"Hero"

"Hero"



I, I wanna follow like a shadow
I don’t need no one to see me, I just wanna chase You down
I, I wanna trail like an echo
I don’t need no one to hear me, I just wanna make You loud
I’m about one name, one life, one story
I’m alive to bring You glory
You took my blame and You paid the debt I owed
I’m gonna lay me down to lift You up
You’re the only king in the kingdom come
If I live, if I die, my life will show
You’re my hero
Light shattering the darkness
Taking up a cross, You reached beyond my brokenness
Love overturning all the heartache
Taking on a grave, leaving death powerless
You took the nails
I’m forgiven
Cleared my name
Every sin is
Washed away
It is finished
You’re the reason I am free
I’m about Your name, Your life, Your story
You are who You say You are
The evidence is in my heart

"His Eye Is On The Sparrow"

"His Eye Is On The Sparrow"



Why should I be discouraged, why should the shadows come,
Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heaven and home,
When Jesus is my portion? My constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;

And I sing because I'm happy,
And I sing because I'm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

"Let not your heart be troubled," His tender word I hear,
And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears;

And I sing because I'm happy,
And I sing because I'm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see;
His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me;

And I sing because I'm happy,
And I sing because I'm free,
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.
For His eye is on the sparrow,
And I know He watches me.

"Hold On Tight"

"Hold On Tight"


I see the neon lights
As they light the city sky
I see a desperate boy
At the monment that he cries
I see him reaching out
His hand is to the sky
I'm telling you don't let go
God is on your side

[Chorus]
Hold on tight, never let Him go
Hold on tight, hold on

I feel the innocence
He's washed my sins away
I'm not afraid of the future now
His will is here to stay
Reach out and hold on tight
He's with you all the time
I'm telling you don't let go
God is on our side

[Repeat Chorus]

Keep on reaching out to Him
He's with you all the time
Don't ever let go
God is on your side

[Chorus]

"Holy Holy Holy"

"Holy Holy Holy"



Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
Early in the morning my song shall rise to thee.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee,
casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy

Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity.

You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy
You are holy, holy, holy

"I Am Free"

"I Am Free"


Through you the blind will see
Through you the mute will sing
Through you the dead will rise
Through you all hearts will praise
Through you the darkness flees
Through you my heart screams
I am free

I AM FREE TO RUN
(I AM FREE TO RUN)
I AM FREE TO DANCE

I AM FREE TO LIVE FOR YOU

Through you the battle's won
Through you I'm not afraid
Through you the price is paid
Through you there's victory
Because of you my heart sings
I am free
Yes, I am free

[Repeat Chorus]

WHO THE SON SETS FREE-IS FREE INDEED
(WHO THE SON SETS FREE)

"I Am Second"

"I Am Second"



There's a me that I don't really like
A me that says I'm
In control til the day that I die
And I dont know why
I push I pull I fight I fall
I end up crawling back to
That place where I figure it out
That I, that I, that I

I'M SECOND TO ONE
REDEEMER, THE WAY, THE LIGHT
I'M SECOND TO ONE
THE SAVIOR
NO COMPROMISE
I'M LAYING EVERYTHING
AT THE FOOT OF THE CROSS
MY PRIDE, MY LIFE, MY ALL
I AM SECOND TO ONE
AND HE IS SECOND TO NONE

There's a change when I swallow my pride
And I surrender
There's a peace when I open my eyes
Cuz I remember
To live's to die
To fall's to rise
To kneel's to find the Savior
Here I am and I've figured it out
Tonight tonight tonight...

He said "You come alive
When you lose your life"
so I lay it down
Yeah I surrender all

"I Cannot Get You Out Of My System"

"I Cannot Get You Out Of My System"


Oi. Boy. Got a new gig?
It's jammin' your brain
like a too-tight wig.
Stuff this new religious phase.
Your home is here
in the yellow haze.

Oi. Boy. What are you doin'?
Wearing your faith like a new tattoo when friends and formers
don't approve this.

(Steelo pads will not remove this.)

[Chorus]
I cannot get you, I do not want
you out of my system.
I cannot get you, I do not want you
out of my head.

Oi. Boy. What are you on?
We'd try to help you but you're
too far gone.
First we thought you'd be rejecting us.
Now we're scared you'll start infecting us.

Oi. Boy. Come again.
Someday soon it'll all sink in,
as all your efforts to inspire us
spread like some computer virus.

[Chorus]

Always stalled by hidden fears,
always stuck in neutral gears
until I gave the driver's seat away.
Take my life and make it real.
Turn the key and take the wheel.
Push the throttle through the floor,
evermore...

[Chorus]

"I Got Your Number"

"I Got Your Number"


I got your number
Where love can be found
I got your number
Where truth can be found
I asked you in one day
And you came into my life
I got your number
For the rest of my life

[Chorus:]
I can feel your love
Flowing out to me
Each day and night
I can see clearly now
I see your eyes in the starry skies
I can feel your life flowing out to me
With each breath I take
I can see clearly now
Your Spirit has shown me the perfect way

I got your number
And I'm happy to say
You set my heart on fire
With every move you make
When you walk into a room
It lights up with your grace
I got your number now
It's the hot line to your place

[Repeat Chorus]

[Bridge:]
You say you say you want
You say you say you want
You say you say you want to be free.

You want you want you want
You want you want you want
You want you want you want to be free.

You can you can you can
You can you can you can
You can you can you can be free.

I got your number
It's written deep within my heart
You filled that emptiness
And lighted up a new part
There's much more to life
Than other numbers on the wall
I got you number
It's burning deep within my soul

[Repeat Chorus]

"I Love Your Ways"

"I Love Your Ways"


They shine like dawn on an open Psalm
A knowing smile from something You said
I hunger for the daily bread of Your ways
Ah, the bread of Your ways
They glow like blue in a field of black
Illuminating the runway ahead
I love to follow the angel tread of Your ways
Ah, the tread of Your ways

[Chorus:]
I love Your ways (Your true, Your perfect ways)
I love Your ways (so beautiful to me)
Lovely always (and faithful to restore)
I love Your ways

And when I tire, they bring a second wind
A word in season, a gleam in Your eye
I love to feel the runner's high of Your ways
Ah, the high of Your ways
I lived so long under basement floors
The flickering lights, the windowless gloom
I'm here to stay in the upper room of Your ways
Ah, the room of Your ways

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
I need Your good word speaking
When there's nothing to say
I need Your Spirit here
Breathing on me every day
Every night I need Your love's pure light
And I've learned forever to trust
Ever to follow
Ever I'll praise Your everlasting ways
(Your everlasting ways
Your everlasting ways)

[Chorus]
I love Your ways

"I Surrender All"

"I Surrender All"



I surrender all
To the promises you made
And I will give it all
To the maker of the day

No one knows your heart
And no one knows your fears
When no one solves the mysteries
Or even wipes away the tears

Can you hear the sound of laughter
From the other side of life?
There are days when I feel like a stranger sometimes
Tell me, are there any other fools like me?

This reliance on another world
Has a great effect on this world
This conscience of another world
Has a great effect on
Grace recollection

He doesn't love us 'cause of who we are
He only loves us 'cause of who he is

We all were children once
So will we return
So let those days return
Let us all return ...
