• Home

    Bridge:
    I am longing for you to call me home (10)
    This earth serves as a resting place (10)
    Longing yearning to see you face to face (10)
    Heaven is my home for eternity (10)

    Chorus:
    I want my life to reflect eternal life (11)
    Knowing a better place is waiting for me (11)
    A place that sin no longer entangles me (11)
    In heaven I will be able to live free (11)
    Home for breakfast, lunch and dinner I pray (11)
    You will lead me to a life of completion (11)

    Verse 1:
    As I stop and listen I hear you calling (10)
    As I listen and grow closer to you (10)
    I am forever growing close to home (10)
    Each step of faith I take I grow closer (10)
    Each time I spend reading your words to me (10)
    I slowly understand where my home is (10)
    The steps I take today help me see you (10)

    Verse 2: You are calling me home when I run away (11)
    When I stray from you, You gently call my name (11)
    You give me another chance you wash me clean (11)
    May I remember I am on fire for you (11)
    Tune me in teach me to listen to your call (11)
    Home is where I want to be your arms of love (11)
    Hidden in Your infinite love so deep (11)

     
  • Outward

    Bridge:
    My faith is more than just an act (8)
    The way I live is more concrete (8)
    I want my life to be inward (8)
    The outward way I may be cool (8)

    Chorus:
    My faith is more than an outward sign (10)
    I want others to know Jesus is mine (10)
    My life is not all about writing songs (10)
    Outward appearance doesn’t really matter (10)
    Of course this world could be a safer place (10)

    Verse 1:
    On the outside things may look alright (9)
    This is so typical in the world now (9)
    Daily outward appearances deceive (9)
    So outward we may look out and see (9)
    This outward persona has gotta go (9)
    People can only see outwardly (9)

    Verse 2:
    Faith is more than an outward decision (10)
    The outward doesn’t matter in Heaven (10)
    Faith is much too strong so you can not see (10)
    You never know when you will use your faith (10)
    There are so many things to consider (10)
    So many options things that we can’t see (10)
    You don’t need anymore than a mustard seed (10)
    But that faith is a hard thing to grab hold (10)
    No asking questions just take a huge leap (10)

     
  • Before

    Bridge: Before You can use me I need to repent (10)
    Before I was saved I had no life purpose (10)
    I want to kneel before your throne (10)
    Before I leave this world I need to show love (10)
    Before I was born you already knew me (10)
    Before you made me You have chosen me (10)

    Chorus: Before there was this thing called time (9)
    I want my life to count for more (9)
    You were before all time created (9)
    I love you Lord with all my heart (9)
    You loved me before I was on Earth (9)

    Verse 1: I need you now more than ever before (10)
    Every breath I take I want to know you (10)
    I love you I want to live now, alive (10)
    Before a word is on my lips you know (10)
    May the love that you give me overflow (10)

    Verse 2: Please help me see you more than before (10)
    Living for Jesus is not always easy (10)
    To see you working is a lot of fun (10)
    I give my life to you in all I do (10)

    Verse 3: Help me tell others how much you love them (10)
    Please show me how to communicate with you (10)
    Others need the answers only you give (10)
    After your heart I choose to daily live (10)

     
  • Set free

    Forgiveness you offer to me when I feel dirty you have died for me, you blood has covered me.

    Chorus: In this life, we can live in bondage, or we can be eternally set free, and then I can really live the way you have meant for me. I need to see, need to remember you have paid the price for all my sin you forgive me again and again when I want to go into the same old sin again help me realize your forgiveness has set me free from anything I could ever do.

    Verse 1: I want to experience a life that’s not tethered by the ropes of this world, the ropes of this world by the ties that keeps is from coming to see you. So many people are weighted down because of their own sin, can’t seem to shake the notion that the solution is Jesus, and they can’t believe it is free and more potent than any true love potion.

    Verse 2: When we are living free knowing who you created us to be, we will rise up like the eagles and will soar higher than the trees. knowing that you hold nothing against us when we come clean we will be untethered for you say “You will be free indeed” when you confess your sins above, never to be seen by the world again your blood has set me free has allowed me to run with freedom, so that one day I may see your kingdom come.

     
  • When I have nowhere to go

    So many places people turn to, so many
    times they ask what will this do? There
    are so many things in this world that have
    got people singin’, but if you slow down
    just to catch the cell phone ringin’
    When I’ve ran out of options
    get sick and tired of reading newspaper captions.
    Help me understand I am the salt shaker.
    When I live for you make you the center of all I do
    I know you will hold me tight
    so please dear Lord teach me not to fight.
    When the world is shakin’ I’d best not
    be fakin’, it says in your word I will not
    be forsaken, for I know when the
    rapture comes comes that I will be taken
    You gave your son to die for me
    upon the cross for all to see, when
    I ask myself the question why do
    my devotions, help me not listen
    to my feelings and emotions and help me to always remember
    you are the one who put this Earth into motion
    You created the oceans, you
    parted the red sea. all the while you were
    thinkin’ of me. When I can not see
    you grab me by the hand amidst the raging
    sea. When the waves of life crush the
    boat I am in I know you came to save
    me from all my sins.
    When my life is the pits you
    will help me see where the pieces fit. When you
    come back, Ya’ don’t know Jack, with
    accepting You there is no turning back so
    pick the Bible off your rack and
    find out how you too can be
    saved from death and destruction
    how to survive the demolition of people
    who don’t listen to the one true
    source of life
    When the Bible says Jesus
    bought you with a price it doesn’t really
    matter if you have head lice. When
    the price was paid, there was no Kate Spade
    the decision was made God told
    Jesus the price must be paid, He died
    and rose again he moved the stone from
    the grave He was laid, this set up the foundation
    for us to tell the nation about that Jesus
    who saves
    The word states it so plainly
    there is one way to heaven, it also tells
    us to forgive 70X7. That it is not 490
    cuz if it is you’re missing the
    point, Jesus is tellin’ us to forgive
    unconditionally, so don’t get stuck
    in the trap when He told us that
    He didn’t mean literally. The
    pharisees tried to trap Him
    but they were shut down every
    time they tried Jesus told them
    just how wrong they were and there
    on the spot Jesus would tell them more
    I may not know how to rap
    So I just put on a cap
    Busy singin’ to my Lord All I want
    is to be proclaiming His word. Every song
    has its message good or bad does it really
    matter what the lyrics say? It matters
    because the message is there in your
    head, song or spoken words are often
    read. He died for your sins so His blood was shed
    The message of the cross is a great
    one that needs to be proclaimed in Jesus’ name
    The lyrics of a song matter even if you say you
    won’t do what they say in the song you may even
    say I am that strong. Right and wrong
    theres a difference What Jesus says is right
    clear as day and night. You gotta live
    by faith one day at a time because you don’t
    know for a fact that you’ll remain intact
    More saline for my contacts am I seein
    this clearly this clearly this God thing is happenin’
    all the time not just yearly?
    When it feels Christ is all up in your grill that’s cuz He wants
    you to trust His name still. Don’t steal, don’t kill, these
    are two commandments he has given to us so please take a leap of faith
    and learn to trust. The time is now the game is
    life, this isn’t blackjack but if you don’t play your cards right, You will surely bust, trust in Jesus with all you might you will complain that you may go insane livin’ every second for selfish gain. By calling on Jesus by depending on Him, You will win in the end cuz He has already won the fight. With the end in sight, cast your yoke on Him
    for His burden is light.
    When Christ returns up in the
    clouds, your ears may hear it cuz it’ll
    be loud. When the time is right and we
    need to remember it maybe 2 at night. This is not a TV show no one even
    knows when Christ will come back Jack, so don’t be sacked for a loss when
    the time comes you will know for a fact that it really matters now the way you act.
    When Jesus comes back He will take the believers so you’d be better off not tryin’ to fake, if you don’t have Jesus you might end up in a firery lake, I tell you this cuz I realize it’s your life at stake it matters each day the choices you make
    Jesus knows everything about you and me and everything we do He can see.
    When we are caught in the middle wonderin’ would this be right we must always
    remember He is holding us tight and every move we make is in His sight.
    The world tries to tell us you’ve got to
    be without sin just to get in to heaven
    but Jesus is tellin’ you You just got to repent and accept
    the gift that He so freely sent. I don’t need the world’s consent to tell me
    How I can be me what they are missing is how to be free
    You don’t need glasses to be among the masses of people
    who seem to be stuck in molasses, students busy takin’ classes,
    who are always askin’ for passes, the answer is Jesus so I’ll say it again.
    He came to save the world from the mess it is in He came to redeem is
    from this thing called sin.
    The world is searchin’ let me inform of Jesus’ whole life mission,
    Oh Lord please give us your vision. Jesus is on a rescue mission
    but because of who He is He leaves it your decision whether to ignore Him
    or let Him come into your heart for He offers a brand new start. He sees you as a
    work of art, like nothing you would see in any Wal-mart. You and me are worth
    more than a penny, Jesus died on the cross to buy us from sin, so if you’re on
    Christ’s team you will always win.
    The life Jesus offers is abundant
    It is in God’s word and is fire retardant. To live forever is an offer that one can’t resist,but the choice remains yours God must exist. You may reference Him every single day, but He is calling you to use His name only when you pray. Sugar Ray won’t save the day when you wake up to a brand
    new day. The way you live today matters for eternity right now and even when you’re 30.
    turn gray Jesus Christ is the way He has come to save the day. He is the potter
    We are His clay He is busy molding us when we do as He say.
    Snoop Dogg, Vanilla Ice, Eminem all tell us in there songs to smoke big bongs
    Then I look to Jesus and He says their ways are wrong, so I have written this
    song void of foul language, dirty messages can not be found this song offers a fresh
    new sound about this guy named Jesus who simply astounds.

     
  • Know

    Jeremiah 29:11
    Psalm 138:7-8

    Lord you know everything there is to know about me open up my eyes so I can see you as you really are.

    Chorus: O Lord you know when I wake up and when I fall asleep. You knew me Your eyes saw my unformed body, you knit me together in my mother’s womb. Lord before a word is on my tongue, you know it completely. I praise you for I am fearfully and wonderfully made, when I was woven together in the depths of the Earth, Your eyes saw my unformed body.

    Verse 1: All the days ordained for me were written down in your book before one of them came to be. For I know the Lord will fufill his purpose for me, “For I know the plans I have for you” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you not to harm you, to give you a future and a hope

    Chorus:

    Verse 2: Though I walk in the midst of trouble you preserve my life; You stretch out your hand against the anger of my foes, with your right hand you save me.

     
  • Example

    So many people do things without thinking (10)
    about the example that they are setting (10)
    The truth is others watch us as Christians (10)
    more than we may realize, but help us use (10)
    that opportunity to evangelize, (10)
    to show others what you’ve given unto us (10)

    Chorus: When we live our daily lives others are always watching (14)
    whether you like it or not the best way to show others (14)
    truth is to live it everyday and to walk with Jesus (14)

    Verse 1: How we act when we are alone is a measure of integrity (15)
    and builds character; when we do whats right. While walking with Jesus is (17)
    never easy, it is still important in reaching all my friends. (16)

    Verse 2: When we live our lives the way you intended for us to live, (15)
    when we follow in Your steps, we are actively showing others (15)
    the gift of life you give. (6)

    Chorus:

    Verse 3: The most effective way to show others (10)
    the only way to live is to live it out every single day. (16)
    To live the way you want us to live is never a cakewalk (15)
    but it is the only way to show others we don’t just talk (15)
    the talk but we also walk the walk. (9)

    Chorus:

    Verse 4: You’re calling us to something higher than the standard the world sets. (16)
    You’re calling us to run a different race; a race in which you have set the pace. (18)
    Won’t you please show us how to run with perseverance the race marked out for us. (19)

    Chorus:

    Verse 5: No matter what we do, please help us run it first by you (14)
    because you are our perfect example and anything that (14)
    doesn’t match up with you not setting the bar higher but it is keeping (17)
    us on the same level as the other nonbelievers and we (12)

    cannot effectively witness if we are not constantly walking the way you want us to, (19)
    we are only talking and wasting other’s time if we don’t do what you say. (18)
    If our actions don’t back up all we do and say (12)
    since we love God let us show others the way we live our lives and show them (18)
    the way to live instead of just telling others the way to live. (16)

     
  • Meet me

    When our hearts are pure we can come and meet with you. It is when I feel deserted when you want to meet with me.

    Chorus:
    I am crying out to you and you are constantly longing to meet me where I’m at, no matter what the need may be. You are calling to meet me when the road gets cloudy you will guide me and meet me on the other side, for your arms are open wide. For my sins is why you died and you love me so much that you did it just for me.

    Verse 1:
    You meet me when I need a comforter, You seek me when I seem unloveable. You find me when I feel most lost, You get a hold of me when no one else can just look at Daniel and the lions den. You wake me up with tragedies, when I feel most distant you bring me to my knees. When I feel no one cares and no one ever talks to me, I know you are the only one who can seem to get through to me. You are my strength when I feel weak, You alone I long to seek.

    Verse 2: When I feel sick and I want everything to freeze, it is then I feel you healing me from every known disease. You know me and want to meet with me, please show yourself to others so that they can be free. When I am at the bottom of the valley, trusting you with all my strength is always key. When I wander from your path of truth, you bring me back without knocking out my tooth. The Bible is your way of communicating to us on Earth, when we pray to you remind us just how much we’re worth.

     
  • Nothing will

    I thank you for loving me in such a way that only you can love me. And I can rest assured, Chorus: that nothing will separate me from you love, even if I wonder where you have gone, if I feel far from you I know it’s my fault, because you are constantly chasing after me. You’re always telling me where I should go because my plan is probably different than yours, and how you love me unconditionally, even in my hard times, you will be close by my side, even when the obstacle is big you are bigger than anything I could ever imagine. If time are hard you don’t disappear, but you are constantly drawing me near. I need to witness to my friends but how can I? If you give me the words to say, I need your hand to guide me, and I ask if there is anything I need to change?

     
  • Let us not grow weary

    Let us not grow weary and lose heart as we run the race marked out before us. Let us run the race with perseverance and the sin that so easily entangles.

    Chorus: Let us fix our eyes upon Jesus the author and perfector of our faith who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning it’s shame and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

    Verse 1:
    Let us consider him who endured such opposition from sinful man so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

    Chorus:

    Verse 2:
    God disciplines those he loves he loans and he disciplines us for our own good that we may share in his holiness. No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

    Chorus:
    Endure hardships as discipline; God is treating you like sons. Do not lose heart when he rebukes you and punishes everyone he accepts as sons.
