want to love you any better

I will be the only one
To love you for everything you are
I will be the only one
To really know you in all your glory
I will be the one to see
Everything you gonna be
I will be the only one
To bring out the miracle in you

I'm gonna be the one beside you
When the world is left behind you
You know I'm gonna be the only one

Cause in the whole wide world there's
No one else who will ever
Want to love you any better
No one else who will ever
Want to love you any better

I will be the only one
To love you for everything you are
I will be the only one
To really know you in all your glory
I will be the one to see
Everything you gonna be
I will be the only one
To bring out the miracle in you

I'll take care of you
Don't be sad, don't be blue
I'll never break your heart in two
I'll take care of you
I'll kiss your tears away
I'll end your lonely days
All that I'm really tryin' to say
Is I'll take care of you

I want you to know that I love you so
I'm proud to tell the world you're mine
I said it before, I'll say it once more
You'll be in my heart 'til the end of time

I'll take care of you
Don't be sad, don't be blue
Just count on me your whole life through
'Cause I'll take care of you

Tomorrow morning if you wake up and the sun does not

6:30 Monday morning
I'm here hiding in my bed
A song plays on my alarm clock
As I cover up my head
But somewhere in the distance
I remember yesterday
Singing "Hallelujah"
Full of wonder, awe and grace
But now I'm just wondering
Why I don't feel anything
At all

This is a moment made for worshiping
Cause this is a moment I'm alive
And this is a moment I was made to sing
A song of living sacrifice
For every moment that I live and breathe
This is a moment made for worshiping

When I'm praying with my children
As they're running off to school
When I kiss my wife good morning
Just to say I still love you
When I'm feeling love and happy
When I'm feeling all alone
When I'm failing to remember
All the love that I've been shown
Every single beat of my heart
Is another new place to start
To know

This is a moment made for worshiping
Cause this is a moment I'm alive
And this is a moment I was made to sing
A song of living sacrifice
For every moment that I live and breathe
This is a moment made for worshiping

Every single beat of my heart
Is another new place to start
Right now

This is a moment made for worshiping
Cause this is a moment I'm alive
And this is a moment I was made to sing
A song of living sacrifice
For every moment that I live and breathe
This is a moment made for worshiping

From the rising of the sun
To the setting the sun
The name of the Lord is worthy to be praised

I know you've heard the stories
but they all sound too good to be true
you've heard about a place called home
but there doesn't seem to be one for you

so one more night
you cry yourself to sleep
and drift off to a distant dream

where love takes you in
and everything changes
a miracle starts
with the beat of a heart

when love takes you home
and says you belong here
the loneliness ends
and a new life begins
when love takes you in

and somewhere while you're sleeping
someone else is greaming too
counting down the days until
they hold you cloes and say i love you

and like the rain that falls into the sea
in a moment what has been
is lost in what will be

when love takes you in
everything changes
a miracle starts
with the beat of heart
and this love will never let you go

there is nothing that could ever
cause this love to lose its hold

when love takes you in
everthing changes
a miracle start
with the beat of a heart

when love takes you home
and says you belong here
the loneliness ends
and a new life begins

when love takes you in
it takes you in for good
when love takes you in -

The long awaited rains
Have fallen hard upon the thirsty ground
Have carved their way to where
The wild and rushing river can be found
And like the rains
I have been carried here to where the river flows, yeah
My heart is racing and my knees are weak
As I walk to the edge
I know there is no turning back
Once my feet have left the ledge
And in the rush I hear a voice
That's telling me it's time to take a leap of faith
So here I go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

There is a supernatural power
In this mighty river’s flow
It can bring the dead to life
And it can fill an empty soul
And give a heart the only thing
Worth living and worth dying for
But we will never know the awesome power
Of the grace of God
Until we let ourselves get swept away
Into this holy flood
So if you'll take my hand
We'll close our eyes and count to three
And take the leap of faith
Come on let's go!

I'm diving in
I'm going deep
In over my head I want to be
Caught in the rush
Lost in the flow
In over my head I want to go
The river’s deep
The river’s wide
The river’s water is alive
So sink or swim I'm diving in

You spoke and made the sunrise, to light up the very first day
You breathed across the water, and started the very first wave
It was You
You intoduced Your glory, to every living creature on earth
And they started singing, the first song to ever be heard
They sang for You

You make all things new
You make all things new

Then the world was broken, fallen and battered and scarred
You took the hopeless, the life, wasted, ruined and marred
And made it new

You make all things new
You make all things new
You redeem and You transform
You renew and You restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

You turn winter into spring
You take every living thing
And You breathe Your breath of life into it over and over again

You make the sunrise, day after day after day
But there′s a morning coming, when old things will all pass away
And everyone will see

You make all things new
You make all things new
Come redeem and come transform
Come renew and come restore
You make all things new
You make all things new
And forever we will watch and worship You

Now and forever You are making all things new
You′re making all things new

Hallelujah...

1.
How could I stand here
And watch the sun rise
Follow the mountains
Where they touch the sky

Ponder the vastness
And the depths of the sea
And think for a moment
The point of it all
was to make much of me

'Cause I'm just a whisper
And You are the thunder and..

*
I want to make much of You, Jesus
I want to make much of Your love
I want to live today to give You the praise
That You alone are so worthy of

I want to make much of Your mercy
I want to make much of Your cross
I give You my life
Take it and let it be used
To make much of You

2.
And how can I kneel here
And think of the cross
The thorns and the whip
and the nails and the spear
The infinite cost

To purchase my pardon
And bear all my shame
To think I have anything worth boasting in
Except for Your mame

'Cause I am a sinner
And You are the Savior and...

*
* *
This is Your love, oh, God
not to make much of me
But to send Your own Son
So that we could make much of You
For all eternity

* 반복

1.
I was just a little kid when
I heard about You for the first time
And all I really, really knew for sure
Is You were God, I wanted to know You
And now the years have come and gone
I'm still singing that same song
You might think by now I would have reached the end
but the truth is...

*
I am only just beginning
I am only getting
Started to know you now
I'm only getting started
And when I start thinking I'm getting
Close to the end,
You just smile at me and say
"Hey kid, you ain't seen nothing yet"
I'm only getting started now

2.
Now Your love, it is an ocean
Deeper than my deepest notion
Your grace, it is the sky above
It just keeps on going forever
And with every new sunrise
You come and open up my eyes
Show me just a little more of You
And again I see that....

* 반복

I pull over to the side of the road and I
watch the cars pass me by
The headlights and the black limousines tell me
Someone is saying goodbye
I bow my head and I whisper a prayer, "Father,
Comfort Their broken hearts"
And as I drive away there's a thought that I
I cannot escape, no I,
Cannot escape this thought
I can't get away

*
Oh, if this should be my last day on this earth
How then shall I live?
Oh, if this should be the last day that I have
Before I breathe the air of Heaven
Let me live it with abandon to
The only thing(one) that remiains
After my last day here on earth

* *
If this should be my last day here on earth
If this should be my last day here on earth
If this should be my last, last day here on earth
And if tomorrow comes to find me
Looking in the face of Jesus
Will I hear Him say the words "well done"?

*
* * *
If this should me my last day here on earth
If this should be my last, last day here on earth
'Cause this could be my last
This could be my last
This could be my last day

1. I saw the face of Jesus
In a little orphan girl
She was standing in the corner
On the other side of the world
And I heard the voice of Jesus
Gently whisper to my heart
Didn`t you say you wanted to find Me
Well, here I am
Here you are

* So what now
What will you do now you`ve found Me
What now
What will you do with this treasure you`ve found
I know I may not look like what you expected
But if you`ll remember
This is right where I said I would be
You found Me
What now

2. And I saw the face of Jesus
Down on Sixteenth Avenue
He was sleeping in an old car
While his mom went looking for food
And I heard the voice of Jesus
Gently whisper to my soul
Didn`t you say you wanted to know me
Well, here I am
And it`s getting cold

So come and know
Come and know, know me now
Come, come and know, know me now
Oh, come and know
Come, come and know, know me now
Come, come and know, know me now

A day is coming when all will be fed
There won't be a single hungry mouth begging for bread
A day is coming when every disease
Will be swept away as mercy floods through every street

A day is coming
A day is coming
A day is coming
But until that day comes

Let Your kingdom come in me
Let Your will be done in me
Here on earth as it is and as it will be in Heaven

Show Your glory to the world
Tell Your story to the world
Let my life be a preview of coming attractions
Yeah, coming Attractions

A day is coming that won't fade to night
There'll be no more hatred to endure, no wars to fight
There'll be no orphans, no prisoners or slaves
And all the tears of death and pain will be washed away

This day is coming
It's surely coming
Jesus, you're coming
But until that day comes

Let Your kingdom come in me
Let Your will be done in me
Here on earth as it is and as it will be in heaven

Show Your glory to the world
Tell Your story to the world
Let my life be a preview of coming attractions

Shine Your light through me
Live Your life through me
Let the world see Your kingdom come in me

Verse 1:
I hear the rumors of another world
Like distant voices in the wind
They say there is a story being told
Bigger than I can comprehend
And in the rumors I can hear an invitation calling

Chorus:
This is the, the big story
There is a God who's in control
Telling the, the big story

And He wants us to know
We will find ourselves when we loose ourselves
In the bigger story
Come and take your place in the story

Verse 2:
We all live in this place called the here and now
We see what's right before our eyes
But right here right now heaven's coming down

All around God's story is coming alive
And in this moment if we listen
We can hear Him calling

Chorus again

Captivating, fascinating, all consuming
Never concluding, One and only
Ever unfolding, Story of stories
The big, big story

I watch you looking out
Across the raging water
So sure your only hope
Lies on the other side
You hear the enemy
That’s closing in around you
And I know
That you don’t have the strength to fight
But do you
Have the faith to stand (and)

Believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now
Believe me now

I am the one who waved my hand
And split the ocean
I am the One
Who spoke the words and raised the dead
And I’ve loved you long before
I set the world in motion
I know all the fears you’re feeling now
But do you remember who I am?

Will you believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now

Believe it’s true
I have never I never will abandon you
And the God that I have always been
I will forever be
So believe me now

I am the God
Who never wastes a single hurt
That you endure
My words are true
And all My promises are sure
So believe me now
Oh believe me now

So believe me now
Believe me here
Remember all the times
I’ve told you loud and clear
I am with you and I am for you
So believe me now
Believe it’s true
I never have, I never will abandon you
And the God that I have always been
I will forever be
So believe me now
Believe me now
Believe me now

Was God smiling
When he spoke the words
That made the world
And did he cry about the flood
What does God’s voice sound like
When he sings, when he’s angry
These are just a few things
That the angels have on me

Well I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things the angels long
To look into
And I know things
Angels only wish they knew

I have seen the dark and desperate place
Where sin will take you
I’ve felt loneliness and shame
And I have watched
the blinding light of grace
Come breaking through with a sweetness
Only tasted by the forgiven and redeemed

Still I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things
the angels long to look into
And I know things
The angels only wish they knew

And someday I’ll sit down
with my angel friends
Up in heaven
They’ll tell me about creation
And I’ll tell them a story about grace

Well I can’t fly
At least not yet
I’ve got no halo on my head
And I can’t even start
to picture heaven’s beauty
But I’ve been shown the Savior’s love
The grace of God has raised me up
To show me things the angels long
To look into
And I know things
Angels only wish they knew

Verse 1:
Aren't you the little one
That hid in my arms afraid of the thunder
Are these the little hands
That held so tight to mine

Didn't we both agree you'd never grow up
And now here we are, and here you go
Of all the things I want to say
The thing you really need to know is...

Chorus A:
I believe in you
I believe in you
Everything you are
Everything you are becoming

And I believe in you
I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I always believe in you

Verse 2:
So many prayers we've prayed
so many dreams to get to this moment
Now this is where we stay
While you go change the world

But I'll be where I have always been
Up in the stands cheering you on and singing this song
A song the very God who made you
Has been singing all along

Chorus B:
I believe in you
Yeah, I believe in you
So spread your wings and fly
On the winds of knowing
I will always believe in you

Bridge:
And when you rise and when you fall
I'll still believe in you
Just close your eyes and hear me calling
I believe in You
Oh, I believe in you

What can I do
How can I live
To show my world
The treasure of Jesus

What will it take
What could I give
So they can know
The treasure He is

Chorus:
And if I can sing
Let my songs be full of His glory
If I can speak
Let my words be full of His grace

And if I should live or die
Let me be found pursuing this prize
The One that alone satisfies
The treasure of Jesus
