"I Need A Silent Night"

"I Need A Silent Night"



I've made the same mistake before
Too many malls, too many stores
December traffic, Christmas rush
It breaks me till I push and shove

Children are crying while mothers are trying
To photograph Santa and sleigh
The shopping and buying and standing forever in line
What can I say?

I need a silent night, a holy night
To hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
To end this crazy day with a silent night

December comes then disappears
Faster and faster every year
Did my own mother keep this pace
Or was the world a different place?

Where people stayed home wishing for snow
Watching three channels on their TV
Look at us now rushing around
Trying to buy Christmas peace

I need a silent night, a holy night
To hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
To end this crazy day with a silent night

What was it like back there in Bethlehem
With peace on earth, good will toward men?

Every shepherd's out in the field
Keeping watch over their clock by night
And the glory of the Lord shone around them
And they were so afraid

And the angels said fear not for behold
I bring you good news of a great joy that shall be for all people
For unto you is born this day a Savior, who is Christ the Lord
And his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Prince of Peace

I need a silent night, a holy night
To hear an angel voice through the chaos and the noise
I need a midnight clear, a little peace right here
To end this crazy day with a silent night
To end this crazy day with a silent night

"I Need Thee Every Hour / Nothing But The Blood"
(feat. Vince Gill)



[Amy:]
I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.
I need Thee, O I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.

[Amy:]
What can wash away my sin?

[Amy and Vince:]
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

[Vince:]
What can make me whole again?

[Amy and Vince:]
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

[Amy, Vince and background vocals:]
Oh! Precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

[Amy:]
For my pardon, this I see,
[Amy and Vince:]
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

[Vince:]
For my cleansing, this my plea,

[Amy and Vince:]
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

[Amy, Vince and background vocals:]
Oh! Precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Oh! Precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Oh! Precious is the flow
That makes me white as snow;
No other fount I know,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

"I Surrender All"

"I Surrender All"


All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
I will ever love and trust him
In his presence daily live

[Chorus:]
I surrender all, I surrender all
All to Thee my blessed Savior
I surrender all

All to Jesus I surrender
At thy feet I humble bow
Worldly pleasures all forsaken
Take me, Jesus, Take me now

[Chorus]

All to Jesus I surrender
Lord, I give myself to thee
Fill me with thy love and power
Let thy blessing fall on me

[Chorus]

"I Will Be Your Friend"

"I Will Be Your Friend"


When every moment gets too hard
The end of the road can feel so far
No matter how much time we're apart
I'm always near you

I'll be the shelter in your rain
Help you to find your smile again
I'll make you laugh at a broken heart
Wherever you are

[Chorus:]
'Cause I'm never gonna walk away
If the walls come down someday
All alone and you feel afraid
I'll be there when you call my name
You can always depend on me
I believe until forever ends
I will be your friend

So many people come and go
But nothing can change and you I know
You'll never be just a face in the crowd
And time will show
Through the seasons and the years
I will always hold you dear
Never you fear

[Chorus]

I'll be around when every candle burns down low
And I want you and I want you to know

[Chorus]

 

[fox69]

"I Will Remember You"

"I Will Remember You"



I will be walking one day
Down a street far away
And see a face in the crowd and smile
Knowing how you made me laugh
Hearing sweet echoes of you from the past
I will remember you

Look in my eyes while you're near
Tell me what's happening here
See that I don't want to say goodbye
Our love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember
I will remember you

Later on
When this fire is an ember
Later on
When the night's not so tender
Given time
Though it's hard to remember darlin'
I will be holding
I'll still be holding to you
I will remember you

So many years come and gone
And yet the memory is strong
One word we never could learn
Goodbye
True love is frozen in time
I'll be your champion and you will be mine
I will remember you
So please remember
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you
I will remember you

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"

"I'll Be Home For Christmas"



I'm dreaming tonight of a place I love
Even more than I usually do
And although I know
It's a long road back
I promise you...

I'll be home for Christmas
You can count on me
Please have snow and mistletoe
And presents under the tree

Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

Christmas eve will find me
Where the love light gleams
I'll be home for Christmas
If only in my dreams

"I'm Gonna Fly"

"I'm Gonna Fly"



All of my friends are happy to stay
Here in this yard day after day
But something inside me has called me away
I don't understand but I know I can't stay

I'm gonna fly
No one knows where
But I'm gonna fly
I'm lighter than air

Cause I have felt for the first time
I can be myself
No more faces to hide behind
Just a smile and a dream that's mine
Even if I am the only one who wants to fly

I'm gonna fly
No one knows where
But I'm gonna fly
I'll soar thru the air

All of my life seems I've waited
For the time to start
Being the person inside of me
Unafraid of being me
No more faces to hide behind
Just a smile and a dream that's mine
Even if I am the only one who wants to fly

If I had my life to live over again
I'd run barefoot, relax a bit more
And I'd talk to my children
And I'd learn how they laugh
And I'd teach them how I've learned to fly

Cause all my life seems I've waited
For the time to start
Being this person inside of me
Unafraid of being me
Even if I am the only one who wants to fly
I'm gonna fly

"If I Could See (What The Angels See)"

"If I Could See (What The Angels See)"


If I could see what the Angels see
Behind the walls beneath the sea
Under the avalanche through the trees
Gonna be a mystery
If I could see what the Angels see

If I could hear what the Angels hear
The thunderous sound of a crashing tear
Holy holy in thy ear
I'd never doubt that God is near
If I could hear what the Angels hear
If I could hear what the Angels hear

If I could know what the Angels know
That death is just a swinging door
And spirits go where spirits go
While I'd feel like they'd never show
If I could know what the Angels know

If I could stand where the Angels stand
And watch the world while God commands
And see how love designed his plan
While [?] on His feet and hands
If I could stand where the Angels stand
Oh If I could stand where the Angels stand

If I could see what the Angels see
Behind these walls to you and me
And let the truth set me free
While I would live life differently
If I could see what the Angels see
If I could see what the Angels see
If I could see what the Angels see
If I could see what the Angels see

"If I Have To Die"

"If I Have To Die"


Do you have a heavy heart
'Cause you tried to play the part
Of a life that you don't know
And now it's scaring you
'Cause you're saying all the right words
But no one's ever heard
The voice that's crying out inside your heart

[Chorus:]
(Saying) Please don't make me die for You
I've gotta make You see
That there's a part of me I never wanna lose
But if I have to die for You
Somehow let me see
That You're more than words, I need a glimpse of You

But it's a Sunday Church again
And the habit to pretend
Is stronger than you knew, look how it's ruling you
But it's friends you try to blame
Oh, I've done it just the same
'Cause it's easier than answering to Him

You think that they're playing games
They leave and never act the same
And you don't want a part of their show
Yes you think there's something more
But not inside these Holy doors
Well what are you looking for
Yes we have to die for Him
That's the struggle that you see
'Cause it's the hardest thing we'll ever have to do
But no it's not impossible
He's been waiting so long for you
But don't be afraid
'Cause He knows the pain
Because He had to do it for you

"If These Walls Could Speak"

"If These Walls Could Speak"



If these old walls
If these old walls could speak
Of things that they remembered well
Stories and faces dearly held
A couple in love
Livin' week to week
Rooms full of laughter
If these walls could speak

If these old halls
If hallowed halls could talk
These would have a tale to tell
Of sun goin' down and dinner bell
And children playing at hide and seek
From floor to rafter
If these halls could speak

They would tell you that I'm sorry
For bein' cold and blind and weak
They would tell you that it's only
That I have a stubborn streak
If these walls could speak

If these old fashioned window panes were eyes
I guess they would have seen it all
Each little tear and sigh and footfall
And every dream that we came to seek
Or followed after
If these walls could speak

They would tell you that I owe you
More than I could ever pay
Here's someone who really loves you
Don't ever go away
That's what these walls would say

They would tell you that I owe you
More than I could ever pay
Here's someone who really loves you
Don't ever go away
That's what these walls would say
That's what these walls would say
That's what these walls would say
