"Sweet Surrender"

"Sweet Surrender"


It's not a mysterious wind, and
It's not the thunder willing in
It's the spirit that I feel within that's calling
I understand but I can't explain
Now I see love in a different way
And with the sing leap the faith
I'm falling
Into Your loving arms
Showing no resistance
There's a peace that flows over me

Sweet surrender
Love me tender
You have captured my desire and heart completely
Sweet surrender
Yours forever
I will gladly give my all to You
Receive me
Oh Lord I am Yours

Your love of us has no escape
But I don't feel the need to run away
My heart has found a place to stay here with You
Nothing else could satisfy
The deep void that I had inside
From all the multiple battles I had lived through

Now here in Your loving arms
I have gone the distance
I will rest my soul in Your embrace

Sweet surrender
Love me tender
You have captured my desire and heart completely
Sweet surrender
Yours forever
I will gladly give my all to You
Receive me

'Cause I have gone the distance
I will rest my soul in Your embrace

Sweet surrender
Love me tender
You have captured my desire and heart completely
Oh Lord I am Yours
Oh Lord I am Yours

"Tango"

"Tango"


Love is a fiery dance of give and take
The game of tug of war
Can be so tantalizing
We tend to fight over
Who's right, who's wrong
We push the buttons
That keep the tension rising

[Chorus]
Whay-oh, oh whay-oh
Whay-oh, oh whay-oh,
I think it's time to tango
Whay-oh, Oh Whay-Oh, Whay-Oh, Oh-whay
Sometimes you gotta tango

You like to keep it civilized and calm
I like the drama
It exposes all the feelings
We won't resolve it
If we both shut down
We gotta work it out
Before we hit the ceiling

[Chorus]

Que se Muevan ("That they move")
Que se Baila ("That it's danced")
Let's dance together
Baby you and me
Can't let our differences
Ever come between us
We'll find the rhythm
If we meet halfway
Let's not get fiesty
Just because we're Mars and Venus

"Tell Me Again"

"Tell Me Again"


Today I had one of those days
Where every step I tried to take
Ended with me on my face

My confidence crumbles like dust
Right now my mistakes
Are so much bigger than my trust

Won’t be the last time
But if you don’t mind

Tell me again
That I am loved
Tell me again
My heart cannot hear it enough

I know you’re in control
But the fear inside my head
Says something different to my soul

Only you can stop this noise
Come and drown out all my doubt
And let me hear your voice

I’m ashamed to even ask
It’s been underlined
You have told me before
But I’m asking you one more time

"The Angel Song"

"The Angel Song"


In the chill of the night
While the moon gently sleeps
I wander in silence
On snow-laden streets
As I gaze into sunsets
Over silhouette mountains
I am amazed that
The God who made all this, made me

As my eyes were open
I began to believe
The mystery of Christmas
Was truly revealed
A great host of angels
Came calling to me
Taking me back to the pure sacred peace

[Chorus]
Singing la, la, lalala, lalalala, lalalalalala
There's a savior born to us today
Singing la, la, lalala, lalalala, lalalalalala
The Messiah, Christ the Lord

In the light of the angels
Surrounding my soul
I know for certain
I'm never alone
Now let all of your children
Feel the love that you gave
And in honor of you give it away

[Chorus]

"The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)"

"The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting On An Open Fire)"


Chestnuts roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at your nose
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir
And folks dressed up like Eskimos

Everybody knows a turkey and some
Mistletoe help to make the season bright
Tiny tots with their eyes all aglow
Will find it hard to sleep tonight

They know that Santa's on his way
He's loaded lots of toys and goodies
On his sleigh
And ev'ry mother's
Child is gonna spy to see if
Reindeer really know how to fly

And so, I'm offering this
Simple phrase to kids from
One to ninety-two
Altho' it's been said many times
Many ways
Merry Christmas to you

"The First Noel"

"The First Noel"


The First Noel
The angels did say
Was to certain
Poor shepherds
In fields as they lay
In fields where they may
Keeping their sheep
On a cold winter's night
That was so deep
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

They looked up
And saw a star
Shining in the East
Beyond them far
And to the Earth
It gave great light
And so it continued
Both day and night
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

Then entered
In those Wise men three
Full reverently
Upon their knee
And offered there
In His presence
Their gold and myrrh
And frankincense
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel
Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel
Born
Is the King of Israel

"The Real Me"

"The Real Me"


People think I've got it all together
With the show of my sweet, sweet smile
But do they know if I've been happy ever
Pull up a chair 'cause this may take a while
Okay, so here's the thing

I've got my bad days
And some are even worse
I can be a blessing
And you know, I can be a curse

I tremble at rejection
I'm scared to be alone
Sometimes I may be selfish
But I always make it home

[CHORUS]
This is the real me
Am I the girl that you want me to be
This is the real me
With flaws and fears of intimacy
This is the real me

Can you face it
Can you feel it
Can you take it
Can you deal with
The real me

So now you see that I am far from perfect
I will fall and I will make mistakes
But I am here and this has taken courage
Will you abandon me or will you stay

I know that I'm demanding
And sometimes insecure
I think I've got the answers
But then I'm not so sure

I sometimes need attention
A little more than I should
But there is a part of me
That give the whole world if I could

[CHORUS]

Now that I've gone and let you in
And I no longer will pretend
Will you please still be my friend

[CHORUS]

"The Sound Of Your Voice"

"The Sound Of Your Voice"


You spoke and light came to be
You spoke and carved out the sea
You stretched out the heavens
Holding the stars in their place
You spoke a marvelous plan
You spoke, breathed life into man
Creation displaying your beauty in wondrous
array

The sound of your voice echoes forever
The sound of your voice holds us together
There’s nothing more powerful
Nothing more glorious
Than the sound of your voice

You speak calling my name
You speak and I’m never the same
How my heart thrills
As you whisper away all my fear
You speak of a kingdom to come
You speak of an army of love
Who’ll go to the nations inviting the broken to
hear
Come and hear…

And down through the ages
A melody races
It chases the darkness away
For all who will listen
There’s hope and forgiveness
In love that has conquered the grave

"Thief Of Always"

"Thief Of Always"


Before the winter chill has gone,
The springtime rivers rise.
Before the setting sun has disappeared,
The moon is rising high.
And time waits for no man;
Seasons come and go.
In the midst of an ever-changing world,
This one thing I know:

You've got to live every moment
As though it was your last,
Before the thief of always
Steals tomorrow from your grasp.
Before the chance to know His love
Has somehow passed you by,
Let your heart reach out, right here, right now,
For the Lord to touch your life.

Before the trees have shed
Their autumn gold to leave the barest bark,
The frost beneath our feet will sparkle bright,
Like crystals under the sky.
And time waits for no man;
Seasons come and go.
In the midst of an ever-changing world,
This one thing I know:

You've got to live every moment
As though it was your last,
Before the thief of always
Steals tomorrow from your grasp.
Before the chance to know His love
Has somehow passed you by,
Let your heart reach out, right here, right now,
For the Lord to touch your life.

Don't ever doubt that God can lift us high.
Allow the flame of Heaven to be our guide.

Live every moment
As though it was your last,
Before the thief of always
Steals tomorrow from your grasp.
Before the chance to know His love
Has somehow passed you by,
Let your heart reach out, right here, right now,
For the Lord to touch your life. Oh...
