By the blood of Jesus Christ, I can answer and by his love and sacrifice, I am whole again. All the pieces I have torn apart, are scattered all around. There is not a trace, you took it all away.
I've been washed, I've been cleansed, I have been made free. I've been bought by the blood, my king has bled for me. The sweetest victory won at Calvary, where your love, all your love washed over me.
When the stains and shame my life, weighs me down again. Only you can purify. Restoring hope within. Every moment that I feel so far away, you're not far from me. There is no escape from the shelter of your name.
Let it rain, let it rain. Let it overtake me. Let your love flood my heart. I am finally waking. I will never be the same as long as I remember.
O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be.
O light that followest all my way, I yield my flickering torch to thee; My heart restores its borrowed ray, That in thy sunshine’s blaze its day May brighter, fairer be.
O Joy that seekest me through pain, I cannot close my heart to thee; I trace the rainbow through the rain, And feel the promise is not vain, That morn shall tearless be.
O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee; I lay in dust life’s glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red Life that shall endless be.
Everytime I try to play it safe Holding back just a little part of me I find myself forgetting what I say that I believe The promise of Your Word Is all I need I'll lay my life down And give it up I'll give it up
[Chorus:] I wanna be reckless Cause You are endless I wanna be shameless And shout Your greatness I will not be afraid To surrender my way And follow who You are I wanna be reckless, reckless
I will lose my life And just let go Because I know this world is not my home With fearless faith I won't be moved Unshakeable inside Your truth You laid Your life down And gave it up So I'll give it up
[Chorus]
I won't waste any more time My life's Yours it is not mine Use me Lord no matter what's at stake
I try to catch my breath It hasn't happened yet I'm wide awake in the middle of the night scared to death So I prayed God, would You make this stop Father please hold on to me, You're all I've got
Carry me, carry me, carry me now From my sinking sand to Your solid ground The only way I'm ever gonna make it out Is if You carry me, carry me, carry me now God carry me, carry me, carry me now
Jesus calm my heart Come near me please Lord don't let these worries get the best of me Oh I believe, that You're still here with me Cause You meant what You said when You said You'd never leave
Carry me, carry me, carry me now From my sinking sand to Your solid ground The only way I'm ever gonna make it out Is if You carry me, carry me, carry me now God carry me, carry me, carry me now
Carry me God carry me Carry me God carry me
I'm at the end of myself I know I've got nothing left Feels like I'm stuck in the valley of the shadow of death And I've been down here so long I just can't find my way out Oh God I don't stand a chance Unless You carry me now God carry me now
Carry me, carry me, carry me now From my sinking sand to Your solid ground The only way I'm ever gonna make it out Is if You carry me, carry me, carry me now God carry me, carry me, carry me now
Carry me now Carry me now Carry me now Carry me now
You were walking on the moon, now you're feeling low What they said wasn't true, you're beautiful Sticks and stones break your bones, I know what you're feeling Words like those won't steal your glow, you're one in a million
This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (Gold gold you're gold)
Well everybody keeps score, afraid you're gonna lose Just ignore they don't know the real you All the rain in the sky can't put out your fire Of all the stars out tonight, you shine brighter
This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (Gold gold you're gold)
So don't let anybody tell you that you're not loved And don't let anybody tell you that you're not enough Yeah there are days when we all feel like we're messed up But the truth is that we're all diamonds in the rough So don't be ashamed to wear your crown You're a king you're a queen inside and out You glow like the moon, you shine like the stars This is for you, wherever you are
Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh, You're gold
This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold (So hold your head) So hold your head up high, It's your time to shine From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold (Gold gold, you're gold) You're worth more than gold (Gold gold you're gold)
So don't be ashamed to wear your crown You're a king you're a queen inside and out
Sometimes it's hard to keep believing In what you can not see That everything happens for a reason Even the worst life brings If you're reaching for an answer And you do not know what to pray Just open up the pages Let His word be your strength
And hold on to the promises (Hold tight) Hold on to the promises (Alright) Jesus is alive so hold tight Hold on to the promises
All things work for the good Of those who love God He holds back nothing that will heal you Not even His own Son His love is everlasting His faithfulness Unending Oh, if God is for us who can be against us So if you feel weak
Neither life, nor death Could separate us From the eternal love Of our God who saves us
In Christ alone, my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This cornerstone, this solid ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My comforter, my all-in-all Here in the love of Christ I stand
There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain Then bursting forth in glorious day Up from the grave He rose again! And as He stands in victory Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me For I am His and He is mine Bought with the precious blood of Christ
No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me From life’s first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny No power of hell, no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from His hand Till He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I’ll stand
How long have I been in this storm? So overwhelmed by the ocean's shapeless form Water's getting harder to tread With these waves crashing over my head
If I could just see you Everything would be all right If I'd see you This darkness would turn to light
And I will walk on water And you will catch me if I fall And I will get lost into your eyes I know everything will be alright I know everything is alright
I know you didn't bring me out here to drown So why am I ten feet under and upside down Barely surviving has become my purpose Because I'm so used to living underneath the surface
If I could just see you Everything would be all right If I'd see you This darkness would turn to light
And I will walk on water And you will catch me if I fall And I will get lost into your eyes And I know everything will be alright
And I will walk on water And you will catch me if I fall And I will get lost into your eyes I know everything will be alright I know everything is alright
Early morning by the riverside, Saw an old man waiting for a bite. We started talking and he took me back in time. He said "I was young, and thought I'd always be, Then I woke up, now I'm 83. There's so much I missed, oh how I wish I could get back all that time I wasted." I see the tears of a young bride, the morning that we had our first fight. I should've held her tight. And on the day that my momma died, I hung up the phone and never said goodbye. Don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on by.
Well he looked up, tears in his eyes, Said "I'm not sure, if you were lookin' for advice. There's just something about you that reminds me of me. It ain't easy always lookin' back but it seems these days that it's all I have. What hurts me the most, is knowin' what could have been, and if I listen real close, Find More lyrics at www.sweetslyrics.com sometimes I can... Hear the sound of my little boy sayin', "Daddy can you come play with me" But I was too busy. Then one day, my baby grew up and went to war. I never thought he’d be gone in the blink of an eye. So don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on by.
I shook the old man's hand and I thanked him. And I drove home as fast as I could go, just to let her know That I need her, that I love her, That I'm never gonna let another moment like this slip on by. Don’t let it slip on by. We’re only here for a little while And God gives us only so much precious time So don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on, don't let it slip on by. Don’t let it slip on by.
I came up out of the water Raised my hands up to the Father Gave it all to him that day Felt a new wind kiss my face Walked away, Eyes wide open Could finally see where I was going It didn't matter where I'd been I'm not the same man I was then
I got off track, I made mistakes Back slid my way into that place where souls get lost Lines get crossed and the pain won’t go away I hit my knees, Now here I stand There I was, now here I am Here I am Changed
I got a lot of “Hey, I’m sorry”s The things I’ve done Man, that was not me I wish that I could take it all back I just want to tell em’ that Tell 'em that
I got off track, I made mistakes Back slid my way into that place where souls get lost Lines get crossed and the pain won’t go away I hit my knees, Now here I stand There I was, now here I am Here I am
I'm changed for the better More smiles, less bitter I'm even starting to forgive myself
I hit my knee, I’m here I stand There I was, now here I am Here I am, Here I am, Here I am Changed Yes I am I’m changed for the better. Thank God I'm changed.
The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face to shine upon you To shine upon you and be gracious And be gracious unto you
The Lord bless you and keep you The Lord lift up the light of His countenance upon you The Lord lift up the light of His countenance upon you And give you peace, and give you peace; And give you peace, and give you peace
I’m Tired I’m worn My heart is heavy From the work it takes To keep on breathing I’ve made mistakes I’ve let my hope fail My soul feels crushed By the weight of this world
And I know that you can give me rest So I cry out with all that I have left
Let me see redemption win Let me know the struggle ends That you can mend a heart That’s frail and torn I wanna know the sun can rise From the ashes of a broken life And all that’s dead inside can be reborn Cause I’m worn
I know I need to lift my eyes up But I'm too weak Life just won’t let up And I know that you can give me rest So I cry out with all that I have left
Let me see redemption win Let me know the struggle ends That you can mend a heart That’s frail and torn I wanna know the sun can rise From the ashes of a broken life And all that’s dead inside can be reborn Cause I’m worn
My prayers are wearing thin And I’m worn Even before the day begins I’m worn I’ve lost my will to fight I’m worn Heaven come and flood my eyes
Let me see redemption win Let me know the struggle ends That you can mend a heart That’s frail and torn I wanna know the sun can rise From the ashes of a broken life And all that’s dead inside can be reborn Cause all that’s dead inside will be reborn
