Song Lyrics | HEAD ABOVE WATER

VERSE 1:
I've got to keep the calm before the storm.
I don't want less, I don't want more.
Must bar the windows and the doors
to keep me safe, to keep me warm.

VERSE 2:
Yeah, my life is what I'm fighting for.
Can't part the sea, can't reach the shore.
And my voice becomes a fighting force.
I won't let this pull me overboard.

CHORUS 1:
God, keep my head above water;
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there, at the altar,
as I fall down on my knees.
Don't let me drown, drown, drown!
Don't let me,
Don't let me, don't let me drown!

VERSE 3:
So pull me up from down below.
'Cause I'm underneath the undertow.
Come dry me off and hold me close -
I need You now; I need You most!

CHORUS 1:
God, keep my head above water;
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there, at the altar,
As I fall down on my knees.
Don't let me drown, drown, drown!
Don't let me,
Don't let me, don't let me drown!

BRIDGE:
And I,
I can't see in the stormy weather.
I can't seem to keep it all together.
And I,
I can't swim the ocean,
Like this, forever.
And I can't breathe.

CHORUS 2:
God, keep my head above water.
I lose my breath at the bottom.
Come rescue me, I'll be waiting.
I'm too young to fall asleep.

CHORUS 3:
God, keep my head above water;
Don't let me drown, it gets harder
I'll meet you there, at the altar,
As I fall down on my knees.
Don't let me drown, drown, drown!
Don't let me,
Don't let me, don't let me drown!

Don't let me drown, drown, drown!
Don't let me,
Don't let me, don't let me drown!

Song Lyrics | GOD WITH US

VERSE 1:
He is with us in this season
When silence fills the home.
When the lights that you once loved
Leave you aching and alone.
VERSE 2:
He is with us in the distance
Between two shattered hearts.
When you're standing
In the same room,
But half a world apart.

CHORUS:
He is with us, always -
In our joy and in our pain;
In the lonely midnight,
Keep looking up!
Love has come: God with us!

VERSE 3:
He is with us when the evening falls,
And all laughter fades.
When the emptiness
Comes creeping back;
Creeping back, and
Just steals your joy away.

CHORUS:
He is with us, always -
In our joy and in our pain;
In the lonely midnight,
Keep looking up!
Love has come: God with us!

BRIDGE:
Can you hold on now;
Can you just stay strong?
No matter how it feels,
He is with you!
In what you're facing now,
Know you're not alone;
Let this be your hope,
He is Emmanuel!

CHORUS:
He is with us, always -
In our joy and in our pain;
In the lonely midnight,
Keep looking up!
Love has come: God with us!
He is with us, always -
In our joy and in our pain;
In the lonely midnight,
Keep looking up!
Love has come: God with us!

SONG LYRICS: NEVER ALONE

VERSE 1:
I waited for you today,
but you didn't show - No, no, no.
I needed you today;
so where did you go?
You told me to call;
Said you'd be there;
And though I haven't seen you,
Are you still there?

CHORUS:
I cried out, with no reply;
I can't feel you by my side.
I'll hold tight to what I know -
You're here and I'm never alone!

VERSE 2:
And though I cannot see you,
and I can't explain why,
Such a deep, deep reassurance
You've placed in my life! Oh -

PRECHORUS:
We cannot separate;
You're part of me!
And though You're invisible,
I'll trust the unseen!

CHORUS:
I cried out, with no reply;
I can't feel you by my side.
I'll hold tight to what I know -
You're here and I'm never alone!

PRECHORUS:
We cannot separate;
You're part of me!
And though You're invisible,
I'll trust the unseen!

CHORUS:
I cried out, with no reply;
I can't feel you by my side.
I'll hold tight to what I know -
You're here and I'm never alone!
I cried out, with no reply;
I can't feel you by my side.
I'll hold tight to what I know -
You're here and I'm never alone!

Song Lyrics |
THE STRENGTH TO LET GO

VERSE 1:
I don't like to admit when I'm wrong
and need gifts of forgiveness
Instead of applause.
I was dying to prove to myself
I could make it alone.
It took years to confess that
Your love was the best
at unraveling all of my pride.
Had to laugh at myself when
I realized you were my home

CHORUS:
Give me the strength to let go;
Give me the strength to surrender
Give me the strength to stop holding on,
I've been holding on so long
Give me the strength to let go;
Show me the way to come home
Show me the way to come home

VERSE 2:
Yeah, I'm stubborn and bold,
But sometimes it gets old fighting
Voices inside of my brain.
I was trying to pretend I was fine,
When inside it was war.
With the stumbling beat
Of my heart and my feet
and the faults of my failures and pain.
To think all of this time I have wings
That were ready to soar!

CHORUS:
Give me the strength to let go;
Give me the strength to surrender
Give me the strength to stop holding on,
I've been holding on so long
Give me the strength to let go;
Show me the way to come home
Show me the way to come home

BRIDGE:
Oh, love, light the way home,
Light up my soul;
I choose mercy instead of control
My life is on loan, forgive and let go;
I embrace a belief I don't know
What a beautiful sound,
To lay your life down;
Your forgiveness is where I am found.
Here in your arms, I finally let down
I am lightning and You are the ground
I am lightning and You are the ground

CHORUS:
Give me the strength to let go;
Give me the strength to surrender
Give me the strength to stop holding on,
I've been holding on so long
Give me the strength to let go;
Show me the way to come home
Show me the way to come home
Show me the way to come home

Song Lyrics | SAHARA

VERSE 1:
Lying on my side,
knowing of thirst is how I'll die;
Chalk on my tongue.
Lying on the night beneath the dunes
is where I lie to block the sun.
Trying to ignite some sort of passion
from inside to overcome.
This feeling of desertion can't be worse
than never having anyone!

CHORUS:
So I'll ask one thing;
Just one thing of you:
Don't ever turn me loose,
Even when I turn my back!

VERSE 2:
A lion on his side -
Was it the lying or his pride
which brought him down?
Once the king of beasts,
but now they feast on the thoughts
beneath his vacant crown!
Trying to decide was it the lying
or the pride which brought it down?
To be alone, to be dethroned -
believe me, I know all about it now!

[REPEAT CHORUS]

BRIDGE:
I never told you then,
that I'd be easy to love.
Supposedly I'm a man,
but I felt like a cub!
I wandered into the plains
further and farther away,
Not ever knowing that
I'd never come back the same!
As my organs gave way
I swear I felt something burst.
It's been thirteen days
and I'm dying of thirst!
As for the birds of prey,
I pray that someone else
will get here first!
I'm not alone, I'll be alright -
Just take these bones
and bring them back to life!

CHORUS 2:
So I'll ask one thing;
Just one thing of you:
Don't ever turn me loose,
So I'll ask one thing;
Just one thing of you:
Don't ever turn me loose!
Don't ever turn me loose;
Don't ever turn me loose -
Even when I turn my back!

Song Lyrics | ROADS UNTRAVELED

VERSE 1:
Weep not for roads untraveled.
Weep not for paths left alone.
'Cause beyond every bend,
Is a long blinding end.
It's the worst kind of pain I've known.

VERSE 2:
Give up your heart left broken.
And let that mistake pass on.
'Cause the love that you lost
Wasn't worth what it cost,
And in time you'll be glad it's gone.

INTERLUDE:
Woah-oo-oh-oh,
Woah-oo-ohh,
Woah-oo-oh-oh-oh,
Woah-oo-ohh

VERSE 3:
Weep not for roads untraveled.
Weep not for sights unseen.
May your love never end,
And if you need a friend,
There's a seat here alongside me.

[REPEAT INTERLUDE]

VERSE 4*:
Weep not for roads untraveled.
I’ve seen the peace you’ll know.
Because the pain that you feel
Doesn’t make Me less real,
I’m right here when you need a home!

[REPEAT INTERLUDE]

HELP IS ON THE WAY
(MAYBE MIDNIGHT)

CHORUS 1:
It may be midnight or midday;
Never early, never late!
He gon' stand by what He claim -
Lived enough life to say:

VERSE 1:
I heard your heart. I see your pain.
Out in the dark; Out in the rain.
Feel so alone; Feel so afraid.
I heard you pray in Jesus' name.

CHORUS 2:
It may be midnight or midday.
Never early, never late!
He gon' stand by what He claim -
I've lived enough life to say:

POST-CHORUS:
Help is on the way!
(Roundin' the corner!)
Help is on the way!
(Comin' for ya!)
Help is on the way!
(Yeah, yeah)
I've lived enough life to say:
Help is on the way!

VERSE 2:
Sometimes it's days;
Sometimes it's years.
Some face a lifetime of falling tears.
But He's in the darkness;
He's in the cold.
Just like the morning,
He always shows!

CHORUS 2:
It may be midnight or midday.
Never early, never late!
He gon' stand by what He claim -
I've lived enough life to say:

POST-CHORUS:
Help is on the way!
(Roundin' the corner!)
Help is on the way!
(Comin' for ya!)
Help is on the way!
(Yeah, yeah)
I've lived enough life to say:
Help is on the way!

BRIDGE:
Well, I've seen my share of troubles,
But the Lord ain't failed me yet!
So I'm holding on to the promise, y'all,
That He's rolling up His sleeves again!
Said I've seen my share of troubles,
But the Lord ain't failed me yet!
We'll keep holding on to the promise, y'all,
That He's rolling up His sleeves again!

BRIDGE 2:
Rolling up, rolling up,
Don't you know it?
Rolling up his sleeves again!
(I can see him rolling!)
Rolling up, rolling up,
(Help is coming!)
Rolling up his sleeves again!

CHORUS 2:
It may be midnight or midday.
Never early, never late!
He gon' stand by what He claim -
I've lived enough life to say:
It may be midnight or midday.
Never early, never late!
He gon' stand by what He claim -
I've lived enough life to say:

Help is on the way!
Help is on the way!
(Roundin' the corner!)
Help is on the way!
I've lived enough life to say:
Help is on the way!

Sometimes sorrow is the door to peace.
Sometimes heartache is the gift I need.
You're faithful, faithful In all things!

You're still my rock, my hope remains -
I'll rest in the arms of Jesus—

There is deep joy that You give to me.
Where hurt meets the healing
Is a holy thing.
I see goodness, Your goodness
In all things.

You're still my rock, my hope remains -
I'll rest in the arms of Jesus—

The Lord is my shepherd,
I shall not want;
He makes me lie down in green pastures.

Leads me to still waters;
And He restores my soul!

I shall not want;
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
The Lord is my shepherd,
Leads me to still waters;
And He restores my soul!

In every high, in every low,
On mountaintops, down broken roads,
You're still my rock, my hope remains -
