I Know You 03:52
My soul, it shines through my eyes And you can see the part of me I'm so desperate to hide It’s the heaviness of heart that brings me down, down, down My body shakes, the Spirit aches and all my senses hit the ground But I promise you I’m gonna change As of today I’m yours all yours I promise You I’m gonna change There’s no one but myself to blame ‘cause I know you are the Remedy and I know you are the Hope in me and I know you always love me and You’ve always believed in me Your light, it shines through my soul And I will find that what was broken has somehow been made whole It’s the pride of my own heart that brings me down, down, down My body shakes, the Spirit aches, and all my senses hit the ground You have always believed in me You have always believed, yeah You have always believed in me You have al-always believed No you never gave up on me, whoa oh I can't believe, no I can't believe You've always loved me, you never gave up You've always believed in me

Listen 04:37
Speak Lord and let me listen to Your word The timbre of Your voice is the sweetest I have heard Shine Lord and let me sit here in Your light The depth of my weakness is made perfect in Your might Move Lord and draw me to Your side Fill me with the thoughts and cares that burden Your own mind Take this world and make it Yours Make me less and make You more ‘cause My heart’s too weak to carry all the burdens of this world and My hands too tired and weary I’m just a simple man, a simple man So fill this empty person with love beyond compare If only I could listen If only I could listen, the treasure I’d find there How You love me, I will never know How You love me, I will never know If only I could listen

Halfway Home 04:33
You’ll go greater places than where you are today You’ll sing greater songs than the melodies of yesterday You’ll find greater treasures than the things that you’ve been sold And the darkest night will remind you That your faith alone will help guide your way back home So enough with the maybes ‘Cause your new life is waiting And you’ll find that hesitating won’t get you halfway home Won’t get you halfway home You’ll find truer friends than the ones who turned their backs You’ll gain all the courage to make up for all you lack You’ll learn of the secret that the weak and humble know That the darkest night will remind you Of the faith alone that helps guide your way back home I reach out with my faith for what I cannot see I reach out with both hands for a glimpse of majesty I reach out with my faith to live what I believe That all it takes is a touch and I am freed So I’m done with the maybes ‘Cause my new life is waiting And I’ve found that hesitating won’t get me halfway home Won’t get me halfway home You’ll learn of the secret that the weak and humble know That the darkest night will remind you that your faith alone will help guide Your way back home Only faith will bring you home Yes your faith will bring you home

Life is choices I've been making some bad ones lately Spit in your face Then I wonder just why you hate me How about humility in my daily conversation When's the last time I asked you what's truly going on Only think about what I'm doing Don't care what you're going through And maybe it's my fault Well I know that it's my fault But I'm coming down I'm coming back to you Hitting the ground ‘Cause I don't wanna lose you Coming down I'm coming back to you Hitting the ground ‘Cause I don't wanna lose you And I can't stand to lose you again Caught in a snare Bad habits that keep on breaking Your poor heart can't handle all of the stress it's taking Only think about what I'm doing Don't care what you're going through And maybe it's my fault Well of course it's all my fault 'Cause I don't wanna lose you And I can't stand to lose you And I promise I won't lose you again

Rocked 03:04
Lights go out Can’t be stopped I’m about to get rocked and hit the bottom again I’ve been so unimpressed with this life I don’t know, I don’t know just where to begin I need lows, I need highs, I need more in my life I need more, if nothing else I need time to become who I’m trying to be And maybe in time I hope that you’ll see It’s still me, I’m still here I’m still full of the same old fears So rock me, please rock me to sleep tonight And don’t turn out the light When did we start to run from the truth Like we couldn’t be found, like we’re bulletproof Can’t get enough out of life so we add what we like But we still, yeah we still feel empty inside But you know, yeah you know what to do But you act, yeah you act like you don’t have a clue But it’s all plain to see, yeah it’s no mystery But there’s no going back, and I’m so glad I’m still me, I’m still here I’m still full of the same old fears So hold me, please hold me tonight And don’t turn out the light Don’t turn out the light
6.
Time hits hard Oh but we’ll strike back with love ‘cause it’s all that we’ve got But that’s a lot, yeah Put down your fears, pick up your dreams ‘Cause without dreaming all hope is lost Keep on moving closer to me We’re not there but someday we’re gonna be Time may turn us gray but together we’re not alone We’ll take these memories and make them a home These just might be our best years yet These just might be our best years yet Hope is found where you least expect it In the strangest and most desperate place Amazing Grace You’ve got a choice You can be great and be grateful for every step of the way
7.
Can’t sleep, eat, think or breathe Can’t talk about it I try but the circles in my head run all around it Can’t see the end of this attraction Can’t seem to keep myself from asking After all of this how could it all end up the same We went in opposite directions from the one we tried to blame Letters in the doorway Flowers in her hair Bittersweet reminders of things no longer there I hear the sound of your voice in conversations I look but it’s only in my imagination Can’t see the end of this addiction Can’t seem to keep myself from thinking I’m picking up the pieces from the mess you left inside The gardens that you planted have all died

5,000 04:00
You lost your faith in me Gave up so easily And now I’m stuck here with these holes in both my hands But when’s the last time that you ate And why do you stay up so late It starts with rumbling and then tumbling and it doesn’t go away Oh come and eat with me You’ve been starving for too long I can see it in your face Oh come and eat with me I can take a single loaf and feed the world You lost your faith in yourself too There was a time when there was nothing you couldn’t do And now you’re stuck here with this hole inside your soul But when’s the last that you prayed Or had anything good to say It starts with mumbling and then grumbling and it doesn’t go away So bring your loaves And bring your fish And I will multiply Oh come and eat with me I can take a single loaf and feed the world
9.
We make our plans and steady our hands To hold the things we’ve made We’re so impressed that we forget To number our days The shadows are shifting Like melodies drifting Through grass that will wither and fade Oh death With our last breath what will we say He said He’s coming Right where He left off Just as He stepped out of the tomb Anthems of angels Clouds of the morning Without any warning He’s coming soon He’s coming soon Can’t quite remember where we left off As you stepped off of the plane It’s always little things that keep changing While the big things stay the same
10.
You’ll go greater places than where you are today You’ll sing greater songs than the melodies of yesterday You’ll find greater treasures than the things that you’ve been sold And the darkest night will remind you That your faith alone will help guide your way back home So enough with the maybes ‘Cause your new life is waiting And you’ll find that hesitating won’t get you halfway home Won’t get you halfway home You’ll find truer friends than the ones who turned their backs You’ll gain all the courage to make up for all you lack You’ll learn of the secret that the weak and humble know That the darkest night will remind you Of the faith alone that helps guide your way back home I reach out with my faith for what I cannot see I reach out with both hands for a glimpse of majesty I reach out with my faith to live what I believe That all it takes is a touch and I am freed So I’m done with the maybes ‘Cause my new life is waiting And I’ve found that hesitating won’t get me halfway home Won’t get me halfway home You’ll learn of the secret that the weak and humble know That the darkest night will remind you that your faith alone will help guide Your way back home Only faith will bring you home Yes your faith will bring you home
