Above The Golden State

I lift my eyes to behold Your beauty
And I can feel Your heavenly pull
You meet my eyes, with Your love enfold me
To rest upon, the gaze of my soul

In front of me is the figure I long for
And I will turn to see no one else
But I?m consumed by Your grace and wonder
I?m finding You as I lose myself
I?m finding You as I lose

I, I wanna gaze into Your eyes
I wanna lose my soul in You, You
When I stare into Your eyes
I can see You looking back at me

The definition of my faith is a wonder
I?d rather look to You than know
Lord, I believe and I feel You moving
When I love with the love You?ve shown

The distractions of this world have trapped me
But I?m returning to the rest I?ve known
As a bird flies away and wanders
Returning to my heavenly home
Returning to my heavenly

I, I wanna gaze into Your eyes
I wanna lose my soul in You, You
When I stare into Your eyes
I can see You looking back at me
I can see You looking back at me

I can see You looking back
I, my eyes are on You
I can see You looking
I can see You looking back

I, I wanna gaze into Your eyes
I wanna lose my soul in You, You
When I stare into Your eyes
I can see You looking back
When I stare into Your eyes
I can see You looking back at me

I tried and tried a thousand times I tried to get to You
But I could never move
I had to lie, I?d fall behind and blame it all on You
?Cause I still hate to lose
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Towers fall and kingdoms crumble
The mountains bow and the earth will tremble
At the sound of Your name
At the sound of Your name

The strong man falls to Him who humbles
The plans he made were bound to stumble
And only You remain
Only You remain, oh, oh, oh

I cried and cried a thousands tears I cried because of You
I lost my one excuse
And I had to die along with everything inside of me removed
But now I live with You, You
Oh, oh, oh

Towers fall and kingdoms crumble
The mountains bow and the earth will tremble
At the sound of Your name
At the sound of Your name

The strong man falls to Him who humbles
The plans he made were bound to stumble
And only You remain
Only You remain

So man can reach the sky
If he builds his own device
But still he?s far away from You

He?s underneath Your eyes
As he plans his own demise
What?s new to him is old to You
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

His kingdom fell and his heart was troubled, yeah
I feel the same, I feel the same

The strong man falls to Him who humbles
He demands a man who won?t stumble
And that?s why He came
Yeah, that?s why He came

Towers fall and kingdoms crumble
The mountains bow and the earth will tremble
At the sound of Your name
At the sound of Your name

The strong man falls to Him who humbles
The plans he made were bound to stumble
Only You remain
Only You remain

Only You remain
Only You remain, oh, oh

When shadows turn to faces
When faces take on names
When names tell us their stories
Of their brokenness and pain

When love flows through the cities
Through the grid of all the streets
Under bridges in the alleys
Like blood through our veins

Love is real
Love will bleed
Love will heal, love
Love will need

When love is used like money
It turns into our greed
When love is more like water
Then everyone will drink

So, let it flow through all our cities
(Like the rivers fall)
And flood them like the sea
(Love fill us all)
Fill the souls that hunger
Lord, give us what we need, yeah

Love is real
Love will bleed
Love will heal, love
Love will need

Love is real
Love will bleed
Love will heal, yeah
Love will need

Love, change the world, yeah
Love, change the world

You can see it when He walks around
You can feel it when He moves the ground
We?re all colored with a crimson stain
Can you see it now? Can you see Him now?

From the clouds to the world below
From the mountain to the city of gold
Love is coming like an urgent rain
Can you feel it now? Can you feel Him now?

From the clouds to the world below
From the mountain to the city of gold
Love is coming like an urgent rain
Can you feel it now? Can you feel Him now?

I feel the sun, it?s returned again
To chase the cold far away
I?m not alone to fight the world I?m in
You gave me hope for better days

I was searching for a friend like no other
I never thought You?d come my way

Everything I give to You
I?ll love You so
Everything I say or do
I?ll love You so

Look where we?ve come, how could I ever forget
Before Your love my heart was dead?
I was afraid that my sun would set
But You stayed around to lift my head

I was living my whole life undercover
I never dreamed I?d see Your face

Everything I give to You
I?ll love You so
And everything I say or do
I?ll love You so

Ooh, I?ll love You so
Ooh, I?ll love You so

Everything I give to You
I?ll let it go
Everything I say or do
I?ll love You so

Ooh, I?ll love You so
Ooh, I?ll love You so

(Ooh, I feel the sun)
I?ll love You so
I feel the sun

Down, down, like an aeroplane
Storm hit with a world of hate
I was holding on
But still falling to the ground

Turn, turn in the hurricane
Wind hit with the heavy rain
You were calling out
But I never heard a sound

And so I?ll go back where we started
(Down, down)
I forgot that the heavens are shinning for You
Light up my heart like the new day
I never mind if the darkness has to stay, yeah
I?ll comeback with a little faith

Burn, burn this consumer's flame
Never thought it could suffocate
Because I can?t keep up
And the fire?s burning out

The world will never be enough with its know how
What can I get now, I?m sick of all your lies
They?re such a let down, it got my head in the clouds
Was lost, then I found Your grace

I?ll just go back where we started
(Down, down)
I forgot that the heavens are shinning for You
Light up my heart like the new day
I never mind if the darkness has to stay, yeah
I?ll comeback with a little faith

I wanna get back, I know when I?m not right
I?ll never look back , back on the old life
?Cause I wanna make a comeback
If it takes me life time
Will You show me where You?re at?
And I?ll find the way in Your light

The rain is over, the clouds are parting now

So, I?ll go back where we started
And I forgot that the heavens are shinning for You

I?ll go back where we started
(Down, down)
I forgot that the heavens are shinning for You
Light up my heart like the new day
I never mind if the darkness has to stay, yeah

So, I?ll go back where we started
(Down, down)
I forgot all the heavens are shinning for You
Light up my heart like the new day
I never mind if the darkness has to stay, yeah
I?ll comeback with a little faith

I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me

I pray for love more and more
That I might have love like Yours
A love that shines upon the earth
A love that fills the ocean floors

I pray for peace like rivers flow
I pray for joy like fountains glow
A faith that moves the mountains to seas
But most of all

I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me, yeah

I pray for love more and more
That I might have love like Yours
A love that goes from east to west
A love that has no height or depth

I pray for peace like rivers flow
I pray for joy like fountains glow
A faith that moves the mountains to seas
But most of all

I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me, yeah

I pray for peace like rivers flow
I pray for joy like fountains glow
I pray for truth and grace over me
I pray for strength, this hope I believe
A faith that moves the mountains to seas, yeah, yeah
But most of all

I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me
I pray for love like Yours for me

I am scared, I'm afraid
Mercy me with Your grace
My heart said in brokenness
I want to see Your face

Don't You hide, don't You leave
Don't You turn away from me
?Cause if You go I'll be forsaken
Who will be my soul?s salvation?

Lord, hear my cry, hear my heart
Here I come to where You are
I'll be there for You, You'll be there for me

Lord, though I'm weak, You are strong
So I'll go back where I belong
You'll be there for me, I'll be there for You
You'll be there for me

Answer me in my place
You told me to seek Your face
My heart spoke with heaviness
Your face I will seek

Don't give up, don't forget
Remember me and I won't quit
What good am I if I'm not taken?
And who am I without salvation?

Lord, hear my cry, hear my heart
Here I come to where You are
I'll be there for You, You'll be there for me

Lord, though I'm weak, You are strong
So I'll go back where I belong
You'll be there for me and I'll be there for You
You'll be there for me

Lord, hear my cry, hear my heart
Here I come to where You are
You'll be there for me, I'll be there for You
You'll be there for me

Stone's throw away
I can see His agony start to bleed
Stone's throw away
I can hear His adamant plea, ?Let it pass from me?, yeah

Save Lord, I pray
Save me from my enemy who prowls in deep
And I?ll fight to stay awake
My spirit wills, my flesh is weak, so I fall asleep

The dark is creeping in
How suddenly my vanity betrays my speech
?This man is not my friend?, what a foolish lie
?Cause You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night in a dream

Stone's throw away
I can hear my Savior?s plea, ?Come to me?
Oh, I?ve tried to run away
Why does He keep on asking me for my loyalty?

My world is closing in
How suddenly my frailty finds words to speak
I?ll love You to the end, until I die
?Cause You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night in a dream

Oh, I need You now , I?m lost without You here
Forgive me, all the times I?ve turned away
Ooh, my love is only Yours, I?ve told You twice before
You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night in a dream

The world is closing in
Jesus, You?re my everything, my life to breathe
I?ll follow you until I reach the end ?til Your kingdom comes
?Cause You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night in a dream

Oh, I need You now , I?m lost without You here
Forgive me, all the times I?ve turned away, away
Ooh, my love is only Yours, I?ve told You twice before
You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night
Oh, You I can?t deny
Your mercy haunts me every night in a dream

(Follow)
And I?ll follow You ?til the end
(Follow You till the end)
I?ll follow You ?til the end
(Follow You till the end)
I?ll follow You ?til the end

I?ll follow You until I reach the end
(I?ll follow You ?til the end)

I don?t want to live
For anything but You, Jesus
And all I have to give
I give it all to You, Jesus

And every breath I breathe
I?ll breathe for You, Jesus
And every word I?ll speak
I?ll speak for You, Jesus

With all my heart and all my soul
I love You, Lord more and more
With all my mind and all my strength
Take my life, take my life

I don?t want to live
For anything but You, Jesus
All I have to give
I give it all to You, Jesus

With all my heart and all my soul
I love You Lord more and more
With all my mind and all my strength
Take my life, take my life

With all my heart, yeah, yeah, yeah
With all my heart, yeah, yeah, yeah

With all my heart and all my soul
I love You, Lord more and more
With all my mind and all my strength
Take my life, take my life

With all my heart and all my soul
All my mind, all my strength
Take my life, take it all

My life has scripted lines like a movie
And you?re listening now
My director?s watchful eye is recording
Every move and sound

The camera's on, three, two, one, everyday
Because it won?t be long ?til it?s done
And tomorrow will bring the awesome rising sun
Like a preview of what?s to come

I?m showing you my heart
From real to reel

Run the tape through my mind
Fit to screen, cut to size
I?m playing you my ?Best of? how I feel
From real to reel

I?ll roll through Hollywood with a chariot
And gold rimmed shades
I can?t imagine the look on Oscar's face
When he sees my star on the walk of fame

Oh, I believe when I leave
I?ll play a part in this eternity?s documentary
Tomorrow will bring the awesome rising sun
Like a preview of what?s to come

Watch me go on the slide
Scene by scene of my whole life
I?m showing you my heart
From real to reel

Run the tape through my mind
Fit to screen, cut to size
I?m playing you my ?Best of? how I feel

Watch me go on that slide
Behind the scenes of my true life
I?m showing you my heart
From real to reel

Run the tape through my mind
Fit to screen, cut to size

From real to reel

My life has scripted lines
Like a movie and you?re listening now
