You be the light
You be the light
A city set on a hill can't be hidden
You be the light
You be the light
You be the light
May those who hurt you be forgiven
You be the light
Let all see, the good you do
Let all wanna be and act to be just like you
Let all feel, that they're loved, too
Let 'em all share the kind of joy they never knew
You be the light
You be the light
A city set on a hill can't be hidden
You be the light
You be the light
You be the light
Remember the words we were given
You be the light
Am C Am
Whatever is hidden, is meant to be disclosed
Am C G
Whatever is secret will be exposed

A better son
03:16
|

He ran for nothing but he ran for me
I was coming home a better son to be
He saw me from afar and he opened his heart
Thanking God above we were no longer apart
I was raised on that same land the son of a rich man
But I thought the world had more for me - so I ran
My father gave me money, his love and his name
I took the money, spent it then the famine came
And I saw the errors of my way
My father’s servants never knew a sky of grey
I sinned against my father when I ran away
Now I wish to be his servant if he’ll let me stay
I left for home hoping he’d take me in his employ
In the broken man, he saw his little boy
Moved by compassion he took me in his embrace
And his love gave chase to my disgrace
But my faithful brother who’d always been by his side
He who never cheated, never left and never lied
He thought my father should not kill the calf and celebrate
After all my actions lead to my current state
But my father said
He saw the errors of his way
But today is a most beautiful day
Sometimes our own storms runs our ship aground
He was truly lost and now he’s found

Let love and faithfulness never leave you…
C Am
Write them on the tablet of your heart.
Your heart knows what is best and what is true…
So make your life a work of art
Be the love in a world more lost than found
Be the love when you hurt, when you drown
Have faith and be, saved and sound.
Saved and sound
Let us not love in word or talk
But in deed and in truth.
Let's not run out the clock
We'll run out of youth
The hardships always come and go
But His love continues to grow
You loved Him a long time ago
Open your heart and let it flow
Be the love in a world more lost than found
Be the love when you hurt, when you drown
Have faith and be, saved and sound.
Saved and sound

Open your heart to love

she asks me if my life makes sense today
she asks me when's the last time i bowed my head - and prayed
she said I don't have to go it alone
Get ready for the fullest love ever known, ever known
She asks me if I have an open heart
If I want to go on just like that or if I want a fresh start
The Father claims you as one of His own
Get ready for the fullest love ever known, ever known
Open your heart to love,
Open your heart to love,
Open your heart to love, today
Oh Father I want You in this heart of mine
I seek your wisdom please show me a sign
Oh I bow down in front of Your throne
I'm ready for the fullest love ever known

She tells me about a world where love is king
She tells me about a place where angels sing
Aw they sing, for the King of kings
She tells me my life can still stand for something
It's all about the heart I'm ready to bring
Oh I wanna bring it, for the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble and I crumble I stay humble
When I feel the love of the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble when I'm trouble, I feel it double in my heart
The love of the King of kings
I read His words and I can't help thinking
I want the hate inside me to be shrinking
And my love to grow for the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble and I crumble I stay humble
When I feel the love of the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble when I'm trouble, I feel it double in my heart
The love of the King of kings
The love of the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble and I crumble I stay humble
When I feel the love of the King of kings
Sometimes I stumble when I'm trouble, I feel it double in my heart
The love of the King of kings
The love of the King of kings
The love of the King of kings

Imagine the love

Imagine the love in your heart
It’d take to give up your only son
To give us all a fresh start
To tell us love has just begun
Imagine the love far and wide
It takes to erase all our sins
The times we cheated and lied
The times we took Truth for a spin
I see Him with an open heart
I see Him with soothing words
He doesn’t want us to stand apart
He wants us as part of His world
Imagine the love in your eyes
When you feel His kindness in your soul
No more anger to disguise
No more losing control
Imagine the love you could feel
If you opened your heart to Him
Imagine the blessings, so real
Your heart would be full to the brim
Take my hand

Dm C
Show me a love so pure
Dm C
Tell me how can you be so sure
G7
That a son will be born
He will die and be mourned
Only to be reborn
Only to be reborn
Show me a grace so true
Show me the blood shed for me and you
Well a son was born
He died and was mourned
Only to be reborn
Only to be reborn
F
Show me the cross
G
Tell me the loss
Dm
Why did a father have to see
G7
His son die for you and me
Show me a peace so deep
That we can all finally sleep
Cause a son was born
He died and was mourned
Only to be reborn
Only to be reborn

Never alone

There are trips you take and there are trips that take you
The bigger the lie, the more it's true
Nothing in the trunk, nothing to my name
But a vague memory sprinkled with your shame
Sleepy dreamless nights spent in the backseat
Curled up with my thought of escaping the heat
Looking at the stars and wondering which one
Will be the last one I see when it's all said and done
But I'm never alone
My guilt is my friend and it sits on my throne
Up early the next day, the road is calling
When you face your destiny there's no stalling
It's all about salvation about redeeming my soul
As I keep on driving clear cross the dust bowl
I see a lot of people but I don't meet anyone
I'm just driving down the road till I run out of sun
Mile after mile, town after town
Just keeping my head straight and the hammer down
But I'm never alone
My guilt is my friend and it sits on my throne
Haven't had a drink in a month of Sundays
Trying to stay clear from my own evil ways
A day will come again when I can sip a few
But for now I have a lease on life to renew
Born again this morning I'll be dead by sunset
All covered in sin and a cold, cold sweat
One more day of driving in my stolen Cadillac
And I'll close my eyes on this world of black.
But I'm never alone
My guilt is my friend and it sits on my throne
The preacher tipped me back and the river took me in
I am clear of all guilt, i am clean of all sin
I might stick around and make a few friends
Yeah I might stick around and make my amends
But I'm never alone
The Lord is my friend and He sits on my throne
