Every time you look at me Your eyes betray what no one sees I wonder if you know I feel it too We laugh, we talk, you touch my hand You tell me I’m a real good friend And I can’t say these words I’m longing to There’s just one problem My heart cannot believe You’re holding hands with her Instead of holding me I’ll tell the moon that I love you Whisper your name into the wind When my heart can’t stand this achin’ Wondering how or where or when Wish I could say these things I’m feelin’ But there’s nowhere to begin So I’ll tell the moon, I’ll tell the moon Since I can’t tell you Do I dare to bare my soul Let you in, lose control Would that be the end of something good How can something so right be wrong If I wait will you be gone Forever leaving love misunderstood I know one day that what exists won’t be denied You’ll pull me close and I’ll forgive you For these tears I’ve cried

Today my little girl crawled up into my lap Laid her head upon my shoulder and then began to ask “Mama, why is my friend sick, what makes the sky blue? What will I be when I grow up? Will I still live with you?” As I held her in my arms, I prayed she’d understand… I don’t know why bad things have to happen I don’t know how the river finds the sea I don’t know if I’ll always be here with you I don’t know where the path you take will lead Just hold on baby girl, hold on tight To the hope of heaven Then she crawled down off my lap, her Daddy took her off to bed And I sat there and wondered if she’d remember what I’d said And then I saw a picture in my mind that seemed so far away But when I closed my eyes, I could hear my mother say I don’t know why bad things have to happen I don’t know how the river finds the sea I don’t know if I’ll always be here with you I don’t know where the path you take will lead But what I do know to be true is Jesus loves you What I do know to be real is that He is always there And all the pain and tears you’ll face in life You can lay right at his feet ‘Cause the God who made you is a God who cares So when you’re filled with sorrow or with doubt And it seems more than you can bear Just hold on baby girl, hold on tight To the hope of heaven

Just As I Am 03:09
This love’s a mystery You’ve paid to ransom me Just as I am without one plea Oh Lamb of God I come Beneath the heavens caught But saved, redeemed, and bought Just as I am and waiting not Oh Lamb of God I come I come, unworthy Just as I am is all You want So Lamb of God I come When weary and worn-out I’ll give a praiseful shout Just as I am though tossed about Oh Lamb of God I come My heart, my soul, my mind No good in me to find Just as I am poor, wretched, blind Oh Lamb of God I come I come, unworthy Just as I am is all You want So Lamb of God I come When nothing’s left in me I have this guarantee Just as I am, You will receive Oh Lamb of God, I come I’ll rest in You alone For this is not my home Just as I am, Thy love unknown Oh Lamb of God I come I come, unworthy Just as I am is all You want So Lamb of God I come I come, unworthy Just as I am is all You want So Lamb of God I come I come

You’re everywhere and everything I can hear You whispering again How I long to see Your face and know That You are here I feel Your spirit beckon me Beyond my senses I can see a place Glimpses of amazing love and Your Redeeming grace There’s a part of me that wanders free out in the wind I can’t help but wonder if It’s like this The rain that falls, the sun that’s beating down upon my skin You’re touching me, You’re whisperin’ It’s like this You’re in the laughter of a child You’re in the way a stranger smiles at me You’re all around, oh you surround Though I cannot see You’re in the thunder of a storm You’re in the breaking of the dawn each day I can close my eyes and find You now And hear You say

You Are 03:32
I’m here again, storm’s closing in Can taste the rain, can feel the wind Afraid to move, ‘cause I can’t see The very next step in front of me Are You stronger, are You higher When the gale winds blow Tossed to and fro Are You deeper, are You wider As the rains pour down On sinking ground When the storm sets in and I’m lost again And the clouds have blocked my view Are You? This world is loud, it tunes You out You whisper soft, I wish You’d shout I need to know if You are there ‘Cause it feels like I’m talkin’ into the air You walked this earth, You came and died And rose to bridge this great divide You faced my fears, You know my pain Wept these same tears I’m cryin’ and felt the rain You are stronger, You are higher When the gale winds blow Tossed to and fro You are deeper, You are wider As the rains pour down On sinking ground You gave Calvary so that I could see Thru the storm and to the stars You are You are

Walk On 03:08
I’ve watched you grow from babe to boy A mother’s love runs deep So much I want for you to know As days and minutes creep I see you as you find your way Within this great big place I know you’ll have both times of joy And heartache yet to face I know I don’t have long I’ll blink, and you’ll be gone Walk on, walk on Step sure, be strong Walk on, walk on Into a man of God Son, walk on I hope you reach up for the stars But keep your feet upon the ground When trouble comes across your path Be brave and don’t back down I pray you’ll love with all you are Don’t leave your heart upon a shelf When this world tells you who to be Just be true to yourself Remember how small you are, but live big Love deep and follow your heart, but don’t lose your head And when it’s dark, get still enough to hear His voice You’re not alone Walk on, walk on Step sure, be strong Walk on, walk on I know I don’t have long to say

Can You see me? Do You hear me cry? Do You know my fear? I don’t feel You, I can’t hear Your voice, but I know You’re here When the storm clouds o’er me roll Jesus come and hold my soul Be my shelter from the storm Be my center, be my home I’ll hide in You When troubles all around me rage You provide a dwelling place I’ll hide in You My Strong Refuge When courage fails me, You lead through waters deep, I’m afraid to move My heart falters, I’m at the end of me, there I’ll stand in You When the storm clouds o’er me roll Jesus come and hold my soul I keep strugglin’ on in my own might But this battle isn’t mine to fight Jesus, help me to be still and know that You are God
