Im an Impatient patient

V1
Before Im done with one thing
Im on to the next
I just need to hold on to some thing
I just need a fix

Time is of the assence
Lets make it count
But when time is in abundance
I just wish the clock spins round
Faster...faster

C
Lord give me patience
And I want it NOW
Give me patience
I want it now

Cos to me silence is the most deafening noise
And to me being still is the most tiring choice
Oh let me hear your voice, I just wanna hear your voice

V2
I've never been good at
Waiting for things to happen
Nothing seems to work
Nothing brings me satisfaction

Oh help me learn to trust you
Help me learn to lean
That the only thing ill ache for
Is for you to be
Closer...Closer

C
Lord give me patience
And I want it NOW
Give me patience
I want it now

Cos to me silence is the most deafening noise
And to me being still is the most tiring choice
Oh let me hear your voice, I just wanna hear your voice


I know what you have is worth the wait



I know that you're here, in the wait

More than you know

You may keep running away
And when I call you do not answer
But when you come crawling back, you don't need to explain

It did not last long the last time we met
It did not last long the last time you sat, by my shoulder
By my shoulder
Just let me say...


I love you, more than you think you know
Even in your darkess moment, I hope you know
Cos my love is bigger than what you make it out to be
And my love is bigger than what your tiny eyes can see
Oh my love is bigger than you
My love, is more than you think you know


I know how you feel
You feel you've some sort of debt to repay
But for the record just let me say, I would you anyhow and anyway

And you are never ever not beautiful
You are never not wonderful
To me

You are never not lovely
How can you ever be not lovely
To me


I love you, more than you think you know
Even in your darkess moment, I hope you know
Cos my love is bigger than what you make it out to be
And my love is bigger than what your tiny eyes can see
Oh my love is bigger than you
My love, is more than you think you know

corporate lives

V1
Little boy
You don't know what its like to be out here
In this dog eat dog world
Where the climb to the top is full of blood and sweat and tears

Little girl
Oh the battles I fight just to make this life
A better one for you and me
With my transactions and my policies

Were living our corporate live$
We vote but we don't beautify
And we dontate but we won't sacifice our TIME

Cos
Were too busy working hard
Were too busy working hard
Were too busy working hard
But the proceeds, the proceeds goes out to you

V2
Older one
I'll never forget all you've done for me
Take heart I will
Always be there, to pay your bills

Hungry one
If only my hands could reach out to you
But i'll send this letter out
Praying someone will do something about you

Were living our corporate lives
We can't be there but we can sympatize
We wish you well and if only we all had more time..

but
Were too busy working hard
Were too busy working hard
Were too busy working hard
But the proceeds, the proceeds goes out to you

Bridge
We all need a little time
We all need a little time

Were all guilty of this crime
Were all guilty of this crime

Rain on my window

Gonna jot this one down before i forget..its a song again about the least of them. The poor, the brokenhearted, the captive, the prisoner. Or whoever might be that forgotten person in your life that needs your help. A hard one to swallow, a Prelude to my other song 'bedtime stories'


Hey there, am I of any concern to you
And would stop if you saw me burn
Hey there, I'm putting on a brave front now
You won't see the real me crumbling down, crying out

Did you catch the tears that rolled down my face
Did you catch the tears that rolled down

Or are they like rain?
Rain falling on your window pane
So easily wiped away

Are they like rain
Rain crashing on your window pane
Just watch me drip away

Hey there, you talk about how strong your God is
And Im glad you have something for yourself to believe in
But if this God was the one who caused the clouds to cry tonight
Then can he feel my pain? Can he hear my plea?

Cos im screaming but no one hears
And theres no one to wipe these tears

These tears like rain
Rain falling on your window pane
So easily swept away

Are they like rain
Rain crashing on your window pane
Just watch me fade away

You see me, but do you feel me?

Rude awakening

Follow me into the dark
But don't leave me there
Im scared
A rude awakening for this hardened hearts repair

Get rid of this shallow repentance
This false sense of security
Get rid of these lies of comfort
My death is my complacency

Empty rituals and mindless prayer
Will bring me & you despair
Unhelpful thoughts and heartless songs
Won't hold me up for long

Get rid of this shallow repentance
This false sense of security
Get rid of these lies of comfort
My death is my complacency

And I know the fall of me is my humanity
Its no wonder I keep slumbering in my selfishness
I'm tired of this half-hearted take at humility
Your arms outstrecthed again to my ungratefulness


Slap some sense into me
Cos I hate this reflection I see
Awake me from my sleep, awake me from my sleep

Get rid of this shallow repentance
This false sense of security
Get rid of these lies of comfort
My death is my complacency

And I know the fall of me is my humanity
Its no wonder I keep slumbering in my selfishness
I'm tired of this half-hearted take at humility
Your arms outstrecthed again to my ungratefulness

From my broken heart to yours

"The Lord is close to the broken-hearted, He rescues those whose spirits are crushed"

V1
I'm not gonna tell you don't cry, cos I know that it hurts
And you don't have to pretend that you're fine, when you're down in the dirt

But when you feel like letting go
Feels like theres nothing left to hold on to
Hold on..
To the one that does not change
To the one thing in life that remains the same
Hold on, just keep holding on

Chorus
If you're going through the heartbreaks of life, don't lose control
Cos itll only be a matter of time, where you'll see the glow, in all this
If you're going through the hardships of life, stay strong and fight
Just know that Hes been with you all this time, and He's in control, of all this

V2
Theres always another side to this story untold
And someday you'll realise that you were'nt that alone

One day soon,
A stronger you will sing this tune
Hold on..
To the one that does not change
To the one thing in life that remains the same
Hold on, just keep going on

Chorus
If you're going through the heartbreaks of life, don't lose control
Cos itll only be a matter of time, where you'll see the glow, in all this
If you're going through the hardships of life, stay strong and fight
Cos what you have left is more than enough, and He's in control, of all this

Bridge
Who holds the universe?
Who made the heavens and the earth?
Who took the weight of the world?
Who holds your world in His hands, who holds your world in His hands
Who holds your world in His hands

Bedtime Stories

I shake my head at the television screen
Theyre talking bout war again, and bitter things
A land of milk and honey for those who can afford
Our arms filled with destruction yet unseen

Then I go to bed
Thinking bout how our world has fallen
And I utter out a nobel plea

Won't someone help them?
Wont someone save them?

I walk down the pavements of these lonely street
At the side of my eyes, a begger on his knees
And theres the girl with such beauty in her eyes
Yet shes selling herself tonight, the only way shes known

As I walk on by
Thinking about all the misery
And i utter out this noble plea

Won't someone help him?
Won't someone save her?

My friend is hurting my friend is in need
Talks about giving up, and hopeless things
Why can't they see what I see
Why can't they spread their arms and just be free

I lie down here
Thinking about the mess we've created
And I utter out this noble plea

Won't someone help them?
Won't someone save them?
Why does no one help them?
Why does no one save them?

Then I close my eyes...



I close my eyes
And tommorrow I wake up again
The sun will rise
And everything will go on the same

I close my eyes
Put to bed these empty prayers
The light will come
And life goes on the same...
-----------------------------------------

Have they become just bedtime stories?

my conclusion

I need you so
I need you so

I've been running around in circles
And I'm back here once again
Finding for the solutions
But im still clueless, less this conclusion

That I need you so, I need you so...

How many times must I fall?
For you to pick me up again
How many times must I realise
Again...

That I need you so, I need you so...


When everthing comes to nothing
When my crowns burn down to the ground
When I lose grasp of all I hold
When my heart stops beating again...
I need you so
I need you so

How many times will I fall?
How many times will I crumble?
How many times will I come crawling back again

How many times will I break?
How many times my heart will cry out...
I need you so
I need you so

V1
I said 'Take away, everything of mine
The things that confine
This heart offered to you'

I didn't know, I was holding on so tight every night I cried
'I surrender all to you'

How can a swimmer take the ocean on, with his feet caught in the sand
Can a bird fly with its wings still in the nest?

Chorus
All I gained, is my loss today
But my broken heart will sing
Praise to the one
Who gives and takes away

V2
The only time that Ive truly won your heart
Is when im standing here with mine torn apart
And the only time that I'll ever give enough
Is when you take it all away, and theres nothing left to part from

Chorus
All I gained, is my loss today
But my broken heart will sing
Praise to the one
Who gives and takes away


You give, and you take away
Who am I to hold?
What is not mine anyway

All you give, is more than I deserve
I have more than enough and more
When Im riding here in your love

Choices

Someone reminded me I havent wrote a fast song in a long time. Well I was thinking..its probably not the season in my life, being it a time of quietly trusting in the midst of lifes challenges and uncertainties, that I would be writing a fast song. But then I realised, again through talking to someone, the best way to tackle the hardtimes is to face them with a heart of thanksgiving and joy. Sometimes its just about being thankful for the greatest gift you have received alr. And everything just becomes brand new...

V1
It feels like im on the edge
On this line between life and death
So easy to rise or fall
Oh I dont know what took me this long

Just to find you
Cos everythings so good with you
Now that Ive found you, now that ive found you...

Chorus
Whoa...It feels so right I just cant explain
Whoa...Its suddenly so obvious to me
Whoa...And I know that I will never be the same
Cos youre here in my life

V2
The choices we have to make
The decisions that twist our fate
The moments that pass us by
Could define where our destiny lies

So glad I chose you
Cos everythings so good with you
So glad I chose you, so glad I chose you...

Chorus
Whoa...It feels so right I just cant explain
Whoa...Its suddenly so obvious to me
Whoa...And I know that I will never be the same
Cos youre here in my life


You set my feet to dancing
You set my feet to dancing
You set my feet to dancing
To dancing, to dancing...

Bringing heaven into hell

V1
When every step
Is agony and pain
When the light dims
And the striving seems in vein

When my strength is gone
How do I carry on?
But then I realise, I realise...

How can this be a living hell? When youre with me
How can it be anything less than heaven? When youre here with me

Chorus
My fortress
Lift me above the waves
So I can breath...
My refuge
Lift me above the pain
So I can run...
To You

v2
You ask me to run
When I can hardly walk
You ask me to soar
When these fragile wings are torn

You ask me to face, this test of my faith
Will I let you down, will I let you down

But I can hold on a little bit longer, cos I'm holding on to you
I can be just that little bit stronger, cos I'm strong with you

Chorus
My hope
Lift me above the waves
So I can breath...
My shield
Lift me above the pain
So I can run...
To You


How can this be a living hell? When youre here with me
How can it be anything less than heaven? When youre here with me

My God
He lifts me above the waves
So I can breath...
My God
He lifts me above the pain
So I can run...

" Because he loves me, I will deliver him from pain
I will rescue him, for he acknowledges my name
I will cover him, in the shadow of my wings"
Says the Lord, says the Lord

The weight of the world

Just our own burdens to carry, and its already too much to bare. The burdens of this evil world to carry, certainly a task no one would bring upon himself. Yet he held on..with all he had in him. Cos he knew he had to.

V1
Can't take this weight, the world is getting me down;
Im on the edge of breaking down
Daggers fly from end to end;
Piercing where it hurts most

I think I have the right, the right to complain;
Of all these wrongs that I face
Just so unfair, all the despair;
Too much for me

But then, I remember
The price you paid
This pain I carry
Is just a fraction of the pain that you had to take away

Chorus
You held on, cos my life depended on it
You endured, Cos all my hope was in your hands
Even when, the pain was all that you could bare
You held on, held on to the very end

v2
How heavy was it? The weight of the world;
On the shoulders of a man
Pressed down with force
With our fallen hands

I can barely go on, I can barely keep it up;
This burden on my back
I just keep falling, falling down again
Waiting for you to save me

Then I remember
The price you paid
This weight I carry
Is just a fraction of the chains you had to take away

Chorus
You held on, cos my life depended on it
You endured, Cos all my hope was in your hands
Even when, the pain was all that you could bare
You held on, held on to the very end


You held on, just for the chance I might return
You stayed strong, cos you could not bare to watch me burn
You held on, cos I would not know what eternity could be
If you had not held on

What are we now?
But shadows that fade
What are we now?
But shadows that fade

When the light stops shining
We seize to exist
When the light stops shining
We seize to exist

Who are we now?
But dust on the scales
Without the potter
Our ambitions they fail

Our ambitions they fail
Our ambitions they fail
Who are we now?
But dust on the scales

Who is man?
But grass in the fields
And all his glory
Like the flowers they yield

But the grass withers
And the flowers fall
The valley rises
And the mountains fall

No sooner theyre planted
No sooner theyre sown
No sooner theyre rooted
No sooner theyre grown

That we fall down
We fall down down down
We fall down
We fall down down down

Do you not see?
Do you not hear?
Lift your eyes and look at the heavens
See the stars shine clear

Do you not know
Have you not heard?
Do you not know
Have you not heard?



Our Lord is the everlasting God
Creator of the ends of the earth
He will not grow tired
He will not grow weary

His strength, gives strength to the weak and the poor
And the strong man will stumble and fall
But those who hope in the Lord
Will soar...

Before the rooster crows

Sometimes I dont understand. Why am I ashamed of the one thing in my life I have to be proud of.

v1
You did not ask too much of me
I remember how you touched my eyes and made it see
Seeing things I dared not believe
I remember how you came into my life and made me believe

And how did you feel?
As you faced the crowds disappeal
Such rejection, you feel
The least I could do is to acknowledge you

Chorus
You gave me so much to live for
So much to die for
All I was searching for
All I searched for and so much more

And three times theyll ask me, who do you serve?
And even if I have to
Ill die with you
I won't disown you

V2
How could say I would do that to you?
Can you not see my heart that beats for you
How could you say I would do that to you
Did I not lay it all down just to follow you

How can it be true?
Did my feet not stand on the water too?
Even if all fall away, I never will
And the least I can do is to acknowledge you

Chorus
You gave me so much to live forSo much to die forAll I was searching forAll I searched for and so much more And three times theyll ask me, who do you serve?And even if I have toIll die with youI won't disown you
.
.
.
In the shadows, I cry to you
Why O why, did I deny you?
My Lord & King
This must be wrong
Did I feel this way all along?

Did it haunt you? While you slept in the grave
Did my betrayal leave those scars on your hands
Because of me, I chose to spare my own life
Because of me, you chose to give your own life

I gotta make this right, make this right, make this right
Im gonna make this right
I live for you even when it means to die...

Where do I run

Sometimes we think we can hide from God. Especially when it comes the tiny short-fallings we have. We can become so used to accepting them that they become part of the motion in our everyday lives, and we could very easily put them off as nothing. These could be the very things preventing us from unlocking greater blessings from the Lord. When the Lord stretches out His hand to wake us up from this state of denial we have, as much as it may hurt, embrace it, dont reject it it. It says in proverbs, do not reject the Lords discipline and rebuke for He disciplines who He loves. This rude awakening is one of the greatest measure of grace we could be given. Are we in denial? Are we afraid of consequences? Are we running?

V1
I was thinking maybe you would'nt see
I was thinking maybe you'll let me be
I was thinking give and take..

I was thinking if I met you halfway there
I could make the mistakes
The ones I choose to make..

But right there, when I thought I was right
Your love rebukes me again
And I hate it, but I pray it will not end

Chorus
If I ran to the mountain top, you'll be there
If I ran to the depths of the earth, you'll be there
If I ran, you'll catch me, surely you will
Where do I run from the eyes that looked at me before the world began?

V2
Denial is what got me here
The constant refusal
To face the problem at hand

Running through the cracks
Riddling with the circumstance
The rules that cannot bend

Right there where I thought I was right
Your love rebukes my sin
And I hate it, but I pray it will not end

Chorus
If I ran to the mountain top, you'll be there
If I ran to the depths of the earth, you'll be there
If I ran, you'll catch me, surely you will
Where do I run from the eyes that looked at me before the world began?


Bridge
Before I saw you, you saw me
Before I chased you, you chased me
Before I made up my mind, you made up your mind about me
And im asking why, why..

Why an underserving wretch like me
Why an underserving wretch like me
Why an underserving wretch like me
Why an underserving wretch like me?

the ironic plea

If I could turn back the motion
Ill go back to that moment
Your moment of agony

To wipe away the tears, the tears lost for me

Why do you weep? Why do you weep for me?
A cause so unworthy

All because, all because of the person
The man I chose to be

O such pain that I caused
I wish I could take it away, I wish I was in time to say

This is me,
This is what ive become
So dont bleed for me, dont bleed for me
Im just bound to turn around
And hurt you again, and hurt you again/
This is me, waiting for my chance to run
So dont fall for me, dont fall for me now
It aint worth
It aint worth the price to pay, the price you paid for me anyway

Here I am, so painfully aware of irony
Im suffocating, when all I need is you to breath

O such pain that I caused
I wish I could take it away, I wish I was in time to say

This is me,
This is what ive become
So dont bleed for me, dont bleed for me
Im just bound to turn around
And hurt you again, and hurt you again/
This is me, waiting for my chance to run
So dont fall for me, dont fall for me now
It aint worth
It aint worth the price to pay, the price you paid for me anyway

Clueless

v1
Whats going on in that mind of yours?
Ive been looking for the answers
And all this while I thought I understood
But now I understand im just a fool

Cos do the grass ask the sun why it shines?
Or the sand swim against the ocean

And if you hold my world in the palm of your hands
Then these hands are up in surrender

Im done trying to figure you out
Im done being wise in my eyes
Im done trying to guess what youll do next
Im leaving whats beyond me, beyond me

Chorus
Cos im clueless, im clueless
When it comes to you
Im clueless, clueless, when it comes to you
All Im sure is the promise youve made
All I need is to know that Im saved
And with you by my side, I have a clue how to face this day

v2
O how you left me, so speechless
So in awe at the sight of you
And I admit today, im helpless
Im needing less of me and more of you

Im done trying to figure you out
Im done being wise in my eyes
Im done trying to guess what youll do next
Im leaving whats beyond me, beyond me

Chorus
Cos im clueless, im clueless
When it comes to you
Im clueless, clueless, when it comes to you
All Im sure is the promise youve made
All I need is to know that Im saved
And with you by my side, I have a clue how to face this day


Help me...
Help me know im not alone
Help me...
Know that with you I am strong
Help me...
Know youre above what gets me down
Help me...
Know you were with me all this while

Cos im clueless, im clueless
When it comes to you
Im clueless, clueless, when it comes to you
All Im sure is the promise youve made
All I need is to know that Im saved
And I love you...I love you...

And with you by my side, I have a clue how to face this day

August fifth

Now I know,

Letting go is clinging on to You
Letting go is clinging on to You

Lord, you know how hard it was, for me to pray those words
But if its just one prayer you hear, then let that prayer be heard

And I will be still, in the times of testing
And I will be still, know You are God

The God of the World
The God of the Universe
The God of Kings
The God of the Small Things

The God of All
Im giving it all
Im giving it all, to the God of All


Let me no other option, then let it go to You
Give me no other choice, then to give it all to You
Trusted me with this, now this I trust with You
Im letting go im clinging on to You


'Take heart my child. Haven't I been faithful all this while?
Lift your eyes, and see the bigger view
If it hurts, then now you know its worth
And will I not carry you through, will I not carry you through?'

We like to learn the hard way

V1
Why, O why?
Do I defy
The one thing thats good to me

Why, O why?
Do I try
But I end up in defeat

How many times must you lift me up again
How many times will I break your heart
How many times must I say how many times
How many times have you wept for me

Chorus
I need you to be here
When I come crawling back
To wipe away all the tears
And forgive everything I lack

V2
Why, O why?
Do I forget
The one that remembers me
Why, O why?
Do you forget
All my iniquities

Just like a man lost at sea, that sees the shores
Just like an infant child, wanting more
Just like as if, Ive never been here before
Im running back to you

Chorus
I need you to be here
When I come crawling back
Wipe away everyone of those tears
And forgive everything I lack

Cos I dont know who I am anymore
I need you to make that clear
I come to you with these requests cos Im nothing more
Than a sinner, with his face flat on he floor


And I come to you, with nothing
Hoping that nothing, would be good enough for you
I come to you, with nothing
Hoping that nothing, would be good enough for you

And the beauty is, nothing is the only thing thats good enough for you

Say It Out

I was always the boy who kept his mouth shut/ the one who liked to fade in the background/ the one that wasnt heard/ the soft and timid voice/ the one that prefered not to stand out/ and listened to the opinions of others, a bit too much. Well, you never know do you, how somethings don't stay the same, and changes drastically, with a little help of course. Now I stand, with the mike in my hand, still shivering a little, but every bit assured, and im thinking, 'Wow'

Say It Out
V1
Sometimes it just frustrates me
How my mouth just betrays me
It betrays me, at the moment where it counts

Sometimes I just wonder
Why the words stay put at the tip, of my lips
Though its longing to come out

But today im sick and tired of being silent
Today, im sick and tired of being silent

Chorus
So Im gonna..
Say It Out, Say It Out
Cos I might never get another chance
I might never get another chance to
Say it Out, Say It Out
And Ill never know how badly
Somebody needs to hear me
Say It Out

V2
And today Ill lose consciousness
Of the things that surround me
Cos I don't wanna live my life full of maybes

And Ill never know what your reaction might be
If I never try..
But Im terrified, I will not lie

But today, I think its time I break the silence
Today I think its time i break the silence

Chorus
So Im gonna..
Say It Out, Say It Out
Cos I might never get another chance
I might never get another chance to
Say it Out...
And Ill never know how badly
Somebody needs to hear me
Say It Out...


How it amazes me, how He used this voice
With a timid attitude
To speak to the multitudes
It amazes me,
Turned it into something good
And all I have is gratitude
That He'd use this timid voice
To speak to you..

And today, Im sick and tired of being silent
Today, its about time I break the silence...

So Im gonna..
Say It Out, Say It Out!
(Cos salvations not meant to be kept inside)
And I might never get another chance
I might never get another chance to
Say it Out!
(For the sake of the one who gave me life)
And Ill never know how badly
Somebody needs to hear me
Say It Out

Conversations with the king (part II)

You said, I hate to do so but I must
Remove the consequence, but I cant
Fast forward to the time where you'll finally understand
But for now, it just takes a little trust
It just takes a little trust


I remember a time, not so long ago
That I was afraid to admt, I was on the wrong road
Falling short, in every single way that was possible

And its hard to believe, that not so long ago
I grew sick of the blessings laid on my table
And just like that, threw it all away
Threw it all away


And Im sitting here in the silences
Asking myself again and again and again

Who am I? Who am I?
That I stand to testify, that I stand to testify
Who am I? Who am I?
That I stand to testify, that I stand to testify


I remember a time, not so long ago
When you knocked on the door and asked to come in again'
When I saw your face, so full of grace
I fell to my knees
And I begged, Please forgive me
Please forgive me

And You said, I hate to do so but I must
Remove the consequence, but I cant
But trust me that soon after you'll finally understand
And for now, would you take my hand again
Would you take my hand again


So Im here again, just like that day
Down on my knees asking myself again

Who am I? Who am I?
That I stand to testify, that I stand to testify
Who am I? Who am I?
That I stand to testify, that I stand to testify



And every heartache, I have to go through
I know its for a bigger reason than me
And I thank you, that you broke my heart
When you needed to, when you needed me to be
Trusting in you, just trusting in you...
Keep breaking my heart, keep breaking my heart for you
Just break my heart for you

For you..
For you..


You said, I hate to do so but I must
Remove this cup, but I cant
Fast forward to the time where theyll finally understand
But for now, my hands are growing weak..
I stand before a crowd watching me bleed
And here I am, starring straight into your eyes
Would you testify for me?
Would you testify for me?

Faithful One

Here I come again, here before you
With not so much to ask, just to thank you, to thank you
If I had only you, it would be enough
All that I could ask, and more than enough, more than enough

How can I comprehend? The love you gave to me
I dont understand and it makes no sense how I am free
And ill say, you are faithful, faithful one
Faithful, faithful one

Time and time again, and over and over
Im hanging on the edge, holding desperate to your faithful love
Set on eternity, my heart waits patiently
For I know, salvation lives inside of me

How can I comprehend? The love you gave to me
I dont understand and it makes no sense, at your expense
You gave me new life, gave me all I need
Gave me hope, you are faithful indeed

How can I say enough?
Tell me... how can I say enough?

Here I come again, kneeling at your feet
Never lose your hold, never lose your hold on me

How can I comprehend? The love you gave to me
I dont understand and it makes no sense how I am free
And Ill say, you are faithful, faithful one
Faithful, faithful one

How can I sing enough?
Tell me...how can I sing enough?

In remembrance

Help me Lord
Im a sinner to the bone
Give me a chance
And I will stumble and fall

You search me
For more than a melody
For more than a ryhme
For more than a tune, and I pray to you

That I remember, the hand that touched my blinded eyes and made it see
That I remember, the breath of life that breathed into my empty being
That I remember, that everything I give You is what You've given me
That I remember, that I remember

Lord if I forget You, let the music come to an end
If I forget You, take this gift back from my hands
If the applause, becomes my cause
Then let the new song come no more

If You're not in my voice, then let these words fall deaf to ear
If You're not in my heartbeat, then let it all cease right here
And if I can't take You with me
Then take me nowhere...

That I remember, the scars that paid the price for my broken life
That I remember, the outstretched arms of grace that clothed me in embrace
That I remember, that You spared my life, again and again and again
That I rememeber, that I remember...

If I forget You, let the music come to an end
If I forget You, take this gift back from my hands
If the applause, becomes my cause
Then let the new song come no more

If You're not in my voice, then let these words fall deaf to ear
If You're not in my heartbeat, then let it all cease right here
And if I can't take You with me
Then take me nowhere...


Lord again I plead to You, please catch me when I fall
And if your presence is not with me, then don't send me at all
And let the fire burn no more...

If I forget You, it'll be my very end
If I forget You, it'll be my very end
Don't let me forget You Lord
Please don't let me forget...

To Fall

No one else to rely on
No other option but to worship you
Here in your dwelling..
I'll let my words be few


And I fall, I fall...deeper
I fall, I fall... deeper

Cos this love is unfailing, so its the love Ill fall into


No point in pretending
I come before you baring all my sin
Create in me a new heart
And cleanse me from within


And I fall, I fall, deeper
I fall, I fall, deeper

Only You can satisfy
Only You can satify
Only You

Cos Your love is unfailing, so its the love Im falling into


Just a glimpse of Your glory
Will take my breath away
Give me grace, give me mercy
So I can see another day
