Self-Worth
I feel so empty without you. I’ve tried to fill this whole without you.
I hear your voice you’re calling me, but I hide naked and ashamed.
I hide naked and ashamed.
Still you call out my name. Are you not ashamed of who I am?
Why did you hang upon that tree? My life is not worth your life.
Oh my child, I love you! You’re worth more to me than anything.
My love for you held me on that cross. So I could see you in eternity.
So I could see you in eternity!
Still I call out your name. I’m not ashamed of who you are.
For I know all you will be, when you hide your life in me.
Still I call out your name. I’m not ashamed of who you are.
For I know all you will be, when you hide your life in me. Hide your life in me.
Reaching
Confused and lost can’t find my place. Why does it seem I’m your disgrace?
I’m reaching out, I’m longing for…wanting more of you.
I need to hear you say, you love me.
I need to know you’re proud, proud of me.
Just want to be your child. So won’t you love me?
These thoughts run wild can’t seem to please.
This mask I wear it seems to ease the pain.
If you saw me for who I am, oh would you leave me?
I need to hear you say, you love me.
I need to know you’re proud, proud of me.
Just want to be your child. So won’t you…
I see your tears. I hear your sorrows. I’m reaching out can you hear me say X2
I need to hear you say, you love me (I love you).
I need to know you’re proud, proud of me (I’m proud of you).
Just want to be your child (I made you). So won’t you love me? (I love you).
Held Fast
How much longer till the victory is won,
till the road less traveled sees your face?
How much longer to fight life’s trials…emotions run wild, temptations inside,
the battle of lies?
Still you’re faithful to forgive…Your love so deep.
I will run to you and in your arms I’ll fall. I’ll cling to your truth may your glory
shine through when I’m weak. I will follow you, though the road may be hard.
I’m not at the end of my rope but I’m wrapped up in your cloak.
How long to see your beauty? To walk by your side with nothing to hide,
To praise you in your sanctuary and hear you say welcome home.
Then I will run to you and in your arms I’ll fall. I’ll cling to your truth may your
glory shine through when I’m weak. I will follow you, though the road may be
hard. I’m not at the end of my rope but I’m wrapped up in your cloak.
Purify my heart. Refine this life, though pain may come…
I’ll still run to you, and in your arms I’ll fall.
I’ll cling to your truth may your glory shine through when I’m weak.
I will follow you, though the road may be hard.
Then I will run to you, and in your arms I’ll fall.
I’ll cling to your truth may your glory shine through when I’m weak.
I will follow you, though the road may be hard.
I’m not at the end of my rope; I’m not at the end of my rope I’m wrapped up in your cloak
Cry for Zimbabwe
I see the fear in the children’s eyes. I watch them as they realize that this world
they knew as a home and friend is now a place where the pain won’t end so…
Why? Why? Oh Lord why?
I feel the pain in my chest again.
My hearts being burned like the sand on the shore.
The tears roll down my aching face, will I ever see my home?
So why all this pain? This suffering seems here to stay?
Why all this pain, this suffering is it here to stay?
God redeemer, can you hear me? Come restore this home.
Helper Healer, is there freedom, for a land so torn? X2
Why? Why? Oh Lord why?
Slipping through
Words slip through pages. Colors fade to gray.
There’s no song in my heart Lord, no words in my mouth.
How did David do it, singing praise in the midst of pain?
Can I raise my voice, even through the rain?
I will lift my voice though no words may come.
I will sing your praise, even through the rain.
Mist covers the way. Fog clouds my mind.
Can I hear your truth Lord, even when I doubt?
How did Jesus do it, speaking truth in the midst of pain?
Can I proclaim your name, even in the rain?
I will lift my voice though no words may come.
I will speak your truth even in the rain.
Time slips through my fingers, like sand in the hourglass.
No matter what storm I may face, I will praise your name!
I will lift my voice. I will sing your praise.
I will speak your truth even through the rain.
Home in your arms
Minutes to hours and hours to days, still can’t believe it was only yesterday.
When you said you love me and I said I do.
Where does the time go I’m caught up with you on this cloud in an ocean of blue.
When you kissed my lips my world melted.
When you touched my hand butterflies flew.
When you whispered you love me and you always will.
In these moments I know, I’m home in your arms.
Minutes to hours and hours to days,
the cloud has turned rainy and covered sunny days.
Still you hold me together we lay caught up in the silver lining after the rain.
When you kissed my lips my world melted.
When you touched my hand butterflies flew.
When you whispered you love me and you always will.
In these moments I know, I’m home in your arms.
No matter where we are or how time may shape us.
You will always be, home to me.
When you kiss my lips my world melts.
When you touch my hand butterflies fly.
When you whisper you love me and you always will.
In these moments I know…
When you kissed my lips my world melted. When you touched my hand butterflies flew.
When you whispered you love me and you always will.
In these moments I know, I’m home in your arms,
I’m home in your arms.
As we dance
When you walked through that door I knew you were the one,
and I would never be the same again.
When we touch, I get such a rush, knowing you’re the one whose arms I’m in.
I want to tell you, how much you mean to me.
All these words collide in this hourglass of time, oh baby take my hand...
We’ll dance through our dreams and dance through our sorrow,
Remembering there’s always tomorrow. Embracing today it’s our gift from above.
Oh baby hold my hand as we dance.
So take my hand in yours. Take my heart I’m yours
Here’s my love I freely give to you. So hold me in your arms, hold me in your arms.
And we’ll dance through our dreams and dance through our sorrow,
remembering there’s always tomorrow. Embracing today it’s our gift from above.
Baby hold my hand…we’ll dance through our dreams and dance through our
sorrow, remembering there’s always tomorrow.
Embracing today it’s our gift from above.
Oh baby hold my hand, baby hold me tight, as we dance through life
Gift from God
Looking at Heaven tonight, watching the stars go by,
I never dreamed of love so perfect and complete,
I never thought one could love me just for being me.
Dancing in moonlight and singing God’s grace,
looking in your eyes feeling your warm embrace,
there are no words to describe the way I know inside you’re my gift from above…
I know you’re my gift from above.
I know through the joys and the pain
I will always be with you.
I love the way you kiss my tears, whenever I share my deepest fears.
The way you stay when it’s easier to leave, the way you love me so endlessly.
The joy you brought in my darkest hour, tears we’ve cried as we stand side by side.
And I thank God, for that night, when you asked me to be your wife…
I know you’re my gift from above.
I know through the joys and the pain I will always be with you.
And I know you’re my gift from above.
I know through the joys and the pain I will always be with you.
FLY
Sometimes life is harder than they’ll tell you,
And you find yourself crying alone in the night
Sometimes you feel overwhelmed and weary, your head full of lies
come on, swallow your Pride and…
FLY! Spread your wings
FLY! Spread your wings, it’s time to fly.
Don’t listen any longer to their lies, for they’ll only cage you in this life.
There’s one who can set you free so hold his hand then spread your wings
FLY! Spread your wings
FLY! Spread your wings, it’s time to fly.
Don’t fear falling, Christ will mend your wings. His arms will hold you and set you free.
So FLY! Spread your wings
FLY! Spread your wings, it’s time to fly.
Freedom
Here I am Lord, take my hand and mold me to your will.
I want to be in your arms be more free than I am.
Only by your loving grace will I see the son again.
Cuz you are freedom to this soul of chains, and you are mercy from a life of pain, only you can satisfy my heart.
I am dying my throat is burning I’m thirsty for your love.
I am weak Lord crying meekly I’m hungry for your word.
I lose focus of your spirit so come and fill me again.
Cuz you are freedom to this soul of chains, and you are mercy from a life of
pain, only you can satisfy my heart.
Here I am Lord, please take my hand and mold me to your will.
Running in circles (prelude to rest)
Life…is always the same.
Life…is filled with pain.
Life…is an endless charades.
Life…is covered with chains.
Why…am I holding my chains?
Why…am I clinging to my pain?
Why…am I playing this game?
Why…can’t I see a brighter day?
Can you hear me I’m calling your name? Lost in this desert; a desert of pain.
I want freedom from life’s chains. Can you hear me I’m calling your name.
N------A------M-----E
Lord I need your love.
Lord please come and fill the dark.
Lord be my water of life.
Lord break through these chains of night.

Rest, lay your head down. The battle has been won you no longer are bound.
So won’t you sit, sit with me. I will give you rest if you will find rest in me.
I was with you in the desert. I’ll be there when you rise on the mountain.
My child one thing is certain, I will and have and always loved you.
I will and have and always loved you.
So rest, rest in my love. I know you are not perfect but I am enough
so won’t you rest. I know you’re weary. Lay your burden on my shoulders,
lay your chains at my feet and find rest in me.
