"Faithless Heart"

"Faithless Heart"


At times the woman deep inside me
Wanders far from home
And in my mind I live a life
That chills me to the bone
A heart, running for arms out of reach
But who is the stranger my longing seeks
I don't know
But it scares me through and through
Cause I've a man at home
Who needs me to be true

[Chorus:]
Oh faithless heart
Be far away from me
Playing games inside my head
That no one else can see
Oh faithless heart
You tempt me to the core
But you can't have a hold on me
So don't come around anymore

God you know the feelings here
Could wipe my world away
Ravaging the promises
A stronger heart once made
So hold me, I'm falling so fast
And tell me that the fighting inside will pass
As I walk away
And find the strength to choose
The man who waits for me
With a heart that's true

[Chorus 2x]

"Family"

"Family"



Where have you come from
Where are you going
Tell me what's brought you here now
Is your heart singing
Then share what you're bringing

We all are a part of the show
'Cause we are all going home
'Cause we are a family and we are all going home
Are you listening
We are all going home so come join the family
'Cause we are all going home

But is your heart quiet
Is something not right
Can you tell me what's blocking the way
Well just ask the Father
He knows every problem
He'll carry that burden away

'Cause we are all going home
'Cause we are a family and we are all going home
Are you listening
We are all going home so come join the family
'Cause we are a family and we are all going home
Yes we are all going home

"Fat Baby"

"Fat Baby"


I know a man
Maybe you know him, too
You never can tell
He might even be you
He knelt at the altar
And that was the end
He's saved and that's all
That matters to him
His spiritual tummy
It can't take too much
One day a week
He gets his spiritual lunch
On Sunday he puts on
His spiritual best
And gives his language
A spiritual rest

[Chorus:]
(He's just a fat)
He's just a fat little baby
He wants his bottle
And he don't mean maybe
He's sampled solid food
Once or twice
But he says doctrine
Leaves him cold as ice

He's been baptized, sanctified
Redeemed by the blood
But his daily devotions
Are stuck in the mud
He knows the books of the Bible
And John 3:16
He's got the biggest King James
You've ever seen

I've always wondered
If he'll grow up someday
He's momma's boy
And he likes it that way
If you happen to see him
Tell him I said
He'll never grow
If he never gets fed

[Chorus]

He's just a fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat
A fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat
A fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, little baby

"Father"

"Father"



Father, blessed Father, it's morning again
I give You Father, myself Father, continue Your plan
I know together we can climb mountains in the sky
No one can stop us when I'm standing by your side
When trouble's knocking here again
I'll tell him Jesus has my hand
He'll walk me through

Father, loving Father, create in me
A pure love Father, Your love Father... instill it in me
I remember the nights I've cried for You
Now I only have to die for you

Thank you Lord, You've made it clear just for me
I see the light, it's burning out the night
Oh Father, it's morning, morning, morning...

"Father's Eyes"

"Father's Eyes"


I may not be every mother's dream for her little girl
And my face may not grace the mind of everyone in the world
But that's all right as long as I can have one wish I pray
When people look inside my life, I want to hear them say

[Chorus:]
She's got her Father's eyes, her Father's eyes
Eyes that find the good in things
When good is not around
Eyes that find the source of help
When help just can't be found
Eyes full of compassion, seeing every pain
Knowin' what you're going through, and feeling it the same
Just like my Father's eyes
My Father's eyes
My Father's eyes
Just like my Father's eyes

And on that day when we will pay for all the deeds we have done
Good and bad they'll all be had to see by everyone
And when you're called to stand and tell just what you saw in me
More than anything I know, I want your words to be

[Chorus]

"Fight"

"Fight"



You know some days I like me
Some days I don't
Some days I try with passion
Sometimes I won't
I might just hold my guard up
And lock my heart up tight
But it's the door that's open
Letting in the light
There's a battle raging
Inside of me
It's a holy struggle
And it won't let go of me

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

I used to sit and ponder
If I'd be fine
If Jesus lived His own life
And I lived mine
But love is such a magnet
It pulled me night and day
Until my needy heart
Just couldn't stay away
Life can drive you crazy
Or just about
But even when it's most frustrating
This kid's not walking out

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
Sure it's tough but I won't deny it
No no no
I don't want to waste my life hiding
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

I've made up my mind now
I don't want to lose out now (unguarded)
Beginning to see now
What the fight is about (unguarded heart)
I gotta stay open
Keep defenses all down (unguarded)
Don't want to be hiding
When the love comes round

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

No no no
I don't want to stop the fighting
Wo wo wo
Sure it's tough but I won't deny it
No no no
I don't want to waste my life hiding
Wo wo wo
I just want to live right

"Fill Me With Your Love"

"Fill Me With Your Love"



But there are so many
Who don't know the reason
Their lives are wasting away
Just souls without purpose
They wonder in darkness
Without a thought for the day
Well, I'm no Savior
I'm just a window
Through which Your sweet love light can shine
So clean out the corners of my darkened pane
And fill me with Your love again

Fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
I open my heart and soul for you to enter me
And fill me with Your love again

Fill me with Your love again
Fill me with Your love again
I open my heart and soul for you to enter me
And fill me with Your love again
I open my heart and soul for you to enter me
And fill me with Your love again

"Find A Way"

"Find A Way"


You tell me your friends are distant
You tell me your man's untrue
You tell me that you've been walked on
And how you feel abused

So you stand here an angry young woman
Taking all the pain to heart
I hear you saying you want to see changes
But you don't know how to start

[Chorus:]
Love will find a way (How do you know)
Love will find a way (How can you see)
I know it's hard to see the past and still believe
Love is gonna find a way
I know that
Love will find a way (A way to go)
Love can make a way (Only love can know)
Leave behind the doubt
Love's the only out
Love will surely find a way

I know this life is a strange thing
I can't answer all the why's
Tragedy always finds me
And I'm taken again by surprise

I could stand here an angry young woman
Taking all the pain to heart
But I know that love can bring changes
And so we've got to move on

[Chorus]

If our God His Son not sparing
Came to rescue you
Is there any circumstance
That He can't see you through

[Chorus]

"Find What You're Looking For"

"Find What You're Looking For"


What would they find if they uncovered all my tracks
Of roads I'd snuck down and darkness and never turn back
Well they'd find what they're looking for
Secrets and so much more
What would they find if they searched for a heart of gold
They'd find sacrifices of time and money never told
Yeah they'd find what they're looking for
Kindness and so much more

[Chorus:]
Cause there's so much good in the worst of us
So much bad in the best of us
It never makes sense for any of us
To criticize the rest of us
We'll just find what we're looking for
We'll find it and so much more

What would I find if I turned back the time on your face
Could I piece together the memories that have made you this way
I might find what I'm looking for
Understanding and so much more

[Chorus]

Haven't we all learned the best life lessons
By falling and falling down hard
If we're looking for somebody's failures
We won't have to look very far

[Chorus]

What would they find if they uncovered all my tracks

"First Love"

"First Love"




You are my first love sweet and gentle as the night
Just being near You now is like a lullaby
All that I have I'd give away to follow You
I can't imagine having life without you Oh...

When all these worldly battles seem to never cease
You simply lift me up and rest me in Your peace
I heard some people say you're only in my mind
I hope that someday You choose to find them.

All other loves will slowly fade like dying flame
Tomorrow, now, and yesterday You're still the same
I wait with longing heart to see You come again
Your sweet and tender love will never end
