This doesn’t happen to me. I’m supposed to be the strong one. I’m suppose to be free. I’m not supposed to be long gone. When did I become so very weak? When did my strength begin to fail? When did all my strength desert me? When did I become so frail? I don’t remember the moment, when it all began to change. All I know is the world is different And it all seems so strange. When did I give in to temptation? When did these wounds begin to bleed? When did I get lost in transgression? When did my senses begin to flee? I hate what I’ve become now, This empty shadow of myself The trouble is I don’t know how

Where do we go when the journey is over? Where do we step when the next one's unclear? How do we move forward When the path ahead is blurred by tears? And when is it time to say goodbye To those who've walked by our sides? What is the right road to walk When there are a million to choose? I've walked passed you a million times But never really stopped to look Can you forgive my aching heart The number of beats that it took To realize my home is in your eyes And that we're looking for the next sunrise What we do when our world is changing Defines who we are for this next chapter So make your choices wisely Don't be afraid to take a risk Beca

I am far away from home Across rivers deep and oceans wide But once more home I am going I will reach the other side Far away I have travelled To lands majestic, old, and ancient Of sights I've seen a few But my family's impatient The mountains, they are singing A song that echoes within my soul And unless my heart should sing it back to them My soul can never be whole Oh to home I am going Though the journey will take a little while I've begun to miss my mother's kiss And my father's warm and welcome smile The journey will be long And the paths, they will wind But when I reach the end My home will I find The mountains they are singing A

I used to think that being strong Meant never showing weakness I used to the think growing up Meant hiding all the bruises But now I know that strength Is only found in weakness Now I see that growing up Means sharing how you're feeling And though you're far away I'll dream of you tonight And think I hear you say “I'm here” I'll hold you in my arms Until the night is gone And when the morning comes And you are far from here I'll miss you I used to think that chasing dreams Meant looking out for me I used to think that everything Was about taking what you need But now I know that dreaming Only happens when we're together Now I se

I won't ever be The perfect boyfriend. I won't always have The right words to say To stop the flow of tears Or provide comfort in fears. I won't always act in love. I won't ever be The perfect man. I won't always have A fix for every problem. There will be times When my strength is not enough. I know you're not An angel sent from heaven. There are times when We are both all too human. But more often There are moments When I can see heaven In your eyes. I know you're not A damsel to be rescued. You're far to strong For me to rescue you. But there are some dragons That you will let me face. We are not going to be The perfect couple Because

I don't think anyone who is not experiencing heart break right in that instant truly understands it. Time mutes the emotion in such a way That you don't remember the exact feeling Of the crushed glass heart in your chest, When every moment is a test of courage, Will you break down or won't you? The distance that time puts between you and the damage Allows you to view it with perspective, But there is a certain give which is required for that distance. The depth and breadth of the effects of damage Are replaced with a calm clarity about the hows, whys and whats. The immediacy of the emotion is lost forever. And perhaps, that's for

God of yesterday God of tomorrow Be my God today Because I need you now God of my childhood I feel my faith dying I'm tired of trying To be good God of my future How can I be sure How can I trust you How can I seek you God of yesterday God of tomorrow Be my God today Because I need you now God in my living Please keep me breathing I keep on searching God in my dying My heart is still crying What solace you bring God of yesterday God of tomorrow Be my God today Because I need you now God in my trusting Keep me from lusting For temporal things God in my fearing help me keep learning help me keep looking And my h

In the desert of transgression I have walked alone Rejecting all your plans for me I've followed all my own But the desert's getting larger I've wandered far from you Lord, I need your presence now Your servant calls to you Lord come rescue me I need your mercy Lord come forgive me Your grace is what I need Lord save me The paths that I have followed Have led me to this place Surrounded by my vice And evil in my face With sinking sand beneath my feet And the waters crashing in Lord I need your grace Because I'm drowning in my sin Lord come rescue me I need your mercy Lord come forgive me Your grace is what I need Lord

You stare out the window Watching the world pass you by Why don't you move into action As you long to inside Where is the love that you claim For those you don't know What of the nails? The ones in you Saviour's hands What of the pain? The pain on your Saviour's Face What of the crown? The one on your Saviour's brow What of the blood That He poured out? Living your life as you choose Never thinking beyond Everything that you want Chasing shadows and dreams All of those temporal things Will pass away What of the nails? The ones in you Saviour's hands What of the pain? The pain on your Saviour's Face What of the crown?
