Can't even remember where I put them. I need you Jesus, I need you more than anything. It'd been some time since you changed that water to wine. She is a stargazer. She loves to look up into the night. I've seen it all, but now I wanna see your face. Even in your roughest times you won't be overcome. I can hear a growl. I wanna tuck my tail and head home. Your love keeps no record, of the love I can't let go of. But it's difficult to catch my breath. I've been going so hard, trying to flee the dark. The sky's been torn and the moon is red. The world will soon be engulfed by grace. Well, he'd always been a traveler and a seeker of something better. |
And so there's only, yeah, there's only so much we get to give Yeah, He is the only thing I want to see From out of nowhere from out of the blue, these clouds like holy prophets groan and move She asked me how I'd change this world And don't You ever let me see too much And he'd sing I, I don't know much But I know a Love Because I, I can't get my broken heart to mend I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live, I don't wanna live, don't wanna live without You, Lord My Deliverer is coming - my Deliverer is standing by Maybe someday soon now I'll leave the world behind I'm alive and I'm livin' In a place where the world's crust has shifted You are right here with us, I guess that's why Your called Emmanuel And I know the smallest stone can sometimes cause, A wave to grow and cross the ocean But I'm livin' in a world that's upside down, and blessed are the poor in spirit Yeah when you love, you are gonna to find peace Yeah, He chose to make us His home, So how can we house Him And I've heard You take care of the birds, As you watch over all the matters of this world Yeah, here's my soul, do with it what You want, 'Cause I don't even know what I need And the night is so black, And the sky is so big Yeah, renew my soul like that green grass on the prairies I'm sure you smile a lot more than you ever did before And with the kingdom at hand, We search for that, That never lasts, Sometimes this world, It spins so fast, I think I might fall off 'Cause you have everything, There's nothing you could ever need. So take the wheel, take me wherever you want. Just lead me home. I've run dry, so let the water flow. I've grown cold inside and only you can warm my soul Consumed with the truth, you started turning tables. If her faith starts wearing thin, she don't hide. If I could just be with you, Lord, it would take my breath away. So now don't you let your heart be troubled. The peace I bring to you is not of this world So I won't be afraid now when he shows his teeth again. And I would fly without looking down, and feel your light shining all around me. My heart caves in. I'm far from rustproof. Darkness turns to light, death turns to life. Just a little glimpse of heaven is the one thing he hoped he'd get. |
