Morning Has Broken by Steven Curtis Chapman feat. Caleb Chapman

[STEVEN:]
Morning has broken, like the first morning
Blackbird has spoken, like the first bird
Praise for the singing, praise for the morning
Praise for them springing fresh from the word

[CALEB:]
Sweet the rain’s new fall, sunlit from heaven
Like the first dewfall, on the first grass
Praise for the sweetness of the wet garden
Sprung in completeness where His feet pass

[STEVEN:]
Mine is the sunlight, mine is the morning
Born of the one light, Eden saw play
Praise with elation, praise every morning
God’s re•creation of the new day
God’s re•creation of the new day
Morning has broken
Morning has broken
Morning has broken

Long Way Home by Steven Curtis Chapman

 

I set out on a great adventure

The day my Father started leading me home
Said there's gonna be some mountains to climb
And valleys we're gonna go through

But I had no way of knowing
Just how hard this journey could be
Cause the valleys are deeper
And the mountains are steeper than I ever would've dreamed

But I know we're gonna make it
I know we're gonna get there soon
And I know sometimes it feels like, we're going the wrong way
It's just the long way home

I Got some rocks in my shoes
Fears I wish I could lose
That make the mountains so hard to climb
And my heart gets so heavy with the weight of the world sometimes

There's a bag of regrets,
Should've been, and not yet
That keep on dragging around
And I can hardly wait for the day I get to lay all down

I know that day is coming
I know it's gonna be here soon
And I won't turn back
even if the whole world says I'm going the wrong way
It's just the long way home

When we can't take another step
The Father will pick us up and carry us in His arms
And even on the best days,
He says to remember we're not home yet
So don't get too comfortable
Cause really all we are is just pilgrims passing through

Hey... Well I know we're gonna make it
I know we're gonna get there soon
So I keep on singing and believing
What all of my songs say

Cause our God has made a promise
And I know everything He says is true
And I know wherever we go
He will never leave us
He's going to lead us home
Every single step of the long way...

So keep on, we're gonna make it
I know, we're gonna make it
We're just taking the long way home
keep on, we're gonna make it
I know, we're gonna make it
We're just taking the long way home


So keep on, we're gonna make it
I know, we're gonna make it
We're just taking the long way home
keep on, we're gonna make it
I know, we're gonna make it
It's just the long way home

 

I Choose Jesus by Moriah Peters

The album is attracting early attention at radio, with 23 stations adding lead AC single "I Choose Jesus" its first week, and winning over live audiences, as Moriah performs new music on multiple high profile tours this winter and spring.

 

I have searched to find
The meaning of this life
Something that would fill my empty soul
Some believe a lie to start this over lie?
But I will stand and let the whole world know

I choose Jesus
I choose Jesus
The One who first chose me

I stand unashamed
Trusting in one Name
'Cause I have seen the cross and I believe
His choice comes at a cost
All other things are lost
No other love could mean so much to me

I choose Jesus
I choose Jesus
The One who first chose me
I choose Jesus
I choose Jesus
For now and eternity

He choose to love me when I felt unlovable
He choose to reach me when I felt unreachable
He carried me out of my fear and doubt
I want the world to know
I choose Jesus

I choose Jesus
I choose Jesus
The One who first chose me

I don't want anyone but you
My Jesus

I choose Jesus
I choose Jesus
For now and eternity
For now and eternity

It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

[Chorus:]
There's no need to cry
Things are gonna be alright
Dry your weeping eyes
God is on your side
There's no need to cry
Look up to the sky
God is standing by
Things are gonna be alright

I know the times are getting rough
But it's alright
I know it's hard to see the light
But it's alright
Just know that help is on the way
No matter what comes your way
Hold on

[Chorus]

I know you're tired from crying all night long
I know what it looks like right now
But just be strong
Trials come to make it better
So you'll endure it any better
Hold on

[Chorus]

I know he will make it better
He will make it better, oh yeah
I know he will make it better
Weeping endures for a night
Joy is going to come in the morning light
I know he will
Get better

[Chorus x4]

Broken by Lifehouse

The broken clock is a comfort, it helps me sleep tonight
Maybe it can stop tomorrow from stealing all my time
I am here still waiting though i still have my doubts
I am damaged at best, like you've already figured out

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
With a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain, there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on, I'm holdin' on
I'm barely holdin' on to you

The broken locks were a warning you got inside my head
I tried my best to be guarded, I'm an open book instead
I still see your reflection inside of my eyes
That are looking for a purpose, they're still looking for life

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain (in the pain), is there healing
In your name (in your name) I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin')
I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm hangin' on another day
Just to see what you throw my way
And I'm hanging on to the words you say
You said that I will be OK

The broken lights on the freeway left me here alone
I may have lost my way now, haven't forgotten my way home

I'm falling apart, I'm barely breathing
with a broken heart that's still beating
In the pain(In the pain) there is healing
In your name I find meaning
So I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),
I'm barely holdin' on to you

I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'), I'm holdin' on (I'm still holdin'),
I'm barely holdin' on to you

 "Dark Horses" is a song written and recorded by the alternative rock band Switchfoot, and serves as the first single off their eighth studio album entitled Vice Verses. It was debuted on the band's official website on July 20, 2011

I’ve made my mistakes
I’ve seen my heart cave in
I’ve got my scars
I’ve been to hell and back again

Born for the blue skies
We’ll survive the rain
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain

[Chorus]
We’re singing…
Hey, You can’t count us out
We’ve been living up against the crowd
Yeah, we are the Dark Horses
We’re singing…
Hey! It’s not over now
We’ve been down but we’ve never been out
Yeah, we are the Dark Horses

We found a way out
The city takes everything it can
But outside the crowds
I can feel my lungs again

We’re singing…

We don’t care what they say
We know we’ll find a way
Yeah!… We are the Dark Horses

Laa la-la-la-la-laa

Suitcases by Dara Maclean

How can you move when they’re weighing you down
What can you do when you’re tied to the ground, yeah
You carry your burdens, heavy like gravity
Just let them go now, there’s freedom in release

You can’t run when you’re holding suitcases
It’s a new day throw away your mistakes and open up your heart
Lay down your guard, you don’t have to be afraid

Just breathe, your load can be lifted
There’s a better way when you know you’re forgiven
Open up your heart, lay down your guard
You don’t have to be afraid

Can you imagine what it’s like to be free
Well, send those bags packing, they’re not what you need
Abandon your troubles on the side of the street
Just let them go now, believe me

You can’t run when you’re holding suitcases
It’s a new day throw away your mistakes and open up your heart
Lay down your guard, you don’t have to be afraid

Just breathe, your load can be lifted
There’s a better way when you know you’re forgiven
Open up your heart, lay down your guard
You don’t have to be afraid

There’s nothing hold you back now, just run

You can’t run when you’re holding suitcases
It’s a new day throw away your mistakes and open up your heart
Lay down your guard, you don’t have to be afraid

Just breathe, your load can be lifted
There’s a better way when you know you’re forgiven
Open up your heart, lay down your guard
You don’t have to be
You don’t have to be afraid

Jesus Loves Me by Whitney Houston

Yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so
Jesus loves me this I know
For the Bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong

Yes Jesus loves me
Oh, yes Jesus loves me
Yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so

Pressing on the upper way
Always guide me Lord I pray
Undeserving, and stubbornly never fail to love me still

Yes Jesus loves me
Oh yes Jesus loves me
Oh yes Jesus loves me, for the Bible tells me so
Yes Jesus loves me, love
Oh yes Jesus loves me for the Bible tells me so
For the Bible tells me so

(Feels so good to know) that I'm never alone
See, sometimes I'm lonely but never alone
For the Bible tells, for the Bible tells
For the Bible tells me so

See I know that he loves me
Whether I'm right, whether I'm wrong

When You Believe by Mariah Carey ft Whitney Houston

Whitney:
Many nights we prayed, with no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hopeful song, we barely understood
Now we are not afraid, although we know there’s much to fear
We were moving mountains long, before we knew we could

Chorus:
There can be miracles, when you believe
Though hope is frail, It’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles, you can achieve
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe

Mariah:
In this time of fear, when prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds, too swiftly flown away
Yet now I’m standing here, my heart so full I can’t explain
Seeking faith and speaking words, I’d never thought I’d say

Chorus:
There can be miracles, When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail, It’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles, You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe

Bridge: (Both)
They don’t always happen when you ask
And it’s easy to give into your fear
But when you’re blinded by your pain
Can’t see you way clear through the rain
A small but still resilient voice
Says help is very near

Chorus: (Both)
There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It’s hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you, you will when you believe
Just believe, just believe
You will when you believe

I know you, who are you now?
Look into my eyes if you can't remember
Do you remember? Oh

I can say, I can still find
You are the only voice my heart can recognize
But I can hear you now, yeah

I'll never be the same
I'm caught inside the memories
The promises, our yesterdays
And I belong to you

I just can't walk away
'Cause after loving you
I can never be the same

And how can I pretend I never knew you
Like it was all a dream, no
I know I'll never forget
The way I always felt with you beside me
And how you loved me then, yeah

I'll never be the same
I'm caught inside the memories
The promises, our yesterdays
And I belong to you

I just can't walk away
'Cause after loving you
I can never be the same

You left me here then I watched you disappear
You left this emptiness inside
And I can't turn back time

No, stay
Nothing compares to you, nothing compares to you
I can't let you go, can't let you go, I can't let go

I'll never be the same
Not after loving you
Not after loving you, no

I'll never be the same
I'm caught inside the memories
The promises, our yesterdays
And I belong to you

I just can't walk away
'Cause after loving you
I can never be the same

I can never be the same
I will never be the same

I just can't walk away
No, I can't walk away from you

I should have seen those signs all around me,
But I was comfortable inside these wounds;
So go ahead and take another piece of me now
While we all bow down to You;

You tear me down and then You pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me You can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and You’ll be
The death of me!

How can You end my affliction
If You’re the sickness and I’m the cure?
Too long I’ve faked this addiction,
Another sacrifice to make us pure;

You tear me down and then You pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me You can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and You’ll be
The death of me!

You tear me down and then You pick me up,
You take it all and still it’s not enough,
You try to tell me You can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and You’ll be
The death of me!

I won’t forget;
I cannot forget this;
I won’t forget;
I’ll never forget this;
I won’t forget;
I cannot forget this;
I won’t forget;
I’ll never forget this;

I won’t forget!
I cannot forget this!
I won’t forget!
I’ll never forget!

You know I can never prove this solution;
You aren’t the one that I thought you were;
And so I learn to embrace this illusion,
The line that separates- it starts to blur;

You tear me down and then You pick me up,
You take it all and say it’s not enough,
You try to tell me You can heal me,
But I’m still bleeding and You’ll be
The death of me!

And you’ll be the death of me!

I will not forget!
I cannot forget this!
And You’ll be the death of me!

The song "Frontline", along with "Bring Me Down", reached #1 on the Christian rock charts.

On 2005, the album was nominated for a Dove Award for Rock Album of the Year at the 36th GMA Dove Awards.

It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death

Stand beside one another 'cause it ain't over yet
I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down
You and I will be the ones that are holding the crown in the end

When it's over we can say, "Well done"
But not yet 'cause it's only begun
So, pick up and follow me we're the only ones
To fight this thing until we've won

We drive on and don't look back
It doesn't mean we can't learn from our past
All the things that we might've done wrong
We could've been doing this all along

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

And we'll be carrying on until the day
It doesn't matter anymore
Step aside you forgot what this is for
We fight to live, we live to fight
And tonight you'll hear my battle cry

We live our lives on the front lines
We're not afraid of the fast times
These days have opened up my eyes
And now I see where the threat lies

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

We live our lives on the front lines
We're not afraid of the fast times
We live our lives on the front lines
We're not afraid

We've got to lead the way
We've got to lead the way

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

Everybody with your fists raised high
Stand beside on the front line
Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry

Everybody with your fists raised high
Let me hear your battle cry tonight
Stand beside or step aside
We're on the front line

The die has been cast by Godfrey Birtill

The die has been cast by Godfrey Birtill

And I've stepped over the line.
The decisions been made,
I'm going forward.
And I will not look back,
Let up or even slow down
And I won't back away,
I'm following Jesus.

My shackles are gone,
My feet are now free,
So over the wall I will jump!

I've got to get up,
I've got to get out,
I've got to get in
The purpose of God. (x2)

Our Lamb has conquered.
Let us follow Him, let us follow Him.

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run.
Run with the fire.

Low living no more,
Cheap talk, cheap giving, no more.
No colourless dreams.
I'm going forward.
And I don't have to be right,
First, tops, or recognized,
And I don't have to lead:
I'm following Jesus.

Cry Out To Jesus by Third Day

Album : Wherever You are

Release date : November 1, 2005

Lyrics by : Mac Powell

Music by : Third Day

To everyone who's lost someone they love

Long before it was their time
You feel like the days you had were not enough
When you said goodbye

And to all of the people with burdens and pains
Keepin' you back from your life
You believe that there's nothing
And there is no one who can make it right

There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are

Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus

For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on
Have lost all of their faith in love
And they've done all they can to make it right again
Still it's not enough

For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains
You try to give up but you come back again
Just remember that you're not alone
In your shame and your suffering

There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are

Cry out to Jesus

When you're lonely
And it feels like the whole world is falling on you
You just reach out
You just cry out to Jesus

Cry to Jesus

To the widow who suffers from being alone
Wipin' the tears from her eyes
For the children around the world without a home
Say a prayer tonight

There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
That meets you wherever you are

There is hope for the helpless, rest for the weary
And love for the broken hearts
There is grace and forgiveness, mercy and healing
That meets you wherever you are

Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus

Cry out to Jesus
Cry out to Jesus

Song Story 

'We have come a long way since we first started, and have been through a lot as both individuals and as a band during the 11+ years we've been together. We have grown from young bachelors with hardly a care in the world into happily married 'mature' men with many children and responsibilities. 

The one thing that I have grown to realize is that not only do I have more burdens and responsibilities, but I am able to see and understand how others have the same burdens and trials. When you are younger, you know that they are there, but you can't fully understand their impact until you are older. 

As a band, we have had many friends and family who have experienced significant hardships and loss over the past couple of years...so a song like this was a natural extension of what we have been going through. In each verse of Cry Out To Jesus, there are specific people in my mind... when I sing each line...they are directly connected with someone 

I know. My hope is that you are able to also connect personally to each verse through your own experiences. Not only do we all know these people, but we are these people. In those times of trial, I hope that we can remember we can find our strength, peace and hope when we cry out to Jesus.

–Mac Powell–

Give Me Jesus by Jeremy Camp

In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I am alone,
When I am alone,
When I am alone,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I come to die,
When I come to die,
When I come to die,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

There will be a day by Jeremy Camp

I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings, and the hurt that tries to grab
The many trials that seem to never end, His word declares this truth,
That we will enter in this rest with wonders anew

But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering

(Chorus)
There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day, we'll hold on to you always

I know the journey seems so long
You feel you're walking on your own
But there has never been a step
Where you've walked out all alone

(Chorus)

Troubled soul don't lose your heart
Cause joy and peace he brings
And the beauty that's in store
Outweighs the hurt of life's sting

I can't wait until that day where the very one I've lived for always will wipe away the sorrow that I've faced
To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery this is why this is why I sing

You Never Let Go by Jeremy Camp

Even though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle
Of the storms of this life
I won't turn back, I know You are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming
For the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know You here on the earth

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

Yes, I can see a light that is coming
For the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

I Look To You by Whitney Houston

Music video by Whitney Houston performing I Look To You. (C) 2009 RCA/JIVE Label Group, a unit of Sony Music Entertainment

As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
I’m lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I’ve been through
Who on earth can I turn to?

Chorus:
I look to you,
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you,
I look to you
And when melodies are gone In you I hear a song
I look to you

'bout to lose my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I've taken
Led to my regret
And I don't know if I'm go'n make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

Chorus:

My levees are broken
My walls are coming down on me
My rain is falling
Defeat is calling
I need you to set me free
Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me!



Whitney Houston 'I Look to You' LIVE - Good Morning America 02/09/09 

Whitney Houston in Los angeles with kim burell BET 2011

 

This is the song R. Kelly wrote years ago for Whitney Houston.

 

Whitney talks about her life over the last several years.

 “I thank God for NEVER letting me go..” 

“I shed a lot of stuff, a lot of unnecessary weight in the last three or four years. I left a lot of old luggage behind, and when I did, the blessings just started pouring on me, and the light in my spirit started to lift again”

Cissy Houston wrote her daughter in a letter published in the program.

"I never told you that when you were born, the Holy Spirit told me that you would not be with me long. And I thank God for the beautiful flower he allowed me to raise and cherish for 48 years.Rest, my baby girl in peace." -mommie-

Houston, who was 48, died Feb. 11.2012 in California, the day before the Grammy awards.

Candles burn at a memorial to Whitney Houston outside New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, N.J., early Saturday. Whitney Houston's funeral took place on Saturday at the church where she sang in the choir as a girl.

Let Go by DeWayne Woods

I couldn't seem to fall asleep
There was so much on my mind
Searching for that peace
But the peace I could not find
So then I knealed down to pray
Praying help me please
Then He said you don't have to cry
Cause I'll supply all your needs

As sooon as I stop worrying (soon as I stopped worrying)
Worrying how the story ends (When I let go)
I let go (And I let) and I let God (let Him have)
(Let Him Have) Let God have His way
(That's when things) That's when things start happening
I'll stop looking at back then
I let go and I'll let God have His way

There so much going on
Sometimes I can't find my way
And often times I struggle
Struggle from day to day
I have to realize that it's not my battle
It's not my battle to fight
I have to know if I to put it in His hands
That everything will be alright

(Back to Chorus)

Let go
Let God x5
My brother let go
And let God
My sister you can't handle it
Let God
Oh let go
And let God [x3]
Let go
Let God [x6]

Take my hand to the promise land
